Take all your fears, anxieties, feelings of insecurity, the 'not good enough,' and if you have any, the grandiose cover-ups of imaginary greatness in hate, and wrap them up tightly with strings of hope to box them up to send to the Lord.

Now, whether you believe in the Lord or not, focus on your fruit of the Spirit (love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness to the Lord, or higher-deeper goodness, gentleness, and self-control). These qualities are contained within every individual at birth.

For we are all children of God, our Lord. Our bodies are the temples of the Holy Spirit; therefore, within us is the fruit of the Spirit. No one is born without this fruit.

If we practice ruthlessness, we proceed to destroy the fruit of the Spirit and our humanity, to the point where, over time, we become extremely poor in spirit or dead in spirit.

Is there wisdom in aggression? No. Negative feelings of ruthlessness and hate are not signs of intelligence. Will destroying our fruit of the Spirit, our humanity, eliminate all weaknesses? Or address the true weaknesses of ignorance, fear, and insecurities?

No. On the contrary, destroying the fruit of the Spirit will create insatiable desires, leading to grandiose delusions of power and sin.

Only someone who feels inferior would abuse others to try to feel superior. If there is genuine self-confidence, there would be no need or desire to feel superior.

And if we pursue perfection, we place ourselves in a box of idealized delusion and facade, never changing, nurturing, or growing in the fruit of the Spirit, which transcends and reaches towards infinite excellence.

Because nothing is perfect, you will develop within yourself a sense of never being good enough. Is there perfection in love? No. Love is an emotion, not a confined intellectual construct.

Any reality or delusion not leading to heaven and salvation is nonsense, untrue, and most likely unholy.

Now, check the box of packaged fears, anxieties, feelings of insecurity, the 'not good enough,' and grandiose cover-ups of imaginary greatness in hate.

See if all the roots of brokenness are included in these packages. Lift the box to the Lord, and sincerely, humbly, and gratefully ask for help with spiritual healing and the restoration of the fruit of the Spirit.

There is the here and now and the yet to be, and the after at the close, beyond, in the ethereal eternity.  

Conquest made in the material world through sinful acts leads to damnation at the close of life for all of eternity.

If short-sighted, especially when imprisoned by sins, ruled by power trips, then love is lost and the soul is the cost.  

 

✝️

There can be no discipline of integrity and honor without justice.

Therefore, seek not revenge, but justice in atonement.

Connections with the Holy Spirit are unrelated to unholy practices.

Consequently, abusive acts are incompatible with the enlightenment derived from positive inspiration.

For instance, when one slaps another in the face, the recipient predominantly experiences pain, rather than inspiration or the inclination to speak, aside from perhaps using expletives.

Torture is ineffective for all individuals. Inflicting torture to obtain information that has not yet been acquired constitutes a crime against humanity, an excessive exertion of force, and a form of cruel and unusual treatment, driven by extreme ignorance and foolishness.

Furthermore, have you ever participated in a sport while injured? Merely enduring pain to achieve a score does not imply that the injury contributed to the success.

In truth, an injury impedes performance and acts as an obstacle rather than an aid. Often, injuries become so severe that participation in the sport becomes impossible.

Inflicting pain and suffering through injuries is entirely unhelpful and constitutes a crime against humanity.

 

The Art of War was written over 2,500 years ago by Sun Tzu. Since then, modern warfare and strategies have advanced significantly, especially with the advent of the digital age.  

Though some of the strategic concepts remain timeless, such as 

Subdue Without Combat: The highest form of victory is overcoming the enemy without direct fighting.

Know Yourself and Your Enemy: Understanding both sides ensures safety in battle.

Adaptability: Be flexible and fluid like water, adjusting to the enemy's weaknesses.

Deception: "Appear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak".

Speed and Efficiency: Swift, decisive action prevents long, costly conflicts.

However, what if any action including swift and decisive actions, is wrong?

Aggression for any reason whatsoever that leads to harm, especially of the innocent, is wrong and will lead to retribution and mutual annihilation catastrophes. 

Deception, though effective for short periods of time should not be a primary strategy for deception, also deceives the deceiver over time into believing that fraud and lies much like Ponzi schemes are any kind of truth and foundational intelligence. Because people have a tendency to believe what they want instead of believing what is needed or real. Deception will lead to credibility and reliability issues.

Though adaptability is key, adapting just to perceived weaknesses of an enemy is not enough. Adaptation is required for all situations, especially current technological changes. Adaptation is also required for self-enlightenment and not just blind focus on opponents' perceived weaknesses, neglecting strengths. An enemy is only as weak as their weakest friend; therefore, looking solely at an enemy's weaknesses is not enough.

Knowing thyself and thy enemy is definitely a key strategy. But how well do you really know yourself? Existing in the constructs of Caesar, neglecting and ignoring spiritual aspects of self with delusions of ruthlessness through any means necessary for victory is the destruction of self and humanity within.  

How well do you know your enemy? Knowing just the enemy is not enough. You must also know their friends, the ones that will rise to the aid of the perceived enemy, and also those that will fight for justice and freedom, and against aggressors and bullies that will murder innocent people for political or selfish gains.

Subduing without combat is a lofty goal. However resorting to brainwashing, gaslighting, and terrorism is not any kind of anything, but crimes against humanity, and brainwashing yourself into believing that doing harm will result in anything worthwhile is grandiose and unholy.

Finally, once mired in the war games and power struggles, you are chained to the process of mutual annihilation and lose-lose situations, not mutual understanding and interests, and peace and prosperity.
