1 John 2:1-11

My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin.

if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father—Jesus Christ, the

Righteous One.

2 He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for

the sins of the whole world.

Note:

1 is talking about accidental sins. Not a person who practices sinning.

Note:

John 3:9 says: No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God's

seed remains in them; they cannot go on sinning, because they have been born of

God.

know that we have come to know him if we keep his commands. 4 Whoever says, “I

know him,” but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in

that person. 5 But if anyone obeys his word, love for God is truly made complete

in them. This is how we know we are in him: 6 Whoever claims to live in him must

live as Jesus did.

Love and Hatred for Fellow Believers

7 Dear friends, I am not writing you a new command but an old one, which you

have had since the beginning. This old command is the message you have heard. 8

Yet I am writing you a new command; its truth is seen in him and in you, because

the darkness is passing and the true light is already shining.

9 Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates a brother or sister is still in

the darkness. 10 Anyone who loves their brother and sister lives in the light,

and there is nothing in them to make them stumble. 11 But anyone who hates a

brother or sister is in the darkness and walks around in the darkness. They do

not know where they are going, because the darkness has blinded them.

In "Your Debt," Trey Knowles declares that we owe the system nothing but love. He speaks to how the system has stripped his people of their divine origin, forcing them to live in the shadows of darkness instead of the light of their true nature.

Trey Knowles' speech "Description" explores the contrast between America's image and its alignment with the image of God. Knowles questions whether America, Great Britain, and England truly reflect godly character, suggesting that many people in these countries have drifted from divine principles. He uses the metaphor of eating from the "belly of the beast" to illustrate how people consume things that are disconnected from God's will—things that don't come from Him, yet are embraced by society. This speech serves as a wake-up call, particularly for those who profess to love God, urging them to reflect on how far they have strayed from righteous values. Knowles challenges his audience to consider how they became so complacent, accepting worldly comforts and distractions, rather than holding on to spiritual truths. Through his message, he aims to spark a deeper awareness about the need to realign with divine principles and live according to God's image.

Edomites Wickedness Behind the Scenes by Trey Knowles: Watch the world closely. Watch those who say that they are a gentile nation. Watch those heathens. Do they match the image of God? Be an eyewitness and tell all of your family and friends. The devil took Jesus to a high place and showed him all the kingdoms of the world. The devil said, “I will give you all these kingdoms and all their power and glory”. The devil said, “If you worship me, it will all be yours”. Jesus responded, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: 'Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only. How are you responding to the devil, are you responding like Jesus? The European Red Man said yes to the devil and the devil's ways to have the world. The devil took the European Red Man to a high place and showed him all the kingdoms of the world. The devil said, “I will give you all these kingdoms and all their power and glory”. The devil said, “If you worship me, it will all be yours”. the European Red Man responded. Yes, I will take it. Why do you follow the European Red Man and his ways? Those who call themselves Gentiles, the shadow of death is near you if you do not repent, come out her way. If Sodom and Gomorrah had the advanced intellect of faith, that you claim to have it would not have been destroyed. Hebrews 13:5 says, "Keep your life free from love of money and be content with what you have, for he has said, 'I will never leave you nor forsake you. Exodus 20:17 says Do not covet” which is a commandment from God that prohibits having an unlawful desire for something that belongs to someone else. My Lord says in 1 John 2:15-29. Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. Why are those gentile nations trying to influence you to gain the world and love money? What those heathen Gentiles and stay away from their pagan rituals and holidays. Do not allow them to influence you. Why do they colonize? Why do they do the opposite of God's character? Their stomach has become fat from the things of the world. They have been wrestling with pigs for pig's food. This greed does not come from God but from the devil. Now watch Edomite's wickedness behind the scenes, those who call good evil and evil good. He deceives the whole world with his disobedient deeds, He causes havoc to all mankind to conquer the world.

Two Beasts that do the opposite of God's character, one is an Anti-Christ, the other is a false prophet. To follow God, you must follow in God in truth and in spirit and live by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God. Matthew 7:15-20 says. You Will Know Them by Their Fruits.

Please think about these three verses.

Note: Matthew 24:26; Jesus says “Therefore if they say to you, ‘Look, He is in the desert!' do not go out; or ‘Look, He is in the inner rooms!' do not believe it.

Note: 1 John 3:15 says. Anyone who hates a brother or sister is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life residing in him.

Note: 1 Corinthians 13:1-4 says If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.

Was King James Gay?

King James I's life and reign provide a significant lens through which to examine the history of homosexuality in 16th and 17th century England. While same-sex relationships were not explicitly legalized or recognized, they were also not universally condemned. The king's close relationships with male favorites, particularly Robert Carr and George Villiers, have been interpreted as evidence of homoerotic attraction, although this interpretation is still debated.

Historical Context and Debate:

Limited Legal Framework:

The term "homosexuality" did not exist in the way it does today. Laws focused on "sodomy," which was defined as sex with a male and specifically excluded sexual acts between women.

Social Norms and Interpretations:

Male-male relationships, especially in courtly settings, were often viewed as public expressions of friendship and patronage rather than necessarily sexual. Sharing beds, exchanging kisses, and other displays of affection were common practices, even among heterosexual men, and these actions are often cited as evidence of King James's sexual preferences, but can also be interpreted as displays of intimacy within the context of his court.

Historians' Perspectives:

Historical accounts of James's life have varied. Some have focused on moral condemnations of his supposed homosexuality, while others have re-evaluated his reign and separated his sexuality from broader judgments about his character and leadership.

Impact of the Civil War:

Some historians, like Michael Young, argue that King James's homosexuality, particularly his spending of state funds on his favorites, may have contributed to the tensions and unrest that led to the English Civil War.

Key Figures and Relationships:

Robert Carr:

A close confidante and advisor to King James, Carr was known for his beauty and was the object of the King's affections.

George Villiers:

Another favorite of King James, Villiers became the Duke of Buckingham and held significant political power.

In Conclusion:

King James's life and relationships provide valuable insights into the complexities of same-sex relationships and the evolving understanding of sexuality in early modern England. While historical accounts often focus on moral judgments and the King's relationships with his male favorites, it is crucial to consider the broader social context and the ambiguities of interpretation in order to gain a more nuanced understanding of this historical period.

Trey Knowles' “Woe to You Law Enforcement” delivers a strong warning: if innocent people are harmed by police or mistreated in jail, the responsibility lies with law enforcement—and ultimately with their leader, Donald Trump. Just as Roman soldiers followed orders to crucify Jesus Christ, today's officers risk becoming the modern equivalent if they blindly follow unjust commands.
