My mother is a Jehovah's Witness, which is a cult tied to the Masons. I have a friend who is a low-level Mason. There are people of good character I know who are Catholics. While I have a problem with secret societies and oaths that split loyalty, for me to disassociate myself with everyone who might be "tainted" in some way is self-sabotage.

The principle of staying clean and pure has to be squared with the consequences in our dirty yet real social environment. The reality of the terrain is that it has Satanic elements to navigate around. Staring at the heavens and wishing you were not bound to the land doesn't solve that.

We have ubiquitously infiltrated institutions, so guilt by association is going to get us nowhere. I have plenty of my own struggles with sin and mortal desire to confront before I go around passing judgment on others. Inevitable events will take care of the institutional corruption.

I agree. And until Full Truth is available, don't be so hard on urself. We all find that when we pray for our enemies...we lose our hate...when we pray for our Loved ones only or judge them...we only distance ourselves from God. I AM not the shiny'est example of spiritual growth...but im no longer ashamed of who I AM or what ive done in the past that may be judged by those who don't look inside for more reason to pray. I learned that praying for my own personal "things" was limiting my ability to grow beyond self Love. Praying for my enemies, percieved or real...allowed me to break thru the barrier that was in me. Shame is not from God. We shed tears for ourselves enuff already...I remember crying and praying that those who do evil against God's children would return to God in Jesus' name just to end this crapfest we're in...and I grew from that. With soo much to "ascend from" we're better off praying for those we "hate" than those we Love. U have found God, and THATS why u grow.🎵🌴🤍

😄💗💗💥🔥...this is Awesome!!...no hate found in love...let the light shine through the darkness

I agree Daniel! Can't find no hate in Love! I was a hater...really we pretty much all were. And sure...there are those we "hate" still with the more we learn. And im betting that at the "end" of this crapfest WE WILL HAVE TO FORGIVE MANY PEOPLE!...for OUR own Salvation. We see forgiveness as being for ourselves by God...when in fact it's US FORGIVING others that saves our troubled souls. Jesus has asked His Father, and ours, to: Forgive them Father...for they know not what they do. God is good. We experience life in many ways...and we learn from that. If I Love u, it's a good thing for u and me...if I: Love THY enemies...as Jesus asked us to, I find peace. The Peacemaker we know as Jesus is always right. Pray for thine enemies.
Seek not vengeance.
Love thy neighbor as u Love urself.

Shine the light of Love in ALL directions.
U rock Daniel!!! 👀💥💯🎵🌴🤍
