QuinQQ:
This is exactly what I mean by hypocrisy. You carefully avoided the fact that Adam did not create himself nor was he the one that gave himself the type of brain that would arrive at the conclusion that the thing to do was to eat the fruit. EVERYTHING Adam did was entirely a result of the type if brain he was given and the tyoe if experiences he was,exposed to - none of which he chose!

You also carefully avoided the fact that long before he was created God already knew he'd eat the fruit!
Well from my end, I don't carefully avoid fact in hypocrisy when attending to questions or objections against my message of God.

I understand Adam didn't make himself, neither did he make his own brain or experiences he was exposed to. I just don't consider his brain-set or his experience as factor to blame for his decision to listen to his wife and disobey God. It is about his heart, not about his brain. His inspiration, not his experience. His devotion, not his education. His loyalty and virtues, not cunningness of the Serpent or the signs on the woman.

In simpler language, "It's not about what happens to a man, but about how the man reacts or acts because of what happens to him." That's the secret of the judgments. What caused a man to sin does not excuse the man who sin, it only implicates or indicts others as culprits. Adam was asked, have you eaten of the tree I told you not to eat? Adam did not even answer Yes or No, but sounded like you are now sounding by showing how the circumstances he was exposed to and the woman God gave to be with him influenced him into eating. That excuse did not remove or reduce his being guilty, but it included the woman in the guilt.

Thankfully, God provided us with another man comparable with Adam, who did not fall or fail like Adam. That man was named, Job.

Compare Adam and Job:

{1}. Foreknowledge of God: — God knew Adam will fail with the combination of Satan and his wife against him, if God raises him up from dwelling on the ground to dwelling in the East called Eden. Yet, if God didn't allow Adam to try and fail by himself, mankind would accuse God for the suffering and death of Adam and his descendants without any cause. So God gave Adam a chance to prevent the sufferings and death of all humanity by not failing the test. Yet, Adam failed.

On the other hand,

Foreknowledge of God: — God knew Job will never fail even with the combination of Satan and his wife against him, even if God strikes him down from dwelling in the East called Ur as the richest man to the ground as the most tormented man in the East. Yet, if God didn't allow Satan to try and fail by himself against, mankind would accuse God for favoring Job with all the good things of life and building a hedge around his garden or estate that no Serpent or Satan could enter through the hedge into Job's Garden or Estate that why Job remained upright and never sinned like other people do. So God gave Satan a chance to prevent the perfection, uprightness and integrity from being perpetual. Yet, Job never failed.

{2}. Satan used the wife of Adam, as well as he used the wife of Job, against her husband's uprightness. In both cases, Satan used both women in matters of good and evil, against the uprightness of their husbands.

The moment Satan used the wife of Adam in matters of good and evil, Adam found the excuse he was looking for to do that sin he was secretly wanting to do in his mind but found no excuse or opportunity to do and then blame it on someone else's actions or inactions. Adam failed with his mouth eating of the knowledge of good and evil his wife gave him to eat.

But in contrast the moment Satan used the wife of Job in matters of good and evil, Job rebuked his wife for sounding foolish and not wise though she thought she was wise in her own eyes. Job thought her, shall we receive good from God and not receive the evil also. And Job never failed or sinned with his mouth.

[Job 31:1, 9] — "“I made a covenant with my eyes, how then should I look lustfully at a young woman?... "If my heart have been deceived by a woman, or if I have laid wait at my neighbor's door;"

{3} Both Adam and Job were taught by God on the mystery of God's creation and creatures in the beginning. But Adam fell from seeing God to only hearing God, while Job improved from only hearing God with the hearing of the ears to seeing God verbatim.

{4} Adam was hiding his sin from God, but Job was searching for his sin before God. As it written, [Job 31:33 NLV] — "Have I hidden my sins like Adam? Have I hidden my wrong-doing in my heart,"

QuinQQ:
Your video/write-up is truly hypocritical. Just one example, Adam had no knowledge of good from evil, did not even know he was naked, yet he was supposed to outsmart a wise, cunning serpent,
I intend for my video/writing to be faithful and truthful without guile.

As for the case study for example, let's establish these three facts:

{1}. Fact One: Adam had knowledge of God, as well as knowledge of good and evil though at lower degree, even before he ate of the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

Adam had conscience that draws the line between good and evil. We are talking of a man who was Ruler of the whole world, including all birds that moves in the open heaven, all moving things in the seas, and all things that move on the earth.

Yes, even though God assigned angels to guard and minister to the Garden of God or paradise, Adam was their Captain or Commander incharge over the angels dressing and keeping the Garden, including over the cherubim. Don't think the Cherubim and flaming sword guarding the Garden came after Adam was taken out, rather they had been there before Adam sinned. Only that before Adam sinned, they were subject to Adam; but after Adam sinned they became fearful to Adam.

It takes a man of great wisdom and knowledge to both know and name all animals of the ground, and to both know and name the woman is bone of his bones and flesh of his flesh or taken out of him, even though he was unaware of when or how any of those creatures including the woman was secretly made. Just by looking at them he knew secrets, knowledge and had discernment of them.

In one of my recent writing here, I did mention that the intelligence God built into the man was taken from the clouds and Angels, while his eyes' material was taken from the Sun, just as his breath came from God Himself. So, never regard Adam as without knowledge enough to rule the earth or oversee the Garden of God. Infact, it's safer to regard Adam more knowledgeable before he ate of the Tree of Knowledge of good and evil, than to regard Adam more knowledgeable after they ate of the tree of knowledge of good and evil: I tell you, Adam was more illuminated before he ate the forbidden and less illuminated when or after he ate the forbidden tree — Therefore, don't let Illuminati fool you.


{2} Fact two: When Adam did not know he was naked, there was no problem with that ignorance. Infact, that ignorance was bliss.

The point is, God was not going to judge Adam for being naked, but was to judge Adam for being disobedient.

Many people today continued in the part of the Serpent, selling the narrative that it was better as Eve ate the forbidden fruit otherwise mankind would still be walking naked and remained babies in minddet. One idiot even suggested that there should be "World Eve Remembrance Day" in our calendar to celebrate Eve eating of the Forbidden Tree to help humanity become civilized: for if not for her humanity would have remained primitive and walking naked in bushes among animals.

Those celebrating the civilization that the forbidden knowledge brought forget also the death and destruction the same knowledge brought. Which would you choose between these two options: Option 1, You will know every good and evil in the world but once you attain all-knowing of good and evil you must die that very day; Option 2, You will-depend on God to guide you with His Spirit or Message on what is good and what is not good, but you will live as long as keep His wordhuh

The Ignorance that is bliss is being independently blind in your natural abilities, but seeing through depending on the Spirit of God.

{3} Adam was not supposed or required to outsmart the cunning Serpent, rather Adam was supposed or required to keep the Commandment of God. It is as simple as that.

What business did Adam had with the Serpent you speak of? Even if there was someone Adam should outsmart, that should be to outsmart the woman whom Adam obviously knew better than. He had no business outsmarting a serpent. How can you tell the God who gave you everything including the woman that you were loyal to the woman more than you were loyal to the God? God gave you everything, including dominion, life, power, paradise, enjoyment, practical all goodness on the platter of gold without breaking a sweat; but the only thing the woman ever gave you was one or half forbidden fruit, and you because of her tiny forbidden gift you throw away your senses and your glorious destiny to betray your God in order not to miss what she was offering you? What kind of excuse or justification are you trying to make for Adam in this matter?

Apart from the Devil and his team, which other creature is as ungrateful as human beings?

Simple instruction, "Do not eat this, for you must die in the day you eat it." What has that got with being smarter or naked or ignorant or still a child?

Adam did not have to smarter than the Serpent, he only needed to be more grateful and more loyal to God than the Serpent — That's all Adam needed to overcome the Serpent and remain King in Paradise forever.

QuinQQ:
and that after he clearly saw his wife eat the fruit and not die but instead became wise. Not only that, it was already known this was what he'll do, like, destiny. And after he did it instead of giving him a warning as a first-time offender who knew no better, not only was he punished but his entire generations!
Let's establish three facts here also:

{1}. You mentioned that Adam clearly saw his wife eat the forbidden fruit and did not die but instead became wise — as a sign for Adam to follow. Many Christians deceived by their pastors, General Overseers, Prophets, Apostles and so-called fathers in the Lord, with so-called exegesis that either forces God's Severity and Warnings to blend with their hyper grace and prosperity messages or else they discard such Severity or Warnings of God as Old Testament or as unenlightened views of Old ministers, are also good in using false signs, testimonies, superstories and hypes, as miracles, signs and wonders, they sell to the people when they deceive them.

For Adam, he first observed the signs and wonders of his wife eating of the forbidden tree without any seen harm but false appearance of being wise: and he also foolishly believed and listened to his wife at the expense of obeying God. Same with that man of God from Judah, who listened to the signs and wonders of an old or elderly prophet at the direct expense of obeying God in First Kings chapter thirteen.

{2}. God already gave Adam first and last time offender's warning grace. The fact that God had to use, "Surely" in warning Adam of the death or inevitable consequences of eating of that tree. For a God who cannot lie, who's word practically created all things, to have to swear or painstakingly assure man with "Surely, Verily or Vow to man" in emphasis as if saying the same thing without the assurance was not good enough, and yet a serpent out of nowhere or a woman made you believe God was not serious or "God's Surely, Verily" is not exegesis but a theological error that does not agree with New Testament Character, Grace or Revelation of God; what more warnings do you think God would give to that man and he will hear?

{3}. The Punishment of Adam and his generations was also warning to Adam and to his generations. Their sufferings, their death, their been in hell etc., were all part of the last warning of God for the redemption of Adam and mankind. Figuratively, it's cruel punishment that lasted for 4 or 5 days, and those 4 or 5 days translated into about 4000 or 5000 thousand years till the Lord Jesus Christ descended into Hell and restored Adam and Eve back to Paradise and to Heaven. So currently, Adam and Eve have been forgiven and restore into far more glorious estate than they had in the beginning.

Unfortunately, not all descendants of Adam and Eve got to be saved, delivered or redeemed. The current punishment or suffering people are facing is not to blame Adam and Eve, but to sin and wickedness of mankind and of devils. Ensure you are not part of the sinners or devils, but part of the righteous and holy ones in all records of your life on earth.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2gU85sOuVOE?si=XXZwMNrnI2Gdb-sE

1}. Do you agree that if God is everywhere, He should also be in hell with the bad or evil people there?

God Indeed is in everywhere, including hell. However, He is not there in hell with the evil ones, rather He is there in hell against the evil ones. The Aspect of God that is found in hell or destruction is without Light, without Mercy, without Grace, without Goodness. Yes, it's not the goodness of God in hell but instead it is the Severity of God. Psalms 36:5 states that the mercy is dwelling in the heavens {not found in hell}; and verse 6 tells us that what is found in the deep, Abyss or Hell are the judgments of God. The brief time in which the Goodness, Light, Countenanceand, Grace and Mercies of God came into Hell was when the Lord Jesus Christ left His Body in death and descended into Hell bearing all those Goodness of God with Him. Apart from then or that, the Aspect of God in hell is the fearful Aspects of Him that destroys both body and soul in hell.



2}. How is a world begun in shadow consistent with a God who is wholly good?

It's consistent because the Good God has a good shadow under which the world may abide safely. As it is written, "He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty." (Psalms 91:1).

3}. Why does a loving God invent a place of endless torment that we call hell?

Because in the love of God, He wouldn't continue to leave torments scattered everywhere for, He would gather or unite all torments together to dwell in that one place He invented for them called hell. When all torments finally inherit their place called hell, there will be no more torment anywhere else. Then the Love of God will have satisfied all things in their domains meant for them.

4}. Is punishing short finite sins with infinite pain a just or a cruel design?

There's nothing like finite or small sin if the wages of sin is death. Every sin or offense is infinite or eternal unless Love, Mercy, Justice or Forgiveness nullifies a sin or group of sins. It is when there is no Love, no mercy, no forgiveness, no remission, no atonement, no justification, for sin that condemnation of the sin takes the guilty into death and infinite pain. Unfortunately, even when it is a cruel design, it is also a just one: the cruelty of hell does not make it unjust for the sinner or condemned. Infinite duration of the sentence is cruel but it's because it's not a sentence in life but a sentence in death, and there's no time or days for measuring or numbering justice's duration for the dead.


5}. If God knew, before time, who would end in hell, why make them at all?

If you know the food you farmed, grew, prepared, or cooked, will eventually end up in the toilet pit, why do you prepare the food at all? All human descendants of Adam and Eve where to end in hell. Yet they consider fruitfulness or bearing children as blessing from God. Adam and Eve could have prevented anyone from either being born or from ending up in death or hell if they had just stayed clear from one tree among many countless trees. To stop make more humans because they would end in hell is to strike all men impotent and all women barren, which means there will be no continuity of human race on earth once their last kind die.

The only two ways to remedy or redeem the mess are not by terminating the entrance of new humans, but by {one} The Second Adam or Son of God as Savior and Deliverer of people from hell into eternal life and {two} The ending of the world, so that it will no longer continue in this terrible procession.


6}. Would mercy not spare them the endless suffering of a fate He foresaw?

Mercy did and does spare us the endless suffering of the fate God foresaw. However, many who have not seen what God foresaw neither believe what He foresaw or sees, nor do they even regard the mercy He sent to them. How do you help blind people who do not even fully believe you exist or do not believe you see better than them in the way ahead, and wouldn't heed your warnings about dangers or pits where they are headed? Even if He sends witnesses and evidences to them, they wouldn't still believe or receive His mercy and message, because they only believe what they see, what they feel or what blind scientists as blind as them testify. Therefore mercy without faith couldn't save them.
Christianity Etc › Asking The Angel Incharge Of Life And Death Matters, Who Between God And Satan. by PCHC(op): 2:56am On Sep 14

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWn7iLZPggg?si=P62BowKnjChRMSVr


Asking the angel in charge of matters of life and death: who, between God and the Serpent, was the liar concerning the eating of the forbidden tree?

“Adam received God’s own breath directly into his nostrils and became a living soul. His body was carefully formed from chosen materials: dust for flesh, rock for bones, dew for blood, grass sprouts for hair, sunlight for eyes, water for emotions, clouds and angels for intelligence, and God’s breath of life for spirit and soul. His original body was both spiritual and physical—strong enough to withstand the fiery presence of God without melting and intense cold without freezing. It was glorious, shining like an angel’s body, though a little lower than the angels.

“The first stroke of death came when humanity ate from the forbidden tree. Adam and Eve immediately lost their glorious bodies and were reduced to naked bodies of dust. This loss also diminished their spiritual vision. Ironically, their eyes were opened while they became spiritually blind. They could no longer see God, but only heard His voice walking, and fear struck them as their bodies began deteriorating. They fell from incorruptible to corruptible bodies and could no longer endure God’s manifest presence. Within Eden, no earthly sun governed the day; God Himself was its light. The sun governed only outside the Garden.

“The second stroke of death came when God cursed the ground for Adam’s sake. The first stroke removed their spiritual glory and protection. The second stripped away their dew, or bodily sap, through compulsory sweating, sickness, suffering, and labor for food. Their blood essence began dying, and humanity began aging.

“The third stroke reversed humanity’s destination—from heavenly Paradise toward the dust from which Adam came. Dust returning to dust also bound humanity downward to death and hell, whether righteous or unrighteous.

“This continued until Jesus Christ came, died, entered hell, and changed the destination of those righteous and faithful to Him. He redirected them from death and hell toward life and heaven. Before that redemption, anyone whose body remained on earth or in the grave was bound to hell. If Christ’s body had remained in the grave, He would have remained in hell or returned to earth.

“But Christ rose and ascended. As He was lifted up, He drew His own departed people—including Adam and Eve—from below toward Himself above. What a great transition: from corruption to life, from the grave toward resurrection, and from hell-bound death to heaven-bound destiny.”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=am6MBqa9SBA?si=tagSzkU5sJB-hlGQ

Asking the Interpreter: who, between God and the Serpent, was the liar concerning the eating of the forbidden tree?

“I tell you that everything God said was true and faithful, while the Serpent lied. God said that on the day the man ate from the forbidden tree, he would surely die. The Serpent told the woman that mankind would not surely die, even after eating from it. Because Adam and Eve did not literally die within that earthly twenty-four-hour day, some people argue that the Serpent seemed closer to the truth concerning their death. So let me explain what ‘the day’ meant in connection with the Garden, or Paradise.

“The day: A day inside the Garden was greatly different from a day outside it upon the earth. Within the Garden, there was only the cool of the day. There was no night, sunrise, sunset, sunlight, moonlight, or rainfall over Paradise. The Garden stood directly beneath the atmosphere of the higher heavens, beyond the firmament and the waters above. As it is in heaven, where God is the Sun, Life, and Light powering all things, so it was within Eden, also called the Mountain of God.

“Adam and Eve first experienced earthly sunrise, night, and darkness after they were cast out of the Garden into ordinary earthly conditions.

“A full day inside the Garden was like a thousand years outside it. An earthly day lasts twenty-four hours, containing evening and morning, daytime and night. Adam’s entire time within Eden before his expulsion amounted to approximately one Garden hour—about one Jubilee, or forty to fifty earthly years. If Adam had lived for one thousand earthly years or more, God’s statement would have failed, because a Garden day corresponded to a thousand earthly years.

“Therefore, by the Garden’s measure, Adam died on the same day he ate from the forbidden tree. He died outside the Garden at nine hundred and thirty earthly years, still short of one complete Garden day.

“Why was death not immediate? Adam, Eve, and the Garden were too full of life for sudden death. The Tree of Life was also there. Had they eaten from it afterward, they would have lived forever, making death impossible. To preserve His faithful word, God cut Adam and Eve off from the Tree of Life and expelled them from the Garden. They were not to die inside that heavenly Paradise, but outside it, where they returned as dust to dust.”
Christianity Etc › Asking Being Like Gods Knowing Good And Evil, Who Between God & The Serpent Lied by PCHC(op): 1:13pm On Sep 11

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4rWWkhkyy4?si=2RKLS00b80n4kIL-

Asking the statement, “being like gods, knowing good and evil”: who, between God and the Serpent, was the liar concerning the eating of the forbidden tree?

“What the Serpent said—that they would be like gods, knowing good and evil after eating from the forbidden tree—was factually correct, but malicious, and therefore deceptive. A malicious fact does not qualify as truth when it is designed to steal, kill, and destroy. Thus, the Serpent was a murderer from the beginning.

“Whatever the Serpent promised was already built into humanity before mankind approached either the Serpent or the tree. Humanity already bore God’s likeness, having been created in the image of God. People already possessed an inbuilt conscience that safely distinguished good from evil. They had wisdom and could behold the gods, angels, and heavenly beings through the Garden’s light, which connected God’s presence in heaven with paradise in Eden. They only needed to continue beholding God and learning from the gods—the sons of God, or angels—and they would gradually grow in the knowledge of good, evil, and all things.

“When God created the gods, or angels, He gave them the capacity to receive tremendous knowledge, abilities, and power at once without collapsing beneath their weight. Angels were equipped with the capacities needed for their appointed tasks and stations. By default, they do not need to grow gradually in capacity, nor do they multiply.

“Humanity, however, was created to begin small, grow gradually, and multiply through procreation. New humans continue to be born, increasing humanity’s number, while no new angels are created. Humans mature gradually in knowledge and in the likeness of God.

“The Serpent maliciously pushed humanity to absorb the knowledge of good and evil in the manner of angels, although humans were not designed to carry such weight instantly. It was like placing the responsibilities of a hundred-year-old person upon a one-year-old child instead of allowing the child to mature gradually into that capacity.

“The fallen angels also crossed forbidden boundaries by attempting to multiply through women. They taught humanity forbidden knowledge through which the world became corrupt.

“In summary, God had already placed conscience within humanity to discern good and evil. People only needed to grow in grace and righteous knowledge instead of taking the forbidden shortcut offered through the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.”
Christianity Etc › Ask Forbidden Tree, Who Between God & The Serpent Lied About Eating Of The Tree? by PCHC(op): 9:52am On Sep 11

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afx_R4aFfAY?si=SMtCwpWokzP9yhYv

Asking the forbidden tree: who, between God and the Serpent, was the liar concerning the eating of the forbidden tree?

“As the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, I only open people’s eyes to know what, or who, is good or evil. You can see how I opened the eyes of Adam and Eve, enabling them to recognize their unclothedness, vulnerabilities, fears, and deception. They suddenly knew that the Serpent was evil, a liar, and a deceiver, even though the Serpent had been my advertiser or marketer.

“I did not hide the evilness of the Serpent, though he brought people to me. Neither did I hide the goodness of God, though He kept people away from me and made them consider me forbidden and deadly. Yes, I did not even hide the unclothedness of the couple who came to me and consummated marriage with me before they consummated marriage with one another.

“My job has been to infuse the knowledge of good and evil into the eyes of those who have my seed-bearing fruit mixed within them. If you are still unable to tell who is your friend and who is your enemy, or who, between God and the Devil, is lying, come and eat my seed-bearing fruit again. Then I will open your eyes to know good and evil.”

Asking Adam and Eve: who, between God and the Serpent, was the liar concerning the eating of the forbidden tree?

Even the very person to whom Satan, or the Serpent, spoke accused the Serpent of deceiving her. The four discussed and reviewed the matter afterward, following the secret, or side, talks. God was there. The Serpent was there. Adam and Eve were there. And the forbidden tree had been eaten. It was time to verify who, between God and the Serpent, had lied and who had told the truth about the forbidden tree, now that they had eaten from it.

Ask Adam: who, between God and the Serpent, was the liar concerning the eating of the forbidden tree?

“My own answer is that God never lied about anything He told me through His Word, but it was not so with His woman. The Word He gave to me forbade me from the tree. But the woman He gave to me contradicted His Word, gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate. I listened to the woman of God instead of to the Word of God.”

Ask the woman: who, between God and the Serpent, was the liar concerning the eating of the forbidden tree?

“The Serpent deceived me, lied to me, and I ate. The Serpent is the liar from the beginning.”
Christianity Etc › Question: Is The God Of Light The Same God That Authored Both Darkness + Light? by PCHC(op): 10:18am On Sep 09

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nlS-gZJh1A0?si=aDbncIILBBiMIJW5

Question:
Isaiah says that God creates darkness, yet the New Testament calls Him pure light. Does the same God then author both the dark and the light at the very same time?

Answers:

Both the New and Old Testaments call God the Light, the Sun, the Lamp, and the everlasting burning Fire. God, the Light, created both light and darkness. Consider three mysteries of darkness.

Number one: darkness can be a form of light without brilliance—a dark or negative light that contains brightness instead of displaying it. In this sense, darkness is the lowest grade of light, not simply light’s opposite. Job described the land of the dead by saying its light is darkness, in Job chapter ten, verse twenty-two. Psalm one hundred and thirty-nine says darkness shines as light before God. Outer darkness need not mean no light; one realm’s noon can be midnight beside a higher glory. Isaiah chapter fifty-eight, verse ten, speaks of darkness becoming as noonday. Jesus called the eye the body’s lamp and warned: let your light not be darkness, in Luke chapter eleven, verse thirty-five.

Number two: God is Light, with no darkness inside Him, yet Psalm ninety-seven, verse two, says clouds and darkness surround Him. Light represents purity, transparency, glory, clarity, and openness. Darkness represents mystery, concealment, and covering. This is the paradox: Light within Him, darkness around Him. Heaven offers openness without unclothedness: inner light reveals hearts, not exposed bodies. On earth, bodies are easier to see than hearts; in realms of inner light, hearts are easier to understand.

Number three: light and darkness were created good and designed to help each other. Darkness became associated with evil after Satan’s fall and humanity’s fall. Before evil entered creation, pure light still needed pure darkness. Light was created before darkness; Genesis chapter one, verses two and three, does not mean darkness existed first.

How does pure darkness serve pure light?

First, darkness gives some lights a domain in which to rule, shine, and display their brilliance. Lightning, the moon, stars, and fireflies are noticed against darkness. Needing a dark background does not diminish their brilliance. Lightning can appear brighter than the sun: storm clouds may block sunlight, yet one flash illuminates the earth through those clouds.

Second, darkness shields lesser lights from greater lights. The eyes need protection from sunlight, headlights, and focused beams. Intense light can blind the eyes more than darkness. This reveals humility in obscurity: although the eye is the body’s light, it still needs some darkness to shield excessive brightness and see clearly.
Christianity Etc › If God Is Only Light, Why Use Darkness As A Tool Of Judgement Or Of Hiding? by PCHC(op): 4:04am On Sep 09

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bj8vdFgBLD4?si=bwrAlm_5KxCps7mB

When God, the Light, uses darkness as a tool of judgment or a tool of hiding, He is basically cutting short more of Him, the Light, from the victims. The judgment or hiding from God is basically how much of God one gains or loses, manifested as how much of light one gains or loses. This loss or gain of light, which means of God, manifests in one's visions, sights, blindness, revelation, illumination, enlightenment, brilliance, confusion, ignorance, depression, nightmare, anxiety, and so on. And overall, that's what basically defines whether one is living heaven or living hell.

Someone ignorantly asserted that God spared Satan, who sinned, but punished humans who sinned by sending them to hell. Unknown to him is that Satan and demons are already living hell, in the pains of darkness, which is separation or deprivation of God, the Light, from any living thing. A life without God, the Light, is the hell or the condemnation. This is the condemnation: that the Light is in the world, but men love and live the darkness because their deeds are evil. John, chapter three, verse nineteen.

Neither Satan nor demons chose darkness, though they did or loved evil. Darkness was the first hell they fell into because they got banished from the presence of God. No living soul or spirit can bear separation from God, the Light, because the Light is the power, the life, the vitality, the revival and survival of the glories, pleasures, health, wealth, strength, and comfort of all living things. One of the differences between the Devil with his demons on one hand, and the fallen angels on the other hand, is that the Devil's team are not chained in darkness, but tormented by darkness, while the team of the fallen angels are chained, or reserved with chains of darkness. How can Satan defeat God when Satan always needs God for his health or strength to carry on? If not for the ban or casting away, Satan and demons would be attending every presentation of angels to God, because drawing closer to God, the Light, heals and rejuvenates all living, the way power recharges your phone battery.

Basically, even the kingdoms or powers of darkness are scorched and tormented by these two causes of darkness. One: the darkness caused by hiding, withdrawing, or separating God from them. And two: the darkness caused by God sending darkness as a plague or as judgment to them. As it is written:

Psalm one hundred and five, verses twenty-eight to twenty-nine: “The Lord sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against His word. He turned their waters into blood, and killed their fish.”

Revelation, chapter sixteen, verses ten to eleven: “And the fifth angel poured out his vial on the seat of the beast, the Antichrist; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, and blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds.”

Christianity Etc › And Why Does The Adversary Even Challenge God, As We Read In The Book Of Job? by PCHC(op): 9:12pm On Sep 02
And why does the adversary even challenge God, as we read in the book of Job?

In Job, Satan did not challenge God at all. The best record of Satan’s religious devotion to God is in Job.

Satan acted like a seeker and a sent servant of God, though not for Job’s favor.

Infact, God testified Satan moved Him to strike a God-fearing man without cause.

Satan played the role so well he moved God in ways many Christians never have moved God before.

So Satan did not challenge God, but moved God in the book of Job.

Unlike the conventional way, the righteous is moving God in prayers to strike the wicked or devil,

Job is a reverse case where a devil or demon moved God to strike the righteous without cause.

If God is all-powerful, why does Satan still hold real power over the world?

Being All-powerful does not mean or require withdrawing all the powers over or inside the world.

God neither needs to render Satan powerless nor to add Satan's power to His to establish His All-powerfulness.
Christianity Etc › If God Sees Evil Happen And Does Nothing, Can He Be All-powerful And All-loving by PCHC(op): 1:19pm On Sep 02
If God sees evil happen and does nothing, can He be all-powerful and all-loving at the same time?

Yes, God is both all-powerful and all-loving, especially when He sees evil happening and does nothing.

If He always reacts or acts whenever He sees evil happening, it means He is moved or manipulated by evil.

Neither His all-powerfulness nor His all-lovingness is conditional or conditioned by any happening evil.

God is far above and beyond either the invocation or provocation of evil: All evils are less than nothing before His Love and Power.

God does not have to engage every evil at the level, timing and ground of the evil to prove His Love or Power. God has His own ways.

Christianity Etc › Why Did God Warn The Man Of A Forbidden Tree But Did Not Warn Him Of The Serpent by PCHC(op): 4:28am On Sep 01

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRu5zjMw700?si=r40unszWPIK6vuvD

Why did God warn the man about the forbidden tree but did not warn the man about the Serpent or Satan?

We already know why it was important for God to warn the man about the forbidden tree.

As for warning the man about the Serpent, it was not necessary at all.

As long as the man was warned of the forbidden tree, no other warning about any beast was needed.

No warning about any being in the Garden was needed, until the woman came.

If there was any beast or being God should have warned the man to beware of, it was the woman.

Death was meant to come to the man through the woman, yet she was called his "Helper".

She was presented as the "Helper" suitable for the man among all Beasts and Beings brought in.

To the man, the woman was both "Helper for" him and "Helper against" him.

Christianity Etc › ↝ Jerusalem: — From Been The Mother Of The Harlots To Becoming Mother Of The Hol by PCHC(op): 1:26am On Aug 23, 2025
↝ JERUSALEM: — FROM BEEN THE MOTHER OF THE HARLOTS TO BECOMING MOTHER OF THE HOLIES ↜

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️

The sins of this harlot, Jerusalem, became worse than the sins of Sodom (and Gomorrah). But the Lord God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah for lesser sins compared to these greater sins He tolerated from Jerusalem: — and because He would still forgive, redeem and restore this sinful woman (Jerusalem) that sinned worse than Sodom, whom He had earlier destroyed with eternal fire and Brimstone, behold the Lord God would have to restore Sodom and Gomorrah again because He would restore Jerusalem.

Sodom and Gomorrah would be saved or restored in the Day of Judgment. Actually, Sodom is the younger sister to Jerusalem, and so the Lord God destroyed Jerusalem’s sister and then married Jerusalem after destroying her sisters and her mother for lesser sins than those done by His estranged wife He called a “Harlot.”

The story is this concise: The Lord God married Jerusalem a virgin that was elder sister of Sodom and Gomorrah, but younger sister of Samaria. The Virgin wife later became a Harlot and Prostitute to a point that other prostitutes were seen as more righteous or better compared to her. She would attain the position of being the “Mother of Harlots” just as Mystery Babylon the great would be the mother of harlots and abominations of the earth: yet there is a great difference between “Jerusalem as Mother of Harlots” and “Mystery Babylon the great Mother of Harlots.” — The main difference would be in the conversions of both Jerusalem and the harlots she would mother from being harlots into becoming holies

Here's how these would happen: —

♧A♧ — First all women in her family, that were all whores shall be restored and rebranded by the Lord God in awesome conversion and transformation. These include the sisters of Jerusalem, namely, Samaria, Sodom and even the mother of Jerusalem, but more importantly she herself, Jerusalem shall changed into becoming the Lord's Bride, even more beautiful and glorious than ever to a point one would wonder if the stories of her harlotry were ever true, considering what she became in perfection of beauty of holiness.

♧B♧ — Then, the Lord God would also convert those who used to be her mother and sisters into her children, making Jerusalem the mother of all, including mother of those who were once her mothers and sisters. The way those who were once fathers, mothers, elders, brothers and sisters, to the Lord Jesus Christ would all be converted and called children of the Lord Jesus Christ, and He made Father to them all — even so shall Jerusalem be made mother of all before her and all after her, including mother of Adam and Eve. Any one of her children, even if they were born during the days of her harlotry or adulteries, they all shall eventually become the children of God because they are her children. For and in her sake, the Lord will have mercy on No-mercy; and God will say those to who were not God's people, “You are now the Children of God” (being children born in her).

So, the punishment for her sins of adulteries, harlotries, murders of her children and idolatries, against the Lord God and Husband of her, only left her desolate, but not divorced. She's left desolate by her Husband in the name of the Lord, but the Lord never divorced her for her infidelity or fornications — since He married her a Virgin. Their first marriage covenant had been broken by her, giving opportunity for the annulment and divorce; yet the Lord would rather enter into a new covenant or new marriage covenant with her again, though He left her desolate. For the Lord remembers she was His Undefiled, the virgin He was first to have. The Lord was the One who took her virginity and sanctifies her. Therefore, She is the Lord's Sanctuary to all eternity. Yes, She's a Woman literally and yes She's a City literally also — even as the Lord, Her Husband is a Man literally and at the same time He is much more many things that are neither man nor human literally.

⇵
[Ezekiel 16:35 BSB] — "Therefore, O prostitute, hear the word of the LORD!"
⇵
[Ezekiel 16:35 NLV] — "So, sinful woman, hear the Word of the Lord."

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️


In this bible verse in red, there are two calls:

■1■ — One of the two calls is a Label of Conviction in concluding she's a Convicted Sinner, Convicted Harlot or Convicted Prostitute.

■2■ — The other call of the two calls is a Call to give listening, hearing, attention and attendance, to the Word of the Lord.

To natural men, here is the case of giving her a bad name (but suitable based on evidence and conviction of her), calling her a sinful woman, a harlot, a prostitute, etc., yet you expect her (not to retaliate in calling you bad names in return but instead) to humbly keep her hearing, listening and attention, to the Word of the Lord from you. Is this a case of approaching or addressing her disrespectfully or rudely, yet calling her to hear the word of God?

Rather, this is a case hope, faith and love: — Basically “Grace” and “Truth.” The truth is that “She a sinful woman or harlot:” But Grace that came with the truth is that “The Word of God still comes to her, calling for her attention.” If I conclude or know that a woman is notorious harlot or sinners, I might not even be in talking terms with her in my “holier-than-you” attitude or malice against sinners based on prejudice towards harlots or women dressed like harlots. I may not be wrong in my regarding him/her as sinners or harlot because that's who they are; but as one who has the Spirit of Christ and on doing the Lord's works, I may be wrong to not talk with them or not be in speaking terms with them to give them the Grace or Chance to hear the word of God.

Since God does not hear sinners, therefore we should make the sinners to hear God instead. It is not like this, “You are a harlot/sinner, and the Lord will hear you;” rather it is, “You are a harlot/sinners, therefore you should hear the word of the LORD.”

●A●~ Does God hear sinners? No. As it is written,

[John 9:31 LG] — "Now we know that God does not hear sinners; but if anyone is God-fearing and does His will, He hears him.”

The sinners must first hear God, believe the Word of God they hear, confess and call upon the name of the Lord, then God would hear them in the “Time accepted” or in the “Day of Salvation.”

●B●~ Does the Word of God speak or talk to sinners? Yes. Though God does not hear sinners, God speaks or talks to sinners for them to hear God first. Some people were wondering why the Lord Jesus was talking with the sinners since He was a prophet or a holy man. The Lord Jesus did not come to call the righteous, but to call the sinners to repentance by Him speaking to sinners: It's the sick that need the Doctor not the healthy. He did not just call the sinners “Sinners,” but rather He called sinners to repentance and to hearing His voice as members of His Sheep that hear His Voice.

[Luke 7:39-40,47-48,50] — "When the Pharisee who had invited Jesus saw this, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet, He would know who this is and what kind of woman is touching Him— for she is a sinner!” But Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” “Tell me, Teacher,” he said…… … Therefore I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven, for she has loved much. But he who has been forgiven little loves little.” Then Jesus said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.” … And Jesus told the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go in peace.””

Actually, the bible verse in red, calling her a harlot or sinful woman while charging her to hear the word of the LORD, meant that she, the harlot or sinner, is already hearing the Word of the Lord because it is by hearing God that she or any sinner comes to know they are sinner — for it is the Word of God they hear that exposes or reveals that to them, convicting them of their sin or sicknesses. As it is written,

[1 Corinthians 14:24-25 NLV] — "But if a man who is not a Christian comes to your church meeting while you are all speaking God's Word, he will understand that he is a sinner by what he hears. He will know he is guilty. The secrets of his heart will be brought into the open. He will get on his knees and worship God. He will say, "For sure, God is here with you!"”

Therefore, this bible verse in red is the “Turning Point:” — as in the beginning of this Harlot’s conversion and restoration — which always begins by and with the ability of any sinner to hear the word of the LORD at any point in their depths of sins. If any harlot or prostitute or sinner can still hear the word of the LORD, that soul is still having grace of God with hope, faith and love therein. So do not give up, looking at the size of the sins or iniquities done; rather look at whether their hearing can still hear and understand or their seeing can still see and perceive, and whether their hearts can still understand the Word of the Lord God to them.

[Matthew 13:15-16 BSB] — "For this people’s heart has grown callous; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn, and I would heal them.’ But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear.”

Have I not said that this Harlot’s ability to still hear the Word of the Lord means she is potentially still having “Grace and Faith” though she lost her “Charms for attracting men and her Favor.”

Her great treasures and worth remaining in her or in any sinner, (irrespective of how much she as a harlot or prostitute had lost), is her “Hearing the Word of God:” — This brings faith to her.

[Romans 10:17 BBE] — "So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.”

There's hope for this harlot in hearing the Word of the Lord: — She will become the beloved of the Lord once more and exalted.

↝ THE OPPOSITE OF A PROSTITUTE ↜

[Ezekiel 16:34 FBV] — So you're the opposite of other prostitutes. No one comes to you asking for sex, and you pay the prostitute's fee instead of receiving it. You're the exact opposite!
⇵
[Ezekiel 16:34 AKJV] — And the contrary is in you from other women in your prostitutions, whereas none follows you to commit prostitutions: and in that you give a reward, and no reward is given to you, therefore you are contrary.
⇵
[Ezekiel 16:34 NLV] — You are different from other women in your sex sins. You go after men; they do not come to you. You pay men instead of them giving pay to you. Yes, you are different."

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️

She's the one chasing men to have sex with her; no man is chasing her or asking her out. So she's willing to pay or bribe men to sleep with her. What happened to her? She used to be the most beautiful woman in the world, but now she has no charm or attraction to even seduce any man to sleep with her unless she uses bribe to pay men before they consider being with her. How had she fallen from the most attractive to now the most ignored and contrary?

Some would want the hunter become the hunted, and the hunted become the hunter: — Even if you want the pursued to become the pursuer, you shouldn't want to be in the current state of this woman pursuing her men to be lovers because no man would pursue her. As for the money or bribes she offers, obviously with those she can only target the poorer men that can be swayed with the money or rewards she offers, but not the richer men\princes.

In this bible verse in red, this woman thus described was declared “Contrary” or “Exact Opposite” of conventional “Prostitutes.”

Usually, I considered “Opposite of a Prostitute to be a Virgin.” But learning from the Lord Himself in this bible verse in red, I will now consider opposite of a Prostitute to be a “Paid Sex-Matron” (Sugar Mummy or a Lady\Woman who chases men, hires or pays men to have sex with her): — According to this bible verse in red.

Notwithstanding all I have written against the woman chasing the men or paying for sex with her, instead of the vice versa, exception to these is the woman chasing after her husband or paying for her husband to have sex with her like we saw Leah did to Jacob her own husband whom she also hired to sleep with her.

It's abnormal for a woman to chase or hire men for sex with her, but lovely and great for a woman to chase or hire a man to marry her or be her husband, just as Leah after Jacob or as Ruth after Boaz. See this woman as Bride, sought after her Husband, like the Queen of Sheba sought after Solomon and perhaps became one of Solomon's wives\concubines before she returned to Ethiopia: —

[Song 5:6-8 BSB] — "I opened for my beloved, but he had turned and gone. My heart sank at his departure. I sought him but did not find him. I called, but he did not answer. I encountered the watchmen on their rounds of the city. They beat me and bruised me; they took away my cloak, those guardians of the walls. O daughters of Jerusalem, I adjure you, if you find my beloved, tell him I am sick with love.”

The point is that the woman shouldn't have left her Husband only to be chasing after dogs (male prostitutes) she had to pay to sleep with her. Her sin was leaving her Husband, who is the LORD and Fountain of Living Waters, to be chasing other wells (men that are not her husband) that had no true water for her, just as the Samaritan woman by the well, for she had five husbands and yet she chased or hired a man who wasn't her husband to be with her instead of her five husbands - according as the Lord Jesus declared

[Jeremiah 2:11-13 BSB] — "Has a nation ever changed its gods? (Yet they are not gods at all.) But My people have exchanged their Glory for useless idols. Be stunned by this, O heavens; be shocked and utterly appalled,” declares the LORD. “For My people have committed two evils: They have forsaken Me, the fountain of living water, and they have dug their own cisterns— broken cisterns that cannot hold water.”


So you see that a woman who has a husband as a well or cistern with water has no business chasing men or hiring the dogs. But for the rich or financially able woman without a husband, avoid fornication but instead have — buy, hire or pay for your own husband. As a man can buy to have his own wife, so also a woman can buy to have her own husband: all to avoid fornication: —


[1 Corinthians 7:2] — "Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.”


Instead of hiring men to sleep with you, and you pay them; rather hire a man to marry you even if you have to be paying him weekly, monthly or yearly salary for the job of him being just your husband. Forget if he's in it for the money and not for love, provided he performs his job or duties as your husband.

And nothing wrong in becoming a second or third wife, to already married man willing to be your husband also, especially if you are financially able to sustain yourself without relying on dragging the man's money or properties with the other wives. Polygamy can be as wise and spiritual as monogamy: Both are used by the Lord God: He is both the God of Monogamy and the God of Polygamy.

Better still, if you have one or more fellow friends you can share the same husband with, you all can put money or hire together to hire a man to marry you all together as your collective husband.

[Isaiah 4:1 GWN] — "When that day comes, seven women will grab one man and say, "We'll eat our own food and provide our own clothes. Just let us marry you for your name. Take away our disgrace."”

↝ PAYMENTS OF PROSTITUTE’S PRICE↜

[Ezekiel 16:33 FBV] — Normally all prostitutes are paid, but you were the one giving gifts to all your lovers. You even bribed them to come from all around and have sex with you.
⇵
[Ezekiel 16:33 MKJV] — They give a gift to all harlots, but you give your gifts to all your lovers, and bribe them to come to you from all around, for your fornication.
⇵
[Ezekiel 16:33 BBE] — They give payment to all loose women: but you give rewards to your lovers, offering them payment so that they may come to you on every side for your cheap love.

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️



Some people argued about why a man should still pay a prostitute for sex when both of them enjoyed the sex and the man may have done more of the works during the act of fornication. Some even suggest that the woman (the prostitute) should be the one paying instead of the other way round, if atall payment should be made.

Take these three important points and don't forget any:

♧A♧ — It is “God Forbid” to join a member of Christ to a harlot or prostitute by sex or fornication — [1 Corinthians 6:15-18]

♧B♧ — It is “Normal” for a man joined to a harlot or prostitute by sex or fornication to pay or gift her — [Bible verse in red]

♧C♧ — It is “Abnormal or Sickness” when a harlot or prostitute pays or bribes the men to join her in sex or fornication — [tagging this Woman that was already Joined to the Lord but afterwards became the harlot seeking and bribing other male prostitutes to be joined to her].

Obviously the male objects or toys for self-serving sex were not enough anymore for her, and so she now pays to hire or bribe male prostitutes.

However, you must know the Lord God as One who is very strict and sensitive to all forms and all flows of “Payments, Offerings, Gifts or Rewards.” The Lord God is very sensitive and keen to every kind of Transactions and Payments for the sake of His Wisdom, Righteousness and Justice system. As you can see in this bible verse in red, He frowned at the “Offerings” or “Payments” this harlot or hedonist was giving out, instead of receiving in.

When she's the one giving the gifts or payments instead of receiving them like the other prostitutes do, her gifts or payments here are called “Bribes.” “Bribe Price” is the payment a woman gives to have men sleep with her, while “Bride Price” is the payment a man gives to sleep with a virgin, while “Prostitute’s Price” is the payment a man gives to sleep with a prostitute.

Don't forget this: — No one pays for sex more the Lord God pays for sex. The Lord paid or will repay for every sexual intercourse among men and women in all generations.

● The same Lord God would frown at anyone or debtor who refuses or delays to pay for goods or services others rendered in transaction to the debtor.

● The same Lord God would frown at anyone, seller or payer, who uses double standards, false or unbalanced scales for different people when offering and transacting goods or services to them.

● The same Lord God would cut off one's rewards or payment in heaven when or if the person already received the due rewards or payment from men on earth.

● The same Lord God would pay or repay both all the unpaid good and the unpaid evil by and on all souls and spirits.

So, if such Lord God being that sensitive to all forms and all flows of “Payments, Offerings, Gifts or Rewards and Transactions” frowns at the fact that this harlot in the bible verse in red was not getting the payments but instead giving out the payments like a cheerful giver or “Sugar Mummy” to her Escorts — Then this is a very serious matter\concern. Whether those male Prostitutes are called male strippers or dancing bears or escorts or sons of sugar mummies, they are referred to as “Dogs” or “Sodomites” in bible.

It is true that the Lord God loves a “Cheerful Giver” both in offerings and in payments for goods and services: but I tell you, the Lord God does not love this particular kind of cheerful giver in the bible verse in red, neither would He accept offerings or payments from cheerful givers that are still either prostitutes or dogs (male prostitutes). As it is written,

[Deuteronomy 23:18 WEB] — You shall not bring the hire of a prostitute, or the wages of a male prostitute, into the house of Yahweh your God for any vow; for both of these are an abomination to Yahweh your God.

[Deuteronomy 23:18 AMPC] — You shall not bring the hire of a harlot or the price of a dog (a sodomite) into the house of the Lord your God as payment of a vow, for both of these [the gift and the giver] are an abomination to the Lord your God.

↝ HEDONISM IN HIGH PLACES; CRAVING STRANGERS, NOT SILVER — PAID IN PLEASURE, NOT IN GOLD ↜

[Ezekiel 16:32 AMPC] — Rather, you were as an adulterous wife who receives strangers instead of her husband!
⇵
[Ezekiel 16:32 MKJV] — "[Like] the adulterous wife, instead of her husband, she takes strangers.”
⇵
[Ezekiel 16:32 LBP] — And even not as clever as a whorish wife who takes a price from strangers.

I have selected this bible versions here to represent this bible verse in red, because these translations rendered it with the use of comparative words (including — “Like” or “As” and “Rather” or “Instead”): for this bible verse in red is in conjunction with its preceding verse: — Let me express how they would be:

“You built high place in every crossroad, and invested in facilities on every street junction; yet you were not like other prostitutes because you refused to take payments from those your provided your self and services to — Rather, you were as an adulterous wife who receives strangers instead of her husband!”

This means,

●1● — She was not practicing prostitution like a prostitute; but instead, she was practicing prostitution like an adulteress;

●2● — What prostitute regards as payment (that is money or gift) is not what she wants; but instead, what an adulteress wants (that is a taste or longing to feel other strangers’ or other men's joysticks or joysticks different from the taste or feel of her Husband's own) is what she regards as payment enough for her.

"Thus, she was not even craving (lusting) for material things like a prostitute; instead, she was craving (lusting) for sensual things (pleasurable experiences) like a hedonist.”

A prostitute would seek to be richer, but she as hedonist would only seek to be high on pleasures, filled or drunk with different excitements.

Onetime difference between this hedonist and Leah in considering their “Husbands” sleeping with them as their “Hire or Payments” includes: — This hedonist or adulteress considers other strangers (other men) sleeping with her instead of her husband as Payment: while on the other hand, Leah’s payment (for her son's mandrake) was Leah's own husband (Jacob) sleeping with her. As it's written:

[Genesis 30:14-16 FBV] — At the time of the wheat harvest Reuben found some mandrake plants when he was out in the fields. He took them back to his mother Leah. Rachel asked Leah, “Please give me some of the mandrakes your son found.” “Aren't you satisfied with stealing my husband?” Leah replied. “Are you going to take my son's mandrakes too?” “Fine, he can sleep with you tonight if you give me some mandrakes in return,” Rachel responded. When Jacob came in from the fields that evening, Leah went out to meet him. “You have to sleep with me because I've paid for you with my son's mandrakes,” she told him. So he slept with her that night.

Thus, the hedonist fanned Hedonism in High Places; Craving Strangers, Not Silver — Paid in Pleasure, Not in Gold

Ezekiel 16:31: "Actually you weren't even a normal prostitute when you built yourselves pagan shrines at the top of every street and high places of idol worship on every public square— because you refused to be paid for your services!"
