“It is worth recognizing that the Roswell event occurred one year after the Thelemic ritual in the Mojave Desert, as well as a huge increase in UFO sightings that continue to this day. The story of L. Ron Hubbard and Jack Parsons’ Babalon Working illustrates that the nature of the UFO phenomenon is more profound than the majority living today realize.”

“I’ve thought about him a lot throughout my life. Like pain for a phantom limb, absent fathers have a really cute way of invading your thoughts. Father’s Day? Not my favorite. Even those sneaky questions at the doctor’s office. Father’s health history? Um, bad at commitment but with a formidable libido?”

“One of the best ways to interpret what the Bible says about our future is to examine ancient prophecies, determine how they were explained and fulfilled, and apply that understanding to prophecies that have yet to be fulfilled.”

“Fear is passive, it's reactionary. Anger is active, it's an offensive strike, it's the original hot take. My entire life, I so badly wanted to protect that powerless kid, the one who felt pushed around by the world and everyone in it. If the world was unfair, then I could be unfair right back, I'd show anyone who tried to disrespect me, belittle me, anyone who tried to treat me like the kid that I was instead of the man of my house, which I ALSO was, to regret ever looking at me the wrong way.”

“We're all playing catch up. From the moment we're born we're the beneficiaries of millennia of struggle. We've been inherited the best and worst of everyone who came before us, we had no say in the matter. We didn't elect to be born, pick our parents, our circumstances, or our environment. People we've never met, people we've never even thought about, all had a hand in the hand we were dealt and it's our job, as far as I can tell, to correct the bad behavior of everyone who came before us.”

“we should be preparing now while we are still able to do so. After all, it is far better to be needlessly prepared than to be regretfully unprepared.”

“A surprise is a birthday party, a mistake is a DUI. A surprise is a winning lotto ticket, a mistake is getting caught smuggling drugs at the airport. They’re two very different things, and yet somehow, me being born can be categorized as both. It’s interesting to be able to assign different words to the same thing and have them both be true.”

“rituals the ancient Levitical priests had to perform before being allowed to be in the presence of YHWH, which equates to modern-day baptism in Christianity.[29]”

“However, qedem can also mean ancient, aforetime, earliest time, and beginning, among others.[5] The word qedem is used to describe an attribute of God in other places of Scripture. “The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee; and shall say, Destroy them.” Deuteronomy 33:27 In this verse, the word “eternal” was translated from the Hebrew word qedem. This shows the timeless attribute of God.”

“I believe that Thanatos and Hades will bring a worldwide pandemic, which could be Ebola but could also be a new, engineered disease. Ordo ab Chao, Order out of Chaos is the watch phrase for those in power who seek to transform the Earth into One Governed Body. A worldwide pandemic would serve their purposes by eliminating large portions of the population (Thanatos is given power to kill 25% of humanity), and it would pave the way for strict controls over commerce and travel.”

“As sure as the tough times are coming, the good times are coming too. Joy will come as quickly and as strong as sadness will and the cycle will repeat in a beautifully fucked-up ballet of ups and downs till the sun eats the earth. But I now know one thing for sure: The hard times are here to teach us, and the good times are to remind us what we're fighting for.”

“Former unbelievers who respond positively to the Gospel before entering eternity will never need to have any part in the eternally burning Lake of Fire. Anyone can make today be the day he or she chooses to cast his or her sins on the cross, just as the children of Israel cast their sacrifices for sins on the altar, and allow Jesus to bear the burden. His death, burial, and resurrection have already taken place. The work is already finished. All a person needs to do now is trust Jesus for salvation. It doesn’t get any simpler than that.”

“to eat the fruit from the Tree of Life after they fell, they would have been in an eternal state of death. They would have been comparable to the unredeemable Serpent who first tempted them into rebellion. They would have had no chance of redemption.”

“Funny thing about taking your life into your own hands, though, is once you have it, there’s no one to blame. It’s now solely your responsibility to make something happen and if it all falls apart, well, that’s on you.”

“we can look back to the time of the 200 watchers to understand what is happening. In ancient times, the fallen angels presented themselves as gods. Today, they are presenting themselves as a superior race of alien beings from another planet. It is the same deception they have always promulgated. The only difference is the packaging.”

“I (Josh) like to look at it this way: Imagine that after this life, you are standing in front of Jesus. All of your deed - both what you did for yourself and what you did to serve Jesus - are represented as a stack of wood, hay, and straw. You assume there are probably some jewels and gold in there, too. All of a sudden, a huge fire comes down and burns all the wood, hay, and straw, leaving behind only the things you did for Jesus: the only things that could not be burned. You look down in surprise to see a pile of gold and jewels small enough to fit in the palm of your hand.

You walk up to that small pile, your deeds for Jesus throughout your entire life, and you scoop them up. You approach Jesus on His throne. You see the scars in His hands and on His feet: the evidence of what He has done for you with His life. You hold out your hand to Jesus, present Him with your small handful of jewels and gold, and the only thing you can muster to say is the honest, yet tragic confession, "I love you this much.”

“He told how He longed to gather them all beneath His ‘wings’ (pinions) as a hen would gather her chicks to protect them, but that ‘they would not’. During the Tribulation period, Christ will supernaturally protect His own”

“And he said to them, “Is a lamp brought in to be put under a basket, or under a bed, and not on a stand? For nothing is hidden except to be made manifest; nor is anything secret except to come to light. If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.” And he said to them, “Pay attention to what you hear: with the measure you use, it will be measured to you, and still more will be added to you. For to the one who has, more will be given, and from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away.” (Mark 4:21–25, NET)”
