The Devil's greatest tool is distraction. Satan seduces you with distractions that feed your flesh and lead you away from God.

Satans distractions can come in multiple forms. The devil can give you "blessings" such as money, a relationship, etc. that God has not given you because you are not ready and these things can distract you from the Lord.

For Proverbs 20:21 says, "An inheritance claimed too soon will not be blessed at the end."

Satan can also feed into your vices such as alcohol, sex, gossip, immodesty, etc. and you may say "oh well it is not a sin because I do not feel convicted." But the reason you do not feel convicted is because you cannot hear the Lord's voice above feeding the desires of your flesh. An example of this for me was when I practiced witchcraft and told myself "oh it's not a sin because God isn't convicting me." I did not feel convicted because I was serving Satan and not the Lord as a lukewarm Christian. Now when I say "oh I do not feel convicted" because of my relationship with Christ I immediately feel conviction.

Satan can also distract you with realtionships. Bad company corrupts good character and you can become distracted by hanging out with people who do not further your relationship with the Lord. Especially in romantic relationships the most important thing is that you both put the Lord first above each other.

Proverbs 12:26 "The righteous choose their friends carefully, but the way of the wicked leaves them astray."

Proverbs 12:30 "Walk with the wise and become wise, for a companion of fools suffers harm."

1 John 1:6 "If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth."

Lastly the Devil tells you lies. In the garden he told Eve to eat the fruit so that she would become like God. However Eve was already like God as the Lord made us in his image. Genesis 1:27. The Devil will promise to give you things you already have in the Lord. And he will tell you lies easily debunked in the Bible.

If you're ever wondering whether you are hearing from the devil or God if it is untrue, contradicts the Lord's word, and distracts you from your relationship with Jesus, it is from Satan and our own sin NOT THE LORD.

I pray that everyone who reads this comes out of their sin, wanting to have a relationship with God above everything else. Remove sin, relationships, and lies from their life Lord, and make sure that in everything they do they live a righteous life FOR YOU. For You love them so very much and I want them to experience that love instead of the destruction that comes from Satan's lies. Amen.

The Faithful and True Witness

14 "And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write: `These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God: 15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot; I would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew thee out of My mouth. 17 Because thou sayest, "I am rich and increased with goods and have need of nothing," and knowest not that thou art wretched and miserable, and poor and blind and naked, 18 I counsel thee to buy from Me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich, and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed and thatthe shame of thy nakedness may not appear, and anoint thine eyes with eye salve, that thou mayest see. 19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. — Revelation 3:14-19 | Third Millennium Bible (TMB) Third Millennium Bible, New Authorized Version, Copyright 1998 by Deuel Enterprises, Inc.

conservatives came for abortion and people said they wouldn't be satisfied with just taking that away but the mainstream Christians assured us, all they care about is abortion and they won't touch anything else but sure enough now they're going after birth control, IVF, all kinds of reproductive health care used by millions and millions of people and the evangelicals who said this wouldn't happen just sit there talking about their stupid fucking sourdough starters while the democratic party refuses to push any candidate other that refried beans for brains Joe Biden so those of us with uteruses get to sit here wondering when it'll be illegal for us to hold credit cards in our name again like

Lifting From Being A Lukewarm: (How-To Not Be A Lukewarm)

A lot of Christians are Lukewarm, and sadly most don't know it nor know what is a Lukewarm.

But what even is a "Lukewarm Christian?"

A Lukewarm is someone who claims Jesus, but their actions do not show. They are not dark or light they are the grey. They are not the hot nor cold. They are the in between.

A Lukewarm could be someone who goes to church but continues to drink, smoke, watch p*rn.

Many Christians fall into being a Lukewarm. I my self was a Lukewarm, and sometimes still am.

Below are some signs that you may be a Lukewarm:

You have lost your desire to pray, worship God, or read The Bible.

You claim to follow Jesus but you don't feel as you need him.

You attend church but you rarely apply from teachings, and preaching.

You look for reasons why you don't have to go to church, pray, or read the bible.

You feel largely disconnected from God.

Don't panic if you are a Lukewarm you can always turn back to God. There are plenty of ways to turn back which will help you get to heaven.

One way to turn back is to repent from your sins. Repenting is super easy and really helps you to go to heaven. Repenting is simple you just get into a quiet room and pray. A simple prayer is: "Dear Lord, please forgive me for I'm very sorry I have sinned. I wish to repent from my sins, and not to sin. I love you, amen." You don't have to use this prayer, but say a prayer similar.

Another way is to spread the Gospel. Sadly, not a lot of us Christians do this. But it is very easy to do. Spreading the Gospel is like spreading the word of Jesus and spreading Christianity. I will soon come out with a blog with ways to spread the Gospel. (Coming no later than March 15th, 2024.)

Another way is to pray less about things that you want. It's fine to pray about things you want but make sure you don't do it that often and pray more about thanking God for stuff.

If a doctor said being ill is fine than we would say he is a not a real doctor.

When a pastor saids that it is fine to be in sin, can we not draw the same conclusion about him not being a real pastor?

The Faithful and True Witness

14 “To the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write:

“The Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Beginning of the creation of God, says these things: 15 I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were cold or hot. 16 So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spit you out of My mouth. 17 For you say, ‘I am rich, and have stored up goods, and have need of nothing,’ yet do not realize that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked. 18 I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined by fire, that you may be rich, and white garments, that you may be dressed, that the shame of your nakedness may not appear, and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see.

19 “Those whom I love, I rebuke and discipline. Therefore be zealous and repent. — Revelation 3:14-19 | Modern English Version (MEV) The Holy Bible, Modern English Version.

When I see a false teacher, I wanna throw an apple at them. Because the apple was as much a symbol of deception as the serpent.
