Love Letter to the Hoodwinked
“Then Yahusha said to those Yahudim who believed Him, ‘If you stay in My word, you are truly My talmidim, and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.’” John 8:31-32
Deception and delusion are the way of this world; a constructed web of lies as demonstrated in movies like The Matrix and The Truman Show. Hollywood and the entertainment industry have no qualms showing their audience just how fabricated this world system has become. However, only some have an eye to see and ears to hear.
Like the world, so the people.
From birth to adulthood, we are placed in a “factory” of sorts. One that molds the mindset, creating a people to think and to act in the way of the world. If you do not have another mindset or system of beliefs, you are then molded to think in the manner prescribed by the “powers that be.” Sometimes, I feel like humanity has become automatons, doing the same thing year after year, generation after generation without ever questioning their actions or the root source of their beliefs. Why do they celebrate this? Why do they commemorate that? The surface response is always taken at face value, with only a choice few going deeper and transforming their beliefs and behaviors accordingly.
If you are resistant to my words, ask yourself why you think the way you do.
Is there original thought?
Do you not simply latch on to certain thought streams and go with them because they seemingly sit right with your belief system?
I liken this to cells in the human body. Whatever message is transcribed from the DNA within the cell nucleus, becomes the instruction that is followed by the various systems within the body. The DNA here represents your system of beliefs, which is the command center for how you think and behave. Don’t let anyone fool you, even an atheist has a system of beliefs. Whether their belief is in the words of NASA’s scientists or the words of say, Richard Dawkins, Stephen Hawking, or any number of the world’s “scientific” think tanks.
The fact remains, the current populous of earth are contemporary - none of them existed in the “beginning.” Therefore, anyone daring to create theories about the “beginning” should be looked at under a microscope, just as they skeptically look at and dissect spiritual books.
One thing is for certain - whatever you believe to be truth, by default rejects all other opposing points of view as fabrications.
We can’t all be right.
How then do we determine what is truth? How do we keep ourselves from being deceived?
I believe the answer lies in seeking knowledge of the truth. This requires you to do something. There was and is a lot of work being done to deceive the masses in order to have dominion and control over them, therefore get your shovel and start digging. Start with the things that never quite sat well with you and work your way through to the topics of universal contention.
Dig.
Dig.
Dig.
“Ask, and it shall be given to you, seek, and you shall find, knock, and it shall be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it shall be opened. Or what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent? If you then, being wicked, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father who is in the shamayim give what is good to those who ask Him!” Matthew 7:7-11
If you search for truth with a pure and sincere heart, the results will astound you just as they did and continue to do me.
May you find the Truth that makes free.
