1 Wisdom has built her house; she has set up[a] its seven pillars.

For 2,000 years the Lord has been building His church as His house. The church has a foundation, it is set up on pillars of truth. We have the Bible, a solid rock for us to stand on. Compare this to this current attack on God's people. There is no foundation. They claim they are cancelling people because they are inciting violence. When Trump said "we will walk down there and protest peacefully" they are saying that was "coded language". Yet you can find thousands of posts on Twitter with hashtags about "hang" and "assassinate" and all kinds of hate speech that they don't censor. There is no standard. They are likening 75 million Americans to "Isis". There is no truth to this attack.

2 She has prepared her meat and mixed her wine; she has also set her table.

The Lord Jesus has been sacrificed for us, the table is wide open for any and all who would come.

3 She has sent out her servants, and she calls from the highest point of the city,
4 “Let all who are simple come to my house!” To those who have no sense she says,
5 “Come, eat my food and drink the wine I have mixed.
6 Leave your simple ways and you will live; walk in the way of insight.”


Is this really the way of insight? Look at how powerful Facebook, Twitter, Amazon.com, Apple, and Google are compared to the church. Yes, let's look at that, please, let us really look at that.

The reason they panicked and in 24 hours tried to wipe Parler off of the internet was because they had learned that Trump had set up an account on Parler though it was hidden presumably not to be revealed until the 20th. Trump has 100 million subscribers, when you kick him off your platform you lose 100 million viewers and their participation. How do you explain that to investors. Well, you say that he is only one man, those people will subscribe to others and though there will be a short term cost in the long term it will be better. However, if those 100 million subscribers follow him over to Parler, a site that one year ago had 1 million subscribers, a week ago had 15 million subscribers and now has 115 million subscribers, well your investors will scream in rage. The idiotic management of their investment has driven it into the ground.

But we need Google -- no you don't, use DuckDuckGo -- it is better. But what about the browser? Use Dissenter, it is better than Chrome or Safari. use Rumble instead of Youtube, Use Parler instead of Facebook, use Gab instead of Twitter. There are lots of companies who sell computers and phones that are cheaper than Apple. Not only so do not invest in them, make sure your retirment account or pension account does not invest in them.

But they are threatening to send us to "reeducation camps". Really? 75 million people? I am not aware of any camps that could handle that many people. But look at what they are teaching in the public schools. Yes, I am well aware of what they are teaching in the public schools. For the last year every teacher has had to create an entire curriculum that could be posted online. Half of those teachers are Christians. Pull your kids from the public school, put them in the old "one room school house" at the church, let one person supervise 20 kids and have them work online. There is Khan academy, there are plenty of teachers who can share their curriculum with you for free. There are public libraries full of books, full of documentaries. It is easy to set up a school using these resources. Also, we have retired teachers who can help as well as currently employed teachers who could work part time. If 50% of the public school kids walk out of the school you will let the idiots calling for "reeducation camps" know who is the boss.

What are you worried about we have a house built on the rock. We have a table prepared for us by the Lord. Stop eating the slop that Hollywood and Madison avenue are feeding you.

7 Whoever corrects a mocker invites insults; whoever rebukes the wicked incurs abuse.
8 Do not rebuke mockers or they will hate you; rebuke the wise and they will love you.
9 Instruct the wise and they will be wiser still; teach the righteous and they will add to their learning.


Leave the websites that invite mocking. On Rumble and other sites people read your posts and rate them. If you get a strongly negative score your post is not shown unless a person wants to read it. You let people police the site. You don't need to correct and rebuke others. If you rebuke these mockers they will not say thanks for teaching me something, no, they will hate you because it is not about facts and logic to them. Simply leave these sites, create your own sites.

10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
11 For through wisdom[b] your days will be many, and years will be added to your life.
12 If you are wise, your wisdom will reward you; if you are a mocker, you alone will suffer.


Learn from their mistakes and don't repeat them. These mockers turned their sites into toxic waste dumps. The arrogance and pride has preceded the fall. Let 75 million leave their sites and they will be ridiculed, mocked and despised.

13 Folly is an unruly woman;
she is simple and knows nothing.
14 She sits at the door of her house,
on a seat at the highest point of the city,
15 calling out to those who pass by,
who go straight on their way,
16 “Let all who are simple come to my house!”
To those who have no sense she says,
17 “Stolen water is sweet;
food eaten in secret is delicious!”
18 But little do they know that the dead are there,
that her guests are deep in the realm of the dead.


It is amazing to me how these people know nothing. AOC a congresswoman actually thinks that the three branches of government are the Congress, Senate and President? Their platform is "stolen water is sweet; food eaten secret is delicious". They are pushing reparations. Kamala Harris portrays herself as one who was fighting for civil rights even as a toddler, yet that was proven to be plagiarized. Worse it turns out she is a direct descendant of slave holders, not via rape, but through her parents, grandparents and great grandparents. They portray the republicans as racists and don't even know that Biden spoke the eulogy at a prominent member of the KKK.
