Forget constantine lovers

In A.D. 64 under the Emperor Nero the Christians were persecuted heavily. The Emperor Nero hated Christians so much it is stated that Nero was responsible for the great fire in Rome destroying much of Rome. The reason why the Christians were persecuted was because they stood up against the pagans—standing up for God and their brothers and sisters, and over time small wars broke out and the Christians began to fight back.

In A.D. 312 in the battle of Milvian Bridge, Constantine 1 and the Christians were together on the battlefield. Constantine 1 had a vision, and out of that vision he had come to use the labarum – in Greek, “Chi-Rho” which is the first two Greek letters of the word “Christ.” With the Christians, in battle, Constantine 1 won that battle.

In A.D. 313 Constantine announced “that it was proper that the Christians and all others should have liberty to follow that mode of religion which to each of them appeared best”[1] also, Constantine’s laws enforced and reflected his Christian reforms. Still, crucifixion was abolished for reasons of Christian piety, but was replaced with hangings, to show there was Roman law and justice.

When Constantine 1 became the Emperor, the Christians and the pagans were at full war with each other and it was tearing Rome apart. In A.D. 325 the Roman Emperor Constantine 1 had asked the Christian bishops to come together under what is known as the first Council of Nicaea (present-day Iznik in Turkey) for the purpose of uniting the pagans and Christians.

This was to stop the battling and killing within his Empire; to unify everyone under the title “Christian.” The Council of Nicaea had nothing to do with the deity of Jesus. It was to stop Christians from being Christian of carrying the cross and battling into being part of pagans so the two can work together… to hold hands!

In return Constantine 1 created a new central, a Christian city for the Roman Empire at Byzantium (Constantinople [later, Istanbul]). This is how every “Christian” holiday we presently have has a pagan background. Even the definition of Christian changed: no more carry your cross (to die for)… instead, all you have to do is believe. Add in the Beast being the government, Rome being one of the Beasts – Christians laid in bed with the Beast by being bought off. Today it is the 501c3 tax-exempt incorporated church.

Today… we wonder why God is NOT helping us. I’m sorry… (God = el = might, power, strength) your god Satan might be helping you, but the Forefather “GOD” is not! Look around… are your neighborhoods filled with Heaven or is it filled with stealing, killing, and destruction?

Revelation 13:4-7 ( KJV ) 4And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?

Revelation 13:16-17 ( KJV ) 16And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

Revelation 14:9-10 ( KJV ) 9And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, 10The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:

Who is tired as I am looking at our brothers and sisters falling in the trap with the Beast? Muslims, why do you want reparations from the Beast? Does not Islam mean the absolute submission of our Father God of Abraham? Then why are you begging from the Beast?

Teachers, why do you cry because the Beast has taken your jobs – where is your trust in the Forefather… start your own school and separate from the Beast, honor it to the Forefather. People out of work, where is your trust in the Forefather… what gift do you have… start a trade with each other and F*ck the Beast.

My People, if you want a leader… Lead your a** away from the Beast who is full of Satan and who does not care for you. Take back your neighborhood by trusting the Father of Jesus, of Moses, of Abraham, of Adam… the Forefather!!! Start to love the Forefather to the point of dying and stand for your neighborhoods… repent, and look towards the Forefather and start to have dominion on this damn Earth.
