Dear Compass,
You have often referred to either not being able to lose your salvation or not being able to earn it. Since you also purport to believe in total inerrancy of Scripture, what do you do with the following verse?
Because you have kept the word of My perseverance, I also will keep you from the hour of testing . . . —Revelation 3:10
As I read it, there is a direct connection between what you do and who goes to heaven. Am I wrong?
At first glance, based on the way that verse has been traditionally translated, it would seem to support a works doctrine. However, careful examination of the Greek shows that it was improperly punctuated.
To save valuable space on the parchment, the ancient Greek and Hebrew manuscripts were written in all caps with no punctuation. Punctuation was assumed. This, of course, caused problems when translating the text to other languages. Punctuation had to be added based on the translators' opinion.
As an example, consider this sentence written without punctuation:
"I ATE BREAKFAST BECAUSE I WAS HUNGRY I READ THE NEWSPAPER."
By adding punctuation, it could be incorrectly translated to say:
"I ate breakfast. Because I was hungry I read the newspaper."
Or it could be properly translated to say, "I ate breakfast because I was hungry. I read the newspaper."
This is exactly what happened when the translators translated Revelation 3:10. It was simply human error.
In the original Greek, following proper sentence construction, "because you have kept the word of My perseverance" should be linked to the preceding phrase (verse 9), not the following phrase (verse 10). No period should have been inserted after ". . . I have loved you." Rather, a comma could be inserted or no punctuation at all.
Also, adhering to proper exegesis, "because" could easily be translated "for." 96% of the translations of that word were translated "for." To translate it "because," the translators used a "suspensive use" of the word, allegedly to make it read better. And "kept" could be translated "obeyed." So, making all the adjustments, the verse should read:
Verses 9-10 . . . I will make them come and bow down at your feet, and make them know that I have loved you(,) (for) you have (obeyed) the word of My perseverance. I also will keep you from the hour of testing, that hour which is about to come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell upon the earth.
Paraphrased: I will rapture you before I would let you enter into tribulation, or, through death, you will miss tribulation.
And, with the correct translation, there is no "salvation by works" doctrine in that verse.

Ed Dowd recently released a 45-page report of his shocking findings on UK excess deaths. He used readily available government statistics from the U.K.’s Office for National Statistics. He has to use UK data because the USA data is being hidden, censored.
There is no reason to believe the USA percentages are any different. And note that this is just cancer, not heart or any of the myriads of other excess death causes.
Summary: The study’s results in the rate of cancer deaths above the historic norm in 2022 for ages 15-44 in the U.K. included:
Let's see now, if the va((ines don't work, and hundreds of thousands of people have died or been severely injured for life after they took them... why is our government buying them and continuing to push them? Because we're not in Kansas anymore!
Which makes us suspicious of all those va((ines, as Dr. Mercola articulates...
Conclusion -- more and more people believe ALL va((ines are fundamentally flawed and come with huge risks. Yet they haven't given up on making them the law of the land!
In 1973 Israel was attacked in the Yom Kippur War. The price of gas basically quadrupled, when you could find it or had the time to wait in line.
In 1979 the Iranian Revolution began and crude oil prices tripled, as did gas.
In 1990 Iraq invaded Kuwait and oil prices doubled.
Since 40% of the world's oil supply comes from the Middle East, and most of that oil comes through the easily blocked Strait of Hormuz, this latest "terrorist" attack has the potential to shoot gas prices sky-high. And our government, for no good reason, has already put policies in place that have caused tight oil supplies. So, for what it's worth, consider filling your gas tank when it gets to half-full.
So now we can see that the "Mayday" calls from aircraft have shot up after the va((inations began... big time... 386%! I wonder what in the world could have caused this sudden uptick? Hmmm...

We all knew this would eventually happen. You have to do all the right things to use the Internet. It'll be interesting if this happens before the Rapture. Probably not, but could.
Chinese police and national security agents raided a Christian worship service in the nation’s Sichuan province last week and arrested 13 believers.
Among those arrested in the November 9 raid were Elder Li Yingqiang and Pastor Dai Zhichao of Chengdu Early Rain Covenant Church, an independent Christian church regularly harassed by the Chinese Communist Party.

Newly released footage of Matthew Perna (seen in red sweatshirt in video) shows Matthew walking calmly into the capital on January 6, 2021. The Department of Justice led him to believe he would get 6 to 12 months in jail if he pleaded guilty. After he pleaded guilty, the DOJ decided to enhance the charge adding a TERRORISM enhancement to his sentencing. Now he could get 10 years plus. Hearing what was ahead for him, he committed suicide. Hell is not hot enough for some people.

This info is offered because last week I apparently raised some eyebrows saying we'd been living in a managed world for 60+ years. Now we find out that doctors who treated President Kennedy after he was assassinated knew full well that there was more than one shooter. But they were censored.
President Eisenhower saw the problem before Kennedy.
“In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.
“We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes.”

There’s documented evidence of death and severe injuries linked with Gardasil HPV va((ine. It contains aluminum, a well-known cell killer. It creates harmful molecules called reactive oxygen species, misleads the immune system to become overreactive to our body components, damages the energy supply chain, and is toxic to our DNA.
Bad news for the double-va((inated!

Bill Gates To The Rescue
The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has given $23.6 million to U.S.-based life science company Micron Biomedical to fund the first-ever mass production of needle-free vaccine technology. The technology works by delivering the vaccine via dissolvable microneedles attached to the skin on a patch-like device. Global health experts have long argued for the potential of similar technology to boost the uptake of life-saving shots.
It is simpler to transport and administer than traditional injections, particularly in low-income countries where reaching all of the children who need vaccines remains challenging. But scaling up production has been a hurdle.
It reduces the need for a cold chain for distribution and does not require a trained professional to give the vaccine. It could also help those with a fear of injections, the company said in a statement on Thursday.
The company has had several other grants from Gates, to help deliver the technology to “underserved populations around the world”, Micron’s CEO Steven Damon said.

This is not funny nor harmless. This godless movement shouldn't be ignored. The Satanic Temple (TST) has more than 266,000 followers on Facebook and posted a colorful flyer saying "Hey Kids! Let's have Fun at After School Satan Club!" Don't let your children or grandchildren near this.
The jury is still out on this guy because there are reports he was trained by Klaus at the World Economic Forum. Time will tell. The upside is that Argentina's populous is sick and tired of the unkept promises of socialism.
Never sneer at what is going on in Europe!
Probably not, but the fact that others are watching for the post-Rapture Israel peace treaty is interesting. The real Biblical treaty will be between Israel and 10 nations...5 European and 5 Middle Eastern. And what's happening in Gaza could be part of the reason Israel DEMANDS it (from a strength position after she has defeated Russia's and Iran's Ezek. 38/39 post-Rapture attack).
Dr. Mercola's Analysis
If you thought mRNA injections were the craziest things the vaccine industry has cooked up lately, you haven’t seen the half of it yet. Up next, we have so-called "immunization DNA" or iDNA,1,2 a novel class of gene therapy "vaccines" that encodes for the whole virus.
It’s like mRNA, but on steroids. Rather than instructing your cells to produce a small portion, the spike protein of a given virus, iDNA products instruct cells to produce the virus in its entirety. Essentially, the IDNA plasmid turns cells in the va((ine recipient into the cell-scale factories for manufacturing of live-attenuated va((ine.
Oh joy. Considering the shocking harms mRNA injections are causing, which instruct your body to create just a small portion of a virus that has no capacity to self-replicate, what could conceivably happen if we start injecting DNA that causes your cells to churn out replication-competent live virus?
(BP translation--If mRNA va((ines are bad for your health, iRNA va((ines are 1000 times worse! Beware!)
