“In this world, shipmates, sin that pays its way can travel freely and without a passport; whereas Virtue, if a pauper, is stopped at all frontiers....
“...being an anointed pilot-prophet, or speaker of true things and bidden by the Lord to sound those unwelcome truths in the ears of a wicked Nineveh, Jonah, appalled at the hostility he should raise, fled from his mission, and sought to escape his duty and his God by taking ship at Joppa. But God is everywhere; Tarshish he never reached. As we have seen, God came upon him in the whale, and swallowed him down to living gulfs of doom, and with swift slantings tore him along ‘into the midst of the seas,’ where the eddying depths sucked him ten thousand fathoms down, and ‘the weeds were wrapped about his head,’ and all the watery world of woe bowled over him.
“Yet even then beyond the reach of any plummet- ‘out of the belly of hell’- when the whale grounded upon the ocean’s utmost bones, even then, God heard the engulphed, repenting prophet when he cried. Then God spake unto the fish; and from the shuddering cold and blackness of the sea, the whale came breeching up towards the warm and pleasant sun, and all the delights of air and earth; and ‘vomited out Jonah upon the dry land;’ when the word of the Lord came a second time; and Jonah, bruised and beaten- his ears, like two sea-shells, still multitudinously murmuring of the ocean- Jonah did the Almighty’s bidding.
“And what was that, shipmates? To preach the Truth to the face of Falsehood! That was it!
“...Delight is to him, who gives no quarter in the truth, and kills, burns, and destroys all sin though he pluck it out from under the robes of Senators and Judges. Delight,- top-gallant delight is to him, who acknowledges no law or lord, but the Lord his God, and is only a patriot to heaven. Delight is to him, whom all the waves of the billows of the seas of the boisterous mob can never shake from this sure Keel of the Ages. And eternal delight and deliciousness will be his, who coming to lay him down, can say with his final breath- O Father!- chiefly known to me by Thy rod- mortal or immortal, here I die. I have striven to be Thine, more than to be this world’s, or mine own. Yet this is nothing: I leave eternity to Thee; for what is man that he should live out the lifetime of his God?”

Out “beyond the trees”, FRpers are asking questions; why are the rats running scared?

Woke-ism, multiculturalism, all the -isms — they're not who America is. They distort our glorious founding and what this country is all about. Our enemies stoke these divisions because they know they make us weaker. pic.twitter.com/Mu97xCgxfS— Secretary Pompeo (@SecPompeo) January 19, 2021

Had not known of some of these.
"Q teaches New Age/Gnostic beliefs". No. It *resembles* gnosticism because Q knows secrets we don't. But not about God, as the Gnostic heretics, instead, knowledge of conspiracies.
By shining light on the conspiracies, he enables the common people to resist them.
Drop 4541 is not Q, but a quote from someone else's letter to the President. "Humanity is good" is taken out of context; in context, it implies the mass of humanity is not the Deep State, the Cabal, but misled by them.
If you don’t know, you don’t belong on this thread.
Sod off, Swampy.

"The best is yet to come" was not a thing in 2017. But, I think this video was from around Jan 6 or so of 2021.

I need to make a popcorn run. I hope this is it and the chatter about taking over all media to broadcast the truth is accurate as well.
