I write as the Lord Jesus tells me to say. I read on Facebook, “the easiest way to control people is thru fear” and “if you want to stay home, stay home”, “if you want to wear a mask, wear a mask”, “if you want to avoid large crowds, avoid large crowds”, “ I am not required to descend into poverty for you”, “I am not required to abstain from human contact for you”, “I am not required to shop alone without my kids for you”, “I refuse to participate in quarantine life”, while many are fighting for their life & have lost it because of COVID-19 while Americans, & even Christian Americans, are fighting for their Constitutional rights & Bill of Rights according to their health & wellbeing & not sick. But Jesus said,
“Fear God” who is to control His children in covenant with His Son Jesus as Lord & God in their flesh with His Father the LORD God who also said, “Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except from God, & the authorities that exist are appointed by God. Therefore, whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, & those who resist will bring judgment on themselves.”
And Jesus said,
“This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.” And,
“You are My friends if you do whatever I command you.”
Many people believe the government is spreading fear with conspiracy theories while others going out in public are contracting the virus & getting sick & several are dying while government is working to prevent the spread & save lives until the pandemic shows signs of subsiding & it is safe to go back out into the world & conduct business as usual yet Christians & the world are spreading much anger against government with our Bill of Rights & Constitution & causing others to be angry along with them instead of gathering all the Truth & evidence & speaking it to government in Jesus’s name as Lord & God for the sake of His Light & Life & peace & stillness & calm in the storm & our healing, no matter the world. For all this anger & frustration & financial concerns & conspiracy theories should be gathered & written to government in power with organized reports of Truth with your name & the Lord’s & speak that on Facebook for all the world to see & hear in Jesus’s name, who also said,
“This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends. You are My friends if you do whatever I command you.” And all this stirring of the waters by Christians is not of Christ but of the world. Jesus said,
“He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather (the Truth) with Me scatters abroad.”
The History of the 1918 Flu Pandemic
reads just about the same as we are suffering today saying, “While the 1918 H1N1 virus has been synthesized & evaluated, the properties that made it so devastating are not well understood. With no vaccine to protect against influenza infection & no antibiotics to treat secondary bacterial infections that can be associated with influenza infections, control efforts worldwide were limited to non-pharmaceutical interventions such as isolation, quarantine, good personal hygiene, use of disinfectants, & limitations of public gatherings, which were applied unevenly.”

Citizens were ordered to wear masks, schools, theaters & businesses were shuttered & bodies piled up in makeshift morgues before the virus ended its deadly global march.”
