Arguing with a Fool

Fable: DON'T ARGUE WITH “DONKEYS”

The donkey said to the tiger:

- "The grass is blue".

The tiger replied:

- "No, the grass is green."

The discussion heated up, and the two decided to submit him to arbitration, and for this they went before the lion, the King of the Jungle.

Already before reaching the forest clearing, where the lion was sitting on his throne, the donkey began to shout:

- "His Highness, is it true that the grass is blue?".

The lion replied:

- "True, the grass is blue."

The donkey hurried and continued:

- "The tiger disagrees with me and contradicts and annoys me, please punish him."

The king then declared:

- "The tiger will be punished with 5 years of silence."

The donkey jumped cheerfully and went on his way, content and repeating:

- "The Grass Is Blue"...

The tiger accepted his punishment, but before he asked the lion:

- "Your Majesty, why have you punished me?, after all, the grass is green."

The lion replied:

- "In fact, the grass is green."

The tiger asked:

- "So why are you punishing me?".

The lion replied:

- "That has nothing to do with the question of whether the grass is blue or green.

The punishment is because it is not possible for a brave and intelligent creature like you to waste time arguing with a donkey, and on top of that come and bother me with that question."

The worst waste of time is arguing with the fool and fanatic who does not care about truth or reality, but only the victory of his beliefs and illusions. Never waste time on arguments that don't make sense...

There are people who, no matter how much evidence and evidence we present to them, are not in the capacity to understand, and others are blinded by ego, hatred and resentment, and all they want is to be right even if they are not.

When ignorance screams, intelligence is silent. Your peace and quiet are worth more.

Prosperity Preachers Only Love Their Popularity

The prosperity preacher will tell the one whose house is floating away in the flood that they caused it by not having enough faith. They undermine the principles that trials build character and faith when we know God has a purpose in all things.

Romans 8:28

"28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose."

James 1:2-4 "2 Consider it all joy, my brothers and sisters, when you encounter various trials,

3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.

4 And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing."

The prosperity preacher's focus is on our own inner power to cause things to happen not on God's purposes that create strength and beauty in the soul of one who trusts in Him. This power within ourselves is pagan thinking and fully apposed to God's Word.

The prosperity preacher would have told Christ He didn't have enough faith because He went to the cross.

Friend or Frenemy?

Yep, just because someone is nice to you does not

mean they are worthy of your trust. Time will tell

as you interact with them whether or not they are

a friend or foe. Do not be guilted by our culture

into making friends with those who do not love

God, they will only bring unnecessary trouble.

James 4:4 "4 You adulteresses!

Do you not know that friendship with the world

is hostility toward God?

Therefore, whoever chooses to be a friend of the

world renders himself an enemy of God."
