Those who live in "conspiracy land" constantly looking for muck to rake up to worry about miss the fact that God gave us all we need to know in the Bible. When something walks in front of us that validates the Word we can see it, there is no need to constantly be seeking out the newest conspiracy or rank gossip.
By the way, why would anyone do that, look and look and look to see what muck to rake up? My guess is that they enjoy it, but what do they do with it? They pass it on to someone else to help them worry too.
Sadly many people who do this come to erroneous conclusions of what the mark of the beast is that is different from what God said it is, which is a mark in the hand or forehead. Nowhere does God say it was a jab in the arm. And, born again believers need not worry about it because they will not do it. No born again believer who comes to Christ after the rapture will take the mark. Anyone who does was never born again authentically, they would be the pretenders.
There is pride involved in wanting to know the latest muck as though there is special knowledge making the one who found it feel a sense of superiority. This is called "Gnosticism", the desire for knowledge for no other purpose than for the sake of knowledge itself.
I hear phrases all the time like; "we need to be educated and know this", I beg to differ, we do not need to know things that we can do nothing about or change in any way. Just knowing does nothing, passing it on to destroy the peace of others only destroys a believer's spiritual walk with Christ, keeping them fixated on all the muck instead of praising God in gratefulness.
Just knowing something is nothing, and may even be a deterrent to the gospel, a monstrous distraction.
1 Corinthians 8:1 "Now concerning food sacrificed to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge makes one conceited, but love edifies people."
Boasting of the latest knowledge that no one can do anything about is of no value at all in the edification of the believer.
God said no one will stop what is prophesied. He did say too that when we see these things "look up" with expectancy at our home going. He did not say look all around making sure everyone knows the muck.
Luke 21:28
"28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh."
Ephesians 4:29
“Let no unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building up the one in need and bringing grace to those who listen.”
I consider the continual conspiracy talk unwholesome, raking up muck to frighten the believer is a distraction to walking with Christ. It s a wrong focus!!!
