Repentance, Blizzards and Gardens

Sin is misdirected, distorted and deformed desire. And this whole story of the garden is a tale of such sin.

Debunking Rapture, Discerning the Times

To be “taken” is a metaphor of judgement. And to “remain” is a metaphor of salvation.

Slaughter of the Holy Innocents … again

From the manger to a mass grave, from joy to the world to inconsolable wailing, from proclamations of peace to cold blooded death squads, … in a matter of days.
