Come And See
When He opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, “Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, a pale horse. And the name of him who sat on it was Death, and Hades followed with him. And [f]power was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword, with hunger, with death, and by the beasts of the earth.
-Revelation 6:7-8
I don’t want you to look away. This will be a car crash and you shouldn’t avert your eyes. You will be so aware your life will be changed forever. Being shaken up and having to swallow our reality is like taking medicine. It will be good for you. You may have to take your time to adjust to your new perception of reality. And you will probably become very depressed or angry. This is the correct emotional response to our current situation. But it is just that emotional.
“During WWII, a Belarusian boy is thrust into the atrocities of war, fighting with a hopelessly unequipped Soviet resistance movement against ruthless German forces. Witnessing scenes of abject terror and surviving horrifying situations, he loses his innocence and then his mind.”
One Beauty
beauty is an ultimate value—something that we pursue for its own sake, and for the pursuit of which no further reason need be given. Beauty should therefore be compared to truth and goodness, one member of a trio of ultimate values which justify our rational inclinations.” ― Roger Scruton, Beauty: A Very Short Introduction
Just as the Belarusian boy looks at war in an exciting way until he has to go through it. So also will you once you realize you are living for nothing, and working for the devil. As a child you were so excited to grow up. And even now you are probably excited for career advancement or other things like that. This disgusting culture, there is no more beauty. Everything is dripping with filth, it’s so boring and sickening. Where is what the heart wants? Architecture built for God. Paintings of lovers in rare gardens. You can’t shield your eyes from all they destroy. They want you to watch helplessly. Build something timeless and they will fire alarm clocks at it.
We must still strive for something greater. Stop producing disposable litter. Make something that moves the hearts of men. Fags be like ” why don’t you do something useful for your time?” Like what, be a slave? No thanks. Yeah I’ll just work to make straight and smooth the path of the AntiChrist. You should be working hard, but your output should be noble and life bringing. Not the same trash millions produce every business day. I want blood, sweat, and tears in your craft. Strive to make your rags at least presentable before a king. Let alone your savior. You will have to answer for how you spent your time on Earth. What will you say?
So, come and see, the decadence that pollute our world. Stay alert so that it won’t seep into your soul and twist your heart.
