Lately, I’ve been paying close attention to the state of social freedom, especially freedom of speech. In China’s political environment, citizens may appear to have access to the internet and the ability to express opinions, but these freedoms are actually tightly controlled. The relationship between media, businesses, and government is complex and intertwined, and companies often participate in managing public opinion and citizens’ behavior under government pressure.

I use the term “Later Qing” as a metaphor. It’s a satirical way to describe a certain trend: on the surface, society seems open and free, and people seem to have choices in their careers or expressions, but in reality, power has become centralized. The government controls citizens indirectly through corporations. Companies, with government approval, can force workers to labor 12-14 hours a day in two shifts, leaving individuals with no real choice. What appears as “freedom” in such a system is often just a facade—a form of illusion.

This reminds me of the biblical reminder about truth and freedom: “Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” (John 8:32)

When power becomes overly concentrated and corporations act as enforcers of the state, individual freedom and dignity can be stripped away. People may live in a society that looks free, yet feel trapped in invisible cages, working hard and following rules without truly being able to choose their own lives.

“Later Qing” is not only a historical metaphor but also a warning: societies must be vigilant against freedoms being formalized and personal rights being stripped away. Even in technologically advanced and seemingly open societies, true freedom comes from citizens’ ability to choose their lives and express themselves, not from a fake freedom imposed by power or economic forces.

I share this because I hope to remind everyone: freedom of speech is not guaranteed, and what appears to be freedom can hide enormous control and oppression. Only by safeguarding truth, conscience, and dignity can society avoid sliding into a “Later Qing” state.

“For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:” (1 Corinthians 15:3-4)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_VRT2FFXntc (Are you 100% sure you're saved?)

Jesus Christ is God who came to earth from heaven in the flesh. He died as a sinless sacrifice for the sins of the whole world to save you from eternal hell, the punishment for sin. He was buried, then resurrected and is now in heaven. Put your faith in the blood atonement of Jesus Christ, which is sufficient to wash your soul from all sin eternally no matter how miserable you are or what kind of sin you're involved in. Let go of the faith you have in your own effort. "And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand." (John 10:28) Only God can save you, but you have a choice. Your works (like trying to not sin, loving deeds, praying etc.) can NEVER justify you, nothing you do can make you righteous. You're corrupt and need to be saved. “Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.” (Romans 5:9) Only by trusting in Jesus Christ, in what HE did for you, your soul will be cleansed from sin and separated from your body, making you dead to sin. Jesus Christ can purchase you with His blood right now. You're just receiving a gift, salvation is not a reward. God has given you time to repent your sinfulness and self-righteousness. What do you choose? God respects your choice and punishes evil because He is good and righteous, and gave you this choice because He is merciful. So please don't choose wrath. This is serious. Your soul is eternal.

“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” (Romans 3:23)

"Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified." (Galatians 2:16)

“For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:” (1 Corinthians 15:3-4)

Jesus Christ is God who came to earth from heaven in the flesh. He died as a sinless sacrifice for the sins of the whole world to save you from eternal hell, the consequence of sin. He was buried, then resurrected and is now in heaven, the word of God gave you the faith you need to accept this gift "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." (Romans 10:17), so just trust in what Jesus did to save you, the blood atonement of Jesus Christ is sufficient to cleanse you from all sin eternally. "And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand." (John 10:28 “Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.” (Rom 5:9) It's 100% God saving you, and it's not your own effort at all, but you have a choice. Don't put faith in your own works for salvation, (not sinning, going to church, praying, loving God etc. Your works can't make you sinless, only by trusting in what Jesus did, you become His purchased possession forever, no matter who you are or what kind of sin you're involved in.) you're just receiving a free gift. That's how powerful the blood of Jesus Christ is. God has given you time to repent. What do you choose?

Rom. 10:9 "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved."

“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9)

“Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.” (Rom 5:9)

“And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.” (Ephesians 4:30)

I live in the UK and as a result of political dissent I was imprisoned (with no charge or trial) and subsequently put on licence which forbade me from going into a church or getting baptised. I'm likely going back to prison in the next week even though I've committed no crime. This is just a quick post to alert the world to what is happening to Christians in the UK.

The Online Safety Act risks free speech, privacy, and innovation with vague rules and burdens on small platforms. Repeal it for targeted laws that protect kids, respect privacy, and foster tech growth.

The Online Safety Act 2023, receiving Royal Assent on October 26, 2023, aims to protect children and adults online by imposing duties on social media companies and search services to manage illegal and harmful content. It is enforced by Ofcom, with phased implementation, including child safety duties effective from July 25, 2025. However, the act has faced significant criticism for its potential to undermine free speech, privacy, and innovation, leading to calls for its prohibition or repeal.

How do Orthodox defend against Catholic charges that in order for there to be unity in faith there needs to be a central figurehead, like the Pope, to keep the Church united. Everytime I tried making a post or a thread, because I was genuinly curious as to what the Orthodox have to say (since I am considering conversion to Orthodoxy from Southern Baptist), all the Catholics would flood in and shit everything up and call the Orthodox phyletists and schismatics and that apparently something like the situation between Constantinople and Moscow over Ukraine is proof that there needs to be a Pope. So Orthodox, what is your defense against the RCs?

The Punishment Of My Doomed Prophets Of Selfishness And Greed

“My son, My Hand is against them, false prophets who demand money from My people. I will punish them forever, says the LORD. Ministry should be free, so why are they charging vast sums so that they could be ministered unto? I will punish forever, even now My prophets of greed and selfishness; they shall be no more haunting the land with their false prophecies foisted on the people for money. My Hand is against them, and they shall be punished in My fiery Hell, the place for all false prophets, for they will not obey Me nor do My will in freely giving after they have freely received from Me. Who do they think they are to demand money for ministry of false prophecy, My son? They shall be gathered up en-masse and cast alive into My fiery burning Furnace of Fire, My son! Such is the fate of all who rebel against Me in performing their own will in ministry, My son. Your LORD has spoken.”

The Prophetic Judgment Of My Greedy Ministers

“A Living God I Am, My son. A lot of My people don’t follow Me right. They refuse to give away all, My son, and follow Me like you have. In fact, they want more for self in this greedy culture. Greedy dogs are everywhere in ministry, false prophets who can never have enough. They have misused the Prosperity Gospel for their own advantage, stockpiling vast stockpiles of wealth. My son, that should not be so. They should distribute unto the people, but instead hoard vast sums for self. Woe unto the greedy dogs, My son, false ministers who forever want more. It should have been better that they had never been born! Woe unto them, the miseries headed their way, their wealth shall eat their flesh as by fire! Such is the end of all greedy men who hoard wealth for the end times, My son! You have none– rejoice in your pennilessness! Your LORD has spoken. Amen and amen forever!”
