Great essay Jim. I can't help but think the purpose of crypto currencies was to soften us up to the use of digital money.

The big crypto evil gets here when the Fed installs the Central Bank Digital Currency that it is creating.

It's all about control... wannabe "little gods" who want to rule the world.

From the story:

“Regalado and his wife Kaitlyn told followers that God would make them rich if …”

This is the moment that the sheep should have scattered.

But they don't... how sad to trust money over Christ.

I am sure that I will never understand crypto currency. At first I thought it was used to buy psychedelics on the Torrent website. Then I thought that maybe it is a forerunner to a universal currency that would make international business transactions easier and maybe safer. On the other hand (yes, I have three hands), it seems possible that a consortium of nations could simply make the use of crypto illegal and billions of dollars spent impulsively would disappear.

Kamela will fix it. LOL

The Crypto Czar will have supernatural powers endowed upon her at the next coven meeting.

Hopefully the coven will quickly tire of her.

Since she is the High Priestess, it will take a coup. But those are easy to accomplish these days.

Sad to hear this especially when Christianity is already under attack, and especially right now the UK stands out to me. I am hearing woman being questioned for praying outside abortion facility and nowhere near the entrance and she was going to be arrested. Meanwhile in the city Muslim protestors carrying signs down with the UK Government and Sharia Law would become the law of that land is tolerated. One man makes Facebook post against this invasion and is being arrested for it. I am surprised Joel Osteen didn't come up with a crypto scheme but he already has more money than he could ever need and living his best life now.

Thanks Dean, yes, indeed it is a sad commentary on the state of many churches today.

Of Proverbs 6:16-19's seven things that the Lord hates, devising a wicked [crypto] plan and then lying and sowing discord among brothers, all but covers three of the seven. Way to go false prophets, what a reunion that will be on judgment day.
