Dark Elf | Out of the Shadows

As the
tablet's glow grew to life, an image appeared. On the image of a full moon, two
torches crossed paths at the top, over the scales of justice below. The torches
were made of gold, but held black and white flames. Upon the gold scales sat
two weights named Adrasteia and Hekate .

Dark Elf entered his
password, and the screens around the room booted to life. As he checked his
monitors he was able to observe 1000's of cameras from around the world, but
front and center were his prime monitors. From here he could see his entire
operation.

Anonymous served
it's purpose, now it was time to come out of the shadows. It was amazing how
much could be accomplished through some keystrokes and well placed religious
bull. Dark Elf roamed the dark net, smirking periodically at Hacker Aliases
like "HellRazzer567". Really? That's the best you could come up with.
Children. It was time to establish his own ID. Something to set him apart from
his Anonymous friends. Dark Elf would do nicely. It was simple enough to
remember, innocuous enough to be tracked to 100's of other individuals.

So far the
instructions of his masters had paid dividends many times over. He was rich,
powerful, and operated from the shadows. Just levitate a few chairs and the
powerless will flock to you as though you had all the answers.

The Islamist
Extremists were so easy to manipulate too. It was astonishing how easy it was
to get some bearded scarf wearer to bomb a building by hacking their website
and posting the challenge. These people were not any smarter than these looser
addicts that were constantly doing his bidding at his hotel.

The great Dr. Briar
was becoming a nuisance, but he was assured that he still served a purpose. He
had a few ideas about what to do when that purpose was complete. Hiring a man
to play the part of wealthy contributor? 100,000 dollars. The look on his face
when he got the texts? Priceless.

What a moron.

Meanwhile, it was
nice to be king. Lord rather. Lord Dark Elf. It had a nice ring to it, eh?

Hecate: goddess of magic and ghosts.



https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hecate

Hecate or Hekate (/ˈhɛkətiː, ˈhɛkɪt/; Greek Ἑκάτη, Hekátē) is a goddess in Greek religion and mythology, most often shown holding two torches or a key^[1] and in later periods depicted in triple form. She was variously associated with crossroads, entrance-ways, dogs, light, the moon, magic, witchcraft, knowledge of herbs and poisonous plants, ghosts, necromancy, and sorcery.^[2][3] In the post-Christian writings of the Chaldean Oracles (2nd-3rd century CE) she was regarded with (some) rulership over earth, sea and sky, as well as a more universal role as Saviour (Soteira), Mother of Angels and the Cosmic World Soul.^[4][5] She was one of the main deities worshiped in Athenian households as a protective goddess and one who bestowed prosperity and daily blessings on the family.^[6]

Hecate may have originated among the Carians of Anatolia, where variants of her name are found as names given to children. William Berg observes, "Since children are not called after spooks, it is safe to assume that Carian theophoric names involving hekat-refer to a major deity free from the dark and unsavoury ties to the underworld and to witchcraft associated with the Hecate of classical Athens."^[7] She also closely parallels the Roman goddess Trivia, with whom she was identified in Rome.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trivia_(mythology)

Trivia in Roman mythology was the goddess who "haunted crossroads, graveyards, and was the goddess of sorcery and witchcraft, she wandered about at night and was seen only by the barking of dogs who told of her approach."^[1] She was the equivalent of the Greek goddess Hecate, the goddess of witchcraft, the three-way crossroads and the harvest moon.^[2] She was an underworld Titan-goddess who assisted Jove in the Titanomachy and was therefore able to keep her powers. She was a friend of Ceres and helped her to find her daughter Proserpina. As a part of her role as an underworld goddess, she was known as the Queen of Ghosts. Although she helped Ceres to find her daughter, she was also known to steal young maidens to assist her in her powers. These women later became nymphs.

Her association for Romans of the first century BCE with Artemis was so thorough that Lucretius^[3] identifies the altar of the goddess at the sacrifice of Iphianassa (Iphigeneia) in Aulis as Triviai virginis aram.

Nemesis, judge jury and executioner



In ancient Greek religion, Nemesis (/ˈnɛməsɪs/; Greek: Νέμεσις), also called Rhamnousia/Rhamnusia ("the goddess of Rhamnous") at her sanctuary at Rhamnous, north of Marathon, was the spirit of divine retribution against those who succumb to hubris (arrogance before the gods). Another name was Adrasteia, meaning "the inescapable."^[1]

Etymology[edit]

The name Nemesis is related to the Greek word νέμειν némein, meaning "to give what is due",^[2] from Proto-Indo-European nem- "distribute".^[3]

Background[edit]

Divine retribution is a major theme in the Hellenic world view, providing the unifying theme of the tragedies of Sophocles and many other literary works.^[4][5] Hesiod states: "Also deadly Nyx bore Nemesis an affliction to mortals subject to death." (Theogony, 223, though perhaps an interpolated line). Nemesis appears in a still more concrete form in a fragment of the epic Cypria.

Zues (Greek) -  Jupiter (Roman), also known as Jove.



He was the god of the gods, father of them Satan would have chosen this for himself.



Note the similarities between the propagation of the gods in Greek mythology, and the propagation of angels in Gen 5-6.

"Oh My God!" And Other Vain Things...

Exodus 20:7

“You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain." English Standard Version 

"You must not misuse the name of the LORD your God. The LORD will not let you go unpunished if you misuse his name." New Living Translation

vain VAIN, a. [L. vanus; Eng. wan, wane, want.]  (Empty, Worthless, Having No Subtance, Fruitless, Ineffectual, having no effect, False).

The common American English Phrase "Oh My God!" is often used when surprised or as an exclamation in speech. Why would this be an inappropriate way to use the name of God?

It's an inappropriate way to use any name. "Oh my Darrell! Look at this mess kids, clean it up!"

A name should be used when speaking to, or referring to, an individual. "Darrell, would you pass the mustard please?" "Oh, I know Darrell. He lives in Texas."

Along these same lines, we would also want to be cautious how we refer to Darrell. Even if we are using the name appropriately, to refer to him; we would want to refer to him accurately.

"Darrell is always struggling to keep up, and he never really gets any work done on time." This is an inaccurate way to describe Darrell at work.

Likewise, when referring attributes to God, we would want to use the same thought. "This was an act of God!" is not accurate to use in the face of devastation. God did not "allow" or "permit" a storm to kill 100 people. It was not His judgment or will. He was not trying to teach anyone a lesson.

John 10:10
English Standard Version The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.

James 1:17
English Standard Version Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.

All the sin in the world has already been judged, one and for all, on the Cross of Calvary, in His son Jesus. There is NO human on earth that will go to hell because they lied, stole, or murdered. There is no sin being actively judged by God today.

However, we have an enemy. Until this earth is completely done away with, after the rapture, after the 7 year tribulation, after the 1,000 year reign of Christ... the enemy is here and he is evil, and he attacks. ALL evil, stealing, killing, destroying come from him.

There is also the fact that this earth is groaning for the son's of God to be revealed. And the earth itself is tearing apart in these last days.

There is a Godly judgment coming, but it's not for us. It's for Israel and the inhabitants left after the rapture. It is for any left that have rejected the Son of God.

So let's never again blame God for sin, sickness, or destruction. And let's use his name accurately when we use it.

Those are my thoughts today.

A Key With No Software to Unlock is Frustrating...

So... I'm on vacation. I don't know how to do "vacation" so I'm playing with a laptop trying to get it working the way I want it to. I have the Windows Installation Key that is on the case. It does not have the correct version of windows installed, there is no disc, and there is no partition. So, one would think, that I could download the version I need either from Windows or Toshiba.

Nope.

I use the key to download, and Windows tells me that it is a pre-installed version. DUH! That's the point! Sometimes I think Windows has their head so far up their.... boot disc... that they can't see the forest through the trees.

What good is a key if you can't use it to unlock anything?

That's what it feels like sometimes reading the whole bible, studying the principals, and then not seeing them work themselves out in my life.

Then I realize that having the hardware (spirit, soul, body), and the product key (bible - biblical principals) are only 2/3 of the equation. One also needs the software (HolySpirit) in order to run the machine. Without the proper Operating System (OS), we are always going to either be broken, or running on an OS that we were not designed for, getting inferior results.

It's not just enough to have received the HolySpirit once. Some people talk like they "got the HolySpirit in 1975". But what about this morning? Was He a real and vital part of your active prayer life this morning? Five Minutes Ago?

It's so easy to spend my time praying out of my mind, that I often forget to quiet down, listen, and let HolySpirit lead my in my own prayer time. THAT is where the product key will begin to bear the most fruit.

Silence is odd...uncomfortable... necessary.

How often are we ever really silent?

The kids left for camp this week. I didn't know how much noise was in this house until it wasn't there. My wife is asleep, the dogs don't really make much noise.

So the ticking of my desk clock is REALLY loud.

I find myself not sure what to do. I mean, I make food, get dressed go to work. All normal.

But the silence makes me feel like I ought to be doing something else.

1 Kings 19:12
After the earthquake came a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. NIV

There is a song by Point of Grace, called Jesus Is. The first line says:

"Speak a little softer. So I can hear you. Above the noise, the noise, the noise, in this world." 

It's in the silence that we can begin to hear God.

Only when we hear God, can we respond to what we've heard. Faith is a response to God saying something.

You cannot actually have Faith in the written word (bible) alone. It must be accompanied by hearing the active present voice of God speak to you. Only then, can you have Faith.

I cannot decide, because the bible promises me prosperity, that I will claim a $10 Million mansion.... unless I have heard the voice of God tell me that he has promised that mansion to me. But not even then. I must hear Him tell me where, which one, what season and time, etc. I must be given specific instructions to believe and obey. Otherwise I'm not yet in Faith. Likewise, my faith grows as I hear, believe, and obey each instruction.

There is no such thing as blind faith.

Faith beings where the will of God is known.

As I embrace the silence, can I hear from God in order to have something to believe.

If I'm not hearing anything at first, I could start by asking him some questions to answer.

• Father, what are my marching orders today?
• Father, what would you like to talk about today?
• Where could I be growing more/better today? 

Etc...
