You and Earburner should talk about locust vaccines! How did the vaccines torment people for 5 months, those who got the vaccine actually tormented those of us that did not clfh

Alright, Im convinced, I was tormented by them so which side of this thing am I on?
As a "born again" Christian, whether you took the shot or not, this always applies:
Luke 10
[19] Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

There are many here, that do not know that we are as Ambassadors FOR Christ, in this present Age of God's Grace. We ARE NOW both kings and priests.
Rev. 1
[4] John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne;
[5] And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
[6] And hath [now] made us kings and priests UNTO God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
[7] Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
Sing all Praise to our KING Brother

You emphasize the hath NOW made us kings and so why did Paul feel left out of reigning as kings with them now here?

1 Cr 4:8 Now ye are full, now ye are rich, ye have reigned as kings without us: and I would to God ye did reign, that we also might reign with you.

As far a reigning, he says,

2 Ti 2:12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us

No doubt we are not to let sin reign in our mortal bodies but what of Paul who says,

I would to God ye did reign, that we also might reign with you.

Know what I mean locust bean

Our reign with God is not ever to be over men, but rather to be in service towards them unto salvation, in this present Age of God's Grace.
Through Jesus, we are now reigning as kings and priests UNTO God as it were in His stead, holding forth the Gift of His Salvation to others.

2 Cor.
[20] Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.

How does this verse contradict or supplement these

1 Cr 4:8 Now ye are full, now ye are rich, ye have reigned as kings without us: and I would to God ye did reign, that we also might reign with you.

Again,

I would to God ye did reign, that we also might reign with you.

The torment is WHEN....
Rev. 9
[5] And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he STRIKETH a man.

The unsaved do reign in life upto the end of their life as kings, without Christians. However, Paul was in hope of their conversion to God, so that he could reign with them in Christ for Eternity.

Suffering is not necessarily physical pain. It can be living a meager life in this flesh, whereby we choose in Christ to forego many of the comforts for this flesh, hazarding our life for the sake of Christ and the gospel message through persecution, even death.

Yes, in that regard, I was tormented by others for not taking the shot. Even the lay leader in my church verbally quoted a scripture to me: "Thou shall not tempt the Lord thy God".
It was at that moment that I knew by God's will, that I would be leaving that visible denomination. The heaviness of those words spoken to me, was a literal temptation of Satan through him.
It was time to go, and leave them in their own "form of godliness", knowing that they were denying the anointing of God's Holy Spirit within me.

Some posts by some of you about the locusts are really... ridiculous.
Sometimes its just good to highlight the ridiculous. Like who would be tormented by a jab? Why would the jab strike you like a scorpion for 5 months?

And if it was the jab why is it that alot of the crazies that took it actually tormented the rest of us that did not for almost two years?

Hummmm ?
(as you would say)

They were WORSE than these evil locusts!

Whatever. War, sorcery and medical "witchcraft" is what this world is all about, through "the prince of this world".

Pfizer and Moderna, with all of their pharmaceuticals, should take a trip to Ukraine, Gaza, Lebanon and Syria. But then again, that would be to no avail, because Rev. 9:13-21 is at the door.
With 22 dams on the Euphrates River, it will be dried up by or before 2040.
