Re: Combating evil Forces
Message 02597 of 3835
Morning, Jason;
In Frabato the Magician the dark lodge goes about defeating their
supposed enemies by causing an immediate heart attack by directing
the death ray towards them, it works on everyone except on Frabato.
The evil forces whom the dark lodge grand master submit to warn him
that they may not be able to affect Frabato but the grand master goes
ahead with the command anyway. Frabato notices he has a headache and
balances himself and the attack averts him. Later the grand master is
taken out of existence.
That is the sequence I was referring to. Your responses I would agree
with. If my statements aluded otherwise then I was in haste with
quick answers. Our only work should be in maintaining a balance in
ourselves and going about our duties as prescribed by divine
providence at every moment while enjoying life, is my outlook. Divine
Providence may do whatever He may choose, anytime, all of the time.
I wish you well,
Chuck
