Problems
International law and agreements are being violated. Agreements are being reached that limit the sovereignty of the universally recognized independent states. Not everyone has fundamental human rights. If you express an opinion against the current regime, you may end up in trouble, be killed or go to jail, you will not be able to run for parliament. The election is counterfeit. The voice of opposition and true truth are not allowed to be heard. Propaganda, distortion, exaggeration, belittling, and false reliance on emotion and history. False proof of self and other ones. False and unreasonable judgments. Legislation is not ethical and in accordance with God’s will. Corruption. The mob. Crime. Selfishness. Pursuing self-interest and greatness at the expense of other citizens and nations. Considering oneself superior to others, and not seeing one’s own mistakes and weaknesses.
Democracy does not work and is not genuine. There is only one-party dictatorship or two parties in which the people are divided or there is not a well-functioning multi-party system. Not all adult citizens have the right to vote or stand as a candidate. Women are in a subordinate position compared to men. Power and wealth are concentrated in the hands of a few. The opposition cannot operate completely freely and cannot come up with good ideas and alternatives. The madness of greatness, the desire to be a great power and to subjugate smaller nations. Even the brethren nations are at war with one another, and the stronger will subdue the weaker, causing discord and bitterness between nations and peoples. They sow bitterness and discord with wrong influence and action, by the divide and rule principle. The pursuit of power and false honor, paranoia, suspicion, bitterness, anger. The big and the strong oppress the small and the weak. Majorities oppress minorities. Disinformation, lying and distortion poison people and peoples, cause discord and anger. The words of people, leaders, cannot be trusted. The people are not enlightened and mature in democracy, not active in social and world affairs, abstaining. Subject to fear and intimidation, to dictators and authoritarian regimes.
Use of violence, army and security machinery. The military junta, an authoritarian regime, rules in its own bubble, ignoring the interests and rights of the entire nation. The military and the security machinery support unjust rule and violence, wars. They are attacking other states and citizens on the wrong grounds and causing a great deal of destruction and suffering, with hardened in consciences and heartless, ruthless. No history has been learned of where Hitler’s madness of greatness, anger, and its support took the people and ruined the infrastructure and many people were killed and wounded. Rely on weapons, high-tech war machines, armies. It is imagined that sustainable power can be maintained through the machinery of war and security, but the ordinary people do not want it. Wars wreak havoc on infrastructure, suffering on nature and people. The military industry increases environmental problems, takes resources away from areas that benefit citizens and the environment.
Solutions
History already teaches how to Hitler and the German people happened when people did not oust such a leader and administration from the very beginning. One should not think of world domination and the pursuit of superpower status, a small and righteous country and state is often happier than under coercion maintained by the military, the security machinery, propaganda, fear and even corruption.
Every language and nationality should have at least self-government if it is a large enough group regionally for it. Peoples, races and languages must get along with each other, without subjugating and oppressing anyone, as equals.
The people, the military and the security machinery should displace selfish, insane, harmful, authoritarian and dishonest rulers together resolutely. Since power will easily go to head, the constitution should not give too much power to the president or ministers, and limit the length of periods to, for example, two periods at most. The opposition and a wide variety of individuals need to be allowed to operate freely, to develop and practice good in the administration and to compete with the current administration, then there are several good candidates in the election and can afford not to develop an authoritarian regime. Zero tolerance for all forms of injustice, violations of international law and human rights.
Violent communism has not proved advanced in history and does not even respect freedom, brotherhood and equality among all citizens and nations. Good democracy, ethics, a mixed economy with both a market economy and a public economy have best advanced the nation’s social, ecological and economic sustainable development and security and the happiness of its citizens. A society where good spiritual and ethical values are popular, bringing endurance, faith, and hope for both temporal and eternal happiness.
Become wise citizens and rulers! Get the right reliable information, study and learn from experience. Don’t learn through the heel old mistakes that have been made in history. Develop, innovate. Do not covet the property of others, lands and peoples and states to yourself and your power. Do not subjugate others. It is not honorable that the status of a great power is gained and propped up by violent machinery and perverse influence, but all citizens together are building an ideal society in which everyone is really good and happy to be. Focus on developing your own country, your area of residence that you have already gained, do not become too entangled and influence the interests of others on the basis of sphere of influence. Universal ethics and morals have to and are good to cherish. If others do wrong, don’t do wrong, it doesn’t entitle us to do wrong. Do and let us repent and daily repentance, acknowledging mistakes and apologizing and forgiving and repairing and compensating for the damage done to others and ourselves! Everyone has dignity, let us not imagine and believe that only one is superior to others. Everyone has their own strengths, weaknesses, and evil inclinations, ambitions, etc., which must be controlled by the power of the Good Spirit without causing harm to ourselves, others, and entire nations.
What violence and war will ultimately win. Man’s life is short, everything must be given up, a great temporal kingdom, power, wealth and glory. Whether the end place is eternal heaven or hell, only it really has value and significance.
Fable or true about Russia
The low self-esteem of Russia and Putin may make them bulge with guns and the army to play a tough guy. Many ordinary people in Russia have a bad building stock, however some cities have indeed been renovated, they spend a lot on armaments and the ordinary people are quite poor. Russia’s great power is maintained with the help of the army, weapons, security apparatus and some objects that look modern and advanced, if you really simplify. There is no praise, Russia and Putin are living the 1930s spiritually, when Hitler and Stalin adored war, state greatness. The smart world of today and a man who no longer wants war and violence and wants genuine democracy, justice, is far from Putin’s ideals. Russia has been about 90 years behind the West. The army and security machinery humbly obey Putin, who pays them a good salary. At least that is the impression. The aggressive actions, dishonesty, distortions and violations of international law by Putin and his regime do not bring credit to Russia and Putin himself.
Russia has for many decades subjugated several other nations and, after independence, still strives to keep them in a grip that non-Russians do not like. The Russians have moved in the past and now remain in several former Soviet republics and are there in the minority. They should be content with that and not remain as superior lord or if they do not get along with the indigenous people they would move back to Russia, which is a large country. There would be room to build new residences there, although it will be expensive to build extensive transport networks. The security machinery, the military, and warfare take a lot of money that could go into building new homes, investing in new jobs, and producing facilities. The staff of the big security machinery could move to other professions when in a true democracy it would not be needed so much. Many European countries and Japan and others are small to their large population. Russia, on the other hand, is large for the current about 145 million people. Yes, there would even be too much room for Russians to live without coveting other parts of the world. The Asian side is like a Russian colony. Western countries have given up nearly all of their colonies, which have become independent. It is not a big loss for Russia the independence of several former Soviet republics. Ethnic regions in Russia could become even more independent so that their language and culture are better preserved and not over-Russianized. If Russia is an authoritarian superpower in which the opposition and civil society have no place, hardly any citizen wants to be in it, under it.
Now Russia on February 24, 2022 began to kill the Ukrainians in the war, their brothers and also the Russian soldiers are likely to lose their lives. Russia will not be able to hold compulsory violence power indefinitely when the people do not want it and the rest of the world opposes it.
What if the Russian and Ukrainian soldiers agree among themselves that they will not go to war even if Putin incites it. Leave your equipment in Ukraine and stay there to live, and you will get to a real democracy away from the evil tyranny of Putin and his regime.
The Golden Rule: Whatever you want to do for yourself, do it for others. What you don’t want to do for yourself don’t do it for others. If Russia does not want to disarm itself, do not demand it of Ukraine or others. If Russia does not want to be attacked, do not also attack Ukraine or other countries. Russia will be very selfish if it does not follow the golden rule. If you do not want to be controlled by another state, you should not demand it from others. Putin, if you don’t want to be killed, don’t kill others. If you want to say and express your opinion, let others say and express their opinion. If you do not want to be controlled with fear, do not control with fear others, Putin, Lavrov and partners. Putin, Lavrov and partners, if you do not want your cities and military infrastructure to be destroyed, do not destroy others.
The Russian regime is like a criminal who, with a gun, blackmails another party, such as Ukraine. This is terrible in modern times and a great disgrace to Russia. The Russian people and army, oust such an regime, release political prisoners, hold free elections in which the opposition has equal opportunities to participate. Withdraw all your armies from other countries and allow them without pressure decide on their own affairs.
RUSSIAN ARMY AND SECURITY PERSONS, DO NOT OBEY PUTIN, BUT BE MERCIFUL AND HUMAN TOWARDS OTHER PEOPLE. GOD MUST BE OBEYED MORE THAN PEOPLE! Putin and Lavrov, God can allow you serious illness and death. Then you will have to give up power and Russia’s superpower dreams. Your days are numbered too. With unforgivable sins, also you will go to the eternal torment of hell.
RUSSIA SHOULD WITHDRAW ALL ITS WAR TROOPS FROM UKRAINE, RETURN THE CRIME AND EASTERN UKRAINE TO UKRAINE AND SO CORRECT THE CRIMES AGAINST INTERNATIONAL JUSTICE. UKRAINE MUST HAVE RECONCILIATION AND EQUALITY BETWEEN ALL CITIZENSHIPS AND LANGUAGES AND SHOULD NOT WAR WITH EACH OTHER. OTHERWISE THERE WILL BE NO AGREEMENT AND A FINAL SOLUTION AND THE CONFLICT MAY CONTINUE UNTIL THE END OF THE WORLD.
End-time people, Bible King James, 2. Timoteus 3
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men , as theirs also was.
10 But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,
11 Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.
12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
14 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them ;
15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
The Bible talks a lot about lying and disinformation and the punishment for liars. You can search them for verses from the online Bible with keywords e.g. a lie, a liar, etc. Even the Russian government relies heavily on disinformation and violence and will not go unpunished by God. It is useless for Putin and his supporters to imagine that they are avoiding God’s harsh punishment, already here in time and then in eternity if they no longer receive a revival of conscience and the grace of repentance from God, because they consciously go from evil to evil. Are not Putin and her troops and supporters afraid of God and the eternal torment of hell.
Part of the older Russian population perhaps lags behind about 90 years of intellectual development, because they vote Putin. In the 1930s and earlier centuries of authoritarian rule, the army, good armaments, and the expansion of the country by war, superpower status, fear, coercion, and military rule were valued. North Korea, China, and many, many other countries are also lagging behind in spiritual development. If there were no such backward, old-fashioned, power-hungry, paranoid, states of fear, coercion and torture of the people, there would be no need for armies and weapons. Genuine democracy without disinformation and an enlightened people will continue to be a guarantee for good societies and peace, cooperation and good, sustainable development between peoples. In China in recent years, the demonstration of democracy by young people was violently suppressed and left behind China for good social development and freedom and happiness for the people. Although externally modern and prosperous, it is not good and happy for citizens to live without full human rights and under fear of state coercion and without a proper Christian-moral foundation.
The UN should have jurisdiction, without a veto by any country, to order the Russian regime and army to be removed from Ukrainian territory, including Crimea, to pay billions of dollars in damage to Ukraine’s infrastructure, imprisonment for human killings, compensation for the suffering and distress of Ukrainians and refugees, Russian barbarian state disarmament from all weapons, even nuclear weapons. And the imprisonment of the Russian administration and money launderers, the transfer of wrongly gained property for the benefit of the citizens. The UN should have armed forces to help implement them and to act as peacekeepers.
If Russia annexes Crimea, then Finland (Karelia’s isthmus and other arm) and other countries could annex the territories they have lost. If Russia holds referendums on independence in the territories of other states, then other countries could also hold referendums in the ethnic regions of Russia for their independence. Yes, everyone must abide by international law on an equal footing, and the right of the stronger does not violate it. Putin should be sued and dismissed for violating international law to Russia’s great disgrace. The people of Russia, do it. It’s crazy to be against nearly 8 billion other worlds and still against God’s will.
Russia’s current regime is killing Russian-speaking civilians in Ukraine and their own country and its brother Ukrainians, how cruel! Surely it will collapse the support of the Putin regime, or is the Russian people so brainwashed and blackmailed that it still supports Putin.
The United States and England helped China, Russia and Europe in World War II against the expansion efforts of Germany, Japan and Italy. Aren’t China and Russia grateful for that? Do you want to prevent NATO and the EU from acting as current world police when the UN is unable to do so, as Russia and China often use their vetoes at the UN to block progress against Countries enlargement efforts? China and Russia, move from the old petrification to a genuine democracy in which all citizens have equal rights to stand as a candidate and vote. China and Russia have already lost their faces among the enlightened youth of the world. From China came Covid-19 and Russia causes wars, deaths and destruction.
Saving the world and Russia too
There is still a small early church group of Saints on earth with the Holy Spirit and thus the living powerful word of God without factions and divisions. There is no Holy Spirit in Catholicism, Orthodoxy, charismatic, Protestant movements except in the one true church of God, the disciples of Jesus today. However, the Holy Ghost can awake feeling sins anywhere, anytime, and to anyone. But sins are forgiven only by receiving and believing the gospel of the forgiveness of the proclamation of the church of God, and it results in the repentance of life, the renunciation of sins and the struggle to avoid all sins. Then the fruit of faith will come that a thief, as Zacchaeus, will be recompensed many times over if he has taken something wrong. Agree with the brethren of the strife, confess lies and half-truths, etc. Even the slightest sin is not permissible, the great sin leads to hell, and the small sin too, without repentance and forgiveness of sins and living by grace and faith.
Russia has a country habit that one can lie, can steal, can commit violence, purpose and human position sanctify means and deeds. But they are against the will of God, they violate both God and one’s neighbor, and they bring to the Russian both temporal and eternal calamity, as has been for hundreds of years and is very clear these days when Ukraine has been invaded. This old Russian model as a whole is immoral and doomed. It is feared that the West will attack and be attacked from elsewhere, a great power in which the Russians are leaders, orthodoxy – false doctrine, the infallibility of the ruler – no man is infallible, power is allowed by God, but it can be evil, in which case God must obey more than evil. The Russians should go even to the basic morals that the natives and ordinary citizens already have, and then to the law of international law, the law of the Ten Commandments and the Bible, which no one can fully fulfill. Somehow the best and brightest ethic would be to receive repentance by the grace of the right living faith, in which case the Holy Spirit would bring the spiritually dead to life and clearly guide what is right and what is wrong.
The world will evolve if we petrify the old and the historical we are still at the level of the Stone Age. Society is also evolving and the current genuine democracy, civil society, harmony and equality between peoples, real freedom, good human rights, etc. would be better for Russia than the centuries-old model. The behavior and structure of the old Russian model constantly causes crises and uncertainty in society and collides with the rest of the world. It would be high time for Russia to properly transform into a nation and state with good morals, otherwise Russia will perish and destroy other nations as well. Righteousness exalts the people, but sin is a disgrace to the nation.
