BME: Body Modification Ezine

A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

    Contrary to that picture, I did actually smile and laugh during that suspension.

    …….and when all is said and done, even the prince of the power of the air is not interested in your petty attempt at
    darkness
    and at the end of your vaporous life you will stand with
    lucifer son of the morning only to reap what you have sown …. to the sides of the pit you go.(isaiah 14)

    he takes advantage of our finite minds by tricking us into thinking that good is bad and bad is good so that we will suffer the same fate as him all the wile he has no personal interest in us as people.

    he is just interested in getting back at the
    LORD OF THE ARMIES OF ISRAEL.

    HOW WEAK
    AND SMALL
    HE IS
    SMALL LITTLE DEVIL
    SUFFERING LIKE THAT
    IN AN ENDLESS BLACK ETERNITY
    CALLED SHEOL

    YOU ….NOTHING TO GAIN AND EVERYTHING TO LOSE
    FOLLOWING HIM
    POINTLESS
    WILL HATE SATAN FOR EVER AS YOU WILL
    HAVE ONLY YOURSELF TO BLAME FOR LETTING YOURSELF
    BE DOOPED.

    ON A LIGHTER NOTE……….
    G-D IS GOOD AND HIS MERCY ENDURES FOR EVER.
