Wolves In Sheep's Clothing - Live and die an ignobly life without shame, honour or dignity
“Among the signs of a hypocrite are three, even if he fasts and prays and claims to be religious: when he speaks he lies, when he gives a promise he breaks it, and when he is trusted he betrays.”
Why and what we must (but always fail to) learn from medieval people's bitterness and failed civilizations (before it's too late)?
Lesson No.1: Wolves In Sheeps Clothing
Beware of false holy men, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as angels. And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. So it is no surprise if his servants, also, disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. Their end will correspond to their deeds.
For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves gurus, teachers and preachers to suit their own passions
You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit (increasing poverty, weakening of ringgit, etc)
A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
Medieval wisdom: What ancient texts have warned us we about Wolves In Sheep's Clothing?
Malaysians, please watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our country, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive.
No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.
Many bad leaders will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.
Poor motherland, her princes in her midst are like wolves tearing the prey, shedding blood, destroying lives to get dishonest gain. Poverty and misery persist.
EVERY SO OFTEN, THERE ARE MOMENTS THAT DEFINE A GENERATION. AT THE VERY BEGINNING OF THIS YOUNG PH GOMEN, WE FACE OUR OWN DEFINING MOMENT. OUR NATION IS IN THE MIDDLE OF TWO SERIOUS EXTERNAL THREATS - GLOBAL RECESSION AND COVID-19 PANDEMIC. BUSINESS FAILED. MANY MIDDLE CLASS PPL LOST THEIR JOBS. POOR PEOPLE CONTINUE TO SUFFER.
BUT WE STILL MUST BE GRATEFUL. IN THIS MOMENT OF GREAT CHALLENGE EXISTS AN EVEN GREATER OPPORTUNITY. FOR IN MANY OF MY FORUMS NATIONWIDE, I HAVE FOUND THAT THE DISILLUSIONMENT WITH PH IS NOT LOMITED TO ANY ONE PARTY OR GROUP OF PEOPLE. IT IS SHARED BY INDEPENDENTS, AMANAH, PKR, DAP AND EVEN THE OPPOSITION PARTIES FROM ALL WALLS OF LIFE WHO ARE TIRED OF BEING DISAPPOINTED BY THE PETTY POLITICS THAT STOP US FROM FACING AND SOLVING CHALLENGES LIKE RESPONSIBLE EDUCATION, AFFORDABLE HEALTH PROVISION AND RAMPANT CORRUPTION NATIONWIDE YEAR AFTER YEAR.
THESE MALAYSIANS AND MILLIONS MORE UNDERSTAND THAT AT THIS DEFINING MOMENT IN HISTORY, WE JUST CANNOT AFFORD TO KEEP DOING WHAT WE'VE BEEN DOING. THEY ARE READY TO COME TOGETHER, PUSH ASIDE THEIR DIFFERENCES AND CHOOSE A NEW AND BETTER FUTURE FOR MALAYSIA.
THIS CROSSROAD OFFERS THAT CHOICE. I HAVE A VISION FOR MALAYSIA ROOTED IN THE VALUES THAT HAVE ALWAYS MADE SARAWAK THE LAST HOPE OF MALAYSIA - VALUES THAT HAVE BEEN EXPRESSED TO ME ON FRONT PORCHES AND FAMILY FARMS; IN TOWN HALL MEETINGS AND INSIDE BUSINESS OFFICES. THEY BELIEVE IN PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY, HARD WORK, AND SELF-RELIANCE. THEY DON'T LIKE SEEING THEIR TAX RINGGIT WASTED.
fcuk principles , politics first is here to stay.........
Rule of law is out...........
I really pity DAP, and my favorite girl the Minster of Environment talking rule of law principles at the height of the crisis a few days ago and making the most stupid decision in DAP political life by nominating Anwar ( instead of Mahathir) for audience with the King..........
No man is an island. You need a team to be successful. Bersatu too many ex- UMNO man. The flying car man is now number 1 PLP and ready his knife for Tun M
no no no...........my respect for Mahathir is not diminished...........in fact Mahathir Malaysia Bolih spirit even exceeded my expectations..........Remember, 2-3 nights ago, even Sarawak Report though Mahathir have given up and go cycling.........I also though Mahathir has given up the fight for Rule of Law but he resurfaced the next day, a invigorated man ready to to fight Muhidin...............
DAP as usual not sincere nominating mahathir... nominating anwar, then thinkin anwar no support on malay then switch to mahathir back and luring the old man...that move ermm really a bad thing...nevermind now begone........insulting mahathir lickin back insult back lickin back...
Haha qqq3, We still have Sarawakian EngineeringProfit return of Jedi so don't give up hope. Morover this new coalition wouldn't last long with PLP and OKTs how to run an economy. Bursa/Malaysians will suffer more till end of this so called new coalition.
I agree with KYY approach to the stock market........In fact, I am trying to be like him, sailang and all in ..........he even full margin and 200%.............me? I still far far away from 200%....in the case of scib, and Kpower I only go 100% even at the peak of my holdings..........
Bring back Rafazi, let Zaid Ibrahim makeover DAP make friends rather then enemies then PH still can make a comeback. Bersatu, Pas and UMNO will fight each others to be Boss ku and screw up the economy badly.
Haha KYY still can come back after his huge losses in JAK. And for you one mistake will make you bankrupt. And why try to be like KYY counting what he has in sharemarket and unable to enjoy it?
I think its game over.....best is go cycling , no eye see.........
don't see, don't get tempted to buy....as for my remaining SCIB and Kpower....I have not yet decided.....I have reduce to level I want to reduce to............
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
