either live it out as oppressive, manipulative, warring, murdering, enslaving, economic-benefitting,
riches thieving, politically conquering, abusive, cruel, sorcery practicing, willing- to- kill-the masses- for- political- power- and-religious-gain- Dominionists…

Witnessing Encouragement 
A rather important test!
