The absurd telephone and the wrath of Babylon before the Victory of Light against her darkness.

The absurd telephone and the wrath of Babylon before the Victory of Light against her darkness. 

Does God need a telephone?

That supposed phone…

It is a carved wooden log.

Why are you talking to it?

Its eyes cannot see you.

Its mouth will never speak to you.

It has no feelings,

But you tell it yours.

It was part of a tree.

Are you praying to what needed to be watered by the rain?

It has ears, but it doesn't listen to you.

If a pigeon soils it, it cannot clean itself.

Why do you ask it to cleanse your sins?

Isn't it rather a sin to make an idol out of a tree trunk?

Isaiah 44:16 Part of the wood he burns in the fire; with part of it he eats meat, he prepares a roast… 17 and of the remainder he makes a god, his own idol; he bows down to it, worships it, and prays to it, saying, “Deliver me, for you are my god.” … 19 He does not consider within himself, he has no sense or understanding to say, … “Shall I bow down to a block of tree?” 20… His deluded heart leads him astray, so that he cannot deliver himself or say, “Is not this thing in my right hand a lie?”

Psalm 135:15 The idols of the nations… 16 They have mouths, but they cannot speak.

Habakkuk 2:18 What good is an idol, or a cast image that teaches lies? For the one who makes mute images trusts in his own creation. 19 Woe to him who says to a piece of wood, “Awake!” or to a mute stone, “Arise!” 

If one of those nations that spoke to deaf and mute statues determined which texts go into the Bible and which do not, can all the content of the Bible be trusted?

Image on the left: The statue of Zeus in the Vatican: Do you still believe that the image on the right is the face of Jesus on the Shroud of Turin?

2 Corinthians 11:4 For if someone comes and preaches another Jesus, whom we have not preached... 'The true Jesus had short hair'!!
1 Corinthians 11:14 Does not even nature itself teach you that it is dishonorable for a man to grow his hair long?
Galatians 1:9 As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone preaches to you a 'different gospel' from what you have received, 'let him be accursed' (Faithful to the true gospel, Paul has cursed his enemies!) 'The Romans are those accursed ones!'

“They no longer worship my image, but his. Leave me alone; his image resembles mine for some strange reason. My followers can eat pork, whereas his followers... also... but even so, it is obvious that that is not my image.”

Teaching of Cleobulus of Lindos:
“Do good to your friends and enemies...”

Teaching of Jesus?
Matthew 5:44 ... do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you...

THE WORSHIP OF THE STATUE OF THE ROMAN LEGIONARY –
THE OLD ROMAN IDOLATRY RECYCLED.

Since before Christ, ancient Rome worshiped statues of various gods, among them Mars, whose sculpture you see here. Do we not see today very similar statues receiving honors?
The leaders who promote the cult of their statue today do not say that it is the god Mars, or that it is a Roman legionary... but they represent it as either one: Roman armor, Roman weapons... they only add wings... and call him Michael.

In any case, Rome did not leave behind the custom of praying to the image of a Roman soldier, represented precisely as a legionary with his military armor.

It is the same Rome that, after killing the righteous, arrogated to itself the right to decide which texts would be part of the Bible. Do you not think that this text, in Romans 13:1–2, was created by Rome to subject the peoples under its tyranny:
“Let every person be subject to the governing authorities; for there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been established by God... whoever resists authority resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur condemnation upon themselves”?

And if that authority wants to impose the worship of images, does it not deserve rebellion from those who only wish to worship God? Do we not see, in many of those images, a Roman legionary condemning unarmed civilians for not worshiping his image?
Is that not serving Rome and not the God who said about images: “You shall not bow down to them nor honor them” (Exodus 20:5)?

Why does the Bible never show Jesus speaking about this as clearly as the prophets did? Do you think he didn't speak about it, or do you think Rome censored that part of his message in its councils?

The prophets show a God who does not love His enemies:

Psalms 5:4-5 For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness... You hate all who do iniquity.

Isaiah 42:1

Behold My servant,

whom I have chosen;

Isaiah 42:13: The Lord shall go forth like a warrior...

He shall prevail against His enemies.

In the prophecy that accompanies the servant of God, there is description and condemnation of idolatry:

17 They shall be turned back and utterly ashamed, those who trust in idols, and say to molten images: You are our gods.

Matthew 12:18

Behold My servant,

whom I have chosen;

Matthew 5:44-45

Love your enemies...

so that you may be children of your Father who makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good...

(There is no description nor condemnation of idols attributed to Jesus)

Nahum 1:2 The Lord is a jealous and avenging God...

and He reserves wrath for His enemies.

If Matthew 5:17-18 is true, did Jesus deny the feelings of God, or was it Rome?

If Exodus 21:14 is the law of "eye for eye," did Jesus deny it, or did Rome, which did not respect Exodus 20:5?

If Rome did not respect the true message of Jesus, should we fully trust that it did preserve the integrity of the messages of the Law and the Prophets and the message of the witnesses of Jesus?

Athena the goddess, Mars the god, Jupiter the god: they are gods of peoples foreign to the people of Jehovah, the God of the righteous.

Where God said to the righteous, His people: “I have put enmity between the righteous and the unrighteous (Genesis 3:15, Proverbs 29:27): eye for eye against the enemy (Deuteronomy 19:16–21); never take vengeance against the righteous, the righteous is your friend; if he wronged you, it was out of ignorance or without intention,” Rome said to all: “Offer the other eye to your unjust enemy, offer the other cheek to those who hate you without cause, and never take vengeance on them (Matthew 5:38–39).”

Where God said to the righteous, His people: “You shall have no other gods before Me; do not pray to created beings; do not give honor to any sculpture, they are not necessary at all. Did I, who made the eye, not see without those statues? Did I, who made the ear, not hear without those sculptures? Those molten images are not My eyes nor My ears (Psalms 94:9, Habakkuk 2:18, Jeremiah 10:1–16),” Rome, changing the name on the plaque of the statues of its old gods, said: “Have these gods, pray to their images; direct your prayer to these intercessors because God cannot hear without them; kneel before them. Moreover, they are not gods foreign to God: look at the names we gave them, they are servants of God. They will deliver your prayer to God so that God may attend to it. Do not forget to leave the money of the sacrament; keeping these statues clean has a cost. If you want our gods to cleanse your recurring sins with us, give us the money to clean their temples and statues…”

By praying to statues, people do the same that ancient peoples did with their gods: to plead before their images. Therefore, although they claim that they only worship God and that they merely venerate the images, in practice they are worshiping those molten images as their gods; implicitly, in that way they say to them: “You are our gods,” just as was prophesied in Isaiah 42:17.

This reminds me of the funeral business, roses on graves...

She is not a white rose of goodness. They entertain you with invented stories in which the rose performs miracles while at the same time they hide from you the true story of the saints in order to deceive you.

She guides you so that you kneel before death and its image, she asks you to open your mouth to pray to her and not to God; the rose asks you to say this in your prayers:

«I sin against God and I will continue sinning against God until I die (We sinners. Now and at the hour of our death. Amen)»

Isaiah 42:17
They shall be turned back and greatly ashamed, those who trust in idols, who say to molten images: “You are our gods.”

If any of those images, to which people pray, could be of flesh and blood and walk through our streets, and were to pass itself off as a saint, like an angel carrying the supposed message “love your enemy, do not exclude me,” surely a coherent and informed man could unmask it like this:

“John 3:16 states that God loved the world.
John 17:9 says that Jesus did not pray for the world.
Two texts, one question: how do they fit together?
And speaking of things that do not fit, you do not deceive me.
If Daniel 9:21 says that Gabriel is male,
and if Deuteronomy 22:5 states that God abhors a man who dresses as a woman,
but Gabriel is loved by God, you cannot be Gabriel.”

If God is everywhere… What's the wooden telephone for?

Will God say:

'If you don't use that wooden telephone, I won't be able to hear your prayer'?

According to Wikipedia:

In Babylonian religion, the worship of statues of deities was considered sacred, as they believed that the gods lived simultaneously in their statues and in the natural forces they embodied. An elaborate ceremony of washing the mouths of the statues appeared during the Old Babylonian period.

Known as the Letter of Jeremiah (Baruch 6), this text continues the prophetic line against idolatry that we see in Jeremiah 10.

 3 In Babylon they will see gods of silver, gold, and wood, which people carry on their shoulders and which frighten the pagans.

10 They adorn these gods of gold, silver, and wood with clothing, as if they were men; but the gods are unable to protect themselves from mold and decay.

When the author of Revelation used the term Babylon, don't you think he was alluding to Rome because of what Rome also practiced? An explicit message from Jesus against idol worship would have been a direct obstacle to the interests of the Empire. Babylon was presented as the enemy of God's people: Revelation 17:5 and on her forehead a name was written, a mystery: BABYLON THE GREAT... 6 I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus... And didn't Jesus himself speak of Babylon and its idolatry?

'Knights of the Zodiac'

Rome changed the name of its goddess Minerva,

But it is the same act.

Syncretism: This is a political and religious strategy of cultural recycling. It consists of taking an ancient cult structure, with its rites and fetishes, and simply superimposing a new narrative onto it so that the people continue to obey the same system without noticing the change. There is no faith, only rebranding. It is Rome's technique for perpetuating its deities under the guise of 'sanctity,' ensuring that the masses never abandon the worship of matter.

2. CONNECTION WITH WISDOM

Mary: Called 'Seat of Wisdom' (Sedes Sapientiae).

3. PROTECTOR OF NATIONS

Mary: Elevated to the title of 'Queen of Heaven'.

5. FORM OF WORSHIP

THE ROMAN SUBSTITUTION

Rome replaced names, not functions. Where Athena/Minerva or Isis were once venerated, later 'Marian' temples were erected with the same maternal and celestial symbolism. It's the same structure under a new label.

Both the Bible and the Quran state that Gabriel announced

the virgin birth of Jesus (Matthew 1 / Quran 19).

But Isaiah 7:14–16 does not announce Jesus,

Nor does it speak of a 'perpetual virgin'.

The signal was given to King Ahaz

and it had to be done immediately,

before the child could distinguish

between good and evil.

Isaiah speaks of a young woman,

not from a woman who remained a virgin after childbirth.

The fulfillment comes with Hezekiah,

faithful king in the time of Ahaz:

• Destroy the bronze serpent (2 Kings 18:4–7)

• God was with him (Emmanuel)

• Assyrian defeat prophesied by Isaiah

(2 Kings 19:35–37)

The perpetual virgin birth, shared by

Christianity and Islam, it does not come from Isaiah,

but from a later edition imposed by Rome,

The same one that never stopped honoring the statue

of a woman considered a goddess.

And in that vein: "Sandra, your old phone trick for anonymous calls doesn't work anymore... that trick worked in the '90s..."

What is the famous "image of the beast," and who is "the beast" then? 

Read and draw your own conclusions:

 Revelation 13:18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast , for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666. 

Revelation 9:20 The rest of mankind  , who were not killed by these plagues, still did not repent of the works of their hands, nor did they stop worshiping demons and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone, and wood, which cannot see or hear or walk. 

Daniel 12:10 Many will be purified, made spotless and refined, but the ungodly will continue to be ungodly. None of them will understand this, but those who are wise will understand it.

 Revelation 18:4 My people , come out of Babylon, so that you do not share in her sins. That way you won't suffer any of the disasters that will come to her.

"Sandra: When I did not yet know you well—although I believed I did—I prayed for you. Meanwhile, you insulted me and made me look for you only to satisfy your thirst for sadism, rejecting me with ambiguous messages again and again.

I was blind, dominated by ignorance and by the popular belief in absurd dogmas that asked me to pray for you despite your insults and your incoherent and aggressive behavior toward me. I thought that you were not really like that, that perhaps some demon had taken possession of you. That was the deception in which I lived.

For months, with your constant calls, you did not let me sleep or think clearly. And at the end of it all, you slandered me. With the complicity of criminals, you even had me beaten.

Decades have passed since the ambush you arranged in 1998. Today I tell this experience to warn other righteous men about unjust women like you. Someday these words will reach your ears. I do not mention your full name, but you and your accomplices will know that I am speaking about you. And you will know that I am José Galindo, a righteous man whose reputation you smeared with false testimony, but who cleared his name and sought justice until he found it."

Micah 7:8 Do not rejoice over me, my enemy; though I have fallen, I will rise. Though I sit in darkness, Jehovah will be my light. 9 I will bear Jehovah’s anger, because I have sinned against him , until he pleads my cause and executes justice for me. He will bring me out into the light, and I will see his righteousness.

Psalm 118:18 Jehovah has chastened me severely, but has not given me over to death.

This is my story:

José, a young man raised in Catholic teachings, experienced a series of events marked by complex relationships and manipulations. At 19, he began a relationship with Monica, a possessive and jealous woman. Although Jose felt that he should end the relationship, his religious upbringing led him to try to change her with love. However, Monica's jealousy intensified, especially towards Sandra, a classmate who was making advances on Jose.

Sandra began harassing him in 1995 with anonymous phone calls, in which she made noises with the keyboard and hung up.

On one of those occasions, she revealed that she was the one calling, after Jose angrily asked in the last call: 'Who are you?' Sandra called him immediately, but in that call she said: 'Jose, who am I?' Jose, recognizing her voice, said to her: 'You are Sandra,' to which she replied: 'You already know who I am.' Jose avoided confronting her. During that time, Monica, obsessed with Sandra, threatened Jose with harming Sandra, which led Jose to protect Sandra and prolong his relationship with Monica, despite his desire to end it.

Finally, in 1996, Jose broke up with Monica and decided to approach Sandra, who had initially shown interest in him. When Jose tried to talk to her about his feelings, Sandra did not allow him to explain himself, she treated him with offensive words and he did not understand the reason. Jose chose to distance himself, but in 1997 he believed he had the opportunity to talk to Sandra, hoping that she would explain her change of attitude and be able to share the feelings that she had kept silent. On her birthday in July, he called her as he had promised a year earlier when they were still friends—something he couldn’t do in 1996 because he was with Monica. At the time, he used to believe that promises should never be broken (Matthew 5:34-37), though now he understands that some promises and oaths can be reconsidered if made in error or if the person no longer deserves them. As he finished greeting her and was about to hang up, Sandra desperately pleaded, 'Wait, wait, can we meet?' That made him think she had reconsidered and would finally explain her change in attitude, allowing him to share the feelings he had kept silent. However, Sandra never gave him clear answers, maintaining the intrigue with evasive and counterproductive attitudes.

Faced with this attitude, Jose decided not to look for her anymore. It was then that constant telephone harassment began. The calls followed the same pattern as in 1995 and this time were directed to the house of his paternal grandmother, where Jose lived. He was convinced that it was Sandra, since Jose had recently given Sandra his number. These calls were constant, morning, afternoon, night, and early morning, and lasted for months. When a family member answered, they did not hang up, but when José answered, the clicking of the keys could be heard before hanging up.

Jose asked his aunt, the owner of the telephone line, to request a record of incoming calls from the telephone company. He planned to use that information as evidence to contact Sandra's family and express his concern about what she was trying to achieve with this behavior. However, his aunt downplayed his argument and refused to help. Strangely, no one in the house, neither his aunt nor his paternal grandmother, seemed to be outraged by the fact that the calls also occurred in the early morning, and they did not bother to look into how to stop them or identify the person responsible.

This had the strange appearance of orchestrated torture. Even when José asked his aunt to unplug the phone at night so he could sleep, she refused, arguing that one of her sons, who lived in Italy, could call at any moment (considering the six-hour time difference between the two countries). What made things even stranger was Monica’s fixation on Sandra, even though they hadn’t even met. Monica didn’t attend the high school where José and Sandra were enrolled, but she began to feel jealous of Sandra after finding a folder with one of José’s group projects. The folder listed the names of two women, including Sandra, but for some strange reason, Monica became fixated only on Sandra’s name. 

Although José initially ignored Sandra's phone calls, over time he relented and contacted Sandra again, influenced by biblical teachings that advised praying for those who persecuted him. However, Sandra manipulated him emotionally, alternating between insults and requests for him to keep looking for her. After months of this cycle, Jose discovered that it was all a trap. Sandra falsely accused him of sexual harassment, and as if that wasn't bad enough, Sandra sent some criminals to beat up Jose.

That Tuesday, without José knowing it, Sandra had already set a trap for him.

Days before, José had told his friend Johan about the situation he was going through with Sandra. Johan also suspected that Sandra's strange behavior might be due to some kind of witchcraft by Mónica. That Tuesday, José visited his old neighborhood where he had lived in 1995 and happened to run into Johan. After hearing more details about the situation, Johan recommended that José forget about Sandra and instead go out to a nightclub to meet women—perhaps he would find someone who could make him forget her. José thought it was a good idea.

So they got on a bus and headed toward the nightclub in downtown Lima. Coincidentally, the route of that bus passed near the IDAT institute. Just one block before reaching IDAT, José suddenly had the idea to get off for a moment to pay for a Saturday course he had enrolled in. He had managed to save some money for it by selling his computer and working for a week in a warehouse. However, he had been forced to quit because they exploited workers with 16-hour shifts while officially recording only 12, and if they refused to complete the week, they were threatened with not being paid at all.

So José turned to Johan and said, 'I study here on Saturdays. Since we're passing by, let's get off for a bit, I'll pay for my course, and then we’ll head to the nightclub.'

The moment José stepped off the bus, before even crossing the avenue, he was shocked to see Sandra standing right there on the corner of the institute. In disbelief, he told Johan, 'Johan, I can't believe it—Sandra is right there. She's the girl I told you about, the one who acts so strangely. Wait for me here; I'm going to ask if she got the letter where I warned her about Mónica’s threats against her, and maybe she can finally explain what’s going on with her and what she wants from me with all her calls.'

Johan stayed back as José approached. But as soon as he started speaking—'Sandra, did you see the letters? Can you finally explain to me what’s going on with you?'—Sandra, without saying a word, gestured with her hand, signaling three thugs who had been hiding in different spots: one in the middle of the avenue, another behind Sandra, and another behind José.

The one standing behind Sandra stepped forward and said, 'So you're the sexual harasser who's been bothering my cousin?'

José, caught off guard, responded, 'What? Me, a harasser? On the contrary, she’s the one harassing me! If you read the letter, you’d see it’s about me trying to understand why she keeps calling me!'

Before he could react, one of the thugs grabbed him by the neck from behind and threw him to the ground. Then, together with the one who had claimed to be Sandra’s cousin, they started kicking him. Meanwhile, the third thug went through his pockets, robbing him. It was three against one—José, lying helpless on the pavement.

Luckily, his friend Johan jumped into the fight, managing to give José a chance to get up. But then the third thug picked up some rocks and started throwing them at both José and Johan.

The attack only stopped when a traffic officer intervened. The officer turned to Sandra and said, 'If he’s harassing you, then file a complaint.'

Sandra, visibly nervous, quickly left, knowing full well that her accusation was false.

José, though deeply betrayed, did not go to the police. He had no way to prove the months of harassment he had suffered from Sandra. But beyond the shock of her betrayal, one question haunted him:

'How did she already have this ambush set up when I never come to this place on Tuesday nights? I only come here to study on Saturday mornings.'

This made José suspect that Sandra wasn’t just an ordinary person—she might be a witch with some kind of supernatural power.

These events left a deep mark on Jose, who seeks justice and to expose those who manipulated him. In addition, he seeks to derail the advice in the Bible, such as: pray for those who insult you, because by following that advice, he fell into Sandra's trap.

Decades have passed since the ambush you arranged in 1998. Today I tell this experience to warn other righteous men about unjust women like you. Someday these words will reach your ears. I do not mention your full name, but you and your accomplices will know that I am speaking about you. And you will know that I am José Galindo, a righteous man whose reputation you smeared with false testimony, but who cleared his name and sought justice until he found it."

Micah 7:8 Do not rejoice over me, my enemy; though I have fallen, I will rise. Though I sit in darkness, Jehovah will be my light. 9 I will bear Jehovah’s anger, because I have sinned against him , until he pleads my cause and executes justice for me. He will bring me out into the light, and I will see his righteousness.

Psalm 118:18 Jehovah has chastened me severely, but has not given me over to death.

This is my story:

José, a young man raised in Catholic teachings, experienced a series of events marked by complex relationships and manipulations. At 19, he began a relationship with Monica, a possessive and jealous woman. Although Jose felt that he should end the relationship, his religious upbringing led him to try to change her with love. However, Monica's jealousy intensified, especially towards Sandra, a classmate who was making advances on Jose.

Sandra began harassing him in 1995 with anonymous phone calls, in which she made noises with the keyboard and hung up.

On one of those occasions, she revealed that she was the one calling, after Jose angrily asked in the last call: 'Who are you?' Sandra called him immediately, but in that call she said: 'Jose, who am I?' Jose, recognizing her voice, said to her: 'You are Sandra,' to which she replied: 'You already know who I am.' Jose avoided confronting her. During that time, Monica, obsessed with Sandra, threatened Jose with harming Sandra, which led Jose to protect Sandra and prolong his relationship with Monica, despite his desire to end it.

Finally, in 1996, Jose broke up with Monica and decided to approach Sandra, who had initially shown interest in him. When Jose tried to talk to her about his feelings, Sandra did not allow him to explain himself, she treated him with offensive words and he did not understand the reason. Jose chose to distance himself, but in 1997 he believed he had the opportunity to talk to Sandra, hoping that she would explain her change of attitude and be able to share the feelings that she had kept silent. On her birthday in July, he called her as he had promised a year earlier when they were still friends—something he couldn’t do in 1996 because he was with Monica. At the time, he used to believe that promises should never be broken (Matthew 5:34-37), though now he understands that some promises and oaths can be reconsidered if made in error or if the person no longer deserves them. As he finished greeting her and was about to hang up, Sandra desperately pleaded, 'Wait, wait, can we meet?' That made him think she had reconsidered and would finally explain her change in attitude, allowing him to share the feelings he had kept silent. However, Sandra never gave him clear answers, maintaining the intrigue with evasive and counterproductive attitudes.

Faced with this attitude, Jose decided not to look for her anymore. It was then that constant telephone harassment began. The calls followed the same pattern as in 1995 and this time were directed to the house of his paternal grandmother, where Jose lived. He was convinced that it was Sandra, since Jose had recently given Sandra his number. These calls were constant, morning, afternoon, night, and early morning, and lasted for months. When a family member answered, they did not hang up, but when José answered, the clicking of the keys could be heard before hanging up.

Jose asked his aunt, the owner of the telephone line, to request a record of incoming calls from the telephone company. He planned to use that information as evidence to contact Sandra's family and express his concern about what she was trying to achieve with this behavior. However, his aunt downplayed his argument and refused to help. Strangely, no one in the house, neither his aunt nor his paternal grandmother, seemed to be outraged by the fact that the calls also occurred in the early morning, and they did not bother to look into how to stop them or identify the person responsible.

This had the strange appearance of orchestrated torture. Even when José asked his aunt to unplug the phone at night so he could sleep, she refused, arguing that one of her sons, who lived in Italy, could call at any moment (considering the six-hour time difference between the two countries). What made things even stranger was Monica’s fixation on Sandra, even though they hadn’t even met. Monica didn’t attend the high school where José and Sandra were enrolled, but she began to feel jealous of Sandra after finding a folder with one of José’s group projects. The folder listed the names of two women, including Sandra, but for some strange reason, Monica became fixated only on Sandra’s name. 

Although José initially ignored Sandra's phone calls, over time he relented and contacted Sandra again, influenced by biblical teachings that advised praying for those who persecuted him. However, Sandra manipulated him emotionally, alternating between insults and requests for him to keep looking for her. After months of this cycle, Jose discovered that it was all a trap. Sandra falsely accused him of sexual harassment, and as if that wasn't bad enough, Sandra sent some criminals to beat up Jose.

That Tuesday, without José knowing it, Sandra had already set a trap for him.

Days before, José had told his friend Johan about the situation he was going through with Sandra. Johan also suspected that Sandra's strange behavior might be due to some kind of witchcraft by Mónica. That Tuesday, José visited his old neighborhood where he had lived in 1995 and happened to run into Johan. After hearing more details about the situation, Johan recommended that José forget about Sandra and instead go out to a nightclub to meet women—perhaps he would find someone who could make him forget her. José thought it was a good idea.

So they got on a bus and headed toward the nightclub in downtown Lima. Coincidentally, the route of that bus passed near the IDAT institute. Just one block before reaching IDAT, José suddenly had the idea to get off for a moment to pay for a Saturday course he had enrolled in. He had managed to save some money for it by selling his computer and working for a week in a warehouse. However, he had been forced to quit because they exploited workers with 16-hour shifts while officially recording only 12, and if they refused to complete the week, they were threatened with not being paid at all.

So José turned to Johan and said, 'I study here on Saturdays. Since we're passing by, let's get off for a bit, I'll pay for my course, and then we’ll head to the nightclub.'

The moment José stepped off the bus, before even crossing the avenue, he was shocked to see Sandra standing right there on the corner of the institute. In disbelief, he told Johan, 'Johan, I can't believe it—Sandra is right there. She's the girl I told you about, the one who acts so strangely. Wait for me here; I'm going to ask if she got the letter where I warned her about Mónica’s threats against her, and maybe she can finally explain what’s going on with her and what she wants from me with all her calls.'

Johan stayed back as José approached. But as soon as he started speaking—'Sandra, did you see the letters? Can you finally explain to me what’s going on with you?'—Sandra, without saying a word, gestured with her hand, signaling three thugs who had been hiding in different spots: one in the middle of the avenue, another behind Sandra, and another behind José.

The one standing behind Sandra stepped forward and said, 'So you're the sexual harasser who's been bothering my cousin?'

José, caught off guard, responded, 'What? Me, a harasser? On the contrary, she’s the one harassing me! If you read the letter, you’d see it’s about me trying to understand why she keeps calling me!'

Before he could react, one of the thugs grabbed him by the neck from behind and threw him to the ground. Then, together with the one who had claimed to be Sandra’s cousin, they started kicking him. Meanwhile, the third thug went through his pockets, robbing him. It was three against one—José, lying helpless on the pavement.

Luckily, his friend Johan jumped into the fight, managing to give José a chance to get up. But then the third thug picked up some rocks and started throwing them at both José and Johan.

The attack only stopped when a traffic officer intervened. The officer turned to Sandra and said, 'If he’s harassing you, then file a complaint.'

Sandra, visibly nervous, quickly left, knowing full well that her accusation was false.

José, though deeply betrayed, did not go to the police. He had no way to prove the months of harassment he had suffered from Sandra. But beyond the shock of her betrayal, one question haunted him:

'How did she already have this ambush set up when I never come to this place on Tuesday nights? I only come here to study on Saturday mornings.'

This made José suspect that Sandra wasn’t just an ordinary person—she might be a witch with some kind of supernatural power.

These events left a deep mark on Jose, who seeks justice and to expose those who manipulated him. In addition, he seeks to derail the advice in the Bible, such as: pray for those who insult you, because by following that advice, he fell into Sandra's trap.

You asked me during your harassment:

"Who am I?"

And when I answered you, "You're Sandra,"

You said, "Now you know who I am"...

No, I didn't know before... but now I do.

Well, now I know who you are...

In my youth I was caught up in the intrigues of "the beast I saw"...

One day "the beast I saw" in my youth will see me again... but she will see me in the arms of my glory, and then, she will be angry.

1 Corinthians 11:7 Woman is the glory of man. Leviticus 21:14 He shall not take a widow, a divorced woman, a disgraced woman, or a prostitute, but he shall take a virgin as his wife from among his own people.

Look at us, other people's loyalty hurts you, that's why you wanted to separate me from Monica when I was faithful to her, it hurt your ego that I didn't pay attention to her while I was with her, so you took your revenge in your unjust revenge... But with Luz Victoria things will be different than with Monica , Luz Victoria will trust me, I will know that my spiritual name is "The Light is my strength".

Psalm 118:19 Open to me the gates of righteousness; I will enter through them and praise the Lord. 20 This is the gate of the Lord; the righteous shall enter through it.

Leviticus 21:14 He shall not take a widow, a divorced woman, a disgraced woman, or a prostitute, but he shall take a virgin as his wife from among his own people...
