The Vanity of Gain and Honor

The vanity and madness of that which is Trump... does not good for man, he curse the nation, its laws and its governance, for his aim is of gain, and in his pursuit of greed, there is no honor. Such a man is of severe evil.

The Vanity of Gain and Honor

8 If you see the oppression of the poor, and the violent perversion of justice and righteousness in a province, do not marvel at the matter; for high official watches over high official, and higher officials are over them.

9 Moreover the profit of the land is for all; even the king is served from the field.

10 He who loves silver will not be satisfied with silver;
Nor he who loves abundance, with increase.
This also is vanity.
11 When goods increase,
They increase who eat them;
So what profit have the owners
Except to see them with their eyes?
12 The sleep of a laboring man is sweet,
Whether he eats little or much;
But the abundance of the rich will not permit him to sleep.
13 There is a severe evil which I have seen under the sun:
Riches kept for their owner to his hurt.
14 But those riches perish through [c]misfortune;
When he begets a son, there is nothing in his hand.
15 As he came from his mother’s womb, naked shall he return,
To go as he came;
And he shall take nothing from his labor
Which he may carry away in his hand.
16 And this also is a severe evil—
Just exactly as he came, so shall he go.
And what profit has he who has labored for the wind?
17 All his days he also eats in darkness,
And he has much sorrow and sickness and anger.


Those who come to lead with truth and honor of the people and good heart to do good for the people, is one who brings blessing. He too is one, who despise that which curse the people, he despise that which curse the nation and he despise that which rapes the fields and have no regard for the land. For this is a man who's works honor much. We saw this in and through the works of President Obama..


18 Here is what I have seen: It is good and fitting for one to eat and drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labor in which he toils under the sun all the days of his life which God gives him; for it is his [d]heritage. 19 As for every man to whom God has given riches and wealth, and given him power to eat of it, to receive his [e]heritage and rejoice in his labor—this is the gift of God. 20 For he will not dwell unduly on the days of his life, because God keeps him busy with the joy of his heart.


What was given and what was within the works of society for the good of civilization and the individual lives of man, was the works that President Obama brought to America and chose to share with the world. He saw the cries of the poor, and the pains of the destitute, and his works were to bring to all a new awakenings. "Change"... he said !!!

His devoted heart worked tirelessly to lift up all, and make fair a many fields for the labor and harvest of mankind, that all may share and have a life in the vast abundance created by the hands of many.

He was attacked by the vain and assaulted on a daily basis by the greedy... he was challenged at each step and turn that he worked to help the needy and in his good works to make policy that liberty is made free for all. He was accosted by the vain and the vile.

Then enters the Savage, (Trump) seeking to undo the good, and destroy the works that were of design to serve and help many. The Savage came with a spew of vile and contempt at all that makes up the society and its governance over the land and the people. The Savage... pursues havoc in the world and contempt against all that the many nations of the world works to build up humanity and pursue the gain of peace and good will. The Savage awakens with contempt and by nigh devise malice that he may spread vile in the coming of the next day. Such is Evil, the Severe Evil of a Savage. (Trump)
He seeks praise for malice, and wants honor for the creation and promotion of vile, Such is Evil, the Severe Evil of a Savage. (Trump)

The vile he has done and the malice he has made shall come to its abrupt end and for generations to come, his name will be despised and his gain, squandered and made worthless, and he will be known for the evil he created, and shall be made the face of an evilness, he will be forever known as "Such is Evil, the Severe Evil of a Savage." (Trump)

He who can believe in Truth when lies swirl all about, is he who has invested that he may understand enough to discern, is he who can find the works of truth, yet he may not hold truth as his own, but he may enjoin with it that it may spread further into and among many.

Thus so... one has to give attention to that which he hold value, and in such he finds what is honor, even if it not bestowed upon him, he shall be among the honorable. Lest he became haughty, and consumed in vanity, he cast himself from among the honorable.

Its a time ....

The Vanity of Life
1 The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.

2 “Vanity[a] of vanities,” says the Preacher;
“Vanity of vanities, all is vanity.”
3 What profit has a man from all his labor
In which he toils under the sun?
4 One generation passes away, and another generation comes;
But the earth abides forever.
5 The sun also rises, and the sun goes down,
And [c]hastens to the place where it arose.
6 The wind goes toward the south,
And turns around to the north;
The wind whirls about continually,
And comes again on its circuit.
7 All the rivers run into the sea,
Yet the sea is not full;
To the place from which the rivers come,
There they return again.
8 All things are [d]full of labor;
Man cannot express it.
The eye is not satisfied with seeing,
Nor the ear filled with hearing.
9 That which has been is what will be,
That which is done is what will be done,
And there is nothing new under the sun.
10 Is there anything of which it may be said,
“See, this is new”?
It has already been in ancient times before us.
11 There is no remembrance of former things,
Nor will there be any remembrance of things that are to come
By those who will come after.


Therefore is it unto each...

He who can believe in Truth when lies swirl all about, is he who has invested that he may understand enough to discern, is he who can find the works of truth, yet he may not hold truth as his own, but he may enjoy it that it may spread further into and among many.

So in our day and time, we come to seek the need to spread the truths we have come to know of Democracy.....
