day no. 16,540: fighting by definition

“The religion of the Servile State must have no dogmas or definitions. It cannot afford to have any definitions. For definitions are very dreadful things: they do the two things that most men, especially comfortable men, cannot endure. They fight; and they fight fair.” — G.K. Chesterton, Utopia of Usurers

There is a reason the wicked do not claim to know what a woman is. Definitions require deferral. If an agreed upon, static, concrete state of affairs is acknowledged, then it is also acknowledged that one has an obligation to submit to it. Obedience is implicit. And the last thing lawlessness wants is an obligation to obey anything outside of itself. Lawlessness is a law unto itself. It submits only to its own wants, which may change and are permitted to do so when the law of the land is whatever it wants in particular at this very moment. That is why you can be shouted down today for obeying what they demanded you do yesterday. You can be found guilty for obeying yesterday's demands.

"If I gave in to the Inquisitors, I should at least know what creed to profess. But even if I yelled out a credo when the Eugenists had me on the rack, I should not know what creed to yell. I might get an extra turn of the rack for confessing to the creed they confessed quite a week ago.” — G.K. Chesterton, Eugenics and Other Evils

Of course they keep moving the goal posts. The only goal posts they have are that they get to decide where the goal posts go. That is their only standard. And when the rules rise up from within, they will vary weekly for without.

Isaiah 5:20-21

Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil;

that put darkness for light, and light for darkness;

that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes,

and prudent in their own sight!

The wicked know what the righteous forget: he who controls the dictionary controls the world. The wicked, however, forget that there is a God who defines their contradictions as treason. The righteous would do well to remember the Word of God who defines the lines.

Proverbs 14:12, 16:25

There is a way which seemeth right unto a man,

but the end thereof are the ways of death.

The wicked insist on getting their way... and they will. Little do they know, however, that the way they will get is death. Their dictionaries will not dictate to the Word. He will define them according to their deeds and their wages of sin according to His Word is death.
