Recently, I decided to start a new social media platform.
This decision came because MeWe is promoting gay pride. Facebook restricts free speech and truth. Twitter works in cooperation with the New World Order.
Gab is run by hateful demonic people who hate everyone from the tribe of Judah.
Gab and Truth Social doesn’t restrict the spreading of lies.
We are in need of a social media network that doesn’t restrict the freedom of speech of the truth, while at the same time restricting the lies.
Lies do not help anyone. Lies deceive and hold people in bondage. Lies and deception are deadly to our soul.
Lies are used by the New World Order to program people to be easily controlled.
It’s very well documented that the communist nations of Russia and China have for many decades sought the destruction of America by implanting moral corruption and social decay. It is well documented that they are using homosexuality and the Democrat party to cause moral decay which results in destruction.
We must have a social network that restricts and prohibits the pro Russia, pro communist, New World Order programming.
I sought Jesus about the name of our new social media network. And He led me to this Greek word: Parrhesia.
Pronounced: “Par-ray-sia” or “par-ray-see-ah”.
Parrhesia: Freedom to speak the truth boldly.
There are several conditions upon which the traditional ancient Greek notion of parrhesia relies. One who uses parrhesia is only recognized as doing so if holding a credible relationship to the truth, if one serves as critic to either oneself or popular opinion or culture, if the revelation of this truth places one in a position of danger and one persists in speaking the truth, nevertheless, as one feels it is a moral, social, and/or political obligation.
Foucault (1983) sums up the ancient Greek concept of parrhesia as follows:
The parrhesiastes is someone who takes a risk. Of course, this risk is not always a risk of life. When, for example, you see a friend doing something wrong and you risk incurring his anger by telling him he is wrong, you are acting as a parrhesiastes.
In the Classical period, parrhesia was a fundamental component of the Athenian democracy. In the courts or the Ecclesia, the assembly of citizens, Athenians were free to say almost anything. In the Dionysia, playwrights such as Aristophanes made full use of their right to ridicule whomever they chose. Outside of the theatre or government however, there were limits to what might be said; freedom to discuss politics, morals, religion, or to criticize people would depend upon the context: by whom it was made, and when, and how, and where.

Strong’s Concordance Greek word #3954
https://www.blueletterbible.org/lexicon/g3954/nasb95/tr/0-1/
This Greek word never appears in Matthew and Luke.
It appears only once in Mark.
5 times in Acts, written by Luke.
But it appears 8 times in John, and 4 times in 1 John.
A total of 9 times in the writings of Paul.
4 times in Hebrews, written by Philo.
Sometimes it is translated as boldly, openly, with confidence, and plainly.
The usage of the Greek should always be considered in the context in which it was written, just like all of scripture should be, and just like the US Constitution and Declaration of Independence should be.
The American founding fathers had no intention of protecting the freedom of speech of lies and deception and false religion. Instead, the context was freedom of speech to speak the truth against the Church of England and the Catholic Church and the king of England. It was independence from tyranny and false religion, while preserving freedom of the truth movement.
Acts 4:24-31 (In the face of opposition of wicked people.)
:29 with all confidence.
:31 with boldness.
Acts 28:31 preaching the kingdom of God and teaching concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all openness G3954, unhindered.
John 16:25 “These things I have spoken to you in figurative language; an hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figurative language, but will tell you plainly G3954 of the Father.
Hebrews 4:16 Therefore let us draw near with confidence G3954 to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
Hebrews 10:19 Therefore, brethren, since we have confidence G3954 to enter the holy place by the blood of Jesus.
The Will of God:
Ephesians 5:11 Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.
1 Timothy 4:1 Now the Holy Spirit tells us clearly that in the last times some will turn away from the true faith; they will follow deceptive spirits and teachings that come from demons.
2 Timothy 4:3-4 For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths.
Titus 1:9-16 (Page 241 of the AOB) The true ministers of the gospel should silence the mouths/speech of wicked people.
2 Corinthians 6:11-18 Separate selves from the wicked.
Psalm 31:18 Let the deceitful lips be mute/silenced.

Parrhesia Social Network is an exclusive membership network for Conservative Christians who accept Jesus as God. All memberships must be approved. All posts must be approved. All groups must be approved.
The US Supreme Court has repeatedly declared that Christians have the legal and constitutional right to refuse things that violate our religious belief.
Usage of fake names are allowed for the protection of your privacy. But all members are required to have a fully completed profile including the sections of “About me” and “interests”. But photos are not required.
Members are required to participate in the groups that they join. Groups are required to remain active, or else be deleted. A social network is meant to be social with interaction, not just a blog that people just read and do not participate. Inactive members and inactive groups are a waste of space on the network and will be deleted.
All of these rules have the purpose of preventing spam, preventing trouble makers, and promoting an environment of safe communication and networking of like-minded people.
Information on address and how to connect/join, will be released after we get it up and running and tested.
