Facts can be both tough and rewarding, each lives in another place.

By the skillful and sustained use of propaganda, one can make a people see even heaven as hell or an extremely wretched life as paradise.
He alone, who owns the youth, gains the future.

I use emotion for the many and reserve reason for the few.
If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.
Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it.
 author is (Hitler) Little may have changed!?
 Lessons in politcal science by  one who used them well, Hitler, It's why we feel it;s very important to know what's going on around us, certain lessons need to be learnt well the first time or they will borrowed to be used else where.

Hope!

We wait for (apekdexometa).


Rare and late double compound (perfective use of prepositions like wait out) which vividly pictures Paul's eagerness for the second coming of Christ as the normal attitude of the Christian colonist whose home is heaven. (At Robertson...)



Our citizenship (hmwn to politeuma).



Old word from piliteuw (Philippians 1:27), but only here in N.T. The inscriptions use it either for citizenship or for commonwealth. Paul was proud of his Roman citizenship and found it a protection. The Philippians were also proud of their Roman citizenship. But Christians are citizens of a kingdom not of this world (John 18:36). Milligan (Vocabulary) doubts if commentators are entitled to translate it here: "We are a colony of heaven," because such a translation reverses the relation between the colony and the mother city. But certainly here Paul's heart is in heaven.


According to the working (kata thn energeian).




"According to the energy." If any one doubts the power of Christ to do this transformation, Paul replies that he has power "even to subject all things unto himself."


True freedom is in Christ alone.
