Incognito Diary of a Real, Living Christian Martyr 08.21.08-08.22.08
Evicting the Righteous for being righteous!
Everything I fear, hate, and earnestly despise has become my prison, my oppressed life!
I am forced to live incognito now for personal safety reasons and was relocated here... to rot in a droll environment of mostly belligerent and ignorant illiterates!
Everything that I feared, hated and despised has come upon me and is daily affecting my life, ruining me and causing me to be utterly miserable!
My house where I moved into has other house mates and who have made it their mission to mistreat me, and though our landlord had made threats to evict people, they do not fear but comfort one another in the fact that they can continue to torment me as a Christian Believer and man-of-the-cloth, as I "deserve it for always being right"!
I was very friendly and helpful, reflecting Jesus in all that I did, but I have had to stop as the landlord has threatened to evict people for the trouble in the house between Christian goodness and deeds, and those who despise God and anyone that is truly good!
Our house has become an oppressive, spiritual prison, looking lovely from the outside, but metaphorically or prophetically speaking and comparing to Jesus' words about tombs looking lovely from the outside but inside being filled with all filth, corruption and dead people's bones!
I woke up this morning all quite depressed, realizing that our good' landlord is threatening to evict people across the board, good and bad, so that there will be peace in the house, and I myself have spent hundreds of dollars of my own income to improve and charm up our house into a quaint and lovely home, and I worked as a caretaker for free looking after the needs of our landlord to free him from worry to do all the other things that he must concern himself with, running a business or two, caring for his family and any involvement in his church as well, working seventy plus hours a week!
But since people here who are quite corrupt sabotage all the good that I do, destroying the things I have worked and purchased to bless our home' with, and even horrible slander me with their lies; the landlord claims that he will simply begin evicting tenants until apartments in his house are empty to solve this constant, turmoil-filled problem!
I live in danger from a far reaching and dangerous syndicate of murder-for-hire, kidnapping, grifting and drug smuggling and manufacturing as well; and I live in a charming looking house that has now surely become an oppressive prison and tomb!
I no longer have anything to look forward to here, and I can no longer garden or work on the interior of our house, as my health allows! If there is any more trouble here, the good', Christian landlord will simply evict tenants here across the board until he has cured the problem here! And those causing all the trouble, being so very sneaky and sly, keep persecuting me and doing things to irritate me, doing things I will not here list
But I will tell you this, whatever it means, but since the landlord's relative has moved in as well, the smell of Marijuana has become quite rich in the household air! And my asthma has become a real problem!
And I worry, as once the house caretaker and now ill with migraines, nausea, right side paralysis and right ear bleeding; am I about to be evicted for being the victim of unruly and vindictive persons, and by our landlord who is threatening to evict the good with the bad to achieve peace and less interruptions to his already busy, seventy-hours a week plus, work weeks?
Is this oppression and are these threats real and/or necessary? (Oppression, persecution and threats of eviction! Oh my!)
