Hi Lester
Holy Quran chapter 29, verse 61:
If indeed thou ask them who has created the heavens and the earth and subjected the sun and the moon (to his Law), they will certainly reply, “Allah”. How are they then deluded away (from the truth)?
how many never met Allah ? All of them
wow, mad respect lil man! keep it up! welcome to America! hope you make the best of it!
“Hard work beats talent if talent does not have hard work.” ~Tanitoluwa Adewumi, 10-year-old chess master 💖
Yeah well, how important is chess when six year old kids are being shot?
@Rod Dan Lives Chess got him and his family out of poverty. Kids are hurt every day (it’s horrible) but we have to keep on living and praise kids for doing good work.

Chess is a game just like Baseball. It really is not that important when someone is suffering. Actually it is non-sense! Do something about homeless American Citizens! They are economic refugees!
Sorry, no time to worry about our own citizens. Too busy saving the world……

wise words from a 10 year old
“Warriors confront the evil that most people REFUSE to acknowledge!”
– (The BIG Picture)
“The First World War must be brought about in order to permit the Illuminati to overthrow the power of the Czars in Russia and of making that country a FORTRESS of atheistic COMMUNISM. The divergences caused by the “agentur” (agents) of the Illuminati between the British and Germanic Empires will be used to foment this war. At the end of the war, Communism will be built and used in order to DESTROY the other governments and in order to WEAKEN the religions.
The Second World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences between the Fascists and the political Zionists. This war must be brought about so that Nazism is destroyed and that the political Zionism be strong enough to institute a sovereign state of Israel in Palestine. During the Second World War, International COMMUNISM must become strong enough in order to balance Christendom, which would be then restrained and held in check until the time when we would need it for the FINAL social cataclysm.
The Third World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences caused by the agentur of the “Illuminati” between the political Zionists and the leaders of Islamic World. The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam and political Zionism mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion…
We shall unleash the Nihilists and the atheists (China, Russia) and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil.
Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure DOCTRINE OF LUCIFER, brought finally out in the PUBLIC view.
This manifestation will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both CONQUERED and EXTERMINATED at the same time.” – Albert Pike (100% accurate predicting ALL 3 World Wars)
“Masonry, like all the Religions, all the Mysteries, Hermeticism and Alchemy, CONCEALS its secrets from all except the Adepts and Sages, or the Elect, and uses FALSE explanations and misinterpretations of its symbols to MISLEAD those who deserve only to be misled; to CONCEAL the Truth, which it calls Light from them and to draw them AWAY from it.”
Fictions are necessary for the people, and the Truth becomes deadly to those who are not strong enough to contemplate it in all its brilliance. In fact, what can there be in common between the vile multitude and sublime wisdom? The Truth must be kept SECRET, and the masses need a teaching proportioned to their imperfect reason.”
“That which we must say to the crowd is, we worship a god, but it is the god one adores without superstition. To you sovereign grand inspector general, we say this and you may repeat it to the brethren of the 32nd, 31st and 30th degrees – the Masonic religion should be by all of us initiates of the HIGH degrees, maintained in the purity of the luciferian doctrine. Yes, lucifer is god!” – Albert Pike (Was a Lawyer, writer, Confederate General and a 33 degree Freemason/Satanic Illuminati.)
– Albert Pike published this in a book “Morals & Dogma” in 1871. WW1 started in 1914, the Nazi party was established in 1920. Let that sink in…
Revelation 12:9
“And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which DECEIVETH the WHOLE world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”
John 3:16
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
