If you think you are helping others by wearing a mask in public, you aren’t.

You are not helping. You are stoking the fear of others and perpetuating a deception. You have fallen into a trap. 

You are not a biohazard. Your body, in its normal healthy state, is not a danger to others.

You are a child of the most High God, Creator of all things. God’s children honor God by respecting the innate immune system. 

If you are sick, stay home and eat healing foods provided by your Creator. If God made it, go for it. If many hands have touched it in processing and mass production, avoid it. Think carefully about any pharmaceutical product you accept for your body, God’s temple.

How can I write on such a controversial topic? As a Christian, saved by God’s grace, called to love others, avidly researching health topics for decades, I feel it is my God given duty to call out deception and the devil’s schemes.

Many say I must show love to others and wear a mask. They see me without a mask and conclude that I can’t be bothered with the inconvenience. They say “people should be willing to take precautions for the benefit of the community even if it’s not fun.”

Fun is not my priority when I think about masks.

Christians demonstrate love for others by demonstrating bold faith in God. 

God reveals His plan for humanity in the Gospel of Jesus Christ which is received by faith and results in faith. “The righteous will live by faith.” (Romans 1:17)

How do we protect and nurture our health? Seek to know Jesus, the source of salvation and all power. God desires His children to have strength. He wants His children to trust Him and have faith in all His provisions.

Are we following fools?

Those who refuse to honor and thank God are futile in their thinking and their foolish hearts are darkened. Professing to be wise, they are fools” because they reject God. (see more Romans 1:16-25)

God has revealed Himself to all. Most (the broad road described by Jesus in Matthew 7) do NOT honor God or give Him thanks. People who do not honor God or give Him thanks become futile in their speculations and their foolish hearts are darkened. They think they are wise. They may even have multiple degrees and a lot of respect in our culture. They are still fools. Are we following fools? Are we trusting fools? Are we committing our health to fools? 

A brief review of the contradicting information supplied to the public should confirm that there is chaos, not wisdom, in the recommendations on what is good for public health.

Have you investigated the health impact of wearing masks?

• Masks significantly reduce oxygen input to the body. God designed your body to function by breathing in oxygen and breathing out carbon dioxide. Masks reduce oxygen intake and cause in-breathing carbon dioxide. This is dangerous. Look up OSHA guidelines for mask wearing in different occupational settings.
• Mask wearing results in an accumulation of bacteria and a moist environment that you continually rebreathe. 
• Mask wearing interferes with communication. People are misunderstood because their words are incoherent.
• Mask wearing reduces understanding between people because so much of our communication depends on reading the cues in the face.
• Wearing masks can cause feelings of isolation and helplessness.
• Wearing masks can bring harm both physically, mentally, and socially.
• There is no solid science supporting the push to make healthy people wear masks in public.
• Mask wearing can increase infections and ill health – especially among the general population who touch the mask frequently, re-use masks, and are not able to replace, wash or dispose masks properly.

Masks are a divisive issue that the enemy is using to lead many astray. Above all we must love others, but love does not mean following fools and harming myself. Love is seeking the truth, following Jesus, and living without fear as God’s beloved child. 

Be bold. Be strong. This is the calling for all God’s children. God is with His children. Your bold confidence will inspire others to take off their muzzles and break the mask spell.

I’ve got so much more information. Perhaps there will be more on masks to follow…

What about the immunocompromised? What if my employer mandates masks?

Becky Hastings collects information on health and tries her best to discover and expose deception. Formerly I was deeply deceived, followed the lies of the enemy, and learned firsthand the lies of the enemy. By God’s grace I am saved and seek to bring glory to Jesus Christ, my Savior, and another point of view to all God’s children. All respectful comments appreciated. Together we can help each other discover a healthy path in this crazy upside down world.
