"Sir Meliodas and the Great Red Dragon"
A cautionary fable for our modern world.
by Mike Adams
“There is a great red dragon,” he began slowly, as the candlelight flickered across the faces of all those in attendance. “And I overhead it planning to destroy everything in this town; the buildings, the homes, and even to bring death to all those who live here.” The townspeople were stunned into silence. They had believed this would be a night of tales of conquest or adventuring, not a warning that they might all be destroyed. It was not an idea they were prepared to entertain.
And so the psychology of denial was unleashed in their minds. “There’s no such thing as dragon!” shouted Olef the butcher. “I’ve seen every animal that can be ate, and I ain’t never seen a leg ‘o dragon in my shop!” “He’s right!” barked the Guard Captain, keeper of the peace and local law authority. “There are no dragons! I’ve been Guard Captain for over thirty years and I’ve seen every threat you can imagine, but I’ve never seen me a dragon!”
The townspeople looked to Sir Meliodas for an answer. Sensing the demand for an explanation, he carefully replied, “My dear townspeople, although you are correct in believing that a dragon has never yet crossed the path of our delightful town, this is about to change. An event will soon take place that will destroy your businesses, your homes, your livelihoods and even many of your lives if we do not take precautions against it. I saw with my own two eyes and heard with my own ears the red dragon beast,” he continued. “Larger than ten horses, with wings so immense they could reach across the width of this very tavern. He was highly intelligent, able to speak, able to plan, and he unknowingly revealed to me his plan for destroying this town and everything in it. I only bring you warning so that you may be prepared.”
The townspeople murmured for a few moments. “Fear monger!” cried one of the housewives. “You’re only trying to scare us! Are you hoping to sell us your ‘services’ for protection? We’re onto your scam!”
And as the mental mechanism of convenient denial was unleashed, the rest of the townspeople joined in the chorus. “Stop being negative!” screamed the local head of the merchant organization. “You’re scaring everyone and it’s bad for business! We don’t need your scare stories around here!”
“Doomsday prophet!” accused the banker. “Why do you threaten our town, our economy and our people with such scare stories that are obviously false?” “Blasphemy!” cried the priest. “Why do you abandon faith in God, He who protects us from all evil? For us to prepare, as you now insist, would mean we have lost faith in God!” The screaming then took on a life of its own as the townspeople let loose an uproar of insults and accusations against this bringer of bad news.
“QUIET!” shouted Sir Meliodas in response. The townspeople fell silent. “As you wish, I will depart this town and leave you in peace. But before I go, I must urge you to give these warnings all due consideration, for I assure you they are based in reality, not fiction. You must prepare now or face annihilation.”
He looked around the room then, making eye contact with each of the townspeople, saying, “I have journeyed for many moons and crossed many rivers and lands to bring you this news, and should you choose to ignore it, you do so at your own peril. You place your children and your livelihoods at great risk, and my heart breaks in knowing the pain and suffering you will endure if you fail to heed these urgent warnings. May God be with you,” he said at last as he strode out of the tavern and disappeared into the night.
The next day saw business as usual in the town. People were busy with their own lives, exchanging gossip, watching the local comedy theater or the jousting tournament. The sun shone brightly, money and goods exchanged hands, and children were laughing and playing in the streets. The rain blessed the crops and the townspeople became increasingly convinced that Sir Meliodas was out of his mind.
“I’m so glad he decided to leave,” said one seamstress to another. “He was bringing such a negative energy to this town and making everyone worried.” “So true,” responded her friend and coworker, who had just acquired an upgraded cotton spinning wheel called the iSpin. “We all need to stay positive, and focus on the bright side. That’s the key to happiness!”
All across town, the people convinced themselves Sir Meliodas was out of his mind. He was crazy, they said. “A conspiracy theorist,” most people agreed.
As the hatred toward Sir Meliodas grew, the Mayor publicly announced the banishment of Sir Meliodas from the town, urging all townspeople to immediately report him to the Guard Captain so that he could be arrested. “We cannot allow fearful conspiracy theories to terrorize our blessed town!” he declared to great applause. His popularity soared, and the people increasingly described him as a man of great wisdom and inspiration.
Then one day a dark shadow swept across the sun. A magnificent shriek echoed through the streets as the sound of huge wings flapping roared across the landscape. When the townspeople looked skyward, they saw the impossible: a gigantic red dragon streaking out of the sky, aiming right toward them, just as Sir Meliodas had warned.
As the church bell rang out a warning across the town, people flooded into the streets just in time to see the great red dragon unleash a fireball three times larger than his own body. It struck the center of town like an incendiary bomb and immediately engulfed the town in flames. Children ran in terror, many of them burning then dropping dead where they once played. Men shouted for their loved ones and the screams of women trapped in burning buildings filled the air. In mere seconds, the buildings began to collapse, engulfed in flamed and burning out from within.
Then the red dragon unleashed a second fireball, having completed a wide aerial turn that brought him on course with the town’s church. Though it was made of stone, many of its roofs were constructed of wood, and they immediately ignited. As the dragon passed directly over the church tower, it whipped the tower with its tail, demolishing the heavy structure and raining down stone shards on the townspeople below who cried in terror as they bled and died. In minutes the town was utterly destroyed, and fires raged for many hours. Only those who had been out in the fields were spared, as they were far away from the town center during the attack. They wept, and buried their dead, and that night they gathered in the moonlight at a nearby campsite protected by oak trees.
The consensus of the survivors was best expressed by the very first person who spoke; a farm laborer who had spent most of his life tending to cattle and sheep. “This is all the fault of Sir Meliodas for being too negative.” The other townspeople nodded their heads in agreement, assuring themselves that it was the bringer of bad news who was to blame for the terrible events that had unfolded.
“We shall rebuild,” announced one of the farm owners. “But this time, we’ll make it a crime for anyone to spread fear-based conspiracy theories, and we will thereby protect our town so that such devastation as we have experienced never happens again.” That man was immediately elected the new Mayor, and the town was re-named to “Happyville.”
They did, indeed, rebuild the town. The ashes of the dead were removed and buried. The buildings were meticulously rebuilt, and the church was eventually repaired and reopened. A new sign was erected over the entrance to the town’s main road, and it read, “Welcome to Happyville. Where happiness is mandatory.”

2Thess 2:10..because they received not THE LOVE (Agape)of the truth, that they might be saved. 11. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
123’s of true Christianity v popular & damnable heresies
#1 “ONE” not triune: ……PART 4 & 5 HOW MANY GODS ARE THERE FOR THE ONE GOD TO TALK TO?? Who was Jesus praying to??!?…. The real question should be … How does having multiple different persons keep this one God/being/entity from praying to himself?! (The trinitarian “schizophrenic” “god-head”) The Trinitarians want to have their cake and eat it too as the saying goes. On the one hand they need to say they only worship one indivisible God being/ entity but on the other hand they feel the need for some reason to keep Jesus or God from praying and talking to himself by dividing him up into different persons!?! It never occurs to them that that since there is only one indivisible God to pray too and Jesus is that indivisible God come in the flesh that he would need to talk to himself as to show us how to live, suffer, pray and die for our/ flesh) benefit not his!?!….. So while Trinitarians are quick to complain that God was not talking to himself at Christ baptism or in Gen “let us” they ignore the logical demands of their own theology! If Jesus is the ONE GOD in flesh and the Father is the SAME ONE GOD in heaven then Trinitarianism demands THE ONE GOD is talking to HIMSELF the same “being”! Claiming that God is multiple different persons as the reason for why God is not talking to himself (because God is three different “selfs”) only demonstrates that what they really worship is in fact not a ONE GOD who talks to himself but three different god “selfs”/ and they all talk to each other! When they speak about who God was talking and praying to, they are quick to say “the other person, NOT HIMSELF!” But if you ask them how many gods do they pray to then they will say “ONLY ONE”!?! They expect you to believe that those three different persons are THE ONE GOD-BEING” which is like calling three different cars “THE ONE VEHICLE” (they are text book examples of prov 26:12)
Mark 12:28…Which is the first commandment of all? 29. …Hear, O Israel; THE LORD OUR GOD IS ONE LORD: 30. And ………..this is the first commandment….. 31. And the second is….. IF YOU CAN’T GET THIS “FIRST OF ALL COMMANDMENTS” RIGHT, ALL THE REST OF YOUR “FAITH” AND PREACHING ON LOVE & SIN IS MOOT
PART 6: THE ANTI CHRIST….WHERE? WHERE?….EVERYWHERE!!! …..IT”S YOU O TRINITARIAN!
“WHO” it was (what person) that came “IN THE FLESH”, IS THE DETERMINING FACTOR IN WHAT IT MEANS TO BE “ANT-CHRIST”! Even Islam claims Jesus was the Jewish messiah/Christ who was to come in the flesh) they all deny “WHO” it was (what person) that came (to be the Christ) in the flesh!?!…….To deny the father is to deny the son because they are one and the same person that came in the flesh!
JOHN 14: 8-20 ….Note Isaiah 9:6. For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: …: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, … the everlasting Father ….The son, father/Holy Spirit are all the same person, NOT like two different persons working together even as “one flesh” ….The “oneness” between Christ and the father is not comparable to a man & his wife, for only a fool would say “When you have seen me you have seen my wife, how sayest thou then, Shew us your wife?” Notice they asked to see THE FATHER and the response was Jn 14:9 ..“HAVE I BEEN SO LONG time with you, and yet hast THOU NOT KNOW ME, Philip…..Now image some fool trying to claim that statement if you asked to see his wife!?!!? You want to see the FATHER but have I been with you but you don’t know me!?!?!
Jn 14 continued….…………..17. Even THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH; (Jn 14:6 I AM the way, THE TRUTH,) whom the world cannot receive, .. for HE DEWLLETH WITH YOU, (present tense/standing next to them in the flesh) and SHALL BE IN YOU… (future tense “In them”) 18. I will not leave you comfortless: I WILL COME TO YOU (future tense “In them”) Note: The spirit of Christ is the sprit of God and the holy spirit that is why Christ said “I will come to you” (to comfort them, because Christ is the comforter). The spirit was standing next to them in flesh… ….latter it would come to them to be inside of them (inside of their flesh as the spirit we are given)…..that is why. he would send the spirit…… However, Jesus himself here makes the point that the same person who was the HOLY SPIRIT that would come was standing next to them but lets them know “I will come to you again to be Inside of you”
The whole point to Gal 3:20.a mediator is NOT A MEDIATOR OF ONE, (HEIS) but GOD IS ONE. (HEIS) again, point blank, identifies the number of persons of God! The “but” points out the contrast between multiple persons in a mediation party v the “one” of God. God is not like a mediation party with multiple different persons. …..”the express image of his person” ( the person of God; singular not plural).Any attempt to lay claim otherwise is willful ignorance and delusional nonsense
TRINITARIANS CONFESS JESUS /THEY ARE NOT POLYTHEIST BUT ARE MONOTHEIST LIKE A LIAR & THIEF WHO “CONFESS” THEY DO NOT LIE OR STEAL The simple fact is that just because you confess or deny that you are in an adulterous relationship and denounce all forms of adultery has nothing to do with whether or not it is in fact adulterous! .. …A rose by any other name is still just a rose AND calling it a water lily does not change the definition of what a water Lilly or a rose is either!…No, Trinitarians confess & preach literally …”ANOTHER JESUS” 2 Cor 11:4
- Like a thief in your house caught stealing your things insisting he was not there stealing “I CONFESS I am NOT stealing”. You just do not “properly understand” what he is doing/saying. Further, since you never had a “proper understanding” of what he is doing/saying you have no business accusing him since you do not even know what you are talking about in the first place. It is with and in your own ignorance that you base your “false accusations” & “ad homonym attacks” against him…… Ridiculous of course it is ……2Thess 2:11; Titus 1:16; 2Tim 3:5;
…… should have given you a hint, harking back to Satan in The garden…God said you will die…Satan comes along and states no you will be more WISE……today .God said He is one; but Satan’s children come along and say no three is more WISE and humble in the face of God’s grandeur only “a mystery” that can be understood “in faith”. God uses head and right arm to explain the distinctions between father and son.. However, the Trinitarian heretics say to the effect: “NO, that is just a figure of speech, or that is not what God really means. What God is really saying is that God is three different persons”. Fools, hypocrites and blind guides, God said he was One and by your traditions and vain imaginations have taken the words of God and made them of no effect, refashioning God into your image!

#2 SECOND COMING Thou Fool! “I come quickly” so “Hold fast
till i come”… NOT …“in another 2000 yrs I might be coming soon any time now, so hold fast”!?! …those that deny the second coming of Christ in the war of AD70 are practicing a damnable heresy in denying the lord that bought them ( 2Peter 2:1-2 ;2Tim 4:8/ you cant love an appearing you deny& the context is the 2nd coming not the first)… Mat 7:23..”I NEVER KNEW YOU” …..Mat 10:33. But whosoever shall deny me before men……..sound familiar?…. If I said I am coming to your house in this generation when these things happen but no one knows the day or hour what fool would think I might be coming in 2000 years latter!?!? ..2 Tim 4: 4. And
they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be TURNED UNTO FABLES.
2Thess 2: 11. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12. That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

#3 There is a sharp contrast between THREE groups :
(1) “PREDESTINED DAMNED” who were NEVER written in the book of life ………..Rev 17: 8 WHOSE NAMES WERE NOT WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF LIFE FROM THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD, …as contrasted …EPH 1: 4. According as he hath CHOSEN US in him BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD
(2) “MANY CALLED”= ONLY and ALL SAINTS (those who come to Christ) are written in the book of life … Philippians 4:3… ……Rev 21:27; (Only saints are Called and elect; Rom 1:6-7 et al) This is THE CHRUCH and ONLY these can have their names blotted out of the book of life ….….Heb 12:23 to the general assembly and CHURCH of the firstborn … WHICH ………are WRITTEN in heaven,
(3) THE FEW CHOSEN: Those saints who were alive in group #2 who are now physically dead. They died “faithful” these are the FEW that were chosen faithful…….Rev 3:5. ……; and I
will not BLOT OUT HIS NAME OUT OF THE BOOK OF LIFE, (Ps 69:28) …. These are the FEW that are CHOSEN and now that they have died and are saved then “once saved THEY CAN NEVER BE LOST”
