When next you need to use these ordinary seeming words to someone make very sure, that you understand the awesome implications that accompany the persons to whom you are directing them. What I am saying is this...
Make sure you really mean it when you utter these profound two words, and are not just flinging these ominous words at the recipient as a force of habit because, if you do, they could easily return to you as a swift witness against you.
The words good bye were spoken as a direct derivative from early English when Christians would bid farewell by saying “God bless ye”, however due to great persecution for using the word “God” they shifted it to “Good” and “bless ye” was condensed to “bye”. Like it was the first text message short form. Ever heard of a “God’s eye”? It is a cross woven with yarn to appear as a beautiful piece of wall art. If we only knew the persecution faced by early Christians, we would honor them by standing firm in our own faith and use this word Good bye with its true meaning.
