In this episode TruthSeekah speaks with Joshua Fluman about his experiences in engaging the prophetic realms and experiences in spiritual warfare. There are many ways that we are able to tap into the spirit realm and do so even unintentionally in our own day to day lives. We talk about the the similarities in the prophetic giftings mentioned in the Bible and also what is known as psychic abilities or E.S.P. (Extra Sensory Perception). These experiences are written within the Bible but the phrasing and terminology is different. As we discuss during other episodes I believe that we are speaking about the same things yet from a different perspective and standpoint and have coined particular terms that seem to be privy to our own personal belief systems, dogmas and religions. I do not believe that any one religion holds all of the answers, even though I am a Christian, I know that what we call christianity today in the west is so far from its original state as a spiritual discipline that it’s not even funny. So, yes, I follow the teachings of Jesus and believe the gospel but many of the interpretations and understands that we have here in the west are no even close to the spirit or even nature of what was trying to be communicated by the writers of those texts. Christianity and spirituality in general should be an inward journey in growing in relationship with God and the divine that it overflows into every are of our lives. There is an importance in going back to study christianity in its original state especially when talking about engaging the prophetic because these gifting and abilities were a part of their daily lives from the prophets, apostles, disciples and even Jesus. These were in fact some of the most spiritual people that have ever walked the face of the planet and I believe that if they needed the prophetic giftings in their day then so do we. Jesus said that greater works shall his disciples do than him because of the infilling of the holy spirit. The very word for power in the scriptures that speaks about being endowed with power when the Holy SPirit comes upon you is the word Dunamis which literally means ‘miracle working power”. Jesus also goes on to say in Mark 16:17-18 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. This is our inheritance as sons and daughters of the most high God we will walk in miracles and see signs and wonders. A huge part of the signs in wonders is learning to hear God’s voice about what he would say to others and there are many ways to tap into hearing his voice inwardly. This is growing in the prophetic and trusting God enough that we are will to step out and reveal his heart towards other in a very practical way.

well so make sure you guys do that so Josh what do you get started with your spiritual awakening meaning Jesus that had come together what came first tell us a little bit about your story I would say I've probably been a disciple what I call it a second though an actual follower of Christ you know trying to be transformed or around me transformed by and about four years ago I was stuck in a religion in mind year for 20-25 27 years and so I'm still going through the process of unlearning all the stuff that I learned in religion and having the Lord reprogram my mind to the point where like okay this is okay this is not but this is okay because I'm using this specific his power in us the enemy's power and Slade Slade this reprogramming it's it's been a truck I think that's like when we're talking about awakening and this is probably universal but definitely coming out of the church realm there's a lot of unlearning that has to be done what you've told touch not taste not stay away from this as as if the Kingdom of Heaven was in metre drink right we we understand that best from the Scriptures that it's not but we're told these rules and regulations and then we're told once we do the studying that most of it's wrong like we've been told just the opinions of men and it's okay to have opinions I mean it's okay to kind of to say you don't know but we come from a place where it's absolutes and this is truth and this isn't and if you deviate you're in trouble so talk a little bit about that that unpacking process because there's gonna be a lot of Christians who litter listen to this and then there's gonna be people who are Chris have no idea what we're talking about but the process is similar so talk about like some of those ideas that you had to say okay because I know we're kind of generalizing like okay I can go into this not that this is what he's using but what are some of them specifically of things that you dogma you learned from the church that you had to kind of let the Lord we teach you on back a little bit so then kind of get a bit bigger picture um whatever I was I wanna say it was like 18 or 19 - my prophetic gifting really started to start started coming apparent to me because I know I don't even know how I just found out about it just started happening and I guy I was at church and I think it was doing I think was soon after like you ever heard of ATF your qualifier oh heck yeah yeah what's the guy's name I have no Ron Lou my mom Ron Luce that sounds right I think so well I think that was like 107 79 I actually had a I actually had a 30 second dish experience with the Lord at ATF that prevented me from going fully atheist so like skip for a little bit so I was like 19 and I was realizing that I had this gifting - since fierce no mind you I had no idea how I knew I just I felt things and no one was there so I just automatically assumed it was fierce no and Lafon you know going away when got the club Yatta Yatta silence illinois spirit for a few years and then skip forward a little bit and you know i just become a actual disciple and this was probably like March or April of 2014 and actually no it was probably like in November of 2013 after my divorce feels like right when that happened like my prophetic gifting just came on full full force like I knew new things were going to happen in a certain one that came to fun back into the phone for family and that continued to collect two years so that that was almost like me waking up is I had no prophetic training at all period so I was saying this thing's gonna happen and it happens or you know I didn't really say I was very generalized like I was I would tell my dad or my parents Oh something's gonna happen you know in this one to me but again I was still very self not really self-conscious obviously he's I'm very selfish I always thought it was me me me yes and I were during this process I was at my sister's birthday party it was September I was near the end of a month-long fast and I had always I had always wanted you know cried myself one to get my parents the first grandchild was I realized they know just went through a divorce that's probably not gonna happen I in my heart I loved I released her to be you know to want to give my parents their first grandchild right then the Lord said she's gonna get a pregnant out of town almost a year later she's having that child nope you know during that time you know there were there was a time where the Lord would say five months then the violence later she announced that she was pregnant and then like a little after that the woman says his six months and then at that six-month period he was he was being born and he was like things like five or six weeks young preemie everyone was freaking out that uh you know that uh he was a preemie and due to like a complication with her with her pregnancy yeah I'm just perfectly fine like he is gonna be okay my my uh my family's like how do you know that because the Lord will tell me if if no something went wrong that one home prophesied prayed and her seen in five 30 45 minutes that everything would go so the doctors and nurses would be amazed next morning birth goes smoothly doctors and nurses are amazed now they can that kind of continues as I as I grew and matured in the in no mind you I'm still very you know I'm still very low and on the maturity because I I have a I'm a mentor that's like six years my junior but he is a lot more mature than I am sewing I'm learning all these things and all this stuff all this stuff that's going on that I know about or all these different little areas of the Lord straining me on like how to you'll understand my dreams yeah I don't understand visions that I know that it gives me there or that I see and you had no no training nobody up until 2014 no okay you know 2014 I actually started going to a church that time it's the pastor is actually a world-renowned or actually he troubles around the world based really mainly not nationally renowned and the Lord kind of use that as my prophetic training a little bits or I'm actually at one because you know I have never grown so much in that three and a half years I was there for than the 27 years prior so it's all just like have keep showing me how to understand that all the different symbolisms of different things in my dreams and the innovations trying to not only say control but be able to see one it's my imagination it's going crazy because I'm just doing something versus that's something that the Lord's given me and this is what's going to happen or finding or seeing something that I think is accidental but wait a second that was a vision and then since yeah that's the tricky far right and we're not taught and and about being taught man I really think that's what the Scriptures speaking of when it says that the Spirit of the Prophet is subject unto the prophets like there's things that go on in your head oh that's just your imagination oh don't worry that's your imagination but I know that's that's your prophetic utterance that you're outfitting giftings you're seeing these visions and you're feeling these sensations in your body different things like that a pastor might not know what the hell you're talking about yeah it's gonna take a prophet someone who's been through that someone who has empathy for younger people we look in the scriptures in the Old Testament they had a school of the prophets where they would teach the prophets like this is what you do this is how it operates but now it's tricky because most of us are kind of left on our own to figure it out like there's so much weird we've talked about Dogma no no that's a broad statement dogma but there's so much of control and this is the way things are and if you're a threat to that you're out of here that type of stuff but when you're dealing with the prophetic man all bets are off it really are yeah there's things that work and there's things that help but somebody stuff is hard man it's all it's tricky it gets kind of squirrely especially when ever has to do with a fellowship that doesn't know anything about the prophetic or it doesn't even know and and you know and then no mind you I didn't have this happen to me but I've heard of different people finding out you know that you know they're either and prophetic that they they are called to hold the office of a prophet or hold the office of a seer and they're having all these things happen in the in the things they know and then the church he kicks them out or give them a hard time because he's like you're a psychic I see there's a difference there psychics use the wrong here's the wrong power the wrong energy and they don't use Jesus as the door versus you know seers prophets anyone who has that prophetic gifting actually I guess to the since probably would be a co-product is just prophetic people can only go so far versus you know the prophets and seers have it the full range but they gotta understand the church has to understand and it's it's slowly growing mind you I'm not trying to put the tradition but they have to understand that though the prophets and seers who were wanting and wanting to use if I heard that before the Lord they're using the horsepower everything in Jesus name but if know anyone who has been classified as a psychic they're you know they're using the you know it's basically there's Satan's power how else can you say you know in some groups I guess like ours can say that you know well I have a friend I've got I've got I've got a good friend Christie Lee she just started calling herself a psychic and that's and that's only by title of one uses the psyche - yeah you know I'm saying in in so if we are to classify even the gifts of the Holy Spirit within the Bible like you're probably gonna get more teaching from a clairvoyant psychic than you will from a local church that's that's the sad that's a sad thing for the the church realm yes but the way the Holy Spirit speaks there's not a lot of teaching on it biblically we can say that a lot of it is we get examples though we get examples of the still small voice we get examples of the feeling enough seeing and be able to smell and feelings in your body like that's clairaudience Clara sentience clairvoyant clear vision like this is something that's commonly known in the psychic world but when we start talking about this stuff in the church because it's because of the terms exact only thing the church is calling this is word of wisdom and of knowledge like it any there's other ways to interpret in ways to receive it so that's piques my interest to like hold on Jesus is talking about being clairvoyant or st. Claire audience we never earlier he knew exactly exactly 100% whatever I read like you know I don't know how many times I had I had gone over God with his verses but whenever I was there was a time I wasn't last year was a couple years ago where the Lord had me read over all four of the Gospels like Matthew made with me made me read it seven times before he graduated me to mark and whenever I'm still I stay in Matthew bro wait a second mark Luke go back to the same he's noting their thoughts in today's church again oh you know my thoughts your psychic you're out I'm prophetic the words giving me the stuff yeah yep and you see where it was needed and and I actually have a some scriptures that I actually mapped out in Matthew in that same chapter which I think it's chapter nine I want to say I went over these notes the other day I think so I've got two written down but um he talks about and it was the Lord had me go back and read Matthew and show the importance of spiritual gifts and while we need them and write down the examples and I came to that instance or whatever and it showed the the word of knowledge that came forth and then it went on to show that a miracle came forth and then he was able to win them over through the signs and wonders and then they all began to glorify God when healing and awarded knowledge came forth and stuff and this was like something that he used and then we see it you don't say I'm being used more times in the scriptures as well and it shows you the need for it and and the need is because obviously there's people of all faiths and all walks of life who listen to this show but when we're talking about the church dealing with the spiritual giftings and psychic abilities and things like that yeah because people are having these encounters people like yourself in church and me and many others the church doesn't really have an answer form they tell them it's demonic they demonize it and then so guess who has a an answer form the New Agers oh yeah let us yeah that's clairvoyance let me show you how to operate in that mmm this is the church's role that's why we have to we have to we have we have to kind of stand up man the spirit of the Prophet is subject to the Prophet and we can't hold the pastor liable they have no idea like I say what we're talking about they've never experienced that stuff they don't even know this stuff yeah that's why it's demonic because they think it's what's repackaged in this Christian cookie-cutter way some of the visions and dreams we get would seem demonic they're scary when nightmares there's people being ripped apart there's earthquakes and famines and snakes and alligators and all the symbolism then prophets get in their dreams man yeah they don't know what we're talking about and then here we are you know trying to make sense of things but that's why there are churches out there Bethel Church is a big one and there are a lot of churches now that embrace the prophetic and teach teach younger people so we can say that none of them but they've there definitely is a lot out there but its dominance it's as few and far between it's not you can't just go to any church and say hey I had a dream last night that this happened to the church and I feel like it's a sign from God they'll rebuke you and send you packing I've had it happen yeah definitely ouch yeah I know like you know the Lord blessed me by sending me to the church I was up for three and a half years and it's better than because I know whenever I was nineteen twenty and two coming up with a realization that I had this gifting and I went to psychics because I didn't I was not aware anyone in my trusted circle the time that had the gifting that could help me so of course you know I did the only thing that I knew how to you wasn't the greatest idea but whatever you know it got me to work eventually got me to where I needed to be so now all you know on functioning correctly and you know yeah I just wish that there was more avenues for those who do have the gifting and it's getting out there just sometimes it kind of it it sends me that it's not as much as it should be but no that's the kind of that's the main idea of my channel is it people broken from religion can't think of you can't think of everything that's that you know that happens these days oh my gosh this demonic look at you do you know your father okay they look at what he know look at what's saying yeah think the event that happened does it look like a characteristic of him no it doesn't mm-hmm [Â __Â ] it again pray to him mostly I I've noticed that a lot of times when they're not sure of something they they say that they say they pray and they really haven't and it's it's laziness but you know you still got a loving and kind of just kind of push them and teach them the correct way yeah it's it's sucks because like a lot of times there's a threat there you like you actually become a threat to their structure so you know you have I'll say this all the time you now have what they used to have like they had that fire God used to speak through them now they just kind of going through the motions they know how to play Church they know how to move a crowd they know how to give a good message or whatever right you you learn how to do these things and so when when a young person comes and they have the fire of God and God's really using them when they pray things happen when they speak to spirits they leave you know what I'm saying and so people in the congregation naturally will kind of gravitate towards that person and the pastor the Deacons they're envious of that I'm telling you man it gets it gets it gets crazy I've seen it happen with me I'm saying not just me but I've seen it I've seen it with other people too and you become a threat because now we're not looking to the pastor we're looking to brother so-and-so in the congregation and and then they have ways of stopping that and it's usually ghosting or pulling you to the side or asking you not to pray for people anymore like all kinds of stuff you know yeah some people don't pick up after that yeah they stay wounded yeah Wow I actually not pretty sure I know that once that happens and that that creates a bad what's that word looking for bad wound hmm towards the church and you know that's probably why a lot of people doing go to church period regardless you know regardless of what kind of gifting them they there is a wound and they just automatically think that that's what the church is all about and they don't want to go back but and that's what's again that's neat learning it's really difficult as finding that church that's the fellowship that we're supposed to be with and but also remember at the same time is we're human we make mistakes and you know this word forgiveness comes in but that's that's it's yeah you got to show the same grace that was shown to you man you know in those situations and uh you know it's all it's all a learning process people who people so it's about learning from that stuff and moving on as quick as you can and not trying to operate out of hurt or out of I mean you learn you have to guard your heart you learn to guard your heart that's good you learn not to just trust any spirit or any person because they can present it better or they have followers or they have you know in anything like I've seen it man even just on like the Yum center the Facebook and YouTube gurus and stuff who have their own following and like I've seen those people show their bad side you know and but at the end of the day we're all human we're only human and it's part it's part of learning and growing so so when so you said this was 2014 when you started kind of taking it to the next level with it with the psychic abilities or if you even want to call it I don't care myself transcend of it I don't care it's also under I I go back and forth between the warnings I pairs are you talking to really well that and also it's like you know I can call it you know or fed a gifting I can call it psychic and it's like giftings or whatever but sometimes I do it just to kind of mess with the the religious spirit mm-hmm it's like you know you're talking to someone and you say psychic ability or you say empath ability and they automatically you know just kind of where the the religious Pharaoh my career's it's on its head and you kind of say nothing of it this way this this this this you're like oh yeah it's about 2014 that's whatever was like March or April 2014 whenever I had the the shackles of religion broken off my because I love friend Aaron he pulled me in and I got me into the job I am and now and you knew that was a metalhead so you know either why don't you check out this band I was they've ever heard of a head from corn yeah sorry I started listening to his music dive religion guy yeah loves his music even like you know and I started listening then I looked up his his testimony and that's what did it for me he is not a listen to his judgment like this is awesome and then it clicked with me you didn't go to the make him remove his tattoos his piercings or is makeup yeah so why would Lord make me do that and at that point it just clicked for me I'm like I can be your way ever yeah I can be Who I am and how the war it made me I'm like I can get another tattoo for one hanging three engagement my piercings if I want I can grow my hair round from one and wear makeup for once he is untied in the Lord's name and for him was like you know I screw this about it yes that was that point everything just exploded for me I know like I had my during what's that during the previous year I was going through a lot of depression or whatnot you know during the year of what I called the year of hell whenever I was going through my divorce and I was I had no these symptoms of bipolar disorder I was never classified with the thank God but I had my last little episode in in early 2014 and then about six months later and I think it was either September or October don't remember exactly was when I once but I was crawling down the hallway of my apartment and the this extreme heaviness of depression was upon I just got pissed off somehow screen Jesus so loud that surprised my neighbor didn't hear me all right wouldn't happen instantly all the depression left I haven't dealt with since and so like at that point okay so this I can now combat depression and do this and do that in at the same time you know all my dreams are coming full throttle you know it was 2015 I had a season during during the summer where I was having three or four dreams at night I must say though that other than you know like knowing when things aren't going to happen visions and and dreams there are some giftings that we have that I didn't really get to experience until like later on so it's but it was it was a trip but I I'm still learning bro yeah exactly mine started it man mine started what maybe 2003 you know in the church realm anyway it started way before that when I was into dark witchcraft and stuff like that get it getting into that but as far as the prophetic opening up in the in the church learning it was 2003 and I'm still learning I would be allowed further if if we would have those mentors and I had some mentors but for the most part they were learning you know and all they could show me was what they've been shown and a lot of it was kind of new for them too but we had we had we had a school of the Spirit here and this kind of reminiscent of what we're trying to do with the school of mystics right yeah we had a school of the Spirit in every every Friday night they would have prophets come in town from like you know saying Mike Bickle all the other big-name prophets who travel the Prophet circuit I guess you want to say that a people who's on the Elisha list and stuff like that and they'd come down every Friday night and you get words but it but then it eventually got into like you were you wanted somebody to prophesy over you every time you went to work and now you're just like what just go what does God have for me and like pray for me and you know you start chasing this stuff or whatever even though it's beautiful this is awesome especially when it's new to you but it's like you got to start doing something with the information that you're getting yeah you got to start putting it to use if you don't it's gonna become stagnant and you're not gonna grow and actually getting able to get to the next level you're not you have to the information that comes through you have to step out in faith you have to release it you have to intercede over it I mean whatever role that you're called to be in you have you have to actually step out in faith yeah the the image and or like warning I got as you're saying that was like we have to get out of the arms of our Father and you know being being carried and started walking mm-hmm we have to start walking on ourselves rather than having everything being given to us yep exactly man dude I'm gonna tell you what I keep trying to find this episode but I was I was home one one day sick and this was probably two dollars probably that same time and 2004 2003 I was home from work sick and I stayed home and I'm just flipping through television and I watch I was watching Sesame Street I just happen to stop and I felt like it was God he's like hey watch this for me and I got to show you something at home by myself a grown grown man watching Sesame Street and in this particular episode was uh what the segment was called baby bear learns to skate and uh and and I'm watching it and the Lord speaks to me and says okay your baby bear I'm Papa Oh God okay put on this your skates I don't know how to put them on can you help me sure I'll help you he picks him up puts the skates on them he's like okay we're gonna learn to skate is I know I'm afraid I'm afraid to skate I'm gonna fall down I'm gonna hurt myself oh if you fall down you'll be okay if you fall I'll catch you and it's like everything that this character on the show okay Papa Bear was telling baby bear God was speaking in my opening me up and speaking in my spirit I'm sitting here watching Sesame Street by myself at home ball and tear shaking holy glory all over me I'm like what is happening right now and like from start to finish he's just like reassuring them I'm scared papa I'm a father I said look I'm gonna teach you I'm gonna hold your hand but eventually you're gonna soar you're gonna go out there by yourself and you're gonna be able to skate all you want and you're gonna be able to do it without me because I taught you and I was like oh my god I'm getting chill start thinking about it now was so prophetic man and it was like the beauty that God uses whatever he wants to talk to us we'll listen he'll speak through any circumstance any situation in any any person man that's that's the beauty of this this dance that we're in with God is that he uses everything so then the psychic stuff doesn't look that scary anymore though you know I'm able co-host the psychic talk show I'll run I'll run the boards and everything on Kristy Lee show but she lets me come in and I'll give prophetic words to these people and I pray over them and yeah Jesus name they start crying healed I'm on a psychic show man you don't and it's about friends and transcending the labels or Xavier that oh my god people are gonna see me on a psychic show and and they're gonna not follow me anymore or whatever the case is but it's like we have to be strategic we have to be wise a serpent's man harmless as doves to kind of be able to move into these realms around because people are dying and they're not going to church man church attendance is down so much and the church thing is like at this point us four and no more like we have our club and if you don't do this you're not in it you have to feel like I put on a monkey suit and go be somebody I I have to be a hypocrite most of times to go to church like because I have the word hypocrite is playing multiple roles in a in a play and uh and I feel like I have to put on a mask to go there and if I wish to be like hey I'm what do you do I do this I do that I do a podcast you know you talk about aliens yeah you talk about psychedelics yeah you can't do that hey brother please God hey man look God's good I want to tell you he's doing a work in my life you have to like put on plate put on this roll and uh and and that's that's not of God at all you trying to be somebody else when you are fearfully and wonderfully created he put those things in you for a reason you're into tattoos you're into art and creativity and and and makeup and things like that for a reason you know what I'm saying but you we have to find out who we are man and and once but that's the desta key because once we find out who we are then nobody can tell us who we are because we already know and somebody tries to call you outside of your name or call you outside of your character you won't respond to that because that's not who you are or it shall by no means harm you the words that they say about you that's why we talk about reading the Bible and in the scripture getting into the scriptures because it's a mirror we're able to spend time with the father as we're reading the scriptures and we're gazing into a mirror of who we truly are I've heard all types of stuff about Who I am okay father let me see who you say I am oh you this your dad you're the apple of my eye yeah I would leave the ninety nine to come after you I'm pursuing you I have I'm pursuing you with a reckless furious love and then like it's the real deal he is he loves me but it's so easy to start believing the naysayers and oh yeah yeah you know you had a successful ministry years ago but God stopped using you the anointing left I mean we look at people and I'm I'm gonna I'm an example obviously but we look at people who've gone before us even like Jason Upton one of the most beautiful prophetic worship leaders out there he went through a season where he started writing songs about him and his son his relationship and he wrote a fun song about him and his his son wrote a song about their dog okay and any sung it in Indian the blogs and the church folks a religious spirit they say he lost his anointing and God's not with him anymore now he's singing about the dogs and hanging out the window and having fun and it's like this is so weird man like you got you have to know who you are cuz if you don't you'll be able to be moved about who they say you are by the opinions of men and that's that's what it actually building upon this foundation man which is Christ you know like right after I came out of the clubbing scene I would I know I thought that that Gothic think you know side of me was was completely sinful so I I started changing myself to how everyone thought I was supposed to be and you know I still had my period and I still wanted to choose but then whatever started dating I'm starting my ex you know I I just full-on completely change myself to the planet Eire note the remove the piercings and I like no more tattoos and that started killing me inside literally he like over think I don't know how long but by the time and by the time that relationship was over I had realized that I was dead inside no no not just spiritually he's not stuck in religion but also soulish like that's that makes sense like by my inner self which is completely dead as I am there was supposed to be like and like for example at you it was a one through period about four or five months after after the divorce in October of 2013 that I church taught for a long but just you know just gonna find my place and I started going to this one church and my parents had suggested me trying and I know it was it was okay it was it was alright and one thing was one Wednesday went there you know I had my spiked bracelet on anything I had makeup on I don't remember my Gothic boots on you know just like I was goth down yeah and I forget what the preacher was talking about oh yeah he was talking about non biblical statistics which was great you know there's a lot of the churches and know that and at the end he was like I feel like someone's wanting to come back from the occult I want to give the time I when he give the opportunity for someone to do this is like all sweet yes excellent watch.watch nothing on people need done people who don't come out yeah so you know he went to the back of the church you know as you create or do as he granted everyone whatever they're leaving I came out to him like I want to you forgiving those statistics because not everyone knows that he looked at me don't pound it man I used to hate that going up to the UH to the altar for prayer you know and then they're trying to lead you to Christ eight years vote like what still you know what I'm saying that's so funny man I tell you this so I got a story for you okay if anybody wants to call in and join the discussion you guys can do that too I have shared this a couple times but I think it's fitting my brother-in-law back when he was in high school he went to he was in the demon hunter he had the demon hunter t-shirts and all that stuff right and and their symbol is a it's supposed to be a demon head skull with a bullet in the forehead right I've actually got demon hunter tattooed on me for those watching this is a Kinzie Oriental demon hunter they're watching a video but he went to this church it was a backwoods church in backwoods Alabama Tim revival or something and he goes there with another friend who listens to that kind of stuff and he visited visited with a friend and they they called him out they said hey son uh how do you have the audacity to wear that shirt wear that shirt in church that shirt with that with that demon skull on it you should be ashamed you should know better power God's here you know and he said no this is a Christian band he said I don't know you've been lied to young man that's not a Christian band you've been lied to us demonic and you shouldn't wear it in the house of God they made him take his shirt off in the congregation he had to take his shirt off and then they prayed for him and they kept they tried to cast demons out of him they were holding him down to the floor pouring anointing oil in his mouth they're praying in the Holy Ghost they're shaken they're Jesus they're going through the motions the religious people like some people could do that religiously like this they just do it it's their song and dance right they do it in a upon anointing all in his mouth casting demons out of them and and and he's just like hey no I'm a Christian like no you're not it's insane and this dis dude is still a Christian to this day he still faithfully goes to church and everything man but it's crazy how weird stuff like that happens man in these in these churches man and uh it's insane somebody in the chatroom hit dog dogs whiskers he said lmao pouring the anointing all in his mouth WTF kind of s is that yeah dude we've seen some weird stuff in these churches and in the prophetic realms man and then some people use it for for manipulation yeah you know they they use did they know how to do that to shake you out of your last dime you know they it's it's crazy man it just crazy that the stuff that we've seen in the church is out or not of God and I can't go there and sit sit quietly anymore like I couldn't do that I couldn't go there and watch it now and be okay with it I have to say something like I've done that I've what I've protested outside of churches like I've been through many different phases man I was and and and I've been a rebel of those who preach stuff contrary to the truths and I've done all that stuff right I've tried those who claim to be apostles and or not but are false the prophets like the revelations you know I'm saying I've done that and uh it gets it gets so weird man it comes down to simplicity though bro you know it comes down to just the work that God has done in your heart through Christ man and and that should be available for for for anybody who you're dealing with regardless of religion or regardless of race or creed and so with you being obedient to the Holy Spirit he could send you places that nobody is gonna is gonna reach that nobody that you've got you're gonna be able to win people to his glory that would never stop a foot inside a church I mean look at something as as I'm hosting this podcast from my bedroom and I've been doing it for a long time you know and it's finally getting wheels behind it you know it at first like it was it was a stumbling block for me you know what I'm saying because I would I would come here and we would do these podcasts and talk about this up and then they would talk about it at church without me like hey you know true city was talking about aliens and talking about this and talking about that and uh and so I didn't I didn't know who I was so when they would talk like I would believe them well I wanted to be accepted so bad that I was willing to act like I don't like aliens I'm not into that no more and it all Jesus brother all God brother and I would do that like I would throw away my books manly pee haul books I'm a I really love manly halls workout with those books away or anything that wasn't Christian I get rid of it and I try to present myself back to the church people to be accepted and they would have me back but then they would still kind of look at me sideways stuff but like you were saying you felt like your spirit was dead like oh like man they're saying Who I am I'm like I'm into this stuff for a reason like God has put these these feelings within me for a reason and me I feel like I'm running from my calling and I feel like I'm running from God doing that and that was what even early on with the way I look my appearance my address you know I went to the the clean cut you know I'm saying hairdo and and no tattoos and like you tell my Brian Head Welch was a huge stepping stone for you to embrace who you were and seeing him doing it so well it was it come down there for me it was like it was like a fork in the road okay do you do the things that make you happy that God that you feel that you're called to you like these things for a reason or do you listen squit listening to the metal quit listening to the rap listen to nothing but worship music and try to be one of the beautiful people essentially right and yeah you have to find out who you are man and that takes years for a lot of people you know and you have to watch you find out who you are then you have to get to a place where you're comfortable yeah being the person that God called you to be you know I go couple weeks a month straight listening to only worship music and that's not something that I try really and then there are times whenever I go a month straight when I just listened to a lot of different metals and but I stole throw on you know the worship music just because you know I'm solid Jesus there's a time a lot for all of the man time it's a time for war a time for warfare like there's times for all of them were in different moods and I'm the same way bro I listen to I listen to a lot of heavy stuff I listen to a lot of 90s alternative music honestly right now which is for a long time it just brings me back to easier the simpler time and yeah I just really love the music I grew up on I listen to a lot of that but um yeah I listen I'm with you man any go from anything hard scream of the stuff you can barely understand to the most beautiful psalmist tree worship music imaginable memory I just saw a little bit ago about a way that he broke a fear of mine is I had I had a fear of aliens for 25 years maybe longer yeah and the way that started is actually interesting whenever I was 6 for like 25 years I had thought that I had that I had nightmares but it wasn't until about 2 years ago before right now right before the Lord started me had started me to study demonology you know I'm like you know what I'm gonna get rid of I'm gonna start working on my fears to get over them and the first one that came to mind was that what the fear of aliens it's like you know Lord show me I prayed for 2 months Lord show me the nightmares after about 2 months straight of this it hit my spirit one night what if those weren't lanes and and in my spirit what if I was seeing demons what happened whatever I was six is my parents put up a poster of the et in my room yeah got nothing of a you know most people went but something about that poster I saw demons for a while and that scared the crap yeah and no they took it down and and the vision stopped but no for 25 years anything that and do it but aliens I load put the passion I took point I seriously jokingly would tell my friends if you ever walk into my house dressed as an alien you will be shot at that's like that's how string the eighth record itself I think it was no spell last Shirish I I'm like you know what I need to get back I need to get over this fear of aliens and so went straight to the source [Laughter] the movie II team yeah so I sat down I'm like Lord I can't believe I'm actually doing this I need you to give me strength so I watched the entire movie and like mind you there are some points in the movie I'm like this on my bed I'm like especially I'm so mean I remember just to give you an example where me my extra still together we went to I think it was universe or something like that yeah there has arrived and you talked me into going on that right thinking that that there would only be like one or two we go through the freaking ride and there are ETS at every single curl I'm like this I'm like this on my legs just watching like like I just I wanted to see demolished and we get how the of the other ride and she's like I am so sorry watch them early and now since then I can walk there you watch my new video which one did you watch my new video I put out yesterday alpha No go watch it yeah make sure you have some lights on there it's an alien walk down the hallway with it being pitch black and what no fear yeah I watched I actually bought the alien series all four of them yeah watched watched all those I'm like nothing it's like it's like yes thank you Lord for removing that fear but it's it's so weird that no that no that happens and it's having any form I feel like they're just not godly and I love how he works to get those fears out of my since awesome I have to watch that he's not actually and we're waiting to see that because I don't like spoilers I like to listen to an entire album all at once and don't like I want to watch that yeah yeah I had to go through some stuff similar to that as well when I was having all my UFO experiences or whatever you know I would see I would see lights come coming close down above my house man and it would freak me out you know and I have my I have my daughter with me and stuff and it would it would literally freak me out so because of watching those those movies hold on one second I got to start this chat hold on it's gonna make a noise cool some problems with the phone okay we got we got the phone lines back up my phone reset but yeah like I would see like fire in the sky you know there was another another show what was that communion was a big one and with our Whitley Schreiber that was don't look it up don't look it up but I took some of those scenes and kind of reworked them into that new video so definitely check it out but no I've had I had some instances like that that were pretty pretty crazy that I had to get over that fear yeah I'm pretty sure like in the back of your mind like even though you want it to you want it something to happen you want to make contact but it's like yeah Oh Lord I'm fitting to be taken away and never be brought back you know like that was a legit fear yeah I'm pretty sure like getting over that fear was like one stuff of singing stand seeing into that the spiritual realm because you know whatever I mentioned that that thing on Thursday I'm pretty sure that was like the first demon I've seen probably since I was six I don't I don't even remember that yeah the fact I over this thing crawling like that just see them any anything else that I've seen what you know it's it's always been like this but but they call shadow people always in the corner right yeah somebody without asking about that Adam was asking about that yeah those are the only times I've actually kind of caught something you see something in the corner I you move and you turn to look and there's nothing there yeah but see that thing there that Thursday I'm like with the current yeah that was but I I'm pretty sure that was just like a stepping stone of getting there but all of this time again I'm I'm not in any rush is I know of people that see in that realm 24/7 they say and get overwhelming yeah oh yeah job you mad if you don't know how to I mean just think we talking about having someone to talk to oh wow I'm reading some of these comments while I'm trying to hold the conversation and uh Carolyn says that she had I'm so scared of communion I had to hide the awful fake truth because I was scared of it you know what and I don't I'm the last person to push a fear of aliens like I'm for the one let's make peaceful contact you know what I'm saying so it's it's funny that I did one that was more on kind of based off of a horror spin on it but it's interesting I wouldn't do a podcast I mention this earlier I'm gonna do a full podcast where I go into detail about that video because like some of those scenes that's in that video I pulled out of the dream state like when I was when I was uh yeah there's a scene in there with my daughter and it was a nightmare scared scared the hell out of me but I uh I had to had a nightmare of that years ago when I first got into ufology and stuff and uh but I turn around and put it in the video man make something creative out of it something beautiful out of it you know what I'm saying something something cool I say it's beautiful way anyway makes you like look at look at revelations yeah you interviewed I think several months ago where he says as Hugh believes that's his the one the Lords favorite genres is for just because of the imagery that's in like Daniel or normally be a good doll but your job is yes no that was good yeah no doubt I'm going to jump to the phone lines here we got a couple people on the line I think this is a brother Reggie calling from Georgia you there Reggie on screen are you there Reggie Georgia can you hear me now guy Erica yo welcome to the show man what you doing doing great man we're talking about you know these crazy experiences and church people having it all figured out and things like that and there's some we have a mutual inside joke and every time I talk to you I go into the voice of this guy we're talking talk a little bit about the apostle because dude I use him in a lot of scenarios of how far and how seriously you can take this religious experience and and go far out there that's pretty far out there when we talk about the apostle talk about this guy that uh that you met and I ran into him somehow I really forget the full story but the interactions we had this with this guy was talk a little bit about that that guy yeah it's a fun story it was almost ten years ago it was actually what was it about two thousand nine so nine years ago yeah I had moved from Mobile Alabama where I met Derek and we met via myspace back before Facebook was a thing and we had hooked up a few times and you know and then I moved to Mississippi and I actually became part of a church there by somehow so this is kind of how it went down a guy that I knew I wouldn't say I was mentoring him but he was like you could say he was like a younger spiritual brother if you will and he was like kind of bumping up to me you know and stuff like that so when I moved out of town he called me it said hey man I ran into this guy and he says he's like he's apostle he's an apostle of Jesus Christ and so he started telling me how this guy came to town and he lives off the land he basically took a vow of poverty and it's just some of his family and his I don't 8 kids or having kids yes and in basic basically he he said that the guy was from Meridian Mississippi where I had moved to and that he had come down there I guess and to pop like I don't know pop I don't know if he was looking for conference or whatever I guess it's what people like that are always doing yeah but um he came down there and he somehow met this particular guy that called me I won't name names but he said that he somehow met him and was talking to him is that hey man I want to disciple you we under you rather I want to learn from you and this this guy who called himself an apostle said okay well that's fine that's great but you need to go sell everything you have and give your money to the poor and come follow me it was basically what he said to him and and I was like oh wow dude that sounds like I mean I was like that's cool that kind of sounds like Jesus or whatever but you know I don't he said yeah you know in the you know you remember when the Apostle started the first Church you know everybody all the members of the church were selling all their belongings and bringing the money and laying it down at the Apostles feet and I can't remember 100% if he it if he had told my friend to go sell his money to go so it everything he had to bring him the money or if he said go give your money to the poor I can't remember but it wouldn't surprise me either way but um but again it's nine years ago and he said you know I really he said I don't know man he said I really wish I had somebody I kind of asked him a few questions and he's like it he said I wish I had to make a talk to him but I took him to my pastor I'm a pastor ran from it what and he won't talk to him and he said any II said I feel like I'm a sheep this just couldn't he kind of left left out to whatever rather he's a wolf or not I don't know but he said it really it really is like dang dude you know you're my pastor you supposed to be my shepherd and you just kind of left me hanging out here and I I mean he even brought him to the church and everything like that and that didn't go over too well obviously but so I said well give me his number I'll call him so anyway so I touch base with him and again he claimed long the long story I guess I can condense it down a little bit of bridge version but he basically said he is he was at the video piloting it floating him not just being a posse apostle right right he quite and he was quoting scripture from Jeremiah I think where he said all the Shepherd's have gone astray and they've all lost their way and he you know he's my kid oh yeah he's like an any-any he kept referring to that he can't refer to the fact that he's read the Bible 168 times I can't remember how much and and I'm like oh okay that's that's nice but so I kind of struck up a conversation with the night I really and I'll be honest with you I'm kind of naive to my hurt sometimes and I was really empathizing with him you know and saying look man I understand because I was at a place where Derek you knew me back then I was like ready to just sell it all and you know and just go follow after Jesus you know and and it was like um I kind of I kind of I don't know like I saw him doing that I'm like man that's the kind of passion I feel you know that's the kind of deal I want so I started talking to him and sharing some stuff with him and I was and I was kind of interesting entering into a different phase of my walk and kind of going in the direction of like you know Messianic Judaism at that time and not so much Christianity but that was the long that's a long story there but I started he kind of basically related to me where I was but then it was weird man because he was trying to tell me that that God led me to him right but then whenever I would start telling him okay well God spoke to me and told me this and God spoke to me and told me that and God this share my testimony with him and he said well he said you know I don't I hate the busted verbal of your bubble but you think you're hearing from God but you're not and I'm so he basically made it out like nobody's hearing from God but him but then he's gonna tell us so that was like okay so the brother if I'm not here from God and how do I know God led me here you know so that's kind of like a you know it really contradicts itself so where you came into play brother truth is I think we got on the phone I'll [Â __Â ] yell fight and I've been plugging it's weird dude and in a reason I would be telling you about is because man you were like hooking me up on three way calls with all kinds of people from all over the place and I was meeting some interesting characters you know for you and so I was like I was like dude I was like dude let me do it ever talk to this guy he says he's awful he's like I think he's kind of out of his mind man a little bit I mean I I I don't know like I don't want to I don't want to say that but I was feeling that and I was showing why he just something wasn't right about the guy so then you were like well give me his number I'll call him hey hit there from there and it worked from there but that's where I think you kind of hopped in man but yeah it ended up obvious for your story takes off from there but I could say that my story ended one never all right so he came back to Meridian and they had their little church or whatever I don't know it maybe consisted of Gelinas family and maybe one or two other beautiful who stoled all their possessions and followed him but uh he he was like he called me or texted me or something was like hey come join us for fellowship because I was talking to him you know on a regular basis and I think he was trying to like you know kind of if you will convert me to whatever he is and and and I thought I went to my church right and he was texting me while I was sitting there in church and I saw texting back I said well I'm actually at my church and he's like oh you found another fellowship of truth will tell us where it is and we'll come there yeah enough to pay off and and stuff because his family his kids he made the news cuz yeah family got sick and he wouldn't take him to the hospital because he didn't want them shooting him up with scenes and stuff and they his kids were dying and stuff and yeah it was pretty yeah hey I had talked to just I had talked to several people that know my actually had people that found out that I was talking to him calling me though I don't know if my friend back in Mobile was given my number out or whatever but as he smiling well I mean if I came what did you feel yeah it's like what did you feel for me man I felt like he was possessed by a devil and all this and I'm like I was like well yeah and then I started hearing stories and stuff and the this the kind of chaos and stuff that followed him yeah and I was like you're not coming here man so then he started calling me and blowing up my phone and texted me and they left me like 18 voice messages back to back I'm getting creepy to be like you would come on three way because that's why I do too I do the the impersonation you say brother reg it's me yeah muscle give me a call if you want to know what God's saying if you just like back to back brother Ed's I'm calling again yeah yeah I told me to call you you know it's like what you think you're testing us but you're the one being tested yeah you know if you decide to repent we'll take you back there you're a reprobate and I'm like I'm just really dude I just let him go but I think I think maybe you had a few conversations with him but on you like he lives out there in the woods you know and any travels on foot little family and few disciples that he has and that just shows you how seriously you can take yourself and I've gotten out there honed some religious stuff you know wanting to be separate and wanting to give everything to follow Jesus like it was in the Bible right I mean you know we look at the Bible where I look at Western Isles Christianity and what I hold on something doesn't add up but we had the super neck it's supernatural encounter with God through the person of Jesus Christ and we know that to be truth and so that just sets us on this truth-seeking journey from that point on and you're open to a lot of stuff because you know you kind of throw off one bondage which is the world and and end those things whatever that consists of for you when you was in the world you give that up for Jesus but then you receive another bondage which is the bondage of religio which means to bind or hold back which is the Latin word for religion you know I'm saying that to bind you and and stuff so that's all I'm right there with you I'm right there with you brother I I did the exact same thing and I've done it and and now maybe not to the extreme of this apostle but I mean I felt it in me and I've done it and and I think it's just ego man somebody I saw one there was somebody else Reggie that uh that we were mutual friends and we ran into him I think I invited you to a Bible study that he led maybe he had a song called ha ha ah yes yes yes I remember that yeah I know yeah yeah the king the King James the only guy yeah yeah yeah yeah what was his name again gene brother gene oh yeah what Jean Duffey yeah whatever happened to helmet still goes yeah he's still doing that uh yep they go and they do street ministry and street preaching and stuff but um yeah that that guy he's in he's another one who just gets way out there and uh you know he's an older gentleman now and and it's his duty and I always mess with my wife joking but it's a fear in the back of my mind that one day I'm gonna end up like one of these guys you know what I'm saying yeah like a brother just like you know at the end of your life the final years that you have you're like you have to make it up to God so he goes to Walmart and preaches wood on a loudspeaker he goes downtown to preach and he goes anywhere he can to preach and it's almost like this duty that he owes like a debt he owes to God or something like because we see him all the time you know I missing my wife I say yeah that's gonna be me I know I shouldn't be but I jokingly but uh but I see it's sad to me it's sad to me though that day that they owe that to God to go out there and do that and uh but because this guy will go out there with nobody listening I mean it gets gets weird like it's the weird delusional that you go out to a field with nobody reading to you and start preaching on a loudspeaker like if you're gonna do it go to where the people are you know I'm saying like a universal universe is so much bigger than us man it's like you can't you can't isolate yourself like that and develop your whole worldview based on yeah boy you know wait well you have what do you have the draw from other than ego you know it'd just be kind of I don't know you paint yourself into a very small corner of the universe that way mm-hmm yeah so many people do it in eight ceiling man nobody understands me that's a lie you know what I'm saying like I'm the only one who's going to do it you don't know what I'm going through no that's that's definitely a lie there's no way possible that you're the only one who's ever experienced that I mean just look at this type of platform we have here on this podcast now that people are it's a beacon like the who have similar stories they're kind of drawn to this show man who have been to those churches in the backwoods you know who had those weird religious encounters where they those reasons they should give up or whatever but then they find out that they're not alone you know what I'm saying but with you if you if you isolate yourself it's easy to kind of get into that pity party nobody understands me and nobody believes in my calling or whatever the case is but then you got to you got to put yourself around like-minded people people who have you don't send a vision who's similar to you not what otherwise competing and man there's all kind of stuff like that going on and he's these churches man mm-hmm hey you right you right on there brother you right on there but I guess like if you're asking I've always thought of it and I mean this may be one-sided but I've kind of asked myself a cuz I have done that before you said no one else believes and you're my calling or nobody knows what I'm going through why do I need everybody else to get it you know that my question isn't like do I do I believe it you know and if you do you do if you don't you don't and so I don't know it's kind of what I know that we feed off the energy of others I get that but at the same time I'm thinking man if you know like what you're what you're doing or feeling called to do is like I have to do this or I'm on this my purpose in life you can do it if you do it alone you know I think you'll see like the you'll see the benefits of it come later sometimes you don't see it but but like the ripple effect and the people that you're touching yeah is really like you just see like the tip of the iceberg in your lifetime you know yeah I think because secretly those us us winning those people over or getting them to agree with us and it gets harder when you go further out and away from you know the traditional stuff you could be right you know but getting other people to kind of believe you it brings false like a inward validation of your belief system and you're not wrong because you've won these many people over or this person believes you and you know what I'm saying and that I mean that's the whole thing of Cristiano were fun like when people over to doctrinal issues doctrinal issues that don't matter like little stupid stuff that people split and have schisms over and stuff like that you know but they what it means enough to them to get you to believe everything that they believe that they're willing to break fellowship if you don't you know that's the kind of weird stuff that it gets into yeah man well we were kind of talking about that one time before about how basically I mean and I don't like using this word loosely but you know a lot of religion a lot of modern day if you will fundamentalist Christianity can be that it can be like basically repackaged Gnosticism where basically your status your spiritual status is based on your knowledge which you know and that's why in yeah and it's like well heck you don't know you don't understand God the way I do or you don't believe what I believe so you're you're you're damned and I'm like well you know last I checked none of us had this all figured out and none of us had the full picture and even the possible so we all see a part right and so I'm thinking you know why whenever we get into that hey you got to believe what I believe and you got to see the universe and the Creator the way that I see it and believe it and if you disagree that I'm gonna break fellowship with you that just comes from insecurity and immaturity it doesn't come from knowing thyself you know it doesn't come from being solid and who you are and in your relationship with with with the Christ you know anything that's outside of our box we automatically throw it out we got another caller here from Southeast Texas caller welcome to the show someone calling from Southeast Texas okay maybe they just wanted to listen but yeah man it's uh it's just about making this stuff tangible and you can get way out there you get a you know we talk about our friend who's out there doing that stuff and preaching on the street corners and you know falling upon death ears you know this is the same guy who's you know his his gospel is the 1611 version like he'll go a jig is so weird man there's so many delusions bro I've seen so many delusional people who are drunk off the wine of their own doctrine man you know this guy he goes up to unbelievers in the street who were drunk asking him what kind of Bible do they have in their house and said I'll have a NIV and he goes in a dialogue how that's demonic and you need to get a King James Version because it's the only correct version it's like that's how he's like that's his plight now you know what I'm saying that says well whatever it meant whatever helps you get through the day man you know it's something out there for everybody though I guess you know it helps him he feels like he's doing his service to mankind and you know what I'm saying and you know kmac it I guess you know my two preferreds yes but like pretty much you got a good read it mmm yeah yeah prefer people asked me all the time I still think what King James but I like to go into other versions as well ESV NIV amplified ESV is a really good version that's some cool is some cool versions out there so yeah but with that man you stood at reg Reginald are you still there yeah okay yeah brother cool cool yeah brother yeah I'm gonna head it I when you swap swapped over I'm uted Uncle Mike and tried to get over to it yeah bro we got we got to have you on the phone here Doug come on and share your story man for four Episode bro you gotta schedule it's make it happen that sounds good to me brother I'd love to do it man hey you talk a little bit about the above what I think I think you called me up and left me a voicemail and years talking about give me some greet I'll my dumb kids give some green Bibles to the kids to hand out some I don't remember what you were saying man that was brought out well that was brother laying off before he was uh before he was brother way before he was before you with a youtube star right yeah my channel delete her for good funny stuff it was it was beautiful man I hate I lost all that stuff yeah man I mean yeah that's I think that's part of it some of this stuff gets delusional we could I could bring that oh I'm not gonna say anybody's names but if you know the personation I just did I sound just like him I know but we had a friend we was in a prayer and I love this dear brother we were praying for some people and stuff and demons were being cast out and then this guy gets up and he's holding his head he's like hi man one of them had cut me did y'all get cut we're like what did y'all get cut Jackie Kizer a demon hair flew by cut me in my head yeah we can create some interesting fantasies with this mind that God gave us you know man ight already crazy you starts buying yourself though right now I was a saying you tell yourself with something long enough you begin to believe it you know which I've been I've been victim of my own folly there too so yeah I get I've gotten messages over the years from having somewhat of a platform or from like all kind of weird people a lot of people who I don't want to make fun of them but people who are on medications and who you know have stuff wrong with them upstairs and stuff and and I say that my music creates a safe haven for some of those people but I think some of these churches do too you know what I'm saying for the delusional people to have a platform and be okay you I'm saying so there's some of the crazies who kind of they're not just in Islam they're not just in the New Age they're in Christianity as well so I have some people who were like reached out to me and I had one woman and I hate to even say this because I have fear that this woman's watching this stuff it's insane but I don't fear but I don't want her to watch if you watch what she's like obsessed with a bra and she was like you know who you are not watching out ten women quit watch no she was kind of like she sent me messages and stuff talking about the Illuminati in the Masons have ordained us to be together and that my wife isn't the person that God chose for me and stuff you know what I'm saying it gets into some weird stuff and like your mind can kind of like - how fanatic can use fans get I mean we've seen stories and weird stuff that happens and uh but no like and then I have had other people who message me and tell me that they're my mother from a past life and they're like yeah I'm you know I'm your mother from a past life anomalous I just brush it off like I don't think you are you know it's okay though you know blah blah blah and it's the older lady she's like no I'm Your Mother and God sent me here to watch over you and she's like don't you make fun of me I'm Your Mother speed I was your mother and I'm like okay mom thanks mom you know I get other people who message mr. hey brother I want to meet you tonight in a vortex in the dream state I'm gonna come through the vortex and I'm gonna ask for travel over there and we're gonna hang out in the dream state me you and like some celebrity and I'm like man these people are crazy you know but and that's some of the the delusions that you can entertain with your mind man but here's that here's the here's the tricker what if okay and then another guy hit me up say he's the Archangel Michael and he just says and he says okay do you believe me bro and I'm like you hit me up on facebook messenger telling me all this weird stuff you if I believe you say if you all show me a sign like won't you fly over here or you know give me a Parisian make me let me believe you know I know I don't believe you and so what if we get to heaven we stand before God and God says Derrick I had much to show you I sent the Archangel Michael unto you and you didn't believe him you made fun of him and you said he was a crazy person and then I sent your mother your mother travelled through another dimension and the time portal to tell you that she was watching over you and you didn't believe like I know that's probably not gonna happen but that's the devil's advocate of the whole thing you know yeah crazy stuff who are we to say though I don't know that could have been Michael I doubt it but I didn't resonate with when you whenever they were no not at all I mean because and that's the weird thing because it is a bad like we do talk about some really intense stuff here that okay let's put like this this is the crazy thing the way I look at those messages and those people right and they're out there to me I don't believe them the church people look at me like that all true seeker says he's in contact with angelic beings he can summon UFO he's seen UFOs and he hears God and he's in the Kundalini so they you know as I would look at these people who were maybe led astray or maybe watch too many movies or something you know like those not the church people look at me but you guys to when you guys are talking about this stuff they look at you like I'm not sure how much we had a friend I'm not sure I'll say his name it was a man named arnesto did you know much about that Reggie that whole incident with him which one was that one his name was arnesto and um anyway he was in the church he was talking about numerology and he got really far out there and he had to go to the doctor because he wasn't taking his medicine but he got in like weird stuff like he went test drove a car and it was a white Porsche and he drove it to test-drive it test act like he was gonna buy and he drove it to the church and he had a sword with him he was driving around town saying that he was the second coming of Christ riding the white horse and he was going to like a car wheel charge like he had to be like committed and stuff and he was teaching and leading in churches and like when all that stuff what happened we looked at him like yeah he needs help he's just way out there he says he's a second coming of Christ he's driving up you know and so the fear is that like those people look at me and you guys too like I said that you're those people who are way out there and making it up and you need help and I can't believe people follow you you know what I'm saying that's the weird dichotomy of this whole thing because it because we're we walk a fine line like some of this stuff brother it blows my mind daily I don't even you know what I'm saying like it's it is stuff out of movies like they do make movies about this stuff that we're talking about that we're into like it's in they make movie scripts about it so it's crazy as far out there man but but there is a line like where did you draw the line where do you call the person I say hey look you're not my mom my mom's alive she's here with me I don't think that was you or how much do you entertain it gets dangerous there's healers and people I don't entertain this stuff and these people pay them money and come unto them and other people from seats of power and authority are telling them this stuff like that hey okay you're true seekers mother like there's people who will go to sessions and they like fill their heads with this stuff it's insane brother like that's the weird part we talk about we can't just say that we're clear of it all because we entertained some out out there stuff to even have this conversation you know what I'm saying and I would be dumbfounded to say they're crazy but I'm the one who's fine mine I'm good I know how this stuff sounds you know what I'm saying it's the weird dichotomy of it all man where's the line Reggie the Bible I get the line it's the line for me honestly why tell you I can tell you that I can tell you this brother I know that like for example the reason I can talk to somebody like you it's because you talk and I mean I heard I'll listen I didn't get to jump in on the front end of the the the podcast night because interestingly enough I had somebody from Mobile Alabama called me and was wanting to talk about the you know the demonic realm and stuff that's kind of a separate story but I was thinking about like you know I heard you guys talking about like shadow people and then see and aimed angels and stuff like that well I've seen I've seen those things and if I want to be honest about it I could talk to somebody like truth seeker about it you know there are people out there like yeah man I've experienced that too but then there's like you said there this is so this is a platform where we can say hey man you know if you have experienced or seen something like this you could like these are things that like you could talk to your parents about and they tell you oh hush hush we don't talk about that you know this is not real is probably just the devil trying to mess with your mind or whatever but then every now and then you run into that person who's on the same the same level with you on the same vibration or whatever you want to call it a McDonald and you can and and why is that well because they've experienced the same thing hey I used to see shadow people in my room whenever I was a kid all right scared the daylights Caird me man because they were standing there watching me and I'm like I would go over there and try to touch them and on walk right through them and stuff like that and I always thought it was look like my dad standing in my doorway and I go on to his room and there he is laying there sleeping and stuff and then I I would see angelic being you know peering around the corner and running in a field and stuff like that you tell people like that I've had people laugh at me I did stuff like that above but then I pushed somebody like like like truth seeker and I'm just like hey man you know I'm listening to your stories and I believe it now it is something that that I can put get on a video tape or something and show to everybody else know maybe it is something that's happening in my spirit and in my mind maybe this but the fact is is that I acknowledge that that it has happened and we can talk about these things what are they you know and in this forest like you said the wine being drawn it's kind of like I mean we would just live a practical life you know they grounded daddy down to earth do ya do what work yeah you know I'm not gonna does it is it practical to go start a monastery where we talk about these things or whatever and only the people like us can come with their I don't know if that's practical or not but but I mean to have an avenue with people who are dealing with these questions and stuff and then thinking man in my crazy and they can't like you said you can't go to the church or what are the religious studying and talk about it act you can't even talk to you can't even have these conversations that we're beer with people you know people want to talk about sports and stuff they don't want to talk about all this stuff and so every now and then though you run into people and they're like yeah man yeah what you know what I saw aliens I've seen spaceships are up and just like okay that's cool man tell me about your experience and I can deal with that
