Their agenda is to deceive the unsuspecting seeker who is led in some frivolous truth that catches their attention.

were very busy you were making the rounds and doing a lot of stuff and traveling and doing a lot of speaking and stuff but I'm glad we were finally able to make it happen and it's such an honor to have you here with me on the podcast well it's primetime I think it's really exciting that I'm getting to talk with you you're my first interview and over a year and I'm just really excited for what we're gonna cover today for sure let's just start here just kind of like just a quick overview for those people who are tuning in who have no idea who you are just kind of give just a brief overview of who you are what you bring to the table we'll start there yeah absolutely my name is Teresa and eres my projects divine frequency I'm on YouTube and Twitter and I have a website as well the divine frequency calm a little bit of a background on me I was so my family before I was born they were actually stationed at Bentwaters Woodbridge its twin bases but they were stationed there during the time of the Rendlesham forest incident which is a mass UFO sighting that occurred in 1980 I'm sure you guys know about it it's world-renowned if you don't go check it out and so I was kind of born into a family where UFOs were always being talked about when I lived in Virginia I was raised Catholic and our church our priest was giving a sermon one time when all the statues of Mary began to cry and this didn't happen just once it happened quite a few times it was in Time magazine he exhibited the wounds of Christ there were all kinds of different miracles that were happening around him so I was kind of raised in this atmosphere of you know what's the bigger picture here are we dealing with secret technologies hid by the government what's up with miracles you know I was raised in a family where both of my parents were very Catholic very Christian and just accepted that these things were a reality so it was a very supernatural paranormal family by the time I went to college I decided that something I was really passionate about was critiquing the images and messages received through mainstream media outlets I thought that it was kind of crazy to think in our day and age there were just so many messages that were being subliminally seeded into our minds that we just would blindly accept because that's just kind of the atmosphere that we were surrounded by so I started developing this thesis I ended up getting a bachelor's degree in journalism and then going off into the you know public sector and becoming a professional and all that and then around the age of 25 26 I think I was 25 I wanted more for my life I kind of looked around me and thought this is all a matrix it was one of those moments where I'm like this is my life this is you know there's got to be something more for me I want to offer something to the world other than just working in the software industry which not saying there's anything about that that's bad it was just at that time in my life it was a shift that I needed to go through so I ended up quitting my job moving across the country I started to get into kind of some New Age spirituality I started writing a book I eventually published that book and went on to public speaking and that kind of catches you up just on a basic level okay awesome like and I want to give a shout out to somebody here hang out in the chat Chris Garner who during the school of the Mystics two weeks ago said hey you might want to check out Teresa and what's going on with her right now it's like what's happening and he's the one who told me that she's kind of had a change of heart and now she's being more positive and more Bible oriented and posting bible scriptures and and she's kind of had a change of heart so I went over and seen your channel and seen there was a lot of changes and stuff being made so shout out to Kris garner so I guess the first question is what happened oh it's such a huge question well okay so I was raised Catholic and I was very much involved in my faith from from a core level I've always believed in God I always knew there was a higher power that resonated with me I felt the presence of the Holy Spirit all of those things were a part of my upbringing for me when I was 16 and I was in college I started to come in contact with information about like the LGTBQ I don't even know the phrase LGBTQ I think it is but it started to really mess with me I was you know researching the Catechism and what do I really believe about certain social issues that just really I had a hard time reconciling and when I got into conspiracy content it kind of made me realize like I really need to be careful with authoritarian belief structures and so I started started to sort of question the foundation of it all because I was having certain you know social justice questions then moving forward I my dad actually gave me a book on reincarnation and I started getting into it was actually called journey of souls and so I started learning about reincarnation which kind of led me into a new age kind of belief systems and so I'm researching all of that and I'm going well how does this reconcile with Catholicism and to make a long story short I ended up getting really deeply involved in the occult I started doing tarot readings I built a tarot business I was doing channeling I mean it was it just kind of expanded into something where I was involving myself in a world of supernatural forces that I absolutely couldn't control there's there are forces out there there are powers out there that as as humans we can't control and what basically happened is I was leveled out I mean it was like coming to the realization that you know there are things that we just can't control and there are powers that can manipulate us it was like I confronted this concept of evil like we hear that the concept of evil some people disagree that evil even exists some people accept that evil exists but they just don't really have a personal experience with it in a way that really allows them to fully appreciate it and I'm not saying that I even fully appreciate it all I can tell you is my experience right we all have parts of the puzzle here my perspective isn't 100 capital-t truth I mean your truth seeker right what's the point is that what we all have perspectives that we need to add into the pot so that we can figure out what's going on for me it happened in October of 2018 and things were going really well for me my career was just on the up-and-up I was working with so many people collaborating developing all kinds of multimedia projects and I got way ahead of myself there was one night in particular where things had just started to crash around me because of the occult forces that I had and I had brought into my life welcomed in my life which I hadn't known I mean I was ignorant to all of this it wasn't like I was saying Oh evil forces come into my life you know it creeps in slowly but it was like I was being crushed by the weight of evil and I remember at that moment I'm laying in bed and at that moment I had realized that I had been walking away from God I had chosen to take a path that was self worshiping it was ego and it was prideful and it was greedy all of these things that I wasn't aware of it wasn't like I had an intention to to go that path it just slowly but surely started to happen and then all of a sudden I'm like why am I so unhappy why am I so unfulfilled what is that you know and at that moment it was like I felt like I was in outer space like all the decisions that I had made to get me to where I was I had done on my own and I felt like a child I felt like a child and I just cried out and at that moment God came back into my life with a wrecking ball force I cannot even describe with human words what this experience was like it was like my entire perspective my whole framework of reality shifted in an instant and he started showing me all of the things that were wrong with my current life I praise God for doing this I mean I I have no idea why I just feel really lucky you know what I'm saying like I just feel so humbled that in my time of darkness there was there was hope for me you know I wasn't abandoned in my darkness humans can abandon other humans but God will never abandon us God will never abandon us when we humble ourselves and we call out to God and we just say hey I want you in my life I want your presence in my life I want a personal relationship with you God will answer it comes down to that first step of humility and realizing like I am just a human and I need help and what happened was I reached over from my Bible and I opened it up and it was like God just started baptizing me in the word all of these things that I had confusion about suddenly he was just showing me passage after passage after passage just showing me all of the things that I had been wanting to know they were there the whole time it was kind of funny kind of I felt sort of sheep and shut that moment were like okay I had kind of been getting all of this because I had had some kind of incorrect you know layers of incorrect beliefs about the Bible and I honestly think it had to take time for me this was a part of my journey I had to get to where I was before God could hit me over the head with some truth you know it takes some time sometimes and I became aware of strongholds and the spirit of delusion and he just started showing me all of these things and just breaking down these strongholds of lies in my mind and I just started getting rid of everything new I threw away thousands of dollars worth of books and New Age materials and I burned all my tarot cards and it was just like slowly but surely God was showing me what I needed to do you know it's good just some context really quick again for the people who don't really know who you are like the people you were rubbing shoulders with you were like welcoming to like inner circles of really big names in the New Age community David Wilcock huge you know was promoting your work Corey Goode another big name I mean there's so many more Jimmy Church and some of these big guys who have influences and would sell out conferences and stuff like that kind of like picked you up as a little buddy and pushed you out there and then like you were in the forefront of all of these speaking engagements and speaking as an expert and I can see how it happened really fast and you're like wait what did I get myself into like so so for a lot of people who we mentioned those names and they represent different things to us again the name David Wilcock 2012 enigma changed my life of me seeking for some deeper things and I was a Christian at the time but getting into some stuff about the third eye or listening to metaphysical conversations about 2012 enigma around 2012 and that changed my life and so he represents something for me and a lot of other people we look up to these people we put them on pedestals you've rubbed shoulders with them they tell you not to meet the people that you look up to did that kill some of the magic once you were kind of welcomed into the inner circle of like hey these are like the guardians of this movement and they have all this pool and not to say that you know not not that throw anybody under the bus or whatever but did it kill some of the magic once you found out that there were regular people type deal it's a really interesting question I've never been asked that before I I didn't really I wouldn't necessarily say I pedestal eyes to any of them I mean I looked up to some of that I mean I guess for me personally I didn't really pedestal eyes any of these people so I guess I have sort of a different perspective on that but I will say that when you're when you're around you know influencers for me it was really exciting because I have a lot of content to offer and I have a lot of I just I love collaborations and so for me I think what it was I got kind of swept up in the excitement of okay now what are we gonna do we can do all this like really cool stuff together and we can create and we can grow and I was working on you know getting my book published and creating content to present at these conferences which I you know I'm a public speaker I have a background in coaching on the corporate level in you know accounting firms and stuff so it's like for me it was really exciting to have the opportunity to get on stage and generate a community if people were for me it is about truth seeking like that is the whole reason why I started to do what I did with divine frequency and I mean that's the reason why I got a degree in journalism and it's just who I am it's it's embedded within me now I think that to a certain extent some of these people that we pedestal eyes like sure they can be true seekers too but I think we get into like a dangerous area when we hold someone else's perspective above our own and the reason why I say that is because at the core the truth is we each have a perfect divine connection to our Creator therefore when we lift up someone else's perspective above our own we can start to negate our own connection to God and and it creates what I call an intermediary and this is when you get into the gray area of idolatry where you start putting wedges between you and your Creator so there's danger inherent in any of that yeah yeah it sounds it sounds very similar to my story you know what I'm saying of just like having this 180 experience of being deep into the occult and getting into a place where I couldn't get myself out of and because I was able to see these entities that I was welcoming into my life like you said slowly but surely you thought it was good this is all love and light man there's gods there's demons there's all of these entities around you that want to hang out and then you find out that there's a lot of beings of darkness who are cloaking themselves in light and they don't tell you that one when you get there but you find yourself in this place of like wow I'm fighting for my sanity in a place where just a couple days ago I was fine right and just kind of messing with your head so for me I'm always there's a plumb line of like the truth seeker again of like I'm looking into so much different stuff or whatever and there's always this this moment of seeking truths many different troops truths about the government truths about conspiracy theories truths about our DNA and our Anatomy and all of these different troops have been hidden from us right and we're seeking these troops but if there's a difference of seeking the truth which is Jesus and you had this encounter who stepped into your life and there's a difference that people don't get that if they've never had an encounter or if they've never read the Bible and have it open up and unfold and we're looking for these deep mystical esoteric truths because we're told in these spiritual communities in new ways community the Bible is just kind of like an elementary thing to keep people under control and there's not a lot it's been tampered with and it's old and outdated so we need something new but like we so we want something deep we want something esoteric but the Bible is the most beautiful the deepest book you will ever read it's as you're reading it it's like beholding in a mirror were telling you about yourself the deep secrets of your heart that's manifesting it and you read the same thing but get different revelation about what you're reading each time and it's this communion with your Creator through the scriptures and so there's a reason why the New Age movement or demonic forces want to keep you away from that book and say well Jesus was just another way he was just a good man or a good prophet or a miracle worker versus he is the truth right and looking up to him as the the truth in the Christ and you find out even last week on our school of the Mystics people were like name-dropping all of these people that they were listening to and getting into the spiritual movement and hey what you think about this guy in this guy and for the most part I don't like the name call I don't like to point fingers I'm like hey if you're supposed to learn from them God will teach you I kind of trust the process but it's like hold on like this jewel that you have this this a lot of people are baby Christians as we would call them when it comes to their knowledge of who Jesus is and they just have a piece of it and and in the world can so easily corrupt that and so many of these teachers and many of these people in the spiritual movement when you mention the name of Jesus they get angry you need to call them Christ his name wasn't do you have Ollie you can mention booboo you Buddha you can mention Babaji you can mention Krishna you can mention all of these other gods I'm in rah and all this kind of stuff but when you mention Jesus they get uncomfortable you know and they didn't that their face changes it almost more staid look like they took a bite of a sour lemon I've dealt with it too I'm on all these podcasts I interview them they have me on their shows but so there's an there's there's a there's a delicate faith there when it comes to protecting the intimacy with Jesus that a lot of these people are trying to corrupt you know and so we have to be careful when it comes to seeking truths plural versus seeking the truth and keeping the main thing the main thing because it's so easily fights for your time you know when it comes to communion or coming together to partake of communion the scripture says over every time that you come together do this in remembrance of me I want you to do this I want you to take the wine detect and take the bread and I want you to remember me why because this we so easily forget what he's done we so easy because you know we're not always doing bad we're not always in this dark pit where we're screaming out for a savior sometimes we're doing good we feel like we're on the mountain and so it's easy to forget about you know even my darkness is very similar to what happened to you was in 2000 you know September of 2000 I came back to Christ and and I'm a it's been a long journey I've been really good since then so it's like I always need to remember that and I think all of us do that we need Jesus more today than we needed him in our darkness and to always remember that because even you moving forward they're gonna be ideas and some of those old ways hey come back we'll accept your back it's okay we like we all make mistakes and you missed the limelight and all that stuff's gonna tempt you it's happened to all of us just like Satan pull Jesus to the top of the mountain say hey all this can be yours I know you turned your back on me but hey you can have it I'll give you the kingdoms of the world you know so we're all tempted with that every single one of us so your story's amazing I want to get into it a little bit deeper but just really jump in really quick I loved when you were talking about conspiracy content and how we're kind of all seeking the truth here and there's a question in the chat about lies and deception and what I think is really interesting is to consider that with conspiracy content there's this land I'm gonna be doing a whole video series on this coming up this month there's a whole kind of mentality or faction of conspiracy people that follow conspiracy content that are actually very paranoid they become a addicted to this you know they become addicted to this kind of content and they become extremely paranoid and I think this right here is where you start to see lies and deception because I think they themselves are being deluded they're becoming delusional and they're losing touch with reality and this is something that God was showing me through the Scriptures very very initially like early on when he started to to you know kind of envelop me and His grace and true and as that was starting to come through so for me I think what's really fascinating to think about and this is directly related to what you just said is that we can feel this paranoia or sadness or depression alleviate when we understand that God has covered us and he has made promises that he's kept and he has made promises that he will keep and we we are existing in a space of imperfection we're in the time of imperfection right now where we see in a mirror dimly and reality is blurred but then when the time of perfection comes all of this will be wiped away and we will see clearly we will see God and we will know him fully as we have been fully known by God and that to me was such a piece that just permeated into the fabric of my existence where it's like okay any any level of doubt or paranoia or frustration with what's going on in the world yes we live in a day and age where we can make changes yes absolutely but there's a problem when we get looped into this idea that the more we do we can become spiritually advanced and we can evolve like this we love deception you get caught up in it thinking that there's more and more and more that you need to do personally in order to be spiritually advanced or evolved that's it's a lie it's a deception it's not true you are exactly who God major to be he wants to have a personal relationship with you exactly who you are there's nothing you need to do nothing you need to eat nothing you need to read no one you need to follow period all you need to do is stop let it all go there's so many distractions all around you God wants to speak to you directly and wants a personal relationship with you and that is that's your spiritual experience nobody can take that from you and you know one's gonna sell that to you you can't buy that it's parent in your experience I love it see that's the the beautiful thing about the kingdom being within what Jesus said hey the kingdom is within you that we don't need anything that they're selling us we don't need to go to the event we don't need the book you know and again people get addicted to the content they want to know more I got to find out more than there's rabbit trails and things like that and things that people are you know follow in and then when you look at like I mean I may have contributed to some of this delusion you know what I'm saying or whatever the case is and so it's it's um you know the Bible in its of itself is super deep you know people but the thing about it is let's talk about the Bob a little bit more is like it says in Corinthians that you have to be illuminated with the light of the Holy Spirit to even understand the mysteries that are in that thing people pick it up and they're like this is a book of control this is a book of that but it's like when we pick it up it lights up its ad if we're reading something else we you start crying like that's just a different encounter that we have because of goddess is is wooing us through the infilling of the Holy Spirit and so there's a difference there so we have to like bring that to the table to awaken by the message and the message is awakened by the word of Christ let me ask you this though so what when you when you went through this deep awakening in this return to your faith in Christ and and God you were in a relationship as well were you married at the time or were you know I was divorced back in - I don't even remember it's like three years ago so when I met him first yes I went through a divorce and then that was it was after the divorce that I went on to the conference circuit and started meeting people and doing public speaking okay so when you had a change of heart and kind of like couldn't be involved in some of the things that you were promoting and some of the partnerships and things like that word you out it were you were was there false news spread as I hey she's kind of losing it right now you kind of think they're worse people slandering your name what usually happens you know when you go through something like that did that happen to you or yeah I mean I'm not it's interesting because there were a couple of layers that happened it was like a bomb went off in my life honestly I think that you know it's interesting to hear you say that when people have a change of heart they're attacked and I'm like okay that's that's interesting because that's I don't even think that's what I'd speery I think that part of what I experienced was because I left an authoritarian belief structure I didn't realize that I had gotten myself looped up in a UFO new-age brand of excuse me basically a cult and I know that that that word triggers everybody and no one wants to believe they're in a cult cuz you just joined a church right that's right exactly well and you know the way that I say it is like I can tell I understand that people can think of this whole pendulum swing thing okay she got scared she went back and hid under a rock okay I get it but the truth is that's not actually reality this was a ladder climb and the the more that I continued to put out content I know that this will kind of that will kind of come out so I'm not really concerned about those allegations but to answer your question directly yeah i when I left this this group of people it was it was crazy man I mean it was like I was getting hit from all ends yeah I mean there was definitely there was libelous information being published about me there were slander coming out of people's mouths it was crazy but I think that part of it is you have the people that follow blindly maybe not even they won't they don't want to say blindly I have to be PC here people that follow authoritarian belief structures that really want to believe it and it makes me wonder about like if you're getting so angry about what you believe maybe you should stop for a second and ask yourself what that says about you because if you're angry does that mean that you're you're concerned that it's gonna be false and you're gonna have to let go of it you know what is where does that anger come from because when you have the truth that's a piece inside of your heart you don't have to hold on to it because it's just truth is capital-t truth inherent it's it's there it's constant it's not changing it's it's ever-present you can't get rid of truth because it's truth it's it's all-encompassing so you know seeing that people get so angry because they for them they had placed me in a certain position and when when you put someone in a box and then they step out of that box you get angry get back in your box you're supposed to be this person that I've created in my mind that you are and when you show me that you're not now I have to adjust my own worldview to accept and incorporate your new self into my worldview now I don't think a lot of people could do this so there was that and then there were the people that ran this kind of belief structure that were afraid of what I might say that would get people to go we'll wait a second wait a second maybe this isn't the truth because they themselves are beholden to their viewpoints and they feed off of other people believing what they're saying it's a feedback loop it's a total feedback loop so I get it you know I have nothing but love in my heart like it's like whatever my new mission is to to go to that that nexus point where people are coming into new information and they're going how do i navigate this truth-seeking journey with my feet under me so because I've been tossed to and fro I've been through some stuff myself I've made my mistakes I'm not perfect I am NOT a perfect person by any means I don't hold anybody to that standard and that's totally cool with me I'm ready to move forward and in moving forward I'm sort of incorporating some of that pain into into me to to heal that through helping other people who are coming into their own truth-seeking journey at whatever level they're at and they're looking for people online to kind of have that conversation with them which as I know what you do which is awesome and you know I'm just gonna continue doing doing my thing you know one of the things and it still bothers me to this day and I've been I've dealt with it for years but how did how did it make you feel obviously I know how it made you feel but it can mess with you when there's like slander videos and exposed videos and those things because you were kind of targeted by different because you were lumped in with Corey Goode and those and David Wilcock and there's a lot of people who whether they don't like their information or don't like their platform or whatever thing they have then so you get kind of trickles down to you too let's do a video on her so there's a lot of you know videos and you really comment sections and it they get kind of weird it still messes with me when I see it maybe when it's from people who are close to me because you deal with that too and that you did but how did how did you navigate through that did that trigger anything of like oh wow all of these videos coming out about me did you watch any of them any of that kind of stuff I think I want to say like somebody like the dark journalist who was very outspoken and project Avalon and people who we've looked up to I've looked up to those guys when I was really into the movement and they've kind of like not they but Avalon and those guys have took taking shots at me and stuff like that but it kind of messes with you how did you navigate through that kind of stuff cuz you're still gonna get it now now you're gonna get it II maybe even more now that now you know this New Age return jesus-freak or whatever the case is you know yeah I mean I've I've had my fair fair share of hate speech I have I deal with that on a daily basis I think I'm just a really triggering person somehow I don't really understand it but yeah people really want to hate me I think that part of it is and I don't know if there are any female content creators out there watching but it's hard to do this as a woman as a woman with curly hair and lipstick on her face I mean seriously it's like you get torn apart for anything it doesn't matter what you say you say one thing you do the other either side someone's gonna hate you so I've been dealing with that for so long I mean that I mean yeah it definitely at times gets to me it's frustrating but it's all I mean it's never gonna end it's not kind of just a bond into it or it's just a facet of what you deal with you know what I try to do is focus on the people that actually get it actually understand what I'm doing I think that people want to assume that I'm like some of the hate speech I get oh she just wants attention she is brainwashed and she you know she's stupid she's unintelligent like all these things that people want to say when they on a surface level don't know anything about me I mean you can watch all of my content on YouTube YouTube and still not know a thing about me like I only highly showcase certain things like there's only certain information I'm gonna put that out there on the internet you know but I be honest authentic as possible I try to be an open book I you know I don't have anything to hide I am authentic and I'm not unintelligent by the way I try to have a balanced perspective I have conversations with people I actually talked to my detractors those who are respectful I mean if you could you go on to my last two YouTube videos and I've engaged with some people that had some criticisms and I said hey that's a really good point why don't we talk about that and we had amazing conversations and by the end of it they're going you know what I think I'm gonna follow your content now like the fact that you can meet me where I'm at you know yeah project Avalon they hate me over there you know I've seen some of those threads and at times it's been upsetting but you know I think that ultimately people get on the internet and they they feed on what they want to feed on and it and it's it's to make them feel however it is that they want to feel so they're seeking out that kind of information and if watching a video of mine is gonna anger them and make them want to call me ugly or stupid then you know to each their own and love and light to you and have fun commenting on your forums about me yep yep it's that's just what it is until they really want to you know get to know you or but it is cool when they come back and you get those people who do kind of lash out in like hey I was wrong or whatever well there's like journalists like that you know whenever I you know I went to contact in the desert 2017 which is a conference a UFO conference I met Corey Goode and the rest of them and then immediately I was being attacked on the internet I was called a Satanist they were saying that I was doing satanic rituals in the desert and I'm going like what so yeah I mean it was immediately out the gate there relize being published but that's all quashed I mean that it's it's water under the bridge you know like people thought that because I was associated with certain people I was a certain way you know and I'm not saying that I'm perfect yeah I've made my mistakes and I've learned in the process and you know I've come out on the other end of that and I'm trying to move forward you know it's really hard when you get a growed into somebody else's content creation because they have so many followers and then you can't break free of that because everybody wants to perceive you as you know being associated with other people but you know but all you can do is just keep putting one foot in front of the other and continuing to hang out with the people who actually support you and have a good support system and move forward you know for sure which gives out out to the moderators in the chat anybody being mean or bad in the chat y'all put them in timeout or block them do your thing guys I give you permission to do that come hail Satan stuff some little weird you get I get that some time to calm people flood the chats and come over from twits and stuff like that you know when I asked you about this because this is a big one man that um that you you mentioned in passing but it's I think we always have to be aware of this because you did it you mentioned the pendulum right of the swinging back and forth and so my process has been a pendulum swinging and trying to find out who I am and what that looks like and what I'm able to do and and going back and forth of like coming out of church and then talking about aliens or talking about you know the cosmos or whatever there was just because I was a Christian minister I was an evangelist telling my story about how God saved me from the darkness and things like that and did that for many years but when I got into 2012 enigma some of the stuff I was talking about it and then I kind of received that scrutiny from the church crowd so that mess with me and made me feel like I was a black sheep and then I would repent and like come back to say hey I don't I don't you know because I don't you know believe that stuff anymore guys they would accept me back like okay he's okay he's okay but if I believed any of the the far-out New Age stuff even if there was biblical backing they didn't care they like associate you so a couple years that I was just like back and forth back and forth I mean even in the same day it was driving me mad like trying to figure out who I was and what it looked like and you can't be a Christian to be in astrology you can't be a Christian and do this or you know or who would Jesus is to me now or whatever the case is and so there's this pendulum that goes back and forth and we're here for one day the next day we have a change of heart and you know what I'm gonna try to make up to those people I would do interviews with on new-age shows and stuff and then I would message them the next day hey can you take that interview down no no and I would make up reasons like hey I think that you know what I'm saying and they would be gracious enough to do it and I've had people do it to me guys come here talk about angelology and contacting angels and then you know if using sigil magic and stuff and then a couple weeks later a year later hey can you take that down when you google my name I'm the first thing that wraps up and so that up and I've had to change the part I'm back in church now and so I don't want that to be promoted so that's part of it depend of them we have to be careful because the pendulum can be a wrecking ball and like you said like it comes back in a Jif we burn bridges and we're short with people we're saying stuff that we can't undo you know what I'm saying it's definitely part of the process but I think that the narrow road is really about balance and you find it as the scripture says I really do think it's about balance and so I want to commend you but I want you to keep that in mind too again like going back from the beginning when I said like it's gonna be those people reaching out hey come on let's do this and like okay you know and let's make amends and hey let's do that I had a bunch of really close friends in my life ministers and things who we were really close with and yesterday I just talked to one of them the first time and I want to say three four years maybe and it was off of some exposing thing hey stay away from true seeker true seekers there's true seekers that and really went on this like attack or whatever online and I was like okay done with you cool and I finally made amends and and accepted the apology and that kind of thing and but it's all about the pendulum like I seen the pendulum in their life like they were into what we're doing interviewing New Agers and interviewing these people but then it becomes overwhelming what the hell am i entertaining I'm in a ten people who were looking in the dark magic or people who were looking into the occult and I'm and they feel like they're promoting it or whatever so it's part of the process the pendulum in and for everyone listen and they all have their own experiences in their own spiritual walk that they have to walk out but I feel like do as little damage as possible absolutely that you know instead of far I'm doing a blog or video because people will download you can delete the video but people were downloaded and re-upload it to the channel and stuff you know it's so we got to be careful about that stuff definitely and that's a huge confirmation for me I appreciate you going through that and I totally agree with you I couldn't agree with you more when I left my social media back in October of 2018 I pulled everything down I pulled back hardcore I stopped everything and it took me a year to come back and through that time I was researching hardcore man I was reading so much I went to grad school at a seminary first semester and I I mean I was consuming so much content and it was only December really of last year so like a month ago that it clicked in a way cuz I was like you know God I'm letting you move in my life I'm not making any moves until you tell me what to do and I was just being still I'm like I'm not I'm not touching this with the 20 Cole until you tell me what to do because I will make I will make mistakes and I'm not saying I won't make any more mistakes I'm gonna make plenty of his face but and it's gonna be fun while we do it right but back in December I realized that all of what I had been through and everything from my past it wasn't that I needed to walk away from it it was that I was being integrated it was coming into this space of wholeness that I didn't know existed and it was fascinating to watch God do this with my life I'm like oh okay I am I am whole again it took it took a while but what I what I found was that I'm actually really interested in this nexus point between the supernatural and the paranormal realms or there's actually a distinction between the two and I started writing a book about it I'm about halfway done with the book now about 20,000 words in and what I think is really interesting is that you it's a paranormal which is like your normal abilities like psy abilities things that we just have the ability to do that's unexplained so this is this is just a natural physical occurrence right then you have the supernatural this is beyond the physical and there's a nexus point and there's an overlap between the two of these circumstances like you have like the phenomenon that's supernatural which is beyond the physical that can come in and interact with the paranormal like dreams or psychic abilities and everything that's supernatural is by default paranormal because it's unexplained and it will always be unexplained because it's beyond the physical now the paranormal isn't always supernatural because it could just be something naturally occurring that we at some point will be able to explain so what I think is really interesting is where is what the Bible says about this like in my book I'm going into like laying the foundation of like systematic theology of what the Bible says about things like angels demons supernatural beings all of that and then I'm going to shift and the second part of the book that I haven't written yet that I'm doing a lot of research for currently is let's start talking about certain things that happen in our lives that we have some kind of paranormal experience or you know phenomenon that's occurring and then but what what if there's a supernatural force coming into that right and there is these are things that we don't know we can guess we can assess our our circumstances our our experiences and come together as a group and go like what does this mean what could this mean you know and we can try to figure it out we'll never know but it's really interesting and it cut it I think you stole my book idea that's what I did that's what I did with my book you got it no like it's the exact same thing and I think it's the Spirit of God letting us know like hey we need to get this information out but we have to you know there's certain people I wanted to talk to you and and and hopefully just kind of see where you were headed with this and where your spirituality is in Christ and so for me I feel like in the book talks about it a lot is that like like the Mystics of old the Saints the prophets the seers the disciples were very spiritual people and again a lot of the stuff that we talk about new age again you did videos about God speaking through the dream state and the Bible is full of examples were like like exclusively go to sleep and I'll talk to you go into a trance close your eyes be still and I'll speak to you all of us have to put our heads on our pillow at night and we can't run from the voice of God dealing with this and we all have to deal with that and there's so many supernatural or paranormal stuff that happens within the Bible and how do we reconcile it to the faith the thing about it is the New Age movement has come in and kind of hijacked a lot of the things I think are our birthright as sons and daughters of God and even as Christians as believers in Christ that we were told we can't even the word trance is taboo for a lot of Christians but it's all throughout the Bible in a positive light God speaking with the casting of lots and I mean so many just leaving their bodies and going to Paul went to the third heaven and encountered things that it was not permissible to for him to even speak of like even if he tried to tell you what he's seen he would be doing a bad job and all of these beautiful mystical encounters that we've kind of given to the new age and so a lot of a lot of people in the church they'll have these encounters with a ghost or with a past loved one or with an ancestor or something in a dream state and they ask the pastor about it and they can't they don't know what to tell them they say hey stay away from it it's demonic but it's like this stuff's in in the scriptures and so they leave the church looking for answers and most of them don't come back because they're not reconciling it to their faith and I think that definitely my calling you know what I couldn't agree more it's like you you have this discrepancy or this this argument that shouldn't be an argument where you have people on one side looking at people in the church and they're they're speaking different languages like a different language but there really needs to be a meeting of the minds but I think a lot of I don't even want to use the word Christians because I don't want to start you know throwing throwing I mean there are people out there that want to call these experiences evil when that's not the case and what I think is really interesting is that as soon as I came out as a Christian everybody assumed everyone was like okay she's she's just brainwashed and she thinks this is all evil and is it because I didn't even know until this conversation that's why I wanted to have it right and it's it's interesting to me that it's like you say one word and everyone's like oh they have it all figured out cuz you've said one word and it's like wow you have no idea you have no idea anything about me and what I've been through I say one word and you decided that you you have it all figured out and and we need to be able to to have open conversations and you know I have no judgement I have no judgment in my heart to hurt anyone you know I say Christian and they go okay she's gonna be judgy and it's like you've got the wrong idea because I'm not judging anyone I have I have so many questions and I'm gonna keep going and that's okay and there's nothing wrong with that and and I I think that you know to speak directly to what you're saying I agree with you there are a lot of people that didn't get the answers that they needed inside the church and so they've thrown the baby out with the bathwater they go oh it's all wrong it's we can't obtain anything true out of this because of their experiences with people who don't know what to say back to them it's like yeah if Christians had a response to the conversation that is clearly happening and it's becoming scientific we're gonna you know Christians are gonna completely miss the mark they're already missing the mark on on this particular facet of truth-seeking and so you have those of us trying to pioneer it where it's like okay how do we create this conversation how do we create a safe space where people aren't gonna think like I'm gonna step into this arena and immediately get called a heretic you know it's it's just well it controversial it happens but I will say this and I've been talking to a lot of Christians and I'm runnin out is so weird because the stuff that we were persecuted for back in the day of talking about this stuff or whether it's astral travel or leaving the body or going into trance or the chakras or anything like that now with these are conversations that are being had in and many not all obviously but many Christian communities and there's movements of people that I'm a feel with shout out to Gil Hodges and Kingdom talks and I want to get you linked up with them as well that you do awesome interview with those guys but they're into encountering God through the mystical realms of just looking back throughout the scriptures of of how they did it there and also stepping into the next stage which they're really big into but there's a lot more Christians having the conversation now about this kind of stuff and and open to it and not just having the conversation but they're going after it they're engaging it they're leading group meditations where they're encountering verses like let's do a meditation and go talk to an angel or let's do a meditation where we go talk to the ET cela hold on let's do a meditation let's get quiet and ask for Jesus to come up and show up and ask for Jesus and I feel like it's so awesome these experiences that they're having in people's lives are being changed because it's real and so you know don't anybody listen and just be don't be afraid to have the conversation because it's definitely being had with or without you now and stuff that again like as a forerunner back in the day was persecuted for a lot of this stuff now it's open conversation the work that we were doing it are paying off because we were vocal about it you know even in the new-age community like reconcile is reconciling Christians to the spiritual realm but reconciling New Agers back to Christ look he loves you he wants to engage you and have a relationship with you and he's not mad at you and his love is is deeper than any ocean and it's taller than any mountain and you can encounter that in the privacy of your own home and it's the most beautiful mystical experience that you would ever have and not trust me in the book I've talked about many UFOs aliens spirits fairies all of these things that I believe in it did there exist on some level none of them hold any par any stick to an encounter with Jesus or even just a revelation of who he is the most beautiful of love became a person and walked among men and we can encounter that and he longs for us to hang out with them there's nothing more deep or spiritual than that and and that's what the message should be and I'm right I want to hear about your encounters with Jesus and and one of these beautiful encounters to just being in the midst of darkness like it takes that contrast right like you wouldn't know what you wouldn't be able to see how beautiful he was unless you were in the darkness that you were in you know and he came came in to save you you know right and I think that to speak to what you're saying though it's like yeah I think a problem is that when you take yourself out the you take you think you can take yourself out from underneath the authority of God what you can't what you think you can so you you step out you go out you know I'm gonna rebel I'm gonna be disobedient I don't I don't believe in God or I don't want God in my life or whatever it is that you say and maybe because you're mad at the church you've been you know wronged by someone maybe you had an experience and you know the priest told you that that it was evil or something so now you don't want any authority so you're being disobedient so you're going off the rails the completely other way talking about the pendulum swing right and now you're letting all of these evil forces into your life because you have decided that you're going to completely just be as disobedient from any kind of truth you you're stepped into the lie you've used pendulum swung away from your direct connection to God and so what I think is important is to talk about dangers like there are dangers inherent in these kinds of any kind of spiritual practice you can you can let in deception and lies so what I think needs to happen is there needs to be an okay way to have that conversation because I think people that have had bad experiences with Christianity gets super triggered at any kind of mention of danger they oh oh that's fear-based oh that's fear-based thinking and it's like okay but fear isn't actually a bad thing I mean you you're afraid as a child so you don't touch the candle and burn your hand you know what I'm saying like we need to be able to have a deeper penetrating conversation about these things without immediately assuming that there are you know agendas behind those statements it should be perfectly fine to say that there are dangers inherent within spiritual practice that should be okay I should be able to say you know what I think it's i think Tarot is evil I should be able to say that you know I think it's a slippery slope you're opening yourself up to potentially evil supernatural forces okay that I believe is true so you know if someone wants to get mad at me because they think I'm calling them evil no I didn't say that you're evil for using Tarot those words never came out of my mouth you know let's let's not get confused here and straw man let's let's let's go okay well why do you think that and have that conversation but people don't want to have conversations they want to jump to conclusions and then nobody's actually getting anywhere closer to the truth because they want to argue yes yeah I'm with you I think for me and what what I kind of teach is that like none of I don't think that any of these things are like evil in and of himself they're just tools you know and how do you use them why are you using them why are you trying to get this secret knowledge secret knowledge is cool there's a way to get it in the scriptures tell you he says Jeremiah 33:3 come on you don't say if you if you come unto me and and and and and seek me I will show you things that you do not know and cannot find out that God is saying if you seek me I'm gonna show you things that are gonna blow your mind beyond your wildest dreams don't go outside of me don't go into these these far out books that are made up by out of the minds of men like there is a bunch of beautiful things that God God he puts the hunger within us to like seek out the deep and things right it's in us for a reason when we try to run from that then there's the pendulum well am i running from the occult stuff I'm drawn to the hidden things well there's a writ as a way to do it it's through God and not outside of him and anytime we try to go outside to do that that's what we find ourselves in trouble because I think that when it comes to idolatry there are dangers inherent with with using physical objects that comes between you and God I think that seeking the face of God doesn't necessarily mean you need a physical object that can draw supernatural attention to it it's like what you start doing instead of talking to God directly you go and you pull your tarot deck out and you start thinking you're talking to God through a tarot deck you know initially when I started reading Tarot I thought okay it's not really anything magic this isn't woo woo I'm just you know memorizing definitions on a card and I'm using it as a creative tool to assess my circumstances or whatever okay so that right there there's nothing magical about that right there's nothing wrong with that but the problem is there's a slippery slope here because what starts to happen you could we all have insights we have our own physical side ease and so that's there and then you start going further and then all of a sudden you start getting information that you know isn't from you where did that information come from did it come from God why would God give you good information through a tarot deck if it's going to take you away from God and make you thinking that the tarot decks gonna give you answers that's idolatry that there's no way that God would be like oh let me give you some godly answers through the tarot deck so that you can ignore me and just go off with you too you see what I'm saying you're opening yourself that was always the rebuke for any of that stuff throughout the Bible right when it came to astrology we see God rebuking astrologers we see God rebuke in the stargazers he's like you're gonna look at the Stars but you're not gonna be able to read them we see God rebuking the worshipers you're gonna sing your songs I'm not gonna listen it's gonna be like clanging cymbals and loud breaths I don't listen to your your your worship songs anymore so so do we like read that and think that God doesn't inhabit the praises of his people anymore that God is not moved by adoration when we lift up a boy sinseong and worship him no it's like when you when your heart is wrong it's the motives in whether it steroid or something like that I'm not really speaking about that for me it's more of the inward things of again that we don't need anything even tarot cards are just something that exists outside of ourselves there may be the tools that I'm speaking of our prayer meditation trance those kind of things are like inherit you don't need anything outside of yourself if you pray there's nothing evil about prayer unless you're praying to a demon right unless you're if you're trying to conjure up demon there's nothing there's nothing you know I'm saying you you could take the you you the intention makes it evil and it comes back to like the scripture saying Father forgive them for they know not what they do for but yeah I mean so the whole thing for me is like trying to like we got a give warning be careful there's a lot of stuff out there a lot of people there's the phrases and things that we can mention and people just fall on the crazy rabbit trails right but at the same time I don't want to stifle exploration like what happened to me stale everything is demonic because with my position your position and many others who who are out there who have bigger platforms and then I do and I'll just say their name to the noted people Steve and bang cars and the other angel card lady they're like anything Doreen Virtue anything supernatural is demonic anything outside of the bible is demonic and that's simply not true again i feel like like we're like forfeiting our birthright when it comes to supernatural abilities again the things you're looking into the you know what what they would call in a new-age ESP extrasensory perception why when i stand next to this person i can feel what they're going through why do i know what this person's why would I sit you know standing next to this person I know what they're thinking I know what they you know there's some crazy stuff but then we it's in the Bible like there's examples all throughout the scriptures of how like Jesus would look at someone and he knew stuff about her we'll say well that was just Jesus okay let's look at the disciples they did it to like they would know things about people and it's a word of knowledge and a word of wisdom obviously it's not called ESP or psychic abilities in the Bible it doesn't use that verbage but word of knowledge word of wisdom or quickening in the spirit that a download from heaven revelation things like that that we we look at Christianity and we're like they looked at something as elementary and so with a look at Hinduism or Buddhism or any of these isms and as something deeper or more evolved and when you mentioned Jesus its laughed at or scoffed out or whatever the case is you know mm-hmm yeah I think it's interesting bringing up some of the other content creators that were new-age to Jesus and how it's almost this this new archetype yeah it's this new archetype of content creator that we're seeing I guess generationally and so I watched a recent video by Stephen banned cars about the evils of yoga and about how when you put your body into certain you know positions you're channeling the Hindu demon associated with like whatever pose like I guess they were saying one of the demons was murdering someone and then you're putting your body in that pose or something and I was having a conversation about this with my mom actually because I'm like you know as far as that kind of content I personally am NOT interested in making that kind of content it's not really my bag but at the same time it's like we all have different voices we are all speaking into different things right and we have different audiences because the people that were speaking to depending on where they're at like what we say is gonna be useful to them or not and on a spiritual journey I think someone just said this in the chat you know we're all at different stages and we have difference and then when I say stages I don't mean this is like hierarchical it's more like we're focusing on different aspects of the truth and so for someone like Stephen ban cars his video on this for him for someone like Stephen who's gone through the experience that he's gone through you know he ran a very successful New Age blog he researched this stuff in depth he knows all about the Hindu gods and you know their different mythologies and stuff like that so for him he has a level of understanding where he probably shouldn't engage in yoga because for him he has gone through what he's gone through he is who he is he went New Age to Jesus he went hardcore New Age went hardcore Jesus now he's like this is probably something I shouldn't engage in now calling out and I guess I need I'm saying this out loud because I've been reflecting on this lately and I know that I've been talking about Tarot in a certain way so it's sort of like his talking about doing yoga is sort of by talking about and so like and I know that I'm gonna be doing a probably a whole series on Tarot so that I can express the full breadth of my opinions here because I think I've been strong and and people are kind of putting me into a certain category now I don't want to do the same thing to Steve and I'm simply bringing this up because I think it's interesting to discuss yeah what about this you have people who are just doing yoga because they want to stretch right and Steve and even brought that up in the video okay but his argument to that was okay yeah that's fine you think you're just gonna stretch but you're actually doing these positions that God doesn't want you to do because he wants you praying to him and you're actually praying to a Hindu God by putting your body in these positions whether you like it or not so there's a level of ignorance that doesn't mean that it's innocence you know it's kind of where Stephens coming from but the way that I look at it is like I mean it's a big question we all can have a different perspective here but it's like you know I think that for someone like Steven telling everybody it's good to have the warning it's good to say hey this is what's going on and this is this here's the information of what of you know my perspective I think it's important for us to say like this is my perspective this is what I've been through and like parroting this back to Tarot it's like for me I just want to let people know about the dangers of it because of what I've been through and how I've seen the slippery slope and I've been on the other end of it and I see how you let the supernatural beings into that arena so there's a level of when you've engaged in the occult and you see the the results of magic and you see the signs and you see the wonders you start to ask yourself who is who can I assign the sign in one or two is the sign and wonder to God or is this I no wonder to something other than God so it becomes a big question and I do think that when we try to have more of an open perspective about it which I know that I'm gonna try to get better at because I know that when I came out against arrows like this cable and I do believe that it's evil but I believe that for a certain reason you could take three words and a lot of people can feel a different thing about those different three words and so I want to have a little bit of grace here for people like Stephen and and Doreen and all these other content creators who are trying to present their perspectives and and they're doing it amazingly and I appreciate the work that they're doing because probably bringing a lot of people to Christ which is amazing I think that if we are a little bit nuanced and I'm gonna try I have to try to get better about this too but if we can just try to be more nuanced and say like this is a perspective I'm bringing into the conversation and let's let's be open to other people's perspectives because when you start hammering down like this is you know my red flag goes up my spidey senses go up like we just need to be able to say like look this is what I'm saying but I'm also I want to hear what your thoughts are not because I want to be rocked and I'm gonna change my opinion but like that we all have different pieces of this puzzle into a larger conversation going back to the pendulum again I'm sure you know there's things for you obviously it's terrible right now I'm sure it's other things too but when I when I came out of like the dark occult stuff and like I couldn't be able around anything like if somebody lit incense around me because we used to because incense was part of our ritual we would burn incense to other gods you know what I'm saying and so when I came out of that I was just so sensitive to anything somebody lit incense I'm like I gotta go I got in it with it would trigger me it because I was hurt and I was cut it would trigger me and remind me of that stuff I mean there's not an end to where do we go to get away from the pagan tree of the other nations and the other cultures and stuff again you know you kind of you have to pick and choose and people will say are you not supposed to pick and choose with the Bible it's we all do and when we don't know what we don't admit to it the Bible says don't mention the name of any other gods out of your mouth and I've already mentioned three or four it said don't even let that that don't even speak their name and to exist don't acknowledge them we have already said their name and then that you know the days of the week Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Thursday is Thursday Fri all of the days of the week are named after pagan gods in the months of our calendar so it's like well how far of this holiness or sanctification do you want to go to like I'm not gonna I'm not gonna mention the name I'm only gonna say the number and then numbers is numerology is 13 I'm not gonna say it today because it's Friday the 13th rootstock the patients were here before the Christians in Hebrews were people the names of our cars the names of our streets are named after all of this stuff and we don't even know it so it's like people are sensitive though they're like so you have to kind of get to where like you know because they're all the Watchmen who was like again everything or everything's demonic the devil has you know he's got it all and so that but the scripture says the earth is given into the hand of the wicked but the earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof right so there's definitely a balance and I've definitely had to come to balance in maybe doing the right knowledge and understanding of what does the Bible say about incense okay the priest would burn incense and offer prayers up to God to Yahweh you know and so it was a sin it was a symbol of the smoke even's symbolically carrying their their prayers and looking at a lot of things that I came out of because they were a new age in demonic oh hold on this is in the Bible and we just gave it or we're giving it to the new age or to the Satanists or to the Buddhists we if you mentioned meditation to a Christian they're freaking out you met it because their mind goes to Transcendental Meditation Buddhist meditation spirit guide you don't say meditation as I hold on the Bible says that were supposed to meditate on the word the sit in silence Jesus would go away for hours and seek the father and meditation and prayer and he would have these encounters man and and so I'm trying to take it back man it's interesting I love your story I love it I can't wait to learn more about you because I feel like you and I have just hours of content to cover it's like it's interesting to think about God revealing himself to you like as you went through your shift and you were coming out and you did the pendulum swing and you're going like okay now I'm paranoid about even saying a day of the week what's beautiful is that God because I remember hitting that point like after my conversion my really intense conversion and I'm going like okay I've got a really like start foundationally from I like your mug start foundationally from the ground and really like learn how to rebuild you know how I'm gonna walk forward and what's really cool about that is God will show us things God will reveal to us personally each one of us which is just beautiful and incredible that that's a truth like a pat in the chat what's up Pat you said your life as an experience made just for you right so God is gonna speak to you directly and let you know what you need to know at that time like we don't have to be paranoid we can just sit in the stillness of our heart and go okay I trust I trust that God is going to show me what is right for me and and God will reveal himself to us at every different stage of our lives it's like for me in my conversion it was like I was able to get rid of and just just just 86 out of my life so many things that were standing in between me and my direct connection to God so that's awesome and well and I can tell that story and I can express that what I've been through to other people now someone else might be at a stage in their life where their God is revealing himself to them in a different way maybe it has nothing to do with anything that I went through maybe God's revealing himself to them through you know their relationship with their husband or wife yeah you know what I'm saying and so like we can we can meet each other and speak into each other's lives in ways that click and God can work through us to help other people and as we're walking this journey being open to there being other lanes and respecting that people are in their lanes it's it's only gonna help us I think refined the conversations where does for you where does the Bible come into that though because you're gonna get that in like the Bible is on the back burner again it's outdated you know it's a copy of Mesopotamian writings and it's a it's a plagiarism of the Sumerian tablets and stuff from Hinduism and in Egypt Egyptology you know it's a short the Allah so the Bible is just kind of like you don't need the Bible you just need to go within and find God so where does Jesus and we're not cuz you gotta love the Bible in with Jesus not the Christ you know everybody but Jesus himself Yeshua whatever you want to call them the the Messiah what does that fit in with hey God speaks to me I'm not convicted by tarot cards I'm not yeah you know there is that the plumb line for you do you are you still gonna filter those experiences and things through the through the scriptures and stuff like that yeah absolutely I think it's really interesting like I went so I went to seminary for a semester and I took a course in church history and I took a course a course called spiritual formation and then I took a course where we were looking at culture and the Bible and Christianity it was fascinating and I guess what's really been interesting to me lately is to go back and look at some of these content creators that are in the New Age that are like super popular and then look at what they say about the Bible and it's like oh yeah well they are wrong like it's it's crazy to see like when you don't study systematic theology you don't study hermeneutics you're not actually like studied and coupled with you haven't read the Bible with an open heart as a child you're gonna there's gonna be so much that you're gonna miss that and I'm not acting stuck up here I'm not saying that I know everything oh you know at all now I've had personal experiences with Christ through the Bible so I mean there's there's an experiential level that I can speak to that again is my experience that I will not throw in anyone's face that's just the reality of my personal relationship with God I do love reading the Bible I any given point I just not right now because I'm I just set my studio up but usually at any given point I've got a Bible within arm's reach I have so many different versions of the Bible I've got a concordance I love looking into the original languages when I'm researching and you know the book that I'm writing really goes into etymology and all of that and it's just it's so much fun and it's fascinating and like you were saying earlier the layers of truth in the Bible it's it's so amazing when you when you go through an experience where you realize some extra layer that you didn't see before and you're going like this is just it's a perfect the design is just so perfect that you you can see how God is revealing himself and and it's it goes deeper and it goes deeper and deeper it's it's been a really fun journey so far and I look forward to you know more and you know collaborating with other Christians like you and and getting to just really experience more of that as a community which I've grown to have in the last year and I know that that's only going to expand and and everything like that what about you what's your experience with the Bible oh yeah that's it I mean it's the plumb line I mean obviously there's probably some some things that are a little bit gray in some areas or whatever and but it's like in for me you know it's all about love and I'm gonna notice you posted the head on on Twitter all these love beams and posts and stuff like it's about love because Jesus's love the Bible says God is love for God so loved the world that he gave and so whatever it's done out of love even with the New Age community that's kind of like our that's what links us like I'm not linked to someone because of their religious beliefs I'm linked to someone by and I'm drawn to someone by their love that the love that they have one for another jesus said they would know that you're my disciples by your love for one of one for another it's not because we have the right scriptures or what is your stance on Trump you know there's a lot of people they want to know my stance on trunk to know if I'm a Christian or not so hold on no no it's about my fruit that's how we judge people by their fruit what what is the fruit that they're producing so for me the Bible is the plumb line which has led me to tear the Bible up and really research it and find out there's some interesting beautiful esoteric occult meaning hidden knowledge in the Bible and we don't have to go outside and look at well you can but whatever you're learning filter it through the Bible is it the Bible promoting it and you find that there's a lot of stuff in there they were having angelic encounters but they said hey don't worship the Angels you know what I'm saying don't don't um you know let anything corrupt you from your faith why are you now preaching about angels and you used to preach about the cross of Christ and it has the ability to set you free from a life of sin and and and and in darkness and stuff and so for me it's always because we always like it's trying to find that that middle passage and and the narrow road and it's hard to walk it because it's it's all that you see the all Christian or all new-age or all want to use the word new-age because this is very old stuff that we're talking about when it comes to the Scriptures anyway there's a there's an inheritance that we have so I try to I try to use the Bible as a plumb line again there's uh in my book like I just I try to give you my personal experience with some of this stuff and then some biblical examples of stuff that we've never heard about that that is amazing beautiful things in the Bible that we need to hear more about it and I'm not the only one there's a lot of more people waking up to this and doing it and it's a I've kind of been I've always been a forerunner but then when it catches on it's like when you have a favorite band you know oh this is a band that I found and nobody knows about this band and now they're huge twenty one pilots or something now they're huge and they're teeny boppers nothing I don't listen to him anymore you know now it's popular or football team that was like the underdog then they won and uh I rode with them because they were the underdogs right and so I've been that way when it comes to you know my my experiences and knowledge of the Bible and things like that and then once it's caught on I found myself like trying to abandon and hold on we've been working hard to have this conversation don't don't because this depend alum run away go the other direction you know so there's a healthy balance there and um it's a lot more people having this conversation it's interesting and the first thing and it but the funny thing is is like and not to be in a private or arrogant way but to understand that God was working on those people at the same time all over the world you know this whole global awakening or spiritual awakening other people were having it too and they were Christians and they were reading their Bible and they were studying this stuff and now I'm seeing all of these content creators and book writers and courses created about the same thing that I've been talking about for years so it's awesome to see like an awakening happening within the Christian realm as well and they're not abandoning their faith in Jesus in the revelation of the cross and what it can do for someone's life yeah and it's beautiful how you talk about love how it all comes down to love because kind of to tie a whole bow on this whole conversation it's like we've been talking about authoritarian leadership and belief structures and how that can become corrupt with deception and when you think about authoritarian structures there is a power that's a stranglehold right that is going to put a stopper hold on the truth so well who do we look to who is our authoritarian leader right and what does that mean you've got authoritarian leaders on the planet now where you see pride greed ego corruption but if you look at Jesus Christ and you look at what he did what was the design it was through servant leadership he gave everything he gave he gave God gave you said God gave it's like it's a total shift in perspective entirely and the freedom comes from that we are that created and that there's there's nothing else but that were the created and we have this beloved relationship with our Creator who has covered us and the design is perfect and we don't have to fret we don't have to stress we don't have to be paranoid we've we don't have everything figured out but a core level work covered and we are loved and the only reason we can love others is because that is God revealing his love to us and us being able to reveal that love to others through him who created us mm-hmm yeah it's so it's so beautiful but I'm with you it's all about love again that's that's what we're known by and nothing else you know people have the Creed's and you know you you know other things connect you because you're like a fan of the same team or something like oh we're from the same state you know it's like I'm connected because I've learned to be able to see that fruit of love and in other people who are even outside of Christianity heck for the most part I'm outside of Christianity I don't believe the majority of like church doctrine here in the Bible Belt you know and we talk about any of this stuff and I'm out it so they don't you know that doesn't that even the term Christian doesn't you no I don't even like 100% identified with that the only thing that really links me to that is knowing that that Jesus is the way the truth in the life and no man comes to the Father but by him and but understanding that there are like his Grace's is far beyond Christianity you know absolutely but through Christ you know what I'm saying in his love abounds through just love itself and and people are following that it's it's really deep it's beautiful but to be able to see him in all things to see Jesus and all things to see love in all things and to be able to say that's that's Jesus because that is love or that's sacrifice oh I can see him in that story or see him in my situation or even see him in my darkness which is the most thing like we all can you know well I get me the other way around we all we all like can see God when we're in the times of darkness right but being in the light and making sure we honor him and stuff and but uh again the Bible being just a very spiritual book and not just a very spirit the most spiritual book let me rephrase that that that you can you can and will ever read because it's about you we think that it's about King David we think that it's about these patriarchs or the Bible but when you read it God is telling your story through the through the lives of these other people and it's it's there's many different levels and ways and facets we read it one day and it was about my again I deal with idolatry right I remember years ago having certain idolatry in my life of what I was gonna do with my life and I had this idea and God was like speaking to my heart nope I'm not doing that I got other plans for you it's like no you opened up doors and this has happened and now I'm excited about doing this and and nope I can't in it so there was something that kind of said into like between me and God this inner struggle they know this is what I'm going to pursue because you told me in God's like no I didn't so I'm reading the scriptures and every time I read about idolatry or the golden calf or the Israelites complaining or looking to other gods instead of Yahweh I'm reminded of like my hidden sin and my turmoil with the creator of what I was going do with my life and and it in this was years ago and nobody told me how to interpret it it was just something that naturally happened through like fellowship with the Holy Spirit and it's begin to go through every facet of my life no matter where I am when I read the Scriptures God has a Rhema word which is a now word for me in this season where I am what's happening my friends my positioning my business my family wherever I am I can read the scriptures and God will communicate his love to me and through me through his word it's the most amazing book ever I know you said that you you didn't have a Bible with you right now but there was a scripture that I wanted to to read I was going to get you to read it but since you don't have it I'll read it here but this is a big one for me when it comes to the occult stuff and just keeping everything plumb line with Jesus and the beauty and in his positioning right knowing who he is versus the other stuff because it becomes it becomes that about these other things but it's Acts chapter 19 verse 18 but it says this was about the Apostle Paul preaching to the Jews and the Greeks I start with 17 but it says when this became known to the Jews in Ephesus they were all seized with fear and the name of the Lord Jesus was held in high honor many of those who believed now came and openly confessed what they had done and a number who practiced sorcery brought their scrolls together and burned them publicly and when they calculated the value of the scrolls that came to the fifty thousand documents in this way the Lord the word of the Lord spread and grew widely in power and so then there's other translations that worded a little bit differently but it's talking about like the sorcerers when they heard the gospel and it pricked their heart like it spoke to where they were when they heard about the Lord Jesus and what he did and and and the message of the Cross and it pricked them and they took all of their curious books that they were making of the books of summoning demons and summoning dragons and Lucifer and Levites all kind of weird crazy far-out stuff out there they could they repent it burnt and they were like confess their sins to have a knowledge it was a trade off yeah I'll gladly give this over for peace I'll gladly trade whatever it is and in their case it was these scrolls and these curious arts and sorceries for us it may be pride it may be hurt it may be anger bitterness jealousy that we lay down in order to receive his burden which is is easy and his yoke is light and so it's well worth it and if nobody's ever encountered that love before man I bid you to come I guarantee you would be the greatest decision that you've ever made in your life and we just try it out just try it out just to to see how how you've tried everything else out why not try this and so it's the most beautiful thing in my life you know absolutely and then of that even stands in the presence of God when you're in the presence of God all of the yeah you know philosophies and everything that you think is I mean if this is a crazy world we live in we're in 2020 there's a lot of stuff out there on the internet there are a lot of books there list there's just so much that you can ingest you know we have audiobooks you can listen to it you know just the amount of information consumption is just at an all-time high so when you confront your creator you confront God and you you are just basking in the capital L light all of the other stuff just goes away you don't even need it it's like you were saying you gladly exchange it over because it's just like okay here yeah you can have that I wanted to read something yeah that's good but we get in trouble with that too you know what I'm saying because I've seen that to be part of my pendulum like okay I'm in this this place where I need God in my life to move and I just I started getting rid of everything like I just started throwing stuff away whether it is I bought a book or I have a questionable CD there was a time where we had like like statues of Jesus and would like a friend of mine brought a wood carving that he got from Colombia as a gift for us and we like you know cross necklaces and anything that was like a graven image we're like getting rid because we just want to be so close to him and we know we're supported by sin so we look we're searching our life to see if it's Christian or not and we're just knowing everything away so it's like I think that God reveals himself to us in those moments like whatever it is that you're engaging in what maybe maybe that's right for you at that time you know I I think that it's it's more amorphous like it's it's a constant uncovering you know but I did want to read something that I found during the time that God was reconciling me to him I came across the book of Romans and it's like I read it for the first time in a new way you know I'm sure that I had heard the book of Romans my whole life but it but it was like Romans really really shifted things for me and there was one particular part when I was going through this transition that really stuck out to me let's see I'm gonna start at chapter 1 verse 24 his invisible attributes namely his eternal power and divine nature have been clearly perceived ever since the creation of the world in the things that have been made so they are without excuse for although they knew God they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him but they became futile in their thinking and their foolish hearts were darkened claiming to be wise they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creator or the creature rather than the Creator who is blessed forever and this really just stuck out to me because and this is very much so related to what you just read because in those moments it's like you don't you don't need to lie you don't need anything but God that's it you don't need idols you don't need anything that that makes you feel a certain way I mean we you live in this world where there are so many distractions there are so many things that we can become obsessed with and addicted to and we just get wrapped up in feeling it's all about how we feel in those moments but it's an emptiness because it doesn't last forever the love of God lasts forever it's this eternal power that is with you forever when you confront that reality you come in contact with that truth it shifts your entire way of being because you know as you go through your day and you're engaging in those moments and you're spending time with people you're working you're playing you're doing whatever you have this underpinning this undercurrent of truth that stays with you and this is your hope this is your faith this is this is your true essence of who you are and that I think is the most important core and when you come to that it frees you and then you can you can continue to deal with like what you and I do where we're kind of going in we're going back into you you go through as a as a warrior and then you come out a warrior for Christ and you're like okay we've we've got this underpinning now now let's go back into the world and let's let's try to continue to figure these things out because we live in in the unknown we're experiencing the unknown there's always more to learn and grow through and having that underpinning of current knowing that I'm covered and that I'm protected and that I'm loved it allows me to be that for other people as well be their protection be their love and and try to be constant in that love and unconditional in that constant love and that right there is is being trying to align yourself with being the face of God and and that's that's all of this is about just trying to align with our eternal creator yep that's the journey yeah that scripture reminds me of Colossians 1 it goes in that's one of my favorite ones where it goes into like the depths of this is who Jesus is versus like he's just another man that became the Messiah or he was just another leader you know but it's like hold on like the the fullness of God was made manifest through him I just read some of it right quick - it's really short it says uh let's see where we can start Colossians 1 I'm gonna start with 12 given thanks into the Father which has made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the Saints in light who have delivered us from the power of darkness and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear son in whom we have redemption through his blood even the forgiveness of sins who is the image of the invisible God the firstborn of every creature for by him we're all things created that are in heaven and that are in earth visible and invisible whether they be Thrones dominions or principalities or powers all the things that were created were created by him and for him and he is before all things and by him all things consist and so this gives you this little glimpse into like the majesty of who he is there all of the powers the Thrones the dominions the demons the darkness the angels all of them must bow to King Jesus he is the head of them all and so just trying to get this idea because it's so confusing seeking truths or truths right what's the truth you said this but so-and-so said that and so people are really finding placed themselves in this place where they're just like confused in the midst of seeking truth in what's his real name is that Jesus is it Yeshua well somebody said if I say Yeshua I'm calling on a demon or like we've all kind of weird theologies out there but it's like really seeing Jesus and having your own encounter with him for who he truly is and and nobody can take that away from you I can talk you out of your theology I can talk you out of your doctrine but you haven't in an encounter with the Son of God or with God himself which is like nobody can take that away from you you opinions change philosophies change new information is provided things change but I think your encounter with with the Son of God that's that's that's uh you know nobody could take that from you and so that's why I'm big on encountering Jesus or encountering God is because like can't take that from you you know absolutely you read my one of my favorite verses I love that God has delivered from the Dominion of darkness and has transferred us into the kingdom of his beloved son Jesus in whom we have redemption through his blood the forgiveness of sins I mean that that burst just wow it's just so powerful was there any mental stuff that you were going through whether it was a breakdown I'm obviously it sounds like a breakdown but was there any like schizophrenia because we know this how these demons operate they get in your mind and so the Bible calls demons as we're let thinking about dark creatures and entities but they're strongholds that live in your mind that when I say the name of Jesus you get angry that's a spiritual stronghold you know that it shouldn't offend you in like there's different things but did you go through any schizophrenia with dealing with any of that stuff or everybody's out to get me I have to run to Jesus I mean that's my story and that's why I'm asking I had interesting I think that for me the whole time I was going through the New Age like when people would try to say that you know people say the craziest things about Jesus like that well okay I don't want to say that I don't I'm trying to be PC here as much as possible but I heard you know a person saying like oh Jesus never existed and like talking about these things and I the whole time I'm like try not to laugh cuz I think it's still you know like it might that was my reaction so I I never had this like negative hateful reaction toward Jesus during the entire time that I was engaged in the New Age and even in the book I wrote which was really new agey it's funny because there's a line in my book that says Jesus is the way it says that it was really interesting because when I was going to edit the book over and over every time I would pass over that it didn't fit with the rest of what I had said but for some reason I couldn't delete it it was it was like I knew that it had to stay there and it's so funny looking back on that now because so it's like it was the truth that was just gonna stay in that book matter what else I did it was just so it's interesting to look back at that but to answer your question directly for me it was like I was being visited in dreams and she's having like nightmares and then I was having just really weird waking sort of I don't even know if they're hallucinations but you know when you're dealing with the occult and you're constantly in that state it's like you're letting in all kinds of static and interference and you think that you're having psychic experiences but I think that for me it was like I had crossed over into the supernatural where I was actually interfacing physically with my physical eyes with I don't know demons whatever you want to call it I don't know but it wasn't positive I'll tell you right now you know some people have these types of negative experiences with things that they call extraterrestrials or they call them demons or they call them ant you know it's just whatever word you want to put on that because I don't want to you know again I'm trying to be PC and leave this open for people's interpretation but is the night that I realized that I was under demonic attack I had I was having this recurring nightmare of being pulled through my bed down into hell by demons and there were angels over my head and their wings were just like flat like they were flying really really fast it was like there was a battle going on for my soul and and demons were trying to drag me through my bed and I wake up and and I would just was cold sweat freaking out like breathing heavy and then I it was almost like I'd be pulled back down into the dream and usually when you wake up and you're breathing heavy and you're like what is going on it's hard for you to go back to sleep no but it was like I was being tugged back under and with this current and it was this recurring dream all night and then I get up and I go into the the bathroom in the morning and I had bruises on my back that looked like finger prints and at that point I was like okay this is way a deeper than I initially thought so I mean that it was all kind of happening all around the same time but I'm pretty confident that I was and that's just one story but yeah it got really scary but when when I came when I came to God the the dream stopped the you know all of that kind of interference going on with my day during my day all of that just just gets wiped clear it's gone now I mean like you deal with other things like after I you know after that then you deal with other waves of demonic attack I think when also like for me being a public person going through this very publicly yeah you know Satan doesn't want to lose same doesn't want you to come out on the other end and have things to say against people that are you know that he really really likes where they're at in their life so I I think that there was definitely a layer of probably not only demonic attack but there I think there was also witchcraft involved against me so like a cult attack yeah yeah yes real man you know my story very similar you know going crazy and trying to open up trying to contact these other entities and doing rituals that were in like meditations of how to contact them through guided meditations and books and I would do so many of them because like none of them were working but I knew that was real because I had encounters so I was like okay this didn't work let's try this one and we were just like all of this stuff and and and where I was that spiritually it was a bad place to a lot of drinking and smoking pot every day and stealing robbing people in gang affiliation a lot of bad stuff and then mixing occultism and this trying to contact entities in the same time so like nothing worked until they all worked at the same time like there were just one day - I was sitting on the couch and I was pulled into a trance by their will and I couldn't understand what they were saying there were colors and shapes and voices and whispers and I begin to go mad and I would come back to my body and I'd be pale shaking crying - trying to catch my breath because I didn't know how to breathe they were come in and pull my consciousness out of my body and touch realm and it was scary I didn't know they're speaking like ancient languages and stuff and I'm seeing them in the house I'm being pulled you know we're watching a TV show or a movie and I'm just pulled in this freaking trance and my health started to go downhill sort of coughing up blood every day and go I'd go out to public and we try to order something to eat and I couldn't look people in the face because I heard like when it was probably really heightened senses of the psychic ability stuff or where but like demons were messing with it to where like I knew what the people were thinking everybody was looking at me and it was just system and I was a teenager I don't think I was 15 when this was half and you know I was gonna I was gonna mad but before that I knew about Jesus I had been a Christian a couple years before that but fell away to get gotten deeper into the occult and the scripture says that once you have once you you're you're dealing with demons and you get free of those demons of those spirits when they leave Jesus says when they leave a person they go out to dry places and they seek seven other spirits stronger than themselves and say hey I got cast it out but I want to go back will y'all help me get back into the house that I once dwelt in which is your body and so they say ok so I get seven stronger spirits than themselves and they come back to that vessel and if you have if then when them demons leave you have to do the inner work and clean out your mind sweep the house and if the demon comes in the house is swept clean his bed is not there anymore then they can't get in but the Holy Spirit exactly fill it with the Holy Spirit you're right if you don't need the scripture says that the state of that person is worse off than before and so that's what happens and so that's what happened to me I was just dabbling with the occult as a kid Wow got born again radically saved and but then turn my back to it to you know get into witchcraft and occultism and and we like I've interacted with beings other realms like that have crossed over you know what I'm saying and like they physically showed up and so that like lit this weird fire within me to like continue to pursue the occult because there was some type of power there you know that that I can summon entities or in it to show up on command and do things for me but there wasn't what they said that they were you know and they always demand something when you try to make pacts with those entities they demand something you know they want something from you or whether it's you wearing a trinket or an idol in your home or whatever the case is that you have a alter a lot of these entities want most of them want to take up residency in your mind and they want to live in your mind just let me just let me live in your mind you know and you become you know what the Bible calls demonized or possessed with unclean spirits and you have these strongholds in your life and don't even know it yeah wow that is an incredible story yeah and that's the thing a lot of a lot of people who don't have the experiences that you've had or that I've had or that other people have had they don't personally think it's dangerous because they think this is what they'll say this is what I've heard people say to me oh well you just didn't do your your clearings and you didn't put the the white bubble of light around you and and you you know and and what my response to that is oh I was doing all of those things all those things you read on the internet I was doing those things too but what you realize is that there are pattern I'll be a broken record there are powers out there that are more powerful than you that's just the reality they need a host they're not more powerful than God they're not more powerful than Christ that's why it's so funny that's what the lady told me so we you know we stole a bunch of witchcraft books so we never bought books we had about 40 or 50 books at a whole library but we'd still them we'd wear eye jingoes or whatever it is nineties and we'd steal witchcraft books and obviously that was some of the energy I was dealing with too still in it so we took all the books we stole it and we brought them to the witchcraft store born again and we wanted to see if we can get some money for it if we could sell it back to them because we wanted to buy Bibles so we took the books and we still hate and they gave us like $20 for like 50 books yourself it was enough to buy two Bibles and I think a Christian worship CD and a VOD CD I knew that p OD was a Christian band and but the lady told us we told us like she's like why are you getting rid of these books it was like because I had an encounter with Jesus and I was like telling her what happened and and my story and she said what your person would say oh you didn't do the inner work you didn't do that you have to shield yourself you didn't shield yeah you got psychic okay whatever whatever you can have the shielding like I need Jesus like trying to coach me on how to do it I'm like it's crazy well and again not to out anybody maybe maybe we should kill the magic though when it comes to idolizing people putting them on the pedestals and stuff you've seen I've seen a lot of stuff about like some people that I've looked up to in these movements dr. Steven Greer which got me into a lot of that stuff for contacting entities and aliens and stuff and ce-5 initiative which I still like some of it but we've heard stories about like he's a different person off-camera and I know there's many people in the Christian community who are loving light but off-camera there's some of the meanest most bitter people you ever meet but when the cameras on high everyone prays what is that is did you experience anything like that as far as like inappropriate stuff or sleeping around or any it was you you know any dark stuff that you encountered that the people we're doing or was it just your own inner journey or was there really like dark stuff going on that you that that they were involved in I'm not gonna throw shade at anyone um I also don't really engage in that kind of slinging online because I think that we all have weaknesses and we have you know parts of our personality that I don't know I don't I don't I don't really want to touch any of that but I did meet dr. Steven Greer a couple times I used to live in Virginia and I'd see him at the coffee shop he seemed more like like a really nice guy I met him and his team and I just off the top of my head he seemed like a nice guy but but I think to speak to the greater issue here because I think that there's a instead of getting down in the muck and kind of like slinging shade I think we can have sort of a larger more appropriate or mature conversation and just say that when it comes to receiving information and engaging in pursuit of information there are a lot of distractions out there and there are lots of addictive threads of research that can get you spinning and wheels not really taking you anywhere and so what I will ask I will ask a question you know when you're going to research something ask yourself like where is this gonna lead me what is the overall message here what is it that I'm really sinking seeking so there are you know you mentioned ce-5 and there was a question in the comments earlier that this is a perfect time to get to it but just ask the question was about people that are trying to seek out and call out to UFOs or ETS or whatever and and what my my perspective is on that now she's got a really loud ring imager okay so in my experience with this concept of c-5 and for those of you who don't know basically going outside with a group of people and trying to call down UFOs or a te tease is that how you would define it yeah about that okay a lot of these circumstances that I would see people do this in they were actually engaging in occult practices before so I'm wondering like what is and this is I'm just saying a question I'm not making any judgments my question is what is the relation between going out with a group of people and calling out UFOs or ETS and occult practices like channeling and you know table tipping or you know a lot of these people will go into meditative States and then call out to whatever entities are around and pull them down now you got to kind of ask yourself like when you're just calling to anything in the your broadcasting with a group of people and calling down anything that will respond you know some people will disagree with me because they don't believe in evil but I do think that there we should have a little bit of discernment when we go out with groups of people and just call out to the universe hey if you're around I want to see something because you want to see something the whole idea here is that you want to be entertained you want to see something with your eyes that is going to allow you to go huh see there's something unexplained here and then you see it's called a sign in a wonder and then it hooks you and you want more and now you're going like what does all of this mean and then you get trapped in this thread of a research of information processing about something that you just said the demons want to take up place in your mind right that's what brought came to mind when you said that it's like they want to take your time they want to take you they want to harvest your consciousness they want to waste your time they want to take you away from anything that is actually going to be beneficial for you or healing so you can get looped up in these this constant state of processing and feeding upon information meanwhile you're actually being spiritually harvested and you're not going anywhere fast um I talked about ce-5 a lot and my music and I've got a whole verses dedicated to it you ain't living you ain't never been alive till you're sitting in the field and try to seee five hands up as close to the night sky don't doubt just believe see and fly by initiate contact of the fifth kind Light Beings 5d and beyond they've been watching over you the whole time seeing synchronicities follow the signs don't doubt just trust and you will see aliens angels Elohim ETS in the Bible wrote in Chariots of Fire angelic benevolent Enoch and Elijah didn't taste death death because they were swept away in a flame by night and a cloud by day what's next is communication and - it's a telepathy and raise vibrations and so I've got I've got a lot of stuff the ce-5 movement and if you listen in there you heard me talk about the angelic so my introduction to ce-5 wasn't even through dr. Greer or any of the new ways guys it was - and a guy named Patrick Cooke who had I was having dreams about aliens and things like that and I was just trying to find out if there's anything in the Bible and stuff and I found this website back in the day which was amazing Bible UFO dot-com by Patrick cook and for me being in the church is starting to research aliens and all of these things I found that website and it was I mean just tons and tons and tons of scripture references and historical references from the 1300s and all of these like so-called UFO encounters but he was a Christian but he was the first one that kind of talked about the alien thing in a angelic way versus a demonic way most of the Christian people are gonna tell you that aliens or demons stay away kind of thing right so he was the first one I had a website and he would do interviews he's been on coast to coast he's not with us anymore but my book has a quote from him at the beginning I quoted him but it really lit a fire within me so it was that website and then a video I seen of a guy named prophet Yahweh I don't know if you've ever seen this video but then this was back man this was like 2010 2009 2010 watch this video it's just old black guy just in all white and the news covers him so the new that news crew comes out is like there's a man here claims that he can summon UFOs with the by using the Hebrew version of the Bible and I watched this video clip and then he comes out there and they're in this open field and the news crews there and he's like yes I can summon you know the the the the angels of the most high will show up on the show up on cue for me and and he pretty he gets on his knees and he prays and he holds his hand up in the air and he says Yahweh so that these people would think that I'm not crazy will you send your angelic messengers and let them see you are who you say you are and you are watching over us and sure enough there was this little you know light during the day it was like this orb that was way out there that appeared and everybody at the news station was like oh wow it happened and they called the airport to see if there was anything flying by and he blimps anything and it wasn't so the Prophet Yahweh thing like did something to me oh wow and then I found out Steven Greer and that kind of thing so a lot of my encounters went from seeing that and going from a biblical response of in prayer time okay God let me see your messengers let me see the Elohim in the Bible it talks about the Seraphim these are beings that are made out of light the fire of God and when they travel back and forth there they look like fire if they're out there and I mean just stargazing an odd wonder of God and who he is and just looking up and saying okay God if they're out there let me see and I'm kind of begging but it was going through God my father who loves me you know who's not gonna send me if I ask for as fish he's not gonna send me a serpent if I ask for bread he's not gonna give me a stone so my father if if your messengers are out there if they are traveling back and forth from heaven to earth as Enoch says as it talks about in the Book of Daniel in some of these other scriptures that says his ministers or a flame of fire let me see them and and finally the stinging out there long enough by myself I started having these encounters that were very similar to the ce-5 initiative stuff where God would just allow me to see these crazy things in the night sky of them flying out of stars and into stars and showing up and fleets of what we would call UFOs or angels in the sky so for me it's always been an angelic thing but the only person in the there is no context in the Christian community of what what I was seeing you know so I kind of got into the ce-5 and these are the Pelagians or the Andromeda or whatever versus just the angels or messengers or Seraphim or whatever so like if I was having encounters that were blowing my mind but were really drawing me closer to the Father it made it more real for me that like heaven was a place out there versus this imaginary land that we go when we die we're just translated but night no heaven exist past what we call outer space is to heaven where the most high is that and the angels travel back and forth from heaven earth and I'm reading this stuff in the scriptures so that was my encounters but I was having so many that would just blow in my mind and you know it was a beautiful experience for me that's cool the other day I guess was the first of January of this year I hadn't had a lucid dream in a really long time I usually have really really lucid dreams all the time and I hadn't had one in like a year and on the first of the year I was laying in bed and I was like man I just want to make sure I'm on the right path God like you're a sovereign God and I just want to do I just want your will for my life and I'm like writing this book and I was like sorry I was starting to sort of relaunch my channel and I said you know it'd be really cool if you just send me a sign in a dream your sovereign you don't have to but if you did it would be so cool to like have a sign and just know I'm on the right path and that night and an angel or this light being this white being just appeared in the middle of my dream and I went completely lucid and I'm standing there and I'm like oh my gosh I asked for a sign from God and there's just being stood in front of me it was really cool and it's a agile and it just disappeared Wow yeah and then the next day I was like thinking about like what does that mean and then that night I thought well I wonder if there's anything about agility in the Bible and so I looked up agility and it occurs in three places but the the verse is basically about God making the feet like the feet of a deer and I looked at I'm like what does that mean as basically like God has you covered like you don't have to know all of the ways that you're walking because he's gonna like make sure to put your feet on the high places you know it's like a really cool message and I'm like man and just that alone that revelation like and you know maybe maybe it wasn't a sign from God maybe it was just a dream maybe I just put things together that didn't mean anything or whatever you want to say which fine I'll accept that but at that moment it was like everything changed and I was like I had that confidence that that confidence in me and I'm like I think I can do this because covered by God I don't have to be so worried about you know what's gonna happen and how people are gonna perceive it I'm just gonna move forward I know that God has my blind spots covered and at that moment that's when I was able to like have the confidence to relaunch the channel and everything so it's kind of interesting like you're talking about these experiences that you've had that made you feel closer to God and that's the same thing that happened for me recently where it's like you you you get some kind of sign and it makes you feel closer to God like that's that's great that's cool you know yeah it's so awesome man it's like again taking back our power like the New Age gets to have all the fun no no they don't you know what I'm saying I'm with you no did I think they the one who thought they stole from us man you know what I'm saying of all of it the Stars and it's you know astrology or you know Astro theology that stuff is taken from us like yeah I believe in Astro theology and Santos Bonacci and Jordan Maxwell cuz it you don't hear many Christians talking about it they're starting to now though praise God and they're doing it from a biblical perspective but the Bible talks about the mazzaroth and the zodiac and Orion and the Pleiades and all of the stuff is mentioned of in the scriptures for like it's almost like God's calendar that's telling the story as we make our way through through the zodiac every year and just to say that we can't look into any of it or whatever the case is it's so ludicrous especially when the Bible is full of it and it's so beautiful again you don't have to abandon your faith to like look into any of these spiritual abilities because they're all throughout the Bible they're your god-given birth rights you can hear what people are thinking it's called discernment of spirits it's called it's called different things but learning how to focus it and and harness it and use it for the good of mankind and give honor and glory back to the one who is communicating to you through it in the first place you know what I'm saying of using our senses and all that stuff it's beautiful man there's nothing that tops it and so I get convicted and get into idolatry when I try to go outside of I started looking up these researchers who were talking about it more because there was no Christian stuff but again now there's a lot though I'm really awesome everybody listened to me look up somebody named Chris Carter I interviewed him on the podcast again I mentioned Gil Hodges in the next the next stages or Kingdom talks and they have a podcast like this with Christians and and they don't interview any new agers it's all Christians and it's all supernatural otherworldly like amazing encounters of angels and God expressing his love to them through Christ through other means but it's all Christian so there is no like you know weird occultic practices going on they do it in the confines of a biblical worldview which is what I try to do so there's a lot more people who are having this conversation and it's it's awesome and I'm glad that now I'm able like Christians or one wanting to talk to me now just like back in the day I had to go talk to the New Ager so I had to be there now I choose to be there as well but I love getting with my peeps you know and talking about Jesus and how beautiful I started talking to new agents about how beautiful Jesus is and they're like the hell are you talking about they don't know so I there's a hope that that they'll pick up something or listen to the conversation or you know and they do you know what I'm saying reflecting the love of Christ and they find their first love or meet them for the first time and it's worth it all the New Age mumbo jumbo and conversations about reincarnation they all become worth it when that one person responds to the message of God's love and it comes into that relationship with Christ it's worth it to me well thank you for your work I really appreciate it and thanks for having me on your show this
