In this episode of The TruthSeekah Podcast TruthSeekah is joined by Zadok the Godhop MC as they discuss his new album entitled Salt, the Hebrew Israelites and faith.
As a minister of the gospel and kingdom artist Zaydok has dedicated himself to the teaching and exaltation of Jesus Christ and the gospel. A veteran of 20 years, he has experienced recognition in his native city of Buffalo NY and the upstate NY region as a talented rapper. In 2007 he made a decision to leave his street infused, self glorying rap persona behind and dedicate his talent to giving that glory to God. He formed a 5 man crew called Sons of the King. In ’09 after that group dispersed he started to form relationships with other local Christian artists. In 2014 he and some of those artists came together to form Rebel Against the World which is a support collaborative for the building up of upstate NY Christian rap artists. Joining HogMob in June of 2016 he hopes to help edify and enhance the ministry with his gift to evangelize God’s word and represent the true love that the disciples of Christ are commanded to exhibit in the world as representatives of him.

into today's discussion my friend Zadok what's going on my brother welcome a peace King how you doing I'm doing well man you on the road yes sir I'm on the road with my beautiful wife who helps me live my beautiful life on our way south man leaving upstate New York for the weekend ago giblet family been locked in for three months up here so we don't go south where they're a little bit they're a little bit more open yeah we opened up on the first some of the restaurants sit in and I was in there ASAP let's sit down enjoy my Mexican food yeah oh yeah everything's it's starting to balance out I feel I mean who knows what's gonna happen in the future but they're letting us get some a sense of normality I guess right here so it's very strange times for sure very strange times that we're living in man but uh you're trying to bring some hope to the midst of midst of all of this with all the confusion and chaos and conspiracy theories and stuff like that that's going on obviously we living in uncertain times for sure but that's always we've always been there just people couldn't see it so for you like I'm saying trying to navigate through all of this stuff Kovan in that kind of thing what has been like something that's been on your forefront is it trying to keep people focused on Christ on and stay in the scriptures versus watching all these documentaries and you know the Antichrist and the end of the world and we fixin to die and all that kind of crazy stuff what's been your main focus lately well my main focus always is God's Word not God's Word doesn't necessarily give us an everyday blueprint of what's going to happen at every moment but as we live our moments the base foundation that we look from that we think from and that we perceive from is from the Word of God you know the word of the prophets and the apostles and so I take comfort in this bro some stuff that is conspiracy for people right now some stuff that is all pay attention to what they do into the food pay attention to these immunizations and stuff where I come from bro we was on this 20 years ago and those who know me like that they know you can go back and find proof of me being on the Internet back in 2008-2009 talking about the necessity to control more of your own food that you take in if all you do is spend money on food because you don't control resources then when things happen the worry is Morsi it's not that if anything happens that the servants of God are impervious from fear that we're impervious from worry but we may have less fear and less worry because as description says to so many could fall at your right hand and your left hand but the trouble won't come near you but the worry still is in us having a see what happens around us because we're still worried for those who we love so I'm not heavy into conspiracies I'm just into obeying God and letting the chips fall where they may because these 40 years of my life has gotten me to this point you feel me I'm with you bro like uh you know seeing it coming on it was funny because like here on the podcast I've been like even before like Cova was a thing and before we got it like weeks eight maybe even months leading up to it I found myself talking a lot about how how we need to stay away from conspiracies and these endless questions and debates and stuff like that and how they were unhealthy how they keep us focused on fear and you know the scripture tells us how how we should think if there's anything pure virtuous anything noble think on these things versus what might be or what is around the corner and it's usually something evil or nasty so I found myself before we got into this doing all these videos for some reason and then when it hit there's an explosion of conspiracy videos and now everyone is an expert and everyone's looking into like you said stuff that we were preaching on the street and teaching in 2008 coming from the Hebrew Israelite movement and things like that this was something that they were big into back in the day 9/11 was big you know what I'm saying teaching it on the streets and and all of this the Illuminati they would teach that kind of stuff so now people are just now getting into some of this stuff and so for me I kind of seen the comments like I know where this leads you know what I'm saying so I've been able to kind of Shepard people to keep their focus on God keep their focus on Christ staying in the scriptures - you know I'm saying to keep your peace and to remain in that the solace of God man so you know I have a saying truth that this so-called information age doesn't equal the age of wisdom there's a lot of information social media people people now don't have to sit and have teachers and don't have to sit and be challenged I'm not saying they don't but what social media in the end the web does it causes people to Wikipedia and Google everything and they just remember it and regurgitate information and act as if they understand in our well-schooled and points in situations and that's not the case and so while people call this the age of information we have all of this you know the Library of Congress is trying to digitize every book in the American arsenal that's fine but it doesn't mean wisdom information doesn't always equal understanding you can have a lot of information and that's what these conspiracy theories do there's an interesting scripture where Solomon talked about he said when you have a great house and many servants don't walk through your house trying to put your ear to hear everything that's being said because you being so nosy you might hear your servant cursing you and then you're hard to feel some kind of way because you never know the effect you have on people sometimes you might have to you know you you might have to be harsh with people you might have to do things a certain way and if you just want to hear every single thing I want to know everything people say it you're gonna wind up hearing something you really don't want to hear and a lot of people if they want to get into conspiracy theories then I would say if you're willing to do that and you can sit down and watch site guys so you can go and watch this that in the third you could go to Gaia and watch all of these things and why don't you sit and and come to some Bible studies and sit for a couple hours and fellowship and ask questions about God's Word because you giving everything a shot people want to give everything to show except the Word of God this demon uh kind of been talking about that a little bit too as far as uh you know you're not supposed to hear that kind of talk you know and it's you know in the scripture this you know Solomon seeking wisdom is ie be careful you know what I'm saying because you're not supposed to hear that gossip about you there's a reason they don't tell you to your face there's a reason and I've had this crazy thing happened to where I've been on the phone with people and then they hang up but the phone doesn't hang up and as soon as they think that they hung up they start gossiping about me or that's true seeker man he's shot out man he's Baba Baba and I'm like oh Lord like I wasn't supposed to hear that you would have never said that to my face but when you hear that gossip as a reason in the scripture says it wisdom because it messes with you you're not supposed to hear that stuff that's right and so I don't think we need to know everything people becoming too desensitized to too many things I don't think I don't I'm not clicking every clip of some fight some shooting you know that this young man got unfortunately he got killed by police in Minneapolis a few days ago and I was hurt by it because not only was he an african-american like myself but he was also armed a Christian he was there in minute he was in Minneapolis for some church training because he's known all down from Florida and all that he was a brother who always volunteered himself at various community outreach events so it hit home a little closer than usual because of him being african-american but grow I could not bring myself to click the clip to watch him gasp him embed for his life we don't need to see everything we're becoming desensitized I want to be appalled at death this unnormal thing that we go through because of sin I'm appalled at hurt and you know at seeing young women in the middle of the street fighting and beating each other up I'm a Paul that's seeing motorcycle gangs get in shootouts and everyone get they phone out and record it while they duck it I don't want to see that bro and so I think that even we have to be careful on what we take into our eyes and into our eye which lets stuff into our heart as much as our mouth let's food into our gut you know yeah I've been talking about this too like you know a lot of people will talk about how like you know you're not supposed to let your urine do your good works and be seen in front of people right there's a lot of videos of people feeding the homeless and and and giving homeless people money and giving large donations that uh when they go out to eat and stuff like that and they'll film it and put it on the internet and people are yeah you're not supposed to be filming that that that's you know you're not supposed to let your right hand know what your left hand is doing but I'm like I'm inspired when I see those videos because I've seen so many videos of hey pull your phone out there fixing a fight hey pull your phone out this guy's finished shoot this other guy in the head or whatever foolishness they've kind of made if there's challenges that that the world has made that they beckon other people to go and there was a knock out challenge to go find a random go find a random person and knock them out and film it so I'm like if they're doing all of this wickedness and making it famous on camera let's go out let's make it famous to bless somebody let's make it famous to go out and do good deeds and the scripture does say to let your light shine before all men so that they can see your good deeds and glorify your father in heaven so I'm like let's look for ways to go out and bless people and make that popular cuz you know I'm saying like if you helpin somebody that person don't care whether you filming it or not I have you help if you go up to a homeless person to give them a thousand dollars they don't care whether you got your video camera out or not make that stuff famous you know I'm saying make righteousness famous make that cool because it is yeah I understand both sides of that argument and I guess at the end of the day the intent in the heart of the individual if you're doing it to be seen of men yeah hopeful for glory sake and it is what it is but if you want someone to be encouraged now yo people not seeing enough good and I think this is something people should see there who am I to judge you know what I'm saying yeah yeah it kind of works both ways for sure I think it's a matter of the heart but I mean we're kind of kind of doing that with with the hip hop right like something that you know people look at as evil I mean they're still even people like in like old school people in the church who say you know God can't use hip-hop and yet there's no such thing as Christian hip-hop that's an oxymoron and all of these kind of things and it's like no God is alive and and and he's using Christian hip-hop to go into communities transform lives and to present the gospel and in ways like that so it's look what the enemy meant for harm you know we can take it and in turn use it for good and that's definitely happened with Christian hip-hop and music and things right I agree I agree you and I are living proof it's not only allowed us to come into platforms and into arenas that we may not have usually walked in but I also get therapy by it knowing that every time I open my mouth in my art form I'm giving glory to God and I'm trying to uplift and encourage my neighbor we come from a culture where the dark yeah okay you hear me still yeah I got you guys to go in okay cool no I just my phone rung and I hate when it does that sometimes it knocks me out but um rap music can be used apparently it's not just that the artists who have responsibility but the consumer as well people are clamoring for duck to be entertained by darker elements of man's thought that is uh that is shared by his mouth as Christ said in the fornication and when you can listen to some rap music what are you hear I was even listenin to country music recently guy talking about going to the bar meeting some girl and they having a good time that night then getting in his pickup truck and they going to the overwatch cliff somewhere and they're gonna make out really that's fornication so even though it may not seem as brash to people that thing is coming to a lot of music you know I remember my mom and him used to say oh that stuff y'all listening to that ain't music all that nonsense and all that violence this is music I'm like well who was was Marvin Gaye talking about his wife when he was saying and let's get it on was Teddy Pendergrass talking about his wife when he said turn out the lights you know I forget the singer had a song called I'm the cleanup man meaning when men treat they women wrong I'm the guy who come behind them and have an affair what they wife and make her feel good all of this is wicked hip-hop just gets more - you know R&B you know it will easily whether it's R&B country pop you can sing a song that has a great message how so long we'll turn around and tell us we can't rap and give good morality and good substance and thought-provoking edifying of words and concepts through the music you and I are living through for that along with many others you mentioned you know this is different entertainment and stuff like that so I know there was a time when I took myself really seriously like as far as my ministry because I knew the power my mandate you know and what we're doing with the music and things like that and and I didn't want to use that that term entertainer entertainment I wanted you know I wanted to you know we it's so much more but when you look at it the power that Entertainment has over people to influence and to sway the thoughts and the perceptions and to release you know notions and personas into the land bro like entertainment is a powerful was there ever a time or do you have like what's your relationship with your music your ministry being a form of entertainment well I don't mind it because the word entertainment in space and hold their attention and get them to focus on a point you want to make that's what the movie does I want you to cry because of this movie you know this young girl was kidnapped and she eventually got away from her kidnapper and in the end she lived something like that right it entertains you meaning it brings you into the narrative so that it can make the point and it actually complain your emotion so I don't get to choose who who sees what I do as mere entertainment because once I had a teacher who had this statement and I use it all the time shout-out to him he said if you make a cake and put it on the table once people get a slice they get to tell you how it takes you you you it to you I made a good cake and put it on the table some people will take a slice and say yo this is too rich this is way too sweet some people will be like oh I don't like this at all and to some people it tastes great so on my new album that's actually shameless plug I have a new project dropping tomorrow on our digital platforms called assault and you could go anywhere and listen to it but if you want to download it you could get it for free at hog mob h OG mo be VanCamp commie you could get the entire project for free as a download arm in the intro I say um you would you would be wasting your time trying to tell me God ain't real and he ain't merciful I appreciate the folks who listened when I let the verses go some of y'all are edified some of you are entertained some of y'all offended either way for me is personal so people are going to choose oh this is just some great music and they just entertain but eventually it will turn into edification and now it becomes more of that for them so I'm not looking to only entertain them but anyone who would put music or fill out under and would ignore the fact that what you're doing is you're putting it in the realm of plateau of a presentation that people would call entertainment then I believe you'd be fooling yourself it is more than that for me it is ministry for me it's a service I'm hoping it will edify the save and it will encourage the loss to consider Christ but I know that for a lot of people when they first get it it's just gonna be like anything else oh I like to beat this kid got skill oh this is pretty good and then they start to get they hear the message and through time what was just mere entertainment becomes actual important intake of something good and so I just pray that in the end if it does start out as entertainment that it will end up as editing yeah and I know you know I mean you've got your own life that you can look back you know what I'm saying the own examples that you have and then you've been doing it so long that the testimonies that you get of lives that have been impacted and changed because of just simply music you know what I'm saying it's the mess it's the message that's in the music but um I remember years ago we were in Christian a hardcore singing doing hardcore metal music and it's in in you know we would go to all the shows and it was all the big bands and in at the time all of the big underground bands were Christian bands and some of them weren't just like all the way open with their message there was just like it was weaved throughout their music right and I remember this one kid who would come to every show and he'd go see all the big bands and stuff like that he'd come see our stuff and we'd hang out at shows and I and I exchanged numbers with him and one day he called me and everything just clicked he's been going to all these shows and buying the merch and listening to all the albums and one day it clicked that they were all singing about Christ even though they were talking about quite who Christ is to them their own struggle metaphors of Christ I mean just whatever just that their daily struggle and then looking to a higher power God and it clicked for him and he's like man God has been pursuing me through this music and I didn't even know and he gave us a lot to the Lord like you know I'm saying he made a decision and it was there the whole time through the music that was that was so powerful man and so uh you know say music is powerful entertainment is powerful people want to look at it like we're just because I think even in the church around me Christian rap early on we were just kind of call it on sometimes to come entertain the children you know something for the little kids and stuff you know even let the look you know we I think we write the music for the D boys we write the music for the drug dealers we you know all that kind of stuff but then we get to the churches and it's just a bunch of little you know toddlers or you know kids in elementary school and where we have these really deep aggressive stories and stuff and metaphors and wordplay and it's just these little kids and stuff it's like man we got a you know I've definitely been through that in certain churches right you know and outreaches and stuff and uh but you got to understand that the Internet and the power of music like he goes out man and it does what it's supposed to do you know yes right that's right so you mentioned seven man how did you hook up with hog mob oh you know what's interesting back in 2014 2014 late 2014 no no no no I'm sorry back in September of 2013 I went to this event in New York City call it Kingdom Choice Awards okay put on by uh our kingdom time media shout out to my bro Marcus hall these remember the narrator of that platform and there's the and it still happens every year it's one of the dopest events that happens that just gives glory unto God in it and gives us a pat on the back to our fellow laborers and the music rail videographers stuff like that promoters and I went into this eventing was inspired so when I came back home me and some of my brothers got together and before this uh this we we formed a little platform called I see you and you know and I see you is when someone in with heavy trauma to the body they you know they get worked on by doctors and then they get put in the intensive care unit to save their life and so we took the concept to put on events and use the event to say yo the hearts of men are hurting and just as you were waxing poetic a minute ago about the power of this thing we're doing we know that through this art form through live concerts and and having the right host and bringing good artisan we can encourage people in the church because one thing that people forgive bro is that that just because you come unto Christ now I believe that Satan fight comes at you harder he want to see if you like wheat like Jesus told Peter because he knows how good of the soldier you were for him he wants you back so we need to remember that all the gifts of Christ are for the body and not just for us to show those outside who we are in the Lord but to make sure that we keep the Brotherhood tight in the body tight just as my hand is tight to my wrist in my arm and so as we were started we started doing these Christian hip-hop events every three months my guys sail out a corner whose part of God over money shadow got over money say Lockhart me this was late 2014 he said hey bro I got a big homie of mine coming out - coming out this summer which was the summer of 2015 he's coming out this summer to do um two weeks of touring on the East Coast he asked us to hook him up with a couple of people who solid out here he said you wanted the only people I thought that I can trust that you and bro would probably get along so I said well who is he he said his name is seventh row in 2014 I hadn't heard of seven he I said well send me some leads he sent me some links I checked there now I was like wow this dude is pretty dope and I really became impressed his music was good but when I saw a clip of bro doing a presentation of the gospel he's preaching the gospel in Australia and you know seven comes he will he was formally out of gang culture and so for someone to have that Street urban look like him but when I heard him preach the message of salvation I knew that the Holy Spirit was dealing with his brother I told se la so you'll give me his number me and Sam got on the phone to make a long story short we first time talking on the phone we spoke for about three hours and at the end the last 10 minutes of that conversation we talked about him me possibly bringing him to my city that coming summer that's how I met seven in the rest is history I didn't know when I met this guy that we will wind up being brothers in love in Christ and that he would about a year and a half later asked me to consider joining hogg mob ministries to use my gifts and talents that he had perceived I had after we have built the relationship for almost two years but it's been a great experience that's awesome and I can attest man just being on the phone with seven he's one of the most down-to-earth yet still deep spiritual rooted in the word dude you'll ever meet that's that's how that goes if that goes a long way of being down-to-earth and still being one of the brothers but yet still being deep cuz usually you only get the deep far-out spiritual you don't say in theological people and they only want to stay in the word and ba ba ba ba but he's he's uh he's down to earth to like you know what I'm saying so I'm you know I met seven and I had some long conversations with him as well and I can definitely attest and then him preaching the gospel man again with you I think I'm more of a fan of poly of his preaching than its music as well you know what I'm saying cuz like just because there's a whole different level he demands your attention right you know we've been to many of those and hey especially with young people teenagers it's hard to keep their attention short attention spans and so yeah there's a bunch of clips of him online preaching which is pretty pretty amazing um let's talk about this little bit too we talked a little bit about it the Hebrew Israelites I think you said you kind of were like raised up in that as a religion maybe as a religion and then as a nationality a lot of people want to point that out that it's that there's two different things or they are the same thing or whatever so I I ran with the Hebrew Israelites for some time I kept kosher and quit doing all the so-called pagan holidays and those kind of things and stuff for about eight years or so and I recently come full circle to where now I'm I can you know go to Thanksgiving and Chris in certain celebrate Christmas with the family and instead of like staying at home and fasting and not opening presents and all that kind of stuff they try to give me a present I'm trying to give it back to them you know crazy crazy stuff took it took it serious for sure anyway I'll tell you a little bit about that but as far as you you're concerned with your involvement with the Hebrew Israelites and just kind of just kind of talk a little bit about your Genesis and then where you are now with the whole thing well for me at about the age of eighteen by the time I was 18 I unfortunately experienced about a good five or six individuals I know personally as teenagers being murdered in my neighborhood guys I played football went with the school wig getting murdered you know found in a found in it we looking for him ain't nobody seen him in two weeks mama looking for him and wanted to stop the violence organizations along with the police eventually found his dead body inside of an abandoned building and and then we eventually know who killed him another kid our age it was so it was so much going on in the black community with death poverty the broken family I unfortunately am I come from a home where you know in a neighborhood I grew up in ten of my friends I ran with from one Street out of ten young men who knew their biological fathers and one of them may see his dad on the weekends and one actually lives with his mom and dad for a time us other eight don't even have relationships with our biological fathers as you grow up and you act out and you commit your sin do your little bit of good in life you start to have questions because for me it was like why is this happening with my people why why is it that when I go to other parts of the city where weather you know where blacks and Hispanics aren't in great numbers why are them places more peaceful is it that those people have better minds are they just better mannered people and so as I'm having these questions because of what I'm seeing happen in my community police beating dudes up and I seen this stuff grow and the Word of God was brought to my face and what was interesting but when you go up to New York State Pennsylvania New Jersey bro you are exposed to so much doctrine this is before the Internet age I'm talking about mid 90s I was we in my community 5% the five percent nation are the Nation of Islam the RBG which is the red back black and green are paying Africanist movements are Jehovah Witnesses everywhere handing out watchtowers and awaits just other Christian denominations all of this is being exposed to you in young men and women are having discussions about what's the truth it where we should go forward in life if for some reason out of all of that and in the late 90s the five percent nation of gods and Earth's had a big influence in hip-hop music let alone in New York where it comes from where I'm from and in this state and so for some reason I got attached to a small group of young men between the ages of 18 and 20 who was like nah all of that is garbage the Bible has God's Word I couldn't confirm it or not but because for some reason I wound up in that circle of thinking we were 18 19 oh not going to no-one's Church we in the Bible and it was in meet a friend of mine gave me a Bible he had about 10 of them at his house I'm 18 he gave me my own Bible and I went home and I would read the Bible everyday as much as I could I it took me about seven months to read from Genesis chapter 1 to Revelation chapter 22 God is my witness I read the entire Bible at 18 years old didn't understand a lot of it but I retained a lot of memory knowledge of people places events this guy and a third bro it was no it was that reading of the Bible that convinced me in the possibility that many of us who are called African Americans could possibly be connected to the children of Israel because of seeing that their punishment from God fit almost to a tee what was happening with the descendants of those who were brought over here as Chado went and you know in the colonial days and so that was my introduction to the concept and so on in the book of Isaiah chapter 42 it says that at a certain time one would surname himself after Jacob and another with with its hand he would can inscribe unto the Lord that verse made me change my name to Zadok Ben Israel my birth name is Joseph but I chose the name Zadok because I read that for three years I just hung with a circle and we read Bible we didn't go to no so-called Israelite cancer nothing so I always tell people it was the Bible itself that convinced me of certain things in about three four years and to it we hooked up with some individuals who considered themselves Israel too but they happen to be part of a group like a little church that preached this idea and we were like wow so we weren't enamored we joined them we were with them for about five years and then we moved on so just going through all of that I believe it's God who brought me through this path and my belief in Christ was just cemented by what I already read in the Old Testament by the time I got to the New Testament Jesus wasn't some white man's religion some there's no it just was a seamless hey now I'm gonna reveal the things that are in the prophets and so when it comes to the commandments of God like I do keep kosher diet I keep the dietary law I don't eat them I agree on certain things and that's because now that I've been freed in Christ and been justified from our former sins I am free to practice God commanded without condemnation of the law just as others feel they are free to not have to deal with certain Commandments because of their armed justification through Christ it is through Christ Liberty that I can look at the righteousness in his our commitment in the commandments of God as it says in the book of Revelation on that he will give a reward to those who keep the commandments of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ so I'm a full-out blown Christian Nazarene Messianic whatever word people prefer to use to describe someone believes that Jesus the Christ is the rebuild salvation and not only the Son of God but the manifestation of God in the flesh then that's what I am whatever word is comfortable for people as long as you identify me as belonging with ya that's why I was gonna ask you to so you know about just the term Christian like do you feel comfortable with that you know there's so many people who are so deep that they'd you know even using the name Jesus or being identified as a Christian like that they're so deep that they could they won't allow you know those words to come out their mouth or whatever you know yeah no I was just saying that I was going down what's gonna be my next question just ask you about the Christian thing like dude would you call yourself a Christian do you identify with that term or even the name Jesus because like a lot of so deep that they won't even identify with that term you know they could give it they give it over to Western as Christianity and just because they you know what what we've had like all of this stuff in this conception is beautiful to get back to the roots of it and I think that's what Hebrew roots movement and Messianic Judaism and all of these the Hebrew Israelites I think they're even trying to do that they may have it may not be doing it the best but at least they're trying so you got to give them some kudos for that and that's something that's always been you know say in my heart was to get to this stuff in his conception before it was messed up by the West before it was mixed with everything you know and my heart is still there so that's also man so uh what are some of the things like in like the Hebrew Israelites for whatever that you would distance yourself from I mean there's a lot of stuff in it versus just thrown the baby out with the bathwater like what are just some of the things that you would you know I mean obviously majority people want to hear that term they think that white man is the devil you know what I'm saying I mean there's a good there's some good arguments for that I'll say that for sure but what is what is uh what what are some of the things that you separate yourself from when it comes to that doctrine I know the same could be said for a Christian what do you separate yourself from when it comes to the term Christian what does what do you separate yourself from when it comes to being a spiritual individual like any of that stuff but just I guess specifically with Hebrew is realized what are some of the the dogmatic things that you're not a part of well I will say this first because you brought up a point as you were getting into this are as you were segue I'm a Christian and I'm and I'll let it be known Jesus is acceptable that term that word because I understand where it comes from I'm not going to get into a long but all that oh there was no letter J yeah and or in color or Zeus that doesn't come loose yeah it's so much bad doctrine out here that all I can say is that over the two decades I've been saved I sit in a circle I don't depend on my own thought and so from our research and understanding that we believe has been led by the Ruach of God we are other conclude that all of this is acceptable we will not allow the term Christian verses being called you don't see me I don't call myself a Christian I just call myself a follower of the way yeah okay yeah there was no J in the English yes it was a J now if we want to find out why the character Jim there was no distinct character letter J from the letter I but the J sound was always there all of that is easy to prove but and so I just wanted to let everyone know I am a Christian Hebrew Israelite does not describe my belief because if because if you're Chinese and you don't believe in God what do they call you an atheist right so so if I claim Hebrew I'm claiming it as an ethnic identity then I'm the Hebrew and if I don't believe God what am i an atheist so Hebrew doesn't describe my belief in worldview necessarily it describes an ethnic identity unto myself so as far as me I'm letting people know that now outside of that for some people being a Jew or being an Israelite as a religion so I'll give you a comparative analysis dr. Michael Brown a great Christian apologist and a fellow believer um he is a Jew by ethnicity but he identifies as Christian in belief system yet Jerry Seinfeld the comedian is a Jew by ethnic identity but people don't use to to identify him religiously yeah because there's a such thing as a secular Jew meaning I'm not religious I'm not into all of that I'm just Jew because I come from a people group that claimed to be Jew but then there are those who are said to be Jew because they practice Torah or rabbinical Judaism in the same way people have to apply that to the Hebrew Israelite construct so when it comes to the religion that is called Hebrew Israel ISM I am NOT one and I want people to know there are some things that if you go to Africa if you go to other places in the world where people identify as Hebrew Israelites the white man being the devil stuff and all of that that is not something you ever hear talk that that comes out of a bad doctrine that has its roots in New York City beside of a particular group and that particular group in the year 2000 a prophecy didn't come to pass and that group broke up over a 10-year period they broke up into about ten or twelve smaller groups all who all competed for who had the truth all of them teach basically the same thing but they all broke up from being the one big group so what has happened is in the age of the internet from about 2010 to now yeah those particular groups waged war on each other through YouTube posting their so-called street evangelism or on the internet trying to show up each other and in the process individuals from all around the country started to become enamored with that from final that anger that almost in some ways in the hierarchal type of attitude toward the system and then of course with the anger that is built up in a lot of young impoverishment they started to identify and put their troubles on the system and not take responsibility for their own evil equal and so that particular brand guys standing on a corner with that say that white Jesus image is the devil's work and then they got a superhero wrestler looking Marvel comic yeah God like just painting something black looking is better white people are evil and they even call white they call it they call Caucasian brothers john esau if you hear any of that understand that me and the circle and the majority of Hebrew Israelites in America don't agree with that doctrine and for some of you who didn't find out about these groups until you've seen them on an internet back in 1997 me and my brothers were debating with these particular factions out of the Israelite community the same way that summer for Christians or even Pentecostal on brethren we'll probably go back and forth with a Klansmen who would call themselves a Christian yet will preach hate and separation of ethnic groups and stuff like that that's what something you mentioned Klansmen I think that's a good segue for me because when I got really deep into the Hebrew Israelite stuff the Klansmen stuff is what kind of brought me out of it kind of it kind of brought me back to a reality just just a little bit more because I got really big into the nationality I was doing my own research about I wanted to know more about my native american heritage used to live on the the indian reservation and my mom's side we go to the powwow every year and you know all that but i didn't know much about the heritage and so I started looking it up and I remember the movie Apocalypto came out and it's like even that was more Mayan it was still just kind of showing you some of the for sure and yeah man I was good Psalms when I was doing my research and looking up stuff and and then finally I was I was just watching some video on on YouTube back in like 2006 or so and it was some brothers on the street wearing all white preaching and then they were talking about the Illuminati and stuff like that but then he's like he's preaching and he says this goes out to you Israel Israel is the dark-skinned oppressed people on the earth and he's like he started naming on me something and he said the Native American Indian which is from the tribe of GAD and I have been doing all this research and stuff and when he said that something's shifted in my spirit I boom I felt the Holy Spirit so wha this is deep sigh okay you I want to know more so I started linking in with those people who were in Philadelphia out preaching on the street and I'm in Alabama so I'm linking it with them over the internet 2006/7 I'm already into Messianic Judaism right by keeping the law and eating kosher and all those kind of things I got into that as a Christian but then I linked in with those guys and got really deep into their classes and studying and we ended up paying those like paying for flights for them guys to come down and teach on the streets in mobile I actually linked in with early on it was the light and body of Christ Church but eventually they had a split and it became the gathering of Christ church elder rákóczi are I'm not sure if you know much about him but we had a few run-ins unfortunately I loved his heart but Ian had said he had a few false prophecies oh yeah no no so that's when I kind of woke up was like during the whole time of like because I'm I went to Atlanta preached on the streets with them brothers brought you know flew him down here and we had our own sect here in Mobile and we'd go out on the streets and I wearing all white you know doing our thing and so really big on the nationality side of it and and one thing them brothers taught me how to study the Scriptures man they really taught me how to dissect that Bible dude and I and I really appreciate that because I didn't learn that in church they don't they teach you one take one scripture and what's it mean to you today which is good too but they taught me how to tear that Bible love man for sure but I got really deep into that and there's a bunch of long stories with it but they started preaching we need to leave Babylon there the message went from repentance and you know it's pointing out what the enemy is doing in Hollywood and all this kind of stuff and the illumine they would expose the Illuminati which was all new to me at the time but their message shifted from that to we got to leave Babylon Babylon is America and they'll show you what why babylons America you know looking at the the New World Order stuff and all the satanic symbols in in Hollywood and satanic symbols in and in the government on our dollar and all the stuff and showing you how this place is wicked and God's coming back to destroy America so we have to make sure we're out of the country when he does that and so they were reading of the epochal in saying that there was one place where we would be protected and Abraham's bosom or something anyway we're the children of Israel were protected in the in the wilderness we have to go back there and that's where Christ comes back and God's people anyway damn I wasn't resonated with that at all you know they in that that became like their main focus that we got to leave America and all of our phone calls all of their preaching and on the streets was trying to get people telling hey this place is fixing to go down in flames the bombs were fixing a drop and they will go read in Revelations about the stars falling and falling and saying that the stars were bombs that were being dropped on America and Babylon was destroyed in our totally bad interpretations of the scripture but very sensational oh man it's about me it's about us it's about us it's fixing to happen and any time you know people preach that it really feels it makes you [ __ ] you up you're in it and anyway I was into that I started pulling back a little bit but then I would go to work and I started working in Mississippi with some people and um I brought my Bible to work and we were talking about the true Jews who was the true Jews and and I was like yeah them the people in the land right now aren't the true Jews and I say yup revelations 2 now revelations 3 and I you know there are those who say the other the children Israel but they are the synagogue of Satan he's like yeah you know what you're talking about these are white guys and uh so I'm going back and forth with them and like oh man they might know who the true Jews are and we've got to sit down to talk about it I'm trying to show them how the blacks or the Israelites and the Native Americans and this kind of stuff and he brought do brought his Bible to work and he got from Genesis to Revelation all the text highlighted to where the white man is the Israelite and how God is dealing righteously with the white people from Genesis to Revelation and I would debate them and we would argue on the job and we wouldn't even do work we go to work just a debate and argue with these guys I know my stuff and they would stump me on stuff and it was stumping and I would go back and call ricard and I would call brother rum and I'll call these brothers in New York and Phil in LA man this is what they told me man I don't know what to say and it would stump them it would stump them because they didn't know what to say like these big teachers in the Israelite movement were like man I think the Lord got to work for you brother and it would give me like half answers that didn't make sense I'm like come on man like and I'll go back but it really at the end of the day made me think like man they got a lot of stuff that if you're studying the Bible with this in mind and this is your worldview like it becomes real the way that you're interpreting these scriptures that you are the chosen people bah bah bah bah at the end of the day those other scriptures that says stop arguing about genealogy a true Jew was one inwardly the flesh profiteth nothing there's like all of those scriptures started making way more sense when I was going back with all this arguing in and trying to get to the bottom of the truth so that content those that going back and forth with the they were in the clan there were Klu Klux Klan members that I was working with on a job and they called card-carrying Klansmen and but yeah I would out debate them guys till I was red in the face by Bible any hands just like you yeah both on the two extremes of yeah yeah what Scripture is saying yeah yeah Wow it was just it was a spitting image of the New York guys you know I'm saying except when the black thing it was the white thing you know all of this you know we all go through our journey but the Lord showed me and my brethren we believe by our devotional Scripture is if you're truly devoted to understanding God's Word I think people commit they can miss like you said the text clearly says seek and ye shall find search out for truth like ask for treasure that means just because that we believe the Bible is truth just because you open it and read it don't mean that you've searched it for understanding and it is the Holy Spirit with a pure heart that brings understanding in my opinion and as I went through all of these phases of life I it was brought to the realization that hey if you okay so let's just say you could take a DNA testing 23andme ancestry.com African ancestry what if they sent you back a test saying you're 1000% related to Abraham literally by genetics does that make you righteous does that mean that you've repented does that mean that you've accepted the atoning work of the Father through the presentation in a revealing of his son who we called Jesus the Christ or in the Hebrew realms some of us called referred to a master yahushua or you how shy the messiah the the answer is no and as Peter said in Acts chapter 10 if he understood it now with the power of the Holy Spirit that God is no respecter of persons yeah but in all nations those who work righteousness are accepted with him the spirit revealed that broke and I understood yo man it don't matter what ethnicity you believe you're from if you're a son of Adam and you don't repent and accept the father's salvation through Christ then you'll just be a Hebrew Israelite suffering the eternal punishment just as a Russian or an Asian or somebody from South America whatever whatever ethnicity you want to name whatever skin colour if you don't repent and come unto the Father I don't care where you from and as the spirit revealed that we understood so people get it twisted I don't run around waste spending my time preaching about being a Hebrew Israelite that's a personal conviction to me I preached the gospel yeah I don't baptize people into being a Hebrew Israelite because I can't hide that that's not the gospel let me let me get your opinion on this man because I've kind of like um I spoke out a comment Adan on Facebook and I usually don't I usually don't comment on stuff that I don't agree with but a friend of mine posted this picture and it had a caption on it the picture was Kirk Franklin the Christian gospel artists holding an elderly Billy Graham's hands and kissing his hands and and they took a picture of that and somebody put a caption on it and says this is what happens when you look at your oppressors as the image of God or whatever and then some friends started commenting on it and that's a whole lot man y'all out of line just he's honoring that brother for his service to to what he's done for the the greatest evangelist to the greatest one of the biggest preachers of the gospel of our day and exactly I said I said that's honor they started mocking me and you know this is an honor this is idolatry and I was like man y'all out-of-pocket for posting the y'all claim you claim Christ and you posted this first of all it's got some some racist stuff on it you know as far as the caption but what he's doing and I didn't understand like Christians greeted each other with the kiss in the scriptures they kissed each other a lot of people believe it was on the lips some say on the cheeks I'm saying on the lips I've never took part in a foot washing a Christian foot washing but this past weekend somebody wanted to wash my feet before they left and even I've kind of standoffish to it I like I was like sure man if that's what it was and it was an honor thing cuz I brought honor what you're contributing what God is doing in your life I'm a servant I'm a brother I'm linked in with you and so when I seen that picture it was beautiful and it for people to say that it really rubbed me the wrong way what would you say Curt franking of Franklin a black man kissing the hands of an elderly dying Billy Graham before he passed and I'll tell you what Johnny Lucas put out a song recently about Will Smith in and the emphasis was give them that their flowers while they're still alive honor them while they're still here you gonna wait till they die but like man he was a good guy bro not honor these people why these here man while he can appreciate it you know what I'm saying what would you say bro I would say the asinine stupidity of humanity shows itself at the worst times that's what I'd say because if Martin Luther King never would have been assassinated who stood hand-in-hand with Billy Graham to give an african-american the opportunity to it Billy Graham was as instrumental in the civil rights legislation passing as Martin Luther King and most people don't want to actually admit that but you can't pull the wool over my eyes because I'm a student of history I have to be if Martin Luther King wouldn't have been assassinated and right now Martin Luther King probably been about his oldest Billy Graham was when he passed away if Kirk Franklin would have been hole in the hands of Martin Luther King kissing him while he was on his deathbed this wouldn't even be a conversation and that's all I got to say and that's what hypocrisy and those people he honored elder brother in the faith but see people are proving how racist they are and how presidents they are in their own heart I don't care what the color of that man hands was I can only show affection in the flesh toward the spirit that I perceived emanating out of a man his skin color had nothing to do with it and I'm telling you right now for all of them people who made that comment if Martin Luther King would have never been assassinated and would've died in old age like Billy Graham cuz what do you think my luther king would have continued to do he would continue to be the most famous african-american preacher and in the country and would have been a part of almost anything that we see leading up to this point the same way people were seeing al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson and if and if King was on his deathbed how about what would they have to say if Billy Graham was still alive and Martin was passing before him they both owed and Billy Graham come to the bedside of his brother in Christ who he stood with to help the african-american collective what if billy graham would have held Martin's hands as Martin was dying and him saying brother we don't ran your race I love you and I'll see you soon and he would have kissed Martin Luther King's hands how would they had caption that damn hypocrites forgive me I got a little bit upset no I did too I don't usually comment on that stuff I usually just kind of chalk it up and just kind of keep keep a mental note of who posted it you know what I'm saying to see what kind of person you are but I commented on it I said some things I shouldn't have but it got me you know what I'm saying but maybe I should have maybe I cause it's a satire bro it's a time for everything for sure times you got to say what you got to say yeah um little stuff like that they take jabs and here's something else that's been in the news too the lead singer from a Christian band Hawk Nelson which these guys made a little bit of noise in the mid-2000s have not been relevant in a long time he comes out and says he doesn't believe in God anymore all of the big headlines pick it up it's like they're looking for a reason to blaspheme that noble name by which you're called they're like this guy hasn't been relevant in a long time but he came out publicly said hey I don't believe in God no more guys and all the major news stations are running with this person with this and it's strange ain't it but that's just like with what the enemy is doing looking for reasons to blaspheme looking for reasons to make fun of of Christianity of the gospel right what it is we live in that age and I believe that the hypocrisy of the so-called body of Christ collective in this country earns pushback and it earns the enemies of righteousness looking for an opportunity because whether people want to admit it or not just as David was told by the Prophet Nate you by your by your wrongdoing you gave the enemies of God an opportunity to blaspheme the Christian collective with its separation is denominational bickering it's racial divide Martin Luther King is quoted as saying that's afternoon Sundays in America is the most segregated time of the week because all other believers in Christ separate to their ethnic ethnically divided church homes our hypocrisy our lack of love okay if you believe the homosexual is wrong for their lifestyle choice if you believe some women and men are making a wrong decision the wrong decision in abortion okay if you believe that it's one thing to point it out and say hey man this ain't right but you follow that up with but I love you and if you need help yo yo come bill that's never said so at the end of the day all I can tell you is is that we as believers are unfortunately a part of a greater thing that gets frowned upon because it tells the world y'all wicked and then the world turns around and sees all of your wickedness and you look just like it so you look fake to the world and so in the world fine opportunities they'll stab you with the little thorn like ah ha yeah I'm not so perfect yeah I'm not so unblemished how are you trying to portray yourselves and that's unfortunate but it is what it is that's true very true man speaking of you know given the the roses while they're still here I remember I'm just where was the last week week before Lecrae Tim Tebow and another minister did a video I guess they went to see Ravi Zacharias who wasn't doing very well and and kind of say hey make sure you guys let him know what his family know while he's still here he's not looking too good that uh you know what what his ministry what his efforts means to you and as soon as I seen the video I made sure I posted one hashtag Thank You Ravi and and he died shortly after what did it was it was he somebody that you maybe looked up to as far as the way he handles the scriptures and apologetics and stuff for me it definitely was man I couldn't argue with much I heard Ravi talk about over the years yes I had nothing but love for him I called him Robby the Super Saiyan that's among me and my brothers that was an ongoing joke and not a joke at him but we're just saying this was the man who could be questioned in front of a roomful of 20,000 in his and in his his responses in his thought process second to none and one thing he did was I believed he caused a lot of brothers especially in Ch H Michael appraised and others and I seen conversations between him and our brother Emanuel Lambert aka the truth shout out the truth where them coming out of heavily reformed backgrounds and Ravi coming out of a more charismatic Pentecostal background it show that apologetics and theology no certain denomination or persuasion of Christianity has a monopoly on defending the gospel and in their ability to disseminate truth a lot of reformed people didn't like Ravi because he turned on the head some of the things that they would try to claim in a superiority and biblical interpretation are narrative and I just loved the fact that he defended his stance as well but he loved and opened his hand to every persuasion of belief if you claim to be a believer in God he gave you the benefit of the doubt and would sit down with you and treat you as a brother and I think that will forever miss individuals like him as we find ourselves just needing more examples like that in society so shout out the great brother and may his crown be given him if the Lord fine can fit amen well said Burwell said um talk a little bit about the new album that drops tomorrow for those who are listening to this live on you on YouTube Facebook or whatever you guys will be able to get the new album tomorrow the new album is is an entitled salt what's the inspiration behind I know from a Christian perspective I understand what what salt means but what's we got a lot of unbelievers listening to what the what does even that title mean for the album well shout out first of all shout out this platform I appreciate you having me on a day brothers it's great to do this and to all of those who are listening in who may not consider yourselves of believers in a particular God that me and my brother served are we still thank you for having the heart to listen to our heart and understand that we would do the same if we were in your presence and you spoke because at the end of the day the morality of men in the efforts to understand the purpose of life and do and do what's right it's a universal thing I just believe that you know for some who come out of Hinduism Buddhism they're you know that they're they're looking for enlightenment they're trying to reach nirvana and they're trying to find out what is it that we do and I believe that goes beyond the simple meditation of man trying to quiet himself the only thing that has been able to quiet me is the Holy Spirit of God and so it is that light of the world that has given me and like in in my conscience it causes me to walk as I walk and it's the same for my brother here so first of all just want to let all of them who are listening know it is never too late for you to say to God show me who you are because whether you know it or not you're actually calling for him with your attempt at being spiritual in some kind of way you're trying to tap into the source in the essence of life and we call and that word is God meaning the power you're looking to be tapped into that power I believe we understand who that power is this album is called salt it once again it'll be available tomorrow Friday May 29th all all streamable platforms if you want to actually download it for free go to hog mob that's h OG m OB r dot VanCamp calm for the free download the inspiration behind the album is this while we know all the various uses of salt literally it's a preservative it's a healing agent it rehydrates a body that's depleted of its sources and it also flavors thing that are just plain to the taste on Christ told the church the believers have salt among yourselves and I want to encourage those who claim to be of God while we point to the outside world you know you it's comfortable sitting from your perch talking about how evil they are who are they those who aren't us that's easy to do but how often do you check in and tap in and find the flaw in yourself it's like looking at your TV you got something in the mirror you don't try to get it off you got a stain on your shirt you'll try to change your shirt in that same manner we are told that judgment starts at God's house so now I'm believers who are listening it and believers understand this God doesn't God doesn't say that his judgment starts with those who don't know him he holds to account more those who claim to know him and this project is to paint at the believer to encourage the believer in love to truly love one another because while you're in your flesh you still had a propensity to hold a grudge to not forgive just as much as anyone who would claim to not know the Lord so that's really what it is God said be sure that you have salt within yourselves and peace among yourselves as being brothers and I want to remind so-called Christians we better get it right among ourselves so that the look so that the world you know you're now enter with this bro you know how when you were a child you did something wrong but when you were approached about why did you do it you were point to the other people who did wrong as if well they was doing it and so yo that's how the world is and that's how Humanity is and if Christians claim to be the true belief Seavers then the world go look at you and so when they look at us they better see love they better see patience they better see long-suffering and a better see a genuine care and concern for one another because that's the only thing that will convince them that we might possibly be hitting up on anything so that's really the spirit of the album salt hey man that's it man will I listen to some of the songs that were on the album already and I listen to radiate is that the new video that you just dropped this morning like six hours ago something like that enjoyed it yeah it's good Sam oh and again the artist you had featured on there was dope to whose Beach shout-out my rebel against the world family he's our these are an artist who was a part of the

his walk with the Lord that's my brother that's what's up man that's what's up so again they can go to the hog mob Bam Bam camp to get it for free or it's gonna be streaming Spotify iTunes where it DS or wherever you listen to music is gonna be right yes sir for sure man well brother man I appreciate you coming on hanging out with me man really enjoyed building with you and again when we talked on the phone yesterday for a minute I was like well it's just I like to hold back because I don't want it to be organic you know just kind of getting to know one another on camera and other people being able to kind of sit in on that as well man so it was good building with with your brother like my number in I'm a brother man anytime you need me you want to just need somebody to talk to roll some ideas off of I'm here bro so lot my number in and it was good building with you anytime you want to come back on a bill bro I'm down to do it so just hit me up no I appreciate it truth and everything

there's over 7 billion other people on this planet so I don't take for granted who God lets you actually meet and talk to don't take that for granted so I don't take this for granted though I appreciate your time and your platform thank you I enjoy the brother anything else before we go man anything else you want to plug any other subjects that we didn't want to talk talk with did we didn't talk about that you want to speak on I'm good for time I just let me know you know what I'll just say this we have to remember that we die daily in Christ and I and I want to say this to anyone who's listening so that they can understand what it is that you and I are claiming we're claiming that all the things that we've done all the fornication all the lying all the kenai all the wicked thoughts all the drug addiction everything that we've been a part of that we within ourselves without anybody telling us we knew that a lot of this wasn't good that's why when I went to go mess with a woman I shouldn't be messing with I did it under the cover of darkness I don't want to be seen that just the way I went about it let it be no I don't want role that's how you know what sin is man and this cuz that's right I have had a difficult time all in my life just being able to all my own efforts get away from it maybe some people believe they can stop some things cold turkey shout out to them but I know a lot of people who didn't get away from their crack addition there are opioid addiction their alcoholism until they went to a particular group setting of others who are fighting that struggle to help them I found that in the body of Christ and anyone who's listening man if you are trying whatever you're trying and you feel it's not working i adjure you pray God go wherever you have privacy and talk to God because I tell people only one or two things is happening there is truly a power that hears you and been waiting for you to ask or there is no God you're in a room by yourself and you just talking to yourself and you'll eventually realize you look foolish but you won't be embarrassed because what nobody around to see it but you anyway I think he always responds man I tell people I tell them to do it with the scriptures like they want to have a mystical experience they want to know God listen ask him to reveal himself to you pick up them scriptures and start reading and if you say that within you're really honest that you want to come into an encounter in a relationship 100% just like he did you picking it up from Genesis to Revelation he revealed his glory his love to you and and in you as well not to you but also in you Christ in me the hope of glory man appreciate this this conversation brother thanks for coming on hanging out with me would

stuff because I said I type in chat I said tell me more she said the word net network showed racism the owners showed himself as a pimp 100% did blackface and had black preachers around him we still have to be mindful yeah and I'm thinking I didn't know that see when I was considering going joining the network I didn't know who the owner was the owner is Mike Murdock which is like prosperity pimp 101 I remember years ago you know he'd been on TV in a lot and my sister she was searching you know it's up late at night that's what people do they search this money this money play infomercials and they try to sell you stuff in the middle of the night you buy or stuff on Amazon in middle of the night they're trying to sell you stuff in the middle of the night so people to search him and she goes through TBN and Mike Murdoch's on there and he's like if you give the blessing of Isaiah 58 $58 for 58 months God will unlock to you the blessing of Isaiah 58 upon your life and we listen to this that sounds so crazy you know I'm saying like it sounds crazy for us but a lot of Christians believe it I know the people who discipled me early on believe that like they signed up you know $58 for 58 months to unlock the blessing of fit Isaiah 58 like I know people who did that and they truly believe that it works but uh you know most of us look at that like man some two and my sister who called me she's like she's considering being a Christian man she's looking for God looking for truths and she finds this Mike Murdock would you give would you just give you last five dollars the Lord will bless you over you know and just these people begging for your money we could you know people in it blew my mind cos my sister who we wouldn't consider herself really a Christian she could see through it but the church folks would eat it up this kind of stuff and I found out that Mike Murdock was the he's the owner of the word Network and I do not like Mike Murdock at all but they still email me they still call me trying to get me to sign up for that for their network and put me in front of millions of people and all that kind of stuff which I don't even I don't think that they can honestly I feel like they they cheap their numbers Jin Lee says how do you spell his name I think Christian hip hop is radical same with Christ Punk heck yeah I love Christian punks za why D okay Zadok where's the duck za y if you type in that in and type in the God hop MC which is as YouTube and there's a bunch of videos there again he's done a bunch of stuff with seven as well Kristi Johnson says I quit heroin and cocaine cold turkey I had to be alone I made it just me and God yep but you go by yourself and then you get linked back in with a community with the church you know what I'm saying with with like-minded people what happens if you quit heroin kotor ki then you go back to those same people doing heroin now with that being said God usually cleans you up and send you back to reach those people you came from like Joseph Wright does did that for me does that for so many people but what if you was to go back before you really even had a foundation of studying of learning you know you really do have to change your scenery so that's what like linking in with like-minded people we do it on the School of the Mystics Thursday nights you guys can join us tonight which I remember when I gave my heart to the Lord and came back to the Lord in 2000 we've tried to go hang out with the same friends I went and picked this guy up who I was hanging out with and drinking and smoking with and stuff like that I went and picked him up and he got in our backseat and we just got born again we wanted to tell him hey man I gave my life to the Lord and he's like fidgeting around and it's in his pants like what you doing man in the back seat and he pulls out a steak knife I can't trust nobody Sbrocco I take you home dog like you can't be having you hanging around me and my girl like you can't trust nobody you got knives and stuff hidden on your person and hold on man so like I remember we went back home when we pray who said Lord we need Christian friends in our life we need some people who love the Lord in our lives right now more than ever and we prayed and God opened up that door and sent people in our lives who were seeking Him and changed our life back in 2000 so for sure you definitely got to find those people who you can resonate with people who believed in you always say go to where you're appreciated not just the way you're tolerated you know I'm saying find some people who just who love you and and who are gonna walk through this life together with you with your faults with your glories with your shortcomings with everything come as you are you know what I'm saying so that's being a believer in the body of Christ I really do believe is about being transparent and authenticity and so that's where that's really contagious right now it's really popular and I think that the church or people I say Church people who claim Christ definitely need to get on that that transparency and authenticity we're human bro at the end of the day I'm a human I'm not infallible I'm not right on everything but I do find out a piece and just being open and honest and not being a hypocrite you know what I'm saying like just as me what you see is what you get I'm not trying to you know hide it and any time you think about hiding it anytime you think about I don't need to see that's when you need to bring it to the forefront I think that's where like trying to cover up things and not being in the light as he is in the light that's where the enemy comes in that's where these thoughts of the accuser accusation comes in because you're trying to cover up who you really are who God has called you to be so being comfortable within your own skin knowing that you know there's the two natures that are alive within you and and in some days you do good some days you don't but God loves you regardless whether you're having a bad day or you just cussed your boss out wherever you are just know that God's love is for you all you got to do is it's just get in his presence you know close your eyes pray take a deep breath in his love is there it's never left you he'll never leave you never forsake you and so that's why I chose Christ or he chose me and that's why I remain in him because I know his love for me is radical it's contagious and I don't have to do anything I get to do stuff right I get to do a lot of cool spiritual stuff and that I like but I don't have to do anything he's already done it for me so understanding that man is uh is where the pieces I'm not accepted I don't even think that we accept a big if we repent like I think that his love like while we were yet sinners his love reached out to us I think that uh that he he reconciles all things unto himself at some point but if you want to step into the kingdom of heaven especially now on the earth because it's alive and we can have access now on earth as it is in heaven you have to repent like there's things that you need to do to throw off your sins and walking your destiny and be victorious in areas of your life so trust me that but but I don't do that to be accepted or loved by God I do it because I am accepted in love by God he gets us Grace and the power to overcome sin and those things because we're conscious of it so let that be known that his love for you is relentless man and there's nothing that you have to do to earn it you've already received it so let that empower you with anything that you need to move forward in the future to know that you're loved by God for sure yeah Brenda here in chat she says we need to forgive ourselves yeah it's it's one thing for God to forgive us right we're forgiven we're freed the cross has already happened he loves us you know it's like getting that flower he loves me he loves me not he loves me he loves me not turn off the petals but with Christ with God he loves me he loves me he loves me he loves me he loves you man but you need to learn to forgive yourself that's a big one we beat ourselves up we get into addictions and drinking and pill addiction and stuff like that trying to deal with the hurt in the wounds and you know and it never ends well bring it to him he'll give you the power to do it he'll give you the grace to do it I hope that you guys enjoyed that I really did love building with that brother for the first time that's my first time I talked with him yesterday just kind of

p.m. central man talk about our men's meeting I guess I'm talk about it a little bit we had an amazing time we only had a couple people who were able to make it we had a we were sold out as far as the the beds are concerned but because of kovat 19 a lot of people had to cancel and and they're gonna just catch us on the next one so we have fun I've got to meet some people for the first time that I've been building wit for a while shout out to javi javi two times sorry two tones who came down he drove and from Georgia it's like seven eight hour drive shout-out to Jeffrey moody he drove seven hours seven and a half and shoutout to Nico Morales who came and he drove seven and a half hours and so we had a great time getting together in the wilderness walking through the woods and connecting with each other and then really waiting for the Sun to go down to really tap into some some breath work some intense prayer man it was really good really good we got to go out stargazing and seeing some some of the angels the messengers the chariots of the Most High and it was we've seen some phenomenal stuff man that I haven't seen in a long time that a lot of my music is about a lot of this stuff and it's been a while since I've been able to go out in stargaze and it was right before the new moon so we went out there and connected with the father under the open stars and he just loves to blow our minds and allow us to see things and so to be able to do that with brothers for the first time we had some beautiful experiences and encounters I just give you one there was one we were asking father fer to see a one of his messengers the Seraphim traveling back and forth from the night sky the angels we asked for sightings man and so there was one that was up pretty high it's just like it looks like a little piece of rice that's outside of the atmosphere and and we're trying to talk to it asking it to power up because you can communicate with them they you communicate with them telepathically through your thoughts but we're vocalizing hey can you can you can you give us a boost can you give us a power up and it was going across the night sky all sorry it went out right when we asked it can you give us a power up and sound bright went out was I oh man come on bro come on give us a power up and all of sudden just out of nowhere looks really bright like just right there where it was and shine real but like wow we were pushing each other I was just so much joy that we released when we had that and then it just started like kind of like playing tag what I said would go away and it would pop up somewhere else like right there by it it would blink and it would go out and move like probably arms leaning too far you're looking up at the sky is probably about a fingers length away or so just in that area they were popping up saying hello we've seen a bunch of really cool stuff that night and it's awesome because you can go out there at times and not see anything so for us to be able to go out there and doing prayer doing meditation connecting with the Father and positioning ourselves spiritually to be able to receive and be able to project our energy and say hey we're not we're not harmful we just want to say hello and in my music you know what I'd say visitation sparks revival like any type of spiritual encounter that you have there's an impartation that comes with it and so for me it definitely it changes everything now I watched the ce-5 documentary last night which is called Close Encounters of the fifth kind people are all across the world going out and doing this and to hear their stories and to see some of the footage that people are capturing of these entities these angels these crafts and things like that that they're seeing it will change your life man to know that heaven is for real heaven is just not a place that you go when you die there heaven exists outside of the Earth's atmosphere past the heavens past the sky outerspace as we call it there's a boat of God and the Angels travel back and forth from heaven to earth and if you go out there long enough and ask and train your eyes a lot of times you can see him so it's just such a blessing and it uh imparts me something in your mana came back and started writing some music messing around and just trying to be inspired by it and it was so much fun just connecting with those brothers and having them out there for the first time to be able to see it so we had a blast our miniature tree we're gonna do another one it was totally different than the last one you know they were both different I've done two so far and they both were different but both beautiful and with the people that I connected with and just even what we did man so it was awesome and I'm gonna do a third one here in a couple months most likely so if anybody wants to get in on that send me a email INBOX me we'll talk about it and but I don't have all the details yet so anyway keep that in your mind if you want to connect with us we'd definitely do another one so we had fun I need to have those buzzers come on and do a talk with with me and talk about our experiences so that's what's up with that I'm gonna say peace and Shalom guys many blessings to you join us on the school of the Mystics if you want 7 p.m. central you get access to that by becoming a patron so for a dollar you
