An Introduction

I was raised Christian (Pentecostal). One Sunday, when I was about 15 years old (in the year 1994 or 1995), I was in church with my mother, ...

The Rock of Offense - A Different Take

Any boulder that you tie around your neck or bind to your shoulders to appease whatever god it is you serve will be the rock that takes you down to the grave. God will personally pick up that boulder, with your neck still tightly bound, and toss into the deep dark sea - as is evident when looking at how God treated our ancestors. There is a standard to which you must abide: be decent human beings, treat others the way you want to be treated; be faithful children, trust in God's saving hand; and stay far away from any doctrine that takes away your humanity. This is God's only requirement, this is God's only rule and law. If you have any questions about being human and you don't want to consult with someone who knows God, then ask a baby. A babe will explain it to you plainly.

If you become a faithful babe, who trusts the saving hands of its Mother, you will find favor with the Living God, which will be evident in the transformations of your life and body, and your hope will be in life eternal.

It is important that we do not do harm to one another or to ourselves. If you are allergic to peanuts, do you still eat them? Of course not. Then you should not do what you know causes harm to your own body - your afflictions will start small and become ever-increasing evident. Be mindful! Pay heed! Beyond this, let no man tell you what to do with your own flesh. If you err with your flesh, God will not testify against your body, your body will testify against itself - and if you refuse to pay heed and cause your own undoing, you will get exactly what you deserve. Any mercy coming down from the God of light and darkness is totally at God's discretion.

If you want to die, open a religious book and believe the false doctrines it gives against being a plain old ordinary sexual human being. If you want to undergo decay, believe those false prophets who encourage churches to serve the mighty dollar. If you want to be rejected by God, believe those ministers who lie about God everyday, teaching you love the sacrifices made - as if God struggles with forgiving people. If God struggles with forgiveness (requiring the bloodshed of lambs and such), then we have no chance at being compassionate and merciful beings. God does not struggle with forgiveness, nor does God require sacrifices, nor does God demand that you give up your rent money, nor does God require you to believe the writings of men telling you to love restrictions and hate the naked body.

It is awful to think that God struggles with mercy. Creation was the ultimate act of mercy (we did nothing to deserve it). Did that too require the sacrifice of some lamb?

In thinking about false prophets - they do have those sweet words that they tell people. "Give me your mortgage payment and god will return your blessings ten fold." Fucking bullshit - to say the very least. I sometimes see those false prophets - you know the more popular ones who give out their prophecies that aren't only about money - and it is evident they are inspired by lying devils flying above. I once worried - but then I remembered 2 things, for one, the religious will perish whether they follow those prophets or not, and two, those prophets will perish. They will not be a burden to God for much longer.

How do you know if someone is a false prophet? Besides stating the obvious, they are nothing more than fortune tellers. There is no difference between the fortune teller who says "Jesus" and the fortune teller who says "spirit" and "the universe" - they will hand in hand walk toward the depths of the Earth. Whether or not they are saved thousands of years from now is, once again, totally at God's discretion. How do you know if someone is actually a prophet of the Living God? When they speak, whole countries are flooded with water. When they write, massive deserts are turned into gardens. When they move, their flesh is transformed right before your eyes.

God against religion

I was brought up in the filth of the Pentecostal Church by people who were brought up in the filth of the Church. But in my mid-20s, I rejected religion and cleaned my mouth, and purged my mind as best as I knew how. Then a year later, the God I did not know called out to me. Then this is what was said concerning me: "Is this not a brand plucked from the fire? Remove the filthy garments from him." And again, "See, I have taken your iniquity away from you and will clothe you with festal robes."

I am not a smart man, at least, not according to my own standards. I am, what I would consider, a jack of many trades, but a master of none. For instance, I am a cook, but I am no chef; I am a wine-maker, but I am no connoisseur. I know a bit of this, and a little of that - but there is so much to know and learn - it becomes overwhelming. And often, when I am satisfied with knowing little of a certain subject, I am satisfied and I move on to something new. I have not been one to put all of my attention and dedication into a single thing - with a very few notable exceptions. I am OK with this, and God has been OK with this. How do I know that God has been OK with this? For 2 reasons, because God has not brought against me any objections in the matter and because it has worked out well for me.

I am convinced that the more we know, the more we don't know. I have not met face-to-face with a man or woman who looked for God in the land of the living. They are satisfied with believing that they will know God and know why God does what God does when they are dead. This line of thinking did not satisfy me, nor did it resonate with me. Remember, I am Jack - I prefer to know a little of something than nothing at all. Opinions and beliefs are the equivalent of not knowing at all - so this is also unsatisfactory. I would rather know a little than know nothing at all. This character trait was acceptable to God, and because I inquired of God to know a little, God revealed much. I lack nothing from God.

With regard to those few notable exceptions, if God has a particular task for me, then I become dedicated to said task. For instance, God is about to put an end to both religion and faithlessness on this planet. When God raised up Brent from the dead, and then me, God made it clear to the world that God is fed up with the murdering, the plundering, the oppressing, the idolatry, the slandering, the denigrating, and the godless faithlessness that pervades humanity from generation after generation. Why is God fed up with all this now, rather than say, a thousand years ago? For one, people are in a better position to accept the obvious - the same can not be said a thousand years ago when there weren't many people who would be willing to put scientific facts above beliefs. If God came a thousand years ago, then God would have had to wipe out the entire human race, as there would be no people or groups of people who would understand what God was doing. Rather, God will come in this generation, among those who have beliefs and know that their beliefs are nothing more than beliefs. It is probable that God will level a few cities and countries, and it will be obvious to many what God is doing. God is going to make it abundantly clear that God is the God of the living, in the land of the living, and not the dead. And if people still feel the need to pick up guns and machetes after the fact, then those nations will be dealt with accordingly.

People know what is good - it is why they feel bad when they do wrong. They see the error in their flesh, but they make no haste in correcting their issue. The nations err and err again, making excuses for their many bad dealings, all the while having heart palpitations for year after year. But the day is coming when all their bad behavior catches up to them, and they will have the first signs of heart disease. Their feet will swell as they keep murdering, while calling it 'justice'. Angina will set in as they keep oppressing the poor and those who do not act like them. Their chest will tighten as they keep offering up religion and lip service to God. There will be no doctors to help them with the pain, nor will they remove the fat and excess meat from their diet to remedy the problem. So finally, at long last, they will clench their chest in agonizing pain as their heart dies within them.

Yahweh said to me, "They will hear, but they will not understand."
