Words that are over used to gaslight and avoid accountability Narcissist Abuse Trauma/traumatized Boundaries Protecting my peace Living my truth Toxic Triggered Self-care Self love Gaslighting Insensitive “Therapy speak” refers to the adoption of psychological, clinical language in everyday conversation. While intended to foster emotional awareness, it is often used as social shorthand, resulting in misused or “weaponized” terms like gaslighting, boundaries, and narcissist. Common phrases include “holding space,” “trauma dumping,” and “toxic”. Some of these terms are so overused that many are becoming numb to them.

Stop pressuring young people into marriage to deal with “purity” issues. Sex isn’t the foundation for marriage, but Christ’s relationship with the church and authentic comparable companionship is! (Genesis 2:20, Ephesians 5:23-33)

Every athlete needs to understand the rulebook, every musician is better if they don’t just know how to make beats, but to play a instrument in our music theory, a contractor needs to take great pains to understand the basics of their craft. If that’s true of these natural things how much more is it for a disciple of Jesus Christ. Come on its five month journey to build a solid foundation in your Christian faith. #Khristian #Christianity #Gospel #God #Jesus

The problems with Christian nationalism & why It’s one of the most dangerous false teachings of our day? 1. It Confuses the Kingdom of God with Earthly Nations The Bible consistently teaches that God’s kingdom is not tied to any earthly nation-state. • John 18:36 – Jesus says, “My kingdom is not of this world.” • Philippians 3:20 – “Our citizenship is in heaven.” The people of God are not defined by national borders but by faith in Christ. The church is a transnational community. This becomes clear after Pentecost, where people from many nations become one people of God. 2. It Reverses the New Testament Mission The New Testament mission is making disciples of all nations, not making one nation Christian. • Matthew 28:19 – “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations.” The church spreads through evangelism and discipleship, not through state power. 3. It Confuses the Church with the State Scripture keeps a clear distinction between the mission of the church and the role of government. • Romans 13:1–7 – Government exists to restrain evil and maintain order. • Acts 5:29 – “We must obey God rather than men.” Government has a limited, temporal role, while the church carries the spiritual mission of redemption. 4. It Tempts Christians Toward Idolatry of Nation Scripture repeatedly warns against idolatry, including trusting political powers instead of God. • Psalm 146:3 – “Do not put your trust in princes.” • Isaiah 31:1 – Warning against trusting political alliances instead of God. When national identity becomes sacred, it can become an idol. 5. It Undermines the Multiethnic Nature of the Church The gospel creates a multiethnic people of God, not a single cultural or national expression. • Revelation 7:9 – A multitude from every nation, tribe, people, and language. • Ephesians 2:14–16 – Christ breaks down dividing walls between peoples. Christian nationalism often elevates one culture or ethnicity as the “true Christian culture.” 6. It Risks Forcing External Christianity Without Heart Conversion Biblically, true faith must be voluntary and internal. • Jeremiah 31:33 – God writes the law on hearts. • John 3:3 – People must be born again. State-enforced Christianity can create cultural Christianity without genuine faith. 7. Presents a false form of the Christian faith to the world * 2 Corinthians 6:3 It creates obstacle to the gospel for non-Christian’s * Matthew 23:23 seeks to rewrite history to subvert biblical justice Christian nationalism bears false witness and creates cognitive dissonance to blind people to the comprehensive scope of the gospel. They affirm the content of the gospel, but deny its scope thereby preaching another gospel To all the non-Christians, who will look at this post this is not THE WAY or what is commonly called Christianity? It is something else. “I mean strictly to apply to the slaveholding religion of this land, and with no possible reference to Christianity proper; for, between the Christianity of this land, and the Christianity of Christ, I recognize the widest possible difference—so wide, that to receive the one as good, pure, and holy, is of necessity to reject the other as bad, corrupt, and wicked. To be the friend of the one, is of necessity to be the enemy of the other. I love the pure, peaceable, and impartial Christianity of Christ: I therefore hate the corrupt, slaveholding, women-whipping, cradle-plundering, partial and hypocritical Christianity of this land — Frederick Douglas “Woe to those who enact evil statutes And to those who constantly record mischief, So as to turn the poor away from their cause And rob the afflicted of My people of their justice, Isa 10:1-2 ““Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint and dill and cumin, and have neglected the weightier provisions of the Law: justice and mercy and faithfulness; Matt 23:23-24 —Yehoshua #christian #justice #God #Jesus #christiannationalism

In a culture where the church and its leaders are at times rightfully critiqued, there are great leaders and churches that are healthy out there. Anyone in ministry that has tried to do this thing right, PLEASE HANG STRONG! Rewards from man can be quite thin and even taken for granted by those you’ve invested much in. Ministry hurt as a leader can be one of the most PAINFUL wounds to navigate! Many of us are fighting and forced to heal in silence! YHWH sees and will reward in HIS WAY in due time! STAY THE COURSE! “He was despised and forsaken of men, A man of sorrows and acquainted with grief; And like one from whom men hide their face He was despised, and we did not esteem Him. ¶Surely our griefs He Himself bore, And our sorrows He carried; Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken, Smitten of God, and afflicted.” Isaiah 53:3-4 “And let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary.” Galatians 6:9 “Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 15:58 #church #God #Jesus #Leadership #christian

The reason I shepherd in the local church is to lead, feed, care, know, protect the flock of Elohim among me. I do online content mainly for them but people have asked for help with their faith outside our local church. Here is the opportunity to grow. Defending the faith doesn’t start with apologetics, but learning the basics of the faith. This doesn’t replace the local church but is a servant to it! This is for those who want to be on the journey to get clarity about the faith. If you aren’t currently in a local church hopefully this can be your road back to health local community. If you are in one hopefully this serves you as well. I’ve received messages from countless people asking how they chose and church? How can they get help with the foundations of the Christian faith? Where can they start? As promised, here it is! Classes, reading assignments, and tools will be a part of this. In other words by the grace of Yeshua, we gonna put you on truth in the kingdom. “until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the full knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ, so that we are no longer to be children, tossed here and there by waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, by craftiness in deceitful scheming, but speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, that is Christ,” Ephesians 4:13-15 #christian #bible #GOD #Jesus #faith pastoremase.com/the-remnant-ac…

Having a platform without pastoral guidance, local church community, peer sharpening, biblical literacy & theological & soul/character accountability leads individualistic idolatry that panders for personal affirmation, opportunistic selfish ambition and narrative control. James 3:13-18

@bk_apologist sent me this! It’s from a guy name Garfield who engages in the black conscious community. He isn’t a Christian but a skeptic. This was his exhortation to Hebrew Israelites who dog the Black church and Christianity. This is his unbiased response. I couldn’t have said it better #blackhistorymonth #christianity #christian #God #Jesus

The job of a shepherd is to    ·      Lead (1Timothy 5:17) ·      Feed (Ezekiel 34) ·      Care (Ezekiel 34) ·      Know (Proverbs 27:23) ·      Protect (Titus 1:10)   At times as many of us do the work of protection, I am appalled at the fact that good shepherds are bit by some of the people whom they trying to protect. The level of deception and biblical illiteracy is astounding and even painful. The boastful pride of the misinformed who are viewed as spiritual and informed is troubling. YHWH has shown me that He is doing a partial fulfillment of this verse. “And for this reason, God sends upon them a deluding influence so that they will believe what is false, in order that they all may be judged who did not believe the truth but took pleasure in unrighteousness. 2 Thessalonians 2:11-12 LSB

For the next few Sundays, I am going to be preaching on Breaking Free from Sexual Strongholds. Ever since the Spirit of God dropped this on me to do, I have been under severe spiritual warfare, please keep me lifted

The incomprehensibility of Elohim is the theological doctrine that, because YHWH is infinite and human minds are finite, He cannot be fully known or exhaustively understood by humanity. It does not mean YHWH is entirely unknowable, but rather that His nature, ways, and purposes exceed complete comprehension, demanding faith, humility, and trust in revealed truth.  Key aspects of this doctrine include: Definition: It is the inability of a created, limited mind to grasp the totality of an uncreated, infinite Being. When people tell me they don’t understand the Trinity or understand something about Elohim. I’m not dismissive but this attribute/perfection of YAH helps us understand better. We have to come to terms with how He reveals Himself, not tweak Him to fit our own fancy and interests. If everything about YHWH makes human sense, it’s not Him but an idol of our own making! “Great is Yahweh, and highly to be praised, And His greatness is unsearchable.” Psalm 145:3 #God #YHWH #Elohim #incomprehensible #Jesus

There is a deep desire for people to have spiritual experiences, but they aren’t discerning what that experience is rooted in. Elohim provides both concrete truth and experiences. True divine Experience comes from immutable truth and truth ALWAYS leads to transformational experiences. They are NEVER at odds, but the are siamese twins of the will of YHWH in the life of those who know Him!

Christian syncretism is a heretical and heterodoxy of the blending of Christian beliefs, doctrines, and practices with non-Christian, pagan, or secular traditions, resulting in a hybrid faith system. It involves merging diverse religious ideas—such as incorporating folk religion,, philosophy, or cultural traditions—into Christian worship, often diluting or compromising the core, exclusive tenets of the faith. Deuteronomy 4:19 And beware lest you raise your eyes to heaven, and when you see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the host of heaven, you be drawn away and bow down to them and serve them, things that the Lord your God has allotted to all the peoples under the whole heaven. Isaiah 47:13-14 You are wearied with your many counsels; let them stand forth and save you, those who divide the heavens, who gaze at the stars, who at the new moons make known what shall come upon you. Behold, they are like stubble; the fire consumes them; they cannot deliver themselves from the power of the flame. No coal for warming oneself is this, no fire to sit before! Daniel 4:7 Then the magicians, the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the astrologers came in, and I told them the dream, but they could not make known to me its interpretation. #Jesus #astrology #astronomy #bible #God

Pastor and medium? 🤔 “But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons,” 1 Timothy 4:1 Old Testament Condemnations • Deuteronomy 18:10-12”Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead. Anyone who does these things is detestable to the LORD...”. • 1 Samuel 15:23 “For rebellion is like the sin of divination, and arrogance like the evil of idolatry”. New Testament Warnings • Galatians 5:20 (NIV): “idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions” are listed as “acts of the flesh”. • Revelation 22:15 (NIV): “Outside are the dogs, sorcerers, sexually immoral, murderers, idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood”. Examples in Scripture • 1 Chronicles 10:13-14: King Saul died for being unfaithful and consulting a medium instead of the LORD. • Acts 19:19: Many in Ephesus who practiced magic burned their spellbooks after believing the Gospel. Biblical Methods for Seeking God’s Will: • Study the Scriptures: The Word of God is a “lamp to my feet” and reveals many of God’s general desires, such as sanctification, avoiding immorality, and giving thanks in all circumstances. • Pray for Wisdom: James 1:5 promises that if anyone lacks wisdom, they should ask God, who gives generously. • Renew Your Mind: Romans 12:2 instructs believers not to conform to the world but to be transformed by the renewing of their minds to “test and approve” what God’s will is. • Submit and Trust: Proverbs 3:5-6 advises to trust in the Lord and not lean on personal understanding, allowing Him to make paths straight. • Seek Godly Counsel: Consulting with wise, mature believers can help in discerning the right path. • Obey Known Commands: God often reveals the next step only after we obey the previous one. • Wait Patiently: Seeking involves waiting on the Lord’s timing, trusting that He will guide at the right time. #god #christianity #jesus #bible #christian #jesusChrist #medium #witchcraft #sorcery #demons #devil#satan #lucifer #truth

One of the things that’s missing in our conversation about what people want, need, and what God expects out of church leadership are godly examples. We’re not talking about being perfect but a healthy example of manhood, womanhood, marriage, stewardship, and the Christian life. We are too busy trying to prove we’re human versus reflecting a Christlike picture of what it means to pursue holiness! Follow me as I follow Christ shouldn’t be a wish but a reality! “But you followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, love, perseverance, persecutions, and sufferings, such as happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, and at Lystra. What persecutions I endured, and out of them all the Lord rescued me! Indeed, all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.” 2 Timothy 3:10-12 “The things you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.” Philippians 4:9

I can’t believe this is a thing and it has to even be addressed! White racist pastor calls 95% of black churches heretical 🤦🏿‍♂️😡 “And now I make one more appeal, my dear brothers and sisters. Watch out for people who cause divisions and upset people’s faith by teaching things contrary to what you have been taught. Stay away from them. Such people are not serving Christ our Lord; they are serving their own personal interests. By smooth talk and glowing words they deceive innocent people.” Romans 16:17-18 #rebrandingthechurch #pastor #racism #christian #God
