Even during time on earth Jesus made it clear that Mary was not the object of worship!

True Blessedness
As he said these things, a woman in the crowd raised her voice and said to him, “Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breasts at which you nursed!” But he said, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and keep it!” Luke 11:27-28

In this verse, even then people were attempting to create human idols, and Jesus on multiple occasions addresses this in this chapter. Here specifically, it was directly toward attempts at false worship or misapplied blessings. The lady here tried to imply that Jesus’ mother was her focus because he came through her womb. But Jesus addresses this by showing her that this thought was wrong with the word “Rather,” a term used to end and cancel a direction previously spoken in order to show the correct path. “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and keep it.” Not a woman who merely gave birth to me. This was not the source of salvation nor something deserving of such a blessing. He reminded her the source is God and the focus is what he does for his people who keep his commandments. This addresses the idolatry in the woman’s heart and gives her the corrective steps and the proper location of focus: keeping his commandments which includes the warning of false worship and creating idols.

We as humans have this habit of wanting to make idols out of creatures(creatures are everything that is alive that was created, inckuding humans). In fact, no Bible scripture ever written or translated, ever gives approval for such things and only warns us not to do them. Even Catholic Bibles never give a single solitary example of God ever approving of the worship of Mary or any saint or prophet. The Bible never gives approval and ONLY warns about people creating statues of things to bow down to them. And yet this idolatry continues. And what is even scarier is the fact that when I spoke to an Orthodox Catholic priest, he admitted they have no scripture that gives this approval to do what they do and that the Bible does say not to do what they do. But his excuse was that he can’t stop it and so he continues to teach others to do so because he loves God and therefore their idolatry is accepted. So you see, even the leaders know what they do isn’t biblical and yet they continue to teach millions this is okay.

Revelation reveal even John in Spirit attempted to sin multiple times ..
Revelation 19:10 and 22:8-9

Let no one disqualify you, insisting on asceticism and worship of angels, going on in detail about visions, puffed up without reason by his sensuous mind ..Col 2:18

This is why it was so important that any angel was careful not to allow worship of them. They know the tendency of man is to create false gods and idols and want to bow to them. They know this is wrong and tremble at the attempts of man to do it. Even John, in front of the Known God on the Throne, tried multiple times to worship an angel right in front of God and the Lamb while He sat on the throne in heaven. And this was the Holy Spirit-filled, speaking-in-tongues John, the disciple of Christ and leader. This man decided to attempt one of the worst sins in all of the Bible, right in front of God. And it wasn’t because he was confusing the angel for God. He was in the throne room mere feet away from the Throne of God, and yet not once but multiple times he attempted to bow to this angel, even when told not to multiple times.

If this doesn’t prove how messed up mankind is, even the disciples themselves, I don’t know what does. John was in spirit, not in flesh, and still wanted to sin in front of God. Satan was not there, tempting him, nor was he guided by his flesh. He had a new, recreated spirit of salvation and still wanted to turn the angel into his focus of worship. This also tells me that sin has nothing to do with the body only, nor does it only have to do with Satan tempting you. It is our very being. This is why I don’t believe free will is given back to us at the end. We have proven that if given the chance, we will sin in flesh or outside flesh, with a dead spirit or a recreated one. If choice is given, we will sin.

Christ never taught tolerance, only mankind does!

One of the biggest lies that continues to resurface is that Christ taught tolerance and would be okay with your choices, sharing in other gods and worshiping idols, as long as you are a good person. So many so-called Christian followers have adapted this belief as though it is even remotely taught by the Gospel. And every single one of these people, like Hugh Jackman, is wrong because they don’t read the scriptures. Christ never, ever taught a single person that they could worship a different god alongside him or that there was any other way to salvation but through him. This is how you know false teaching and evil when you see and hear it. From Genesis to Revelation, the message is very clear: Without Christ, you have damnation. There is no other person or name under heaven by which you may be saved but Christ. There is no other god before Yahweh or alongside Him. It is through His begotten Son that you have access to Him, the only true God. Buddha and any other person are not allowed alongside Christ. No other way or direction is accepted, and this has been the consistent message of the whole Bible. Man can try and create whatever they wish to make themselves feel better all they want.

The gospel was not given to create peace; it was given to create separation and to divide those who will obey the one true God from those who wish to do other things. There is no middle ground. And if you call yourself a Christ Follower, your opinion has to be exactly the same as Christ’s. If not, then he is not your master and Savior, and if that is the case, there is no salvation or redemption for your soul. This is the truth, even when others get mad at it, and even when social media says otherwise. It is through Christ, by Christ, and for Christ alone that salvation is found. So pray for this man and any other lost soul who buys into this false thinking of tolerance religion. I pray that before he and others die, they repent of their direction and belief and return to the only true salvation and belief.

Works are required to Complete our Faith!

“Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up his son Isaac on the altar? You see that faith was active along with his works, and faith was completed by his works; and the Scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness”—and he was called a friend of God.” James 2:21-23

   Here’s something churches today have preached falsely, leading many people down a road of sin. The fact is, works are required to complete faith… salvational faith or any other faith. The grace and faith that are there to save are only completed and alive through corresponding works. James chapter 2 is a great chapter that enforces this rule. It proves that just claiming you are a Christ Follower and saved by the Blood of Christ isn’t enough. Your actions must align with your professed faith and your confession. This is the part most churches today have failed to teach others, for fear of people leaving the church out of judgment or guilt. Nobody wants to feel like they have to sacrifice their flesh, lust, wants, and even things you believe you need for your profession of faith to be completed and alive. Everyone wants to believe salvation is just an easy and quick way to do what you want, get everything you desire, and when you die doing what you want and getting everything you desired, while doing whatever made you happy, you get to turn around and wake up in heaven and get even more riches.

The truth is, this life is a sacrifice and battle of exactly everything you lust for, desire, and identify with against the one true God and Savior, Christ Yeshua. His sacrifice and example are for us to follow, not abuse and take for granted. It’s not a “get out of jail free” card that we can toss around whenever we want to go do what we want and flash the card later so we can feel good about ourselves again. But most churches teach that very thing: that somehow no corresponding works are required for your faith to be active, alive, and complete. And if your faith isn’t complete and is dead, then so is your salvation.

That’s the truth. Does this mean just being a good person can save you apart from Christ? Of course not. I think that we all know the Bible clearly makes this point. But our faith must produce active works that support it in order for it to work. In other words, you have to practice what you confess and/or preach. We don’t get to do whatever we want and continue in our sins unabashedly. And we can’t pretend that we are accepted by God simply because one day in the past we were baptized or that every Sunday we go to a church. Christ didn’t live and show examples of how to live for us to turn around and live the exact opposite way. He showed us his path for us to follow, and when we fall and truly repent, to give us a way back. But there is no repentance from a person that believes their life choices are acceptable to God nor attempts to change them.

“Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.” Mathew 7:19

There are consequences to our continued sins without repentance. It is real and present, and every church or teacher not teaching this truth is not following God’s words nor his instructions and should repent. Fear of losing people in the church should mean nothing against the fear of allowing those people to be lost to hell.

Church Hurt!

Church hurt refers to the emotional, psychological, or spiritual pain caused by the words, actions, or neglect of church leaders, members, or religious institutions.

Common Causes:

1. Spiritual Abuse & Manipulation: Leaders misusing scripture, authority, or dogma to control, shame, or exploit individuals.

2.Hypocrisy & Betrayal: Experiencing double standards, broken trust, gossip, or cover-ups by those in leadership or community standing.

3.Exclusion & Rejection: Being ostracized, judged, or dismissed due to differing views, lifestyle choices, identity, or personal struggles.
Unresolved Grievances: Dismissing legitimate complaints, doubts, or reports of misconduct under the guise of “forgiveness” or “submission.”

Chances are you or someone you know has gone through this in their Christian walk, regardless of denominations, at least one point or another. And when it happens there are severe consequences to this type of hurt.

Impact:

1. Loss of Faith or Community: A disruption in personal faith, deconstruction of beliefs, or complete withdrawal from religious spaces.

2.Emotional Distress: Lingering feelings of guilt, shame, betrayal, anxiety, or religious trauma.

Over the past five years, research across the Body of Christ reveals a sobering and pervasive reality: the prevalence of “church hurt” is rising across virtually every denomination. At the root of this crisis lie two primary drivers….interpersonal conflict and profound disillusionment caused by hypocrisy and moral failure in leadership.

When we examine this through a scriptural lens, the core issue becomes clear. Many assemblies have drifted from being governed by the Word of God, choosing instead to conform to secular patterns and prevailing cultural currents. Rather than serving as the pillar and ground of truth (1 Timothy 3:15), many institutions have allowed social media trends, public opinion, and pragmatic growth strategies to dictate their moral convictions and operational standards.

This cultural accommodation has directly compromised biblical leadership standards (1 Timothy 3:1–7; Titus 1:5–9). These are our standards that should follow leadership.

Erosion of Pastoral Qualifications: Appointing leaders based on charisma, platform size, social influence, or financial leverage rather than tested spiritual maturity and godly character.

Corporate and Political Orientation: Treating the local church as an enterprise measured by revenue, digital engagement, and stage visibility, rather than a spiritual body led by the Holy Spirit.

Compromised Separation: Blurring the line between the sacred and the secular to appeal to the culture, ultimately losing the distinct witness of the Gospel (Romans 12:2).

When organizational expansion, stage management, and institutional preservation take precedence over genuine pastoral care, the vulnerable are overlooked. In the noise of corporate machinery, the individual soul quietly suffering in the background is neglected; the wounded parishioner who quietly exits goes unnoticed.

Scripture repeatedly warns that when the biblical gate of character and sound doctrine is lowered, spiritual predators find an open door:

“Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.”
— Acts 20:28–29 (KJV)

When shepherds prioritize the mechanics of the institution over faithful stewardship of God’s Word, the flock is left exposed, trust is broken, and the sheep are scattered. True restoration requires a return to biblical governance, spiritual integrity, and a pastoral heart that seeks the lost and heals the brokenhearted. This is what is no longer being followed as a whole in far too many churches today. We owe it to our God and our calling to get back to this, to help stop this growing trend, especially in these times..

We have to get back to holding ourselves and leadership to God’s standards, not the world’s. Just because it’s easier to allow a leader his or her position despite their lifestyle or spiritual maturity doesn’t make it right in the sight of God, and our instructions give biblical guidance for leadership. We have to let go of the notion that the world has changed and therefore so the church has too. Our standards should be strived for, not lowered to fit the world’s standards for leadership. While still understanding that even though this is not what is required for the flock, but we have made the two positions have the same standards for far too long.

THE TRUTH NO CHURCH WANTS TO ACKNOWLEDGE.

Colossians 2:8 of the King James Bible: “Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ

Biggest Truth that Churches refuse to see and accept: The Disciples never looked at the Holy Spirit as a 3rd person, so their writing does not reveal what they never meant. Nor did they look at Jesus as a 2nd person of a three person God.

Question: If the disciples never believed in the concept of the Trinity the way the modern church believes today, which was first created centuries after their death and completion of the bible..then there is no way that their writing reveals the Trinity either, and if this is the case, why do men rely on philosophy created by men over what the disciples believed about God for salvation 

This touches on one of the most intense and foundational debates in church history: the development of doctrine versus biblical precedent.

The technical vocabulary and formal creedal formulations of the Trinity (terms like homoousios, three persons in one substance, or the formal doctrine codified at Nicaea in 325 AD and Constantinople in 381 AD) did not exist in the 1st century. The apostles were 1st-century monotheistic Jews, not 4th-century Greek-speaking theologians.

Because of this historical reality, theologians, historians, and believers view the connection between the New Testament and modern Trinitarianism through different lenses. Here is how the different sides answer your question.

1. The Historical / Unitarian View

Many historians, scholars, and non-Trinitarian Christians (such as Unitarians) agree that the disciples didn’t teach the Trinity, nor did this perspective even exist during their time. WHY?

• Judaic Monotheism: The disciples were strict Jewish monotheists whose bedrock confession was the Shema: “Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one” (Deuteronomy 6:4).
• Progressive Dogma: Modern Trinitarianism was developed centuries later, heavily influenced by Greek philosophical categories (like Platonism and Neo-Platonism) to explain Jesus to the Greco-Roman world.
• The Conclusion: Because the formal framework didn’t exist in the 1st century, reading a 4th-century creed back into 1st-century texts distorts what the original authors actually believed and intended to communicate. For those holding this view, true Christian faith should return to the simpler, sub-creeds understanding of the early disciples.

2. The Traditional / Trinitarian View

(How the Church reconciles the historical gap)

Trinitarian scholars and theologians generally agree that the formal vocabulary developed later, but they argue that the raw dynamic was present from the beginning. Their perspective relies on two main ideas:

A. Implicit vs. Explicit Revelation

Trinitarians argue that while the Apostles didn’t have the systematic word “Trinity,” their writings record experiences and claims that forced later generations to develop the concept:

• They worshiped God the Father as the single God of Israel.
• They attributed divine qualities, worship, and titles to Jesus (e.g., John 1:1, Thomas calling Jesus “My Lord and my God” in John 20:28, or Paul applying Old Testament Yahweh passages to Jesus in Philippians 2).
• They spoke of the Holy Spirit as personal and divine (e.g., Acts 5:3-4, where lying to the Holy Spirit is called lying to God).
• They placed all three together in equal baptismal and benedictory formulas (e.g., Matthew 28:19, 2 Corinthians 13:14).

From this view, the early Church didn’t invent a new God; they were forced to invent a new language to explain how Jesus and the Spirit could be divine without abandoning Jewish monotheism.

The problem is God NEVER told them this was needed nor approved it. So every single thing that resulted from this was of MAN…not GOD. It is the single greatest reason why the Christian faith has more Denominations than almost any other religion…a Total of 42 thousand different denominations claim the Christian faith and disagree.

B. The Development of Doctrine

“Trinitarians” (NOT the prophets of the Bible. Not the Disciples of Christ, and NOT GOD...) hold that theology develops like a seed into a tree:

• The Seed (1st Century): The Apostles’ lived experience and writings.
• The Tree (4th Century): The Councils of Nicaea and Chalcedon, which drew boundaries around that experience using precise language to defend against opposing views.

Why Do People Rely on Later Philosophy for Salvation?

Answer…To address the heart of your question about SALVATION:

But this Question was never ASKED of US or given to us by God. And every time man attempts to answer a question never asked of us in the first place, it leads to failure.

Most classic Christian theologians (including many early Church Fathers) would argue that salvation comes through faith in Jesus Christ, not through mastering complex philosophical creeds( But yet their actions, philosophy, and words counter such beliefs)

1. The Apostles’ Criteria: In the New Testament, salvation is attached to simple trust in Christ—e.g., “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved” (Acts 16:31) or confessing that “Jesus is Lord” (Romans 10:9).
2. The Role of Creeds: Creeds were originally built not as a checklist of intellectual philosophy required to enter heaven, but as defensive guardrails for the church community to define its public teaching against what it viewed as errors.

Scary Part to all of these….

And yet they have become the very language and view that the Church has forced billions to believe and lie and say that this is what the word of God says and means, when it never did. God’s words given to the disciples are only read the way we want to see them through our lens of philosophy, because this was forced upon us as part of our structure for our faith as a Christian. But if modern-day Trinity believers presented God the way the Church claims we must …the Disciples would identify us has hertics. And we would identify them as such too.

Your salvation was never based on your understanding or agreement to repeat Philosophy created by Pagan, Greek philosophers, or other men after the Disciples finished the gospel. It is solely through the Living Faith in Christ as the Messiah, the Only Begotten Son of God… God manifested bodily. You were never meant to identify Christ as a 2nd person of the Godhead, or the Holy Spirit as a Person. Nor does the Bible ever say that God merely DWELLS in the Father. The FATHER IS GOD; he doesn’t contain God in him…HE IS GOD, PERIOD, not a Container …not a BODY that houses GOD, like the official Doctrine of the Trinity teaches, which most people don’t even know. Man’s philosphy is the virus that has corrupted God’s church and is the underlying structure for over 42 thousand split-off denominations of Christianity.

Contentment today is struggle and sin we all are guilty of because everything in our world tells us the opposite.

“Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have” Hebrew 13:5 references 1 tim 6:9…

“But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs.” 1 Timothy 6:9

Historical context: The writer…most credit to Paul purpose

It’s imooetant that we understand throughout chapters 1–12, the author establishes heavy theology: showing that Jesus is superior to angels, Moses, and the Old Testament sacrificial system.

When you get to Hebrews 13, the author pivots to practical, everyday action.

The main message of Chapter 13 is: 
Live out theology in real life: Faith isn’t just an abstract belief; it must show up in how you treat people, manage money, honor commitments, and handle trials.

Anchor yourself in Christ’s immutability: In a world of changing doctrines and heavy pressures, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever” (v. 8).

Endure rejection outside the system: Just as Jesus suffered outside the city gate, believers must be willing to leave behind legalistic, comfortable social structures and bear his reproach (vv. 12–14)

All of this point and directly attacks everything we do and believe in today. Social media and culture tells us to do the exact opposite and yet none of truly take the time to see this because it makes feel guilty. We don’t want to see anything in our religious beliefs that counters our notion of ourselves or puts us directly at odd with the culture and societal structures of today. Why? Because it puts us on a path to be destroyed in the flesh. This is why Paul uses both sexual desires with the lust of money because all of it was tied into the culture and people Paul was trying to preach to. These people had turned back from Christ path to gain back the pleasures of the social security and standards of others around them. They were being put into jail, their jobs were being taken, and they were being outcasted by their own families in most situations.

This is exactly what is set up today. You will suffer both in hardships and social acceptance if you truly hold to your beliefs.  This is the test and reason Paul is addressing this. Even Paul was in the midst of the same hardship and imprisonment because of his choice to follow Christ and not the standards and acceptance of the culture and nations actions.

SHOW HOW DO I TAKE THIS VIEW INTO MY LIFE FOR APPLICATION?

Questions you should ask yourself about these scriptures

1. Orthopraxy Follows Orthodoxy: What you believe about God (Hebrews 1–12) must shape how you treat people and handle money (Hebrews 13).

2.Contentment is a Mindset, Not a Number: Contentment comes from relying on an unchanging God rather than fluctuating circumstance.

3..Radical Community: Love isn’t passive; it manifests through hospitality, visiting the marginalized, honoring commitments, and generosity.

4. Reflection & Application Questions Relational: Where can I show practical hospitality or support to someone who feels isolated or in need this week?
Financial: In what areas of my life am I relying on financial assurance rather than trusting in God’s presence?

Finally …on a Personal level: How can I practice intentional contentment with what I currently have today?

Man’s own logic and traditions are never the path of God’s people.

• Proverbs 3:5–6: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.”

1. ​The Fall of Jericho (Joshua 6): * Human logic: Marching and blowing trumpets around fortified walls makes no tactical military sense.
   • ​God’s logic: Obedience brings down the city walls without a single weapon drawn.
2. ​Feeding the 5,000 (John 6:5–13):
   • Human logic: A few loaves and fish cannot feed a crowd; send them away.
   • God’s logic: Multiplication happens when you yield small resources to divine power.
3. ​The Cross (1 Corinthians 1:18):
   • Human logic: Execution signifies total defeat and failure.
   • God’s logic: Sacrifice secures eternal victory and salvation.

​Practical Application & Discussion

• Where are you overthinking? Identify areas where you are trying to make God fit into your or mans logic, where you doubt his Word without any biblical evidence that it’s not true.
• Faith Over Formula: God rarely works through standard human formulas.
• Question of Faith: Are you willing to obey even when the instruction feels impractical or goes against mans logic?
• Action Step: Pray for discernment to spot where your human reasoning is causing doubt, and choose to trust scripture over circumstance or traditions.

“See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ.”….Colossians 2:8

These are the philosophies of men that they created and added to mankind, creating the denominational wars that have resulted in over 42 thousand different Christian denominations on Earth today.

1. Homoousios (Consubstantiality / Same Essence)
The Concept: The central philosophical breakthrough of the Creed was using the Greek term homoousios (“of the same substance” or “consubstantial”).
The Meaning: It established that God the Father and Jesus Christ the Son are not merely similar in nature, but share the exact same divine essence and substance.

2. Classical Trinitarianism
The Concept: While belief in the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit existed earlier they weren’t Considered a Trinity nor 3 destict persons, the Nicene Creed formalized Trinitarian theology.

The Meaning: It defined God as a Trinity- one God in three distinct Persons (hypostases), co-equal, co-eternal, and unified in single divine nature.

3.Arianism (Anti-Subordinationalism)
The Concept: The main controversy prompting the Creed was Arianism, led by the priest Arius, who argued that Jesus was a created being (“there was a time when the Son was not”).

The Meaning: The Creed explicitly rejected this, establishing that Christ was “begotten, not made” (gennethenta, ou poiethenta), meaning He was not a created entity in time, but eternally generated by the Father.

4. Eternal Pre-existence & Dual Nature of Christ
The Concept: The Creed outlined the metaphysics of the Incarnation.
The Meaning: It asserted that the Son existed before all time (“Light of Light, very God of very God”) and took on real human flesh for human salvation, affirming both His complete divinity and full humanity.

5. Universal (Catholic) Orthodoxy and Imperial Unity
The Concept: Before Nicaea, Christian belief varied widely by region. The Creed established the philosophy of a single, unified, binding confession of faith (one holy catholic and apostolic Church).

The Meaning: It marked a transition toward using creedal standards to define orthodox belief, where dissent from the formal creed was classified as heresy.

I present this to you once again to express the fact—no, the absolute fact—that none of this was given to the disciples, taught by Christ, or by prophets of old. Please let this sink in and be freed from this. Mankind is the greatest source of idolization of their own being. Man continues this need to show that they have figured out how to explain God, and yet the Gospel of salvation requires none of it. God never asked for the finite to be fully able to explain the Infinite because it’s impossible..

Our living faith (which includes action, not dead faith) believes that He, God, exists. He is a rewarder of those who seek him, and the Messiah sent was His ONLY begotten, the child foretold in Isaiah 9:6. The Christ, Son of the Living God, is the ONLY way to God, the Father, because of His death, resurrection, and perfect life. Because in Christ is the fullness of Jehovah bodily, God manifested on Earth. And because of Yeshua’s sacrifice and BODILY Resurrection, He now gives us His Spirit to live in us, also known as the Holy Spirit, who will fuel and guide us to the will of the Father. Through Christ, by Christ, the ONLY mediator between God and Man. This is Salvation and the absolute truth of the Bible. This is the truth, not our philosophies and theories in our attempt to explain how it works. Truth can only be given by His word and what that word meant during the time of the writing to His disciples and prophets. We cannot rewrite their beliefs to fit our concepts and cultural meanings. Nor can we simply make up terms and meanings never given to the original writers and stamp it out as some kind of requirement to accept for salvation to work. Yet, billions do..

Children of Blood and Bone: False gods and false religions…False spiritual influences on Black Culture.

As a societal described “black man”(My identity lies solely with the one who saved me, Christ Yeshua), who believes it’s nothing wrong with placing a story that has people of our pigment on screen. I believe our Ethnic group needs more examples of positive roles played in movies that remove us from the stereotypes of ignorance. So when something like this comes along, I’m hurt and torn. The actors in this movie will most likely do the culture proud for their performance in acting. The graphics look amazing and promising, avoiding the past mistakes of lower-budget movies with horrible screen candy. This Black Panther-like movie will most likely gross millions, if not billions. Black culture is going out to support it because it’s a “Black Movie”, and Whites will go see it to prove that they aren’t Racist to themselves and others. All of this is a win for the movie and the book it was produced in vision with. So then why the concern?

This is the concept and purpose of this movie…..

Children of Blood and Bone is a fantasy book by Tomi Adeyemi about a girl named Zélie who tries to bring back magic. The story is based on West African religion and uses many gods, called Orishas.

The Plot and Magic aka DIVINATION

• Zélie Adebola: A young girl with white hair who is a divîner.
• The Loss of Magic: A cruel king named Saran killed the magic users, called the maji, and took away their power.
• The Journey: Zélie works with a princess named Amari to find sacred artifacts and wake the gods up again.

The Gods and Spirituality

• The Orishas: Instead of one single God, the story is built on West African Yoruba beliefs with multiple gods and goddesses.
• Divine Connection: Each type of magic user gets their power from a specific god who represents elements like fire, water, healing, or death.
• Reclaiming Power: The gods are tied to the blood and heritage of the maji people, which is why Zélie must reconnect with them to heal her land.

Now, right away, you are going to claim…..”it’s just a movie”. “It’s not real”. Or that white-based movies do the same thing with their movies, like Thor, “Ghost Rider”, even Marvel Series like “Scarlet Witch”, so what’s the difference? They are all considered wrong in the eyes of Jehovah. And you would be right. However, my issue is our culture. We are a people largely controlled by traditions, social standards, and rebellion. This generation especially is in danger of being the worst generation ever in the black culture. So when we have adult actors and directors taking on the direct purpose of bringing attraction and encouragement for black people to return to worship their ancestors and African false deities in the real world and actually promote them, then you step into a different world. Movies like Sinners were a perfect example of this. When the director and actors are actually holding prayers to these false gods and encouraging people to leave Christ for these gods, it’s a different ballgame altogether. This is what makes these movies different from Thor, Ghost Rider, and others. Those movies don’t turn around and promote false gods to a culture of people, like these lost souls are. Christ is nowhere to be seen; in fact, they are implying that it’s a celebrated step to leave him in the interview below.

This is when movies aren’t just movies. They are doing ritual prayers on set while invoking these spirits during the movie-making. This is what Black culture ignored or was ignorant about, and yet millions and millions supported this movie because it was a “Black Movie”. This is what made it dangerous because they are telling people to leave their God for Voodoo gods and false worship and praying to ancestors. This is the type of culture these movies are pushing, and yet here we are again with an all-black movie like Black Panther that teaches yet again about a false god as the source and connection to power. And millions of untrained, unsaved, and easily influenced people will once again turn to it for a source of encouragement and will take things from this movie to dive into voodoo and false religions.

Christian men and Women will go because they see their ethnicity as their identity, even though the bible tells you over and over again that your identity is found ONLY in Christ. Not in your gender, not in your country of origin, not in your tongue of speech….nothing is your identity now but Christ. I exist through him, because of him, and for him. And you can’t serve two masters, as the bible says. You can’t be a Christ Follower AND…..a feminist. A Christ Follower and a Black supremacist, white supremacist, Jew, Gentile, Black, White, …nothing. Why…because all of this means NOTHING. The world has fooled you into believing that these things matter because the god of the air and system of the world, Satan, needs your focus away from Christ and that you should focus your existence around them. You can’t. You can’t hold on to any personal beliefs and identity outside of a Blood-Bought Christ Follower. This is the truth that the Bible teaches and is the truth that will make others hate you and even hate Christ and turn to other gods because they finally see that they can’t have both. This is why they turn to other religions that were created out of comic books or made up to support hatred, race, and culture wars. This is what you are up against, and if you don’t support it …you will be cast down and accused.

Though they know God’s righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them. Romans 1:32

My profession of Faith to the Gospel of Christ.

Aren’t you yet tired? Tired of people coming up with their own ways and stamping God on it. Coming up with more requirements not writing in scripture for you to follow, confess, or do for the blood is Christ to work. Or rearranging the Gospel every time it reveals clearly that their denominational beliefs are wrong or their traditions are wrong. Tired of people trying to recreate God into their own image. I know I am. The original text of Bible and Christ is suppose to be our direction but man has made over 42,000 different Christian based denominations and the majority of them born out a need to recreate and or add to the Gospel presented by the Disciples and prophets of old. So this below is my position and my manifesto and profession.

    I no longer place myself within the limits or requirements of mankind and theology. I believe solely in the authority and power of the original Gospel of Christ Yeshua. I believe exactly what the Word of God reveals in word-for-word contextual and historical facts ONLY. And I reject all attempts by men and denominations to create their own ways based on their own theories or theology that are not scriptural, contextual, and historically shown in the written word-for-word letters and scrolls of the Bible. Every single man-made tradition, philosophy, or theological concept created thereafter the death of the disciples, I reject as additions and requirements of salvation. The ONLY Gospel was given to the disciples AND prophets of old, and therefore no new concept or understanding created by men thereafter can override or recreate more requirements upon the salvation given and paid for by the blood of the Risen Christ. What they believed, I believe…what knowledge they had about God is all that was needed for them, and therefore it is all I need. There is no new gospel!
