I've written copiously on my sin. This way people don't venerate me beyond what they should. They ought to resist me, and what I say. But, through power of persuasion--not coercion--be converted to not my word, but God's word.

Certainly, twice convicted on misdemeanors, some for flamboyantly rotten things, if one wishes to have my righteousness, I would wonder to what madness they possessed. Do they wish to spend six years on probation, ten years on a sex offender registry, and five months in prison? Rightly, I don't believe anyone could want my righteousness, therefore I ought not be venerated. And I've been known to cuss frequently as of late, and sleep too much. If you want my righteousness, you're a lunatic... but none can say I'm lawless either.

However, I'm a conduit to the Master. I point in His direction. I am not His mouthpiece, but a compass pointing to Him. I say the Bible must be accompanied by faith, and knowledge of the LORD. And of course I believe in the divine hierarchy of Teacher, Deacon, Elder, Pastor, Bishop, Prophet and Apostle. I think the apostolic faith is unique, and is starting to be understood these days once again, as the world falls deeper into sin.

I venerate no man on earth. But, rather, my Father in heaven. I venerate no Christ, save the Christ Who lived 2,000 years ago, died and was raised from the Dead. And in our resurrection we shall be just like Him. Not as  corruptible man, but a new creature, with the full incapacity to commit any sin or trespass. 

It is not my righteousness I elevate, but the man Christ's, who saved my soul, died upon a Roman Cross, was buried with sinners, born of the Virgin Mary, and when He returns, will return upon the clouds of heaven, and set His foot upon the Mount Olivet, and there it shall part and the gross abomination shall be tormented in the fires which proceed out of it.

That is my doctrine.

1 Thessalonians 4:17 G726 "Harp" in "Harpazo" means to "away" or be carried away. "Harpazo" means to be taken up, or carried away up, and snatched up. Christ says He'll come like a thief in the night. And then it says "we shall forever be with Him in light." G2017 But the actual word in G726 is "harpagEsometha"αρπαγησομεθα  which literally means "we are raptured." So it does talk about the rapture in the Bible.

Mmm…. I don’t think so. About 600,000,000 people were killed by regimes that forbid the practice of religion, and their justification for it is that Religion contradicts science. Not to mention, the racism of the Nazis was founded on Evolution, and the cause of the first world war was probably due to the advances of technology we saw, as people were kind of not coping with it that well, and that frustration led to the outbreak of the war. And the Holocaust was due to Scientific racism, which I outlined, so the entire cause of World War II was due to Evolutionary Biology.

But certainly, you’d be right that Religious Dictatorships aren’t good. As religion has bad sides, as well. That’s well documented. But, in the grand scheme of things, more people were killed in the name or cause of science than any other.

For me belief in God is an acceptance of a proposition of descriptive facts. 1. The Moral Evidence that Jesus taught, 2. The Physical Evidence that proves the Bible, 3. The textual evidence within the Bible itself that predicts Jesus and 4. The natural conscience of man. And 5. The coherent nature of our universe--which is what Newton described, and when he discovered Gravity everyone thought was proof God exists, because the universe had actual laws that determined it. 6. The light that shines off of a person who has God, as that's called Shekinah Glory (וְשָׁכַנְתִּי) in the Bible. And 7. The fruits of the Spirit.

Morality just is. Like Thales' Theorem. Morality exists, it's on our consciences and obeying it produces the best quality life not only for you, but for everyone around you. However, there've been societies where rape and murder was perfectly legal, that lasted for at least a millennia. That's not why Rape and Murder are wrong.

This is why so many are losing their faith. "I believe." What exactly? Do you believe in evolution, creation science, Islam, God, the universe, alien space demons, empathy? What exactly do you believe in?

I see so many Christian artists lose their faith, because they hadn't a deep knowledge of the LORD. It may not be entirely their fault, either, because I've seen a lot of Christians lose faith over Evolution because someone taught them God wasn't omnipotent. That He had to play by the rules of our cosmos. I've seen Christians lose their faith over LGBTQ---because they had no foundation of understanding right from wrong.

Unfortunately, this is the world we live in. Where not many have the Gospel preached to them in power, but rather church is a fun place we go, and hop up and down, go to the tattoo parlor down the street, get Jesus' name scribbled on our arm, then go to the coffee shop and Christian book store, and draw up enneagrams and anoint ourselves with magic waters. Get taught how to feel good about ourselves, and how to succeed in this vain life.

The fire of the LORD is about quenched in our youths, as they didn't learn the Gospel truth. Which is repentance from sin.

"And he said unto them, Go ye, and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and I do cures to day and to morrow, and the third day I shall be perfected."

"Fox" was a curse word in Roman times. While I agree with everything you're saying--and notice He's not preaching a sermon here, or in congregation and communion with God--sometimes you need to use harsh language to get the point across. Like, a Christian can kill in war, can he not? I think in some contexts---and most serious Christian authors have used foul language in literature---it's necessary to speak harsh words. Just saying...

I'm not saying Ray should start cussing in his videos--by all means--but sometimes a vulgarism is needed to add emphasis, especially when dealing with a sin. Like, again when sin is called a "Filthy Rag" we don't have an equivalent in English, but it'd be the same as calling sin "Shit".

And I'm certainly not telling anyone to make a habit out of it. Simply, though, to express disgust at a sin, sometimes you need to use words that can accurately describe it. But, Ray, don't start doing that in your video. I'm just speaking, as someone who writes literature, I do that because I'm not expressly calling what I write "Holy". It's just literature. But you should never blaspheme. That's something you ought not do. Or use filthy language. It's used in this context, to address a man who was pure evil, and it cut for that reason. There's a season to use swear words, and a season not to.
