Luke Belmar Made Millions. Then God Humbled Him. (EP 212)

I was the man with millions of dollars. I didn't need God to begin to see the hypocrisy and the masks. Those people are losers. If Jesus is that, that's not real. I got a message from a billionaire. $65 million telling me how he hasn't left the house in 10 years. Because he has a broken relationship with his wife. He is a man that is imprisoned. Yet he has billions. It doesn't matter what position you're in. If you don't have the love of Jesus, then you're not fulfilled. I go from waiting tables to becoming a world-renowned name, making millions of dollars in business. I stood there in the palaces and in the mansions, and I looked at these people, and I said they have money, but they don't have the truth. Got to the top, and I was like, this is them. There's nothing. This was a joke. God said, no more business, Luke. I said, OK, what should I do? Said, have faith. The old man had to die, had to be crucified, and the new man had to be born. I decided to give everything to God. My money, my resources, everything. A story that the internet has never heard. Hey, before we get into today's episode, I want to share two quick things with you. First, if these videos have meant anything to you, if they've encouraged your faith or helped you see the gospel a little bit more clearly, I just want to ask you to subscribe. A lot of people tune in every single week, and haven't hit the button yet. It only takes two seconds, and it helps us keep putting these conversations in front of people who need them. And the second thing, this one I've honestly been really excited to say, I'm officially announcing our ministry's biggest live event to date, Open Heaven live podcast tour. It's happening November 8th this year at the Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory in Irving, Texas. This is going to be a night centered around worship, faith, real conversations, and genuine community.

I recommend not buying from random resellers online. I believe this is going to be a really special night, and I hope to see you there. All right, let's get into that episode. What's going on, guys? Welcome back to another episode of the Briskroffer podcast. I'm Brisk, and today I'm here with a very special guest. I'm honored to sit down with him. We've got Luke Belmar with us. How are you, brother? You know, I'm doing well, how are you? Good, thank you for having me. It is beautiful to be back in LA. I know why people live in LA. Amazing weather, amazing food, organic food, and it's great. No, now, would you ever live in LA again? No, it's the city of the fallen angels. So you wouldn't, where you wouldn't live here, is there anywhere else on the planet that you would like to live? I live in my body, so I am comfortable anywhere. Great. Well, I'm super excited. I got a ton of questions for you, but really kind of start off. I want to know your origin. I mean, for people that do know you or don't know you, can you kind of give us a little bit of background on who you are and what life was like growing up? So every podcast that I've done before this has usually been about business, entrepreneurship finance, and it has been a podcast about trying to tell people about the material things of the world that they need to solve. But I've never actually told my story. Usually the person that sits the interviewer has an agenda. They have a narrative. They have something that they're trying to scheme, but you as a brother in Christ, this is the first time that I'm actually able to sit down with somebody who worships the same Messiah. So I'll tell you my story, a story that the internet has never heard. My name is Lucas. They call me Luke. It's easier in English. I was born in El Salvador, Central America. My parents were missionaries in Communist Cuba before they were kicked out by the government or preaching and for teaching. And then they moved to El Salvador where I was born in a bread basket. And my parents were administering to people there in the gangs, in the favelas. And if you understand a little bit of El Salvador, which is where I was born, it was a very tumultuous place. It got so scary. At gunpoint, my parents were threatened that they had to leave the country. So they went to my father prayed and was like, where should I go? And the Lord told him Spain, which at the time was the witchcraft capital of Europe. And the atheist capital of Europe. And they went and they ministered there for 10 years. Now I say, I'm from Argentina. You'll never hear me say I was born in Argentina. I say, I am from Argentina because I grew up in Spain, but then I moved to Argentina. And then at the age of 11, I moved to Argentina because my grandmother was sick. So my grandmother from my father's side. When I arrived to Argentina at 11, I was brought up in a Christian household. My father, my mother, very good, always together. Always bringing me to the teaching and the noses and the knowledge of Jesus. But I was a child. All I had was my desires, my intentions, my narratives, my what I wanted for my life. And as you said, I began to see those that profess to love Jesus. And I began to see the hypocrisy and the masks and the cracks form. And I was like, I do not want that. To me, those people are losers. I don't want that. So I said, at the age of 16, I'm leaving. And with $200 in a suitcase, I went to the United States. Where'd you land in the United States when you landed? I landed in upstate New York. Wow. And I started working at a small camp, pressure-washing basketball courts, and cleaning toilets. And it's a little place called Scroon Lake, New York. And Hudson from Comfort, the brand, the Ecommerce brand. He actually has a lake house there. So when I told him the story, he was like, bro, nobody knows this place. Like, there's only 1,000 people. So he's my confirmation of the legitimacy of this story. And so I arrived to the United States and very hurt, very hurt by the false city of it all. But my intention was, because I saw my parents always going to churches asking for money, asking for resources. And nobody would budge an eye. Everybody had their own selfish desires. Everybody said they love God, but they didn't actually love God. They love themselves. And then they went to church. Yeah. Well, isn't that a common theme, though? Like John Justin, where you grew up. But I mean, I was telling you a little bit of my story. It may be manifest in different fonts, whether it's about money or about something else, right? For sure. And the reality is, I saw through the illusions, and the illusions were not very convincing. So I told my father, you know what? Like, I'm not going to depend on other people. I'm going to go and make my own money. So I'm going to start doing sales. I'm going to start making money, figuring things out. So I went to Bible school. I learned about the Word of God. I learned about who God is. I learned about Jesus. I learned about how He came, as God birthed through Mary, the Virgin, the glitch in the matrix, the miracle, to teach us how to live, to teach us how to serve, to be like Him. But not only that, not only did He come and teach us how to live, He came to die for our sins. And when I began to realize these things, I was mesmerized at the fact that only God could save us. So God Himself had to send Himself, and He had to pay the price to the God of this world with blood, just like Aslan, in the book, in the Chronicles of Narnia, it's an allegory. And I fell in love with Him. I fell in love with Him because He loved me. And the love was so compelling. It was something that had never experienced. But it still hadn't actualized in my life. And it hadn't actualized because I wasn't walking in full faith. I still wanted to do what I wanted to do, which was I wanted to be successful, make money, achieve things. So I was in Bible school, and I was following this girl at the time. And she said, I'm going to Liberty University. I'm like, OK, all tag along. So I signed up, got my Liberty ID and went to Liberty. I said, what should I study? Mind you, I have never told anybody this. Wow. I have never told anybody my story. So I arrived to Liberty University in love with this girl, who I thought I was going to marry. And then I got an email from her father saying, you are not allowed to see my daughter anymore. So I was like, well, I just moved my entire life. I did this Bible school thing. I fell in love with Jesus. Now I fell in love with this girl. Now I want to follow this American dream, make money. Like, my mind was just confused. I'm in this country that I've never been in. I have a couple hundred dollars. I'm broke. I was trying to figure things out. What took place was something very interesting, because not only did God bring me to Liberty, but he was like, what should we study or what should we learn? Because I always dialogue with God. And it's always we. It's not me. It's always we. It's the dynamic of this dynamic dual. He said, do pastoral studies. So I'm like, OK, so I have two years of biblical school under my belt. What have I become a pastor? And then I go and I start listening to pastoral leadership classes. And I look at the men and I'm like, no, no, no. This is way too much responsibility, you know? Like, these people are too real. Like, I don't want to offend God by calling myself a pastor. You know, like, this is not it. So let me go do international business. I mean, go study international business. Because I wanted to make money, I wanted to travel the world. And then I went into my first international business class. And the international business professor asked him the first question, "Have you ever been overseas?" And he said, "No." So this guy that's trying to teach me about how to do business with people overseas has never been overseas. Like, "It's all a scam." So I dropped out of liberty. But I was able to meet my wife there, my beautiful wife. And we got married a few years later. I've been with her ever since, 11 years, the only woman I've ever been with. And she said, "Hey, you know what? I want to be a doctor." So we went with her. He said, "You're from Georgia. I went to Georgia." And I started making money on the internet. My brother Nate, which he's on the internet as well, he started learning about e-commerce. The year was 2016. And in that time, I was also waiting tables. And somebody told me about Bitcoin and crypto. I didn't know much, but I knew that it was more real than the dollar. I knew that making money online was better than waiting tables. So I was like, "Let me just full send it and go." At that moment, I was like, "Okay, I'm pretty intelligent." E-commerce is brand new, crypto is brand new, and I started to make money. Lots of money. Millions a month. Now I was making money, gaining weight, eating fast food, living for myself. But deep down, I still wasn't fully fulfilled. I wasn't complete because I wasn't walking in my true design. So I continued to make money, made money in crypto, Bitcoin goes from $500 to $120,000. And I think the year was 2024. God gets ahold of me. And it's at the peak of my success. It's at the peak of my money. It's at the peak of my fame. It's at the peak of my personal brand. But I was not fulfilled. And I stood there in the palaces and in the mansions. And I looked at these people and I said, "They're not like me." They have money, but they don't have the truth. And I felt sorry for them. Like your story, you were at the pits, but I was at the top, but it was the same. The emptiness was the same because it doesn't matter what position you're in. If you don't have Christ, and if you don't have the love of Jesus, then you're not fulfilled. It doesn't matter what you do. So God said, "No more business, Luke." I said, "Okay, what should I do?" But have faith. Okay, sounds good. So I just started working and collaborating with God and spending time with Jesus. And he has been mentoring me. He has been teaching me. And over the last two years, my brand has grown. But I've been quiet. You know, all the videos that people see on the Internet of Luke Belmar is the old version of me. It's the Internet. Luke Belmar. It's the money Luke Belmar. It's the Luke Belmar of fame and the Luke Belmar of crypto and all these things. And that is no longer the version that I am because when you are born again, that means that the old man has died. And that means that the old man's ways have died. My money, my resources, my time, my attention, my energy, everything. And that's where we are today. Wow. I got so many questions. Someone unpacked with you. I guess there's like so much. And thank you for sharing your story. First of all, I'm so encouraged. I mean, I guess just to hit that back off of something recently, the most recent thing you just set out of all that, you're quietness off the Internet. You know, that was intentional because of you spitting time with Jesus. But is there any other intentionality behind your silence on online? I needed to evolve. The old man had to die, had to be crucified. And the new man had to be born. And that's a process. People think that becoming saved is this idea that you say a little prayer and then you just go on with your business. No, it's a transfiguration. It's a process. And that process is a lifetime process. It's a process that takes time. And I didn't want to go back to the Internet unless I was clear on my mission. Yes. I was clear on what God wanted me to do. And now we are back. Yeah. Can you explain to me, because solitude with God is so important. I mean, when you read the scriptures, one of the major things I'm encouraged by by Jesus when I read the scriptures is, he cares about the people he interacts with. He's super intentional. But he's seen running from the crowds more than he is running to them. I mean, he's running from the crowds to get alone with the Father because he knew how important it was to be alone with the Father. And you're mentioning that that's crucial to your life, which crucial in my life, that's crucial to anyone who sincerely loves God and follows them. What does that time with Jesus look like for you? Silence, obedience, no narratives, no agenda, rest. Be still and know that I am God and let him heal you. So when you're sitting with Jesus and you're in the silence, is it just a waiting to hear what he says next? I'm not waiting. I'm obeying the fact that he said, be still. So when you're, I guess what I'm trying to ask is when you're listening, I'm not listening, I'm still. And then if he speaks, he speaks, and if he doesn't, he doesn't, but I am still. Gotcha. Okay. And we were talking earlier about the Holy Spirit, love the Holy Spirit. The Bible, John 14 says that he teaches us things, bring conviction. How has the Holy Spirit been transformative and a key pinpoint in your faith journey as of late? The Holy Spirit is not the only spirit that exists. There are many spirits. There's a spirit of fear, the spirit of greed, the spirit of lust. As a vessel, you get to choose which spirit you want to be possessed by. You get to be possessed by lust, greed, fear. But the word says God has not given us a spirit of fear. Spirit is, what is a spirit? A spirit is a person is a person, but of what power, sound, mind and self control. So I asked myself, because once you bring Jesus into your life, the Holy Spirit comes and sends upon you and dwells with you. So once you have the Holy Spirit living in your vessel, now the question is, do you allow the Holy Spirit to work or are you going to be the one that works? Because if you are the one that allows the Holy Spirit to work, then you are just a vessel of righteousness that operates and does what he says. So you have no plans, no agenda, no narratives to be like Jesus is to walk by faith, not by sight, to walk by faith, not by sight, and to walk in purity and in connection to be legit in his eyes. So when I went with the Holy Spirit taught me was Luke, you're doing things for yourself. And even though I had this idea of, oh, I'm a Christian or I'm a follower of God, or you know, like I go to church, what God cares about is, are you legit before him? In secret, in private, behind closed doors. So what the Holy Spirit taught me was, Luke, what is it that you love the most? The Holy Spirit speaks to me many times in questions so that I can reflect. And I began to see people around me possessed by other spirits, spirits of greed, spirit of money, spirit of desire. And I saw their life go to hell literally, and then I said, that's not the answer. So I said, Holy Spirit, use me. And what that means is literally, use me, use me for you. From thus we come to thus we shall return. So in that process of understanding that we are finite, but he is infinite, that we are only vessels to be used by him. I re-dedicated my life to God. Wow. Okay. So you mentioned, I want to kind of get into here in a moment about you're seeing people possessed by spirit of greed and all that other stuff in a second. But you mentioned being a Christian or a follower of God, do you consider yourself a Christian? Let me reframe that. Jesus, when he was walking on this earth, he did not say, are you a Christian? Are you a Christian? He looked at them and said, follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. Christians were a label that was imposed upon people that were the early followers of Jesus. Yeah. But nowadays that word has been so trampled and so corrupted and so misused. When I say, I'm a Christian, it's not about what I think a Christian is, but what that other person, the other person that's speaking to me, what they're impression of Christians. Christianity is, which is, like you said, your pastor, he's ran away with a million dollars and cheated on his wife, and you're like, "If that's a Christian, I don't want that." That was the narrative that had been portrayed. So let me say this, I may follow Jesus. Do you think it's wrong that people associate themselves as being a Christian? If you asked me, "Hey, are you a Christian?" I would say, "Yes." Now I agree with you. I could go to the South where there's plenty of more churches and say, "Hey, are you a Christian?" And a ton of people would say, "Yeah, I'm Christian." Now I can only be sure of my own salvation, right? Like it's not right of me to make a judgment statement about other people, person in my eyes. Because again, I can't see someone's heart, only God can see their heart. Granted fruit is a good indicator of someone's life. But do you think it's wrong that someone would be like, "I'm a Christian?" All that matters is, are you real before God? Not about labels. God doesn't care about labels, doesn't care about words. Tell me what Christian is in Chinese. You know what it is? Exactly. It's just a word. What is it an Arabic? You know what I'm not? It's just a word. What matters is the intention of the heart. So what I, my deepest desire is that when I die, that Jesus looks at me and says, "Well, done." My good and faithful servant. Not about labels. Interesting. So, hinting on, you know, you mentioned, you grew up, your drive was, you know, financial success, money and all those things. And it was driven because I wanted to do good, but I saw that nobody was helping my parents. So I said, "Let me just carry my own weight and go make my own money because let me not depend on these hypocrites." Yeah. So that was kind of like the leading indicator. Yeah. That's so interesting. I think a lot of people, there's this quote I heard where it's like, "If the devil can't make you sin, I'll make you busy." And so like there have been times in my life where I have been deceived by something that's good. It's easy to be like, "What's a God-dore and what's a bad-dore?" It's like, "Okay, yeah, choose the God-dore of a bad-dore." The hardest thing for anyone is what's a God-dore and a good-dore. So I think that's very fascinating, very profound. How do you now, in this moment, how do you define success? I don't care about success. I only care to serve God. So is success serving God? There is no success. There's only living for God or living for yourself. So you don't think all these terms, all these labels, all these words that people have attributed to entrepreneur money, none of this matters. Interesting. So you wouldn't define anything as being successful. What I mean by that question is, you're right. Like the entrepreneur might be like, "Yeah, success is bringing in X amount of money a year," or another person might say, "Well, success is having a family with four kids," or success is owning the car collection or the watch collection or many things. So you wouldn't even define success as just knowing God. I am mesmerized by God's love, his desire to save me. I am nothing. So in this state you're in right now, where you said, "You're just, God's like half faith, and now you're just being still." And God speaks, He speaks, if He doesn't, He doesn't, you're being still. What do you call it this season right now for you? Is it a lifetime? Is it a season? Is it, explain that to me? Who knows? Talk for me to think about all I do is act now to honor Him, tomorrow we'll take care of itself. So how's your perspective of money changed now from before you viewed money to after you viewed money? I used to be a scavenger. I used to scavenge for money. I used to hoard money, and then I realized that the Messiah had no money, that He walked with sandals, and then He went and spent time with the tax collector in the prostitute, and that if God does not need anything, who am I to live a long life? Who am I to desire things? I have no desire. Do you steward things that God's given you? Do you steward finances? I have people that manage things. So you can just focus on Him so that I can rest and then be still. So I want to ask about that because there's an interesting, I see money as a resource. Money does not define me. When you read Matthew and Jesus is speaking on the mount, He says that rain falls on the adjust and the unjust money is everywhere, it's where is your heart? So when God says give, I give, when God says make, I make, it's not about money, it's about following Him. If I die today with $10 million in the bank account, it doesn't mean anything. If I die with zero, it doesn't mean anything, it's just energy. Money is like a key, right? It's like a key and it lets you unlock doors. People want to walk through a door and they're frustrated so they need money to unlock the door. But if you're just chilling, you don't need to unlock doors, God opens the doors. Yeah. So why do I need money if I have God? I see what you're saying. Yeah, that's one of the things I really want to ask you about the practicality and discipline side of things. And this comes from a guy that's worth millions of dollars. So somebody on the other side of the screen is like, who is this reader? I have to go to my job tomorrow and I have to work as I have to pay my bills. But I look at you and I say, all of these bills are self-imposed. You're rent is self-imposed. Your bills are self-imposed. Yeah, but what about your car bills self-imposed? Your mortgage is self-imposed. These are all things that you have chosen that you want. So now you have to keep up. So you're keeping up with your own delusion. So it's a rat race. There's Adam and Eve when they commune with God in the garden. God gave them everything that they needed. So let me ask you about desires and maybe hobbies, per se. Because that was something that I've always wondered, you know, let's say someone has a watch collection per se, right, or let me give you this example. So I had a coworker when I was 18. I used to work on boats in Florida and he was double my age. He was in his mid-30s and he did not want anything to do with God. And I would talk to him about Jesus constantly, sweet man, but deep down didn't want anything to do with Jesus. And he would always tell me, "Brice, if Jesus gives me a bunch of money, then I'll believe in him." But he was a bad steward of his money he already had, you know? So he obviously never got any money and he would look at me and blame God for not having money. Well, part of me would look at the outward of what he's doing with his money. He would split our tips at lunch time and let me keep everything we had past lunch, just because he wanted to go get a scratch off across the street, whereas I would look at him and go, "Someone who didn't have a lot of money in his bank account, that guy obviously had a money problem," whereas like there's people that could have loads of money in their bank account and that stuff doesn't have a grip on their heart. They didn't have a money problem. They had a problem of greed. So money is not inherently sinful. Money is just money. It's just energy, it's not sinful. If you have bills, go take care of your family. If you have to go work, God made work. God made everything. Right? Like God told Adam, God told Eve, like, "Hey, you have to go work. Working is part of our design." But it's like, "Do you work to make money? Do you work for yourself? Or do you work as unto the Lord?" Okay, seriously? "Do you go?" Because we're speaking to an audience that is striving to be like him. So when you go to work, thinking about making a paycheck, are you thinking about covering your bills? Are you living in anxiety? Or are you doing things to honor him? Yeah. The paycheck is just a means for you to buy food. But what happens to the grocery store shuts down in the next pandemic? Where are you going to get your food? You're going to be dependent on the system of the beast. Go read revelations. It's upon us. In the Gospel of Luke, Jesus sends out the disciples, and not just the twelve, he sends out the seventy-two. And he looks at them and he says, "Bring no knapsack. Bring no extra tunic. Don't bring an extra pair of shoes. Go and learn to trust me." So they go and they be sent out and he gives them the Holy Spirit, he breathes the Holy Spirit into their bodies and they go out and they come back and they return. Then at the end of the Gospel of Luke, I think in Luke 22 or 23, he's like, "Hey, do you remember that time that I told you not to bring a knapsack, not to bring a tunic, not to bring an extra pair of shoes?" He were learning to trust me while I was here, while I was in the flesh with you on earth. And they were like, "Yeah." He says, "Okay, now that I'm ascending into heaven, I'm not going to leave you alone. I'll send you the helper." But he's like, "Bring an extra knapsack. Bring an extra tunic. Bring an extra thing." So I want to ask you how do you balance the faith, the trusting in God, to be the provider, to be, bring provision, whatever that means as a blanket statement, and also for lack of better terms, like using common sense, being good Stuart thinks like that. Common sense comes from God. Most people are living in a delusion. Most people are living. They look at the dollar bill and it says in God we trust. They don't trust in God. They trust in the money when it has an illuminati sign on it. They don't see that they're slaves. they see it, but they don't see it because their hearts far from God. We don't need money. We need him. If everybody understood this, we wouldn't be in the system that we're in. When a man builds a business, does he build it to steal or does he build it to honor God? God is the one that provides. God is the one that gives wealth, not you running schemes and you running funnels and you running clickbait in order to get people to convert into customers. Yeah. So as God has been changing my life, mind you, I've made a lot of money, but my money does not belong to me. None of it. God could drop me dead now. And then I would have to be accountable for my heart and my actions to him. Yeah. So if God blesses me and God gives me something to whom much is given what much is required. So if God gives me something, then may I be found faithful and stewarding it for His glory. Yeah. So if God blesses you and God makes your businesses successful, not you, make it successful. Now you can as I said, look at all the things that my mighty hands have done. And then God in one instant turned them into a beast. Yeah. So that he would be humbled. So God humbled me and he kept me in the wilderness like a beast, running around in loops like many of these Christians, running around in loops, living for themselves, taken an espresso shot of Jesus on Sunday, then going back into Babylon and worshiping themselves. Well, yeah, that story from Daniel was powerful on Nebuchadnezzar because Daniel warns him, Daniel was a slave and exile. And because enclosed chambers and behind closed doors, he honored God, God excelled him and God made him known amongst the nations. God put him in the palace to take care of everybody. Not for him. I didn't care about what he wore. I didn't care about making money. He cared about being legit before God's eyes. That's all I care about. I think that's so fascinating. So a few weeks ago I was reminded by the Lord. We're not doing him any favors. Like I don't do God a favor by having a podcast like talking about the Bible. You know what I mean? Like I'm not doing him a favor. God doesn't need me. He doesn't need you. He doesn't need any of us. You know, and I was still reminding that kind of like laughed out loud. I'm like, well, it's such a sweet reminder, you know, because that's what the that's what the world does. It's like busy, busy, busy. Like how often do you tell someone like, hey, how are you doing? They're like, good, I'm busy. It's like, is it really good to be busy? Busy, busyness, business. It's kind of crazy world we live in. Is that is that the it's a world full of sin and darkness? So can you explain to me, is that the matrix? Yeah, the matrix is a system, Neil, prison of the mind, fear, fear or faith. You act by fear, you act by faith. When Jesus was walking on water and Peter looks at him and says, if you are him, if you are Jesus, tell me to come and walk on water and I will come and says, come and begin to walk on water just like Jesus. Just like Jesus. But then when you became afraid, he began to sink. When your life is a mess, that doesn't mean life is perfect. Everybody will die. There's pain, there's suffering, there's health issues, all these things that I know, I know. But when you have fear and not faith, then you begin to sink. When you have fear in your business, things go south. When you have fear in your relationships is my husband going to chaos of the mind. Chaos of the mind then reflects in the three-dimensional. Everything that happens in the 3D first occurs here and here and then it's manifested. So what you're seeing is the manifestation of a broken world that does not submit to God. So now they're trying to repair it with illusions like money. I bought a house, $65 million cash in Calabas is bought Bitcoin under $10, telling me how he hasn't left the house in 10 years because he has a broken relationship with his wife. He is a man that is in prison. Yet he has billions. Who is free? Him or the bird that is operating in God's design has nothing but can fly. So when we operate as humans in God's design, in God's nature, when we are in Him, then all is well. When we are in Him, all is good. Whether you're being shot at by people that are trying to chase you, whether you're a billionaire, whatever cards God has dealt you for your journey, everybody's different. Yeah. It's not about acting out of desperation. It's about acting in faith. This is a new version of me because he has made me new. So my entire framework of reality has now changed because he has given me a new way to see the world. How does one escape the matrix? You don't. It is what it is. All you do is you are in the world, but not of it. You're in the world because we are in this three-dimensional construct, but we are not of the world. If you are, if you have Jesus and you have Christ and you have God in your life, you are free, you are free indeed. And that is all. We still have problems in this world. We still have things that we need to do. We still have responsibilities. These are real things. Like if you're going to have a child one day or you have a wife, you're thinking, okay, how do I provide for? How do I give her a better life? How do I make sure that her life on this earth is better? These are all normal things. Where do I go on vacation? These are all these are things that God gave us to enjoy. And I'm not saying don't enjoy these things. I'm saying don't have these things. I've been to 65 countries. I travel. I stay in five-star hotels. I stay in I stay with monks. I do everything. Right? It's about doing what God tells you to do. It's about you not trying to build yourself up. It's about not building your little tower of babble. Your own little tower of babble to be like God. Every individual person trying to do their little thing, trying to make up their little world, trying to make every it's all an illusion. What do you think about other religions? They are close, but yet so far. They are like the serpent in the garden. Half truths. They sound great. They're practical, but they don't heal your soul. They don't change you from the inside out. Only the love of Christ can change you from the inside out. Yeah. Only love itself can show you what love is. In Acts chapter 18, Paul goes to the arrow payus and the people are worshiping this idol and they literally don't have a name for it. It's called the Unknown God. And basically, Acts chapter 18, it kind of paints this picture of other religions can have a shadow of Christ, but not the fullness of it. Something I respect about my Muslim friends is a lot of them pray a lot more than people that claim to be Christian. They give a lot more than a lot of Christians do. They fast a lot more than Christians do. There's a shadow of Christ in that morality, but they don't have the fullness of him because they don't have the same perspective of Jesus that I do as a believer. I believe he's God. They think he's just a prophet. You know, the Bible says that all your good works are like filthy rags before him. All your good works are filthy rags. There is nobody good except God. So it doesn't matter what good that you do. It's not good. It is only him that is good. So when people try to do things like they, they like as if they can impress the creator of the universe, you can't impress him. All you can do is submit to him and let him take care of you because we are all children. It doesn't matter if you're 50, 60, 70, 80, 20, we're all children. The moment you want to be like God, you're fighting God against God. And the one that tried to be like God got cast down. That was one of the main reasons why I became a Christian was because I told you that few months before that night in Waffahouse, I was like looking into other religions and stuff. And it was all about there was no security in those. It was just how hard you can climb the ladder and maybe. It was like a gamble, but you had to keep climbing the ladder. And I just thought to myself, if in a broken world, I can't even fix my broken heart, how could I ever work to perfection? And that was like, it's impossible. And then that night at Waffahouse, perfection met me. Yes. He met me in that moment because he has to fish you out from your despair. If not, you can't make it out. You can't climb your way to God. That's why Jesus came. If we could have climbed our way to God, Jesus would have never come. Yeah. It would have been necessary if we could have done it for ourselves. Jesus plus nothing equals everything. Isn't it interesting that in the garden, the doubt that Satan basically plants in the brain is? Yeah, you're unparadised with God, but you're not God. That's the essential doubt. It's like he's like, yeah, I mean, you're with God, but you're not God. And they're kind of like, wait, that's why he doesn't want me to eat of the tree. It was all that idea of wanting to become God. You know, the Bible, you know, the Bible talks about a house divided against itself, can't stand, one can't serve two masters. You either love the one and hate the other. And which two masters as you talk about, God and money. So do you hate one or the other? Why not God in sex? Why not God and God and money? Why? Because that is what the heart desires, because the money, which is the tool that people used to construct themselves, denies God. Because if you have all these resources, then you stop depending on God. I didn't need God. I didn't need God. But then I got to the top and I was like, this is empty. There's nothing. This was a joke. I didn't waste my time. It was a process of gaining XP, like a video game character. You do your side quest, you do your main quest, you start getting XP points. So you start collecting coins, kind of like Grand Theft Auto, you have the loot on the top right. And it's just that, like the game is what matters, not what coins you collect. Like you're playing a game, you beat the game, you're not like, oh, cool, how many coins did I collect to beat the game or at the end of the game? You're just like, did I win? Yeah. It's just like the tools, the resources, the weapons, the skins, the armor, all these things are just part of the journey. But if you find your identity outside of Jesus, you are lost. Yeah, the money thing I heard a apologist say one time talking about how money can take a finite form of God. And what he meant by that is like, you can create your own world in this world with money. Don't you see, don't you see all these billionaires creating these realities? How they build empires, how they build skyscrapers, how they build these towers of Babel? They're building it for themselves. But they die and they're consumed by worms like everybody else. When you look at what Ecclesiastes, Solomon said, I built gardens for myself. I had a concubine, seven hundred of them. I gained all the wisdom and all the knowledge and all the nocyst that one man could desire. I was the wealthiest king that ever lived in Jerusalem, yet all is vanity. All is like chasing after the wind. So I ask people, do you want to chase the wind or do you want to follow God? It's simple. Following God is simple. When you look at Leonardo da Vinci's painting, the creation of Adam, Adam is resting and God is reaching. And all the Adam has to do is move his finger to be connected with God, just this. Not strive, just accept. And then your journey begins because the journey is to be connected back with God. Not to make money. Not to be rich. Not to be wealthy. That's why Jesus said in the Lord's Prayer, give us the day our daily bread. That's it. Just God, give me what I need for my next meal. So that when I go to sleep and I sleep, I can sleep in peace. The wealthiest man is not the one that has the most money. It's the one that wakes up with the least pressure on his chest. Interesting. You mentioned earlier, you're like, we're in the end times, essentially what we were talking about. You briefly mentioned it. I want to talk about that because I agree. I think we've always been in the end times just waiting on Jesus to return a second time. I mean, I think Paul and Peter and then we're in the end times. A lot of people, there's a lot of buzz speculation online for many different people, AI, dangers of AI. People are worried about AI. Do you have any thoughts about that, about cautions, warnings on AI or anything? In order to understand the Bible and the prophecy of the Bible, you need to understand revelations in order to understand revelations, you must understand Daniel because all of the New Testament is based on the prophecy of Daniel. And when you begin to decode the prophecy of Daniel, my grandfather studied the book of Daniel for 30 years, specifically just the book of Daniel for 30 years, he predicted the straight of Hormuz being closed in 2002 and many other things that are now occurring. What we are seeing is man's desire to again be like God. After creating these God-like entities, there was a podcast recently in the All-In-Podcast where Jamoth is interviewing this guy and he says, you know, these big companies open AI andthropic and whatnot, they are midwiving a deity. We were created from dust. Our intelligence was created from dust and then from the dust, God created what he gave us life through his breath. Now men are trying to create intelligence again from dust if you look at what silicone is, silicone chips are actually sand. So we're creating intelligence out of dust itself, but without the breath of life, we're trying to recreate our own version of God because it's easier to do our own agenda than to submit to him. There's many things about history that have been erased for God and misunderstood. And I don't know everything, all I know that is that when I see the world, I see children being butchered in plant-parenthood, Babylonic, satanic temples that are coined, healthcare as healthcare, they're actually witchcraft, they're actually child sacrifice. When I see that, I see the wars, I see the famine, I see the hunger. I look at that and I say it is the end of time because the Bible is clear. Where the world will be, the condition of the world. And when you begin to look at the stars, when you begin to understand the uga cycles, when you begin to understand the book of Daniel, when you begin to understand Revelation, all these different things that there is a shift that is coming. Armageddon means what? Cataclysm. Cataclysm means something that happens in the earth that everything changes. That's said that he will never destroy the earth again by water. Next time, the Armageddon will be by fire. He will purify the world. You look at the uga cycle. The uga cycle is a 24,000 year cycle, it's the age of silver, bronze, gold, and copper. Just like the prophecy of Daniel, when you look at the statue, the head of gold, the torso of silver, the legs of bronze, if I'm not mistaken, and then the footstool or the feet of clay and steel. It is a representation of the kingdoms that are here and the kingdoms that came and the kingdoms that are to come, which is Babylon, Greece, Rome, and then the new Babylon. It says that a stone, which is Jesus, strikes the foot of this statue, the prophecy of Daniel, and everything collapses. So now we are at this bottom stage, the Bible says that nobody knows the time or the hour, which he will return, but you will see the sign of the times. And again, this is a sobriety check for everybody to realize that nothing that you accumulate in this world you get to keep. Whether God disintegrates us, whether we go into heaven, whether it's pre-tribulation, post-tribulation, it doesn't matter. What matters is, are you walking with God? Are you in His design? Have you surrendered your life to Him or do you live for yourself? Are you legit in God's eyes in the closed chambers of your room? Or are you a hypocrite? I think somewhere in the book of Revelation, I was talking to a pastor friend, there's something about how society will create an image that literally talks and people will worship it. And I think that's why, at least for me, that's one of my like, when I think of AI, like my mind immediately goes to that. But also, something that's interesting to me is, I think AI is kind of a cool tool in the sense that it's like a quick Google search thing if you use it that way. But I'm seeing a trend of a lot of people using AI to like stop critical thinking skills and they're leaning on AI as if it's God asking them what to do in a situation, taking a picture of something. How do I do that? You know, asking it so many questions where they're losing the critical thinking skills, the brain that God gave them and they're just leaning on an algorithm, a robot, things like that. What's your warning against that or warning against algorithms, social media? I mean, do you think algorithms are constructs? What's the intention when you're scrolling on the internet and you're hitting refresh and you hit that refresh, it's like a slot machine, what's the next thing that's going to come out? You're being controlled. So what I understood, it's not whether the tools used or not used, it's understanding why it was created. AI has been around for a very long time, it wasn't didn't roll out in 2022, it was fed to the masses in 2022, been around for decades, decades, if not centuries, it's been around for a very long time. The intelligence that being tapped into is beyond human comprehension. That's why you see these anthropic guys going to the Vatican and presenting it to the Pope and the Pope is literally tweets and says, "We either get to restore humanity or build a new Babylon." When we built the last Babylon, when everybody came together to be like God, God said, "No, scatter them." This is man's struggle with God, man is always a post-God, man's heart is incurably religious and incurably sinful unless they submit to God. So you see all these people, they don't know what they do. They receive a thought and they think that it's their thought. You don't know if it's your thought. For all you know it's a demon that's controlling you because you went and you slept with a a prostitute and now you have a succubus or an incubus. inside of you. That's just corrupting everything inside of you. That's why God, when he speaks to you and he gives you commandments, is to protect you and not to take things from you. So you can be used by him. So you can be used by him because if you're not used by God, you're used by something else. There's no such thing as you making your own decisions. We talk about prompts. Bro, we're being prompted by entities all day long. They're dropping prompts in our minds. Now you choose to do what you do with that prompt. Oh, I want to watch. That's not you saying I want to watch point. That urge doesn't come from you. It's not an addiction. It's a prompt in your head that you are choosing to submit to. There is no such thing as addiction. There's disobedience and obedience. Every single thing is a choice. Now when you have Jesus in your life for those struggling with addictions and struggling with issues, the question is who's going to cure it? A psychologist, a person, medicine, drugs, whatever it is. No. None of these things are going to cure the fundamental problem that's within that is sustainable long term. Only God can heal. Only God can restore. Only God can what make things new again. What people need is not to stop an addiction. What people need to do is to be with Jesus and God and they will realize that all these other things they don't need them. You won't desire them when you have everything. A person that is seeking and chasing and desiring is a person that is missing something. I don't seek. I don't chase. I'm still because I have everything that I need. You mentioned earlier that you have a wife. You've been married. You said 11 years. So you said. Yeah. I've been with her for 11 years. Okay. What has been in a relationship to all you? You must have trust that is unconditional. You must have respect that is unconditional. You must serve without expecting anything in return. You must love the way that Jesus loved. When you have a wife or a husband or a girlfriend or a boyfriend, are you there because you're taking because they make you feel good or because you're there to serve and to give. Everybody's struggling with divorce and separation. That's their fault. That's them trying to get something from the relationship. Oh, this person doesn't love me. It's your fault. You don't love correctly. Probably because you haven't experienced the love of Jesus. You can't love unless you experience love from love itself. First John 4 says we love because you first love does. Yes. Because he is love. So people have affection. People have chemistry. But unless it's rooted in love and love is not an emotion, take commitment to the betterment of the other even to the cost of life. Like Jesus. Oh, I love that definition because there is no greater love than this than one man be willing to lay down his life for another. If a man saw his wife under that message, he would never cheat. I love the the Hebrew word for God's love. Greek word. The simple definition is just unconditional love, agape, but the Hebrew word. A habit that's sacrificial love and it literally translates to lay your life down for someone. I think the for the husband and Ephesians, it talks about how you've got to love your wife the way that Christ is love the church literally unto death. That's a big responsibility. And I think you said something really profound that could be totally overheard by people listening that so many people get in relationships to take. And that's why porn and sex outside of marriage is such, I believe, is so popular because that inherent nature to be selfish, to feed oneself, to feed one's flesh scavengers. Take, take, take avengers just like money. So can we can we hit on something I wanted to talk about, which I think Christians get weird about talking, which they shouldn't get weird about talking about is sex is is sex, both physical, spiritual, both sex is marriage. That's why when Jesus says, if you marry a divorced woman, you are committing adultery marriage is not this thing that you go to a church and you get a ring put on and some some dude with a robe sprinkles some stuff and some rice and people are celebrating. It's a sacred union like Adam and Eve united under God. That's why people say, how long have you been married? No, I've been with my wife. Marriage is me, God and her, and not a date or a thing. It's a commitment. And sex was created by God. Sex is beautiful. People don't even know how to have sex. They have sex for nine minutes and they because they saw it on the video. They think that that is what is sex sex is to unite, sex is to connect, sex is to repair, sex is to heal. It's not to take, it's not to feel good. It's not to get off. People don't even know what transmuting the sexual energy means. People think that every time they have to have sex, they have to, they think that every time they have to have sex, that it's about self indulgence. It's not, it's a act of worship. It's purist form. You could be having sex with your wife and be thinking about something else. True, correct? Plus, not about the action. It's about, it's about the purity of the vulnerability in the act of worship at its purist form. So when I see my fellow brothers going to a club, taking a girl back home, using her or that girl imposing her female energy upon a man to seduce him, to steal his male energy. All I see is what? Me, me, me, me, me. Take, take, take, take, take. And they destroy the other person. That's part one, part two. The reason God is very explicit about virginity, very explicit about virginity is because the moment you connect the USB drive to a computer, you don't know what programs you're going to download. People talk about STDs, sexually transmitted diseases, but they don't talk about spiritually transmitted diseases. When you unite yourself to a strange woman, you don't know what you're dealing with. You don't know what packs you're forming. Sex is magic. Sex is a ritual. When you go and have sex with a prostitute, you are committing a sexual ritual. Black magic. People have not learned these things. I haven't been educated these things. I haven't been taught these things, but these things are real. That's why people's life is in disorder and in chaos, no wonder you're in haywire because you're operating outside of God's design. The Bible gives you enough to have faith. It doesn't tell you everything about the concepts of reality. There's more to it. That's why we're here to teach and educate and learn. But when God taught me and showed me the importance of that sacred unity is because you don't want memory logs with other people. You don't want to download their programs. You don't want to download their spiritually transmitted diseases. You don't want to link your avatar character to theirs because it's not part of God's design. Sex is an act of worship. It's not something to be taken lightly. And society has reduced sex to a nine minute experience. Yeah. To release stress and tension. Go to the gym and go for a run. You'll be fine. Yeah. You can like blow off steam or testosterone by like working out and stuff like that. So you mentioned marriage. I wanted to ask you, this is something that me and my friend, Chris, and sometimes we talk about us like what it means to be married. Even talked to Tristan Tate about this, we were like, what does it mean to be married? I mean, I don't think it's in that I actually don't know what I think. I want to hear your thoughts. I don't think it just means, oh, you sign a document or if you put on a ring, like if I taught you my ring, does that mean like we're married? What is the signifier that it is a marriage, right? Because if we say it's just a commitment, right? If I'm like, oh, marriage is just a commitment, what if I say to you, I'm committed to you and you're committed to me? Does that mean we're married or things like that? So how do you define marriage? It's not how I define it. It's how God defines it. How do you think he defines it? Look at Adam and Eve. Perfect unity. One, two, three, marriage is three, not two. Man, woman and God, that is marriage. When together, you strive as man and woman to be in fullness and in completion, worshiping him. You don't need another person. You're not looking for other sources of validation. That's why God says in Genesis, it is not good for a man to be alone. And out of that noses, he created the woman out of his rib to be a companion. God created this, this game. God created the rules for his, for his glory. I don't understand everything. I just see what it is for what it is. So marriage is not one person or two person is male, female, and God together in a relationship that can what elevate for the glory of him. Okay, let me keep adding on to that. So in Genesis, when we look at the covenant, just practical covenant made in general, but I'm just going to use the one Abraham and God, for example, the covenant was signified when they shredded the animals apart. They split them in half, right? Signifying if someone walks down an aisle, right? That's a symmetry. There's that symbolism. But I'm like, when was that covenant sealed? Does that make sense? Was it sealed by the blood shed that happened with the animals? Or once, you know, the word said, I guess in my mind when I'm thinking of marriage. when you choose people form a choice, right? So they are like, okay, we're gonna choose to be married on this day. Okay, on that day you made the commitment, but you could have made the commitment at any point. It's the commitment, marriage is a commitment. Once you make the commitment to love each other unconditionally, that is when you're married. That is when you, and that's why you have, you know, people that are witnesses, because they witness the commitment, because they are what, they're the people that keep you accountable. They're the people that make sure that you are in check. They're the people that, when you're a week, they try to remind you. So marriage is a commitment to lifelong commitment, marriage, sex, they go hand in hand. They're not indistinguishable. And I know this as a virgin, that married a virgin. So it's very hard for people that have had sex outside of marriage to understand this concept, because we're so far out from God's original design that we have to not slowly crawl back. We have to delete the entire narrative and start again from scratch. That's why us, this generation that's been so attacked, that's why I don't judge anybody. We're all victims, we're kids, these, you were a victim. Had you been to a better environment, a better church, a person that was actually what, a follower of Christ and brought you into the knowledge of him with love and grace and compassion, maybe your journey would have been a little bit different. Maybe you would have seen things from a different perspective. Maybe you would have been hurt or felt abused. So I don't judge, I see it as, as it is what it is, but all these people in five years, 10 years, they will have children. How do you raise them to be? It's not about us, it's about the next generation. It's about what we do with the next generation because it's a healing process. So as we teach our children, the sanctity of marriage, as we teach our children, the sanctity of having an undivided commitment to God, then these things will slowly heal humanity. It's a process, but it must be a radical process by completely severing what is real and what is false. So we have all these constructs, all these narratives, these allegories, these walking down the aisle. What aisle? What aisle? If I was in a jungle 2,000 years ago, as an Aztec or a Maya or whatever, and I saw a beautiful woman in the jungle, would I walk down an aisle? No, these are all constructs, right? But could they feel love? Could they feel commitment? Could they just be united? Yes, absolutely. Yeah. So we create all these constructs. That's why when Jesus spends time, with the Pharisees, he says, you do all these things, but your heart is far away from me. People go and they get married, and they're thinking about taking Instagram photos so that people give them likes. Yeah. They miss the point. The point is to be in unity with God. And you can be in unity with God, also in understand God's presence by your counter, which is your female or the female to the male, because you get to see the essence of God from a different perspective. So what I've come to learn in my marriage, and in my relationship with my wife, and I keep this very private, the idea of my wife, and I don't want to enter, there's a lot of weirdos and stuff like that on the online. I don't really care to share too much about it, but the reason I share it is because somebody has to. Somebody has to be the difference. Somebody has to show what is the authentic design. Somebody has to represent Adam and Eve. Somebody has to represent. We are supposed to be like that. But the moment that we sin, we have what, shame. The moment Eve bit of the apple and gave it to Adam, they felt what, shame. Shame they were afraid, and they went and they hid. If they were walking in God's design together, enjoying life fully, they would be in God's presence. Yeah. Do you eat any sort of dessert? Yeah, fruit. Good fruit. So I love desserts, right? Like I love good food. It's about the ingredients, right? So the ingredients matter because the body is a machine. So it was created for a specific purpose and a specific function. If we decide to eat whatever we want, like indulge in whatever we want, yeah, we can. But that doesn't mean that it's good for you. So I love dessert. I love food, but it's about the ingredients. You can make an unhealthy cheesecake and healthy cheesecake. You can make an unhealthy carrot cake and a healthy one. So it's about what ingredients you use. So when people are trying to make food, enjoy it. You know, be, be merry, enjoy, drink, whatever you want, have food. But just make sure that the ingredients are good because your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit in order for you to have full access to the Holy Spirit with deep level of affinity and acuteness. And that means a sensibility. Yeah. Then your body, people said, I felt the Holy Spirit. Talk to me. I felt. A lot of people don't know how to feel because their body is sedated, right? So there's a reason why Daniel did not eat the food of Babylon. There's a reason why Daniel abstained from the King's food. Why? Because it defiled him. Said that he proposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the King's portion. Interesting. So follow up question on that. Old Testament, you know, certain foods don't eat. Especially the ones, maybe in that instance, food sacrifice, like food that was being offered as an idol sacrifice. And the new Testament, Paul talks about how, like, Paul, not Jesus. So you don't listen to Paul? That's not what I said. I said, Paul's not Jesus. True. But he's talking about how? But he's not Jesus. So what do you, what do you choose to listen to? And what is, what is Jesus's diet? What do you think his diet is? I don't know. It's for you to figure out. No, I'm asking you, you brought it up. Not all food is created equal. You know, like you, when you look at pork and you look at these things, there's a reason why, why God has said, do not eat unclean things. For example, the pork, right? The pork has no pores. So it can't secrete toxins. So naturally, the toxins are absorbed in the body. So there's, there's a, there's so much to unpack. We'll have to unpack so much after this podcast. If you were me like this, I'm gonna go eat some hamburgers now and have some bacon screw this guy. Wait, do you, do you not eat any beef? I try to reduce as much of it as possible because meat is really good. There is a lot of good components to it. But the body is not, does not need meat. The body does not need as much food as one thinks it does. You can be fed by many things. I mean, acids, electrolytes, you're fed by the sun, you're fed by the elements. But people's bodies so out of touch, they think that the energy of the body comes from eating food. When in reality, the body is designed to produce infinite energy from itself. However, what we need is our, I mean, no acids. What we need is our essential minerals. We don't need infinite food. That's why you have breatherions and you have Jesus being able to be 40 days and 40 nights fasting with no food and water, not because of anything besides the fact that he understood how the body actually worked. So if you understand how the body actually works, if you understand Adam and Eve, they were eating fruits. They were eating from what God created. They weren't eating flesh. They weren't eating animals. They were eating what God provided. That's why you even see in Genesis. Somebody can correct me if I'm wrong. I may be going on a whim here. Says that God what killed the animal to clothe them. They didn't say that they killed the animal in order for them to eat food. You have the Ten Commandments, thou shalt not kill. Does it say kill people? Or say that is that shalt not kill? Could you imagine Jesus just ripping the neck of a cow? Just does that sound like love? Okay, let me ask you. Does that sound like love? Could you picture Jesus butchering a lamb? No. Who are you called to be like? Jesus, but he was the lamb that was slain. Yes, sure. But let me ask you, do you think that's being almost too critical of the text? You know, like for example. That is being specific. Is that too specific? That is on point. Interesting. So do you eat fish? I don't like fish, unfortunately. But like, so it's not a moral, this is not a moral, like we have morality. We've been discussing morality, like we've been discussing morality. And then we're discussing design. So I want to make sure that we have a distinction here. Oh, so you don't think like it's not, I'm not saying it's immoral. I'm just, what's immoral is us creating these, these cow farms where we're just butchering and we're killing these animals, which is God's creation, then throwing it in the garbage. That's not love. That's not being a steward of God's creation. That does not say I'm connected to God. That is, that screams dishonor. That screams miscarry, that screams misuse. I could right now cut human flesh, put it on the grill. And you'd be like, wow, this meat tastes really good. Not about taste. It's about the design. So, we have morality, talking about sex, we're talking about. your relationship with God, and then we have design. What was the body designed to be? What was the design of the human? And the human's design is to understand that we've been created in a certain way. So that's why we have cancer, tumors, people have ulcers, people's mouth is all diseased, is because what they're inputting into their body is not in what, in sync with their anatomy, is not in sync with their design. I have had to come to terms with these things, the more I study Jesus. That's why James and Paul argued so much, and James, who was the brother of Jesus, said, "I urge you, Paul, to come back to the faith. I urge you because Paul saw a bright light on his way to Damascus the same way that what?" Muhammad saw a bright light, and he acted out of fear, same way Paul acted out of fear. If you look at the Orthodox Church, and then you look at the Catholic Church, and you look at the Reformation that took place from this branch, and then you look at the fact that the Orthodox Church maintained its traditions, because it was the Church of the disciples. There's two different dichotomies, but this is all God's design, because this is designed to bring forth the Armageddon, which is Christianity, Judaism, and Islam all together for the final Christendot. This may sound super skit, so it's everybody like, "How the is Luke talking about all these things? I thought we were going to talk about Bitcoin." I didn't think we were talking about Bitcoin, and maybe other people did. So let me ask you, okay, I mean, I got a lot of questions, but yeah, don't we all, bro? So you don't read any of the apostles? I love Paul, and I love his service for Christ. I love what he did, but it doesn't mean that he was perfect. It doesn't mean that the letters that he wrote were without narrative and without agenda, that the letters that he wrote were for everybody. They were to the people that he was speaking to. That's why I'm able to see them for what they were. I'm able to see them for what they were. Do you know that before the 1611 King James, there was the Apocrypha inside of the Bible. It's called the Inter Testament. Yeah, yeah. Have you read it? I have read the Apocrypha, what do you think? Okay. Well, actually, even before the 1611 and before that, I mean, there's a Hebrew to not from 480 that didn't have the Apocrypha in it. So, you know, that's something that I think about. Have you ever been to the, I don't know if you've ever been in the Museum of the Bible? It's in DC, but that's like, no, I should go. It's very fast. In mind, you, I want to let everybody know that I'm just trying to do my best to honor God. I don't have all the answers. I'm not, I'm not telling everybody how they should live or what they should do. And I'm come from Argentina, you know, that's the beef capital of the world. I've been eating, I've been eating meat for the 30 years. These are things that God is teaching me. God is trying to show me. I'm not saying I'm right. I'm not saying I'm wrong. I'm just sharing my perspective. Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your father who is in heaven. I'm not here to tell this one a show. You know, as my body becomes healthier as my, as I'm, you know, Brian Johnson, for example, he has the blueprint for longevity. People can look at that blueprint and say, oh, he's an idiot. Oh, he's taking too far. But when you look at the fruits, right, you look at the fruits, then you can determine what is real and what is the fruits that he is removed. All microplastics from his body that he has reduced aging. And what is his diet? To vegan diet. He has all of his amino acids. He has all of his resources. It's the blueprint, not for immortality. That's where he, that's where the fallacy is. It's the, it's the ability to live a long life. Have you watched a video called in shadow? It's, it's a video in shadow that describes how society has inverted and warped everything. Have you ever killed a cow? Have you ever slipped the eye person? I've never, I go hunting though. For sure. And have you ever looked at the eyes of a cow when you're about to butcher it? No. So everything is frequency. Everything is emotion. Everything is energy. What is the energy of that animal that it leaves in the flesh? We talk about adrenaline. I'm sure you know what adrenaline is. Do you know what it is? No, I should, so all the elites when they murder children and they drink their blood, they put them in a state of fear, right? And they put them in a state of fear because the adrenaline comes into the blood and it fuses. That gives you a rush that tastes good. That makes you feel good, like vampires when you, that's why the Quran and the Torah talk about this idea of how you should kill a cow or how you should prepare me if you're going to prepare it, which says it needs to be done in a way that doesn't cause what fear? Because fear induces adrenaline, adrenaline, chrome becomes an addiction. Sounds really schizo. But if you look at monsters ink, right? The movie. Yeah. What do they do? What do the monsters do in order to fill themselves up? Fear. They give you fear cans. Fear cans, right? So fear is how these animals experience their final moments. And then that's translated into the tension of the muscle that's translated into the blood. And that's what people are eating. People are so disconnected from God. So removed from nature that they go to a store, they look at a piece of meat and they don't understand what has taken place. They don't understand the process. They pick up a vegetable full of genetically modified sequences, full of pesticides. And they think that it's healthy. It's not. We've removed God so far from the equation that it's so hard for us to really be able to to understand what the world was like. Thousands and thousands and thousands of years ago when we walked in perfect communion with him, there's a reason why God did not say, hey, go kill this cow that I created. God said, I've given you all the fruits that you've from. I've given you all these things to eat from. You can have them as much as you want. Just don't eat from that one thing. But the animals there were there to be what steward and taken care of and protected. So as much as I love Paul and Paul has had his part in the idea of of or in the history of the church and in the history of Christianity, when people say, let's open up the word of God and let's let's read what God says. That's not what God says. That's what Paul said. And Paul wrote it under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. And we have to be able to be very specific in understanding what a man says and what God says. Why did God when he came to Moses? Why did he only give him ten commandments? Why not more letters and why not more things? Why only ten commandments? Well, he elaborates more. No, Moses elaborates more because the people were in sin. So Moses has to continue creating structures and creating layers and layers because people were disobedient to the point where you have Moses spend time on Mount Zion. And he has the tablaz, he comes down with the tablets. And he looks over and he's like, bro, I just came back and you guys are already created a golden cow? Yeah. Let me take these stubborn people and let me give him structure, structure, structure. That's why we have the church. You know, I have my pastor here on the other side of the of the of the camera. And we we often talk about the importance of the church. And the church is there for one word, structure. Yeah, structure is not necessarily bad. It's not it's a great thing. Yeah. It's a great thing. But that's what Moses did, right? Moses created structure, but he created structure as a layer two to the fundamental truths. So that people, people that were, you know, babies in the faith, per se, or that didn't understand the full knowledge of God or that weren't necessarily thinking about God all day long. They followed these things to protect them. That's my thesis. Maybe I'm right. Maybe I'm wrong. I think it's interesting. So like the in Leviticus, like when he's given all 613 laws or whatever, he's like constantly saying and the Lord said and the Lord said and the Lord said. And so when I'm when I'm looking at the New Testament and the Pharisees are like, hey, Jesus, out of all of the law, which is the best, because they knew he could they could like blaspheme Jesus. Only two. He's like that. And he, well, he summarizes it under that truth that he quotes from Deuteronomy 25. I think he literally quotes it from the Old Testament because he's a straight gangsta, but he summarizes it under that truth of like when you love God, it's not like a target, like you're shooting out of target. When you love God, it like manifests from within your heart. Yes. Who's your hardest? His. Yes. So I love God and love your neighbor as yourself. Jesus said both of them. I got to ask though, because you said the ingredients. What's your favorite dessert? Everyone knows you got the healthy ingredients. What's your favorite likes vanilla ice cream, bro? Okay. A real good vanilla Italian vanilla ice cream. Amazing. And are you and are you making that with your ingredients? Are you going somewhere raw milk, which was banned by by the Rothschilds in the British parliament, which everybody should attempt to find some raw milk, some raw milk, some a Madagascar vanilla, some good honey, perfect combo. All right. So if you could have a conversation with your future self or yourself at 10 years old, which would you have a conversation with? 10 years old for sure. What would you tell 10-year-old Luke by Bitcoin or $1? That's funny. Okay. - You mentioned the shot. - I'm human too, everybody. (laughing) - You mentioned the. - Wouldn't we have all loved that? You know, we wouldn't be having to work with you just to be straight chilling. - Yeah, Bitcoin or Dogecoin? - Dogecoin, whatever it was. You know, like, yeah, I just, I'm more chilled in this podcast, makes me out to be, I'm just having a real conversation with you. - No, no, for sure. You mentioned, I really wanted to ask you, do you know who runs, like, who runs the world? - Satan. - But people, organizations, are elite. - There is no people. - Who's being influenced by Satan? - Everybody that does not submit to Christ. - So you, but you mentioned like the Rothschild and stuff like that, like the child sacrifice, blood-during your stuff. Have you seen anything like that? Be it impossible? - I have seen more than you can imagine, things that we can talk about off camera, but the world gets very vile. - Evil has no limit. - Evil has no boundaries. - What is the most demonic thing you've seen that you can talk about publicly? - My own pride. - I know you've seen some crazy stuff. - Put that the most demonic thing is the pride of my heart. - Outside of yourself. - The pride of others, the pride is what leads to the fall. - Have you seen, like, if you're asking me what I've seen, I've seen, I don't want to offend the audience or say some crazy stuff, I can tell you off camera, but it's not about what is the action. The action is just a reverberating effect of what's inside. So what is inside? Inside is an enmity towards God. enmity towards God. That is what leads to everything outside, whether it's you stealing or whether it's you murdering a child. God does not view it any differently. To God is the same. To God, it's disobedience. To God, it's dishonor. To God is rejection of Him. Whether small or big, same, same. That's why Jesus died for everybody sin. All the sins received what, the same penalty. So what is the consequence of murdering a child in stealing? The cross. The sacrifice was the same. So the cost and the depth of the sin is still the same because of what it costs God in Himself, Jesus. So the small thing is just as big as the big thing because God says, well, what did it cost me to take care of the small sin, what cost me myself? No, that makes sense. What do you think about that? Well, yeah, I mean, it's so interesting. I don't know if you know who Cliff and Cliff Connectley is. He does like college campus stuff. He's like an older guy. I don't know if you've ever seen videos of him. Is he the guy with the curly hair? Yeah, yeah. I like him a lot. We were just with him the other day and I kept asking him, like, what do you think about like transgender stuff going on or stuff like that? He's like, it's all the same, just in a new font. You know, it's all a root. The root is pride. The root is selfishness, whatever it may be. And I always, I thought that was interesting because sometimes we focus on the noice of, oh, we got something new. We got, you know, transgenderism or whatever. It's new in the, it's like a popular thing within the last hundred years, even though it's been around a long time. It's super popular now. People hyperfixate on it. But it's like, this has been going on or the thing you mentioned about abortion. Like, yeah, it's been going on. Maybe just in a different context. People were offering that stuff up to ball and other gods like back in the day. So we, I mean, I'm like, yeah, it's been going on. But I think we do focus on a lot of the noice rather than the heart of the issue. We have to look at the essence of things. The essence of things. Righteousness, unrighteousness, holiness, unholiness. Very binary. When you look at the essence of things, that's all you need to understand. God is a God of order. And he is a God of justice. And he is a God of impartiality. And he is a good God. That's why we need to understand. People say, one sin is worse than the other. It's not, what are you gauging it towards? You're gauging it towards the suffering that it causes to this planet? Or do you gauge it towards a suffering that it costs Christ on the cross? Because Jesus would have come if it was just you and me sinning. And doing nothing, just disrespecting each other. He would have still died for us. Because he would have left the 99 to go get the one. So it's looking at what it costs God that determines the weight of the sin. Not the actions of how it affects the planet today, but what it costs God, Jesus, in order to purify us and cleanse us from that unrighteousness, which was the shedding of his blood. But the beauty is that his perfect goodness allowed him to come into the game, glitch into the game. And the reason it's a glitch is what I call it glitches, like you have this program, right? You have this matrix program, this construct. You have Adam. Adam messes up, right? He's not able to maintain perfect unity with God, but he's created in the image and likeness of God. And then 2,000 something years later, whatever the timeline is, who knows? But sometime later, Jesus rolls in through the virgin womb. So he's no longer part of sin nature because there is no connection with the man. And so it's a new, a new lineage. And that's why he was able to walk perfectly. Had Jesus sinned once, he would have proven that he wasn't God. Yeah. Had Jesus chosen, this was all choice. That's why, that's why when he's led by the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil, he puts himself in such a state of vulnerability to what, to be tested at the deepest level. Power, hunger, temptation. So Jesus puts himself in these places to fulfill the law. Yeah. Not only does he die, but he spends three days in hell. Hades, I think, to get the keys of sin and death, and then he rises again from the dead. That's why he says to the rich man, hey, preserve my body, he'll take my body. 'Cause in three days I'm coming back and then you have the transfiguration, right, where Jesus completely changed and then he has sons into heaven. I love him. He is, he is, he is everything. In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God. In him, all things are made. And outside of him, nothing really works. So instead of focusing on the noise, like you said, focus on what does God want for you now. And if you break everything down to this most basic common denominator, we talk about math, you know, complicated equations. How do you solve complicated equations? You break them down to their most basic common denominator to understand them. And if you break everything down to this most basic common denominator, which is love, God, with all your mind, soul, strength, and love others as you love what? So, yourself. These are the two greatest laws. It's a beautiful thing. And it's a, it's a process of understanding, it's a process of realization and not just understanding and realization, but then finally a process of submitting. Because to know is not enough, you must do with what you know. You care if I pray for us to close this out. Jesus, thank you so much for today, God. Thank you for our time. Thank you for breath. Thank you for allowing Luke and Haniel to come with us. Lord, we just love you. We thank you, protect you, Luke, continue to guide him, continue to speak to him, continue to speak to me, continue to guide me, bring us conviction and continue to transform us in your love. God, we love you, we thank you. In Jesus' name, amen. One last thing for the audience. If you enjoyed this comment on the comment section, be real, comment be real. If this conversation has impacted you and pushed you forward to being more like the realest one in the game. Thank you for having me, buddy. - Dude, thanks for coming on. I appreciate you. - Yes.
