As the end swiftly approaches I am once again compelled to write. I’ve tried writing these sermonettes more than once in hopes of articulating the messages in my heart but every time I have somehow managed to fall short. In my attempts to appeal to the masses and make my messages more commercial, I now realize that I’ve cheated myself and everyone who may have had an ear to hear—and I apologize. It was stupid of me to think that I can make this a feel good message and to succumb to the same itching ears that fall prey to so many prosperity and wellness gospels that already exist. My messages remain difficult, offensive at times, and as always far removed from the mainstream.
I haven’t had a reason to come back on here since my messages regarding the identity of the Antichrist continues to serve its purpose and all prophecies discussed within those videos continue to come to fruition (search "Lueyduey Antichrist Revealed" on youtube to view them.) But the world continues to fall apart at an even more alarming rate than two years ago. The American dollar continues to hang in the balance and the scales can be tipped at any given moment to fulfill the days when a day’s wages will only buy a bit of bread (Rev 6:6.) As dictators continue to fall, the world is making way for global unification towards one purpose and one leader. Natural disasters have continued to rock our existence, both begging us to reconsider the meaning of our fickle lives and helping us understand once and for all that humans are not in control. As far as my videos go and their main subject matter regarding the UFO deception, many things have taken place since the last video was made.
1. The number of sightings have shot up exponentially, and within the last two and a half to three years, there has been an unprecedented amount of video footage to support some of the most major sightings—please note that prior to these there have only been the old shaky out of focus camera problems that were easily debunked. Please see July 7th UFO in China, The Blue Spiral of Norway, and The Jerusalem UFO. And as I’m releasing this note, WorldStarHiphop has released a compilation of the craziest sightings in these past few years. The videos have gone viral in the urban community and prompted me to release this in writing rather than video form to speed up its delivery.
2. The amount of Hollywood material regarding UFO’s have been astounding. It's NOT just a trend. Paul, District 9, Battle LA, Mars Needs Moms, Planet 51, V, The Event, The Fourth Kind, Falling Skies, The Knowing (sorry to ruin the ending but Nicolas Cage’s kid gets zipped up in a UFO at the end) and many more. Remember their purpose is to offer embellished versions of the real “Aliens” in order to facilitate our acceptance of them when the mother ship finally lands.
3. Stephen Hawking’s Discovery channel special about life on other planets, entitled “Into the Universe with Stephen Hawking: Aliens” has shifted this entire UFO debate from the X-Files to pop culture. It is now not only okay to think there is life on other planets, it’s become plain stupid and archaic if you don’t think there’s life on other planets. It’s literally become akin to believing in a flat earth if you question the existence of other beings in the universe. The UFO’s actually making it here and visiting us is still fringe stuff, but it’s definitely on the fringe of the fringe. Add to this, other television series such as “UFO Hunters” and “Ancient Aliens” and you have more than enough of the population primed to accept their Martian brothers. To quote Hawking’s opening statement for his Discovery Channel special: “Wherever I go in the world people ask me, do aliens exist? It’s a good question because it cuts to the heart of how we see our place in the Universe.” He then proceeds to show the likelihood of alien life by explaining how small and insignificant we are as a planet. If you think evolution stripped away purpose and morality from life, just wait until this becomes popular thought.
4. And the most compelling event that is propelling the end times storyline is the conference held by military retirees at the end of September in 2010 in which retired military officers spoke about consistent UFO contact at nuclear weapons bases. These respected officers have put their reputations on the line in order tell us that aliens have been in contact with them and have disrupted many nuclear operations. They show extreme concern with our use of nukes. The storyline will continue as Japan suffers its nuclear debacle. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BtmpaM0PqyI
What is this storyline? Let me get you caught up.
The man who I peg as the coming Antichrist, my number one candidate, if these are indeed the last days (the Beast from the Sea), is Claude Rael, leader of the Raelian movement. In following the idea laid out in my last video regarding the fake birth (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jslqxlHyRFc), the history during the times of the second World War will be mirrored during our times.
Rael writes in his book, the majority of which was a re-interpretation of the Bible by the alien leader that took Rael on his flyer saucer (who also turns out to be his daddy), he writes in it that his birth was directly linked to the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The alien people, as our direct creators (so they teach), were distressed that we had discovered and unleashed weapons of mass annihilation. They regretted allowing us to reach this point and basically vowed that it would never happen again—in other words, a nuclear holocaust will never happen as long as they are watching over us. And so, they decided to artificially conceive their own prophet that year on December 25th 1945 (You crazy Christians have a couple more years of Christmas celebration before Saturnalia comes back full force). On September 30th 1946, Claude Rael was born. Chosen to usher in the age when we are one with our creators once more (that’s the alien people, if you haven’t figured it out yet) he has been on a campaign since the late 70’s to have a UFO embassy built at the site of Jewish temple that was destroyed in A.D. 70. Solomon’s temple was the first UFO embassy, Rael teaches. The aliens (or as he calls them the Elohim) would like nothing more than to be directly accepted by their chosen people—who Rael teaches are both the Palestinians and Israelis as they are all one genetically and were created as one race. But after enough rejection, the aliens have now decided that they will choose another site to have their embassy—China. So a campaign by the UFO people began on July 7th 2010. They would continue to make appearances in China’s skies until eventually they are forced to not only accept their existence, but also heed the words of Rael and his request for an embassy. This does not however change their love for the Palestinians and Israelis. This was indeed the story behind the ufo that recently descended on the Dome of the Rock. It was one last gesture, one last plea before shifting their entire focus onto China. And that’s it, you’re all caught up.
As the pace of these end time events speed up, you may feel like I might actually be on to something. Please do not be afraid to ask questions. God bless.

IMPORTANT NEWS!
Pay VERY close attention to this. That's all I'll say for now. I suspect this individual will be the Maitreya of the NORTH as opposed to Rael being the Maitreya from the west. I also suspect this person may be female, possibly a Nordic. His/her role will be the beast from the earth, or as some call him, the false prophet. Hailing as the World Teacher to replace our current teacher, the Holy Spirit.

Leaders In The Church. How Shall We Appoint?
Real quick. Something set me off today...
The sad truth is a church is only as good as its leaders. It's just the structure of the universe. Don't be naive about this. You have Jim Jones leading the masses into suicide. Were they all stupid? You have Hitler leading an entire nation to murder. Were all Nazis boneheads? It's the reason leaders have a far greater burden than followers. Do you think the majority of the military is republican because of independent research? Do you think the majority of college educated people are humanists because their professors had no part? The more you know, the more gifts you're given, the more responsibility you have. The Bible says that if a teacher teaches something crazy, and you listen to it, the teacher will get far more flack from the good Lord than you would for following. See, because the teacher is the one that should have known better. You could say accurately that this world is made up of two types of people: followers and leaders. So how should they be appointed if it's so important?
Moses was overwhelmed with leadership duties and God told him:
Take you wise men, and understanding, and known among your tribes, and I will make them rulers over you.
This is one of MANY passages that offer criteria for leadership. It's an excellent starting point though. Heck, I doubt you'll have an easy time finding a handful of people you know that would fulfill those three things.
WISE: NOT booksmart. There is a difference. You can't teach this. Some would say it only comes with experience.
UNDERSTANDING: Is this a "people person"? Can he connect emotionally with everyone around him? Or can you not approach this person because "he never understands." You can't teach this either.
KNOWN AMONG YOUR TRIBES or RESPECTED: Can't teach this especially. You earn respect. You could also look at this as "popular." Don't think of it in a shallow high school sense. But really evaluate this characteristic within this person. If this person was introduced as the new leader would some in the congregation say "who's that guy?" Or would they instead, say "this man, I've heard of. He has an excellent reputation."
Now think of all the youth pastors, assistant pastors, or even pastors that were recently appointed in your church. If you took a poll, would it be UNANIMOUS that that person fulfills these requirements for leadership? I'd like to end with saying "you'll be surprised" but that wouldn't be accurate. You're probably thinking, "Why is this person a leader here?"

Let's Talk About Love: The Meaning of Life
No wild man diatribe today. Let's just talk about love. Hopefully you've read one of my previous blogs entitled "Christianity is Hard (like gangsta hard)." A simple yet lonely call to bring back the concept of tough love. I don't want to minimize the importance of that so I do encourage you to read it. But I'd like to soften things up a bit.
I often tell those around me that I know the meaning of life. As long as they don't suspect me of pulling out a Bible and proselytizing on the spot, they usually bite. "What is the meaning of life?" they scoff. Then I tell them what I'll tell you now. "Two words and they mean the same thing: Love and God. That's the meaning of life."
After going all "Deepak Chopra" on their behinds, they usually want me to explain myself. But inevitably, we get to the God of the Bible and my intent audience runs for the exits. So how do I elaborate and explain such a lofty statement? "Two words and they mean the same thing: Love and God. That's the meaning of life." Can I explain it? I can try. But after years as a disciple of Christ, I've (reluctantly) come to the conclusion that I can't argue, explain, preach, or reason anyone into the kingdom of God. My words only do so much. Everything begins and ends with love and that's the only true way in which we can draw others into the kingdom.
28 Then one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, perceiving[a] that He had answered them well, asked Him, “Which is the first commandment of all?”
29 Jesus answered him, “The first of all the commandments is: ‘Hear, O Israel, the LORD our God, the LORD is one. 30 And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’[b] This is the first commandment.[c] 31 And the second, like it, is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’[d] There is no other commandment greater than these.”
Speaking to my brothers and sisters in Christ (as I am prophesying), you may be very familiar with this passage. You may have heard sermons illustrating each of the elements of love towards God. Your heart, soul, mind and strength. And if you haven't, go google it now. It's great stuff. However, I'd like to draw your attention to the question asked and the manner in which it was answered. The scribe asked him quite plainly, "Out of ALL the commandments, which ONE is the greatest?" So in response, Jesus gives number one and then can't help but give number two. It's almost as if they're inseparable. And in a sense, they are inseparable because out of your intense, all out, full blown love for your Creator God, you inevitably love your neighbor as yourself. But here's some info that might be of interest to you. News flash: Christianity is not about self. Maybe you've heard it taught that to "love your neighbor as yourself" you must take care of their basic needs. Simply, as you care for your hunger, your need for shelter, etc., so you should as well care for your neighbors'. I will contend, though, that it is deeper than that.
Jesus died and resurrected. We died to be born again. We're born again to be one with the Lord: we were adopted into our Father's family and are now in His bloodline; the Holy Spirit is alive in us; and as the bride of Christ we are in/under Jesus. We are no longer "ourselves" because we've been bought with His blood. The connection I make is this. We should not just love our neighbors as ourselves, but we should love them as we love Jesus.
Am I committing an atrocious heresy here by adding to scripture? No siree.
Matthew 25:37 “Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? 38 When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? 39 Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ 40 And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’
Pretty self explanatory. Now let's use some algebraic skills and redefine some things in a Christian post resurrection context. If the second greatest commandment is inseparable from the first greatest commandment and defined as "like it" or "similar" and serving your neighbor is like/similar to serving Christ and you are no longer your own person and you are to love your neighbor as yourself..whew...then logically the command is more like the following: love your neighbor as you love Jesus. Notice now how it makes more sense when Jesus answers the scribe's question. Jesus, being God, naturally follows (or teams with) the commandment to love the Lord your God with everything you have.
Back to the original topic--don't worry we haven't strayed in the least. What's the meaning of life? Two words but they mean the same: God and Love. Sure I can sum this all up with 1John 4:8 stating "God is Love." But still, for those non Christians following along, it's still pretty vague. Let's try this...
1 Corinthians 13:4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never fails.
Ah, the characteristics of true love. Slapping modern day definitions of love in the face, and then bending them over for a spanking just for good measure. It confesses the shortcomings of all humans and our inability to treat anyone decently. We'll fall short, excuse me, we'll sin constantly. Who can keep this list and never fail? That's right. Only God. But look at verse 8. "Love never fails." But which is it, God or Love? Well, both. Love and God--they mean the same thing.
Back to our reevaluation of the second greatest commandment. "Love your neighbor as Jesus" says Lueyduey the uneducated theologian. So what is the meaning of life? Two words: God and Love, but they mean the same thing.
Now a new commandment I give you. Well, not me, but God. Let's hear it Lord:
John 13:34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.
If you haven't already jumped to conclusions...how is this commandment different from what we've examined? It may seem crazy but Christ was able to elevate the call to love even higher than "love your neighbor as yourself" or "love your neighbor as Jesus." How so? Well now he asks us Christians to love one another as Christ loved us. Remember again the real meaning of love as defined by 1 Corinthians 13. Is any fallen human able to perfectly love as the passage calls us to. Can you "think no evil" or as some versions say "keep no record of wrongs"? No. Again only God can. And He's calling us to have this love for our brethren.
So on one level God calls us to love our neighbor as we love Him. Whatever our humanity will allow. But now the love that we should have for our brothers and sisters in Christ, should exceed that. Whatever we have left, whatever we are able to tap into, we are to attempt to love perfectly like Jesus loved us--when it comes to the church. Let's break it down.
1. Love God with your heart, mind, soul, and strength.
2. Love your neighbor as you love Christ.
?. Love the church as Christ loves you.
What is the meaning of life? Two words and they mean the same thing: Love and God. That's the meaning of life. You were put here on this earth to love. The truest form of that was exemplified when Jesus went to the cross to die for our sins. Please understand that I'm not alluding to some mushy feeling when I speak of love. I'm talking about self sacrifice. The only reason you were created was to spend eternity with God. The only reason you were given life was to sacrifice it. The only reason you were created was to love and be in Love. They all mean the same thing.
Tune in next time when I link all this crazy love stuff with...evangelism. Gasp.

Proposition 8. What's Up With This Gay Stuff?
Before I begin, let me direct you to some research done by our friends at focus on the family. http://www.frc.org/get.cfm?i=IS04C02
If you don't feel like reading it. It basically presents a few hypotheses and expounds on them. For example, if homosexuality is normal (i.e., you are born that way) and they desire the same marriage rights as the rest of us then we should see the following behaviors in the homosexual community that are similar, if not identical, to the heterosexual community:
1. For those states where homosexual marriage is allowed, we should see a similar percentage take advantage of marriage.
2. We should also see a similar percentage of couples desiring lifelong monogamy and exclusivity.
What you'll find fascinating in the article is that neither 1 nor 2 are confirmed in the research. Let me simplify further...if the gay community is fighting so hard (some literally fighting) to get marriage rights, why aren't they taking advantage of it? And for the few that do, why'd they even bother getting married if they end up having an open marriage and sexing up other people in five years time or less?
Here's a brief quote from the article:
"In The Male Couple, authors David P. McWhirter and Andrew M. Mattison reported that, in a study of 156 males in homosexual relationships lasting from one to thirty-seven years:
Only seven couples have a totally exclusive sexual relationship, and these men all have been together for less than five years. Stated another way, all couples with a relationship lasting more than five years have incorporated some provision for outside sexual activity in their relationships."
Let me be blunt about what I've found regarding homosexual behavior then tell you why I believe the issue has been in the forefront of the fight against Christians for so long. Look at that quote again. It's not surprising that monogamy is nearly impossible for them. *(By the way, if the research you've done regarding this matter consists of watching Ellen or reading Perez Hilton, than I suggest you do more before you come yelling at me). Let me hold back prophesying for another couple paragraphs and say that if homosexual behavior is the result of a traumatic sexual experience during the individual's youth in which that person's sexuality or sexual identity was robbed, then it can be understood why they are unable to remain monogamous. See, a gay man goes to find other men to fill that void and to (in essence) take back the manhood that was taken from him as a child. And of course he will never be able to do so and in the meantime he finds that the partner he is currently with doesn't do the job either. So it's back to searching. Some have sex with hundreds of different men in their search for their lost sexuality, some over a thousand. So in regards to prop 8 the question still stands as to why they are fighting for this. Why is this so important? The reason is simple. They want to be "recognized" as normal. That they are born gay. Even though the people of California have spoken, they seek this "vindication." It's obvious that's where we differ. To them it's natural and they want everyone to agree on that. But we don't and that's what this fight is really about.
Or have we only scratched the surface?
As one of the Bible totin' Christians out there, I've always wondered why it was ever such a huge issue in the evangelical world. I mean, "Thou shall not be gay" didn't even make the ten commandments but they sure made it seem that way. Honestly, during my formative years as a Christian, the issues seemed to be "save marriage" and "save Christmas." I felt like there were more important issues so eventually I jumped off of this evangelical bandwagon. Now, however, the issue has come back to the forefront for me.
The word intolerant gets flung around often when dealing with this subject. Indeed it's become the greatest sin in the world for nonbelievers. The difficulty is that logical and honest debate is no longer the norm in our society. If it were, I would contend that my actions are far more tolerant than those who claim that I am intolerant. For example, if you happen to believe that homosexuals are born gay, you have most likely either stopped reading this blog entry or you are boiling with hatred towards me and my "hate speech." If you saw me on the street you would not be inclined to come and shake my hand and say "hey, I read your blogs. I disagree with them wholeheartedly but hey, we're all homies right?" No...you probably don't like me much. You're definitely intolerant of people like me and you don't think I should exist. Do you see the irony here? Who is really full of hate? Who is really intolerant? I don't hate any gay person out there. I don't think for a second that you have no right to exist, no matter how many partners you've had or how many little old Christian women you've harrassed at your rallies. I still have love for you. I'd still have dinner with you, hug you, shake your hand, laugh with you. Would you do the same with me?
Here's my main point (finally)!! I'm not against gay marriage because it would pervert the sanctity of marriage. I think marriage has already been perverted with the teachings of the church, but that's another blog. I'm against gay marriage because the real agenda at work is to further normalize the behavior. By doing so, anyone who stands against it is guilty of hate speech. They want everyone in the world to admit that homosexuality is normal and gay people aren't messed up. Whoever disagrees needs to be shut down along with the religion they take part in (unless you're Muslim then you're fine because we don't want to make them victims of hate speech and speak against them, oh no... http://www.aclj.org/news/Read.aspx?ID=3028)
THIS WILL BE THE MANNER IN WHICH CHRISTIANS WILL BE DRIVEN UNDERGROUND. So get ready for jail time, get ready for blacklists everywhere. Pastors looking for a new building to house your growing congregations...better start focusing on discipleship and raising up leaders for smaller house gatherings instead, because your building will be shut down if you call homosexuality a sin. This is not going to be years and years from now. It's happening sooner than you think.
If you don't feel like reading it. It basically presents a few hypotheses and expounds on them. For example, if homosexuality is normal (i.e., you are born that way) and they desire the same marriage rights as the rest of us then we should see the following behaviors in the homosexual community that are similar, if not identical, to the heterosexual community:
1. For those states where homosexual marriage is allowed, we should see a similar percentage take advantage of marriage.
2. We should also see a similar percentage of couples desiring lifelong monogamy and exclusivity.
What you'll find fascinating in the article is that neither 1 nor 2 are confirmed in the research. Let me simplify further...if the gay community is fighting so hard (some literally fighting) to get marriage rights, why aren't they taking advantage of it? And for the few that do, why'd they even bother getting married if they end up having an open marriage and sexing up other people in five years time or less?
Here's a brief quote from the article:
"In The Male Couple, authors David P. McWhirter and Andrew M. Mattison reported that, in a study of 156 males in homosexual relationships lasting from one to thirty-seven years:
Only seven couples have a totally exclusive sexual relationship, and these men all have been together for less than five years. Stated another way, all couples with a relationship lasting more than five years have incorporated some provision for outside sexual activity in their relationships."
Let me be blunt about what I've found regarding homosexual behavior then tell you why I believe the issue has been in the forefront of the fight against Christians for so long. Look at that quote again. It's not surprising that monogamy is nearly impossible for them. *(By the way, if the research you've done regarding this matter consists of watching Ellen or reading Perez Hilton, than I suggest you do more before you come yelling at me). Let me hold back prophesying for another couple paragraphs and say that if homosexual behavior is the result of a traumatic sexual experience during the individual's youth in which that person's sexuality or sexual identity was robbed, then it can be understood why they are unable to remain monogamous. See, a gay man goes to find other men to fill that void and to (in essence) take back the manhood that was taken from him as a child. And of course he will never be able to do so and in the meantime he finds that the partner he is currently with doesn't do the job either. So it's back to searching. Some have sex with hundreds of different men in their search for their lost sexuality, some over a thousand. So in regards to prop 8 the question still stands as to why they are fighting for this. Why is this so important? The reason is simple. They want to be "recognized" as normal. That they are born gay. Even though the people of California have spoken, they seek this "vindication." It's obvious that's where we differ. To them it's natural and they want everyone to agree on that. But we don't and that's what this fight is really about.
Or have we only scratched the surface?
As one of the Bible totin' Christians out there, I've always wondered why it was ever such a huge issue in the evangelical world. I mean, "Thou shall not be gay" didn't even make the ten commandments but they sure made it seem that way. Honestly, during my formative years as a Christian, the issues seemed to be "save marriage" and "save Christmas." I felt like there were more important issues so eventually I jumped off of this evangelical bandwagon. Now, however, the issue has come back to the forefront for me.
The word intolerant gets flung around often when dealing with this subject. Indeed it's become the greatest sin in the world for nonbelievers. The difficulty is that logical and honest debate is no longer the norm in our society. If it were, I would contend that my actions are far more tolerant than those who claim that I am intolerant. For example, if you happen to believe that homosexuals are born gay, you have most likely either stopped reading this blog entry or you are boiling with hatred towards me and my "hate speech." If you saw me on the street you would not be inclined to come and shake my hand and say "hey, I read your blogs. I disagree with them wholeheartedly but hey, we're all homies right?" No...you probably don't like me much. You're definitely intolerant of people like me and you don't think I should exist. Do you see the irony here? Who is really full of hate? Who is really intolerant? I don't hate any gay person out there. I don't think for a second that you have no right to exist, no matter how many partners you've had or how many little old Christian women you've harrassed at your rallies. I still have love for you. I'd still have dinner with you, hug you, shake your hand, laugh with you. Would you do the same with me?

Christianity is Hard (like gangsta Hard)
God is love. You should know that. God loves you more than you could ever love him in a familial sense, in a friendly sense, and yes in a romantic sense. But more than that, He is love. So it's not surprising that out of our new testament/covenant/revelation that we find a love story preached from behind our pulpits. Rightfully so, since He's turned the believers' hearts from stone to flesh. The greatest love story ever told as Christ went to the cross for us literally melted our hearts. With that in mind...consider the following:
1. We are taught that when someone sins against us in the Body, we should confront that person directly. But since we should be so full of God's love should we not instead completely ignore the sin and forgive the trespassing brother without letting him know what he did? I mean, it's not very loving to make someone feel bad...is it?
2. We are taught that God continues to discipline us because we're his children, and that it should hurt pretty bad. But this can't be the same God I learned about so full of love? In light of all the psychological research done in recent years, it makes so much more sense for God to love us even more when we become a bunch of brats. This way the guilt will burn more deeply and bring us to repentence...right? We don't have to use the belt anymore...right, Abba?
3. We are to emulate the character of Jesus the best that we can. Besides, that's what discipleship is--to follow. We know we can never be sinless like him but we need to strive for it. We need to love the way he loves, care the way he cares, be holy as He is holy...however what we should NOT do is go after hypocrites and put them in their place. And even though Jesus was smacking people up in the temple (literally and figuratively), we are not to attempt that since he is a God of perfect judgement in addition to being a God of love. If you feel like you absolutely must point out a hypocrite's gross sin, speak the truth in Love. And what that means is to tell them as politely and nicely as possible that they're a brood of vipers and sons of the Devil. Of course don't use those terms, do it lovingly.
4. We are taught that we aren't worthy of Jesus' love if we love anyone else more than Him, this includes family. In fact there was a young man who asked to follow Jesus but first needed to bury his father. Jesus' response was "let the dead bury their own dead." Translation: "He wasn't a believer, your dad was one of them, in Hell right now, among the dead. If you want to be alive in God's family you shouldn't really give a hoot about those that aren't in our family. I don't care if he raised you your whole life, he wasn't a child of God and therefore no family of yours. Let the other hellbound people bury him." In another book, Jesus clearly says you need to hate your family...let me end the satire here and bring the point home.
For those of you who have ever had problems with that verse, you should be able to clearly see now what is meant by hating your family. If that young man didn't bury his dad, wouldn't it appear to everyone that he hated his own father? Of course. Now let's flip the script. Let's say it's modern Christian times and there was the same guy coming to your church to get the truth. How in the world do you "lovingly" tell that young man that "hey, your dad's probably in Hell, but come follow Jesus anyway." Jesus knew that would be the main issue and he needed it taken care of immediately. That young man needed to show hatred (in a worldly sense) towards his earthly father in order to be in the kingdom. There was no other option. It was going to come out sooner or later.
Here's the approach today's "loving" churches would have taken. They would have probably done one of two things. The first would have been to just ignore the issue and let him deal with it. And once he realizes that his dad is in Hell, he would have become bitter and angry towards God and he would leave the faith (i.e. loving his earthly father more). The second thing is telling him that no one can really know where his father is, heaven or hell. Now what happens? He begins changing the nature of the truth of the Bible and making up his own requirements for heaven. Therefore watering down the truth and making evangelism obsolete in his life.
You need to hate your family. That's what it means. But then the bible says that those who don't take care of their immediate family is worse than an unbeliever. How do you reconcile it? Show them love but understand that when it comes to the faith, you shouldn't give a hoot about maintaining peace in the family and upsetting anyone. Jesus didn't come for peace but division. He told us he was going to break up families. So DON'T try to hold the family together by holding back the truth. They're not your real family anyhow. What's love? Feelings? No! In this sense, love is giving your family a chance to escape the fires of hell. Christianity is hard.
You need to confront false teachers and hypocrites. The bible even teaches that you shouldn't even greet or bid farewell to a false teacher because you would be offering peace with them and in essence agreeing with their heresies. Yet the Bible also mentions that Jesus longed to gather the hypocritical pharisees under his wing like a hen gathers her chicks. He wept for them after he ripped them up in Matthew 23. What's love? Being polite? I don't see that anywhere in 1 Corinthians 13. Don't hold back the truth. How else will they hear if you don't offend them. How will your brother grow to be more holy if you don't offend him with a rebuke for sinning against you. You don't think God still smacks you up? It's done in love. Stop changing the meaning of love to be some hollywood mushy garbage. Christianity is real. Real hard. So join Jesus La Familia and get gangsta with it.

UFO specials poppin off!
Consider this an extension of my UFO and Illuminati videos...
I'm writing the day after the Mumbai terrorist attacks. It's strange how distant the concept of Jihad has been since the economic crisis began. But you need to keep in mind that the calamities will not cease but only escalate. The timing of this event (I refer to it as timing because events like this are planned and is far deeper than the average person is willing to credit it) is coming with a simultaneous bombardment of UFO specials. CNN has recently aired an exclusive online brief and also a more lengthy UFO report two days ago. Foxnews and Sean Hannity are planning for a full length special tonight. I'm not sure if they're planning this for propaganda to begin spreading but it's a very interesting move on the Illuminati's part. Please take a moment to view this clip from a few months back. These reports are far more serious in nature than even five years ago and you'll find that more and more this will stray away from the realm of science fiction.
Beyond the lack of ridicule present in some of these specials is the amount of interesting feedback and response from the people. I am convinced that Satan's foot soldiers are even working the world of blogs and youtube comments to steer the people towards "solutions" that are as clear as day (to them anyways). Check out this comment that I found underneath one of the UFO vids I viewed...
"the reason the government wont allow people to know about UFOs.. is because they use religion to brainwash alot of americans and to keep them stupid so they can make all this f#$kin money of illigel stuff that they do... if ALIENS get revieled..the whole religion bullsh!t will get exposed and people will start thinking more for themselves"
That was left unedited by me. Isn't it interesting how God is the ultimate enemy? Keep your eyes peeled and do combat the misleading propaganda when you come across it.
