Transcript of this segment

And so shalom to you and thank you as well for joining us tonight and for your kind remarks, and we stand with you on your prayers and also what you wrote in the emails as well. We hope all is well in Estonia. Mr. Michael, shalom to you. Thank you so much for joining us. We hope you're having a great week and we hope that you get sealed into the Most High as well during this time period. Yes, I have seen your email and I will respond to you here tomorrow, my friend. Been a busy week, so please forgive me. And I guess it's still the week, Mr. Michael. Please pray for people because people will celebrate Halloween on the Sabbath. I hate Halloween. Yeah. I mean, there are two great sins there: number one, breaking the Sabbath, and Halloween. So, two bad things that are coming here this Shabbat for a lot of Christians, you know. Even in my hometown, you see these churches doing trunk-or-treat or whatever they call this stuff, and you just want to go there and you want to act like Judah Maccabee, you know what I'm saying?

Not really. And I'm not, but you just want to go in there and you just want to, like Abraham did with Terah's idols as well, you know, go in there and just break all of them. You know, that's what Abraham did to his father's idols if you go read some of the extra-biblical sources. And that's what needs to happen ultimately. And I think at the appointed time, God will allow some of these things to happen to get the people's attention. Remember, and people might not want to receive this, but remember when ISIS ramped through the Middle East and broke all those idols in the Middle East. Now, again, no one supports ISIS. But again, God will allow a Nebuchadnezzar or an ISIS to go tear down a bunch of idols over in the Middle East. He will allow that. And again, I think He's going to allow that again, you know, because of the idolatry that we're seeing in some of the land. So, yes, our Christian friends need to really wake up.

This should be common sense about Halloween. Goodness, God told me my life was a lie on Halloween, 2014. That's when I was born again was after that. So again, I've got a personal account on that as well. I mean, this should be common sense for me as well back then. But again, I was stupid and I was ignorant and I was in abominations and all these things. That's where I was. I didn't have a clue. And that's why God, in my opinion, He told me what He told me: "Your life is a lie." So Christians are very deceived. If they're deceived on Halloween, you have no clue about Christmas. I mean, if they can't get Halloween right, there's no point even talking to them about Christmas. You won't even get to the front door with that. If they can't get Halloween right, goodness gracious alive. This is easy to understand. Just from a world point of view, it should be easy to understand that this is a demonic holiday that people should not be addressing or being a part of.

You cannot mix the cup of the Lord with the cup of the devil. You just can't. That's what Paul says to my Christian friends. So, if my Christian friends would just go back and read Paul, he would tell you to stay away from Halloween. He'd tell you to celebrate Passover, 1 Corinthians 5:7. He'd tell you to stay away from all this stuff. But unfortunately, I don't think people are reading the Bible. I think people are going to church, getting a motivational speech on a scripture they've heard a thousand times with a cupcake and a coffee, is what I think. Seriously, I mean that is what I truly think. You know, because people, how can you read the Bible and come up with this stuff? Read Paul and come up with this stuff, let alone what God says in Torah about not messing with ghosts and all these wicked things and witchcraft and stuff like that that Christians want to dabble in. I've dabbled in it as well.

So, I'm not being a hypocrite, but I'm just telling you it's wrong because God's just not going to correct you or me and then all the other Christians, you have the grace to go do all that. But Chadwick and whoever else, you cannot do that. Your life's a lie. I mean, come on. I mean, He's the same. He's going to tell everybody the same if people are listening. But people are listening to the false spirit instead of the Holy Spirit, instead of the Spirit of Truth. They're listening to the counterfeit spirit and they're being deceived because, just like Satan told Adam and Eve that they could do whatever they want and God's not going to do that to them. That's the same little Satan that is choking the Christians. "Oh, go ahead. You can do that. What? Don't listen to these people say you can't celebrate Halloween. Come on. That's just a light-hearted thing. Come on." Same thing as in the garden.

That's what Satan told Eve and Adam as well. "Don't worry. Don't worry. It's okay. You've got the grace." Can't you hear Satan say that? "You've got the grace. Go, go, go eat that tree of knowledge of good and evil. You're going to be just fine." Same thing as the Christians today with Halloween and all this stuff. Same thing. They're listening to the same false spirit from Satan saying that they can be a part of these things. They're not realizing what they're doing to their children by putting these things on them. Opening up the demonic to their lives is what they're really doing. If you look at it spiritually, they're opening up the demonic to them. And again, we wonder why some of our children are having a hard time. Well, go look at how you celebrate. And again, I tell the parents this all the time: Parents, if you want to go celebrate all this wicked stuff, go. But leave your kids out of it.

Please leave the children out of it. If you want to go act like a pagan, if you want to go celebrate these crazy things, leave your children out of it. Because all you're doing, or I would be doing, or whoever would be doing, is opening up the demonic activity around our kids by celebrating Halloween, Christmas, and Easter. Go look at the celebrations. Go look at where they come from. No one has the power to overchange those. They would be calling themselves God if they thought they had the power to cleanse Halloween or to cleanse all these other things. They are self-idolatry, is what that is. No one has the power to call anything good or evil or clean or unclean but God. That's it. He's the only one. And He has called everything that we've just mentioned evil. Just to say it nicely, you know, Halloween, all these things that people celebrate because they've got the grace. And we'll find out what does the oil represent in the wise virgin's lamp.

In my personal opinion, it's the word of God. Some people say the Holy Spirit. To me, the same Holy Spirit, word of God. You cannot separate those, as you know, Denise. So for me, the oil represents the word of God. And you put the Holy Spirit as well, because to me, they're one. So again, it's very important, this oil in the wise virgins and the foolish virgins. Because if you really think about it, literally, the wise virgins have oil in their lamp. So they just don't have a lamp that's dark. They have a lamp with oil, and that oil makes light. The foolish virgins have a lamp with no oil. So that means they cannot have light because they have no oil. Right? So it's just a common understanding. And why He said it is, "If you have a lamp, you have oil, you're the light of the world. If you don't have oil in it, you're a believer because you're a virgin, but you're still in darkness because you don't have oil in your lamp." And that person or those people will be told, "I never knew you." You know, how do you know Him?

And that goes into answering the question, I believe, what is oil? Well, how do you know Him? Because that's what Yeshua said. "How do you know Him?" "I never knew you, foolish virgins." You're believers. You believe in Me, but why aren't you a wise virgin? Why don't you have oil in your lamp? And then He says, "You never knew Me," or "I never knew you." Well, how do you know Him? The word of God. We cannot know the Messiah truly unless we know the Torah, the Prophets, and the Psalms. Why? Because number one, that's God's instructions, and that's who Yeshua is. But number two, that's who He is. That's His ways. That's His character. That's who He is. So again, when He says, "I don't know you," or "get lawlessness," or "not the Torah," He's telling everybody, including myself, that if we don't follow His ways, we're not going to know Him. How could you know Him? How can I know my real father on this earth right now if I don't know his ways?

Doesn't that make up the characteristics of my human father on this earth? Doesn't that make up the human quality of my mother as well? How do I know my mother? Do I just know her name or do I know her ways? I know how she is. I know her good qualities. She doesn't have any bad qualities if she's listening, but anyhow. So anyhow, you know what I'm saying? So, you've got to know Him through the word of God. And that's why, in my opinion, we've come to the conclusion, in my opinion, of what oil represents, because He says, "I never knew you," or "I never knew me," or whatever, because there's no oil. What's oil? How do you know Him? The word of God and the precious Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is going to bring Yeshua more real to all of us. Going to point us back to the truth of the scriptures. So, they're really one: the Holy Spirit and the word of God. So, to answer the question, I think it's both of that.

But I think people really need to go to the deeper understanding of a lamp with no Torah and no light. And what does that mean standing before the King of Israel? Not too great. Shalom to you. Thank you so much for joining us, Monster Ball. Always great to see you. We hope you're having a great week and we hope you have a great rest of the week, and we hope that you get sealed in the ark of God and have a beautiful intimate moment with Him. Amen. Amen. And amen. Mr. Michael, why Halloween will be on this Shabbat? Why? Well, that's how the calendar is just rotated. And again, I want to make a quick point of this: just because it's called Saturday on the Gregorian calendar, that's not what the Hebrew calendar says. So it's not Saturday or Saturn in the Hebrew is Shabbat. So, again, we don't go by the Gregorian calendar's names, Saturn, all the stuff, Sunday, sun worship, all the stuff. You know, it's Shabbat is Saturday.

Shabbat. So, people get confused with why they have Shabbat on a Saturn, Saturn day or whatever. No, that's the pagans doing it their way. On the Hebrew calendar, it's Shabbat, you know, pretty much. So, I wanted just to have that. So, that's just the way the calendars collide. But if you're on the biblical calendar, which you are, my friend, who cares what the Gregorian calendar does with all these dates? Now, I care because it's a disgrace what they're doing to Shabbat, especially Halloween on Shabbat. Two great sins on Halloween on this Shabbat: breaking the fourth commandment and worshiping or having a good time on an evil holiday. So, again, people just need to be very careful of these things, of what they're opening up to themselves and also their children. Instead of Halloween, it used to be called All Saints Day. That's right. And then there's the Day of the Dead, or Day of November 1st, and all this pagan stuff.
