In this segment: Chadwick apologizes for any missed questions, emphasizing his commitment to respectful communication with all people. He explains that life becomes easier when one allows God to be the avenger, overcoming evil with good, and expresses appreciation for the fellowship during the long Shabbat session.
It's really future tense, it's talking about Antichrist, which is a Nebuchadnezzar-like figure. It says that his yoke will be broken off of your shoulders because of the holy anointing oil. Okay. So there's a cleansing that has to be done to the land as well whenever there's innocent blood being spilled, or on the individual there, being broke off of your shoulders as well. So there's a great understanding in the prophet Isaiah that whenever Yeshua returns, there's going to be a cleansing of the land. Not only by the holy anointing oil, Exodus 30, but also remember where does it say, Ezekiel, that they have to cleanse the land because of all the dead bodies. Okay? In the land, they have to bury the bodies, burn the weapons to cleanse the land. You know, it says that. So, he gets the bird and the beast to come, I mean, come to the supper, right? The birds and the beast, excuse me. He gets them to come clean up the flesh, and then the bones and all that.
I mean, just think about that. I mean, think about the bird feast. Okay? Think about Job 12 and how he loves the beast and the birds and all that. And what does he say in Revelation? Come to the supper of the Lord for the animals. Okay? So, there's not only the supper for all of us with Yeshua in Revelation 19, the supper of the Lamb, there's the supper of the Lamb with his creation of his animals as well. Just, I mean, feasting off of the flesh of the evil people. Okay? Think about that. Think about 200 million people being slaughtered by Messiah. And I think that's just the low point. I think it's more than that, but that's what's recorded in the scriptures. So, we'll just stick with that. 200 million flesh, okay, will be eaten by the birds and the beast. Okay, that's what he says. Call all the birds, Ezekiel, to come, just like Noah called them to the ark, right? Come to the bird. Can you imagine that?
Can you, and you're going to see that, okay? You and I will see that because we're going to be with him. And whether he is is where the carcasses will be, is what he said. I mean, think about that. Wherever I am is where the carcasses will be. Or wherever the carcasses are, I will be. Boy, howdy. Think about that. Okay? I mean, he's coming for business. Okay? And then he gets his creation to clean it up.
The birds and beasts will eat the flesh of kings and evil people, and then His people will bury the bones to cleanse the land. Ezekiel even states that the land will be cleansed once the bones are buried and the flesh has been consumed. After this, weapons will be burned for seven months, and then the millennial kingdom will begin. A cleansing of the land is necessary due to the violence discussed.
Deuteronomy 21 addresses the unknown killer and outlines the statutes for unintentional killing versus murder. God meticulously details these requirements for His people.
The Holy Spirit is guiding and leading you, Mr. Danielle. Your humility and gratitude are commendable. God has given me the *gavvel*. I used to be arrogant and prideful, not yet born again. I hope I wasn't, but if we're not born again, we are all prideful and egotistical. Hopefully, I have always been kind, but biblically speaking, I was arrogant and prideful, doing my own thing. The *gavvel* came, and I thank Him for it. I thank Him as much as I remember for getting me on my face and truly judging my evil. I lived like an idiot on this earth, and I thank Him for that. Looking back, I can see what God has done in my life. He is very long-suffering, patient, and merciful.
For 38 years, I was a yo-yo, to put it mildly, on the Sabbath. I was an absolute mess, and I can admit that. This gives me the personal convictions I need to remember where I came from. God told me my life was a lie when I was in the French Quarter in New Orleans on Halloween. He told me my life was a lie and many other things. I appreciate Him for doing that because I needed it. I look back and think, "Good night, I was so far off."
Please don't misunderstand, but this is what Christianity will do to you when they tell you you don't have to follow God, that you have grace, and that you are good. No, I wasn't good; I was going to hell. He told me my life was a lie because I believed I didn't have to follow God's ways due to Christianity. That's why I speak about Christianity the way I do. If He is telling a pagan like me to get out of my pagan ways and come to the truth, then He is saying that to many Christians, but are they listening to the Holy Spirit? That's the key. I didn't listen for a long time. 38 years—think of all the good I could have done for God. Instead, I was doing it for myself, living for myself, building my kingdom, living my best life. And He told me what He told me. I love and appreciate that because I desperately needed it, and no one else would have told me. The church wouldn't tell me that. They'd say, "Oh, you're doing good. You have a cross around your neck. You come. Celebrating Christmas and Easter, you're good, Chadwick. You're good? You have the grace?" No, I didn't have the grace at all.
I remember that night like it was yesterday. We're just talking on the Sabbath. You know how your life flashes before you? I was in New Orleans, and everyone knows what New Orleans is like. I love the culture and the people, though perhaps not what goes on there anymore. I was in New Orleans doing things I shouldn't have been doing: alcohol, drugs. "Ain't life grand?" Halloween. Think about that. Just think about what I just told you: Halloween, drugs, alcohol, French Quarter. "Ain't life grand," right? That's where many Christians are right now. I wasn't the only one.
I went back with my friends to their hotel room at the Roosevelt Hotel. It was late, just the three of us. They were sitting up, and I was sitting by the table. I looked towards the hotel door, and my life flashed before me. The fear of God came upon me. It wasn't grace; it was fear. I was in fear, I'll be honest. I got up, told my friends I loved them, and left. I went to my hotel room, sobered up, and drove to my hometown, where I wept for about a week. He told me what He told me, and that's why I'm doing what I'm doing.
If it weren't for that evening, and also what He showed me with the calendar and the feast days, I wouldn't be talking to you right now. I'd probably be dead and going to hell. That's why I have the convictions I have. I'd rather tell Christian people the truth than not. I was just like many Christians now, partying on Bourbon Street, thinking we have grace and it's okay to be part of this stuff. No, it's not. It's not okay to be part of the world. It's not okay to be part of the social life in the French Quarter where only bad things happen.
Is someone going to hell for going to the French Quarter for a weekend? I don't think so. He was getting my attention because of my lifestyle. It just happened to be the culmination of a lifestyle of yo-yo, of stupidity on my part. That's why I say what I say. I'd rather Christians hate me and listen to the truth than love me and say, "Yeah, you can do all this stuff that I was doing." No, you can't. You have to get in alignment. Whether you're Jew or Christian, you have to get in alignment with Him. I'm so thankful He did that because if He hadn't, I'd probably be dead and going to hell.
I truly believe that if I had reviled against Him one more time, the real *gavvel* would have come. I'm living on borrowed time. I think we all are, but I specifically feel I'm living on borrowed time because I shouldn't even be here. So, while I am here, I'm going to speak it out to the best of my ability with the truth. I'm not perfect, and I don't know everything, but I'm going to try to do my part because I know many people are in the same position I was, thinking everything is cool. It's not cool if you're doing what I was doing, living for the world, social life, alcohol, drugs. It's just not cool.
I hope to encourage people. I used to be the king of the hokey pokey, one foot in, one foot out. I wasn't even doing the hokey pokey; at best, I was one foot in, one foot out. You can't be that way. You can't be like I used to be, saying, "I'm a Christian, but I look like I'm part of the world." No, you just can't. It wasn't cool for me, and it wasn't cool for many others. He corrected all of us. I say this because I love people, and many Christians have the same mindset I did: that they can do their own thing because they have grace. That's just not what the Bible teaches.
I hope to inspire someone out there who may have backtracked or backslid. It's okay, but understand that He will only put up with it for so long before the *gavvel* comes. He expects us to listen. I've been there. I've been in the darkness. I know what it is. I know many Christians think like I used to, and that is a dangerous mindset to stand before the King of Israel with. It's a dangerous mindset because of the church, because of Christianity, because of the false theology they teach. That's why I say what I say.
If I haven't told people that, maybe it will give them more understanding of why I say what I say. I've been there. I know the difference between Christianity and following Jesus, Yeshua. There's a huge difference. It's not even in the same ballpark. One day, I might do a video on why I left Christianity to follow Jesus. Many will think that's stupid because they don't know there's a difference. Christianity does not follow Jesus. Morally, they might try their best, but with the ways of worship, they don't follow Jesus at all. Not one celebration do Christians do. I used to do it too. I didn't worship Jesus in truth for 38 years because I was following Christianity: Sunday, Sabbath, Christmas, Easter, Halloween. There's a huge difference, everybody. Either follow Him, or we're not in alignment. And when people aren't in alignment in the Bible, bad things happen.
I'm not saying this to compare stories or anything like that. I'm trying to tell Christian people in general: it's not what the church thinks. You cannot be a part of the world like I used to be and walk with Yeshua. You just can't. That is lukewarmness at best, or even cold. And what does He do with lukewarmness? Out. Out. Out. That got my attention. Maybe that will relate to some people who need to tighten things up. I had everything to tighten up, from top to bottom. I had no clue what was going on. I had no idea how to love God, if that makes sense. You all understand because you've crossed over, but I had no idea how to love God the way He wanted me to. "If you love me, Chadwick, you will keep my commandments." That's how He wants me to love Him, through the commandments, to sanctify me, to separate me, to set me apart.
