I’m literally in tears writing this! March 25, 2026, I almost had a nervous breakdown! I didn’t know what was happening to me. All I knew is that was at the end of my rope. I couldn’t hide my lack of emotional health any longer. It’s been a long road, but this journey would not be possible with out these people and more. If I didn’t picture you charge it to my head and not my heart. These are some of the people that went out of their way to carry me through this and many still are. People jumped on planes and drove great distances to sit and just be there. Others made sure I just got away. Everyone of these people has extremely busy lives, but they made sure I was good and my family as well. Everyone needs pastoring, mentoring, accountability, healthy peers and community, and of course family! I am so grateful for you all and I want to just say thank you! OH LORD I’m a mess! 🤧😭 “A friend loves at all times, And a brother is born for adversity.” Proverbs 17:17 P.S. your comments matter. So many across the terrestrial ball has spoken in and over my lil life. I’m GRATEFUL for the body of Yehoshua. I LOVE the church SO MUCH! To Elohim be all the Kabod #mentalhealth

I’m better but have a LONG way to go. First off I want to thank all you who have pulled up on me against my liking, those making me get out into the sunlight, holding me accountable to workout, challenging me to press into YHWH. With mental health challenges you sometimes don’t want to do anything. I have been and will be continuing intensive therapy sessions. I’ve had sessions through my therapist, my family, my Pastor, and several mentors that have been in my life for decades. In this post, I’m not looking for advice, it’s just that I’m getting so many messages online and through other means to where I just wanna let you all know where I am and what’s going on. As the Lord frees me to do so I’ll do updates. The overwhelming outpouring this week has been more than I could ever imagine. At times this has felt like a lonely journey but Holy Spirit has been amazing. I read the word everyday and send up staccato prayers. But much of this time I’ve been speechless before God. YHWH has told me that one day he will free me to tell the whole story of this journey, but today my full time job is to HEAL! One of the biggest words that I’ve gotten during this time from a dear brother was Jesus said “it is finished, not I am finished”. I needed that!

This year has been the hardest year of my life! I’ve been on medical leave for my mental health! I’m still healing and recovering, but some changes are on the way. We have loved the 20 + yrs we’ve been in Philly. YHWH has done much and we are grateful. However, our season in Philly has come to a close. These have been some of the most impactful times of our lives and we are grateful to @epiphfellowship for everything. Our hope is that you will continue to grow and flourish for many years to come. Pray for us as we enter this new season. Pray also for my continued healing and peace, remembering I’m YHWH’s son first, a husband, father, and minister of the gospel (that order). We will send updates as they come. We love you all.

A friend hit on these babies for me. This is a grail! Goin thru somethings right now, this just made my day. Shout out to the homie, you know who you are…When YHWH GIVES YOU A KISS 😭😭😭

Words that are over used to gaslight and avoid accountability Narcissist Abuse Trauma/traumatized Boundaries Protecting my peace Living my truth Toxic Triggered Self-care Self love Gaslighting Insensitive “Therapy speak” refers to the adoption of psychological, clinical language in everyday conversation. While intended to foster emotional awareness, it is often used as social shorthand, resulting in misused or “weaponized” terms like gaslighting, boundaries, and narcissist. Common phrases include “holding space,” “trauma dumping,” and “toxic”. Some of these terms are so overused that many are becoming numb to them.

Stop pressuring young people into marriage to deal with “purity” issues. Sex isn’t the foundation for marriage, but Christ’s relationship with the church and authentic comparable companionship is! (Genesis 2:20, Ephesians 5:23-33)

Every athlete needs to understand the rulebook, every musician is better if they don’t just know how to make beats, but to play a instrument in our music theory, a contractor needs to take great pains to understand the basics of their craft. If that’s true of these natural things how much more is it for a disciple of Jesus Christ. Come on its five month journey to build a solid foundation in your Christian faith. #Khristian #Christianity #Gospel #God #Jesus

The problems with Christian nationalism & why It’s one of the most dangerous false teachings of our day? 1. It Confuses the Kingdom of God with Earthly Nations The Bible consistently teaches that God’s kingdom is not tied to any earthly nation-state. • John 18:36 – Jesus says, “My kingdom is not of this world.” • Philippians 3:20 – “Our citizenship is in heaven.” The people of God are not defined by national borders but by faith in Christ. The church is a transnational community. This becomes clear after Pentecost, where people from many nations become one people of God. 2. It Reverses the New Testament Mission The New Testament mission is making disciples of all nations, not making one nation Christian. • Matthew 28:19 – “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations.” The church spreads through evangelism and discipleship, not through state power. 3. It Confuses the Church with the State Scripture keeps a clear distinction between the mission of the church and the role of government. • Romans 13:1–7 – Government exists to restrain evil and maintain order. • Acts 5:29 – “We must obey God rather than men.” Government has a limited, temporal role, while the church carries the spiritual mission of redemption. 4. It Tempts Christians Toward Idolatry of Nation Scripture repeatedly warns against idolatry, including trusting political powers instead of God. • Psalm 146:3 – “Do not put your trust in princes.” • Isaiah 31:1 – Warning against trusting political alliances instead of God. When national identity becomes sacred, it can become an idol. 5. It Undermines the Multiethnic Nature of the Church The gospel creates a multiethnic people of God, not a single cultural or national expression. • Revelation 7:9 – A multitude from every nation, tribe, people, and language. • Ephesians 2:14–16 – Christ breaks down dividing walls between peoples. Christian nationalism often elevates one culture or ethnicity as the “true Christian culture.” 6. It Risks Forcing External Christianity Without Heart Conversion Biblically, true faith must be voluntary and internal. • Jeremiah 31:33 – God writes the law on hearts. • John 3:3 – People must be born again. State-enforced Christianity can create cultural Christianity without genuine faith. 7. Presents a false form of the Christian faith to the world * 2 Corinthians 6:3 It creates obstacle to the gospel for non-Christian’s * Matthew 23:23 seeks to rewrite history to subvert biblical justice Christian nationalism bears false witness and creates cognitive dissonance to blind people to the comprehensive scope of the gospel. They affirm the content of the gospel, but deny its scope thereby preaching another gospel To all the non-Christians, who will look at this post this is not THE WAY or what is commonly called Christianity? It is something else. “I mean strictly to apply to the slaveholding religion of this land, and with no possible reference to Christianity proper; for, between the Christianity of this land, and the Christianity of Christ, I recognize the widest possible difference—so wide, that to receive the one as good, pure, and holy, is of necessity to reject the other as bad, corrupt, and wicked. To be the friend of the one, is of necessity to be the enemy of the other. I love the pure, peaceable, and impartial Christianity of Christ: I therefore hate the corrupt, slaveholding, women-whipping, cradle-plundering, partial and hypocritical Christianity of this land — Frederick Douglas “Woe to those who enact evil statutes And to those who constantly record mischief, So as to turn the poor away from their cause And rob the afflicted of My people of their justice, Isa 10:1-2 ““Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint and dill and cumin, and have neglected the weightier provisions of the Law: justice and mercy and faithfulness; Matt 23:23-24 —Yehoshua #christian #justice #God #Jesus #christiannationalism

These tariffs are crazy…

In a culture where the church and its leaders are at times rightfully critiqued, there are great leaders and churches that are healthy out there. Anyone in ministry that has tried to do this thing right, PLEASE HANG STRONG! Rewards from man can be quite thin and even taken for granted by those you’ve invested much in. Ministry hurt as a leader can be one of the most PAINFUL wounds to navigate! Many of us are fighting and forced to heal in silence! YHWH sees and will reward in HIS WAY in due time! STAY THE COURSE! “He was despised and forsaken of men, A man of sorrows and acquainted with grief; And like one from whom men hide their face He was despised, and we did not esteem Him. ¶Surely our griefs He Himself bore, And our sorrows He carried; Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken, Smitten of God, and afflicted.” Isaiah 53:3-4 “And let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary.” Galatians 6:9 “Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 15:58 #church #God #Jesus #Leadership #christian

The reason I shepherd in the local church is to lead, feed, care, know, protect the flock of Elohim among me. I do online content mainly for them but people have asked for help with their faith outside our local church. Here is the opportunity to grow. Defending the faith doesn’t start with apologetics, but learning the basics of the faith. This doesn’t replace the local church but is a servant to it! This is for those who want to be on the journey to get clarity about the faith. If you aren’t currently in a local church hopefully this can be your road back to health local community. If you are in one hopefully this serves you as well. I’ve received messages from countless people asking how they chose and church? How can they get help with the foundations of the Christian faith? Where can they start? As promised, here it is! Classes, reading assignments, and tools will be a part of this. In other words by the grace of Yeshua, we gonna put you on truth in the kingdom. “until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the full knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ, so that we are no longer to be children, tossed here and there by waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, by craftiness in deceitful scheming, but speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, that is Christ,” Ephesians 4:13-15 #christian #bible #GOD #Jesus #faith pastoremase.com/the-remnant-…

Having a platform without pastoral guidance, local church community, peer sharpening, biblical literacy & theological & soul/character accountability leads individualistic idolatry that panders for personal affirmation, opportunistic selfish ambition and narrative control. James 3:13-18

@bk_apologist sent me this! It’s from a guy name Garfield who engages in the black conscious community. He isn’t a Christian but a skeptic. This was his exhortation to Hebrew Israelites who dog the Black church and Christianity. This is his unbiased response. I couldn’t have said it better #blackhistorymonth #christianity #christian #God #Jesus

The job of a shepherd is to    ·      Lead (1Timothy 5:17) ·      Feed (Ezekiel 34) ·      Care (Ezekiel 34) ·      Know (Proverbs 27:23) ·      Protect (Titus 1:10)   At times as many of us do the work of protection, I am appalled at the fact that good shepherds are bit by some of the people whom they trying to protect. The level of deception and biblical illiteracy is astounding and even painful. The boastful pride of the misinformed who are viewed as spiritual and informed is troubling. YHWH has shown me that He is doing a partial fulfillment of this verse. “And for this reason, God sends upon them a deluding influence so that they will believe what is false, in order that they all may be judged who did not believe the truth but took pleasure in unrighteousness. 2 Thessalonians 2:11-12 LSB

For the next few Sundays, I am going to be preaching on Breaking Free from Sexual Strongholds. Ever since the Spirit of God dropped this on me to do, I have been under severe spiritual warfare, please keep me lifted

The incomprehensibility of Elohim is the theological doctrine that, because YHWH is infinite and human minds are finite, He cannot be fully known or exhaustively understood by humanity. It does not mean YHWH is entirely unknowable, but rather that His nature, ways, and purposes exceed complete comprehension, demanding faith, humility, and trust in revealed truth.  Key aspects of this doctrine include: Definition: It is the inability of a created, limited mind to grasp the totality of an uncreated, infinite Being. When people tell me they don’t understand the Trinity or understand something about Elohim. I’m not dismissive but this attribute/perfection of YAH helps us understand better. We have to come to terms with how He reveals Himself, not tweak Him to fit our own fancy and interests. If everything about YHWH makes human sense, it’s not Him but an idol of our own making! “Great is Yahweh, and highly to be praised, And His greatness is unsearchable.” Psalm 145:3 #God #YHWH #Elohim #incomprehensible #Jesus

There is a deep desire for people to have spiritual experiences, but they aren’t discerning what that experience is rooted in. Elohim provides both concrete truth and experiences. True divine Experience comes from immutable truth and truth ALWAYS leads to transformational experiences. They are NEVER at odds, but the are siamese twins of the will of YHWH in the life of those who know Him!

Christian syncretism is a heretical and heterodoxy of the blending of Christian beliefs, doctrines, and practices with non-Christian, pagan, or secular traditions, resulting in a hybrid faith system. It involves merging diverse religious ideas—such as incorporating folk religion,, philosophy, or cultural traditions—into Christian worship, often diluting or compromising the core, exclusive tenets of the faith. Deuteronomy 4:19 And beware lest you raise your eyes to heaven, and when you see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the host of heaven, you be drawn away and bow down to them and serve them, things that the Lord your God has allotted to all the peoples under the whole heaven. Isaiah 47:13-14 You are wearied with your many counsels; let them stand forth and save you, those who divide the heavens, who gaze at the stars, who at the new moons make known what shall come upon you. Behold, they are like stubble; the fire consumes them; they cannot deliver themselves from the power of the flame. No coal for warming oneself is this, no fire to sit before! Daniel 4:7 Then the magicians, the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the astrologers came in, and I told them the dream, but they could not make known to me its interpretation. #Jesus #astrology #astronomy #bible #God
