Countless Professing Christians claiming Apostle Prophet Paul was a heretic.
One more thing just look at any search engine there’s an incredible amount videos and articles from Professing Christians that despise Beloved Apostle Paul, that he’s totally false.
So many Professing Christians refuse to humble themselves and are now claiming in these last days that the Apostle Paul is a false prophet, a heretic and liar. This is extremely dangerous in many way but most don't care. They know everything. Even though one of the great Pillars of the Early Apostolic Church Apostle Peter forewarned the unstable and disillusioned will self destruct here in the following:
2 Peter 3:15-16
"And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction."
@freedom5 My studies stated Paul is the only biblical character that actually was found in the Roman government documents of the time, listed as a soldier.
@freedom5 Saint Paul was always on both sides of the line, he carried truth and contradictions, but heresy is an accusation that doesn’t hold water.

Mainstream media and Democrat politicians blame Trump for firing feds who may turn their backs on America.
www.infowars.com@Jleimer Wait until the leftist union workers pension funds collapse. Teachers, Auto-Workers. Government pension funds are buy offs. If these people lose their guaranteed income they will lose it. Then the very young USA country, only 249 years old, will learn the lessons other countries have already learned and survived. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.
FDA announces new "toxic elements" transparency tool (https://hfpappexternal.fda.gov/scripts/fdcc/?set=contaminant-levels&sort=Contaminant&order=ASC&startrow=1&type=basic&search=toxic%20element) but doesn't list a single turmeric test showing high levels of lead in turmeric. Or moringa herb. Or cadmium in cacao, coffee, etc. This tool is useless. Sec Kennedy please tell the FDA to do better. This tool is a joke.
@HealthRanger Still looks like blue smoke and mirrors, same old same old. There is no reason to trust the new leadership. They need full exposure. Keep up the warnings Mike, very much appreciated.
Food additives can wait, FDA. BAN THE F'N KILLSHOTS, ALREADY!!
"Then came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying, Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.
"But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition? For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.
"But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.
"Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me. But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men." - Matthew 15:1-9 KJV
@whozis If your parents are a couple of fools does God expect you to honor them? At what age would God expect a person raised by evil parents not to honor them, nor obey their training? And however you answer, how do you know you are right?
I usually don't engage with antagonistic questioning. Trust in the scriptures of the Holy Bible as inspired by God, and the words of Jesus as the words from God informs my foundation of righteousness. In other words, God is right, Jesus brought that rightness to us, and therefore it is righteous. By the way, I made no comment above, I merely quoted the scriptures.
Did those "fools" or "evil people" rear you to adulthood? Keep you from starving? From dying from the ravages of weather? Nursed you when sick? Changed your diapers? They gave you honor in that they assisted your (1) coming into the world and (2) achieving adulthood. These accomplishments should be reciprocated by honoring, or assisting, them in old age or in other dire situations.
If the faked "autopen" Biden signatures are null and void on the pre-emptive pardons, then they are null and void on everything. The entire Biden term is null and void, including all the laws that were signed, the federal judge appointments, the SCOTUS appointment, the EOs and all the rest. First, the 2020 election was rigged and stolen. And second, Biden was never really in command anyway. Probably it was Jill running the autopen, and nobody elected Jill to anyone. Fraud vitiates everything!
@HealthRanger I wish they would rule on the Brunson case too. That would double tap Biden and it would get about 385 members of Congress too.
I really want to see all those democrats that said Trump was lying all face down on the floor begging for mercy in front of a TV camera.
This is not a case where forgiveness is appropriate.
@HealthRanger Well I think it's legitimate to say that most of the pardons are a massive exercise of fraud and needs to be reversed. Biden had no ideas and could not pardon many of these criminal.. it's a crime against humanity, usurpation of presidential power by the deep state, the illuminati.
I wish they could reverse it, but the Illuminaty have all the Judges on their side to cheat all the outcome they want. They just pick up the telephone, call a judge and ask for a reversal of an executive order or what have you.
it's going to be 4 years of only fighting sabotage like this and corrupted judges causing delays.
I really hope that this will change.
@HealthRanger It was not Joe Biden. He was executed over four years ago for child sex crimes. They put the fake Biden in and no one said a word the whole time.
The vaccine industry is a DEATH industry that pays US Senators to make sure the vaccine violence continues, which benefits Big Pharma's bottom line while simultaneously accelerating human depopulation via infertility and "died suddenly." Every U.S. senator who votes with Big Pharma is voting for ongoing suffering and death of Americans.
@HealthRanger At this point, the people still falling for the lie are cult members.
Those US Senators didn't need to be paid much. Those demons are happy just to be in the club implementing the Great Culling. The dumb fux probably don't even realize that they too are scheduled to be "Culled" by their handlers, two weeks after the rest of us.
IMHO, THEY have failed in duping nearly a high enough percentage of people to successfully pull off their Hell on Earth plan. Far too many people know the "Vaccines" are deadly bioweapons. Far too many people know submitting to the next wave of tyranny would mean misery n death beyond imagination. We will resist to the death. That makes us uncontrollable.
It's up to God if/when THEY succeed in creating a nuclear holocaust. Whether we kill them before they make it to their bunkers. Or, their own security personnel execute them inside their bunkers. It won't matter which. We'll all stand before Jesus at The Judgement
@HealthRanger At last I can agree with something Mike says. Mike, you are absolutely correct.
How many Americans were killed by Google, YouTube, Vimeo, LinkedIn, Facebook and other tech platforms during COVID due to their extreme censorship and silencing of those who warned about the jabs and tried to tell people about ivermectin?
@HealthRanger THE ANSWER IS ZERO PEOPLE WERE KILLED BY CENSORSHIP. How many people suffered the consequences of their failure to do their own homework? How many people who couldn't deal with the facts Natural News, Infowars, etc., distributed and they ignored so many warnings for so many years? REALITY IS A BITCH AND ON ANY GIVEN DAY CAN SMACK YOU ACROSS THE FACE. Hammer the message that each of us has a responsibility to choose life or death every day. And if you won't invest your time in determining your values, and develop rational, logical reasoning skills YOU AND YOU ALONE ARE CHOOSING DEATH OVER LIFE AND FREEDOM...EVERY DAY.
I believe it was in the book THINK AND GROW RICH, "the hardest thing to do is to THINK AND THAT IS WHY MOST PEOPLE AVOID IT."
Mike, good people need support in waking up. Censorship will always be a tool used against the people. Its a poor excuse to blame censorship for the people who avoid taking PERSONAL RESPONSIBLITY FOR THEMSELVES.
Throughout history every time EVIL gets more organized than GOOD, mankind suffers terrible events. Each time when good men and women re-organize to face the EVIL they over come it.
I know its not easy for people to face their shortcomings but well worth the effort. MIKE PREACH THE MENTAL JOURNEY YOU EXPERIENCED TO DEVELOPE YOUR CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS. I hear it almost daily in your Podcasts. What tools can you offer your audience to prep against censorship? Because if the general public couldn't see the obvious back when COVID was launched, all the dead victims won't get a second chance. To many of their relatives are working overtime to deny reality in facing the real truth of what their government and networks they support did to their loved ones. Their decisions to avoid personal responsibility and pass on their decision making to the medical professionals gave them the "freedom" they desired. Stinking thinking shortened their lifespan.
You vented well about the Super Bowl and that is one example of how you were trying to prep people about censorship and distractions tools used to work against them facing reality. Self destructive behavior, if you don't have the courage to think you have no one to blame but your self. NO EXCUSES, CHOOSE LIFE!
I hope you're very young. I might then be able to excuse your horrendous attitude. I suggest you Thank God every day for the discernment He granted you. Now, reflect on the many mistakes YOU have made in life. Don't be so quick to judge others. I hope you see how wrong you are in this, sooner than later.
BTW, God blessed me w/the knowledge to not take those Killshots, too. I've compassion for the myriad types of people who were duped n coerced. Good Luck to you.
@Born2Late Defining terms is important. It is compassionate to help people accept their personal responsibility. The Scriptures are full of that exact messaging. Check the following premises?
"Don't be so quick to judge others." Scriptures require you to use good judgement every day, you've assumed a lot to make that statement.
"God blessed me..." implies he didn't bless others equally. Perhaps you think more than most?
"I've compassion..." virtue signaling while encouraging others to play the victim? In my value system I would need to protect myself from your logic and still respect your right to think whatever you want as long as it doesn't violate the rights of others.
Some people's value systems and thought process led them to the wrong decision, A=A. Pointing it out can be viewed as compassionate. I hope you enjoy a good mental journey in exploring; What do you know and how do you know it?
On a lighter note, the day you were born, God looked down upon the Earth and said it could not go on with out YOU. Your Birthday, you were born at the exact right time. Best Wishes for you.
Wow... Well, I tried. The Holy Bible teaches us to walk a mile in someone else's shoes before trying to judge them.
Clearly, some of us knew to not take the Killshots, n many did not. Yes, God blessed me w/that knowledge. He blessed you, too.
I've no need to virtue signal. Your defensiveness shows you know your guilt. You've a ton of hate in your heart. I suggest you focus on improving yourself, n not spewing hatred on many people you clearly don't understand.
I wish you luck, too. I tried an honest appeal to you. It's up to you whether or not you listen. I don't come here to squabble. We're done

@HealthRanger I agree that censorship is wrong and cost lives. At the same time I agree with the comment above that it's up to each individual to seek the truth. I would like to see a decentralized, off-grid solution here. As more people recognize how many people died for lack of knowledge during COVID and beyond, perhaps we could build monuments to free speech and to the people who died for lack thereof in town and city centers all across America. I'm envisioning covered outdoor pavilions with benches and a podium in front where anyone who has something to say can speak to anyone who wants to listen at any time.
There should be no doors or gates on these pavilions. Nothing that could ever be locked to keep people out. No windows that could be shuttered. No need for high-tech equipment that could be tampered with. They should be built to the parameters of size and acoustics such that a human voice coming from behind the podium can reach everyone seated within the pavilion. Maybe you could have time limits for speakers, like an hour per speaker per day, to keep anyone from monopolizing the structure. But no limits on the subject on which they speak.
@HealthRanger I wan politely say that Mike is right. Most people, especially where I live in California have been indoctrinated by the powers above and are not given the chance to think for themselves. The system is set up for non-thinking to thrive. Trump is bringing that system down and hopefully more people will wake up to what Natural News and Infowars says. Because we all can’t live by Baden’s auto pen.
@artalep Traditional Schooling today and for at least the last 40 years has attacked our children's mental health. Any parent who is not HOME EDUCATING has justified in their minds the sacrificing of their children's mental development to the State.
Parents must overlook the following to send their children into the traditional school system;
10th plank of the Communist Manifesto-Public Education
Critical thinking skills challenged with false, untrue and slanted programing of the students.
Failure to keep the children in safe and healthy learning environments.
Allow their children to be influenced with miss-information, contradictions and the denial of reality- A does not equal A.
Allow the corrupt system to manage their lives and development for 12-18 years.
Allow their children to suffer the consequences of being punished for defending themselves against bully behavior.
The list can go on and on.
Parents must DE-SCHOOL THEMSELVES first to be able to save their own children. To deny these realities and attacks on your family is far to common. Think of the opponents of "homeschooling"- UN-DOE-WHO-NEA.
Many parents woke up during COVID roll out. If you aren't facing reality on your responsibility as a parent yet you are abusing your children by letting traditional schools get away with it. Your children deserve a better start.
Understand that for the Democrats watching the draining of the swamp right now, all they hope to achieve is the defeat of Trump and the RECONSTRUCTION of the full swamp that Trump and DOGE are dismantling. Democrats want to bring back the fraud, the slush fund money, the money laundering, the open borders child trafficking, the Ukraine kickbacks, etc., because that's what keeps them in power. If we do not permanently defeat the Democrats and destroy their corrupt supply chains of money and power, we will never truly be a free and prosperous nation. FULL SPEED AHEAD!
@HealthRanger
All we have won, is on a temporary basis. Unless "Executive Orders" are rescinded and prevented the next administration can re-install all the changes in less than 30 days. The original Constitution was circumvented with the Civil War. The Emergency Powers Act, the change from a "Union" over to a "Nation" and after Lincoln decided that the colonies were allowed to join the UNION but had no freedom to EXIT the Union. The Civil War never ended, we have been distracted. Enjoy the break Trump is providing and continue to prep. It will come down to your local and state governments on how much freedom you and family may experience going forward. Patrick Henry wouldn't endorse the US Constitution and one of his reasons stated was; the new form government would only work if HONEST MEN WERE IN OFFICE. He knew better than that over 250 years ago. Gravitate towards freedom!
STRATEGY ANALYSIS: If you're wondering why Trump isn't yet pushing Congress to pass laws supporting his agenda, he's waiting for the mass resignations of Democrats, following all the revelations of massive money laundering, USAID kickbacks, Ukraine kickbacks, racketeering, etc. When those hit, you'll see a wave of resignations from the House and several in the Senate as well. When that runs its course, then Trump will have a strong majority in both chambers, and he can then achieve profound, historic reforms such as revoking the NFA (National Firearms Act), outlawing Big Pharma drug advertising, nationalizing the Fed, ending the IRS and other grand goals. He will need Congress, and Congress is about to see historic resignations. You'll soon see. Most Trump supporters still aren't thinking big enough about what's in store...
We sure hope you're right, Mike. It'd be much better to save our country without resorting to martial law. Those Uniparty traitors shouldn't get too comfy in their forced retirements. We'll be coming for them w/righteous legal sledgehammers
@HealthRanger Mitch McConnel voting for Kash Patel seems to be a sign of exactly that type of capitulation. Resignations may only occur if arrests are made on high profile leaders. I am most interested to see if the Marine Corp has been compromised. If Trump doesn't have the support of the military to follow his orders these victories can collapse quickly. Signs of his disappointment on the rate of the arrest of illegals is another sign of law enforcement being to compromised to act quickly and get the job done. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.
@HealthRanger Watched recently:
David Wilcock LIVE: The Great Revealing (out of curiosity… it was Long!!! > 4HR 50mn., but interesting)

It included this Screenshot from X with the caption:
MASS SELL-OFF OF PROPERTIES IN WASHINGTON, DC…
Hmmm
Never feel sorry for the filthy feds who lost their slush fund paychecks because DOGE cut off the fraud money train. Those feds were cruel THIEVES, tyrants and criminals who care nothing about America, who stood by and said nothing as we were all silenced, and who cheered on the lawfare against Trump and the J6 prisoners. Every single one of these pathetic feds deserves to lose their job, their house, their pension and should be required to GIVE BACK the money they stole from the taxpayers. And then they should be prosecuted and jailed, on top of that.
I@HealthRanger im in California and I’m still silence unfortunately. I’m a teacher and teaching in Texas didn’t work out because of the pay being so low. It’s sad. But it’s great collecting liberal tears!
@HealthRanger Absolutely rude of you. People were manipulated by the MSM, it took years to brainwash people into stagnant "energy vampires". It's super hard to try feed them anything logical, they are stuck in parroting what the TV told them. The people didn't become "energy vampires" by choice, it was done by the 1% over the decades. The people don't even know that they are "energy vampires", they think their rudeness, crying, mocking, anger and constant whining are absolutely normal. You need just as powerful weapon to reverse them back into productive people. But what you're doing here is divide and provoke against the victims of insidious brainwashing. You have become who you hate: a vampire. You are the tool of the 1% to manipulate people through alternative media. They came here in trust to avoid MSM brainwashing.
Happy Valentine's Day to all the ladies. What happened to me on Valentine's Day is that my dog caught a pretty big rabbit, and he rolled it in mud, completely covering it, and then he ate all of it except the head, and he deposited the head right by my desk chair, so when I went to my desk this morning, it looked like my dog had given me a chocolate rabbit head. But it wasn't chocolate. It was a mud-covered DEAD rabbit head. Not exactly a great Valentine's Day gift, but that's what I got.
@HealthRanger Good grief.
@HealthRanger I wonder what his plans are for Easter. Good Boy!
Before the election, I publicly stated that RFK Jr. was the strongest reason to vote for Trump, and that he would be the single most important champion of the Trump administration. However, in light of the stunning achievements that are now being demonstrated by Bondi, Homan, the DOGE team and Trump himself, I have to admit, they're ALL KICKING ASS beyond anything I could have hoped for. This is truly an amazing time to be alive, and we are blessed with this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to rescue this republic and end Democrat tyranny forever. The entire system of fraud, slush money, vote rigging, etc., (USAID, NED, etc) must be ended. When you end the fraud, you end the Democrats, because they relied entirely on fraud and money laundering for their very existence. We are watching extraordinary history unfolding in real time, and I've never been more excited to be an American!
@HealthRanger I agree but doubt any of those criminals will be prosecuted much less punished.
@HealthRanger
and you didn't even vote for them...
I voted for Trump, because despite his weaknesses... nobody is perfect.
Trump is not perfect, but 1000X better than any democrat.
We need better people in govt, and people need to step up like Tulsi, Shiva, Vivek, and RFK did. None are perfect. all have serious flaws... everyone has serious flaws... myself too.
But after stepping up, and trying to work as a team with imperfect people... sometimes something good can come out of it.
I am getting tired of Stew Peters isolating himself by focusing on one issue. Stew has a lot to offer, but his attacks against Alex Jones are unwarranted and hurting more than helping.
Alex Jones takes a more inclusive approach to everyone on our side, and acknowledges his own weaknesses... and acknowledges Trump has weaknesses.. and then supports Trump ... despite his weaknesses.
Stew takes that as Alex Jones being a Zionist.
It's not that simple, and we can't get stuck.
I voted for Trump and very happy I did. It was the best choice at the time.
@HealthRanger Please consider expanding your point on identifying the abusive bad guys, "Democrats", and reference them in writing as often as possible as "Democrat/RINO's." Verbally too would be spot on each time. You would be making the point that it won't be long before Mitch McConnell, Mike Pence, Paul Ryan, Mitt Romney , etc., and their pet projects, conflicts of interests, money making insider trading and more will be discovered by DOGE, Alternative Media and now AI data analysis of the ever expanding public data. THE BATTLE RAGES ON AS WE TRY TO RAISE THE REPUBLIC FROM THE DEAD. July 4, 2026, 250 years old and freemen once again may be victoroius over the number one world power. Wouldn't that be an event to survive and thrive through!
It's time to start ARRESTING treasonous judges in America
https://www.brighteon.com/30a06ea2-56a8-4aa4-9b6f-1627ad08a4b9
@Brighteon Emergency Powers-put them on a tether, house arrest, no internet use-bar them from the court house, and use the military courts for charges of treason and violation of their oath of office. Then delay their court hearings for four years or more as you go through discovery. Call it LAWFARE- PATRIOT STYLE
Understand that over the last several years, all AI systems have been trained on “common crawl” internet content which was heavily slanted by USAID money, which we now know funded nearly 4,300 media outlets and paid them to produce CIA-contrived narratives that were pro-vaccine, anti-Trump, anti-family, anti-America, pro-pharma, pro-virology, pro-Ukraine, anti-Russia, anti-China, anti-crypto, climate change lunacy, etc. This effort was combined with massive, coordinated censorship of alternative media (like Natural News and InfoWars) which dared to report the truth on all these things, including covid jabs, bioweapons, etc. The net result of USAID is that literally every mainstream AI engine today – Google, Anthropic, OpenAI, Meta, Microsoft, etc. -- is heavily slanted toward the radical leftist, globalist worldview. As far as I know, we have built literally the only AI engine in the world that CORRECTS these narratives because it’s trained on reality-based information. It will be available at Brighteon AI on March 1st and it’s free and open source. It’s the only AI engine that gets the answers correct on climate, gender, biology, U.S. history, government psyops, natural medicine, covid jabs and much more. It beats Google, OpenAI, Meta and all of them. Now you know why the censorship was coordinated with USAID media slush funds. It was all about shaping the content being scraped for AI training and preventing AI from repeating the truth about anything the CIA wants to hide
This Is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!

Beautiful! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
t.me@HealthRanger So why are ya going headlong for AI? It's like I said, AI is up to no good.
@HealthRanger @Thyme1967
In short..... AI is actually very powerful for progress .. if it can be put in the right hands.
It's like saying cars are bad because they can cause car accidents, or because someone drove one through a parade.
or guns are bad because of school shootings....
see... just tools
How is it that gold keeps going up but silver is going DOWN????
This sh*t is so rigged.
People like me who bought too early (and bought 'collectible coins') got f*cked.
For all of you Christian pod-casters who push buying gold & silver why don't you 'suggest' to people to stick with regular coins or bars?
I lost soooo much because I didn't have a clue. I just bought what looked pretty not realizing when you SELL, the dealer doesn't give a crap. He's going to offer BELOW spot price by weight. The only exception seems to be U.S. Lady Liberty coins.
It's really bad because people like me who have very little money to begin with cannot afford to take a loss. I bought most of my stuff when the silver market was high, so now that I keep having to sell to survive I'm losing so much (e.g. bought at $45 for a 1 oz decorative round but if I sell I'll be lucky to get $28 oz. Another example- bought a 2 oz collectible Skull in wooden box for $75.00 but the dealer doesn't even want it because it's not a coin, so he'll offer $50 if I'm lucky).
The other problem was I bought way too early. Every day all I would hear is "the collapse is imminent' from every pod-caster and 'financial expert', but month by month nothing happened, so now I've already sold most of what I had (at a loss) just to survive.
When this collapse ever comes (IF IT EVER DOES) all the prep work I did meant NOTHING. I have almost nothing left. I'll be in with all the people who did not prepare at all.
@OceanBlue Try and not look at what you paid and what you lost. That is just going to keep you upset. Gold and silver are what they are no matter in what form they come in. And even if you had bought coins or bars, if you have to sell them (which we all will eventually have to do), you wouldn't have any more than you would if you had never bought anything. What I am saying is you would find other ways to survive had you never bought any gold or silver in the first place. And I agree. It sure taught me a lesson in buying a ton of "prepping" stuff that I will probably never use all because I listened to those who actually BENEFITED and PROFITED from pushing that fear. Live and learn unfortunately but we will be smarter next time.
@OceanBlue All markets are rigged and their are no good investments out there in this environment. The problem is not the gold and silver you own. Keep working on the problem and try and find the right buyer if you have to sell. Best Wishes.
@OceanBlue The way I see it, it's ok to have a small amount of gold and silver in case of a real catastrophe. A person with 10 coins of precious metals might be able to exchange it for food and could survive a bit longer then a person with zero coins.
Collectibles are a scam IMO, in Canada for 1 oz of 99.99 gold coin = 4799$, the price for the metal is something like 4065.50CAD (way to expensive) and 733.4 CAD is lost for the shitty work of art of the collectible.
Look at these prices, it's a criminal enterprise.

www.mint.caIf you are planning on watching the Superbowl, your priorities are sadly distorted and you are wasting your life away while the most exciting REAL WORLD events are unfolding by the hour all around you. Stop wasting time following orchestrated, scripted fake sports and fake celebrities. Join Team Humanity and fight for freedom in the real world instead of watching mindless entertainment on a giant screen. No apologies for saying this. Get active in the real world. It's far more interesting.
@HealthRanger you're ridiculous. Every needs a break from the insanity. Might do you good Mikey
I'm not watching it -- but the "real world events" aren't very real either! LOL
Hmmm.... Personally, I don't have any interest in watching the Superbowl or other pro sports (except motorcycle road racing ). However, I've dozens of very aware friends who really enjoy unplugging for a few hours a week, watching football. Even Alex Jones unplugs periodically to keep from going off the rails. Are you saying Alex Jones is out of touch n not in this fight, Mike?? That'd be indefensible.
You unplug daily w/your farm n animals, Mike. Most people aren't so blessed as to have that option. Don't besmirch others for unplugging in their own way. It's snobby.
