It takes an awfully rare type of talent to get so many different things wrong about one, maybe two texts. I'm going to count off at least 10 things, actually 11 things that this man gets wrong and I would dare someone to go out and to find out if what he says is actually in the Bible. We're going to ask the question is, what he says is there a passage to go with what he's going to say? Lovi Elias, if you're listening to him, you are not being very wise when it comes to understanding this word. You're not being very discerning. This particular man has no real biblical credibility. Now, this is again the guy before recording what he said. He said that he was visited by Jesus with a gang of angels, one of whom stayed with him from the time of he was six. I think angels still with him now. I guess from the time that he met his wife, divorced his wife, started his band and so forth and got into secular music and so forth up till now that he also went to see the devil. Now, I don't know if the angel went with him to see and speak with the devil. I don't know how that conversation went. I don't know. We won't get into that, but we're going to look at something that he brings up about when it comes to tongues. And I'm going to look for someone and there are people out there who believe in speaking in tongues.   If a person gives a false prophecy and you believe in him, then something's wrong with you. When you are shown that, the problem is with him, but the problem is also with you.   You are doing so by one defending him and what is happening is if anyone calls him out or points it out, then we're wrong. Everyone's not perfect. No one's perfect, but if I call it out, I'm somehow in the wrong, though I didn't give a false prophecy, but he's in the right even though he did. That's where you might be venturing off into idolization. You are idolizing a person just because. And why? I don't know. Maybe because you're probably not safe.  It's hard to make those two match up and the more I want to get away from these kind of people, the more I just, it's like a detective trying to solve a murder mystery. He just, he can't get past it. And it should bother you guys as well. It really should. It really should. And before I, before I continue, let me go ahead and say thank you guys that are giving the super chats. Thank you very much. I appreciate that. Thank you, Erica. I appreciate that. So I want to go ahead and start off by playing what he's talking about. And he talks about a lot of different things. He talks about, remember, we played the clip of the guy and I'll probably show this some other time again in the future where he said that his uncle has this gift of disappearing. He can disappear. Bad guys come after him and he can disappear. All right. Now, interestingly enough though, the same story is kind of connected to this because his uncle starts speaking in tongues, takes him to a different level, a different dimension. That's kind of a point of what he's talking about being taken to a different dimension, different level. And so his uncle starts speaking in tongues and then he disappears. Yeah. Yeah. Spoken in tongues and it's gone. If I, of all the spiritual gifts that there could be, if I could get that gift, first of all, if I had that gift, I would abuse it. I would abuse it. Thankfully, there is no such gift. But let Lovie tell us it is a gift. But I want to listen to what he's saying. And then we're going to point out at least, at least 11 erroneous things that he says in regards to this issue of tongues. There are dimensions. The problem is you, you, you have not everything is you pray out of fear. You don't pray out of solutions. Now, I won't talk about the issue about praying out of fear and praying out of solutions that that could be subjective. But when he says they are, there are dimensions, there are levels of intimacy. So my question, thank you. Thank you, Canon. Did I say that right? Canon. Yeah. Sorry. I won't, and I'm trying not to get into a point, to a particular point that I want to hold off on. No, I, you know, I can't, I can't. Why is it that if, if tongues are so important, if speaking in tongues are so important and it takes you to a level, a new dimension, a higher level of intimacy, why weren't we told this? Can, can someone point out to me if you, now there's going to be someone that disagrees. There, there just is. Matter of fact, there's, there's at least one dislike already. So if someone can tell me you who gave the the dislike, by the way, they're, that, that when I start the life of your month, there's a dislike before I even utter a word, but that's fine. Par for the course. But can someone tell me anywhere in scripture where speaking in tongues is told of us or to us that, that it brings about a higher level of intimacy, a new dimension. How come, how come Paul, nor Peter, nor James, nor John, nor even Jesus ever tells us this, this, this great secret, the key to being a, a more spiritual Christian, we all want to be spiritual. As a matter of fact, Paul says, since you guys are zealous for these spiritual things, I get it. You guys are zealous for this higher dimension in the spirit. Why don't we ever hear that? Can someone tell me where that's found? I would love to. And if I happen to miss it, moderators, please let me know, alert me of this particular passage that I just have not seen. I may, I'm not saying it's not there. It's just that I have not seen it. I've got four eyes, two of mine and two manufactured and they don't all work together the right way sometimes, maybe that's maybe what it is. And so maybe I've just missed. So if you guys see it, you moderators catch someone saying it, let me know, alert me to it. So I can go in and add that to my collection of words not found in the Bible. You pray out of fear. You don't pray out of solutions. Max is 16, 17 minutes to come alive. And this sign shall follow them that believe in my name. They shall cast out devils. They shall speak in other tongues dimension, because every tongue you speak is a level of intimacy with God. And so there he repeats it again, a level of intimacy. Every, every time you speak in tongues, there's a level of intimacy with God. The question I want to ask is, is there anyone that can tell us where this comes from? Now I know in terms of man, but, but I need to know in the scriptures where this comes from. Now he brings up Mark 16. Let's, let's just go to Mark 16. It's their, it's their favorite passage. So let's go to it. So then these signs will accompany these signs will, and we cover this virtually all the time, but these signs will accompany those who have believed. Now I am one of the ones who do not believe the longer ending of Mark is found was in the original manuscript, which is why we don't find it in the earliest and the best attest to manuscript. But that's fine. That's fine. Let's say you do. I still believe that whoever this notation still refers to the apostles. Why? Because the person who wrote it, certainly didn't do these things. The person who wrote it was likely a believer, or at least profess to be a believer who didn't write these things. The apostles did though, the apostles, we saw them do these things. Remember, says the key word to focus in on is will, will. So they're trying to say that these are the signs that will follow and we will, if they mean it to mean all of us who are believers and all of us are believers who we will do this. We will cast out demons and we will speak with new tongues. I covered this before that the phrase that's used, there are two words in the Greek that's used. And so we're not talking about different gifts. People are going to say there's a gift of tongues and they're speaking in tongues. There's a public tongues and a private tongues. The problem is every time we see it, these same two words are there, which is la leo, which is to speak or speaking or some, some derivative of it, and glossize, which is languages. So you cannot say that, in this case, in this case, look here on the right side, it's glossize, the word for, for languages, and lelusus, which is speaking, they will speak. You cannot say that la leo and then glossize means speaking tongues here. And then when it says it over here, that it means praying tongues. When it says over here, it's a public tongues. Then when it says over here, it's a private tongues. No, it's not changing the meaning. You're changing the meaning if you come up with that. And so you're going to have to tell us where you get even the right scripturally to say there's a difference. I know where you first heard it from. You heard it from a Pentecostal preacher, charismatic preacher who did not study to say this because someone asked him, someone asked questions and they couldn't back up what they're saying. He says, no, no, no, no, what it is is there's a gift of tongues and then there's a, there's a speaking in tongues, two different things. Well, where? Whereas the scripture says there's two different things. We don't see that anywhere. We don't. As a matter of fact, if it's something that's not a gift, but people do it, why don't, why doesn't Paul or anyone else tell us that it's something other than a spiritual gift? Paul tells us when he's speaking about tongues that these are spiritual gifts, but then you say they're not a spiritual gift. Okay. But anyway, back to the passage, verse 17, they will, they will speak with tongues. They will, they will pick up, pick up serpents.  Still haven't seen you guys lay hands on the sick. Now I've heard you say that you laid hands on the sick and the person actually did recover, but we have no proof. And it's not that you have to show us proof, but the fact of the matter is the proof should be evident. The only purpose, the only reason for these particular signs is that there should be absolutely some sort of proof somewhere. Now we've got someone who I can't recall this person ever saying anything positive about what I've said, which is fine, which is fine, but that's okay though. You're the right person for this conversation. Let's look at white men can't jump. He says, uh, wrong, Corey. Look at the context of the use of the word whoever in that verse. It is clear it was not just the apostles. Okay, fine. So let's go back to the passage and let's look and see that these signs will, well, well, well, wait a minute. Let's put on the screen. Wait a minute. Hmm. Can someone tell me where the whoever is? Okay. Now I'm, I'm, I'm sorry, white men can't jump, but if you don't mind, I'm going to look at the actual language. If you don't mind. So I'm looking for the word whoever. Let's see. Uh, let's start here. Simea day toys, uh, pistol session. These are the, those who believe. Now the word whoever, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry to those, but the word whoever now is, is pointing to a specific group of people. So I would say this, if you're going to correct me, correct me properly. You said focus on the word whoever, the word whoever is not there. It's, it's, it's a specifier, uh, toys referring to a specific people, a specific those. Are you with me? But I get it. You want me to be wrong? Fine. I, I haven't probably been wrong. Point out where I'm wrong and do so properly. But again, you're going to want to fall for this stuff. You're going to want to listen to this guy. That's fine. Do so at your own peril. And when we, and when we come and show you how wrong and off you are, take it up with God when he deals with you. You, you, I'm still wrong, but you're not, well, this is what's funny. Wrong. I'm driving. Well, if you're driving, why don't you listen? Why don't you, why don't you stop breaking the law then if you're driving? If you're so busy, this, this is the foolishness of these people. If you're so busy, what are you doing looking at your, at your, your screen and texting while driving? Well, if you have the ability to stop and, and, and correct me in text, then you must have the ability to look it up. And oh, by the way, whether you're driving or not, fine. It's on the screen. Oh, okay. Look, look, now I'm breaking, I'm breaking up on your end. Excuse me. I'm going through a tunnel. I can't, what, what'd you say? Okay. Alrighty. Listen, fine, fine, fine. You're not, you're not doing yourself any favors, friend. You're not doing, and I'm trying, I'll try to be interactive with you guys as much as possible. I have no problem with that, but you're not looking good. Now, your first excuse was you're, you're driving. You weren't driving so fast or so through traffic so much that you couldn't stop and text, but now I'm breaking up on you. Okay. Now I'm not breaking up on my end, breaking up. Yeah.  Stop talking and listen. Do that. Do that because it's not, it ain't looking good for you. Wasn't looking good for you. It's not looking good for you. Anyway, we're going to 1st Corinthians 14. We're going to it. We're going, we're going to a Christopher. We're going to it because our friend Lovie goes there. But these signs, if he's saying that you have to, that we all will, then we won't all just will do one thing or two things. We'll do all the things that he says that we will do. White men can't jump.  If you're going to tell them, if you're going to tell us, tell us that you did because you know what the Bible gave us proof. We know that someone was sick and got healed. How do we know? Cause the Bible says so. This guy was blind and then after he was healed, he was not blind. That's kind of how that works. Somebody was dead after they was touched by specifically Jesus got up and was not dead. This person had leprosy and then after he was healed, didn't have leprosy. All these different things. We just want, because I can't take your word. You guys aren't trustworthy. You know how I know you guys aren't trustworthy because you're not. We can't even trust you with handling the text of the scriptures. Let's get to the second thing that he says. It's a level. Don't just be. Oh, yeah. Holy ghost. Oh, by the way, by the way, by the way, before I go, Christopher, I know I'm not picking on you, but I'm just using you. Do you think Christopher or white men can't jump since you're driving and can't type? Do you think that there are levels that we access new dimensions that we access by, by speaking in tongues? And if so, where is that found in scripture? Where is that found in scripture? I just, I just want to know. So if you, if you guys can think, if you guys agree with what he's saying, if I disagree with what he's saying and you guys agree, please give me a scripture. Don't just say you're wrong, Corey. Wrong, wrong disagree. No, no, I want you to give me scriptures. And I, you know what, sister? She says, I experience spirit spouses and it is not. Okay. So let me ask you a question. Let me ask you a question, sweetheart. I'm not trying to pick on you. I really am not. I'm really not. I happened to notice at some point when I was going through some of the comments and I saw you put a lot of comments on there. Is it possible that you're wrong? There's this thing called psychosom, is it psychosomosis psychosomatic where mentally you can cause yourself to feel things that really aren't there physically, but it feels that way. It's what we would call back and they almost like kind of like a spiritual hypochondriac where the person feels like they're always sick. I got this. I got that.  Listen, it just is. The mind is a powerful thing. Or sometimes it's not powerful. Maybe it's not, it's not powerful. Maybe what it is is sometimes it's just weak and we think things we see. We're like a little kid in, in what's that show? The sixth sense. I see dead people. Sometimes we see signs that aren't there. You say you don't imagine things, but sweetheart, I can promise you this. Everyone else that does imagine things don't think they imagine things until it was found out. Until they imagine things in public and people say, no, that's not, that's not what happened. I'm not saying you do or you don't, but if you're going to say that there's a such thing as spirit spouses, give me a passage. I'm not going to take your word for it over the Bible. There is no such thing as spirit spouses. These things that we're talking about, these spirit spouses, or these things such as these, these new fangled tongues, nobody in the history of Christianity, not that they're gospel, but even the people who are closest, the polycarps, who is a disciple of John. We didn't hear that. Justin Mars, who's a disciple of polycarp. The early, the disciples of the disciples, they never spoke about it. We don't, we don't, now they had writings also, but they never said these things. And so my question is this, my question is, how come no one else, until we get to America, to Western culture, 2000 years later, how come you guys are the only ones ever to experience these things? No one's ever talked about some sort of spirit, spirit spouse. And Latia, that might be the issue. It might not be, it might, it could be guilt, it could be, but there is no such thing as spirit spouses. There just, there just is not. And what can happen, what can, you're right. Airplanes aren't in the Bible, but do you know what we witness every day? I can go to the airport and literally get on one. I can see one. We all know it. It's not, it's, that is a concrete fact, not an abstract fact. We're talking about a concrete fact. For example, for example, this awesome black slightly used cold thermos is not in the Bible, but the mere fact that I'm touching it, there's water in it, godly water, because it's in my cold cup and you guys see it. Therefore, we know it's a fact. It's an absolute fact. However, when you say a spirit spouse, only people that go to certain churches have these spirit spouses. Why is that? You keep saying, yes, there is, but now we've got to take your word over the Bible. Do you see how, sweetheart, and you have a folks, do you all see how dangerous that is? The Lord came and told me that the Bible is wrong, that it was actually written, and the devil came and corrupted it, bound it up, and gave it to you guys. The Lord told me that. Would you all believe me if I said that? Delayne, thank you. Saturn, thank you so much. I appreciate the super chat. Would you all believe me if I said that? No, you wouldn't. Matter of fact, you would laugh. You should laugh now. You should call me a heretic and scorn me till I'm no more around. I can't just say something, and then that be the truth. No, that's not how it goes. If you have children. Again, psychosomatic, sweetheart. The point is, if the word says this, and you say otherwise, which one do we go for? Let's go back to this. I didn't mean to get off that, but you brought it, and I really didn't want to address it without actually having to type it and write this stuff out. Anyway, let's go back to our good friend who has no understanding of the Bible. Yeah, our cake shop. That's my question, too. People ask some pretty good questions.  It's more than that. Every time there is trouble, you can change the law. Doggone, I got to answer the question. Rachel, and I love you, sweetheart. I love you to death, sweetheart, but she says the Bible says that there are no rules. I love you to death, sweetheart, but she says the Bible says that there aren't spirit spouses. So because it doesn't say that there aren't, then that means that fallacy means that there are. The Bible doesn't say that there aren't Easter bunnies, so therefore there must be Easter bunnies. I see them all the time. The Bible doesn't say that smurfs aren't real, so therefore smurfs might be. I saw the movie. That's not how that works. That's just not how that works. Again, the Bible equips us with all the things that we need to know to walk through this world, but it doesn't tell us that. The Bible doesn't tell us the things that are coming out. So God neglected to tell us what lovia lies, and these other people have the foresight, the insight to know. It puts God here and them up there. No, but it's not possible. It's not possible, because what it means is that what it does is impunes God's one His love for us to not tell us something so sinister that could happen to us. We're told about... Let me ask you guys a question. I didn't want to get on this. I did not want to... Let me drink my coffee. And I'm back in my cold cup. I didn't want to get on that. I did not want to get on this. Where's that question? Where's that statement at? Where's the statement at? Everything's moving too quickly. Have you ever wondered, though, why there's not a lot of discussion? Thank you, Michael, for the super chat. Have you ever wondered, guys, why there's not a lot of discussion about demons in the Bible? There are the different ologies, the soteriology, the Hormatiology, the ecclesiologies, all these ologies, the studies of. When you go into... Now, you can go into Christology, a lot of information on that. You can go into theology proper, a lot of information on that. When you go into demonology, which is a study of demons, you know what you're going to find? That's one of the studies that has some of the least amount of references in the Bible. We just don't... We do not have a lot of biblical references about demons. So what people do? They make it up. They guess. They figure things out. Now, some of those folks are legitimate. Some of these people that make up these things, they might be using their mind. I think this. I think that. I feel this way. I feel that way. What have you? And then now we're to the point to where we're going to call everything a demon. There are some people who are just... Now, they might be saved.   As a matter of fact, case we've forgotten and case we've forgotten, we can go and ask our good friend, our good friend at Transformation Church in Tulsa, if saved people can either say or be stupid.  Tweet that.  Yes, you can. Yes, you can. Now, they're either saved and they're just, just mind is off or they're wicked. Because when you start making up stuff that aren't, that isn't in the Bible, then you have no biblical legacy. As a matter of fact, listen, if you're trying to create a doctrine that's not in the Bible, that is the very definition of unbiblical, un or not biblical. It's not in the Bible. You can't just make it up and just say, well, the Bible doesn't say so. So it could be. But if we're talking about things that we know of, like my awesome Colt Sturm is there, well, that's there. We know we see it. Right? It's like saying the cowboy's losing. We know that. That's, that's, I had to go there, guys. Had to go. Things that we know for a fact. Yeah, the Bible doesn't talk about, about the state of Texas. It doesn't talk about the state of Indiana or Florida or California, but we know they're there. The Bible doesn't talk about Mars, didn't talk about the moon, but we know it's there. The Bible didn't talk about the space shuttles. The Bible didn't talk about Tesla. The Bible didn't talk about the internet, but those are things that we have witnessed that we see and there's no need for it. The Bible gives us all we need, equips us for what we need for our spiritual walk. And if the Bible has any thought of us engaging demons, he would tell us how to and what to look out for and what they do. Amen. Flatbush 21. Thank you for the Super Chat as well. We don't, listen, we don't have to invent things just because someone somewhere said it who did not use the Bible, the demon of bad breath. Yeah, there's a demon for everything. So let's get back to our good friend, Lovie. Hello. From your regular prayers, Father, I love you. You pray regularly. Even Paul said, I will pray first with my spirit, then pray with my understanding. Did you already say it? I will pray first with my spirit, then I will pray with my understanding. I will pray first with my spirit, then I will pray with my understanding. Let me, let's play it again. I want y'all to hear what he says. I will, I will sing first. I love you. You pray regularly. Even Paul said, I will pray first with my spirit, then pray with my understanding. I will pray, I will, I will sing first with my spirit then with my understanding. Notice how I said that I will pray first with my spirit, then pray with my understanding. I will sing first with my spirit, then no he doesn't say that. How do I know so? Because we happen to have the Bible. You know the cool part about this, we actually happen to have the Bible to where we can judge what he's saying. So let's go there. Let's go to 1 Corinthians 14. We'll get back to the earlier part of 1st Corinthians 14 just a little bit, but let's go to 1st Corinthians 14. He says, therefore, let one who speaks in a tongue pray that he be interpret. What's the word interpret means? It means to give understanding, to explain. Now Paul's whole point in talking about spiritual gifts is that there be understanding that we're not ignorant. Well, is there anyone that disagrees that Paul is not fleshing out this issue of doing things in spiritual gifts without understanding that? He starts off now concerning spiritual gifts. I do not want you to be ignorant. I don't want you to be unknowing. And so he gets to hear 1st Corinthians 14 and he says, therefore, the one who prays or speaks in a tongue pray that he may interpret, that he have explanation, understanding. So now, hopefully we're on the same plane, understanding what he's saying. So if that's what he says, for if I pray in a tongue, now he's speaking in unknown language that you folks don't know, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful. That's a problem. How do we know? Because the very next thing he says is, what's the solution or what then? What then in Greek is, this phrase is, ti un, which is what then? Well, how do I fix this? What then? When he says verse 15, he says, what is the outcome or in the Greek ti un, what is the outcome? What is this? What then? He says, I will pray in the spirit and I will pray with my mind. I will pray in the spirit. I will pray also with my mind. I will sing in the spirit. I will also sing with my mind. He didn't say pray in the spirit, then pray in your mind. No, I will, if I'm gonna pray in the spirit, I will pray with my mind. So what am I gonna do? Thank you, Brian Hall. If I pray in the spirit, I'm gonna pray with, understand the word for mine and understand the same. No A. So I'm gonna pray with, instead of just praying as you guys are speaking in this unknown language, by the way, by the way, if I pray in a tongue, look what he says. Thank you, Nick. I appreciate that. He says, verse 14, if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful. In other words, if I'm praying in a tongue, I don't know what I'm saying. Have no clue what I'm saying. So what is the solution? 15, I will pray with the spirit or in the spirit and I will pray with my mind also. So the solution is, is not to pray in tongues. He didn't bring back praying in tongues again. He says, now I'm gonna do so with understanding. Whenever I pray, pray with understanding. Whenever I sing, I'll sing with understanding. Whenever I speak, I will speak with understanding. That's the point. Whatever I'm gonna do, I'm going to do it with understanding. I need to know what I'm doing, not just for the hearers, because if they don't know what I'm doing, by the way, what I'm saying, they are barbarians. They are foreigners to me. They have no clue what I'm saying. And oh, by the way, I don't. I'm just speaking mysteries in the air. So off the bat, so far, he's got two things wrong. One, talk about praying in a new, praying in tongues brings a new level of intimacy or new dimensions. Is there anywhere in the Bible where it says that? Is there anywhere in the Bible where it says that we're supposed to pray first in the Spirit and then pray in understanding? Matter of fact, the prayer in the Spirit, that's the only found in this passage. So, is there anywhere where we can find those things? No, he's making it up. Let's continue. Your prayer of the Spirit must be more than your understanding. Why should... Can't get past that. Praying in the Spirit, third thing he's wrong on, or made up. Your praying in the Spirit must be more than your understanding.  What he just said. That's absolutely dumb. That's ignorant. That is antithetical to the Bible. Not scripturally supported. Your praying in the Spirit is more than your understanding. It's more valuable than your understanding. That's a higher level than the understanding. You're not supposed to understand it, really. Find the passage where you're not supposed to know what you're doing, or understand what you're doing. That's how you guys get off-kilter and doing things you don't know and out of control when the Spirit tells us that we're supposed to have self-control and understanding. And all you're getting, and all you're getting, get understanding, except when Lobby Eliza...  You know, I'm gonna say it. I'm sorry. I hate to be mean. I hate to be mean, but dawg on it. I was kind... You know how you pass judgment and you think to yourself, I don't want to go that far. I'm gonna go that far. He's not saved. He can't be. He can't be. He can't be saved for that long, as he says, and to also have claimed to have visited heaven and hell, the devil and Jesus, and all of his angel friends. And after all these years, he hadn't been saved a long time. I get... Well, I guess he has. He says since six. So, I guess 30 years, 20-something years. I don't know. And you haven't grown one of two things.  I don't think so. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. And sometimes, of course, you can't say the man's not saved. Well, dawg on, who can? At some point in time, you got to be able to look and say, by the way, Chow Yun, in fact, thank you for the American Gospel TV thing. I appreciate that. I saw that last night. Huh, what is this? Hey man, thank you so much.  I really do appreciate that. You said, but in church, I would rather speak five. There it is. Why? Because we want... I will know what I'm saying. I want others to know what I'm saying. Why? Because the point is to get the message out. Someone gave me a dislike. Tell me what you dislike about it. I'm not hurt, but I'd just like to know why. You dislike what I'm saying. Paula Simpson, thank you. Samson, thank you. I'm sorry. No, you're not. Corey, I'm not sorry. It's just one... It's a nice way of saying, I forget you. I don't care. I don't... I'm not sorry. I'm not sorry for the fact that this guy is a charlatan. He's a scam artist of the highest degree. I'm sorry at the fact that we've got too many people out there who don't get it or want to defend it. You people are just... You're just... If you're going to defend this person, I'm sorry about this. Now, I am... Now, I am sorry about what I'm getting ready to say. I really am sorry about what I'm getting ready to say because it hurts my heart, but if you're defending this guy, you are not a good Christian.  No, you're just not a good Christian. You're just not. You're... And I'm sorry I have to say that, but if you're going to defend heresy, if you're going to defend heresy, what does that say about you and your love of God and your love of His scriptures that are given to us by the Holy Spirit? What does that say about you? Oh, God, I was trying to be calm.  Got my... My blood pressure is not up. It's not. Although I'm drinking my coffee, I got to open it at the top.  Red new mind ministry. Thank you, my brother. He said, thank you. Thank you. Oh, man, I hope so. Matter of... So, now, what I want to... By the way, moderators, Lisa, Brian, you guys, I thought I saw someone else out here. Wait a second. Wait a second. Pause for a minute. You mean tell me I got two moderators here? I'm... Wait a second. I got to look around. I got to look around. Where's Rashaun at? It's the Saturday. Rashaun, where are you at? I'm sorry. My mind just stopped for a second. My mind just stopped for a... There's Rashaun right there. Okay, I see him. I see him. Okay, all right. But oh, there's Scott. Okay, cool. All right. All hands on deck. We got more. We got more than two. We got four. Hey, man. Because sometimes it takes four or more to handle some of you people.  Yeah, so anyway, if there's someone that disagrees, please help me to see the disagreement. I want to see it. I want to see it. I need to see it because I want to address it.  It's getting worse and it's getting worse and it's getting worse and it's like... Now, listen. Well, I'm going to tell you why you're not a moderator. Senior Conrad. I'll tell you why you're not a moderator. The same reason, the same reason you're not a moderator is the same reason why Proverb 17 ain't a moderator. Y'all don't hurt. You hurt somebody's feeling. I love you to death. Listen, you can almost say no wrong. You and Proverb 17 can almost say no wrong. Y'all don't hurt somebody. I told y'all I went and looked at Proverb 17. 1711. It's like, oh, that's it. That's it. Yeah, plus you got too much here. Plus you got too much here. Yeah, but what? Love, Proverb 1711. And that Proverb 1711 passage, it fits. It fits. It used to be that. I don't know who was in the lead right now, ChestChamp. ChestChamp used to be in the lead of putting people in time out and blocking. I don't think so anymore. But if Proverbs was a moderator, it wouldn't be even close. Listen, it wouldn't be close. Half of y'all would be blocked right now. But that's my dude. That's my man. That's my man. U2KL. Anyway, back on topic. Back on topic. But this stuff is bad.  Now, I don't want to talk to you guys in your 20s and I certainly want to talk to you guys in your teens right now. And I don't want to talk to you guys in your 30s. I want to talk to the people that are 40, 50, 60, 70. We got some old folks. The average age of the people on my channel are far older than the average age of a lot of people's channels. They really are. So, no, I'm not handing out a wrenches, Adrian. But let me ask you guys a question. Only if you're in your 40s, 40 or an over, were we less tolerant or more tolerant when you guys were younger? Okay. Perfect. Were we more tolerant or less tolerant back in the day? We were less tolerant. Maybe it's just me. We were less tolerant of just foolishness. Now, we seem to have gotten along pretty well. We seemed much less, much less tolerant of this stuff. And you know what happened, though? Families were more intact. We didn't have kids, six-year-old kids, bringing guns to school, shooting kids, shooting other, shooting grown-ups. We didn't have this stuff. We were far less tolerant of stuff. We called it like it was. We called it like, wait a second. We called it like it was. We called it like it was. Nowadays, we, it's this, this, this Rodney King generation, can't we all just get along with Christianity? Can't we all get along with everybody else as a Christian?  I recall this is the good old days. Okay. When Trump said make America great again, first of all, it wasn't, it was not his slogan. He, Obama used the same slogan and Reagan used the slogan. It wasn't about so showing how far it goes back. It wasn't about any sort of social constructs. He said, how we were, how we look at things. We were just better as people. America was a beacon and we didn't take no crap, but, but I want y'all to understand something. Me, I could get on my bike and usually it, first of all, it was hard to find one kid. I'm not off topic. I want y'all to hear this. It was hard to find one kid on a bike unless he was going home. Usually, especially during the summer, during the days, you'll find three, four, five kids on the bike. You know where all the kids were just because it'd be like four or five bikes piled up in front of somebody's house or that's where all the neighborhood kids are. We'd go somewhere if we do something. First of all, and we can go forever. We can, as long as we got back home in time, if we got thirsty, what do we do? Pull up beside somebody's house. They had a faucet on the side of the house and we drink their water. Sometimes, most cases we knock on door and ask, sometimes they'd go ahead and let us do it, right? Now, you wouldn't do it nowadays. Do they even have faucets on the side of houses anymore? Anyway, if you did wrong, if you messed up, somebody who either liked you or didn't like you, knew you or didn't know you, is going to get on your behind.  We cared more. We cared more. We cared enough to tell you that you're wrong. We cared enough to tell you that you're wrong.  I'm sorry. Save that for somebody. You know what I'm doing? I'll tell you what. For the rest of this time today, I'm the mean Christian today. I'm going to be mean. I'm that old lady. Now, we didn't have Karen's like we had then. I understand the spirit of Karen though. I understand the spirit of Karen.  We had nosy folks too.   We don't need you over here. We had folks that actually cared. We don't have that in the body anymore. Any and everything goes. And the fact of the matter is the Bible is not enough for you. The solution. Here's how I know the Bible is not enough for you, because the solution to what ails you isn't enough. If the word of God being the solution isn't enough for you, then God's not enough for you. You don't care. You just want things. You just want things.  Much less a horrible Christian.  And I'm waiting for the defenders. This is what I get. Yeah, I'm waiting for the defenders of Lovialias and these other guys to come out. Because it's smart Christian day. It's smart Christians channel is now the mean Christian channel. Tough love channel. Rough channel. It's hard over here. Yeah, it's hard out there for a weak Christian. And that's what we get. We have a lot of weak Christian who just any time when someone and hopefully young ladies still in the in the chat.  They run at them, block them, avoid them. But to say they got the power to go in and cast demon out, they're liars. So the iron sharpens iron channel. Yeah. And then it's soft over here, babies. And so we're going to tell you like it is. Now, if you if you want to correct us and give us the right the right answer, no problem. Show us in scripture, which is what this guy, Lovie, does not do. Should I pray a language that is not better? So now he's saying that praying in tongues is better. Praying in the language, it's better. The Bible doesn't say that. As a matter of fact, let's go back to 1 Corinthians 14. Let's go back to 1 Corinthians 14. Let's go. I think it's around, what's around 10? I hadn't planned one of these particular passages, but where is this at? Okay, here it is. Here it is. Verse five. Now, I wish that you all spoke in language, but even more that but even more that you would prophesy. We covered this in the Greek and said that is where Melinda handed the prophet to it, which means in order that you would prophesy or give revelation. But then he says, but even more that you would prophesy and greater is the one who gives these revelation, his prophecy than the one who speaks in language, unless he interprets so that the church may receive edifying. Now, if anything, you'd make the case that the regular speaking, the revelation is better than tongues. But he equates it to, he says, unless the person brings explanation so that the church may receive edifying. There are only even planes, but to say that these tongues, that's what they do. They said that these tongues are better. That is lie, erroneous statement number four. But again, he has a gift for saying erroneous things. That will not produce better results. Yet there is a language that is more superior. Why shouldn't I use my spirit? For the spirit helps our infamities. Help us to pray things we don't even know how to. Every time you. So now he's going to Romans 8 26. He equates, he equates this as praying in tongues. The spirit, these groanings or the spirit prays is the same as praying in tongues or speaking in tongues. Let's go to Romans 8 26, please. Romans 8 26 says, in the same way, the spirit also helps our weaknesses. For we do not know how to pray as we should, but the spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. This word for groanings is synagogues, which is inward sighings. It's an inward sighing, or as we say groanings, too deep for words. In other words, they're not uttered.  So this couldn't be tongues. And so when someone says or equates, when anyone, anytime someone equates this with tongues, Romans 8 26, stop listening to them. This isn't hard to figure out. This clearly is not tongues. Again, there's only a few times where the word tongues are brought up. Mark 16, which again many people question as to whether that was in the original or not, obviously acts too. And then 1 Corinthians 14. I asked this question before and I'll ask it again. How many times, how many books of the Bible, how many books of the Bible do we actually witness someone speaking in languages, speaking in tongues? How many, how many books in the Bible do we actually see this? And I would love for the people who disagreed with me to tell me why. Tell me where. Where in the Bible do we see instances of someone, what books do we see someone speaking in tongues? One book. One book only. One book only. Don't go on this. Listen, this is why you guys are smart Christians. And then dog at least even gives an axe. That's the only place. The only place that we see, Spurskula, did you change your, did you change your, what do you call it in the little picture? The icon or the avatar, what do you call it? I think you changed it. I get used to seeing some of you guys' names or pictures and then you change it. Stop that. No, I'm kidding. I'm kidding. One place. So you would think that the one place that you would see it, you would actually look to there to see what it actually means. If you think Mark 16 is speaking for all of us about tongues, okay, fine. And we know 1 Corinthians 16 is 14 and 12 is describing tongues, but we only see it applied in one place. That's an axe. How about we go there and see what it is? And don't come back and say, well, it's talking about a different type of tongues. No, because the word laleo and glossis is always used when it's talking about these tongues. Whether it be in Mark 16, axe or in 1 Corinthians 12 and 14. It's the only place. And so always use those two words. So this guy makes this up in Romans 826 and says that this is the Holy Spirit speaking tongues for us. And it's a higher dimension, a new level. No, it's not. No, it's not. Listen, let me just, can I give you all some good advice? Can I give you all some good advice? And your parents probably gave you this too.  He says, is that not good wisdom right there?   Yeah, you're right. You're right. You'll jump off that same bridge with him. Why?  My mama told me one time, she says, she said, she said, if, if I said, you know how you say, so-and-so does it, so-and-so mothers let him do it. Am I the mother? If he did it when you do it, I'm gonna say, yeah, you do it. Yeah, you do it. I know you would.  She was hot. She was hot that day because I had the audacity. You know how your parents ask your question and they don't want you to answer, but you get too smart, too big for your britches and you respond back? I'll never forget my brother. My mother said, close that door. You think I'm trying to heat up that whole outside? My brother said, why not? Why bow? He got hit. He never said that again. Well, he didn't say it out loud again. He never said that again. Can I pray in tongues in my head or do I have to speak? 1689, I know that wasn't a serious, I know you're playing with that question. I know you're playing with that question. Let's go back to the good Dr. Prophet. Wow. Okay, another one. Number six. Do we ever see anywhere where tongues are hard to get what you need? No, tongues are not to get what you need. Tongues are not to make you better in the spirit. Tongues are not to take you in a higher dimension. Tongues do not bring a higher level of intimacy. Tongues, we don't speak in tongues first and then get an understanding. No, that's not how it works. How bad are you to get this many things wrong so quickly? Are we halfway through what he's saying or the clip that I'm playing? Remember, I've cut some things off. This is the whole thing. This is the very same time where the man is in his tight leather paisley plaid, whatever fancy he's got on. This is the same conversation he's had where he says that his uncle disappeared after speaking in tongues. And I've got to say this. The people are so good. No, you guys are horrible Christians. You guys are bad readers. I don't think you guys read. This is the problem. You make a mockery of the Word of God. You make a mockery of the church. You really do. This is so good. Awesome, brother. Amen. You are targeting things that you actually need.  God wants us to be in a place.  It goes to exactly the will of God because the will of God is a mystery. So if his will is a mystery, I need to pray also mysterious language. So the will of God is a mystery, which is hidden really to us. He's revealed his will for us. Now, has he revealed what he wants me to do at four o'clock today? No, not to my fat. But in terms of us as believers and for mankind, he's expressed his will. It's not a mystery, but then we're supposed to pray in this mysterious language. I'm still looking for you guys that are going to defend this guy. I'm still looking for you guys that want to defend this person, this uncircumcised Philistine. I'm still looking for you guys to defend this person. Where is that? Where is that at? Someone who's a defender of his? Tell me where it says that we are to pray. Tongues are called a mystery. Where in the Bible are tongues called a mysterious language? No. And that's the issue. 689, that's the issue. What we do know for a fact is a couple of things. After Paul covers this issue, this mis... Remember Paul is writing because there's a misuse of these tongues, this gift in the church. That's his point. He's rebuking a misuse. After this, after him rebuking them, do you know what we don't see again? We don't see this issue of tongues brought up again. And it's not like 1 Corinthians 14 is like, oh, it's at the very end. That's where John is. No. There are a lot of books written after 1 Corinthians 14. As a matter of fact, 2 Corinthians 14. Paul didn't bring it up again. None of the other apostles bring it up. The early church didn't speak about it. No, they didn't speak in tongues. They knew what it was for. They knew that it was a language to preach the gospel to other people who have not heard the gospel. That's the... Think about it. How does that not make sense to you guys who disagree? You got to spread the gospel and they don't speak a language that you speak. What would you use? Oh, the gift of speaking in tongues or languages. That he connects with. So by the time you speak natural language, your natural language are infused with the inspiration of the spirit. You come out of that even if it's a father in the name of Jesus. I shift this situation. Now you are transferring what you captured in the mysteries of the spirit. You didn't only use it for the future. Now you are using it for now. So he says, he says, hold on. I see it guys. He says, you are capturing. You're using what you captured in the spirit. You are using what you captured in the spirit. Do we take what we captured in the spirit and use it? Where is that found at? Where is that found at?  I don't see you. There's a difference between not seeing you and ignoring you. Someone just said something. And Mike, Mike, we had you on before. We had you on before and you defended him. Can I just be honest with you? Mike, you did a horrible job. Mike, you, as far as knowing the scriptures, you're not very good at it. I'm again, sorry. Not the smart Christian channel day. This is the mean Christian channel day. This is the hard Christian channel. It's a tough love.  I can remember what video was that that I brought you on. Absolutely horrible.  Let me just see if I find one, Mike. You're going to do a live video on your channel. Okay, fine. No, I'm not coming. I got something to do. Sorry. Okay, tongues are biblical. I didn't say tongues weren't biblical. Never said tongues weren't biblical. I just said your tongues have to be biblical. Big difference, Mike. I understand you're not very good with the scriptures. I understand. I think your life is going to be, it's going to be amazing. I think the world is going to love it.  Are you, that's all you said. I don't want to talk to you. I literally brought you on this channel. I literally brought you on this channel. I regretted it. I literally brought you on the channel. All right, so that's enough of Mike, guys. But now, here's my question. To take what you receive from the spirit, but if you're talking in tongues, how are you, are you taking? Are you receiving? Are you just giving something out? That's my question. If you are talking, how are you receiving? If you're speaking in tongues, how are you receiving? There is a greater place, children of God. I want you to lift your hands to God. Even if you have never spoken in tongues, listen, if you do what I'm telling you, you will speak. Amen.  And after going through all this, I want you to speak in tongues. The Bible literally says, not all speak in tongues. Not all. If you turn around and say that we all do, then you are contradicting the scriptures. The Bible has started contradicting itself. You are contradicting it. You are contradicting the scriptures or the spirit too by saying that we all will or can when the Bible says not all do, not all will. We're not all, not all are apostles, not all are prophets, not all have this gift or that gift. And so if you turn around and say that you do, then you are wrong. And you are misleading people.  This is tongues are a language. And if we're going to be biblical, let's be what the Bible says. Let's not make up stuff. This is why I say that many of these people are not saved. Paul tells us to desire the pure word or desire the pure milk of the word. Many people don't desire that. They want something different. It's not enough for me. I need more. No, you don't need more. You need Jesus. You need Jesus. And so this lie that you can all speak in tongues when he says all don't speak in tongues, which would tell you if 1 Corinthians, if Mark 16 meant that all of us would do something, it would be a contradiction because it literally says let's go, you know, let's just go to it. I don't want to just say this. Someone says, no, we can. Let me put that the same phraseology up there. Is it 20 or it's 20, 28, I believe, 28. Let's find it. 1 Corinthians chapter 12, 20, 29, 30. He says, not all. And now look how he starts it off. He says, may pantes, which is not all are apostles. May pantes, prophetite, not all are prophets. May pantes, the deskaloi, which is not all of teachers. May pantes, dunamis, not all can do stuff or do miracles. May pantes, carismata, not all do not have the gifts. And then it says that haves of healing. Here it is. May pantes, glosais, la lusin. Not all are speaking in tongues or languages are speaking. Not all, and I use those two words, glosais and la la, in this case, la lusin. So it's clear if you say that all do speak in these tongues, then he says not all do speak in tongues. That's a clear contradiction. And you are horrible as a Christian if you're trying to promote a contradiction that's not there. If you're teaching something that clearly goes with the scriptures and we're looking at the passage, and so what they do is they get to this passage and they say, well, no, he's not talking about speaking in tongues. We're not talking about, no, you're right, all of us don't speak in tongues, but some of us just have the gift of tongues. We're talking about praying in tongues. Praying in tongues and the gift of tongue, gift of tongue. The gift of tongues and speaking in tongues are different. Now, if that sounded confusing because it is, because that's what they say, gift of tongue, speaking in tongues are two different things. Have any of you heard that?  The gift of tongues and speaking in tongues are different. They'll say that what he's talking about is the gift of tongues. I mean, speaking in tongues, we all don't do that, but we all can have the gift of tongues, but he's literally talking about the gift of tongues. How do I know? He's not talking about, he's talking about the actual spiritual gift, because if we go all the way back up to chapter 12 verse one, what does he say? Now concerning spiritual gifts. So he's talking about spiritual gifts and then he names tongues, that's not a spiritual gift. That's not, no, that's different. This is speaking in tongues. Speaking in tongues is different than the gift of tongues, but he literally uses the word speaking in tongues as a gift. Yeah, but yeah, but you gotta understand this great. What it is is it's a public tongues and a private tongues. Okay. So for the private tongue, wise Paul asking you to interpret it. What does he bring it up? Where is his private tongue at? They make it up. They're just saying stuff just like, just like good old Lovie. Again, if you listen to Lovie, you are not, you are, I can say one thing for sure. If you listen to Lovie, if you follow him, you're not a smart Christian.  You want to have your ears tickled. You want someone just tell you something. As Richard Pryor said, tell me some one of those old lies, tell me stop thinking about the truth. And if you speak, your utterance will go to another dimension. I can hear a better amen. These people, they don't care. They do not care. Experience it yourself. You will know that Jesus is in you. You will know it. All right. Another lie, another only statement. You will know that Jesus is in you. So speaking in tongues is, is how we know that Jesus is in us? No, sir. I want you to pray sincerely with everything that is in you. Your prayer will be very simple, but sincere. Lord, I know there is another realm. Lord, you called us to speak your language, to speak mysteries. Is there a pastor that says, uh, that tongues is his language and that we're called to speak mysteries? No. What the point I'm trying to make is that there is no point to be made. That's all it is. There ain't no point. Yeah. That's about the best that you could say. No, he hadn't given one scripture yet. He hadn't given one scripture yet. Paul is writing them about this misuse of tongues. People are going to say though that no, he's talking about that there are tongues that are for the edification of the body for yourself and then these other types of tongues. But if that's the case, then where, where in 14 did he rebuked him for anything? There's only one thing that he's rebuking of. He's contrasting two different ways of doing it. One that benefits the body, one that only benefits yourself. That's the one where he says, no one knows what you're saying. He just speaking mysteries in the air.  You're speaking into the air. So, uh, in conclusion, guys, in conclusion, what is, what is the language of angels? We don't know. There is none that, that we know. We have never, ever heard, uh, the language of angels in 1st Corinthians 13. Paul says that if I have, if I speak in the tongues of men or of angels and so people say, well, that must mean there's an angelic language, a couple of things. One, we don't know what angels, how they communicate, what they sound like when they speak. Do they speak audibly to each other? Because the question is, if they're speaking each other, why do they need to speak audibly? I don't know. Do they have a voice box, a larynx, a trachea? Do they have any of those things? Do they have a deep sounding voice? Is there, is, is it a tenor, a soprano? Is it melodic? Is it sound like cymbals? No. Every time that that angel speaks to a man on the planet, he speaks to that man how? In the language that he or she understands. And when the person speaks back to the angel, how do they speak? In the exact same language they understand. We don't have one example, not one in the Bible, where someone speaks in an unknown angelic heavenly language. No, no example whatsoever. We have no example of an angel speaking to us in a language in a way other than what, what we know as the language that people hear. And what he was saying was, I'm not, I'm not sure what you're asking, DeAngelo. Could Paul had been saying if he was an actual angel? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, what he was saying? Let's go to it. Let's, let's pull the passage up. First Corinthians 13. He says, if I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have, have love, I have become a noisy gong or clingsome. If I have a gift of prophecy and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned, but do not have love, it profits me nothing. Paul didn't do these things. Paul was speaking just hypothetically and hypothetically. How do I know so? Well, because look what he says in verse two, if I have to get the prophecy and know all mysteries and all knowledge, did Paul have all, know all mysteries and all knowledge? Have all knowledge? No, he did not. Did Paul have all faith so as to remove mountains? First of all, no one in the Bible ever removed a mountain. Number two, number three, or next, Paul didn't have enough faith to remove the thorn of flesh or the thorn that was in his flesh, whatever it was, Paul did not have all faith. Paul struggled at times. Paul tells us that. Third, verse three, if I give all my possessions away to feed the poor, did Paul do that? No, Paul did not do that. If I surrender my body to be burned, Paul didn't do that either. What Paul is speaking, he's giving hypothetically. If this, if that, if that, the point is, but I don't have love, if I could, if I can fly to the moon and back, but don't have love, his point is whatever we're doing, we're doing in love. And in that regard, when we speak in these or use these gifts, it's for the love of others, not for the love of yourself. So that's, that's the point. Sometimes we look for something mysterious like lovy. We look for things or we say things that are just not biblical. Do you think that sign language being used in the church is a form of interpretation also? Well, yeah, well, it's not interpreting the gift of tongues. Interpretation is just explaining. That's, that's, that's what the word means. The word means explanation, to give an explanation of understanding. And so someone's at the right and they are giving a sign as to what's being said. They're just giving an explanation, but that's not, not to be taken as the spiritual gift of it, but it certainly is helpful for people who don't have, for the hearing impaired. So let me address this, this last point as we get ready guys, is address this verse, verse two, for one who speaks in an unknown tongue does not speak to people, but to God for no one understands, understands him or catches his meaning, but by the spirit he speaks. Okay. Chapter 14, verse two, pursue love yet desire earnestly spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy. He says, my only hint of the prophecy, which is to say that in order that you give a revelation.  He says for bounce, piggybacking off that for the one who speaks in a tongue, by the way, the word tongue is there's not an unknown tongue, but we interpret that as unknown tongue because it's a person speaking in a singular, uh, Glossae, instead of Glossae, which is plural in a singular. And that's what this is what Paul is rebuking. Paul is rebuking this singular tongue, the roto, whatever it is, the tongue that you hear these guys on. He's rebuking that. See, even if you don't agree with that, see if what I'm saying is at least plausible and makes sense for God, I'm sorry, for the one who speaks in a tongue, this ecstatic gibberish, this roto, whatever it is, that person does not speak to men before we go further. Is the person speaking in language supposed to speak to men? Sure he is. Remember, we just read also, we're going to read it again. If we keep reading chapter 14, that the gifts are for the benefit of others, not you, but for others. So you must be speaking and why for their edification. And he's going to compare that with the proper tongues. He says, he's not speaking to men, but to God. For no one understands, but in his spirit, he speaks mysteries. Now, there are some people who translate this, and there's a debate. Is it that he's, that he, for in his spirit, he speaks mystery or in the spirit, it varies. If you notice in the ESV, this is the ES, no the NESB, I'm sorry, the NESB has, but in his spirit, you'll see that. But now some versions do say, or by the spirit. The question is, which spirit? There's a debate because it can be either or. Okay, I would want to lean to it being by his spirit, but it could be by the spirit, which is why you never hear me really make a big fuss about it being his spirit. But there are translators who know Greek far better than I do, who are responsible for giving us this English versions, who say it's by the spirit or in his spirit. So I'm by the spirit either way. But it says that only God knows what he's saying. It's this again, this idiom guys, it's not saying that, yeah, God knows what he's saying. Now God knows what he's trying to get out. God knows exactly what it is you're trying to get out. Even if you do it the wrong way, God knows your hearts, your intentions. I wanted to give her a compliment, but the way I said it was creepy. Well, God knew what you meant. Now she did and she slapped you. You got hit with a restraining order, but God knew what you meant. So now, thank you, 16897. He said my tongues are amazing. I think so too. That's all you got to do. How come again, when they say it, it's like the same thing? You said that, you know, when you spoke in tongues, what you said at the two minute mark was exactly what you said at the 155 mark, which is exactly what you said at the 145 mark, which is exactly what you said at the 135 mark all the way down to the one second mark. You said the exact same thing. How does that possibly mean anything?  What'd you say, ma'am? Do my homework? Wait a second. You said the same thing, but okay, that's how we know it's a far, but he says, but the one who speaks in tongue, only God knows what you're saying. You're not speaking to men, but you're speaking to God for no one understands. That's the point. But in his spirit, what does he do? He's speaking mysteries. Now we're supposed to be doing. Paul said, I don't want you to be ignorant, but now you're ignorant. You don't know what you're saying, but the one who prophesies the one who gives revelation speaks edification and edification and exhortation and consolation to men. Remember, but as a word of contrast, contrasting you lifting up and edifying and consoling men versus you doing just for yourself. And that's what verse two is. Mike Boyer says, you are blaspheming the Holy Spirit. Well, I'll tell you what, I'm a blasphemy the Holy Spirit without you, my friend. God bless you. God bless you. Can't deal with you. Can't, can't deal with you, Mike.  Tweet that.  You're going to have to grow up, buddy.  You're going to have to listen. You're going to have to put on your adult clothes. Your thinking cap. Was that offensive? Was that bothersome? Was that mean? Well, today we are the mean Christian channel with a tough love channel.   I'm trying to think, can y'all refresh me? What did he say when he came on before? He said something is like, what in the world? I forgot. I got to go back and look what you said. I have to go back and listen to what you said when you came on. You said something and the entire chat was like, wow, who is this guy getting rid of this guy? I can't, I can't remember what you said. See, you're the reason why I can't bring other people on as much as I would like to. You're the reason why I can't remember what it was that you said. I forgot. I forgot. If any of y'all remember when he came on, y'all have to help me. I would unban you to let you say what you said, but you won't. Yeah, I think, well, at David, he said Christians don't have to have Holy Spirit. You know what it was? It was something about the Holy Spirit. I think that's what it was. Matter of fact, yeah, you said that we don't have to have the Holy Spirit. That's right. That's right. You know what? If you believe that, I wonder if you're safe. I really do. Yeah, you're out there, buddy. You're out there. I don't know. I don't know. I'm still confused about the utterance in the Spirit. What it is is, again, sometimes when we translate something from Greek or Hebrew or Arabic to English, trying to find the best explanation sometimes is hard because I might need this word. Another word might explain it better for me versus another word might explain it. It's the same. I might be able to use two or three or four different words, and if I have the option to use any one of these four words, well, this word, word number one is best for these people. Word number two is best for those people. And so Romans 8, 26, that might be one. It gives you the utterances. What it really is, is just, let's go back to it. Put them back on the screen. The Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings, two deeper words. There's something going on between the Holy Spirit in us and with God. Remember, the Holy Spirit is growing us. He's moving us. There's a fight. There's a battle going on in us. The battle is for us to do what we want to do. And sometimes, hey, you know what? I remember some sins that I've got some uncompleted sins. I might want to go back and finish. The Holy Spirit is wrestling, fighting, moving us, and even when I feel defeated, the Holy Spirit is working on that. When I feel desperate, when I feel depressed, the Holy Spirit is growing me. Sometimes when I don't want to be grown. And so I think that's really what he's explaining. Because if we go back to Romans 8, the whole point of Romans 8 has nothing to do with spiritual gifts. It has nothing to do with tongues. What is it? It's our life in Christ, how we walk in Christ. Remember Romans 8, 28. As a matter of fact, let's keep reading. And he who searches the heart knows the minds of the spirit what the spirit is because he intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. Now, not according to our will, but according to the will of God, he intercedes for us. Then he says, and we know that God causes all things to work together for the good of those who love God to those who are called according to his purpose. So this issue has nothing to do with tongues or really spiritual gifts. It's about the spirit working in us to grow us to bring about a victory for the purpose of God, for his glorification. Peacock and the light says, thank you for all you do. Thank you. Thank you for saying so. How do I know what my gift is and how I work in it? I'm an older lady and I'm afraid I may die without fulfilling what God wants me to do. Well, first of all, if you are a Christian, and I believe you are, but I know personally, but I don't assume you are. I mean, why else, why else would you be here on the Smart Christians channel? This is where smart Christians go, except for, except for people like Mike, except for them. They come here to, but this whole, first of all, you don't take a test. You don't, yeah, often those little spiritual gift tests, take the test right down and this is what my spiritual gift is. I can't imagine. I cannot imagine a believer dying without being utilized by the spirit in some way, shape, form or fashion. Now, we think it's going to show up by me. Let's say, let's, since we're using tongues, I happen to be in, I happen to encounter somebody in a different language. I don't know the language and they need to hear the gospel and I give it to them. That might happen. I don't know. It'll be, it'll be biblical though. No, it didn't have to be that to indicate that you have this particular spiritual gift. You just have been gifted by the spiritual. Remember, the word is used as spiritual things. Now, we reference it in terms of spiritual gifting, but let's say if you teach someone the gospel, if you read off the gospel, if you regurgitate the gospel, if you show some love to somebody, if you help somebody organize some things, if you help somebody figure out some things, if you comfort somebody, that is a gifting of the spirit. Now, I'm of, of the belief that he may not just gift me with one thing, but he'll gift me with whatever I need for his purpose. So let's just say if I'm back in those days, so here I am, I'm talking to someone of a different nationality, different language and I'm gifted to speak that language. But then I go over here and then this person needs healing. So he gives me to heal this person. Then I go over here, this person needs some understanding of the scripture. So he gives me, I'm saying at that time that the church is being founded. So I think that he works whatever, however, you need it, or more to the point, however, he needs you to need it. So I don't think that there's really any spiritual gifting that's off limits. I think that what's on the table is whatever the spirit, the Holy Spirit wants to do in you for someone else, for the benefit of the body growing. Madison, when is the next Q and A? I'm thinking about, I'm thinking about tomorrow, but if not at the, I'll definitely have one next week. I'm not sure though. And I should have, I've seen about the day. I actually did not think about going this long.  They will be a normal staple again and they'll be on Fridays. We'll go back to having the Q and A's and they'll be on Fridays and we'll go back to the classes and so forth. And as a matter of fact, because I might have a special video for you guys tomorrow. I'm working on something.  Where is he? So just stay tuned. If you don't catch it live, you just catch it on the replay. If you don't catch it live, watch it five times. My main man Cameron says, I don't agree with this, but I know they take act 19 to and say that you don't have to have, that you don't have the spirit when you believe you are saved, but don't have, hold on, this thing is moving on me.  A common question is, have you received the spirit since you believe, okay. And I know you don't believe that they do ask that question or they use that to say that it's a second work and so forth. Remember in Acts, we're talking about this little transitional period. Okay, Leon's, let me see where I'm gonna go to Leon's or two. Let me type this in. All right, I'll pull you up in a second. But remember we're describing in Acts or they're describing in Acts, what is happening for the foundation or the founding, not the foundation, but the founding of the church starts off with, as Jesus says to the Jews and to the Gentiles, the Jews consist of the Jews and then by proxy, by, by natural extension, their cousins, these Samaritans. So he says, you go to be my witnesses in Jerusalem and Judea, then Samarit to the rest of the world. And so we see first the Jews receive the Holy Spirit. So now the Jews know that the Holy Spirit is in them after placing their faith in Christ. But to make sure that we don't think that it's just the Jews, the Samaritans receive the Holy Spirit under whose hands. Philip know under an actual, show enough 100% Jew, John and Peter, they testify, give validation that the Samaritans have received the Holy Spirit. So the church knows that the Jews and the Samaritans have received the Holy Spirit. Who's next? The Gentiles. There's far more Gentiles than anybody else. And now the Gentiles receive the Holy Spirit. The Gentiles receive the Holy Spirit and what did the Jews do?  Okay. So now it's validated that everyone that believes has the Holy Spirit. Now, who's left? The people that have been listening or even preaching John's baptism. Remember John wasn't just out there by himself. John had disciples and there were some people that got baptized and believed and they're just in there waiting. That's why I asked, well, whose baptism did you, whose baptism did you receive? It was just John. So all we know, we haven't even heard of the Holy Spirit because now they knew that Jesus said that, or John had said that he will baptize you with Holy, with Holy Spirit and fire, but they hadn't heard of, they didn't know about this. And so now what's next? These people who had been, who had received John's baptism, they're just faithfully waiting. Now they get it. And so that's what that is. It's not a second, a second work. And so after that, everybody has now received the Holy Spirit. If they didn't baptize, cause Paul says in 1 Corinthians 12, I don't, you know, I don't know, I want to, I want to spend some time or maybe you guys can do it for me. I want to put out a APB, all points bulletin. We want to find Lovie's uncle. Now I don't know if he's in California. Now it could be that he's been found. We just haven't seen him. It could be he's there. We just don't know. We, he, listen, he might be here in the room with me. He might be, he might have his invisibility cloak or his spiritual gift of invisibility on and we just don't see him. So yeah, he's, he's invisible. So it's going to be hard to find them. Once it snows or once it rains, we might, we might be able to catch up with him. We might. So he might have child support payments due. So he's going to keep that invisibility on. Mr. Lovie's uncle, who is it? The police. Just a second. And then next thing you know, he's gone. Door opens in there. Where is he? Because behind the door, they heard, eat, can I buy a host? I buy a road. And then next, you know, bam, he's gone. That might, that might be what it is. Alrighty. Hello, sir. Am I doing this for clicks? No, and I don't recall inviting you either. Yes, this is the means Christian channel. Now why would you assume that I'm doing this for clicks? Can I ask you a question? Can I ask you a question reborn? This is just for reborn. Here's my question to you, sir. Should I not, should I not uncover this? Should I not talk about this? And if so, thanks for the dislike. If so, tell me why I shouldn't. Since you, since you brought it up, since you are impugning my integrity, I may not have any, but tell me why I should not cover this. Tell me if I feel like someone is distorting the scriptures, if they're using something out of order, if they're bringing about something false, should we not say anything about it? Help me understand. Tell me what you're feeling. Tell me. I'd like to know. Oh, he was, oh, he was putting time out. Okay. Now I got to wait. Now I got to, you said reborn is it? I hope he's not. I hope, I hope it's not, I hope it's not him. Where is it in the Bible? Did you just know, get here, go back and rewatch the video. Everything that I just covered, we, first of all, we covered the Bible and we covered how what he said is not in the Bible. What would you do if someone was out there telling you that they're giving out an entirely different gospel and it's harming people, causing them to question their salvation, causing them to question if they, if they're, because what it does is it makes you think that maybe I don't have the spirit in me. It makes you think that these people are so spiritual. They can, they can cast demons out. They can do all these wonderful, they can do all this stuff, but I can't. Where's my Holy Spirit? I've given the example before of a young lady named Michelle, when I was out, my outreach ministry days back in Lubbock, who did not think that she had the Holy Spirit. She didn't think it. Why? Because she didn't speak in tongues. She hadn't, she hadn't fallen out. She hadn't been slain in the spirit yet and didn't speak in tongues. And so her, her thought was, I don't have the Holy Spirit. Maybe I'm, maybe I'm not even saved. Do you see how, how damaging that is? You see how, how, how painful that could be for somebody? And so when they hear this stuff, it makes them question their walk in their salvation. And then you asked me for showing how wrong that is. You asked me, am I doing this for clicks? The Bible tells us, reborn, the Bible's clear, to mark and avoid. How do we avoid someone if we don't mark them? The Bible tells us to be aware of false teachers, to be aware of wolves. How do, how do we, to be aware of this as we don't call them out? The Bible tells us to expose them. Paul on his deathbed says, beware of Alexander. You saying, am I doing this for clicks or likes? Ask Paul, did he do it for clicks and likes? Maybe people out here actually love the Bible more than you do. Maybe it's what it is. Maybe you're just, maybe you're just still growing in this and you don't get it. Maybe you're one of those Christians who think that let's just leave me alone. Let's live and let live, even if it hurts the body. Let the wolves attack the sheep. Just mind your own business. Where are you at reborn? I want, we're talking now.  So tell me where I'm wrong in this. Tell me how I have severely misunderstood the scriptures. Wait a second, wait a second. So am I, so you're asking, you said you're talking about the gifts. So if I talk about the gifts and you disagree that I'm doing it for likes, for clicks, did you think through what you just typed? Not this one, but the first. Did you think it through or you just said something? So I cannot, now tell me where I'm, I'm wrong in this and we're not going to take a long time because I've covered this over and over and over and over and over again. People ask, people have asked me to cover this. People have asked me to cover this. And I don't have a problem with you disagreeing, but when you say, hey, you're only doing it for clicks and like, well then why did you click on it? Why? I'm pretty, I'm pretty sure, I know it is, I know this chess chat. I'm, you clearly gave a dislike. So that's why I wanted the, by the way, by the way, can I give you YouTube secrets? Someone told me, someone told me that dislikes also help, help the chat, help out algorithm. I don't know if it's true or not. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Just my glasses. No, no, this really isn't, this isn't talking. This really isn't prison, Cory. This is just, this is just regular old Cory. This is just, I'm wanting to stop dealing with the foolishness. I'm wanting to call out, you said it's a brand new account. Okay. Okay. I'm wanting to, I'm wanting us to, but whoever this account is though, chess chat, it does reflect a lot of the opinions of some, of some babes in Christ or some non-christians who call up with it. They are. And so thank, thank you. Thank you, sweetheart. Thank you. That makes me feel good. And I, but the point is though, guys, again, it just makes me wonder when you listen to these people and you have a defense for them, but no defense for the scriptures. It does kind of, I'm just going to be honest, guys, it lets us know who side you're on. It lets you know where you are.   But when you watch something on TikTok or Facebook, Google or YouTube or what have you, and you say, Hey, I was looking for leather jackets. I typed in leather jackets on, on Google. Next thing I know, I got to add for leather jackets on, on, on, on YouTube or the same company. Same thing on Facebook. They're sharing information. They're sharing information.  That's your viewing habits or someone with access to your account. I've never seen any vulgar commercial or anything. I get old. I get old people stuff. I get, and the minute that something pops up, you ever clicked on something and then it was a wrong, that's not what I want. So what I'll do is I'll put not interested. I'll click not interested because I don't want YouTube to send me that stuff. Why? Because my grandkids also they'll come and grab my phone. Also, my wife come and grab the phone too. She'll come grab the phone. So what are you doing? Looking up braziers. Nope, that ain't gonna happen. So what you see guys, as you know, is a lot, has a lot to do with, has a lot to do with your viewing habits. Also the channel as well, the challenge demographics. So if I go to a gaming site, if I go to a football site, and I haven't looked up anything about footballs or basketball or whatever, but they give me certain ads, because that's what the site is also the channels about. Well, you're not going to get naked women and vulgarity, whatever, naturally as a byproduct of this channel because that's simply the channels about. And so the only place that you can get it from is from your own. Are you with me? Can I give you something that's really actually, listen, moderators remind me to never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever ban. White men can't jump. I think you add a lot to the channel. You do. You help us, you help us to deal with the nonsense.  I'm wondering, are you even white? You might, you might be Korean. You might be Korean.  I'm just, I'm just thinking outside, but look, look at what you just asked. You said, let's look it over here. Everybody is going to Cory for Bible truths. They're not, we're just, we're discussing this stuff and we're using scriptures. And those same people are never taking one second to inquire of the Holy Spirit about Bible truths. Here's my question. Who gave us the Bible? While you're figuring this out, Korean lady who can't jump, the Holy Spirit gave us the Bible. So when you go to the Bible, what are you going to? The written evidence to prove of the Holy Spirit. I don't know if you knew that or not, but that, it literally comes from the Holy Spirit. Now can I ask you all a question? How come I might be wrong? I might be right. Could be wrong. Could be wrong. Like Mr. Could be, could be not. Who's to say? Some of y'all are like, who's Mr? Go watch Color Purple if you haven't seen that. If you haven't watched Color Purple, shame on you. Purple lives matter. How about that? Now, they're all right. Esther Shield, here we go again. Bless your heart, sweetheart. She says, you are leading people astray. Please stop. What are we supposed to do with that? You know what, you're right. You're right. Let me go ahead and contact YouTube and Google. Let me cut. Let me shut the channel down because you just said that, but you didn't give me any reason why. Tell me why I'm wrong. Now, that's what I want to know. Answer me this question, guys. Please, please answer me this question. By the way, let's see. Whereas I like how you think in trying to say, I'm a babe, been safe for a while. I don't know. I don't know how long you've been safe.  It's all I can do. So all I can do is judge you off how well he's not a troll. Well, but, but you got a brand new account. You got to stop responding to these guys. The reason why I do, the reason why I do Marvin is you, you have no idea how many people are real life legitimate people who think this way. And a lot of them, like, you know what I, there are, listen, there are a lot of folks who disagree with me maybe a year ago, a half a year ago. And like, you know what, I've come around. I've come pretty soon back 69 Baptist is going to think just like me in terms of doctrine and theology and so forth. Even as Baptist, the a lot, Baptist, 69, I can't even say it right. 69 Baptist is eventually going to say what I say. Watch. I'm speaking into existence, but I got a question. I got a question. I'm coming to you, Eric, but here's my question. How come people believe in the gift of tongues? How come people believe in the gift of prophecy? How come people believe in the gift of healing? How come people believe in all these other gifts that these other people have and we've never seen them exhibited like the Bible, but how come I can't have the gift of knowledge? I'm not saying I do. I'm not saying I do, but how come I can't? How come there's no such thing for some of you guys as the gift of knowledge? I don't know if you're white or not. I don't know. I don't know what you are. You might be, I'm just saying, I know you're not good with the scriptures. That's all I know. I don't know if you're white or black or not. You might be, you might be white. You might be white. Go do a 23 and one or 23 and me, whatever, and find out if, how white you are. I don't know. It doesn't matter. I'm just saying that you're not good with the scriptures. That's my whole point, but how come a person can't be gifted, uh, spiritually gifted with knowledge? I'm not saying I am or am not, but the first thing you think of, people say that you guys are worried about knowledge and understanding the Bible and so forth, whatever. Isn't that a, doesn't the Holy Spirit gift people that way? Really, I think he gifts all of us who are in him to grow that way. He tells us to grow in the grace and the knowledge and my life's work is going to be centered around this Bible. Yes, it is. Eric says, Hey Corey. Hey Eric. He says, I have a question about 1st Corinthians 15-29. Did the New Testament church baptize for the? No. No, Paul is making a point. Don't go on it. That's a good point. I mean, it's, it's a, it's one of those things where you have to, you really need to do a video on it. I'm not going to do one or at least promise to do one because it may take me forever to do it, but I promise to, so I don't want to court myself into doing so. But he's saying, he's speaking about the resurrection and he's saying, since you all believe that you people being baptized for the dead, why are you also believing that this about the revelation about the resurrection that there is no resurrection? So even your own beliefs, you have to believe there's some sort of resurrection to go with that. Did I just judge you? I don't know if I judge you or not. Is that a sin to judge you? It's not a sin to judge you. You do realize judging you is not a sin. I just have to judge you right. So I don't even know if I just, I don't even remember what I just said about you. So, but do you all believe there is a such thing as the gift of knowledge? I probably don't have it, but I'm just saying, but you automatically assume that because if I use the Bible to impugn what they say they did, I don't get that. You all deny that spiritual gift. You all deny that spiritual gift. You might have just called me Chrome Dome. So anyway, I've turned a 30 minute live stream into almost an hour and 45 minute live stream because of you people. You guys did it to me. To be clear, sister Becky, I do. I believe that any gifting of the spirit will be just like it is in the Bible. And the only time that we see tongues used in the Bible, the only time that we see it is languages. The word glossize literally means languages. And so I believe it's a gift of languages in, or as Jesus says, to preach the gospel, to testify of him in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and the rest of the world. That's what I believe it's for. I believe in the move of the spirit. What did you say? I am 60. I did two videos. I'm going to cover them again. I want to thank you. Yeah. I pushed it wrong, but I don't know. I am. I'm going to cover that. I'm going to cover Catholicism. So anyway, guys, have a good night. Where are you? You just caught me. Where are you on the other side of the world? By the way, that little thing on the phone, where the little find my, I was messing around with it today. I could, I fell in love with it today. I was pushing it and I went to, I went all over the country. I went down. You know, there's a part where you can scroll and it shows the top of the buildings and so forth. I went down to Mexico. I went to Hawaii. I went to Haiti.  When you look down on it with a little Google maps thing or whatever, whatever that technology is, it's like, I don't want to live there just by looking down. You can't see the people. I don't even live there when I just saw. Thank you, Clues Productions. I appreciate the super chat. I went to, to Haiti and my first thought was, yeah, I'm never going there. I went to Acapulco. I saw a lot of little, what looks like nice buildings up from the top. Although, I went to part the outskirts of Mexico. I ain't going there. I'm not going there. Went to Hawaii. It was still dark. I went to Alaska tomorrow. I'm going to go, where am I going tomorrow? I'm going somewhere in the other part of the world. I don't know why that thing fascinates me. What it is, I've been in prison too long and so I'm just now catching up with technology. So I'm sorry. I am so sorry. Wow. I'm sorry. I said I'm Haitian. I'm sorry. Love Haitians. I ain't going to Haiti though. Love Haitians. I had a buddy of mine. Good brother. Good brother in the Lord. Good brother in the Lord. He was Haitian and what he was doing was he was translating. He was taking the Bible in English and writing it in French or whatever, derelict the French that he spoke in. And it's so cool. He was writing every, every word, writing it in his language and mailing it back home for his kids to read. I thought that was so cool. I thought, but now he did do something kind of. He went to the showers without his shower shoes on. He went into the showers without his shower shoes on. Don't walk into a prison shower without your shower shoes on. His foot swole up like a moose on his foot. It was just, it was horrible in Mexico right now.  That's where I'm going. I'm going to war as tonight. I'm traveling. I'm traveling the world. Corey San Diego. That's right. Future. I'm going everywhere. Anyway, guys, I love you. I've got to get out of here. I really, I really have a bunch of do. I was, I said, I'm going to do this for just, and here I am. Say it again. Say it again, David. By the way, we all do more studying, but, but, but certainly, certainly does reborn. Certainly does Mike. Yeah. White man. Keep coming to the channel, brother. I love you. I really do. If I, if I have said anything to where I have offended you, if I say anything where I hurt your feelings, if I said anything inappropriately that made you feel bad, amen. I meant it. I really, I really did. I really did. I want you to be so bothered if I finish you to go to the scriptures and try to prove beyond a shadow of doubt that you're right and I'm wrong. It'll cause you to delve deeper in the scriptures. I want you to take what Lovie Eliza said and compare it with scriptures. I hope it bothers you that much to go and see prove that Lovie is right. And you'll come away with a conclusion. If you actually read the Bible, you care about the Bible, you care about the Lord, you care about the word of God, it'll cause you to see that. Yeah, we can't stand for foolishness. That's what I hope you did. If you do that, if you're mad at me, if being mad at me causes you to go and search the scriptures, if being mad at me causes you to be a Berean, well then amen. Amen.


studying Romeo and Juliet. Here's how you can analyze Act 1 scene 3 when we first meet Juliet. Lady Capulet Juliet's mom asks the nurse where's my daughter what this does is it emphasizes the emotional and physical distance that exists between Lady Capulet and the nurse. It seems like the nurse is closer to Juliet. Juliet addresses her mother as Madam. The caesura here emphasizes just how formal the relationship is. There's little emotional connection. The nurse says I can tell her age unto an hour. This hyperbole shows that the nurse and Juliet are really close. The nurse seems more like a mother to her. The nurse confirms here that Juliet is still young. She's still 13 years old. Yet Lady Capulet is keen on Juliet getting married and this is shown through repetition of the words marry. Yet Juliet says she doesn't dream of marriage here which shows that she's quite assertive and headstrong. Yet Lady Capulet is insistent. The valiant Paris seeks you for his love. She really wants Paris to marry her. Juliet gives into her mom's pressure and the alliteration here shows that she will try to fall in love with Paris.


chocolate-covered strawberries. That cream cheese and butter that powder should oh my goodness it's delicious. That is over the top good. I can dip strawberries in it and I'm going to use Hershey's milk chocolate chips and I'm gonna pour enough in here that I think I can dip at least four strawberries. Now I've already washed my strawberries and I'll tell you about them while we're heating this up in the microwave. That's about a half cup of milk chocolate chips. I'm going to microwave this on 30 second intervals until it's good and soft and you want to just keep mixing it once it gets pretty melted because it'll be warming up to melt it the rest of the way. Be careful and don't burn your chocolate. Okay we have four pretty strawberries. I took a clean dish rag wet it and let it be damp and I wipe these down really well and I wipe down the green part. They always have a little brown pieces in the green part and then you're going to want to just put them back in a bowl. That's our microwave going off.  So while this chocolate is nice and hot you're going to dip our strawberry. Alright we're just going to take it by the stem pull it all the way up so that the stem didn't get caught in the chocolate and then you're just going to take the strawberry be careful that the stem don't fall off and you're just going to roll it around in that chocolate and let it drip and then lay it on a plate and then we're going to let this cool before we put it on our pretty little cakes that we've made. Just put a pattern around. She's playing. You're going to let these cool. Okay I'm going to show you how to stuff a strawberry. This is a really neat way to have a dessert that's really simple. If you don't want to do the cake and all that you can just mix up this cream cheese mixture.  I am just going to just barely cut the greenery off of the strawberry.  So you've got your greenery and your strawberry. Now I'm going to pick this up and create a cone out of it and you can buy the cones at the grocery store if you don't know how to make a cone.  You turn it towards the center here and then you wrap this around the actual you just wrap that around like that and you can play with it up and down like that to get it tighter. You put it in place and you put your tip down in there because we're going to stuff the strawberry. You're going to take your strawberry now and put the cream cheese and butter mixture in it. There we have it. A stuffed strawberry. Alright, I have got a large tip that I bought that came in a kit for cupcakes. It has a center in the middle so I'm thinking it'll leave a place for our strawberry and then it has these long, long cutouts on the tip for the icing to come through. We're going to put some of this fluffy cream cheese icing in our bag and now we're going to put some pecans around the edge and toasted pecans with cream cheese and red velvet is just absolutely delicious. If you've never had your pecans toasted with your red velvet it just brings it. It just is just amazing. Makes it delicious. So we're just going to let these line up around the edge and they'll cover up that little bit of red we can see. Okay now we'll get our strawberries and finish these off. Alrighty, the first thing we're going to do today is we're going to take a cake mix, a white cake mix, put it in the bowl and three tablespoons of cocoa and I'm going to whisk it together really well. Now if you don't have a wire whisk this is a pretty lumpy cake mix. When a cake mix is lumpy like this you can sift it through a sifter if you'd like as well. So this is a Kroger white cake mix. When you buy a white cake mix it actually has more mix in the box if you'll notice when you go to the grocery store next time. So lots of times I'll buy a white cake mix and then turn it into whatever I want it to be because I get more mix that way. We're going to add a quarter cup of butter which is a half a stick and I use whole butter milk. Red food coloring but before we add it I want to make sure that all of the butter is off the bottom of the bowl. Open one fluid ounce of red food coloring in there and that's all there is to it and this red velvet cake you just cannot beat it. We're going to bake these at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. I've also got some just for Valentine's Day that are a little more special. I've got some small Remkins and we're going to spray these Remkins with some cooking spray. You can do this over the sink if you'd like. Of course I don't do that for the show because I want y'all to be able to see it. Typically when I spray my pans I do it over the sink and now we're going to put cake in these and these are going to be special just for Valentine's Day for me and Chris and the girls.  You're going to bake these at 350 degrees for about seven to eight minutes. As soon as you start to barely smell them take them out. You don't want them to get too brown. We're going to use these. Alright, we are going to get these out of the oven. I am going to get out the red cakes. Also, we're going to take out our pecans. Now it's time to make the cream cheese icing. I have got one stick of room temperature butter and an 8 ounce block of cream cheese at room temperature and we're going to blend these together. I'm not going to do the full recipe that's in my cookbook because I'm only icing a few cupcakes instead of a cake. So we're going to use about a pound of powdered sugar. I've got a two pound bag here and we're just going to add in about a pound. Now all I'm going to do is scrape the sides of my bowl and then I'm going to just mix it a good four minutes or so so it'll get nice and fluffy but this is really cream cheesy and buttery and that's how I want it to be. It's going to be very rich. I'm going to take this off and I'm going to give it a taste for y'all. I got, oh my gosh, mmm, oh my goodness, my lord. Y'all that's better than chocolate covered strawberries. That cream cheese and butter, that powdered sugar, oh my goodness, it's delicious. That is over the top. Good. I ain't kidding. I'm going to just dip this in the coins and take a bite for y'all. Red velvet? Happy Valentine's Day to me. Oh that's so good. It's really good y'all. I like the fresh strawberry actually better. Not that the cake's not good. It's just, there's just something about it that was just over the top for me. Alright we're going to put our strawberry on our cake. I'm going to show y'all our Valentine Master Vs and then happy Valentine's Day.
