5:53 AM – Ketu (Lagos-Nigeria)
Ben woke up, worried he had overslept. Last night, he left his internet data on. Reaching for his phone, he mindlessly launched the YouTube app. The next minute, he was overwhelmed with video suggestions.
- One was a video showing Jesus Christ on a spaceship.
- Another video claims to reveal the true location of the Garden of Eden somewhere in Nigeria, West Africa.
- Next was a TV show where men picked from a group of random, naked women.
- Below that was the headline: “Breaking! Passenger Airplane Vanishes In Plain Sight”.
Ben tried to decide which video to click. Then, a silent voice reminded him why he had visited YouTube in the first place: “Oh! I wanted to see a video about the importance of ICT in ministry.” He sighed.
Avoid Information Overload: Stay Focused on What Matters
Taking a deep breath, Ben resisted the temptation to binge-watch those videos and typed in the search bar: “How to use ICT to enhance my ministry.” But Ben’s experience is the day-to-day challenge many people face online – on Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, & YouTube. Everything screams for attention—“Click me! Buy me! Get me! Love me! Choose me! Don’t you want me? Please avoid me!” None of these advertisers care about your mental health and that is why today’s message is simple:
Do Not Get Lost In The Story!
Like Ben, I watch a lot of people get caught up in arguments about the Bible or theology. Their endless debates cause more confusion than before they start. Debates that have made some become agnostic, and others atheist. Why are they searching for what was never lost in the first place? If anything is missing, it certainly isn’t God! Do you agree nothing is missing? Let’s review some common topics:
– Should we honor the Greek Septuagint over the Hebrew Masoretic texts?
– What was God doing while aliens supposedly abducted and impregnated human females in ancient times?
– Is Genesis truly “Gene-Isis,” a hidden story about the Babylonian/Sumerian goddess Isis?
– Are we trapped in a time loop, a matrix with no means to escape?
If you’re already trying to figure things out, pause and tell yourself: DO NOT GET LOST IN THE STORIES!
Don’t Get Caught in False Narratives
Stories are like cobwebs, easily spun by idle minds. The human mind is a natural dreamer, constantly imagining and trying to construct narratives around anything. This restless state is natural but temporary. Every mind must surpass this chatterbox stage to reach a peaceful state of maturity—often called stillness or enlightenment. The enlightened recognize the noise for what it is: a quest to capture their attention. The wise choose when to give or withdraw attention, refusing to be enslaved by any concept.
Like a fly caught in a spider’s web, people struggle against circumstances, thinking they’re fighting a nearby enemy. Most of your fights are against a deceptive society that victimizes the human soul. The world is a web of lies spun to ensnare people, trapping your mind in its religious systems, governmental structures, and societal norms. Escaping one trap often leads to another—whether it’s the shackles of religion or the bureaucracies of state governance.
You Can Break Free from Society’s Web of Lies
Despite the world’s deceptions, I urge you to maintain a mental poise that allows you to “walk on water” rather than swim with the sharks. Most people are unaware of their life’s purpose, blindly following narratives that move them like characters in a video game. Few possess the wisdom or courage to wrestle free and live out their true calling.
The first step to freedom is the decision: I WILL NOT BE SOLD OVER TO STORIES!
Marketing and media professionals will tell you to “sell your brand through storytelling.” We all know stories can be powerful—both for good and bad. This is why brands flood social media with endless stories. If stories had clear endings, you’d escape the sales funnel. But they make the narrative cyclical, much like the tale of Solomon Grundy. Stories develop after the fact, but what if nothing is happening? Then there’s no story to tell. Imaginary stories follow the same pattern. Your mind wanders, and then narratives emerge. But remember: if you were to die right now, no story would matter to you anymore.
The Value of Stories Lies in the Truth They Convey
The worth of any story is not in the story itself but in the truth it holds. Consider the tale of a blind man miraculously healed by a spiritual healer:
– We could value the story based on the compassion of the healer.
– Or, we could value it based on the blind man’s happiness.
– But what if the blind man becomes a healer himself?
We can debate these perspectives all day. But a story only exists because of an experience. Stories claiming truth should be valued based on the ‘truth’ they convey. Without that, the story is meaningless. And any narrative promoting falsehood, no matter how well-crafted, remains worthless.
How to Recognize Truth in a Story
When engaging with stories, focus on identifying the truth they offer, then move on. This exercise is crucial for spirituality. Hold onto the truth within a story, but don’t get lost in the narrative and drama. Don’t complicate your life further—stories deceive, but truth liberates.
Let this message guide you in your journey toward spiritual mastery. There is nothing like a “human” life – all life is spiritual and all is part of God’s existence. No matter what you hear or read, cling to the truth in the message and let go of the narrative. Avoid getting lost in the stories. Do not get lost in the story, my friend.
Salvation Doesn’t Come from Stories
Let me be clear: Your salvation does NOT depend on the stories you believe—biblical or otherwise. Stories cannot save you from destruction. Believing in the wrong narratives will trap you in cycles of misinformation. The real good news, or gospel, was never a story and cannot be one. Truth is precise—it’s measurable, scientific, and spiritual. It is not subjective or philosophical. The gospel is exciting news to those who love to have a world of love, peace, and friendship. The same good news is bad news to those who wish to subject other people to slavery. If you’re all about people calling you ‘boss’, ‘daddy’, ‘master’, or ‘lord’ – the gospel is bad news for you.
To spot the enemy of the true gospel, take a look at those who make money from keeping humanity divided here on Earth. They bring new divisive instruments now and then; today it’s a means to divide the family, tomorrow they’ll try to divide us based on gender, then by social class, by financial status, and by religious or political affiliations. It’s how “they” make themselves appear as the only people with the special brain to govern humankind, a false narrative they sell to us daily through music, films, and just about anything.
The truth however is not tied to one human being – not you, me, or even Jesus Christ. Please understand my point here, Jesus Christ was a true human being on Earth, as was Adam, but Jesus Christ was not the “ultimate” embodiment of truth. You can become greater in your representation of Truth on Earth. This possibility in no way diminishes the fact that your ministry and success follow the established spiritual order of Jesus Christ. Truth, by its nature, is timeless. It cannot be confined to a single person or moment. Even a miraculous figure like Jesus, who could move swiftly through time, is still subject to time. But truth exists beyond time.
Break Free from the Shackles of False Beliefs
I’m sharing this message to free you from the false teachings that have imprisoned humanity for centuries. Religious leaders—whether apostles, prophets, or popes—have misled the masses by claiming Jesus Christ is the Ultimate Truth personified. This belief is not only incorrect, but it’s dangerous.
The Truth is Your Liberator
I am here to set souls free with the power of truth. I don’t need miracles, political correctness, or religious approval. The truth alone guides and sustains me.
The Unchanging Glory of Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ cannot be made more glorious than he already is by spreading lies about him. Jesus has never asked anyone to fabricate lies to make him seem greater than he is. If we stick to the biblical accounts of him, it’s clear that he doesn’t see himself as the Alpha and Omega of all existence because he explicitly states that his Father is a much greater being. For example, we have a place in the Book of Revelation where Jesus is quoted as saying, ‘I am the Alpha and the Omega’, but it also clearly stated that these revelation messages Jesus brings were given to him by his Father, ELOI. Many claim the Book of Revelation is about Jesus Christ but no, it’s about ELOI.
To Represent the Truth is not to Impersonate the Truth
The sender is greater than the sent, especially when it comes to the authority of God. One sent by God can speak in the first person, I AM, when the messenger is led to communicate his messages that way, which is NEVER all the time. The minister of God is not God, even though he may have spoken as God.
Please understand these things! It doesn’t bring Jesus joy that people exaggerate his image to the point where even he wouldn’t recognize who they are talking about. According to the Bible, he was a Jewish man, and to be clear, that Jewishness places limitations on him. However, Truth is without limits.
Exposing the Evil Web of Lies
Throughout history, human beings have used the name and story of Jesus Christ to enslave the world in a deceitful web of misinformation, designed to trap human souls. The same deception has been perpetuated through other non-Christian, religious beliefs such as Islam which claims to be the final authority on Truth but is not.
I am here to free souls from evil spiritual overlords, and my weapon is simple: The Truth. I don’t need to perform miracles to deceive anyone, nor do I need to seek political or religious approval to gain followers. The Truth is enough to lead and guide me. Miracles can be performed when the Spirit of God determines it, and we move in alignment with divine instructions. Timing also plays an important role when it comes to miracles, which is why some miracles fail to happen until they are ripe. We can discuss miracles in another message because all miracles can be explained.
Jesus Christ did exactly what I am doing now—he saw that his people, the Jews, were deeply imprisoned by a religious system controlled by false messiahs, ignorant priests, and human leaders. Instead of conforming, Jesus carefully observed their schemes, and when his time came, he stepped forward to awaken people from their religious blindness. By doing this, he earned more enemies on Earth than any criminal ever could. His enemies multiplied as they discovered new ways to merchandise his work.
The Mantle of Truth: Passed On
If Jesus Christ was selfishly concerned with claiming the title of The Ultimate Truth, he wouldn’t have sent me to take up this mantle on Earth. He wouldn’t have specifically asked me to run the same race he did on Earth. Here I stand, on the brink of another historic moment. We are here to tear apart the web of lies that Jesus Christ once fought against—lies that have been spun in his name since his physical departure, distorting his message and complicating his story to sabotage the salvation of human souls.
Now, you can see why I’ve been telling you one thing repeatedly: DO NOT GET LOST IN THE STORY!
False Narratives: The Lowest Bidder
The human population, both religious and non-religious, has been sold to the lowest bidder through false narratives. Truth is the highest bidder, so you don’t need to worry about being saved. If you have ever truly loved the truth, or if you’ve ever known anything about the Jewish man called Jesus, you’d know that he is not afraid to lose a crowd of followers!
I have my encounters and experiences with Jesus of Nazareth, but that would be just another story. My goal is not to tell you more stories but to shake you with the hard truth. This message will either make you run away from me, or it will prepare you to embrace The Ultimate Truth. But don’t worry, you can’t escape the Truth. Whenever you find Truth, you discover that it’s always available, omnipresent, and untouched by any stories. Truth is spiritual, but more importantly, Truth is the Spirit of life that cannot be broken. Truth is indomitable!
Truth Stands Alone, Unshaken by Popularity
At this point, some may be thinking, “If the Truth isn’t Jesus Christ, whom nearly two-thirds of humanity believes to be the Truth, then who is it?” But Truth is not determined by a popularity vote, and it cannot be destroyed even if the entire world ignores it. Everything functions because of Truth, which is the ultimate principle of existence. Truth has never gone anywhere—it remains exactly where it has always been. Christians, don’t panic, Jesus is with you on this journey!
Life and Truth: Inseparable
Let’s cut to the chase: Truth is life, and life alone is Truth.
What is life, then? It is the very quality by which all things come to be. Existence itself is life, and Truth is the sustainer of all existence. Truth could sustain nothing if those things did not originate from Truth. This is exactly why lies fail, it is because they are not produced by Truth. Falsehoods have no roots, they are like imaginary gardens.
Truth itself cannot be polluted, all foreign bodies are cast out. Only the source of a river can refill it, no matter how much water spills over its banks. The source also refreshes the river, regardless of how much pollution is thrown into it. This describes the power of Truth concerning life.
- Kill a life, and Truth will resurrect it.
- Imprison a life, and Truth will set it free.
- Confuse a mind, and Truth will break its chains.
No situation is too difficult for Truth to resolve, and the resolution of Truth is permanent.
Avoid Getting Lost in Stories and Theories
Be careful not to get lost in stories, parables, or analogies. It’s easy to theorize about what Truth is, but Truth is not a theory. Nothing escapes Truth, and nothing can corrupt it. You may hide the Truth, but it remains visible to all. You may hide yourself from Truth, yet you are always exposed to it. You may choose to be blind to Truth, but Truth is never lost—never!
Truth: The Spirit of Life and the Life of Spirit
To uncover the Truth about any life or life form, look into its Spirit, and there you will find its Truth. To say that Truth is Spirit is to say that Truth is the principle that allows all things to exist. This means Truth is always whole and holy. The best and only true definition of wholeness and holiness is Truth. Wherever Truth is honored and presented—whether in stories or songs—there is your salvation and Saviour.
Salvation and Spiritual Liberation
Yet, not every presentation of Truth can emancipate your soul from the spiritual prison that Earth has become. To access soul-liberating Truth, we must focus on the spirit, which points us back to Truth. Let it be settled in your being: your salvation from deception and your escape from spiritual slavery won’t come merely from invoking the sacred name of any divine figure. While a divine person may sometimes come to your aid when you call, your true salvation comes when you embrace life to the fullest and live Truth to the fullest.
Living life fully and upholding Truth will only happen when you know and become one with The Spirit of Truth. This Spirit is Truth itself, and this Spirit is the only true God there ever is—the only true God that ever can be, anywhere in existence!
What is Spirit?
Words are both cheap and deep. They can be used to deceive or to liberate, depending on their use. Spirit, Life, and Truth are just words, and they mean nothing in this message unless you have experienced what they convey.
Like stories, all words are useless on their own. The value of words comes from the Truth they convey. This challenge of expressing Truth through words is why Jesus remained silent when Pilate asked him, “What is Truth?”
The True Identity of Jesus Christ
If asked the same question today, Jesus Christ would remain silent. But if he were to speak for the sake of those listening, he could only say, “I am the Truth,” meaning, “When you explore my existence in the Spirit, you will discover that Truth is what I truly am, and anything else you’ve imagined me to be is both false and irrelevant to me.” This is what Jesus taught and lived! A life that flows forth from the Spirit of Truth.
Sadly, humanity has become deeply entangled in idolatrous worship of someone they don’t truly know. They’ve called him the Truth without knowing the Truth that made him who he is. They’ve called him Lord without caring to be guided by the Truth that Jesus himself served and devoted his life to. People encourage you to give your life to Christ, but your life is Truth, and that is the same life that Jesus Christ served.
Whatever Jesus of Nazareth was, you are too! If you say Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, I’m telling you that you are the same right now—not in the future, but right now. Even if you deny it.
You are spirit, you are light, you are life, and yes, you are God-made-manifest, even when you don’t know how to be just that. Truth does not depend on being proven right; it is Truth that proves everything, whether it is right or not. What is right will live, and what is wrong will die. Truth is the ultimate judge of all that exists. Truth is what it is. It is the “I am that I am” within everyone who has realized the “I am that I am” within themselves. Like Jesus!
So one last time, I say to you, Never let yourself get lost in the stories that people tell you about Truth!
