"And The Pharisees Were Offended" - A Day in a Life
This will be thoughts from the Holy Spirit about the "Day in a Life" of Witness 2, and also answering a question about why I posted Matthew 12 the other day, with reader contributions. This post is actually about music, and I believe readers will enjoy it.
Introduction - "And The Pharisees Were Offended."
I have been reading the book of Matthew in my morning Bible studies, and the other day I was told by the Holy Spirit to post Matthew 12 for several reasons. Before I reveal those reasons, and some reader contributions, I wanted to share something about "A Day in the Life" of me - Winess 2.
Most are familiar with the Beatles, and if you have never heard the song "A Day in the Life" it is one of my favorites - exermplifying the cleverness of them putting 3 songs into one. In a Radiohead interview, Thom Yorke once said "Paranoid Android" was inspired in the same way - "If the Beatles can do it, so can we" - or something along those lines. Anyway, going back to the song "A Day in the Life", I took some of the lyrics and wrote my own rendition of the song - just for fun - later in this post...
Before I share the song, I wanted to explain the context.
Much of my effort for in this blog is spent fighting with the modern-day Pharisees. They are obsessed with rules, laws, and being right. They have little love in their heart, and I offend many of them - all of the time. That is why I posted Matthew 15:12-20 above. Do you know the Pharisees are offended by what I write?
In prayer this morning, I was praying about a man in our real life ministry. I will call him Derrick.
Derrick is an American man who has all sorts of problems. When I first met him, he told me he was a polygamist, and I rebuked that, but we still became friends. To note, he did acquiesce a bit on this topic and does not have even one girlfriend, so I told him maybe try to have just one first. : )
I don't always agree with him, no, and sometimes I think he is misguided.
However, there is one thing about him I cannot deny. He is full of true, agape love.
This man, though kind of goofy at times, is just one of most loving men I ever met.
The truth is, and I don't say this in a cruel way - he has some flaws. He has some work to do. Did you know the Holy Spirit tells me things about people that would be impossible for me to know? When you all email me, the Holy Spirit already tells me what is wrong, and what I can do. So, there are things I know about him he doesn't even know about himself.
So, he gets it wrong, and he messes up. And, you know sometimes, he tells me about how he is constantly entering sweepstakes, or he constantly is blowing up my messenger with songs. He did win one of the sweepstakes, by the way!
But despite all of this sort of quirkiness, he is just so d*mn loving.
Though he gets it wrong at times, his love always conquers all. Though he falls short at times, his love conquers all. I can tell he follows Jesus Christ. Plus, he is pretty generous.
Even with those flaws, I'd rather talk to him any day over these Pharisees who email me.
They are always offended, and they always have a critique. They always acknowledge the amount of work I am doing, but then must explain how I can do it better. They are always accusing me, which leads into my next point.
Satan the Accuser
Satan is the accuser, and so are Pharisees because they are often operating in his spirit.
The other day I received an email from someone that said I should not be posting about the vaccine as the mark because I am leading people to hopelessness.
In doing so, this man greatly dismissed work we have done on repentance and the hope we have given to many who have taken the vaccine. We are the only ones who are saying the truth about the vaccine - that yes it is the abomination, but people can possibly repent. We are the only ones in the entire world with this controversial message.
This message will offend many - that is true! But can I deny our Lord Jesus Christ and what He told me to do? He told me I MUST tell the truth in this ministry, even if it is painful. This truth led us to create this ministry, and it is the most controversial truth in the world.
Why do you all think the two witnesses are going to be hated and eventually killed?! What they say offends the entire world! What could offend more people than saying the vaccine is the mark? I'd argue nothing. This is the only thing that can no longer be said, and one day we will say it to the whole world live.
What do you think the Revelation 12 woman has that no one else has - the ability to help people be forgiven for the vaccine. Pray about this - I won't say anything further about it for now. That is why the beast is going against her - she gives hope to the ones he thought he stole. Again, just pray.
As I have written before, it doesn't matter if you think we are THE two witnesses or just two witnesses of Revelation (at least it doesn't matter...yet), but at the very least, understand that what we say is so true it makes the entire world angry.
Only so few can handle this website and the truth that is placed here. In our last blog post, I truly liked what Jesse from Finland said. To paraphrase, he said, "What you say makes me uncomfortable, and this helps me know that is the truth."
The truth will offend. The truth will make people uncomfortable. The truth will make people want to kill you.
Of course, the truth will offend all of the Pharisees reading, and they will always be accusing me.
They want to constantly send me emails how I should do better but never do better themselves.
Witness 1 and I are operating a ministry touching all parts of the world at this point. Our real life ministry is about to reach 500 members, and I know it isn't going to stop. We have helped thousands upon thousands of people in poverty, and who knows how many we have helped with this website? It is endless.
This isn't to brag. We are to let our good works shine to the world. Moreover, Jesus says that we will know them by their fruits, and a bad tree cannot produce good fruit.
You Will Know Them by Their Fruits
15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17 Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them.
If we are wrong, Jesus Christ Himself will cut us down.
If our ministry wasn't good, it would be impossible to do the work we are doing. We are helping thousands upon thousands of people at this point, and the number will only grow. Our ministry bears good fruit because it is good. It bears repentance!
And, believe it or not, the only rude emails we receive are from the Pharisees. Even those who disagree are still kind - and in that way, maybe love covers it all. But the Pharisees cannot love, and their need to always be right and their self-righteousness is killing them.
Now, I wanted to go into more of a day in my life to clarify why I am running this ministry and the decisions I make each day.
A Day in the Life of Witness 2
Every day I must make a choice if I want to continue doing this. I want readers to understand that I pray every single day for Jesus Christ to guide me in all decisions I make, and readers may not understand them all.
When I wake up, the first thing I do is pray, and I look at my phone to the hundreds of messages I received over night. These messages are from social media and our real life ministry. Some are just saying "Good morning" but others are asking for money (We have a donation process). Some are emails from readers, and this is on top of emails from my real life jobs.
I immediately go to prayer and ask Jesus Christ for me to handle the day. This is not every day, but there is often some accusatory messages, and I ask God what to write.
He always tells me to be blunt and burn fire upon what they say with my words. This is the spiritual fire the two witnesses have, which people do not understand. Our words can destroy people. It is true, and I have seen it happen.
I have a system for handling all the messages, but it is hard. Witness 1 does help, and I don't want to say he doesn't, but I do the majority of the work, and he has acknowledged that. My love for him gives him a lot of grace. He has stepped it up though, and he is continuing to step it up. Readers, always pray for us.
On top of doing my actual real life jobs (yes I have several), running prayer meetings, calling people and praying for them, taking care of my family, writing these non-stop blog posts, and other things I will not mention, I have to deal with the Pharisees.
I don't mind working. I don't mind helping people. I love to email people and call people. I like helping the poor, and I can handle even the rude poor people.
The Pharisees are the problem.
They are the work of Satan. With everything beautiful I do, they must insult it in some way, shape, or form. They are always looking for my faults. Their goal is to ruin my day. They want me to feel insecure, and they want me to feel bad about my work.
Well this is a message to Satan and his Pharisees that it does not ultimately work, and my words will destroy you all with fire.
All the criticism you give me just makes me gain more power. The more the world hates me, the more powerful I become. In this humility, I am exalted.
Do you understand I know the world already hates me? I already know! And don't you know they will all hate me more? Don't you know I've been hated my whole life? God has prepared me for this!
But the true ones of Jesus Christ already love me. They do! They already follow me and take care of me.
So, then, Pharisees, what can you do? Because their love and prayers overpower you. They keep me going. Plus, your attempts to make them dislike me do not work because they are rooted in Jesus Christ.
So, this morning, in prayer, I learned a lesson.
Nobody reading is perfect, and I am not perfect. However, our true love through Jesus Christ covers our shortcomings, and we all have shortcomings.
No, this is not an excuse for unrighteousness or sin. No, this isn't an excuse for dangerous false doctrine. There is a time and place for loving rebuke.
This goes back to us following the narrow path, and few find it.
So, readers, I get it now! I get why Jesus was nice to the messed up ones, but He could not stand the Pharisees. No, I'm not Jesus, but the more I follow Him the more I understand it. I get it, Jesus, I get it!
The more you all follow Jesus Christ, you will get it, too. That is why you must push yourself to be a servant like Him, and if you don't know how to serve, email us and we will show you how.
I will take the quirky, crazy ones with some love in their hearts over the Pharisees any day! I think this is true of Jesus, too.
In a moment, I want to go back to Matthew 12, but before I do, here is my rendition of "A Day in the Life" -
A Day in the Life of Witness 2
I read the news again, oh boy
About a lucky man who got the mark.
And though the news was rather sad
Well, I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph
He blew his mind out in the war
He didn't notice that the agenda had changed.
A crowd of people stood and stared
They'd seen his face before
Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lord
I saw a film today, oh boy
The Iranian Army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away
But I just had to look
Having read the board.
I love to write my posts...
Woke up, fell out of bed
Had a prophecy in my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
And looking up, I noticed I was late
Found my coat and grabbed my phone
Made it to work in seconds flat
Found my way home and went to bed
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream
Witness 1 sings:
AHHHH-Ahhh-ahh-AHHHH
AHH-ah-AHHHHH-ah-AH-ah
AHHHH-Ahhh-ahh-AHHHH
AHH-ah-AHHHHH-ah-AH-ah
I read the news today, oh boy
Another false flag plastered on the news.
And though the holes in the story were small
We had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to say 9/11 is an inside job.
I love to turn..Witness 1... on
Haha : )
Matthew 12 - Conclusion
The other day I posted Matthew 12, and I asked people why I posted this and to email me. I really pray Jesus blesses the people who responded, and the truth is, I posted for multiple reasons, and they all go it right! So, here were some of the responses. If I missed anyone, it wasn't intentional. Please let me know, and I will edit this post and add it. I get a lot of emails, so it can be confusing:
Hey,
Did you post this to remind readers that Jesus is Lord essentially? Something tying in with that? I presume that will lead into another blog post.
The Pharisees are also prominent in this chapter as they are frequently accusing Jesus, and Jesus says they are blaspheming the Holy Spirit. Are you perhaps writing another post about differentiating from the people having a Pharisee vs Holy Spirit?
Let me know. Thank you for making me think about the scripture. I hope you're having a blessed night in the name of Jesus Christ.
Jake
You got it, Jake. Jesus is King of Kings, Lord of Lords! I love how you knew it would lead to a new blog post. I didn't even know that at the time.
Was it because you were receiving e-mails from legalists and accusatory people like the Pharisees?
- Temporary
Always - you got it!
I am shaking my head at the Trump 'most important moment in human history.'
Umm...would that not have been the Resurrection? This blasphemy is totally out of control.
Anyway, my guess is that all these unbelieving blasphemous people (the evil and adulterous generation) waiting for the 'sign' of the eclipse did not heed the warning that nothing happened, and now they have just forgotten that the eclipse happened. This ties to Trump's blasphemy because people cannot see who he really is, and they are, again, waiting for the 'sign' of Trump for things to 'happen' i.e. drain the swamp but refuse to see Warp Speed, the blasphemy, everything he did which is different to what he said. He did nothing he said he would do, and people are just bamboozled by BS and continue to make up excuses for him.
So I guess it is really showing that there is a remnant right now with true discernment and prophecy is being fulfilled.
I am seeing this a lot with my interactions with some of my readers. A lot of people proclaim Christ is King! But then terrify themselves with any psyop going and believe anything because they want to be perceived as 'awake' and they are just being taken advantage of disaster capitalists.
Witness 2 I have never seen such a catastrophic loss of discernment among people at the moment. They will believe anything.
The last line - EXACTLY! If only people read Scripture to ground themselves, but they refuse!
Good morning
It's a beautiful spring day here in Finland. The sun shines, sky is blue and birds are singing. Summer might finally come. Or we get more snow tomorrow, you can never tell cuz Finlands weather is kinda tricky.
I read the Matthew and prayed that God would reveal me the meaning.
And I got answer, thou I'm not sure if it is connected to message you are gonna publish in short time.
Anyways. In the last message, you asked about Christians in Finland, and I forgot to mention about this one event. We have this one christian politician called Päivi Räsänen. She has been charged with "hate crimes" against homosexuals, because she published pamphlet (for internal usage in church) about how Bible and God views homosexuality. She has also spoken about her views and what Bible says in radio shows. It is a sin, that should not surprise anyone even on these days. But our State prosecutor took it personally, and Päivi was charged with hate crimes against minorities, even she literally just quote the Holy Bible. The trial itself was a farce, prosecution lied and tried to fabricate false claims what she had done or sayd, twisting her words and trying to judge the Bible with spirit of modernity! In the end, she was aquitted of all charges, but that was not enough, State prosecutor ain't happy that two lower courts both have dropped the charges, so she is trying to take the case on our Supreme Court, that is the highest tier.
https://yle.fi/a/74-20069195 this is link for news about the case, it is in english so you don't have to try and learn finnish on run.
When I prayed for answer or explanation about the Matthew, this came into my mind. So I think Christ is wanting to remind everyone to prepaire for coming persecutions. Those arent so far on the future what many of us would like to believe. Please pray about this message if I got it right!
May Jesus bless both of you and your day.
I actually did not know any of this - thank you for letting me and readers know!
Just a guess on Matthew 12. Does it relate back to your Thesis 9? "Legalism is not Holiness". Pharisees were mad that the disciples picked grain, and that Jesus healed someone on the Sabbath. They followed the law but had no love in their heart.
- Harry
You got it!
Do you all see what reading Scripture does to connect us? It grounds us. Everyone was right - they just said it in their own way, and they got exactly what I was trying to say with Matthew 12. Honestly though, I wasn't saying it - Jesus Christ said it, and He wanted me to remind people to always go back to Scripture, and most of all, for us to love each other and not be like the Pharisees. Matthew 12 highlights some of the most important, fundamental teachings of Jesus Christ.
Finally, I wanted to end with a vision from Adrian:
I have been up since about 1 am and unable to go back to sleep. Test everything that follows, keep and use what you can ignore the rest.
When I was much younger at least 20 years ago I had a dream that I was on a busy street in a downtown area in a brightly light day time with store fronts, cars going buy, etc. Jesus literally came down from heaven and was granting people perfect understanding. Rather than accept salvation most people were killing themselves as fast as they could in whatever way was most expededient. Some deaths were painless most were gruesome. It was understood that people were eager to ensure an eternity in hell, rather than risk salvation. I had forgotten this dream until reading the blog post below.

Tired in Christ
I pray for blessings upon all who read this post and understand in Jesus's name. I pray for hearts to shift in readers in Jesus's name. I pray Adrian is re-energized in Jesus's name. I pray blessings upon all who bravely contribute to this blog and support us against all the haters of this world in Jesus's name! I pray fire upon my haters in Jesus's name! I pray this ministry grows and the truth is revealed to the whole world!!!!!!!

By the way, Jake just sent me this as I was wrapping up this song called "Love Love Love" as I was wrapping up my post. Perfection, and what a lovely song.
