In the previous podcast we learned about the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah that were infamously homosexual with pride. As a result of their lifestyle they were destroyed with fire and brimstone. Proverbs 16:18 “Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.” Therefore anyone participating in pride month does not realize that they are celebrating their own destruction and the down fall of spiritual Sodom (America). Revelations 18:3 “For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her [America’s] fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.” Verse 4: “And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” Verse 5: “For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.” Before it is too late, come out, not of the closet but from the spirit and the pride or Sodom!

Currently, pride month is being celebrated around the world. If we look into the origins of it, a search on the internet would lead us to the Stonewall riots that took place in New York City in the early mornings of June 28, 1969. Proverbs 28:7 “Whoso keepeth the law is a wise son: but he that is a companion of riotous men shameth his father.” Naturally now we should understand why the month of June was chosen; in June 1999 the former president Bill Clinton declared the anniversary of the riots as gay and lesbian pride month. Another event that is commemorated in this month was the first gay pride parade on June 28, 1970 in New York City.

The only known photograph taken during the first night of the riots.

However, within our search all over the internet the true origins of this pride did not come up. Recently we have uploaded the “Chronicles of Sodom” that explains the ancient people whose lifestyle would be simply put as homosexuality. We should not be ignorant of the Sodomites whom God used for an example to future generations, the world should know about Sodom. Since we all know that homosexuality is not something new, why the knowledge of this people that is readily available in the scriptures is not included in the promulgation of the celebration? Hopefully this podcast lesson will help us answer that question, and teach us the hidden mystery of Sodom.

Romans 13:11 “And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.” The calling to this truth is truly a blessing that many do not receive. But it does come with challenges that are unexpected by newcomers. Once you know the times to celebrate and are no longer asleep to the deception, family and friends might become a source of suffering. Those that are closer to salvation, understand that this walk doesn’t allow us to look back. 2nd Corinthians 5:14 “For the love of Christ constraineth [compel] us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:” Verse 15: “And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.” Thus we could not continue in the path to destruction but must walk now in newness of life.

Our love of Christ must be unwavering, we could never put anyone before him. Matthew 10:37 “He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.” Verse 38: “And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.” Verse 39: “He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.” We are required to give up that sinful lifestyle that we used to have, that we may receive eternal life. Don’t let any to diminish the worth of your soul for their carnal pleasures. The temporary affliction could never be compared to the glory you will receive. Although it might be a rude awakening, at least you finally understand the true meaning of love. Hopefully this lesson will encourage and teach you how to address some of the familiar issues or questions that might come.

On April 1st the custom of pulling pranks will be observed by many. But do you know the origin of this day or if it is only about pranks? This custom began in ancient Rome, as commoners will disguise themselves as nobility for devious hoaxes. Proverbs 26:19 “So is the man that deceiveth his neighbour, and saith, Am not I in sport [playing or joking] ?” This ancient saying is common today, at some point in your life you might have heard, I’m just joking. As we all know jokes and pranks could really go sour, that could haunt you for the rest of your life. There have been many pranks that have accidentally killed people, and some that caused sexual assault.

When it comes to holidays the bait has always been that it is about Christ. However most of the worldly holidays are not mentioned in the Bible, especially by name. Except for one, which is Easter and only in the King James Version of the Bible. This one time occurrence shows the masterful switch the Roman Catholic Church orchestrated against the holy days of God. The Passover a feast of liberation that was kept by Christ and the disciples was replaced by the Romans with an ancient Babylonian holiday that venerated the goddess Ishtar. The now forgotten history is that Christianity was outlawed in Rome, as they attempted later to reinvent themselves as accepting of Christ, it was a disguise to merge their pagan beliefs to the undying faith of Christ. 2nd Timothy 4:4 “And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.” To learn more about the real history behind Easter, check out the flyer: http://riseisrael.com/flyers/east-err.pdf

Oftentimes when someone newly has come into the truth they might be praying incorrectly. This is because coming from the world and the churches they have been trained to pray a certain idolatrous way. A manner in which almost every religion in this world worships. Therefore when presenting themselves, they are not accepted of God because it is not done with reverence towards him. Psalms 89:7 “God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be had in reverence of all them that are about him.” This is why the Most High has given us specific instructions of how we must pray properly. As prophecy dictated, we must follow the leader that he appointed as our head. Hosea 1:11 “Then shall the children of Judah and the children of Israel [Blacks, Hispanics, and Native Americans] be gathered together, and appoint themselves one head, and they shall come up out of the land: for great shall be the day of Jezreel.”

Jewish man praying incorrectly, since they do not believe in the Messiah nor understand the law, therefore they wear head coverings. Jewish woman praying incorrectly, she does not have her head covered. At times Jewish women do cover their heads during prayer, ironically it might be a wig instead of clothing. A few other things to notice, the menorah is not the lawful seven branch candlestick, also the custom of Sabbath blessings over the candles is not scriptural. It is no different from the pagan tradition of lighting candles to pray to idols. None of the holy men of the scriptures needed a prayer shawl to seek God! This tradition doesn’t come from the scriptures, it is actually an attempt to corrupt the law that commands all Israel to wear fringes and border of blue on their clothes. See, Numbers 15:38-41. The famous skull cap called the yarmulke and sometimes known as the kippah, which most of the time is an identifying marker of a Jewish person is not a requirement to wear at all, especially during prayer. The word yarmulke shows that its origins is not from Israel but Poland. As the true people of God we do not need to feel validated by copying the impostors.

As we return to the most High we must make sure that we do not imitate those Jewish traditions that do not exist in the scriptures. Titus 1:14 “Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.” There is no such thing as a prayer shawl for men to wear, nor are we required to wear a yarmulka (skull cap) to serve the most High God. Shalam (Peace)!

P.S. This class has been uploaded to our Radio where you could also listen to our spiritual and uplifting music!

Back in the days when recording on cassette tape, you would have an abrupt interruption because the tape would end. Then you had to flip it to the other side, and this is how you get a part 2. Similarly we spoke about the improvements and features of the 12T.CO Radio Page and now we will continue to next part the new Downloads Page. Before it was a long ugly list of titles that was updated monthly. Besides how beautiful the page looks now, the most notable thing is the current month, that contains four of the most recent podcasts. The cool cover image is clickable causing the lesson to immediately download to your device. In addition, below the images there is a brief description of the podcast and of course a “GET NOW!” download button. If you keep scrolling down you will see the current year. In this part of the page all the 12 months of the year will be listed and it gives you the option to download all the lessons for that current month in one click.

Current Month and Year view. The monthly menu view.

Maybe you noticed the cover image for “Prepare thy Soul…” contains the title “Golden Tape”. Be on the look out for this type of class since it will be all the old school classes, especially those recorded on cassette tapes. Now concerning this class, in the beginning there is a little surprise for you! Most High willing this lesson will teach all of us how to be like our king Christ who endured temptation like any other man. Hebrews 4:15 “For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.” Shalam (Peace)!

Now that our 20th Anniversary has newly been reached, we have uploaded our first class ever recorded on cassette tapes. Well, let’s first mention that it has been already a few months since the 12T.CO Radio page was updated. I know what you’re thinking, there is no STN post about it? That is due to the fact that other portions of the site have been renovated. For example, we have developed a brand new download page and if you took a look at our landing page you could see a lot of the projects that have been completed. Today we are finally getting the chance to explain the changes in the Radio and advertise this class to you. There are two parts to this class that cover how to fight temptation. Hopefully this lesson will edify your spirit and help those tempted. James 1:12 “Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.”

The menu options on the top right hand corner.

The first change you will notice on the Radio page is the dynamic background. Afterwards that the download button that was above the player has been removed. But don’t worry, an option for downloads is inside the new menu. Click on “GET” to open up the downloads page. If you click on “WHAT”, “WE”, and “DO”; a hidden message will show on the page. To close it, click on the menu button when it is orange. Below the player, we are keeping you informed of when the Radio page has been updated. Most High willing we intend to update it weekly. Finally the player itself was improved but we will leave those nerdy details out. Remember all podcast classes are first uploaded to the radio, there you could listen to them without having to worry about downloading or opening any app. Music will be added soon! Shalam (Peace)!

James 3:8 “But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.” One of the most harmful sayings that is widely believed is that ignorance is bliss. As a matter of fact, the cause of our calamity and oppression is due to our ignorance, especially in regards to our history. Since we lack knowledge of our past, mistakes are repeated. By not knowing who we are, we do not understand how we ended up in these horrible conditions, and the solutions. 1st Corinthians 12:1 “Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant.” Verse 2: “Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led [into slavery].”

Your oppressors have you believing that you are Gentiles, so that you will not receive the spiritual gifts. They even advertise yearly deadly poisonous lies, by hijacking Black History. Every year the children of Israel (so called Blacks, Hispanics, and Native Americans) are told to follow dumb things like religions (Black churches, Islam, Churchianity, etc..), idols (false gods), nationalities (Black, Afro American, Negro, etc.); that were given to you when you were led into captivity. Revelations 13:10 “He that leadeth into captivity ….”

In general what is promoted among our people is the glorification of ignorance. We must be careful that we do not lead ourselves into the path of ignorance. Proverbs 19:2 “Also, that the soul be without knowledge, it is not good; and he that hasteth with his feet sinneth.” Listen to today’s topic which explains how it is not good to be without knowledge.

2nd Timothy 4:4 “And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.” This prophecy spoken by the Apostle Paul has been fulfilled. Although this warning has been given to us many generations ago, our people follow fables that are destructive. Celebrations like Christmas and Three Kings Day have mythical characters that children are taught to believe in, causing them to turn unto false gods for gifts. These mythical characters are rooted on the pagan (false) gods of the Romans, then blended by the Roman Catholic Church.

Besides breaking the first commandment, Exodus 20:3 “Thou shalt have no other gods before me.”, these days promote white supremacy. By removing your own history and accomplishments, it is replaced by ideals that promulgates mental slavery of inferiority. The Christmas tradition of Santa Claus’ helpers originally presented as one or more enslaved demons forced to assist their captor is a perfect example. These chained and fire scorched demons were redeveloped as black skinned humans in the likeness of Moors who work as servants for Saint Nicholas.

In Spain, hundreds of teenagers wear blackface for Three Kings Day parade. The tradition has evolved to include Black slaves who the Spanish believe accompanied the kings. The Black slaves hand out gifts and candy to children in Alcoy and are viewed locally as similar to Santa’s elves.  According to the councilor for heritage and tourism, the tradition is that the Black slaves “use red ladders to climb up onto balconies and deliver presents to children.”

This is portrayed by the racist custom of blackface with Zwarte (black) Peter, a moor. The irony is that whites are portrayed as holy and good while black is looked upon as evil, is what is instilled. Zwarte Peter alludes to the disciple of Christ as being black and the Israelites, who once ruled Europe as the moors personifying evil.

The tradition of blackface in Spain is white supremacy, to erase the history of the Black Moors (Israelites) that once ruled.

But their white Germanic or Norse paganism represented by Santa Claus is good. During the three kings day celebration blackface is also common, since one of the wise men is depicted as a dark skinned Arabian.

While they mock our heritage right in front of our faces, we refuse to acknowledge who we are, and teach our children instead their destructive ways. Hopefully, the lesson presented to you will move you to apply the wisdom of the scriptures. 1st Timothy 4:7 “But refuse profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.” Shalam (Peace)!

Shalam (Peace) brothers and sisters:

Parents all over the United States are preparing for their children to return back to school. In a post related to education, it was discussed how resources are bleak in the public school system. An example of how financial resources are simply not enough, was shown recently in the “I Promise” school backed by Lebron James. What this brother is trying to achieve is truly commendable! He is offering at risk children all these free things: tuition, uniforms, bicycle with helmet, transportation, breakfast, lunch, snacks, food pantry, GED, and job placement services for parents. Any student that graduates and completes the criteria are guaranteed tuition to the University of Akron. However, according to recent news reports the school has failed to produce a single eighth grader who could pass the state math test in the past three years.

This was not expected of this Akron Public School, as a board member stated “I just think about all the resources that we’re providing … I’m just disappointed that I don’t think, it doesn’t appear like we’re seeing the kind of change that we would expect to see.” The Lebron James foundation has given up to 1.4 million each year for additional tutors and teachers in younger grades to lower class sizes. We must keep in mind that these children were already a year or two behind. Also that this is a public school, therefore it is plagued with the fundamental problems of the public educational system, that could not be fixed even with substantial amounts of resources. All across the country children are trapped in a system that could not be corrected.

Proverbs 4:1 “Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding.” Ultimately the success of any child depends on the parents. Those that choose to home-school their children have greater success because they begin without the constraints of a system that is meant to destroy their children. Looking at the legacy of this country who has criminalized, imprisoned, and executed Israelite (Black, Hispanic, and Native American) children; it shouldn’t shock anyone that the commendable efforts of Lebron James could not fix generational issues. If an abundance of resources is not able to do the job, what will? Therefore in this lesson we discuss what our forefathers did in ancient times. Which is a proven method, that even today we see the results in many child prodigies. Don’t forget to check out the link below for homeschooling resources.
