Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome everyone.
Welcome back to another episodeof the Pagan Preacher, the
Spiritual Journey.
Today I want to title thispodcast A Plea for Mother Earth.
Though I've mentioned this manytimes, I've spoken of it many
times, the Spirit just keepslaying on my heart very heavy.
(00:20):
To speak more about it BecauseI think a majority of us out
there aren't taking thingsseriously.
We aren't looking at the thingsaround us and realizing what is
happening.
Or we have some out there thatsee the things that are
happening but seem okay withthings because certain
(00:48):
prophecies have said thesethings were gonna happen
regardless.
So there's nothing that we cando, and it's it grieves, the
spirit, it grievesieves to seegood people with good intentions
(01:09):
not understanding, not havingwisdom and simply just not
connecting with the reality andtruth around us.
(01:30):
It's easier to just simplybelieve in a religion rather
than believing in what thefoundation of the religion
actually teaches.
For instance, the man you callJesus Christ.
He didn't ask to be called Lord.
He didn't ask to be calledanything other than his name.
(01:55):
He didn't ask for the thingsthat we are doing, the things he
told us to do most of us in oursociety don't even pay
attention to, and today we havereligions all over the world
that are doing just that.
(02:15):
But sometimes it's easier tojust follow a religion and not
actually study the foundationsof such religion.
We all wanna know, or should Isay that you know?
Christians want to know thatthey serve and follow the life
(02:38):
of Jesus, and the Bible onlyspeaks of three years of Jesus
life.
But there are pieces ofinformation, documents and proof
all over the world of where andwhat he did during the other 30
years of his life.
But a majority of people outthere don't want to hear it
(03:02):
because they're afraid that itmight obscure or take away from
what they believe, take awayfrom the indoctrination of what
they believed or what they havebelieved in.
I ask you right now do you wantthe, the truth?
Do you desire truth, even ifthat truth is something
(03:32):
different than what youcurrently believe?
That the truth may be in whatyou believe, but what you have
been led to believe is not thecomplete truth.
I hope that makes sense.
May Spirit actually open thatup and help make more sense if
(03:57):
it's confusing.
But Mother Earth, our planet,our home, it's not just in
jeopardy, we are in jeopardy.
Look around us.
How can we not care?
How can we not care thatspecies on this earth are just
dwindling away because they havenowhere to live and breathe and
(04:22):
to eat and breathe, entirespecies going extinct?
So we could build morebuildings and more houses and
places for our fancy cars, andmany of us at the same time
trying to say, well, we love theCreator, as we're abusing the
(04:44):
creation.
We can't keep going like this.
I believe in a Creator, maybedifferently than what you
believe in a Creator, but Ibelieve that when you honor a
creator, you must honor theircreation.
(05:07):
And we don't do that.
The majority of us don't dothat.
We don't even think about it.
And when we're told that weneed to do things to help our
planet, we shrug it off inthinking that it's just politics
, that someone's trying to getmore money or someone's trying
(05:29):
to take power from somebody, andI agree there is times when
that has happened.
But it doesn't take thescientists to show us these
things, because anybody that'sbeen around more than 20 years
can see the differences in ourenvironment, in our, in our
(05:54):
lands, in the Sun and theanimals around us, their
behaviors know.
Even your Bible speaks aboutthese things, the signs.
But what we don't understand isthis cycle has happened many
times before and it's happenedbecause we have followed the
(06:18):
same paths each and every time,never learning from our mistakes
, never learning from ourmistakes, never learning from
the people and the prophets andthe people put before us to
speak to you about the thingsthat were happening, that were
going to happen.
Because we've been soindoctrinated that, if we're not
(06:39):
a big motivational speaker or aa preacher with a long list of
degrees, or a philosopher orteacher that has many degrees,
spirit doesn't always useeducated minds.
(07:06):
Wisdom and education aredifferent.
Wisdom is often come frommistakes.
Wisdom is come from learningfrom those mistakes and wisdom
is what will save us and thisearth Wisdom, understanding and
(07:34):
then used with knowledge, we canchange things, but without the
wisdom first, without the wisdomand understanding to know the
time, to know when it's time,that, no matter level of
education, can ever changeanything.
(07:59):
Our country is over 200 yearsold, yet most of us aren't happy
here.
We say we're proud of thiscountry, but yet we know deep
down inside we have feelingsthat are very negative and we
(08:21):
want to put those things on theother parties that we don't vote
on.
We want to say it's their faultor it's their fault, when in
reality it is our fault.
It is our fault that we havesat back on the couch, watched
(08:41):
our news channel, watched thepoliticians speak, moan and
groan and complain to our familymembers and then merely move on
, allowing these people to dowhatever it is they chose to do,
because that's what we weresupposed to do Rather than being
the men and women, the freepeople Free people that would
(09:11):
actually do something, commit tosome type of action.
We see our countries in jeopardy.
We see our planet in jeopardy.
We can't save it all and I knowI'm kind of going here and
going there talking about a pleafor Mother Earth, but maybe
(09:33):
Spirit is trying to say thatmaybe we should just start with
our own country first and try toget other countries to follow
that we all need to acknowledgeour failures, that we all need
to acknowledge our failures, ourshortcomings of what we haven't
done and what we should havedone, when we have allowed
(10:02):
corporate leaders to poisonMother Earth, to poison the
people, all in the name ofprofit.
And yet we just sit back and wetalk about lawsuits and things
of that nature.
And where have we gone as apeople that used to rise up.
Rise up and say that if youcome against me and my family,
rest assured I am going to comeup against you.
Where are my people?
(10:24):
Where are those people thatwill stand up and say no more,
we don't want to live like this,no more.
We don't want to be taxedslaves anymore.
We don't want to be slaves,period anymore.
We don't want our planet to die.
(10:46):
We don't want all our resourcesto be used up and for our earth
to totally collapse in onitself, to burn up in a heat
wave of temperatures that arewhen you see things, when you
(11:06):
begin to have visions of thingsthat will come if there are not
changes.
You know it's sad that some ofus and I blame religion and
somewhat the indoctrination ofeducation, because they don't
teach what they really need to,but we believe we're the only
(11:30):
species in the universe that weare.
All there is Because a booksays that two people were
created and from those twopeople we come about that we
don't have an understanding, abroad enough mind to understand
(11:56):
that simply because it's in onebook Doesn't mean it only
happened one time In one place,with just one people.
There are things around youthat you can't phantom.
There's laws to this universe,into this life, that you can
(12:17):
never understand it.
But what we can understand iswe were given this beautiful
planet to live on and we weregiven a beautiful life to live.
We were allowed to have suchlife when it could have been
taken from all of us at anygiven time, and we've abused it,
(12:41):
we've misused it and we've usedit to give us comforts, to pad
our wallets and our purses, tomake us better than the
neighbors, all while the earthand life was dying around us.
(13:02):
The earth and life was dyingaround us.
And we get satisfied with a fewdonations here and there.
Or we see things at the zoowhere we go to different places
and say, well, we gave $50 hereand we did this and we're trying
to cut back on our plastic.
And you know, these things aregreat, but we have to do more,
(13:27):
because we have gotten to thepoint where now is the time.
It's either we do it now or wego extinct.
We are going to lose everythingthat we know.
We are going to lose everythingthat we know that the world as
(13:52):
we know it will change.
As we know it, earth itselfwill still be here, made into a
new creation, but most of uswon't be here and I know, even
though I speak right now, I canhear religious people saying
that well, it's prophesied thatthat's what happened and we have
(14:15):
to understand, because thesethings have happened before.
How do I want to honestly saythis.
You know I've never said thatin religion is lies.
What it is is somewhat truth.
(14:39):
Some truth mixed in with a lotof third and fourth Can be down
conversations.
It's the he said, she said,stuff that gets blurred and
tainted and changed, and notthat anybody's truly meaning to
(15:00):
tell a lie or tell things asthey aren't, but they get
confused and they don't tellthem as they are.
We are going to see things inthe next few years, if it even
takes that long.
We're going to see things thatwill change your entire mindset.
(15:22):
They will challenge everyreligious notion within your
mind and heart.
People will try to tell youthat, well, this is the devil,
this is Satan trying to confuse.
You Know right now that that isis the devil.
This is Satan trying to confuse.
You know right now that that isnot the case.
Now, what you will see is thetruth.
What you will see is the truthcoming to you trying to save
(15:51):
what's left of our species inthis planet.
They're already trying to workwith us now.
I know this in my heart and Ispeak to anyone that's out there
(16:12):
.
You know, if you have thenotion to help, then do what you
can to help.
Be that voice.
Be that voice on the radio orthe podcast.
Or, if you're a radio host,allow someone that has the voice
to be on your radio, to be onyour channel, to be on your
(16:33):
YouTube page, to be help inwhatever way that you can have
that person on your broadcast.
Do an interview with thatperson on your YouTube channel
or merely speak about what thatperson is speaking of.
Too many of us will fall back on.
(16:54):
Well, what is their educationbackground?
Do they know what they'retalking about?
Remember what I said spirit isabout wisdom.
It's about understanding.
It's not education.
Education comes very close toindoctrination, because
(17:19):
education, if we're not careful,is only that which someone else
.
How do I want to say it again?
We know most of us that aresomewhat educated Know that our
history, the real history, isnot written in the history books
(17:39):
as it truly happened, butwriters tried to make things
nicer, cleaner, to fit a betternarrative for future generations
so they don't know the horrible, corrupt things that our
ancestors did, when it's vitalthat we do know.
(18:02):
It's vital that we know thethings that our ancestors did so
we don't do them again.
We are in jeopardy, our planetis in jeopardy and I know that I
have gone kind of all over theplace in this Spirit trying to
give me the utterance, trying togive me of what exactly to
(18:24):
speak, because I've said manytimes, when I sit down to do a
broadcast, I have nothingprepared.
I have nothing prepared.
I usually sit for five or tenminutes and meditate on what
spirit has for me to speak andthen I speak, and I speak
(18:47):
according to what I feel andwhat I hear, not in an audible
voice, but in a voice that issurrounding, as in a.
I really can't even explain it.
Those of you out there thatunderstand understand and those
(19:07):
that do not.
I hope that someday you do.
The truth comes in a revelation.
It comes in an epiphany.
It doesn't always come from abook or a school.
In a revelation, it comes in anepiphany.
It doesn't always come from abook or a school or a teacher.
It comes from a spiritual poke.
It might be just you walkingdown the street and you notice
(19:28):
something and the Spirit speaksto you internally and all of a
sudden you understand somethingthat you've never understood
before.
That's Spirit, because evenyour Bible says that we need no
man to teach us, because theSpirit teaches us all things.
(19:49):
When we are open to Spirit,there's a spiritual world all
around us.
If we're open to it, if we cantap into it, the spirit is
trying to tell us right now thatwe got to do something.
You know what?
We may not change everything.
(20:09):
We may not even stop what is tocome.
Maybe we don't.
I firmly believe we will if wedo the things that we're told to
do.
But what if we don't?
Or should I say, what if wedidn't?
At least we're following andwe're doing what we're supposed
(20:30):
to do.
We're doing what's right.
We're doing what's right forour children and our
grandchildren.
We want them to live in the bestworld that they can live in.
I want them to see thecreatures and the plants and the
life that I've seen, that I'vebeen able to witness, and to be
(20:52):
around and hold.
I want them to be able toexplore, go hiking, go fishing,
go whatever it is, boating,whatever it is that you feel
like, you know that connects youwith nature, connects you with
the world, but that part, thatworld that I'm talking about,
(21:13):
isn't going to exist.
How many creatures have alreadygone extinct?
And it go extinct every day.
All you have to do is google itand it'll tell you.
All kinds of different speciesjust drop off and and most of
them died because they have nowhere, they have no habitat
(21:40):
because we cut all the treesdown, we built too many
buildings and houses andcorporate buildings, warehouses,
roads.
You're going to say, well, wehave to have these things.
No, we don't.
We don't have to have thesethings.
No, we don't, we don't have tohave these things.
(22:01):
We want these things.
They make our life easier.
And the greedy corporateleaders, those out there that
are all about profit and don'tcare about this planet, they
don't care about you or yourchildren.
They will destroy everything,and if we sit back and just
(22:22):
simply let them do it, they willdo it.
It is up to us to do more thanjust speak that there is a time
for action.
I'm not telling you to getviolent, but I'm telling you To
commit your voice to action.
(22:43):
Protest, speak up, march, dowhat you have to do, in whatever
level of Resistance, what youhave to do in whatever level of
(23:07):
resistance, trying to find thewhite words, as sometimes it's
hard, because even spirit, whenit, you know, gets to really
moving and you see that it'slike spirit telling you to rise
up.
Rise up and be the people thatyou are.
Stop letting these people, stopletting this 1% rule the other
99%, destroying your lives,destroying your planet,
(23:31):
destroying the future of yourchildren and your grandchildren,
while we sit and just moan andgroan about it in our workplaces
, at the kitchen table, whereverit may be.
Voting is not enough.
Voting, in fact.
I'm not going to say it doesnothing, but it does very little
(23:51):
in today's world.
At one time it did, but it doesvery little in today's world.
At one time it did.
But in today's world, thepolitical arena has changed so
much and it's gone so corruptthat unless we start doing
things and commit our voice toaction there is, it's hopeless
(24:12):
unless we commit ourselves, andthat's why I wanted to.
I wanted to title this broadcast.
It's hopeless unless we commitourselves, and that's why I
wanted to title this broadcast APlea for Mother Earth.
But it's more than that it's aplea for Mother Earth and life.
It's a plea for creation To letus live, to let our future
(24:44):
children live and live healthy,live a good life.
Yes, it may be a different lifethat we live hopefully it'll be
a better life but that we wantthem to be happy and to see the
things that were created for usand not just see the destruction
(25:05):
of such creation around us.
Take some time and, justwherever you are or whenever you
can, just ask yourself what canI do?
What can I truly do to commitmy voice to action?
(25:28):
What can I do?
Thank you everybody.
Please share this podcast andbe blessed and blessed be.
Welcome everyone.
Welcome back to another episodeof the Pagan Preacher, the

I hope that makes sense.
May Spirit actually open thatup and help make more sense if

But Mother Earth, our planet,our home, it's not just in

Look around us.
How can we not care?
How can we not care thatspecies on this earth are just

People will try to tell youthat, well, this is the devil,
this is Satan trying to confuse.
You Know right now that that isis the devil.
This is Satan trying to confuse.
You know right now that that isnot the case.
Now, what you will see is thetruth.
What you will see is the truthcoming to you trying to save
(15:51):
what's left of our species inthis planet.
They're already trying to workwith us now.
I know this in my heart and Ispeak to anyone that's out there
(16:12):
.
You know, if you have thenotion to help, then do what you
can to help.
Be that voice.
Be that voice on the radio orthe podcast.
Or, if you're a radio host,allow someone that has the voice
to be on your radio, to be onyour channel, to be on your
(16:33):
YouTube page, to be help inwhatever way that you can have
that person on your broadcast.
Do an interview with thatperson on your YouTube channel
or merely speak about what thatperson is speaking of.
Too many of us will fall back on.
(16:54):
Well, what is their educationbackground?
Do they know what they'retalking about?
Remember what I said spirit isabout wisdom.
It's about understanding.
It's not education.
Education comes very close toindoctrination, because
(17:19):
education, if we're not careful,is only that which someone else
.
How do I want to say it again?
We know most of us that aresomewhat educated Know that our
history, the real history, isnot written in the history books
(17:39):
as it truly happened, butwriters tried to make things
nicer, cleaner, to fit a betternarrative for future generations
so they don't know the horrible, corrupt things that our
ancestors did, when it's vitalthat we do know.
(18:02):
It's vital that we know thethings that our ancestors did so
we don't do them again.
We are in jeopardy, our planetis in jeopardy and I know that I
have gone kind of all over theplace in this Spirit trying to
give me the utterance, trying togive me of what exactly to
(18:24):
speak, because I've said manytimes, when I sit down to do a
broadcast, I have nothingprepared.
I have nothing prepared.
I usually sit for five or tenminutes and meditate on what
spirit has for me to speak andthen I speak, and I speak
(18:47):
according to what I feel andwhat I hear, not in an audible
voice, but in a voice that issurrounding, as in a.
I really can't even explain it.
Those of you out there thatunderstand understand and those
(19:07):
that do not.
I hope that someday you do.
The truth comes in a revelation.
It comes in an epiphany.
It doesn't always come from abook or a school.
In a revelation, it comes in anepiphany.
It doesn't always come from abook or a school or a teacher.
It comes from a spiritual poke.
It might be just you walkingdown the street and you notice
(19:28):
something and the Spirit speaksto you internally and all of a
sudden you understand somethingthat you've never understood
before.
That's Spirit, because evenyour Bible says that we need no
man to teach us, because theSpirit teaches us all things.
(19:49):
When we are open to Spirit,there's a spiritual world all
around us.
If we're open to it, if we cantap into it, the spirit is
trying to tell us right now thatwe got to do something.
You know what?
We may not change everything.
(20:09):
We may not even stop what is tocome.
Maybe we don't.
I firmly believe we will if wedo the things that we're told to
do.
But what if we don't?
Or should I say, what if wedidn't?
At least we're following andwe're doing what we're supposed
(20:30):
to do.
We're doing what's right.
We're doing what's right forour children and our
grandchildren.
We want them to live in the bestworld that they can live in.
I want them to see thecreatures and the plants and the
life that I've seen, that I'vebeen able to witness, and to be
(20:52):
around and hold.
I want them to be able toexplore, go hiking, go fishing,
go whatever it is, boating,whatever it is that you feel
like, you know that connects youwith nature, connects you with
the world, but that part, thatworld that I'm talking about,
(21:13):
isn't going to exist.
How many creatures have alreadygone extinct?
And it go extinct every day.
All you have to do is google itand it'll tell you.
All kinds of different speciesjust drop off and and most of
them died because they have nowhere, they have no habitat
(21:40):
because we cut all the treesdown, we built too many
buildings and houses andcorporate buildings, warehouses,
roads.
You're going to say, well, wehave to have these things.
No, we don't.
We don't have to have thesethings.
No, we don't, we don't have tohave these things.
(22:01):
We want these things.
They make our life easier.
And the greedy corporateleaders, those out there that
are all about profit and don'tcare about this planet, they
don't care about you or yourchildren.
They will destroy everything,and if we sit back and just
(22:22):
simply let them do it, they willdo it.
It is up to us to do more thanjust speak that there is a time
for action.
I'm not telling you to getviolent, but I'm telling you To
commit your voice to action.
(22:43):
Protest, speak up, march, dowhat you have to do, in whatever
level of Resistance, what youhave to do in whatever level of
(23:07):
resistance, trying to find thewhite words, as sometimes it's
hard, because even spirit, whenit, you know, gets to really
moving and you see that it'slike spirit telling you to rise
up.
Rise up and be the people thatyou are.
Stop letting these people, stopletting this 1% rule the other
99%, destroying your lives,destroying your planet,
(23:31):
destroying the future of yourchildren and your grandchildren,
while we sit and just moan andgroan about it in our workplaces
, at the kitchen table, whereverit may be.
Voting is not enough.
Voting, in fact.
I'm not going to say it doesnothing, but it does very little
(23:51):
in today's world.
At one time it did, but it doesvery little in today's world.
At one time it did.
But in today's world, thepolitical arena has changed so
much and it's gone so corruptthat unless we start doing
things and commit our voice toaction there is, it's hopeless
(24:12):
unless we commit ourselves, andthat's why I wanted to.
I wanted to title this broadcast.
It's hopeless unless we commitourselves, and that's why I
wanted to title this broadcast APlea for Mother Earth.
But it's more than that it's aplea for Mother Earth and life.
It's a plea for creation To letus live, to let our future
(24:44):
children live and live healthy,live a good life.
Yes, it may be a different lifethat we live hopefully it'll be
a better life but that we wantthem to be happy and to see the
things that were created for usand not just see the destruction
(25:05):
of such creation around us.
Take some time and, justwherever you are or whenever you
can, just ask yourself what canI do?
What can I truly do to commitmy voice to action?
(25:28):
What can I do?
Thank you everybody.
