Scripture References Found – Proverbs 3, James 1, Mark 9, John 6, 2 Timothy 2, 1 Peter 3, and a little taste of Acts 19, and Hebrews 12
Note – (1) I touched on a couple of teaching experiments that the Lord did with me. (A) The 24 hours without saying “I” “Me” or “My” – especially along with embellishment. (B) The “SNAP!” of the Holy Spirit, that brought me out of the heavy sleepiness of a generic sermon, to “hear” the spirits of doubt seeds within the prayer. And to pay more attention to the “spirit” of words of prayer, and other conversations, rather than only hearing the actual words. (C) The “Doctrine Of The But-t-t-t-t-t-ssss” was something the Spirit brought to me a few years ago, to categorize my excuses, and other people’s excuses, too, to go our own ways. LOL ; )
I was just beginning to differentiate between my unbelief that causes me to stumble to the temptations within me, for the sins that crouch at my door. And, much to the chagrin of others?! The unbelief and doubt of those who had been around me. A very lonely process! It was during a break of this taping of Balcony Talk, on December 15, 2023, that I realized the SDA Land religious zealots and religious authorities, along with the spirit of the church militant, were trying to force my conscience to their will. They were insisting that I go against my conscience to accept their Neo/Primitive Theologies, whose only roots are the seminaries. Very little actual Bible comes through their opinions and, many of the Pastors and religious authorities I have dealt with for the last seven years, have not recognized much of the Scriptures that I have quoted in our discussions? Once the floodgates opened, I began demanding to be interrogated in front of witnesses. That shut them up! Go figure? The ever present gaslight tool of religious shunning came next.

“The Shaking” = The Sifting Of The Sieve
During our break on this taping, I was talking to Nathan about all that I had endured through the week, when he wrote the words on the back of the sticky note-pad I photographed. I have used it for the featured image of this episode.
The post image is of Dakota in the alley, around the time the Lord found us.
