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. (insert eye roll emoji here)
“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.

Scripture References Found – 1 Corinthians 2, 1 Thessalonians 5, 2 John 1, Matthew 7, Psalm 23
Note – excuse my disheveled appearance? I was distracted running late and had just come in from walking Dakota. During the week of facing Facebook Bible-Babble-Land’s Church Militant’s Hungry Pagan Lions and Merciless Gladiators, the truth finally came out of the ordained by SDA Land Pastor’s mouth, of the church that the Lord had led me to to seek refuge, spiritual guidance, and hopefully a hand up. It was the same church where my parents were married in November of 1961, and where I was dedicated to the Lord as a baby, around a year after my birth.
On a public social media platform, the Pastor of this church at the time I was a homeless widow in distress, had informed me the previous week, that, after I told them that I had one year in which to get the heck out of Madison TN, before a man whom my testimony had jailed for a year would be getting out of jail. The Church Board had had a secret meeting to determine that I needed no kindness, nor justice, nor charity, nor knowledge of God, for I was nothing more than a drug addict. That deserved nothing less than death? It took awhile to get over that one?! I mean, I get it. It is very typical, and expected. But, it still was a hard pill to swallow. Because the people who knew better, said nothing in my defense? And, only the Lord pulled me out of the arena. I was a spiritually beaten and bloody mess!
To date 03/19/2024, only one person has apologized and only one person has accepted my apology for the way in which I rejected their theologies. And that’s out of 197 Facebook friends, and countless SDA Land Church members from around the world. Or, in the words of Ellen White. “Not one in twenty.”
Face It And Taste It! …. Keep it going.
The Spirit within, determines our destination.

Scripture References Found – Matthew 12, Hebrews 6, 1 Corinthians 12, 1 Timothy 4, 1 John 4, John 9, and 2 Kings 6
This was a little chat on December 9, 2023, of what we had been witnessing for the previous few months. Vee was still wobbly-spiritually speaking- from the ordeal of the denial of the written word, by the very people who should have known what “The Seventh-day Adventist Church is experiencing a sifting right now. Do not accept any false doctrines.” (Ted Wilson CEO). However, I did not know that nobody had taught them? Nobody had told them? Or, they just didn’t want to know. One of the weirdest gaslights is denial.
Mom Sayings – Sometimes God puts obstacles in our way to get us to move in a different direction.
The Feature Picture is a copy of a real photograph of Ellen White, taken a couple of years before her death, As you can clearly see she was a human being who was “under the same curse of God” old age, death, and decay, just like the rest of us. (Romans 8)
Spirit stopped the video again….
Taped – December 09, 2023
-
Scripture References Found – Hebrews 12, Judges 7, 1 Timothy 1, Matthew 7
Note – I still had a couple toes stuck in the muck o’ wild and crazy religion, and was still holding out hope. So, I was still quoting-pleadingly EGW. I may or may not quote her again? I just don’t know, now that there has been a paradigm shift into a complete refocus. We will see…..
Additional Note – I was barely hanging onto my sobriety, by a thread o’ faith, at the time of this taping on 12/09/2023. Reason for the meme…. Spirit stopped the video. Praise the Lord!
Momma calls Preachers, but God calls Pastors…. Keep it goin’

Note – We went zoop down the rabbit hole of fornication, adultery, and marriage in the eyes of the LORD.

Other Scripture References Found – Matthew 13, John 16, Amos 9, 1 Corinthians 5, 1 Timothy 1, and Matthew 11
Note – I had just endured a two hour phone interrogation by a gentleman who carries the spirit of the church militant within him. I do not believe the man, himself, meant for malice. It is what I call a “conditioning” that is done by and through within any religious world that believes their religious organization affiliation is THE RELIGION. It’s a kinda of “fight or flight” instinct for the God or gods the individual serves. Somebody comes after my Lord or any new in the faith baby sheep? And you’ll have a HOT Momma Bear on yo hands. So, I understand the why of religious zealots. However, the two hour ordeal, plus countless others coming at me through Facebook PM, text, and phone calls. Not to mention the open public forum of Facebook, preceding and following the two hour phone call a day before our taping? Left me rattled for a few weeks I still had one more open in the public arena beat down by the Hungry Pagan Lions and Merciless Gladiators of Facebook Bible-Babble-Land Religion, before the Lord took me out of the arena to rest awhile. Thank You, Christ Jesus!
Additional Note – I was still holding out hope for my childhood religion, and had a couple-three toes still stuck in the muck. I wasn’t fully released until March 17, 2024. Oddly enough, what would have been my husband, Stephen Leslie Tidwell, 64th birthday. Had he not died of an overdose of fentanyl laced heroin on the bathroom floor beside me om February 13, 2014. Thank You, my Lord. I wish there were emojis on a computer? Because, I’d be putting them right here. : )
Please forgive my difficulty in capturing my thoughts during this taping on 12/09/2023, as I stumbled over my words? I was kinda in spiritual shell-shock. There will most likely be more mumble-jumble of words, as I learn from the Lord the tools to navigate through the last days, and most volatile time in earth’s history. Spiritually speaking. Thank you. Vee
Unified Confusion – keep it goin’
P. S. The featured picture is probably corn. I found it on Facebook a while back, and kept it because I liked the one still standing. He wasn’t goin’ down without a fight! ; )

I may edit a short paragraph at another time? But, I felt like a picture paints a thousand words. So…
