Yeah, this is the average pastor that you'll see in the average church in America today. I mean, you might not be as obvious as wearing the. The the flag of the Rainbow Riders on his. On his Raymond. But I mean, might as well, right? It's it's like those guys in the news media who might as well be wearing a Democrat party button. You know what I'm talking about. You know, the people who pretend to be objective journalists in the media, I won't mention their names because they might sue me. But I'm telling you, these pastors are no different. They're cowards. Instead of saying you know what? Yeah. You know what? Jesus was taller. And Jesus forgave people for messing up, but he held people to a standard and then just say go do whatever the hell you want. And I love you. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Sheep Get Sheared Podcast I’m your host Austin Creed my friends. Today, we're gonna return to discussing. In. Faith. Church spirituality. We're gonna return to all of that because I think it's something that's very important to people's overall well-being. And you know what? I'll be totally honest with you. A lot of times in my I'm not that old. I'll be totally honest with you. I'm not that old. 24 I'm not some of you. If you're younger, maybe if you're like, 16, you'll think I'm an old man. I get that. When I was 16, I thought 25 or 2425 was old as hell. I'll be honest. But you know what? When it comes down to church today. Anybody relate to the fact that if you look at the Church of? The Catholic Church, back in the day, you look at how the church has changed since World War Two. You look at how. Ever since World War Two, and I know it a lot of times and when someone says World War Two, you immediately you immediately fall asleep and you're immediately uninterested because World War Two boring. Bombing of Hiroshima. Boring. And. Surrender of the Japanese and the Nazis. Boring. I've heard it a million times. But you know what's interesting is when you look at the history of the church before the war and after up until even today, you realize that the church is not. The. Same because the men never truly came back in the church, and echoes of that are reflected across the church. And to this day, all I have to do. Is look at. The church and see how many women are in the church versus how many men are in the church. It's not that hard when you really look at it piece by piece and you break it down and you realize, wait a minute, there are more and more single women in the church who are, quote, looking for good men. But then you realize, wait a minute. How old are they? What's their story? What's the background? They don't give you that. Women pastors are becoming more and more normalized. We don't even even the male pastors. I'm I'm actually curious and you can tell me in the comments below, gentlemen, how many of you have been in church and there's a male pastor and I don't care if he has the biggest Bushies beard and his beards better than mine and everything else. But he's got a high voice. You gotta talk like this. And he talks. Really. Non threatening? Yeah. Does anybody else know what I'm talking about? I don't know what it is, but I go inside so many different churches across the multiple places I've lived. When I was in the military and I was out of the military, I noticed that a lot of the men in the church, they try to come across as non threatening as possible. And there is this over emphasis on love and acceptance instead of the fire and the brimstone, the rules, the accountability, the camaraderie, the standards. They're supposed to be upheld. There's none of that found there. It's only focusing on love, forgiveness, acceptance, affirming. And all that. Am I wrong? I don't think so. When I look at the church 0 emasculated because men like myself, we're not welcome because we're we're ohh, we're toxic. We won't. People accountable men and women. We're we're not what people might call Meek. They might remember that verse and and Matthew where it says the meek shall inherit the earth. Well, actually I did some research. My friends. I looked up the Hebrew translation. Because. Those of you who don't know me and they don't know anything about biblical bachelors or anything else, I'm a very big fan of the Old Testament. Because there's a lot of fire, brimstone wrath, and what I pictured God being a lot of people like this version of God in the New Testament where ohh. He's kind and accepting and loving and tolerant. Yeah. You know what that's kind of. Half of what God is I don't see. I don't like that. That doesn't resonate with me. The part that resonates with me is Leviticus. Deuteronomy, numbers, Exodus where God says. Look, man, I'm laying the law down, and if you don't like it, well, guess what? Here's a plague. Hey, man, you're getting conquered. Hey, here. You're going, then? Getting sold into slavery. That's the kind of guy that I like. Where God says, you know what, I'm not taking crap from people. I'd lay down law. Me. That's leadership. I don't like the how people only emphasize the part of God loves everybody, and tolerating and accepting is that part true? Yes, it is true. What about the other half? The half or half that people don't like? That's not as polite and politically correct. It makes you feel good. I'm not here. To make people. Feel good? I'm here to make people feel relieved. Feel understood. Thing. Ohh, I get it now. This all makes sense. You know why a lot of men, especially young men and older men. Are not checking in in church answered because they've woken up to the fact that the a lot of it's a scam. For money #1 scam to get women married #2 and #3, it's to get you. Domesticated in plain English. So going back to the meek thing I was talking. About. And the Old Testament. So it was written in Hebrew. Most of the old most of the Talmud and the Torah, the 12 books of Moses and the the prayers of the fathers, which is Judaism. Maybe you don't understand a lot of Judaism. That's OK, I won't. Go into detail, but when it comes down to it, a lot of Jews, they the rabbis, teach about the Talmud, the 12 books of Moses and the prayers. Of. The fathers and. In the Old Testament, in the Hebrew, the word meat comes from bearing a heavy burden. For those of us who are burdened, who carry others on our backs, we will inherit the Earth, not the weak, not the humble, not the, the shy, subservient, meek, mean, subservient, shy, like nerdy. I think even Family Guy mean adjust that this idea that like if you're weak that that's a virtue. No, it's not a virtue fact. It's ridiculous and stupid. Let's say that's like a a rabbit is morally superior to a wolf. No rabbit just can't hurt anybody. It doesn't make him moral. He doesn't have a choice. All my friends, I believe that the church is largely failed and the reason I believe that is because we can look around and we can see that. When people say that God needs to return to the countries, anybody hear other conservatives discuss that. What they're talking about is the rules that whether it's Islam, Judaism, Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, all major religions have a code of conduct that must be adhered to for everything else to make sense and everything else to be lived by. That's what they're talking about that used to be part of not the law, but a part of the communities people lived in. Now we don't have that. Instead we have that feels good. Do it. Do whatever the hell you want. No accountability for anybody unless they're paying for everything. And this gentleman right here is gonna break this down, and we're gonna listen to him, and I invite you to share your thoughts, comments, concerns, all of it. I love it. I respond to a lot of the comments that come on this channel because I love to hear your stories. And I would love for you to contribute. Oh. By further ado, let's hear what? He has to say. Church. This have failed us because when we're looking for information, we found culture. When you advertise, typically you advertise the best part. The best part of Christianity is not blessings and content. Posture. It's accountability. We write. To preach about goodness so we can shout, but we're never accountable. My friends that I love, he mentioned that I want to pause it right here. I also my my audio is kind of sucky, so I'm going to get my headphones real quick. My friends, you know what's hilarious to me? We look at the fact that posturing is so huge. In the world today, does anybody else understand that the posturing the ohh I go to church like I go out and I do my own thing and like I it's one thing to say, hey, I do my own thing, take it or leave it another to say, hey, I'm pretending to be. He this this pinnacle, this paragon of virtue, when I'm doing the exact opposite to me, that's a that's abhorrent and disgusting, but a lot of people, they do that a lot of normies, they do that and they don't even realize it. When we finally leave, we feel nothing what they preach about. I don't know. We teach other people to get married, but refrained from the information that will keep up marriage. They try to stay back from talking about sex. We try to stay back from talking about changing. We try to stay back from talking about dopamine and investing so many different things that can help a marriage. But we tell us to get married because we want to look right in. The eyes of the church. That is right on the money. That is fantastic. I couldn't have said it better myself. That's perfect. That is exactly what's going on. People are doing it for a posturing appearances. They're not doing it cause they actually quote really want to most men get married because they want a acceptance, be a stake in the community. See, they want access to. Sex and a lot of those things can get ripped from you at any moment in time. Not that they will, but they can. And a lot of men finger that out called bait and switch. A lot of men realize this very quickly on and the men who are going through a divorce or have been divorced or in a sexless marriage, they'll tell you this stuff. We stray away from preaching the non breadwinning sermons on Sunday when we have the most attention and we know the most audience will be there. We always preach ties, but we never talked about investment strategies. This dude is hitting. This dude is firing on all cylinders. I'm loving this. How you can get out of your situation with tithing and giving to other areas of your life outside of just saving money. We tell people that they need to read our Bibles and then preach sermons that are very shallow to cover up for the fact that we don't know our Bibles either. Yours too savage. Yo, I would love to have an interview with this guy. I would love to talk with this man. This dude is great. We misconstrued judgment for correction. Listen, the church should be a one stop shop a lot of times we are finding other most motivational people and those people are amazing. But what I'm starting to understand is those motivational people do believe in Christ also. But they have found their own past. To find out things that are not being taught in the church. See, that's exactly what I'm see. That's why this show. This This is why you're listening to me right now. If I thought the church was doing all the things he's describing, we wouldn't be having that. We would not need to have this conversation. He would have already even had. The problem is a lot of men, especially women too, but men especially, they don't want to preach this message because they're afraid of being controversial. They're afraid to to call things the way it is because they don't want to be persecuted. They don't want people to challenge them. They don't want to be perceived as toxic, controversial. Not mainstream. They are afraid of it. Now I am. Is that? Yeah, I'm controversial. Yeah, I have hot takes of people aren't gonna, like, do I care? No. Ohh hell. No, I don't care at all, in fact. If you don't have haters, if you're not doing something that other people. Are like whoa. What are you doing then? You ain't doing Jack. You're doing what everybody else is doing and you're failing. The average person's a failure. All you gotta do is look at the fact that they are cog in the wheel. They ain't doing anything they don't like themselves. They don't like their existence, but yet they pretend like they do cause they get drunk on the weekend, they get smoke weed or they they all go out there and try to hook up with chicks and they think that they're living their dream life. No, they're just trying to not feel the sadness every day of their life. That's what they're trying to do. I'm trying to not feel things cause the only thing they feel is disappointment and sadness and embarrassment. You don't like it? I'm sorry, man. This is you came to the right show. I keep things real over here. Most people, they do those things, they try to go to church because they wanna not feel like they're feeling God or God has failed them. They're sick of it and they're trying to feel better about themselves. And that's part of the reason why Karl Marx said that religion was an opium, a painkiller. Now, I don't fully agree with him, but I see why he would say that. A lot of times it can end up that way. When you remove the code of conduct, the laws, the community aspect of it that's supposed to be holistic, not just what you like, which is cherry picking. And we see that in almost every church in the West. They pick what they like, what they think is going to benefit themselves, the people who patronize their church, give them money. And what they like, not what's actually supposed to be taught? This dude spiring off on all cylinders, and I think he's 100% right. Let's. Let him continue. We have to start putting this stuff in the church. You can't call the church a hospital. We don't have IV. If I'm not getting information at the church, it's going to cause me to get it to somewhere else. And if we look like the world, I'm not coming. What's the point of coming to church if you? Bingo. Look like me. I mean, does anybody relate to that to just me? Wow, this dude is really, really spot on. I say this all in love. We gotta do better as a church so that people can be inspired to come here, because if I come here and I don't feel anything, even when I come through the door outside of just the Holy Ghost, if I don't feel anything, I don't feel like I'm gonna earn something. I don't feel like that. You're gonna help fix my life. Then all I did was walk into a building where people that are just like me. We're supposed to be different in the church. You are welcome. I'm sorry if this offended people, but I'm just preaching the truth to you. Oh, I'm not sorry. He's offending anybody he spent. He fired on all cylinders. Shout out to that guy. That is fantastic. He's 100% right. He's 100% right and the problem is a lot of people, they don't want to hear that. They want to hear that. Ohh my church is good. My church is great. I don't have any problems. God, don't fix all the issues. Because when you when you don't end up with a church that he's talking about and you have another cherry picking church, you went up in places like this with pastors literally wearing rainbows. On their on, like their their scarf. They're raymonds or whatever they're called, and they're talking about how God's love gloves all you need. They're basically giving a sermon on the level of The Beatles song. Of all you need is love. But they're pretending like it's some. Deep theological discussion. No one isn't. You're just passing the buck. You don't want to tell people, hey, you're sinning. Hey, you're doing this wrong. Fix it. Get right with God. No. You just want to say ohh. God loves everybody. Don't worry, guys. It's love. You know, Love Is All you need because of the end of the day. Love is a drug. You know how many songs there are about, but your love is my drug? Love Is All you need. Love is sufficient. Love is everything. I mean, bro, it's a drug. If you are addicted to love, you're a drug addict in one way or the other. You're a druggie. I mean, what's the difference? You're you're a hedonist. You're chasing a high. Whether it's produced by something you smoke or something that you just signal off in your brain by doing certain behaviors, it's no different. Anyways, let's see what this guy's got to say. I'm probably gonna want to stop him halfway through, but let's hear it. We we make this so complicated and and the message we really need to hear is God's love. That's what Jesus spent his entire ministry talking about. He didn't have anything to say about sexual orientation or gender identity. Ohh. Bring in the sexual identity and everything within. What, 15 seconds? Ohh. Fantastic. Wow, we're off to a really good start because everybody knows that, you know, Jesus definitely didn't care about sexuality after all. He wanted, you know, he wanted John to lay with Matthew and he wanted, you know, all these dudes. Just feel good about themselves because you know people think that love is just feeling good about yourself. You know, there's this thing called constructive love correctional love, you know, tough love. Well, where's that in the discussion? Ohh no, that's toxic masculinity. You can't do that. Largely because they didn't think about it in that way. But if they did, I bet he would have been inviting folks to the table. Oh, I'm sure that Jesus would have been loved to be surrounded by the modern Rainbow Rider Club. Ohh yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh yeah. I'm really sure about that. Because that's the example of Jesus that we have that throughout his life and ministry, what he did was he said, hey, you want to sit down at the table together and hear that God loves you. You want to hear about a world in which everybody is treated with the dignity and respect that they deserve because that's what I'm preaching. And he did that in his life, as I reminded everyone on Friday night with folks who everyone else in society was saying, these people are not worthy of God's love. And Jesus said ohh yeah, yes they are. Everyone is a child of God. Everyone is created with inherent worth and dignity and everyone has a place at the table. Yeah, this is the average pastor that you'll see in the average church in America today. I mean, you might not be as obvious as wearing the. The the flag of the Rainbow Riders on his. On his Raymond. But I mean, might as well, right? It's it's like those guys in the news media who might as well be wearing a Democrat party button. You know what I'm talking about. You know, the people who pretend to be objective journalists in the media, I won't mention their names because they might sue me. But I'm telling you, these pastors are no different. They're cowards. Instead of saying you know what? Yeah. You know what? Jesus was taller. And Jesus forgave people for messing up, but he helped people to a standard and then just say go do whatever the hell you want. And I love you and say that. Not once did anybody cite me. One time when he said something like that. No, he didn't. No, he didn't tell people they're going to hell and they're evil, but he certainly didn't say ohh. I continue to do whatever the hell you want cause I love you. Didn't say that. But again, this is what you're seeing in the church today. This is what passes for leadership. This is what passes for a pastor today. Not. Not the guy that was on that guy who was doing his podcast. I don't know who he was. He was fantastic. That guy would actually like a decent pastor that I might actually listen to that this other dude who's picking this rubbish about how. Ohh, yeah. Just like God loves everybody. And, like, do whatever you want. And if you're if you're not straight, do what you want and God doesn't care. Ohh yeah right gentleman, if that wasn't bad enough. I know that was bad, trust me. This is gonna be even. Worse, if you think that's even possible. And he worse, this woman right here want not the one on the left, but the one on the right with the microphone. She is a woman pasta. Came a pastor after getting a divorce from her husband. Hmm, yes, you heard me right. She's a divorced woman. We came a pastor. OK. We're gonna listen to her. We're going to see how much of this do you hear in the modern nature? How much of this do you hear on social media and that drove you away from religion, maybe to a little bit of spirituality or maybe you just laughed and you never looked back. Let's listen to this. How much of this week? In stomach I would not have walked through a divorce. I would never have had to get a job at Bloomingdale's, $13.00 an hour. I did not think God was anywhere in that cause. Why would he ever let me go from six figures? I lost a $500,000 house. I lost my 2 Mercedes, lost a navigator. My kids think anything they wanted to move him back in with my mother and my father. House and a little bitty bedroom. With my two kids downstairs, couldn't even buy their schooling. Why don't you get a divorce, ma'am? I I hope you mentioned this because. Thing tells me that that's kind of important. You're painting yourself as this victim. This, this Princess, warrior, single mother who will overcame all adversity when it seems like you volunteered to to to leave and you're probably alienating the father from the kids. Considering you took the kids and left, which. Is. Parental alienation. By all definition, I I don't hear you talking about. 9050 custody. I don't hear you talk. All I hear is the black and miles in your voice and you're starting to sound like a transformer. But OK, continue. And happen to get a job doing. It did not make sense then, but today if I would have walked through a divorce, I would not be doing what I'm doing. If I would have walked through a divorce, I would have to go get a job. And people sitting in my chair became you. I started learning how to minister because I didn't know how to do makeup. I learned how to speak to their spirit. I was drawn. I was forced. Gentleman, whenever you hear a woman say that she's a spiritual, what she means is she's a skeezer. Let's continue. It was pulled out of me because of the mistakes that I had made. He took my mistakes and made it a message. Never in a million years that I think I would be pastoring. Ohh, this woman's voice dude. OK, first of all, look at this woman on the left. How she's reacting to all this. She's like. Yes, girl. Preach. Yes. This type of liberation garbage. Let me tell you something. This is feminist theology right here. Encouraging women to get a divorce. And to leave. Because you know what? That's good because you might become a pastor you might become. Leader, just leave your husband. You don't say why? Because we can guarantee you she didn't leave him cause he was in a in a user, in a piece of garbage. Cause if he was, she would have mentioned that to make herself look more like a victim and more like a Princess warrior. You know the image she's actively trying to craft for herself. And also secondly, I can't help but notice that. You failed to mention the fact. That. All your kids felt about all this. And. That seems kind of important considering statistically speaking, that women who do what you do, their kids end up in jail or on drugs. Just saying, I know you may not like that. Well, too bad. They'll argue with reality until you can play by Thanos. Reality stone. You can't say a damn thing to me about this, cause it's facts. Look it up. You don't believe me? Look it up for yourself. Never in a million years, and I think my two sons would be in ministry with me. Ohh boy, I guarantee you those two kids are the biggest Gump pastors you this side of the Mississippi River. Never in a million years did I think I would take over my dad and Mom's church when my daddy didn't even believe in women preach. Boy, sounds like nails on a chalkboard. Like she's been screaming like a heartbeat for so long, and her voice finally gave out. Listen to me where you are is exactly where you're supposed to be. Don't waste the message. Stop caring what people think about you and tell it. Tell your story. Tell your testimony. Well, I don't have a testimony yet. The mere fact that you are here this morning is enough for you to get on your feet. And give God a praise that you ain't dead, which means he ain't done. Ohh. Ohh. OK, great. OK, congratulations you, Princess warrior. I, I I love how. I mean, what am I supposed to say to a thing like that? Ohh, you're a great Princess, warrior. You're you're. You're an example. No, you're not an example. Actually, you're a statistic. A statistic saying that most women will leave their their marriages if the marriage ends. They're the ones who file it. They're the ones who leave their husbands and their husbands are left. Paying the bill, putting the bill and. Blamed for it all the way out. The fact that she didn't mention how it ended means it was probably her fault, because if it wasn't, she would have mentioned it. I mean, that's how it works, right? They all have the same script he was, he was abusive. He was mean. He was an alcoholic. He wasn't nice. He was. He was mean to me. He he was verbally abusive, emotionally toxic. You know, this whole. You know the whole thing. The whole thing is a crock of garbage, whole thing and they file the TDR or the, sorry, they file the TRO. That the temporary restraining order. Then they take the kids away, blah, blah. The dudes in the comments section know what I'm talking about. They been through a divorce court. I know divorced lawyers. I mean, my friends, this is what I'm talking about. This is what's infiltrating the church. Do you think that because your, your girlfriend or your wife or whoever think that because she goes? To church and. Know she pretends to be all innocent and everything that she doesn't know about this stuff. Really. Really. Come on. This is what I'm talking about, guys. This is the emasculation that we're talking about on the show today. Because we're are the men saying, wait a minute. This is ridiculous. What would happen if a man went up there and said, yeah, I left my Jezebel of a wife because she was a feminist and a skeezer, and I found out she lied to me about the body count. So I left her and I had the wherewithal to raise above everything. And I take care of my kids and blah blah. I don't. I love my kids, but not, you know, my ex-wife because she crazy. Ohh. I can guarantee you people would have lost their mind. Hands on him. Ohh yeah. When a woman comes out there and she says I'm a Princess warrior who left? My husband don't specify why, because it probably wouldn't benefit her story. Ohh, she's a she's an example. Yeah, the problem. Yeah. Good. I'm glad you see it. My friends, I don't enjoy saying this. I wish I could tell you that the church is great. Pastors are wonderful things. Never been better, but we've gone through from crusaders. To absolute complete corruption and feminism in church today. Ohh yeah, all you gotta do is look at the fact that communism that we have gone from crusaders to communists running the church. And we need to embrace this reality and until unless you find a church where that gentleman was talking about where it's an all-encompassing lifestyle and people actually live what they're talking about, they don't just say one thing and then do the complete opposite. Gentleman, when I talk about being a biblical bachelor, my my whole philosophy based on the book that you see on the screen to your. My left probably you're right, my friends. We need to understand this. I don't just say that make money. I actually believe what I wrote. I plan on being a surrogate for a guy who has his surrogate children. I don't plan on being married. I don't plan on doing any of these things, cause it doesn't benefit me to do. That. I don't plan on doing it. My friends let me know what you think. Let me know how this has impacted you, even if you're not religious and you see what's going on and you see how the culture has devolved in front of your eyes, please let me know. I'd love to hear it. Other men would like to know they're not alone. I can guarantee you you're not alone. You're nowhere near as alone as you think you are. It might seem like it cause you're being gas lit on social media and in person. You're not alone, man. My friends, you take care of yourselves. Think for yourself. Always do research. I'm always here for you. Answer questions to talk in the comments. I love it. My friend, you take care of yourselves. I'm out of here. Peace.
