Is this a joke?! 😅 April Fools’ Day, which has Western origins, has historically been a day for practical jokes, like flashing, because Ben Franklin wasn’t always so serious. 🥴 But during the period of enslavement there was more to it. Was it also for escaping from slavery and skinning racists? Check the video out and let’s see… 👀 🚨Check the comments for resources and book(ing) info! #aprilfools #blackhistory #slavery #ushistory #jokes #prank #dei #antiracism #publicspeaking

Do Cats have Souls? If you take in what some religions say animals do not have souls and man is king, man may be intelligent and achieve great things although this does not constitute a soul. I can speak from living with cats I must say they are more giving and passionate and when you investigate their loving faces and eyes you can feel their soul, they have emotions, feelings, fear just like us, long memories too. They may not fear death like some of us do, when my Spot was dying from aids you could feel his love and in a way a soul presence, he showed the same stresses as we do, he knew his time was up when I had to make that final decision. If the soul is near where the heart is and moves on shortly after death why not animals one night, I felt my cat jump on the bed when there was no cat in the room, I guess when passing the soul and spirit stays where it is wanted and the happy memory of where they were they choose to be, to let us know they are here. Even if man is made in god’s creation and superior of this land as creatures of the earth, why should the heavens not be full of singing birds and animals of all kinds whose spirits roam within the living giving guidance and a presence of tranquillity knowledge space and travel with no boundaries. According to an article on this subject it stated that : Most interpreters of the Bible assume that man’s likeness to God and animals’ subservience to man implies that animals have the "breath of life," nephesh chay in Hebrew (Genesis 1:30), but not an immortal soul in the same sense as man’s. One thing is definite we will all die some day and when that day comes we will know if animals are with us in the afterlife with a soul which I believe they do have, I feel their being and their unconditional love every day and see how they help people in time of need and seem to understand us better than we understand them, I am convinced they have a soul and spirit.

Shalom again, 1st day howdy how There are many ways to describe life and us fellow human beings. Here is one such viewpoint: In reality, there happens to be the 'what is, and yet also, the what ought to be!' With us humans, there are those who see things for how and what they are, yet live their lives according to how it should be. There are those who enjoy how things are, while rejecting the how they will surely become and surely how they shall eternally be! https://lnkd.in/gEMVy4Cm

Important video... for curious minds! Have you heard of the "Evil Eye"? Many of us have heard this term, often referring to a person's jealousy or unkind wish for another. Most Religious and Spiritual traditions identify this as an energy that one needs to protect oneself from. Using everything from amulets, strings, charms, jewelry (inscribed or not), to full out rituals (sometimes exorcisms) - which happen to this day. This video is to explain the concept of the evil eye and to use a sincere understanding of Conscious Creation, in line with our inherent Shakti (Powers). Shakti Powers represent the Divine Feminine energies within each man and woman, and what many have not consciously created - may the timing of Mother's Day (yesterday) help us remember the strength of Love and Compassion (often associated with the best "feminine"qualities to help heal and protect ourselves as well as those around us... regardless of their intentions and wishes. Pay attention to your own. Hope this video is helpful! https://lnkd.in/gRCgSfyb

In this episode, we delve into the prophetic visions of Revelation 17 and the timeless narratives of Genesis. Witness the unveiling of the "great whore" of Babylon, a symbol of idolatry and corruption, as described by the angel who guided John. This episode also revisits the creation story, the fall of man, and the tale of Cain and Abel, illustrating humanity's descent from paradise to pandemonium. Explore the rise of false religious systems, the seduction of nations, and the eventual judgment upon Babylon. Learn about the intertwining destinies of divine and demonic forces, and the ultimate triumph of the Lamb over the beast. Through historical and biblical analysis, we uncover the spiritual significance of Babylon and its impact on the world, both past and present. Join us as we reflect on the lessons of faith, obedience, and the eternal struggle between good and evil. This episode provides a profound understanding of biblical prophecy and its relevance to our lives today.
