Shalom Yada,
It has been way too long since I have corresponded...
First of all, HalleluYAH!!! His Ruwach Draws us to one another, and Empowers us in this "dirty (adamah)" material realm. All Respect and Admiration deserves to be directed to Yahowah, and what He is doing in the world through His Family!!!
I hope you were able to Energize and Refresh on the Shabbat. I greatly value your efforts and time in presenting YAH's Words to those who are able to take the time to consider them.
I listened to your BTR program archive from Friday night, and I couldn't help but reach out to you.
I have been enriched and strengthened by your Shattering Myths program on GCN and your Shabbat broadcasts on BTR. (As well as the books you have written. I'm still reading the new editions.) I am sure I speak for many when I say that there are not many places to turn to where you get real mental stimulation these days without the "religious or political hype, twisted interpretations, and agenda lead media coverage."
Yahowah's message needs to be spread to a broader audience, and I would love to help in promoting the show to syndicated radio networks if I can. (not sure how to begin or who to call, but I am willing to help out if there are any possible opportunities in my area, or any numbers I can call nation(world)wide to get things moving forward.)
I have called-in and commented to the BTR show back in 2009, and haven't been an active participant much since then. It has taken a great deal of time, and patience to read yours and KP's works. And especially to rid myself of "paul", and his half-truths. I feel I have forgotten more than I have retained along the way, and still get confused, especially with the "NT" writings, sometimes thinking "did paul or Yahowsha say that?" unfortunately.
I have been told by many family members and friends, "You need to find people to talk to who are like you..." (that means people who care to take the time to listen to what YHWH has to say - because they don't want to...) My mom and dad get steaming mad when I bring up anything that shakes their faith in "jesus", or even wosre when I speak out against paul (which I find sadly funny, seeing as I can talk against their god and christ, and they say I'm mislead, and need prayer... but when I talk against paul, I'm on the freeway to hell, and 'better watch out what I'm getting involved in'.) I understand that it takes a while for some people to see the truth, but first of all they have to be looking, and unfortunately some never will. (anyway... they will be praying for me)
Well honestly, I have to say, you and I don't agree on everything, and I do not feel that either one of us are right or wrong about our differences of observation. I feel it is a matter of relationship, and examination, which leads to interpretation, involving intellectual stimulation, which gives us our opinion and active participation, and that leads to our Trust and Reliance, that is acted out in our daily lives. If yours is a little bit different than mine, that's fine. As long as we're trying to walk the same line, and focusing on the same target.
I would like to be more involved with the GCN and BTR programs. I'm sure there are many similar people like me who benefit from the conversations that are presented on your shows, but don't get involved themselves for any number of reasons.
I have finally gotten rid of the Babylonian, Political, Religious, Pauline, Societal, and Familial influences in my life. Which has cost me a great deal of my family and friends intimacy and respect. That doesn't bother me all that much, fortunately they all still "love me" no matter what. And most of my broader family are supportive of my 'opinions' (or at least of me having them).
I have much more that I could say about my Journey with YAH up until this point in time (It has been an outrageous road), and what I feel is on the horizon of my future Journey over the next 15 to 20 (or less) years with my Abba. I hope I can share some of this with you one day.
I was going to call in about a question I had when reading ITG, but figured it may be better for you to answer via email. In Volume II - His Name - page 27. You quote Yirema'Yahu 23:13 - I have searched the DSS and all the possible Hebrew translations that I could find, and did not see the "ha" in 'ba ha ba'al'. I don't have Logo's software, but I do have an extensive archive of online tools. All the writings I see have 'ba ba'al'. Not a big deal, but in the ITG "ha" is listed in your transliteration. I would normally not be such a stickler, but when I am presenting this information to my loved ones and strangers, I want to make sure what I am referring them to is wholly accurate (to the best of our knowledge).
Also, I love what the
www.yhwh-qra.com site has done with the DSS and the amplified translations. However, I can not stand to listen to the computerized voice recordings of YHWH's Word, or the readings of QP or even Psalm 119 in that monotone 'com-pu-ter vo-i-ce'.
So I have decided to record myself reading ITG, YY, QP, etc... for my own benefit. I find it helps me to retain information if I can listen to it more than once, in a clearly communicated way, and especially when I can read along and hear it read aloud. I used to benefit a great deal from listening to the Yada Yah recordings you and KP did on what is now the 'old YY'. I always wished you had done more chapters.
If someone else could benefit from the live recordings I am putting together, or if someone else is working on recordings of their own and wants to share so that I and others can benefit, please let me know. I don't read through the material as good as you or KP, but I think it sounds better than the unemotional monotone computer. I can send you a sample of the ITG - Intro, if you'd like.
Well, I apologize for the book, but I could have written volumes more. Keep up the good work, and remember that you are reaching out to so many more people than can reach back out to you with calls and comments.
I'm sure it's draining because on a network like GCN you deal with some irrational conspiracy junkies that have nothing better to do than send negative feedback to anyone who will read their rubbish.
I think more people listen and contemplate what you are sharing without calling in or emailing comments than you are aware of. You are planting seeds that people have to nurture and care for in order for them to grow. It takes time, we both know that, and the majority of people are too concerned with the monotony of their daily lives to take the time to investigate the information that is available concerning moving beyond the monotony.
But as they see the landscape change, over the next few years, I think more and more (even if it is 1 out of every 100,000) will come to consider and benefit from what has been presented in YAH's Towrah, Prophets, and Writings.
Thank you for all the hours you have put in and the criticism you take, for sharing the most important message in the Universe. May Yahowah Bless you, and always Protect you and your loved ones, and His Family throughout the world.
Peace and Love to you,
DM
