The Perpetual Jubilee of the Kingdom
Principle: The Kingdom’s Economy Is a Perpetual Jubilee When Jesus stood in Nazareth and read Isaiah 61 — “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me… to proclaim good news to the poor… to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord” — He wasn’t being poetic. He was nationalizing mercy. He was declaring that the Continue reading

Acts 15 and the Liberation of the Body: A Gospel for the Excluded
Opening – Recognition: The Misread That Became a Weapon For centuries, the church has swung a verse like a hammer at the LGBTQ+ community — a text stripped from its time, its tongue, and its tenderness. But context is covenant. What was written to liberate the exploited has been twisted to enslave the free. Acts Continue reading

When the Poor Rise, the Altars Fall
Revolution doesn’t start in a think tank — it starts in a grocery line when the card runs dry. It starts in a break room where somebody whispers I can’t do this anymore. It starts when the people who built the machine realize they’ll never be allowed to own it. France had its Third Estate, Continue reading

The MAGA Confederacy
How the Old Empire Found Wi-Fi They didn’t lose the war — they just changed uniforms. The plantation class traded gray coats for pinstripes. The overseers became sheriffs.

But when Obama was elected, Fox started screaming about the “Socialist threat” and the “godless Muslim in the White House.” I began tuning in to Glenn Beck, who claimed to Continue reading

The Church Forgot Its Base
The working class once formed the living backbone of the church — farmers, laborers, single mothers, service workers, the people who built and maintained the world. But over time, the establishment church traded solidarity for spectacle. It moved from the neighborhood to the suburb, from the table to the stage, from the people to the Continue reading

The Law That Kills vs. The Grace That Restores
Charlie Kirk’s “Perfect Law” Meets Christ’s Perfect Love 1. The Scene They Both Quote Charlie Kirk invoked Leviticus 18 and 20, where the ancient law declares: “If a man lies with a man as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death.” He called this “God’s Continue reading

Pentecost for the poor
Principle: The Spirit Confirms What Is True Divine power still exists. It has not retreated from the earth — it has withdrawn from hypocrisy. God does not inhabit corruption. He confirms truth. Heaven’s power has never been random. It falls where faith meets justice, where love meets need. From the beginning, this was the covenant: Continue reading
