Subscriber Update: What's New About It?
Heart, Narrative, and the Kingdom
Acts 15 and the Jerusalem Council
This week’s saved takes on both the Four Negations of Jerusalem and the challenging fact that the New Testament of Jesus Christ is a matter of the heart. 🤟

I’m making a renewed effort at 15 minutes on the Proverbs and Red letters every weekday morning on X. You can listen later on the StarFall podcast:
Thank You
Thank you for the support.
I mean that. I’m still here, through the nightmare and fire, still writing, still building, refusing to be erased. The daily reality is quiet pain. This is not the story I want to be living. This is not the cross I want to bear. This is not what I believe covenant means.
But who doesn’t see the collapse? Who stands free from the spirit of the times? Who hasn’t had their house assaulted by the divider and accuser? If this is the parable Jesus is telling me, who am I to argue?
Living the long obedience of life in the Valley of the Shadow means that you are not the one in control. You cannot choose the narrative. No matter your office, you are not responsible for the actions of others.
But you might still have to pick up the pieces and clean the mess.
My Cat Threw Up
Friday morning. All over my bed. With me in it.
So, I changed her food and washed the sheets.
The world is loud right now, and the question under the noise is trust. It’s not just “what happened?” It is “how do you know, and why.” The gatekeepers are losing their rank. The power of digital tools is flowing like quicksilver. The era of post-Americana is generating faster than any one of us can keep up.
Geopolitics and the Trust Problem
On X, AI-generated, anime-style “news” shorts in near real time are pushing the limits of narrative warfare. It’s often not safe-for-work. It’s intentionally provocative. But it’s also a live case study: when information becomes cinematic, violent, and emotionally optimized, you can feel informed while being steered.
The talking image trains the nervous system, not just the mind. When war heats up and the feed fills with synthetic content, the real question is not whether it looks true, but whether it keeps you glued to the screen.
Pam Bondi indeed did brush off the Epstein questioning by pointing to the stock market highs.
But Then
No matter how much the elite obfuscate, the swell of AI empowered gamers in their moms’ basement are doing more than just make Batman vs Neo videos. They’re making the released files searchable and using machine learning to decode the gaps and then some as the HHS DOGE team open sourced the largest Medicaid dataset in department history.
In Case You Missed It
The U.S. Department of Justice already released millions of pages from the Epstein Files, fulfilling the statutory requirement under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, roughly 3.5 million pages, including communications, photos, and other materials. Names of over 300 prominent individuals appear in the released materials — but inclusion in the files is less important than what the files say they did.
There is intense social-media chatter and some fringe claims that the released files contain evidence of satanic rituals, cannibalism, demon worship, or similar extraordinary activities. But all that is clearly established from the released material as corroborated by multiple sources is that Epstein engaged in long-term child sex trafficking, that law enforcement collected extensive multimedia evidence during his investigations, and that many powerful people appear in connection with him through emails, sightings, flight logs, or other records without established wrongdoing.
Six wealthy individuals are “likely implicated” in the trafficking network. Multiple members of Congress have pushed for broader disclosure and less redaction. Critics argue the Department of Justice redacted too much and delayed release, while survivors’ advocates continue to demand deeper transparency and accountability.
Separating Fact from Rumor
Trump publicly said that a change in power in Iran “would be the best thing that could happen,” while confirming a second U.S. aircraft carrier group deployment to the region.
S.A.V.E. U.S.
The House of Representatives passed the SAVE Act (proof of citizenship requirements to vote in federal elections), and word is the Senate has the 50 votes needed to get it signed into law. The fight is not the sentiment or inconvenience. This is the defining moment of citizenship as a body politic. Who counts as “the people” in practice?
“Papers please,” is not going to fix rigged voting machines. As the Real ID era enters, stage left, open-front empathy and closed-front enforcement comes put all of us in a brave, new age where freedom is still a matter of the story you are allowed to tell.
An open border is not a border. I’m not trying to be polemical. I’m trying to do geometry.
Crypto G.E.N.I.U.S.
Bitcoin has been in a sharp drawdown, roughly halved from last fall’s record high near $126,000, with broader market stress across digital currency wild west. It’s not as if silver has done much better in the public eye. I’m not here to pretend I know what’s going on. But I do know that the line between legislation, leverage unwinds, and global monetary warfare is not on the nightly news radar.
When price collapses happen, it changes who can buy, who must sell, and who gets to write the next rules. With President Trump pressing for passage of crypto-focused legislation, U.S. is actively wrestling with stablecoin policy and market structure, ensuring that crypto is no longer a side-game in the CBDC dreamscape.
Munich Ado about Civilization
At Munich, Rubio framed a “MAGA foreign policy” direction with explicit civilizational language: skepticism toward mass migration, a critique of free trade/outsourcing and deindustrialization, and a national-interest posture that is less sentimental about rules-based global order.
Whether you like Rubio or not, the Western world is on the edge of war with itself over borders, identity, production, and coherence. “Civilizational erasure” is just the corporate extension of the deeper issues I linked earlier.
The dispute is story. The stakes are definition.
TransMuskism
Meanwhile, Elon is continuing to press xAI forward while brushing aside standalone safety-team framing across his companies, which is feeding the broader debate about AI governance and risk. But more disturbing than his excitement about language modeling’s capacity to build itself on Truth is his belief that language itself will become obsolete once we all install Neuralink in our heads.
You don’t have to be a sci-fi addict to see what’s at stake. I’m all for helping the paralyzed, and what he has achieved so far is stunning. But language replaced by direct interface changes not just persuasion, but privacy, spiritual formation and the meaning of consent.
If the algorithm runs your feed now….
Mexico’s Open Border
The Mexican Senate has voted to allow U.S. forces to accompany Mexican forces on raids on fentanyl labs. The “Donroe” doctrine is in full effect.
Here is What is True
I’m grateful for you. I’m still writing. I’m still building. A lot of days look quiet because reconstruction is quiet. I’m not here to entertain you with panic or novelty. I’m here to stay clean in my heart, tell the truth as I see it, and keep moving forward under the banner of the risen King, Jesus Christ. Thank you for the support.
What God has made can never be destroyed (erased). He is the Creator. You are deeply loved because He is love. Thanks you for all He does through you. You are beautifully made.
Answer,..Mercy... beginning and end! Beautiful how this came together full circle, weaved through and through your teaching... very much like the Bible in the many parables and stories written and taught by our LORD. You are truly blessed and as Logos stated, YOU are loved, because He is love,,, it shines through you, He shines through you <3
