Dedication to The Truth

[matthewott]

I just thought I would share this with you all. I did something this weekend that I never thought I would have EVER done...

Most of you here know me to be a musician, and therefor music is a large part of my life. I have many musical influences, but I can point to one musical group in particular who has had the single greatest influence on my musical aspirations...RUSH. I always enjoyed their non-commercial sound and lyrics. However, while cleaning up my extensive media library (boy did that take a while), I was listening to a lot of RUSH and I found myself really paying attention to what the lyrics were saying in each and every song I listened to, and I was liking the messages less and less...I guess I was subliminally seeking scriptural truth in their music, starting with the song Jacob's Ladder. I could not find ANYTHING I could agree with. As my discouragement continued to spiral downward, a picture of the vocalist/bassist Geddy Lee flashed in my mind, and all I could think was, "Man, what a shnoz!" So I did a quick search on him and viola! I come to find out his real name is Gary Lee WEINRIB! My heart sank, and soon after my harddrive became almost 6 GB "lighter". I had their ENTIRE discography, key word being "had". That was a painful sacrifice, but one that needed to be made. It's not the first, and is certainly not the last. The pervasiveness of the jew KNOWS NO BOUNDS, and I am afraid that before it's all said and done, my shortcomings in recognizing jewish treachery will come with more and more painful consequences. Yahweh PLEASE forgive my sinful nature...Amen.

Sometimes it just a matter of our not paying very close attention to many things, that's not unusual. At least you did get rid of the stuff. Unfortunately, the music world is just like the rest of the "entertainment" and "media" world. It is all wholly and completely controlled. If anyone gets any stage space, face time, recording time, etc then you can bet they have been "approved".

[matthewott]

What makes it even worse, if I may delve a little deeper, is that almost every aspect of the band itself had a PROFOUND impact on one most tenuous periods in my life, my teen years. In a time when the full realization of the hypocrisy of this engineered society was hitting me like a ton of bricks, Rush stood for everything I wanted to be; "successful" musicians who weren't following "mainstream" music and lyrical society. I had even considered myself a "metalhead" at the time, and Rush didn't even fit my "indentifiable" genre. My writing, musically and lyrically, have deep roots in the stylings of Rush. Certain emotions and memories will trigger sound bites of Rush songs in my head! AARGH! One good thing I can say, is this jew headed band helped develop an attitude that has brought me to DSL CI. Now this jew has fulfilled a purpose put in motion by Yahweh himself, and I no longer need his services.

Brother Matt:

Wow, can I relate to you! While Rush was never an influence on me musically, I've had my share of heroes to reconsider. My main guys growing up were the Beatles, Paul Simon, Harry Nilsson and to a lesser extent the Tin-Pan Alley songwriters and the blues guitarists, both black and white. The Jewish predominance in the area of writing, production and marketing should be obvious to anyone remotely close to the music business.

It is so hard to let go of what you have embedded in your heart, mind and soul. I have talked about my music career struggles in other threads, I think you have too. What we used to think of as innocuous lyrics and adolescent musical release now takes on a whole new meaning as we can see the power of this old music and the destructive effect it has had on us. It is not merely "entertainment" but something much deeper and more insidious. Many of the musicians making the music had no idea that they were being used by the Talmudists to mold the minds of the young and to fulfill their Protocols.

I have spent a lifetime studying popular music, collecting LP's and CD's, been utterly infatuated with the whole process. But as each day goes by and I pray for Yahweh's guidance and forgiveness the old begins to fall away. I thank him for the gifts he has given and already my music is beginning to move in the direction of service to our Father. I know that the dedication and the excitement we both have felt as musicians can continue- but now with a new focus- as musician warriors for Yahweh.

Matt, I am proud of you buddy. There is much more you will probably find you will have to give up as time goes on. Oh well. Obviously it wasn't all that important to begin with.

Being in CI has taught me why Yahshua told his apostles to basically take the close on their backs. Too much weighs us down.

YHWH bless!

[matthewott]

Due to these tumultuous times and the fact that my studio has become basically a "studio" apt., I can't make any respectable recordings and present worthwhile material yet. I also find that all of my current musical endeavors involve feeding the family, although I've volunteered a helping hand Saturdays @ 12 noon for a small CI praise and worship sing along on the Christogenea Teamspeak server. I am working on a paper entitled "Spirit vs. Soul" which is taking it's fair share of "personal music time", but a worthwhile sacrifice. I am also preparing myself for the possibility of taking a trip to the big house for 60 to 90 for the criminal act of driving on a suspended license, so I am spending time brushing up on the UCC and contract law, because I am not paying for some kike to railroad me. With that being said, let's hope and pray that I'm in a position to start getting some new CI music produced in the next few months!

And thank you, my brothers, for the kind words. The fellowship here more than fills the void that only briefly existed after purging that music from my life. This has been an ongoing process which has taken a more highly scrutinized turn. My musical goal is to consistently produce new DSL CI music which speads the message in plain english, no matter what style of music I end up writing it in, with hopefully many collaborations!

[Vandal]

I went through the same process of shedding about 98 percent of my music library. Now all I have is hymns and spiritual songs in my head that I sing while driving. You should all feel blessed you are not in the cab with me!

Perhaps you can come up with a nice bluegrass or ballad tune for these lyrics:

Israel, Israel, God is calling,
Calling thee from lands of woe.
Babylon the great is falling,
And God shall all her tow'rs o'er throw.

Come to Zion, Come to Zion,
Ere his floods of anger flow.
Come to Zion, Come to Zion,
Ere his floods of anger flow.

I might use that as a theme or ending to some of my podcasts. It chokes me up to sing it.

Excellent, everyone has a ministry, and everyone has their own
talent that God has bestowed on them to use to give Yahweh the
glory in order to spread His message so that seeds can be planted
so the harvest will be plentiful. We all have to do what we can with
what abilities we have.
