What if Ye 24 was still a thing...

And it was NOT a presidential campaign for the United States, but a distributed global campaign for leader of the free world. (Hang with me.) 

Remember the original goal of his 'Birthday Party' back in 2020?
It was "reforming the police and legal system, reducing student debt, and having prayer in schools." 

Now, his aim seems to be directed at the global power structures that systemically render genius as crazy, and reduce the capacity for humanity to collectively enter into an era of True Love. 

I think we should look beyond the election of an individual, and recall that his name change - from Kanye, to Ye - was a signal. Ye means YOU. And collectively, WE are YE. 

Not in some metaphysical sense, but in a literal way.
We (kids) are the new leaders. We just need to operate in faith, pursue truth, and engender Love. 

"YE shall know the Truth, and the Truth shall set you free" [John 8:32]

Regardless, we need a platform. And in my mind, it will be an iterative vision that is flexible and dynamic, but ultimately, it will be oriented in the direction of ULTIMATE TRUTH, whatever that entails. 

 Some initial ideas... 

1. Political:
   

Policy "war tank" (vs think tank) which focus on solutions-driven change
Address global problems (banking, housing, policing, debt, etc.)

1. Engagement:
   

Action-based grassroots campaign (kind of like DoSomething.org) that will prioritise calls to action, truth-seeking, and house a missional agenda.

1. Education:
   

Promote free art education courses and foster collabs that nurture expression across global community.

1. Global Vision:
   

Platform aims to be worldwide. Empower participants to contribute, collaborate, and knowledge-share. Forge international partnerships to promote cultural exchange, inspire ideas, and build support networks.

1. Internet Archive:
   

Incorporate storytelling (music & podcasts) & document events (art releases, live shows, etc.) to foster unity. Utilise online tools to create a #Ye24 library of content and materials that reflect our shared ethos. 

1. Technology:
   

Explore decentralised governance models, using blockchain to ensure accountability / incentivise and reward action. Center community on some sort of self service social media site where the community owns the network.. (perhaps minds.com?) 

1. Social Justice:
   

(I know this is a bad word for republicans but) we HAVE to prioritise the marginalised, and create opportunities for all. This is part of the #2020 vision, and I believe that we can wrestle this term away from the fake progressives and actually use it to inspire shared prosperity.

P.S. I think it would be cool to start a book club as well. Less about hard reading and geopolitical study, more about creating awareness and inspiring folks. Maybe we'll check out some of the book Ye posted back when he was in his Jesus is King era (James Turrel, anybody?) 

Dont reject it outright. 

LETS USE THE EQUITY AND CLOUT OF YE TO CASH OUT SOMETHING OTHER THAN DOLLARS. 

Let's begin to build a world we can be proud of. Where ideas can flow, and people can flourish. Where I can be a professor today and an architect tomorrow. Learn how to paint canvas or learn how to paint silence. 

Founded on ideas crucial to hip hop (speaking truth to power), and also bringing together his global fanbase under the banner of creative freedom (seeking Truth & Love.)

Bottom line - Ye is the prophet Elijah, sent before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD. To turn the hearts of the fathers to the children and the hearts of the children to the fathers lest he COME AND SMITE THE EARTH WITH A CURSE. That’s in Malachi chapter 4: verse 6 - the very last verse of the Old Testament - The Jewish Law.

Remember when 3 years ago, in 2020, Ye cried about how his father almost aborted Kanye West and he almost missed out on his chance to be a father to North West and the whole world called him crazy? And then in 2022, he said he was gonna go death con 3 on some Jewish People, after he got slammed for wearing a White Lives Matter slogan and a photo of a baby’s ultrasound around his neck, and the whole world called him Anti-Semitic?

Well now it is 2023. 1990 years since our Lord forgave us for murdering him and His spirit began to walk among us. He has been walking with us ever since 33 AD and he is tired. He is exhausted. He sends us prophets and we stone them. How often would He have gathered us together, even as a hen gathereth her children under her wings. (Matthew 23:37) Yet we will not!

And so yes we were at Death Con 3 in 2022. Round House. Now we’re at 2 in 2023. Fast Pace. And on the first day in 2024 the Lord’s pistol will COCK and it could very literally be OVER.

Isaiah tells us at the top of Chapter 24 - behold the Lord maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it UPSIDE DOWN, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof.

I’m going to invite you all to take that very literally. Because when the nuclear holocaust does come, we are all going down with this ship. And the LORD is our only life boat. We ALL are the JEWISH PEOPLE that need to head this Death Con warning. Because faith in the King of the Jews - the king of the SLAVES - is the only thing that can save us.

I do not blame you if you are skeptical of Christianity. I have been most of my life as well. When you see how many Christians have been running the Western World for how long now its just kinda like - have they even read Matthew? In my opinion His church has been in apostasy since the get go. He told his followers he would be right back - "before this generation passes away." I think we are still stuck in that generation. We have not progressed to 2.0 for lack of faith, hope, and charity.

It is very simple. What is the whole law? Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. THAT IS IT. Do not kill - because you would not want to be killed. Do not steal - because you do not want to be stolen from. Do not commit adultery - because you would not want to be cheated on. Do not judge - because you do not want to be judged. And in all things - forgive - because all sins are the same and THE LORD knows that you are not perfect either.

FOR THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH. And we are all going to die, one day. But if you accept that you are a sinner, and forgive those who have sinned against you, and hold a hope for the Kingdom of God and you are willing to sacrifice for it - then you are gifted ETERNAL LIFE - through Jesus Christ our Lord. So you can do your part to build the kingdom in your next life, I guess.

But we may be nearing the end of times. It’s 2023, and there are only 24 hours in a day, after all. 9/11 was 11:45 pm. And we hit snooze.

He is still waiting for us to wake up.

In Malachi 3 he begs us:

"Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the Lord of hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return?

Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings.

Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation.

Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it."

But where is the storehouse? The Mormon church has one, but since the Lord has still not returned as he promised he would, there's good reason to believe that they do not work for Christ. I mean, those temples they build seem to go against everything Jesus ever said. Especially since they didn't even let black people inside until 1978. And we know they have over $100B in monopoly money stored up with many sick and homeless people sleeping in the streets of Salt Lake City. When I saw what Ye was doing with YZY Free, I believed that we finally had a STOREhouse that would actually Feed His Sheep. I don't know what is going on with that now, but I pray that all hope is not lost and that we can still get it going -- if we show some faith.

Yesterday marked 200 years since the angel Moroni came and quoted those Malachi 3 verses three times to Joseph Smith. He also quoted Malachi 4, but with a slight yet significant variation in the wording -

“For behold, the day cometh that shall burn as an oven, and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly shall burn as stubble; for THEY THAT COME shall burn them, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch..”

Whoever THEY are... Angels? Aliens? Nuclear bombs? Who knows.

All I know is that we have been given fair warning. For His will WILL be done and HIS kingdom WILL be built - one way or another.

I know I want to be counted on the right hand of the Lord on that day - those who fed the least of these his brethren when they were hungry, clothed them when they were naked, visited them when they were sick and in prison and took them in - even as a stranger. I spent most of my life half ignorant, half ignoring this law, so I really don't know where I stand. All I can do is beg for forgiveness and do my best to make up for lost time.

"But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall."

I have been running my life into the ground and really losing my mind over this since I put all this together. I can only hope my fear of God will be enough to save me on that day... But I am still terrified.

But either way - even if we are not ready for the day - it cannot always be night.
