00:00:00.000 it's like elijah schaefer fell into 22 year old poonanny and was like i just i just fell into
00:00:06.400 temptation yeah michael knowles who is a porn star defender he did an interview with nala ray and it
00:00:12.960 was the most softball interview i've ever seen he questioned me like no tomorrow when i said men um
00:00:18.640 i don't know if you should get married i mean this is kind of an l but a porn star with an
00:00:22.640 active only fans um who says i changed he gives a softball interview too incredible so now when
00:00:31.760 a guy is bragging about marrying a now he's coming out let's see what he has to say this is going
00:00:37.440 viral right now on social media and this is a christian i don't know if he's a if he's a pastor
00:00:43.920 or if he's just a a lay preacher type but he's a he's a professional christian i think he's an
00:00:50.080 an evangelical protestant and here's the post that's going viral it opens up says my wife was
00:00:55.760 formerly promiscuous i was a virgin then he goes on to explain what a what a whore his wife was i
00:01:04.520 guess and but it but he says that's good and anyway we'll get to what that means we'll get
00:01:08.640 to why some people are objecting to it first though i want to tell you about preborn go to
00:01:11.900 preborn.com slash knolls abortion happens fast and right now in towns and cities they're told
00:01:16.380 room to breathe. It's the baby's chance of life. They support this man. Preborn.com slash Knowles
00:01:22.900 Canada WLAS to make an impact on generations to come. My wife was formerly promiscuous,
00:01:28.380 says this man Trevor Sheets. I was a virgin. She was then radically born again, committed to church,
00:01:35.420 evangelized constantly, Puritan books in her bedroom. So that's why I would say he's almost
00:01:39.960 certainly an evangelical Protestant. I have a lot of Puritan ancestors, you know. Some of those
00:01:45.360 separatists came here on the mayflower i love i love my puritan family but puritanism not where
00:01:51.500 it's at a friend of mine a priest friend of mine once said that thanksgiving is a bigger holiday
00:01:56.140 in the uk than it is in america because it's when they got rid of all those puritans and separatists
00:02:01.380 you guys are too weird get out of here anyway so okay this that's this guy's perspective
00:02:05.720 he talks about his wife he says we got to know each other well for over a year dated for four
00:02:10.060 months engaged for two and a half and did not sin sexually with one another our first kiss with each
00:02:15.040 other was at the altar on our wedding day reaction pick attached so he puts a picture of his poor
00:02:19.600 wife he's calling his wife a slut and then this picture of the wife on on the we've been married
00:02:24.860 for over five years now she's been the most wonderful and godly wife mother to our three
00:02:28.060 children and a homemaker you can imagine she's more pure than most virgins as biblical purity
00:02:33.100 has less to do with past sins uh and more to do with one's current posture of the heart we're far
00:02:38.760 too quick to forget the story of the woman labeled as a known sinner which likely means a prostitute
00:02:43.260 The Pharisees were shocked that Jesus let a public sinner wash his feet with her own tears.
00:02:49.840 Jesus responded with a parable about debts being forgiven.
00:02:52.320 Okay, you get the point.
00:02:54.020 You get how this could be a nice thing, and yet it feels a little off, doesn't it?
00:02:58.920 Yeah, again, but Michael's saying this now, after you were part of the problem, right?
00:03:05.440 Now you're like, oh, let me walk it back.
00:03:08.820 Still no apology for Pearl.
00:03:10.520 Still no apology for Pearl.
00:03:12.580 It's just incredible. Incredible. I mean, it goes on and on and on. He's talking about Christ's
00:03:18.020 forgiveness. And so that's all really good. It's true. Purity ultimately has more to do with one's
00:03:24.780 present state. You know, morality, virtue has more to do with one's present posture and orientation
00:03:31.140 than it has to do with one's past sins. The devil wants to tell you that you're going to get bogged
00:03:35.480 down in all your past sins. Yeah, but again, Christians always say, don't do what I do to
00:03:41.020 get what i got so they lie cheated and steal stole they lied cheated stole to get married to get the
00:03:47.940 money they got and then they're like oh but you guys can't do it and you're like what the fuck
00:03:53.780 you it's like they're like well in order to get a wife i banged a lot of bitches but you guys can't
00:04:01.940 you guys can't and they're like what are you telling another grown man what to do with his
00:04:06.200 and it's you know this devil whispers in your ear before you sin and says that sin is no big deal
00:04:11.580 just do it no one cares and then the minute you sin he says you can never be forgiven that's the
00:04:15.480 most enormous sin in the world that's that's one of the ways in which he tricks you so it's true
00:04:19.120 it's all about where you're walking i think c.s lewis uses this metaphor that this image that you
00:04:25.100 know we're all kind of like toddlers we're all kind of toddling around and what matters is that
00:04:32.060 we're toddling toward god and we're gonna fall and we're going we're gonna wobble and we're but
00:04:36.780 i don't like that we're gonna fall again that's kind of a get out of jail free card for anything
00:04:43.080 i'm gonna go suck a hundred dicks and just say oh i just fell into temptation do you know what i
00:04:48.500 mean it's like i yeah i just i just fell you know it's like elijah schaefer fell into 22 year old
00:04:56.560 poonanny and was like, I just, I just fell into temptation. Yeah. You know, as long as we're
00:05:02.640 oriented toward God, as long as our desire is turned toward God and we're moving in that
00:05:07.080 direction, that's what God really wants. That's what delights God. And if we're moving in the
00:05:10.640 opposite direction or we're despairing or giving up or whatever, that's a big problem. But all of
00:05:15.260 that said, I agree with so many of the points he's making. And yet this is something wrong with
00:05:19.500 this post, right? You shouldn't call your wife a whore on social media. I think, can we say that
00:05:24.860 is that i don't know am i and i have noticed this this is sometimes christians broadly do
00:05:31.360 this kind of thing they they boast even they broadly and loudly proclaim their previous sins
00:05:40.100 sometimes they'll go into lurid detail i do it almost comes off as bragging it's like yeah i
00:05:46.020 whored out now you're tempting all these men to look up your sex tape we want to see the gluck
00:05:50.740 buck 9 000 why does only he get to see it's on the internet you know this is more an evangelical
00:05:56.080 do you know what an a1 reaction would be me reacting to corn i i just think my commentary
00:06:02.640 because honestly i've just never been a fan of corn um never really watched it the only time
00:06:09.440 i've ever watched it is when i've said i've never seen corn and then people are like oh you have to
00:06:14.700 see or like twitter right when clips come up but i've never like actively i've never actively
00:06:20.040 sought it but i think i could rank girls gluck glucks you know what i mean i think i could i
00:06:24.800 think i could really rank them i think i could really you know i could just give i think my
00:06:28.980 commentary would be pretty funny anyways um the reactions nobody asked for um and nobody wanted
00:06:36.920 but i'm gonna i'm gonna offer anyway protestant thing then other flavors of christianity but and
00:06:42.820 yeah i could rate the hose i could say if the hoe do you think this hoe is doing it for the love of
00:06:46.560 game the camera or the money because there's some hoes they're hoes they do for the love of the game
00:06:52.240 it's kind of like but then um then they just get paid they happen to get paid but some you know
00:06:58.720 some hoes it's like the enthusiasm just isn't there they're just clearly there because they
00:07:03.200 make money being hot you know we could get into specific reasons why that is but it's a little
00:07:08.080 weird and here's why christ forgives us he comes not to condemn the world but to save the world
00:07:13.680 God's grace is far greater than we can possibly imagine. We have the opportunity to cooperate
00:07:20.560 with God's grace. We don't need to live constantly bogged down by shame of our past. We can move
00:07:25.800 forward in the grace of Christ. All of that is true. All of that is true. And yet, we owe each
00:07:32.460 something, we owe each other something beyond just grace. We owe each other discretion. You don't
00:07:39.240 need to talk about your past sins all the time some of sometimes that can be powerful testimony
00:07:45.120 but sometimes it's a little awkward and weird sometimes yeah so says the guy who did an in-depth
00:07:51.160 interview with nala ray it's okay but only when it serves you yeah all right i just like this
00:07:56.880 comment so there's a only or there's an ex-whore saying that i used to be a whore now i'm not a
00:08:01.280 whore the whole pipeline to jesus and i really enjoyed this commentary this saga has reminded
00:08:07.460 me why I lost interest in church in the first place. Because I found myself constantly surrounded
00:08:12.840 by weak, effeminate men. If you glance around this site, you'll notice that virtually everyone
00:08:17.240 recognizes there's a problem with our recently famous internet power couple, except for a
00:08:22.040 significant portion of one group, the loud and proud Christians. Everyone is running cover for
00:08:26.740 them. That is running cover for them falls into the naive Christian camp. Since a large number
00:08:32.320 of these folks are struggling with the moral math, I'll spell it out. A married woman who
00:08:36.380 constantly brings attention to her promiscuous past has not totally repented of it. To repent
00:08:42.320 is to let the old version of yourself die and to bury it as you commit to becoming something better.
00:08:48.260 As a wife and a mother, you have the responsibility to your family that supersedes any good that
00:08:53.480 might have come from constant public retellings of your hoe to homemaker redemption story.
00:08:59.400 One is to safeguard and promote your husband's reputation so that he can be effective in acting
00:09:04.980 on behalf of the family. The behavior of a man's wife directly impacts the respect he commands
00:09:10.660 from other men. Making TikTok videos about all the men that used to rail you is kryptonite to
00:09:15.740 your husband's standing. That's the effect of Ashley's whole branding is to promote herself
00:09:20.240 at the expense of her husband and by extension her family. This is true even if her gay retarded
00:09:25.520 husband doesn't realize it. So the problem with Ashley is not her past as much as it is her
00:09:30.580 present. She's living to exalt herself at the expense of those closest to her. And she's found
00:09:35.800 a new clever way to do it. She packages her words in a little tidy pitch that she calls her
00:09:40.760 testimony. And with this label applied, NPC Christians take to their conditioning to
00:09:46.100 automatically sanction her deranged behavior without considering the wider implications of
00:09:50.800 what she's doing. Well, what does NPC conditioning come from? With that question, we've arrived at
00:09:56.500 the real problem. The modern church is rife with pudgy, gay-faced pastors who themselves have
00:10:02.500 little actual virtue and are unfit to lead, yet who are annoyingly well-practiced at hand-waving
00:10:07.740 bad behavior with whatever Bible verse they find most convenient in the moment. To put it bluntly,
00:10:13.340 any adult man who cannot quickly and easily tell you why this couple's behavior is wrong and who
00:10:18.780 is willing to publicly do so has no business leading a church, yet so many are coming out
00:10:23.720 the woodwork to provide cover for them rather than call out the bullshit. They're doing this
00:10:28.900 because they, along with Ashley and her gay retarded husband, are practicing in the process
00:10:34.340 of inflating their own status without grounding it in any real virtue while falling back on
00:10:39.540 Christian psychobabble to cover their tracks. Christian status laundering, you might call it,
00:10:45.040 misappropriating Christian theology to pretend they're admirable and virtuous because they all
00:10:50.440 need the others to do the same for them. And so the racket continues as anyone with actual virtue
00:10:55.760 becomes demoralized and detached from the church and the perpetual degenerate stick around and
00:11:00.720 provide cover for each other. Oh, I like this reply. Most churches are full of weak men who
00:11:06.020 band together and attack any man with any strength or masculinity to enforce that it's masculine to
00:11:11.040 be a simp and a slave to your wife and name only. What servant leadership claims to be, I am the
00:11:16.160 leader. I'm in charge, but I'm benevolent. I use my power to take care of those beneath me. I put
00:11:20.660 myself last. I'm the girl. I'm a submissive trad wife who listens and obeys. I will follow my man
00:11:28.120 wherever he leads. I know he is looking out for me and will do what is right. The girl. You didn't
00:11:33.420 do what I wanted. You're getting in the way. You're a bad husband. You're not serving me. You're not
00:11:37.300 worthy of my submission and obedience. Now, S-T-F-U and obey me and put yourself last. Then it's a
00:11:43.380 dork. Yes, dear. I'm sorry I failed you as a man and a husband. A real man takes correction from
00:11:48.560 their wives. Real men obey and submit to those that they lead.
