#northcarolina #traveling #biltmore #historybuff Hey y’all, A couple of years ago, I went back to Biltmore Estate in North Carolina with my family. It was astonishing, historical, and nostalgic goin’ back. The reason why is because I was either 6 or 7 when we visited that grand mansion. Moreover, I wasn’t allowed to record a video for an actual travel vlog, but I was allowed to take pictures. I...

Seven years old when Surfs-up released? We may be about the same age! Keep up the content brother. Talking about art, baseball, saxophone, and guitar resonates with me. It reminds me of the movie-like memories God has provided through my life growing up. I played trumpet, and then tuba in middle school and have cherished memories of concerts and even the stressful competitions. I quit when I entered high school to pursue Lacrosse which was too expensive and time consuming for me and my single mom. Then I decided I wanted to do Baseball in high school with no prior experience (school that had won state championships) God gave me the strength to try out despite my embarrassing lack of mechanical skill in the sport. I never made it past tryouts but got to help manage the team and go to games to record stats and video footage. When I graduated high school with a medal in academic excellence in Astronomy (I was surprised to know I earned that during my practice ceremony), and it's wonderful that you mention astronomy in this video. Also took a digital media (Adobe illustrator and photoshop class) and rediscovered a passion for arts as a senior. Then after graduation my uncle gifted me his acoustic guitar knowing I was going to order one to be delivered to his house during an extended visit, it meant so much. Just lots of good memories have popped up watching this video. I'm even considering getting involved in choir when I join an Eastern Orthodox Parish, I love the Byzantine Chant style of music. Life is definitely a movie. Thanks be to God.
Thank you for sharing yourself. God bless you!
Woah you look like Jesse Cash! He's a vocalist and guitar player in a metal band called Erra.
I haven't even finished watching the short because of the striking similarity!
@@tresmusketeers222 I never heard of him. People often tell me that I favor a younger version of comedian and actor, Ray Romano, actually.
@@elijahc.brooks3493 I do definitely see that too! It's funny, I stumbled upon the video you posted about that looking through your channel last night. I have a picture I took with Jesse Cash actually years ago. It just sort of blows my mind considering I have been considering converting to Eastern Orthodoxy and praying a lot about it.
I've had vivid dreams of visiting an Orthodox Church, but something seems to be holding me back. One of the first dreams in this series of dreams is visiting an evil temple of sorts with worshippers that I was part of. I then escaped from the rest of the crowd and found a blue robe, a cross, and staff. I then confronted the evil worshippers and suddenly a flood of water washed over the temple including myself and I woke up. I am diagnosed with bipolar disorder which is known for magical or delusional thinking, but this feels so profound.
Please pray for me
Beautiful
It’s a holy and beautiful memoir to read.
Glad you got to experience DragonCon 2024 Atlanta I haven’t been back since DragonCon 2009 or so. Never pay for celebrity photos lol many celebrities do it for! Glad you had a fun time man.
Thanks, Mason! Yeah, it ain’t worth the money to take pictures/autographs with celebrities. I just go up to them and meet them like a normal person instead. If the good Lord gives me the blessing to be a famous actor, I’ll try my best not to charge above $10. I love people! Elvis Presley himself didn’t even charge his fans for autographs and pictures.

My Papo died when I was in second grade and now he’s in heaven with Jesus Christ and panagia
Hey Elijah, I wanna say keep doing what you’re doing man but I felt the need to point out that one of the symbols in Avatar looks like 666 brother. God Bless
@@queiskle This is Chat GPT’s response to your concern. “In "Avatar: The Last Airbender," the Air symbol represents the Air Nomads, one of the four bending nations. The symbol is characterized by a spiral shape, which signifies the concept of freedom, movement, and the interconnectedness of all things. Airbending is associated with principles of agility, evasion, and a deep understanding of the natural world. The Air Nomads value spirituality, peace, and harmony, emphasizing non-violence and a strong connection to the spirit world.” Avatar: The Last Airbender emphasizes the Eastern religions and spirituality. Although, it ain’t Christian, but we can still learn to be inspired the significant influence of the show’s impact in our society.

Thank you for enlightening me about the angel's name being "Gabriel".
Sorry delete this comment if you wish i don't wanna bother you. Just recently saw your review of Man of God But have you seen the movie Saint Petka cross in the dessert It's amazing 😍 Just wanna know your thoughs on that film if you've seen it
You're not bothering me at all. I enjoy people engaging in dialogue with me. I'm an extroverted, old soul, and a storyteller. When it comes to your question, I haven't seen it. Since I'm in film school, I intend to create original Christian storytelling like Narnia and The Lord of the Rings and Hobbit. I’m learning to do acting, screenwriting, directing, etc. I've been an Eastern Orthodox Christian convert for 3 1/2 years, and I've been an acolyte at my home parish for over a year now. I don't recall the saint, St. Petka. I'll definitely watch it. What did you think about my "Man of God" film review? I apologize for spoling the entire movie.
@@elijahc.brooks3493 first of all it was great review i also watched 7 to 8 times i have it downloaded on my phone and i am always rewatching scenes The way you explained the scenes is exactly how i experienced them Wish you luck on your acting career I recomend you watching the anime one piece I was moved when i saw your holy faith on the short belssed are you o Lord teach me your statues. One of my favorite chants I am macedonian i think in one of your videos you've said you were greek so yea we are neighbors if you'd like to sing o virgin pure in english or agni parthene in greek it would be awsome Praying for you IC XC NI KA

@@GyToJs38 Thank you very much! So, to be honest with you, I am a White Southern convert from the Pentecostal movement to Eastern Orthodoxy 3 1/2 years ago. My heritage is mostly English, Irish, Scottish, and mostly Northern Europe. Nevertheless, I have an ancestor who was 100% Sardinian. That's near Sicily and off the coast of Italy. I'm proud I sorta resemble a Greek man. Since I'm from the Deep South, my church family thought I was a Southern Greek man. Haha! When you say Macedonian, do you mean near Thessaloniki in Northern Greece or from North Macedonia? That country above Greece who has more Orthodox Christians now like Albania.
@@GyToJs38I actually did sing “O Pure Virgin Mary.” It’s in my RUclips shorts. Keep scrolling until you see it. The lights are turned off and I have a candle singing it. Most Holy Theotokos, save us.
Happy birthday ❤️🔥 ☦️⚔️ 🙏🏊 Glory to God
Many thanks!
Happy Early Bday Elijah!
@@lefroge6202 Thank you!
The problem is we are in a world where most are not going the right way and many do not even believe there is life after death so the cincept of death is very permenent when in reality to Jesus death was just a quick thing guy came back in 3 days said he conquered hell people were like "theres a guy walkin around over there with holes in him they killed him days ago stabbed him dead. he was like "one more feast on the beach with my homies then I acsend" so to jesus death was like a bus ride he died came back was like "yeah i did it if i couldnt you wouldnt believe" then dude acended from a mountain top out uo into the sky and dissapeared never seen him since for thousands of years he said hes coming back though no one knows when except him. So death is very hard for people for everyone actually there is much sadness involved but jesus said to us to be in good spirits because with him all these bad things are temporary. A drastic situation is happening where the universe can only exist scientifically logically and physically if it happens a very peculiar certain type of way. You cant have a finite something unless it has an infiniate nothing to happen within. So the whole universe is very based upon logical actions. Its not random happen stance tbe umiverse operates off laws of physics which are not physical things but metaphysical out of this universe if-you-will. Laws from beyond and above which govern the universe below. So a guy named isaac newton figured this out and was able to conclude the laws for example matter cannot be created norndestroyed only changed fromcone form to the next, as well as every action has an equal but opposite reaction. So the nature of the universe itself concludes to us that if there is not infinite expanse space there cannot be finite matter to fill it like the big bang which every athiest and thiest agrees the physically exiting universe has an origin point, so by this we should also be able to reason that if we are in a mortal universe that is the action there must be an equal but opposite immortal universe which like how the bug bang cant happen unless infinite expanse of soace happened first, we cannot get to an imortal universe without first passing through the mortal one where jesus stands inbetween them both mortal and immortal universes as the only true doorway of which there is none other. The only way to pass from one to another is through the one who architects them both. This is why everyone is doomed since adam and eve ate the apple. The world went from good to bad right there and thus every innocent baby is born into a cruel and inhumane world that was not jesus intention no one makes it through without satans temptations and many other things jesus wants to teach us to resist. We are in a molding process like a clay pot. The clay is us and when making clay you have to work the clay and get the airpockets out before you mold it into a jug that can carry much wine or else when its fired the clay pot blows up in the kiln and explodes. Every clay pot which is us will be fired and the kiln is our final judgement where we are put to the fire to be turned from clay to be set in stone and if your clay has air pockets it will blow up and instead of going to the eternal vinyard in heaven you will be shattered pieces scattered in hell. So we are in this mortal universe we are like the unfired early clay where its being kneeded to get all the airpockets out and its so important to get the airpockets out. If we are like clay thats being reworked because it has air pickets or the jug is falling over or is nit made right you have to start over. Theres only so many chances to start over before someone else will get your spot and if youre the clay pot thats not made right whe. It comes yohr time to pass from this mortal world to the immortal one next you want to be the good wine jug that is made well and doesnt explode in the kiln on final judgement and thus you will get into eternal paradise.
Do you believe in God? I absolutely do ‘cause I’ve had very personal, spiritual, and trial experiences that I faced during my teenage years. I even saw a “Man dressed in a white robe” at the end of my bed. That was Jesus Christ, and I have no doubt about it. I will tell you this. I’m more leaning to mystery and emotions believing in God. Nonetheless, I do comprehend what your argument on the basis of the living God. You’re very rational and analytical like a Western Christian thinker. There’s nothing wrong with that, but I embraced the Eastern Orthodox Church ‘cause I can’t fully fathom God in this life on earth. He’s a true mystery, but I have complete faith in him. I hope to achieve “Theosis,” when I enter into His presence in Heaven after my life is over here on Earth.
Good chums I'm gonna assume
Oh, yeah! There were some disagreements, but they are one in Christ Jesus. I’m an Eastern Orthodox Christian convert and even though I love my Roman Catholic brothers and sisters in Christ, I can’t just recognize St. Peter. St. Paul is in equal ranking with him ‘cause he spread the gospel throughout most of Greece and Turkey. St. Paul wrote most of the New Testament.
I’m a day late, but I hope everybody had a blessed feast of Holy Pentecost yesterday. The church was born in AD 33.
🙏🏿☦️
God is holy, perfect, and righteous!
Thank you
You’re welcome!
the Jesus as fully Man and fully God makes that my new favorite icon. thank you for going over the meaning.
Yeah, I also learned about icons and the iconoclasm period in my college humanities class. The Christ Pantocrator of Mount Sinai from the 6th century A.D. is one of the oldest Holy Byzantine icons in the world.
