Soror I’m looking at some of your gifts like I’m window shopping for myself. I gotta find some of the vendors for a few items in your video. Congratulations and welcome!💕💚
You’re hilarious 💓💓💗Sweetiepie👍🏽I loved your luggage-makeup bag in pink and green & your “this is a serious matter” pin & your black bag with the crest.
Hello Dee, I recommend connecting with them on all social media platforms and attending all events possible! Be sure to network without expressing interest and be visible in your community.
Final Judgement?!??!?!?!?! That is just too large a price to pay for community service and sisterly relations. Besides the bible warns us take no oath.. “But I tell you, do not swear an oath at all: either by heaven, for it is God’s throne; 35 or by the earth, for it is his footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King. 36 And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make even one hair white or black. 37 All you need to say is simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything beyond this comes from the evil one Matthew 5:34-37 NIV But the final straw, the one that really broke the camels back for me was when I was reading my bible one day and found almost the exact words of the AKA pledge in the bible. Except AKA remixed it up, took out the word God and replaced it with their name, AKA. Girl I nearly dropped my bible! I’ve been reading the bible regularly for years at that point and had never saw that scripture before IN MY LIFE. “And thou shalt love the Lord thy God, with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. Deuteronomy 6:5 KJV 25 And behold, a lawyer stood up to put him to the test, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” 26 He said to him, “What is written in the Law? How do you read it?” 27 And he answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.” 28 And he said to him, “You have answered correctly; do this, and you will live.” Luke 10:25-28 Why were these scriptures so jaw dropping? Because the pledge for AKA asks you to pledge those exact things to their org. Yet there it was in black and white in two locations a literal demonstration of AKA taking God’s glory for themselves. The holy spirit leading me to two different scriptures in two different books was significant also because He was dividing and proving the word to me by the word itself. How can I give my heart, mind and strength to two different askers? Simply, I cannot. I had to choose and in that very moment I knew my salvation was in jeopardy by continuing to be affiliated and I chose Jesus over AKA. It was painstaking to believe that AKA was potentially blocking me from eternal life and wanting to cheerfully escort me into eternal death, but I couldn’t deny in any way shape or form from God what was rightly His. The other things revealed I spent moments still trying to justify or exempt myself from while still staying a member, ok I won’t attend initiation but still stay a member. But once I found this scripture I surrendered all protest. It was an absolute direct conflict with God and what He desires from me! I was filled with holy fear at that point and immediately started the renouncement process. I burned my membership certificate, cut up all my para, and mailed back my pin, documents, financial cards, with a notarized renouncement statement. Even after sharing this testimony with others I have still heard the claim of individual mission…”Well I’m doing good works that are pleasing to God, like community service and helping children and have never put my membership before God”… To that I have warned friends, if you took that oath or repeat that pledge then you have already placed the org before God. Second you have to be careful about this thought process about good works. The bible is pretty clear on this subject. Good works performed apart from God and his will are not considered good at all. They profess to know God but they deny him by their works. They are detestable, disobedience, unfit for any good work. Titus 1: 16 ESV What makes us believe these orgs do works that are pleasing in God’s sight? The bible tells us that if the foundation of anything is rotten so is the fruit it produces no matter how “good” it appears to our natural eye. And if you are a Christian you are challenged to examine the source of everything. A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. Matthew 7:18 ESV The bible also says to test every spirit to see from where it came and not to be deceived because evil can present itself as good, and good can be misconstrued to appear evil. Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 1 John 4:1 NIV So if these orgs are essentially idol worship, (which they are) and the bible strictly forbids idol worship (which it does) then the good works are no longer good in His sight… they are “good works” to the natural eye but contributing to the continuum of idolatry, which is not good by Gods standards at all. Think about those good works as a marketing tool for recruitment. It misguides those who only tread the surface and don’t examine the foundation of orgs deeper like I didn’t.. the works had me sold too.. I believed what I was joining was good because the output appeared good, but after closer examination I realized 2 things, one I discovered my first year after crossing, which is that I could have broader impact on my community BY MYSELF than with my org, because of the politics alone. And two in 2016 God revealed that those works were just smoke and mirrors in the collection of souls. I will leave you with this last thing to think about as well. Through the pledge process these orgs attempt to mimic the process of being born again… they take you through a process of going from darkness into light and when you resurface it is in their name and under their authority. (You wear black all throughout your process and then wear white the day you cross) They rename you, and number you according to the orgs standards. You strut around proudly, glorifying that org wherever you go… in fact people often know your org affiliation before they know your name, because its on your jacket, keychain, umbrella, license plate, tote bag, hat. When you really start to dig into that idea beyond what it appears to be on the surface, what you are actually doing is performing worship and what you are bonding yourself into is not upstanding or righteous at all. Its scary and spiritually dangerous. The only guiding light I want to follow and be brought into is carried by Jesus, praying you feel the same. Praying for your freedom in Christ as well.

Besides the bible warns us take no oath..
“But I tell you, do not swear an oath at all: either by heaven, for it is God’s throne; 35 or by the earth, for it is his footstool; or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King. 36 And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make even one hair white or black. 37 All you need to say is simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything beyond this comes from the evil one
