Idols Always Fail. Clarity for 2026.

Same. Our idols fail us. They will always fail us, They have always failed us, and nothing changes, and only your battle against that, your mind numbing battle against that, that must confuse the hell out of your God, especially now you know twenty twenty five is all that's getting in the way in twenty twenty six. Clarity is my motivation in twenty twenty six, PBN Family, I had a year of haze and distraction and a lot I don't want to go into it a lot, but suffice it to say, if things sounded weird throughout the year or whatever, I was operating with about an engine and a half something along those lines. From from a focused standpoint, you know, the world around me and life was such that I was finding clarity. I was finding clarity, and things that were happening to me around me, you know, all that because of me, All this stuff unfolding. It's why we fight to the death for truth. It's why we fight to the death for truth, because in the truth is that's the only place you can find real clarity. You have to be willing to go in because it's a scary place. The truth. When you really start to understand the world around you, people around you, the things around you, what's running, how it's running, who's running it, why they're running it, why they're not running it, why they could care less, what's happening, you know, the whole thing. What's a fit sufficient enough for people in order to live a life that they want to live despite the suffering it incurs on others. These are all big, wild things, and we have to find the truth in them all. We have spent the last five to ten years chipping the veneer off of the world for good reason. For good reason, because we've built upon it idols everywhere you could turn, and every single idol's failed you. Every one of the idols has failed. You share this with someone who can understand just this part in twenty twenty, well, you could go as far back as two thousand and one and believed that we decided to worship the idol of safety and security. Right after nine to eleven, we decided that we should focus on security and safety, and we did. We decided to hand over a lot of things for security and safety. During COVID, same thing. We fell into the safety and security idol once again. We got down at the altar of safety and public health and then you know, some people fell into a complete and total mental breakdown of you know, the idol of Dei and the idol of equality and the idol of social justice, and they sacrificed family and everything all to this idol. Sacrifice your careers and future opportunities and the whole nine yards. It just sacrificed everything at the altar, because that's what you do for an idol. You say sacrifice, right, And the tricky thing about an idol is you don't some idols you don't realize your sacrifice for. In other words, when you make it a point to sacrifice for God and to put away thy detestable things, well then you know. Then you know what you're sacrificing and why. But when the sacrifice for God seems too heavy, well that's when you when you think you can beat the rub. That's when you start thinking, oh maybe I can. Maybe I can beat it, man. Maybe I can go around it. Maybe I can go around this thing called life, this thing called God. Maybe I can find a different idol to worship, and in doing so I will be able to, you know, enjoy things a little better. Maybe I won't have to make that sacrifice I don't want to make, but which you don't realize that you're sacrificing anyway. Twenty twenty, so many people sacrifice so much relationships, love, marriage, families, all because of a distance, all because of a mask, all because of a needle, all because of a message from another idol. Right, either the syringe became an idol and it was brought to you by an American idol or some other kind of pop star or football star or some idiot on television telling you you're evil and you're a monster and you're terrible unless you stab yourself and inject yourself and your children. And only then once you inject yourself and your children can you be a good person again. As an idol, and we worshiped it, and we fell further and further from ourselves and from God because of it. So this warning at the end of twenty twenty five has everything to do with idle worship and the fact that they fail us consistently, and the only thing that won't fail you is God. This is as real as it gets, in as true as it gets. And for those of you are agnostic out there, and you're just like, I don't know, I don't buy it, Jim, I'm not. I don't get it. It just doesn't hit for me. Wait a little deeper, what little by little, you know what I mean, Wait a little deeper. The other thing i'd recommend to for you agnostics out there going into twenty twenty six in a complete haze, worshiping your idols, trying to figure out, you know, why you hate Donald Trump or whoever so much, and why the Jews cause everything, and why this group does everything and that group does everything. I would tell you, you know, just wait a little deeper. You don't have to have some sort of irreverent or some incredible, almost psychedelic experience with God, especially not right off the bat, but just dig a little bit deeper, you know, read some Bible, find some discipline to read some Bible. Right, I'd recommend you just read it. You just read a little bit every day. There's no harm. Right. If you are supremely agnostic and you know you want nothing to do with any religion whatsoever, then the worst thing that will happen is you'll come away saying I told you so. I knew it. I had a feeling, I knew it was just me out here alone in the universe, me and Bill Gates. I knew it. That brings me to climate change, the idol of climate change, the idol of Gaya and the earth. Right, Oh we worshiped the planet? Oh did we ever worship the planet and climate change? And why did you worship it so hard? Because the big money worshiped it too. Remember there was money to be made because we know what they worship. Well, you can't be too sure what the big money worships. To think it's money and power, but it could be the brutal death and rape of children. Also, Oh yeah, you think that's far out of that realm. You think once you get to a certain point of money in power, you don't start looking around and say, oh, you know, big deals used to make my heart pound, Making big money used to make my heart pound. Telling people no and telling people yes used to make my heart pound. And now I need something a little more, something a little depraved, because demons find their way into a week and soul. Demons find their way into a soul that is low on faith, that is traumatized, that is damaged. A cynical soul, I think is a great home for a demon. I do well, I'll find cynicism at every turn. And I'm telling you right now, folks, this world that we live in today, it's filled with people like this. But we worshiped the idol of the Earth and the climate change and again destroyed everything everything. Anybody who said, no, oh, well yeah, just get rid of them. I mean, there's no point in having these people around, these naysayers on the subject. I mean, Bill Gates is all in, right, He's all in, we gotta do this climate change thing here, we gotta fix this. We got we got issues, right, It's number one, the biggest thing that we could do, take care of planet Earth. It's nothing more important. Bill Gabe Zuckerberg. The whole nine yards Meta Elon, every Elon was even in on it for a little while. Everybody in on climb, we gotta save the planet. What happened. What happened, Well, the idol shifted. That was when the idol shifted. The idol shifted because they wanted to bring the devil into reality through artificial intelligence. They're like, oh, we can bring the we can bring we could make God, we can make the Antichrist ourselves. What power we could have then, so all of a sudden You've got data centers down the street that are socked soopping up more water than you could ever imagine. They're gonna do more harm to the planet than anything. Right, What are we doing now? More plastic, more power, more everything, everything, everything, everything all aboard, right, And it's that's it. That's where we're at. The idol has changed before your very eyes. The same people who stood up and told you we got to do everything we can to protect the enviolment and we got to make sure that we put up solar panels and green energy so that we can protect the enviolnment. And everything's going to be fine because I figured it out. I'm smart, and the idol changed right before your venyeir own. I don't know. I don't think. I'm not into artificial intelligence. I don't think that's the idol I wanted to worship. I was happy worshiping Mother Gaya and wearing my hemp clothing and smoking pot and feeling at one with with you know, walking barefoot, you know, and yelling at people who drove gasoline powered cars and telling them they were, you know, monstrous. But now you come to realize, oh wait a second, We've got a new set of problems. Now we've got a new set of problems. The holders of the idols or those influencers, those idle influencers, they sold us a raw deal. They sold us a raw deal. They had they had to come to the conclusion that the computing power of artificial intelligence was such that they're gonna have to burn some fossil fuels, they're gonna have to do some nuclear power. They're gonna have to sop up some of that precious drinking water that you think you need. Oh, you don't need it. We need it for our chaos portal. Sorry, yeah, we need it for our portal. We've got to get the demons through. I apologize. I would have loved to have stuck with you on this green new deal, but the reality is we've got to get the portal open. And that's you know, since we sold our souls anyway, this is a priority. So we find ourselves in this situation for this is the reality. And what it does is it has the society whirling. The society is whirling. They're shooting people, they're blowing people up, they're losing their minds, they're taking medications at nauseam to try to to try to make sense of this world because everyone they put their faith in every idol that they have, right the idol that they every idol that they have, has turned on them. Imagine all the people right. Well, I know it's a bad example. Forget it. I was gonna mention Nicki Minaj of all things, but it's just it's it's an example of how everything turns. That is an idol. There is nothing stable. I have said it for years. We are your path back to stability. Where you cannot talk about a path back to stability Without God, you will never find stability. If you're in the in the business of worshiping idols never happen. They'll always let you down, they will always fall short. This is why the idols always fail you. This is why in twenty twenty six, I am after clarity and I want you to be on the same boat. I want you to be in the same sort of mind frame. I want you to understand there is something special to this. But you've got to be able to dig into the truth. You've got to be able to at least wait a little deeper into the waters. And it's not all about religion. Don't get me wrong. It's not all about this relationship with God, though it is a part of it, and it's a hard one to deny. Definitely is. But I just finished a book. I just put a book out about how you truly change generations, how you truly affect the world around you. It was one of the core elements of writing Let Your Heart Be Light. When I wrote Let Your Heart Be Light, there were a few things that I wanted to touch on in that book that were essential. Man, there were the whole motivation behind that book, And one of the things that I thought was most critical to talk about was in the budding new relationship where one side believed in protest to the other side didn't. What what would really have an effect? And then to really think about it and to really discern what really has an effect on the world. What can you really do to affect the world. What can a couple really do to affect the world. When we gather together and mill about in mass over months about an issue and we start throwing flags of different countries in the air and signs with terrible phrases on them, I think we've all come to realize that a protest, in order to be effective there's a formula, and the formula is definitely not let's protest every day for thirty days. The American mind is not equipped for that. So for me in writing this book, one of the core elements that I to touch on is, well, I'll just break it down to you. I wanted to have a relationship where one of the people in the relationship was a protester, a serious, you know, left wing ish protester. Maybe not necessarily left wing ish, it's it's kind of left. The politics and all that kind of stuff are kind of left in the dark. And for good reason, right because I don't want to it doesn't need to morph the story. But one person believes in stopping war through protest and the other person does not. And how does that play out? And then to take that even a step further, what can we actually do in this modern age to truly affect the world, to have an effect on the world? What can you do? Right? You thought you could call on many of these idols to do it. Oh, they'll do it. They got billions, they'll help. Ohug Elin will do it. He'll fix everything. He's got star link up there for us. In twenty twenty six, folks, you have to put your faith in humanity and Christ, and put your time in humanity in Christ. That's as boiled down as I can get get it. That really is as boiled down as I can get it. For you. You have to put your faith and your time and your effort into Christ and into humanity. And what I mean by humanity is it's just I'm talking a small group. It doesn't have to be I go to here and do this, or whatever your bandwidth is. I would say, really important to sharpen up at home, really important to sharpen up at home, really important to sharpen up what comes out of your home and affects the world. Right. In other words, instead of muting the household so that you can read about what's going on outside of the household and then get all worked up about what's going on outside of the household and try to affect and fix what's going on outside of the household, probably much better just to tend to your own garden and seek immense clarity in there, Seek immense clarity in the relationship's closest to you. What is this relationship really all about? What's the good here, what's the bad here? What's fixable, what's unfixable? What the hell is this relationship being brought low in twenty twenty five, being for the first time in a long time, being someone who needed help, being someone who needed someone who is looking around like I always the person looking around for those who need help, looking around for those who could use a bump, looking for those you know what I mean. Who It's always been my position, you know, I'm like scouting and I say, oh, let me go over there, and I'll tell you about this thing and what I would do and maybe you could try this and do that or whatever. The situation is going from being that guy Tod all of a sudden like straining looking around, you know, lifting this if you can imagine me sort of lifting this immense rock, usually being the guy that come over and put extra hands on someone else's rock, you know, because I'd lifted mine. I wake up early so I can lift my own rocks, you know what I mean. I wake up early, and I train hard so I can lift my own rocks and I can help others with theirs. And to suddenly be this guy, which I was several times in twenty twenty five, which very rare for me, but several times in one year being this guy who's underneath this rock and my low back is hurt, and I looking around and I just I'm struggling. I can't get the rock up, and I'm looking around. I'm looking around. Who's coming, you know what I mean, Who's coming, Who's gonna help? Who is somebody gonna help? And I learned who comes and helps? That level of clarity that I never had before. You have it in sort of a fantasy or in sort of in some kind of you know, you assume, or you think or you make you know what I mean, and you look around and you very quickly start to see who people are. Oh okay, and you know and not everyone in your life doesn't have to be the perfect ally, everyone in your life doesn't have to be perfect, but you better know who is who in your life? In twenty twenty six, who is who? What are they capable of? What are they not capable of? It doesn't matter where they fall in proximity to you and to you know, you may find out that one of your greatest allies is a person that you talk to once a year. You talk to them once a year, but you know what the moment something goes wrong, They're on the telephone. What do you need? How can I get it to you? Who can help? What can I do? I'll be over in twenty minutes. Whatever the situation is. This is what I mean by that level of clarity in your life. Who are the people in the relationships in your life? What does your life really look like? I never really question this stuff until twenty twenty five. The reason I bring it up, and the reason I'm drawing parallels is because I'm talking about idols today the day after Christmas. I'm talking about idols today, the day after Christmas because I want you to understand, because there's a level of strength and understanding and just joy freedom that comes from really starting to understand who's who in your life, what's you know? It's when you put God at number one. Then all of a sudden you can say, Okay, well I got that, I got that stability set up, I know what's in that position, right, And then you start to figure out what is actually going on here, you know, not that stop worrying about what's going on in the White House. Start thinking about what's going on in your own house right and with the people that are you know, your friends, your family, your allies, your whole thing. For so long, man, people have been we've just gotten better and better and better at bullshit, you know what I mean, As humanity has gone along in life, we've gotten really good at a lot of things. We've gotten better and better and better at bunch different things, you know, And one of the things we've gotten really good at is bullshit. Right icing on the cake, cherries on top. You're talking to a guy who I thought this was how you survived in life, right Honestly, for a long long time, it was like, tell them what they want to hear, man, you know what I mean, Tell them what they want to hear so they don't run off. And it's so important to really look at your camp, to look at your group, to look at your people and say who's gonna run off? When you were under that rock and you're trying to lift that damn rock and you're crying and you're sweating, and your your shoulders out of socket, and you've got to lift that rock, and you'll turn around and you'll say, oh, who's gonna come, who's helping, who's coming? Is anybody coming? And a lot of times you're surprised. You're surprised at who shows up and who doesn't, and in that you find truth, and in that you find clarity. And then you can compare that to every single sort of thing that has out there in the world, and you'll come to understand what's really happening in your life. You know, who cares about what's happening in the in the in the lines of the Epstein files, I can sum the Epstein files up for you real quick. Okay, President Bill Clinton is an absolute monster who should be arrested already and probably killed, probably executed, because God only knows how deep the rabbit hole goes with that guy. I mean, how many organizations, how many memes, how many groups, the Clinton assassination machine, the cry Clinton crime family. Now we got the Clinton pedophilia ring. These this this man was president and his wife was almost president too. Think about that. Idle worship. Don't trust your judgment, are you kidding? Trust your judgment? Don't trust your judgment? Hell, no, trust in God and the works of those around you. Right, It's in the Bible. You will know them by their works. You know Bill Clinton, you know what he's all about. He showed you his works in the oval orifice, as Rush Limbaugh used to call it. You know him by his works, right, So, Pbian Family. I could go on and on, because this is this is a life transforming sort of situation that and you just it takes a year like twenty twenty five to bring forth a year like twenty twenty six. You know what I mean for me personally. And I'm trying to convey that to you because I see that we're always hungry, We're always we're ever hungry for an idol. We want somebody to show up. It's Donald Trump right now, There's no mistake about it, right, Donald Trump is the idol. He is the guy, he is the king, He is the daddy. Oh, please fix everything, daddy. Please make the illegal immigrant monster, rapist killers go away. Daddy, Please please fix the economy for us, Daddy, even though all of us have eighty thousand dollars in credit card debt, and we bought a car with a three thousand dollars car payment, and we bought a house that's overpriced and inflated by six times it's actual worth. And here we are and we're asking a man to fail, right, We're asking a man to fail. Oh please Daddy, fix everything. Seek the truth and seek clarity. In twenty twenty six PBN Family, Seek it through self reliance as well. Seek it through self reliance as well. You know that there are monsters amongst us, right, and they're always getting stronger all the time. They're always getting better at what they do. They're always getting stronger. And we're gonna talk a lot about these monsters two in twenty twenty six. Things you won't even believe. I know what we're gonna talk about because it's on my heart, and I've always brought you my heart. That's what I've always done. It's probably part of the reason twenty twenty five might have faultled it off. I might have sounded a little off. You know. That's all I could bring you is pieces. I couldn't bring you the whole thing. You know, the heart was incomplete. It was broken a lot, you know, many times, many times throughout the year. It was broken. And to get up and to talk and to deliver something to the public, like you know that's supposed to be from your broken heart, it's tough. You try to fill the cracks in with stuff, you know what I mean? Try to make it sound good and sound like it's right and everything's okay and fine, and it's not always that way. So beware of idols. They always let you down, they always fail, they're never gonna do with what you think they're gonna do, and they're always gonna require a sacrifice. And understand that one of the biggest idols that you're struggling with right now is just the president of the United States. He's the guy. He's the guy we can sacrifice for and worship, and he will bring about the great change and fix the nation and make the nation back. Maybe he will, maybe he should, but don't forget, it's his job. There's no need to worship the guy. Right We've just had such a parade of shit presidents that we forget. Oh, this is just a president's job, you know. It's what he's supposed to do. For those of you who are lost and without God and currently have no desire to intertwine, please, if you do anything for me in twenty twenty six, just wait a little deeper, Just wait a little deeper. And for those of you who are looking for a challenge, those of you who are looking for a challenge, stay tuned. Those of you who are looking to heal, those of you who are looking to build your faith and your will, stay tuned, because in the next week or so, I'll be announcing yet another network wide fast, another network wide seventy two hour fast that will heal your physical body, heal your soul, so on and so forth. I mean it in it's biblical, it comes from God. It is what it is. We'll call it the men King because this time of year, every year, Stephen men King does his own fast, his own personal fast, and I don't want to talk about it. It's his business, not yours, but it's it's a thing that he does annually. And you know, he is the guy who pushed me over the edge. He is the man who pushed me over the edge into the arms of God. And I'll always be grateful to him for that. And that's you know, that's the reality. So and I'll tell you if you're if if you're looking for meaning, if you're looking for a struggle, if you're looking for something, fasting is incredible. It is. It will challenge you like nothing else. You know, you don't have to run an ultra marathon to do something hard and meaningful. You don't have to the only problem is you don't get a metal right. You don't train for it, you don't practice for it. You can't really post anything on social media. There's nothing really all that exciting that you can take pictures of and show off and tell your friends and put on Facebook and text. No, it's quiet. It's a quiet struggle. That's why a lot of people don't like it. There's no big They don't think there's a big reward because there's no tangible reward. Right, there's nothing they get. There's nothing they can show off. Right. You take a picture of your dinner, your fancy dinner at night when you're fasting, it's just an empty plate. Nobody wants to see that. But if you truly want to challenge yourself, pull out that Bible, borrow a bible, go to a thrift shop and get a free Bible if you don't have one. Right, and see what you can do seventy two hours praying for the people you love, praying for the people you hate. Finding it within your will power and within your sort of spiritual depth to carry on without eating, fight through the hunger pangs, to live your life the way that you're supposed to live it anyway. I'll announce that soon, PBN family. The nature of what we do will always be the same here at PBN, but the marching orders may change from year to year. Truth and clarity in twenty twenty six. Talk to you guys soon
