I have finished watching episode 1127 of Owen Benjamin’s livestream and one small thing he said stuck with me. This is a direct quote, “I’m not gonna get all biblical.” He said this meaning that he did not wish to discuss interpretations of scripture on stream. I accept that he might not be comfortable with disclosing his understanding of various passages of God’s word, but it seemed like he was doing it for the audience’s sake. My problem with this is he made it quite clear that he detested the concept of one being controlled by one’s own audience. I will pause here and state bluntly that I may have derived a completely incorrect meaning from these words, if so I apologize. Does he want to discuss bible verses on stream, but is holding himself back out of consideration for his audience? If this is true my response to him, and to all of my brethren in Christ who share these sentiments in their own lives is this: “I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.” Revelation 3:15-16 (KJV of course) . These two passages should be a proverb held close to the hearts of every disciple, its one of the reasons I’ve taken the moniker “Zealous Bear.” So, if you have it in your heart to perform any godly work, but are holding back so as to cater to your audience, remember these words. That being said, I know the Big Bear’s past, he’s a stand up comedian who has taken real risks in speaking the words he has on stage in front of whole crowds. Meaning, his track record shows quite clearly that Owen is not afraid of speaking out about things. However, God’s word is different. It is powerful, challenging and grave. Owen has the guts to come out publicly as a flat earther and yet he takes steps to avoid discussion of specific passages of the bible. Another note to remember however is this, no disciple should evangelize of their own will, it should be something they feel an internal compulsion by the Spirit to perform. I have learned the hard way that not all times are the right time to quote the bible, and that God sets up the perfect times and situations organically for the disciple to speak the words that he’s supposed to. The point is that one should use their inner voice and pray constantly, pray for a response, pray for the correct hand movements to get your keys out of your pocket, pray over EVERY obstacle in your life. As a result, you will be allowing God’s will to truly reign in you, because the bible shows quite clearly that men trying to fulfil the righteousness of God is futile. The tough and true lesson is that men need the direction of God in order to obey God, hence the need for faith. This tangent is pertinent to the current topic in the following way, Owen, if you want, if prayer confirms this is acceptable in God’s sight, and if you ever read this, set aside thirty seconds a stream to discuss a bible verse of your choosing. The most likely response to all of this would be the following, “but he’s a comedian, not a pastor.” My response would be this, he’s also a Christian with a large Christian following. After all, he is very tolerant, inclusive, accepting, permissive, lenient, pro-diversity and any other irritating synonym when it comes to cosmologies. If he perceives the supremacy of Christianity, and he must if he calls himself a Christian, give us thirty seconds a stream, and I wanna hear chapter and verse codes.
