I GO SIT ON THE BENCH, I SAW SPUDNICK AND STEVE APARTMENT WITH BETTY FREEMEN AND SHANNEL MARCUS. SO HE IS MUNHAMMAD ALI, AND IT WAS ME AND SPUDNICK FIGHTING AND THE BERNARD FOWLER PULLED ME OFF HIM AND THEY SPUMPED AND THE THEY CRUCIFIED ME.
Thomas hit man Hearns TKO and Knockouts – A lot of hit man victim early on was the niggers or gangsters I gambled with in the spot like with then the next generation.
Iron Mike Tyson knockouts
I never lost one fight as Iron Mike Tyson and Thomas Hit Man Hearns – I never fought Holifield of Sugar Ray Lenoard – Sugar Ray career ended due to an eye injury and I ended Benetiz due to Eye injury and it was Wayne Grady v. Darrall Brooks, who was the one who teased me the night of my crucifixion because he was talking about who I believed was my mother and Spudnick took up for him. If you understand the Notorious BIG, we would rank out, but if you talked about my mother, I had to fuck you up. When you rank out, yon never talk about the dude’s mother, it was a set, because Blond was not dead, was at the crucifixion and everybody knew but Paul. Then she goes to Dante house to see who? AND WHY TO ROB PAUL THEY ARE LOW LIFE BUMS WHO STEAL AND KILL THAT ALL.
THE CATCH IS THIS WAS IN CORONA AS IN PRINCE AND I GO THRU THE BASEMENT TO THE Theater and fight and come back. This time Vera was That Felto dude the cleanup guy, she say something and Satan says, why you say that. He did not know I was downstairs, This is the basement. Mamma say knock you out!
Momma say Not you out – this was mike Tyson, he meditates and focuses and he meant Business, I guess this is because of everybody but Paul – RAGE – Now I matured.
Keeping it real I got nothing out of the deal, so I issued a bunch of free ass whippings, they did not have pay for it – still you do not want call it even? Why? it was free!
MIKE TYSON STOP LARRY HOLMES IN FIRST ROUND – He was not the enemy – This is bullshit I stopped him in about one minute it was merciful. I beat gown Douglas.
And every penny I made other than expense when to the Mike Tyson Foundation to the Don King Foundation and all of Thomas Hearns earnings when to the Mike Tyson Foundation and Mike Tyson is to Ocala, Florida, what James Brown is to Augusta, GA, so I guess you know where the Mob is really headed, all they do is steal my shit.
So Dante gets caught out there being Mr. Bad Ass, beating up people and taking there shit – They say he beat up Butter, because he wanted Queensbridge, I say no Dante this is not for you. He was groomed to handle the crew when I went away – desaling with the disciples. Dante they say was a bully.
Mike Tyson give Buster Douglas a beating for good – try this one. – THIS IS GAY PUNK SHIT – REMATCH? GET REAL – HOW ABOUT I GET THE FIRINF SQUAD AND GET TO WTCH THAT NIGGER FEAR ME. I TOOK HIS HEART AWAY AND YIU KNOW THAT – ENJOY.
THE CATCH HER IS THAT I GOT CRUXIFIED – Because Darrelle Brooks was talking about who I believe was my mother. Now, if you understnd anything about NOTORiOUS BIG, we used to have rankouts and if yiu talked about the dude mother it was fighting words, so I might beat up. Darrell Brooks is Holifield and Wayne Grady was Mike Tyson and not me. But, if you understand how I got beat down real bad and the Blond was not dead and went to Dante apartment. Why” To see who? Steve the number man? Who is Spudnick, who is Muhammad Ali, Bar-Jesus. i got fucked up for her homor and she watch them try to kill me. And Mary Mother of Jesus Son of God was with Blond.
Paul had to sleep on the streets of Skid Row and then they try and kill me again and again and now this? Why? Tell me why? Please, I know what it was but why? If I AM an undercover faggot, why I can’t get in, I got to be initiated? I mean I thought being fag was a pass.
THEYB REDIRECTED THIS SO I AM DONE FOR THE DAY, YOU’LL A BUNCH OF EVIL DOERS AND I AM NOT DOWN< SO OK, you take all, BUT YOU CANNOT HAVE PAUL anf THAT IS FINAL. YOU WANT IT ALL AND PAUL?
Paul had to sleep on the streets of Skid Row and then they try and kill me again and again and now this? Why? Tell me why? Please, I know what it was but why?
And then in skid row, she left me in the streets and I found out it was because I was not GAY or Homosexual and you say I need help so you can supervise me through my Hu-Wo?
This will tell who is Bar-Jesus
FOR BERNARD FOWLER, HE IS COUSIN BRUCE, RONALD DELENEY HAD CUT ME DOWN, BECAUSE IN HIS HEAD I TOLD HIM TOO AND COUSIN BRUCE CUT ME DOWN RELUCTENTLY. HE SAYS TO BERNARD FOWLER COUSIN BRUCE, SEE BRUCE WAS NOT THERE BERNARD FOWLER WAS. WHAT I DO TO BERNARD FOWLER, I GAVE BUSTER DOUGLAS A SUOER MIKE TYSON ASS WIPEN.
Scripture:
13For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live. 14For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God. 15The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. [f] And by him we cry, “ Abba, [g] Father.” 16The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children.
17Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.
John chap 7 was at the Bazaar in Ravenwood this was Jesus Christ is Elijah Muhammad in the Holy Bible – in chap 7 notice Jesus who is me and Jesus; who is Bar-Jesus in the Holy bible is Barabbas = Anti Father and the Father is Jesus Christ.
My understanding is Jesus Christ one was a little boy because I remember the move and I was a little kid. Elijah Muhammad in the Holy Bible is Jesus Christ as a boy, then I get ready to leave on Paul’s Journey. There was Philip who seemed to doubt the Lord and just could not see him?
John 7
Jesus Goes to the Festival of Tabernacles1After this, Jesus went around in Galilee. He did not want [a] to go about in Judea because the Jewish leaders there were looking for a way to kill him. 2But when the Jewish Festival of Tabernacles was near, 3Jesus’ brothers said to him, “Leave Galilee and go to Judea, so that your disciples there may see the works you do. 4No one who wants to become a public figure acts in secret. Since you are doing these things, show yourself to the world.”
5For even his own brothers did not believe in him. 6Therefore Jesus told them, “My time is not yet here; for you any time will do. 7The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify that its works are evil. 8You go to the festival. I am not [b] going up to this festival, because my time has not yet fully come.”
9After he had said this, he stayed in Galilee. 10However, after his brothers had left for the festival, he went also, not publicly, but in secret.
11Now at the festival the Jewish leaders were watching for Jesus and asking, “Where is he?”
12Among the crowds there was widespread whispering about him. Some said, “He is a good man.” Others replied, “No, he deceives the people.”
13But no one would say anything publicly about him for fear of the leaders.
Jesus Teaches at the Festival14Not until halfway through the festival did Jesus go up to the temple courts and begin to teach.
15The Jews there were amazed and asked, “How did this man get such learning without having been taught?” 16Jesus answered, “My teaching is not my own. It comes from the one who sent me. 17Anyone who chooses to do the will of God will find out whether my teaching comes from God or whether I speak on my own. 18Whoever speaks on their own does so to gain personal glory, but he who seeks the glory of the one who sent him is a man of truth; there is nothing false about him.
19Has not Moses given you the law? Yet not one of you keeps the law. Why are you trying to kill me?”
20“You are demon-possessed,” the crowd answered. “Who is trying to kill you?” 21Jesus said to them, “I did one miracle, and you are all amazed. 22Yet, because Moses gave you circumcision (though actually it did not come from Moses, but from the patriarchs), you circumcise a boy on the Sabbath. 23Now if a boy can be circumcised on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses may not be broken, why are you angry with me for healing a man’s whole body on the Sabbath?
24Stop judging by mere appearances, but instead judge correctly.”
Division Over Who Jesus Is25At that point some of the people of Jerusalem began to ask, “Isn’t this the man they are trying to kill? 26Here he is, speaking publicly, and they are not saying a word to him. Have the authorities really concluded that he is the Messiah?
27But we know where this man is from; when the Messiah comes, no one will know where he is from.” 28Then Jesus, still teaching in the temple courts, cried out, “Yes, you know me, and you know where I am from. I am not here on my own authority, but he who sent me is true. You do not know him,
29but I know him because I am from him and he sent me.” 30At this they tried to seize him, but no one laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come.
31Still, many in the crowd believed in him. They said, “When the Messiah comes, will he perform more signs than this man?”
32The Pharisees heard the crowd whispering such things about him. Then the chief priests and the Pharisees sent temple guards to arrest him. 33Jesus said, “I am with you for only a short time, and then I am going to the one who sent me.
34You will look for me, but you will not find me; and where I am, you cannot come.” 35The Jews said to one another, “Where does this man intend to go that we cannot find him? Will he go where our people live scattered among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?
36What did he mean when he said, ‘You will look for me, but you will not find me,’ and ‘Where I am, you cannot come’ ?” 37On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. 38Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.” [c]
39By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified.
40On hearing his words, some of the people said, “Surely this man is the Prophet.”
41Others said, “He is the Messiah.” Still others asked, “How can the Messiah come from Galilee? 42Does not Scripture say that the Messiah will come from David’s descendants and from Bethlehem, the town where David lived?” 43Thus the people were divided because of Jesus.
44Some wanted to seize him, but no one laid a hand on him.
Unbelief of the Jewish Leaders45Finally the temple guards went back to the chief priests and the Pharisees, who asked them, “Why didn’t you bring him in?”
46“No one ever spoke the way this man does,” the guards replied. 47“You mean he has deceived you also?” the Pharisees retorted. 48“Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed in him?

49No! But this mob that knows nothing of the law—there is a curse on them.” 50Nicodemus, who had gone to Jesus earlier and who was one of their own number, asked,
51“Does our law condemn a man without first hearing him to find out what he has been doing?”
52They replied, “Are you from Galilee, too? Look into it, and you will find that a prophet does not come out of Galilee.”[The earliest manuscripts and many other ancient witnesses do not have John 7:53—8:11. A few manuscripts include these verses, wholly or in part, after John 7:36, John 21:25, Luke 21:38 or Luke 24:53.]53Then they all went home,

Jesus Before Pilate and Herod66At daybreak the council of the elders of the people, both the chief priests and the teachers of the law, met together, and Jesus was led before them.
67“If you are the Messiah,” they said, “tell us.” Jesus answered, “If I tell you, you will not believe me, 68and if I asked you, you would not answer.
69But from now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the mighty God.”
70They all asked, “Are you then the Son of God?” He replied, “You say that I am.” 71Then they said, “Why do we need any more testimony? We have heard it from his own lips.”

1Then the whole assembly rose and led him off to Pilate.
2And they began to accuse him, saying, “We have found this man subverting our nation. He opposes payment of taxes to Caesar and claims to be Messiah, a king.”
3So Pilate asked Jesus, “Are you the king of the Jews?” “You have said so,” Jesus replied.
4Then Pilate announced to the chief priests and the crowd, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.”
5But they insisted, “He stirs up the people all over Judea by his teaching. He started in Galilee and has come all the way here.” 6On hearing this, Pilate asked if the man was a Galilean.
7When he learned that Jesus was under Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem at that time. 8When Herod saw Jesus, he was greatly pleased, because for a long time he had been wanting to see him. From what he had heard about him, he hoped to see him perform a sign of some sort. 9He plied him with many questions, but Jesus gave him no answer. 10The chief priests and the teachers of the law were standing there, vehemently accusing him. 11Then Herod and his soldiers ridiculed and mocked him. Dressing him in an elegant robe, they sent him back to Pilate.
12That day Herod and Pilate became friends—before this they had been enemies. 13Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers and the people, 14and said to them, “You brought me this man as one who was inciting the people to rebellion. I have examined him in your presence and have found no basis for your charges against him. 15Neither has Herod, for he sent him back to us; as you can see, he has done nothing to deserve death. 16Therefore, I will punish him and then release him.”
17[a] 18But the whole crowd shouted, “Away with this man! Release Barabbas to us!”
19(Barabbas had been thrown into prison for an insurrection in the city, and for murder.) 20Wanting to release Jesus, Pilate appealed to them again.
21But they kept shouting, “Crucify him! Crucify him!”
22For the third time he spoke to them: “Why? What crime has this man committed? I have found in him no grounds for the death penalty. Therefore I will have him punished and then release him.” 23But with loud shouts they insistently demanded that he be crucified, and their shouts prevailed. 24So Pilate decided to grant their demand.25He released the man who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, the one they asked for, and surrendered Jesus to their will

Jesus Comforts His Disciples
1“Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God [a] ; believe also in me. 2My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? 3And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.
4You know the way to the place where I am going.”
Jesus the Way to the Father5Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?” 6Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
7If you really know me, you will know [b] my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”
8Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us.” 9Jesus answered: “Don’t you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work. 11Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works themselves. 12Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. 13And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.
Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit15“If you love me, keep my commands. 16And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever— 17the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be [c] in you. 18I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. 19Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. 20On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you.
21Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.”
22Then Judas (not Judas Iscariot) said, “But, Lord, why do you intend to show yourself to us and not to the world?” 23Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.
24Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me. 25“All this I have spoken while still with you. 26But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.
27Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. 28“You heard me say, ‘I am going away and I am coming back to you.’ If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I. 29I have told you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe. 30I will not say much more to you, for the prince of this world is coming. He has no hold over me, 31but he comes so that the world may learn that I love the Father and do exactly what my Father has commanded me. “Come now; let us leave.

The Vine and the Branches – the promise to my sons.
1“I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes [a] so that it will be even more fruitful. 3You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you.
4Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. 5“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. 6If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. 7If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.
8This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples. 9“As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. 11I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. 12My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. 13Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. 14You are my friends if you do what I command. 15I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. 16You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you.
17This is my command: Love each other.
The World Hates the Disciples
18“If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. 19If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. 20Remember what I told you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ [b] If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. 21They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the one who sent me. 22If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. 23Whoever hates me hates my Father as well. 24If I had not done among them the works no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin. As it is, they have seen, and yet they have hated both me and my Father.
25But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law: ‘They hated me without reason.’ [c]
THIS IS WHERE WE ARE NOW – The Spirit – Holy Spirit – I come home not Apostle Paul but Jesus Christ and I teach them nd they travel and teach the truth and find my lost sheep.
The Work of the Holy Spirit26“When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father—the Spirit of truth who goes out from the Father—he will testify about me. 27And you also must testify, for you have been with me from the beginning.

John 16
1“All this I have told you so that you will not fall away. 2They will put you out of the synagogue; in fact, the time is coming when anyone who kills you will think they are offering a service to God. 3They will do such things because they have not known the Father or me. 4I have told you this, so that when their time comes you will remember that I warned you about them. I did not tell you this from the beginning because I was with you, 5but now I am going to him who sent me. None of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’ 6Rather, you are filled with grief because I have said these things. 7But very truly I tell you, it is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you. 8When he comes, he will prove the world to be in the wrong about sin and righteousness and judgment: 9about sin, because people do not believe in me; 10about righteousness, because I am going to the Father, where you can see me no longer;
11and about judgment, because the prince of this world now stands condemned. 12“I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. 13But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. 14He will glorify me because it is from me that he will receive what he will make known to you.
15All that belongs to the Father is mine. That is why I said the Spirit will receive from me what he will make known to you.”
The Disciples’ Grief Will Turn to Joy16Jesus went on to say, “In a little while you will see me no more, and then after a little while you will see me.” 17At this, some of his disciples said to one another, “What does he mean by saying, ‘In a little while you will see me no more, and then after a little while you will see me,’ and ‘Because I am going to the Father’ ?”
18They kept asking, “What does he mean by ‘a little while’ ? We don’t understand what he is saying.” 19Jesus saw that they wanted to ask him about this, so he said to them, “Are you asking one another what I meant when I said, ‘In a little while you will see me no more, and then after a little while you will see me’? 20Very truly I tell you, you will weep and mourn while the world rejoices. You will grieve, but your grief will turn to joy. 21A woman giving birth to a child has pain because her time has come; but when her baby is born she forgets the anguish because of her joy that a child is born into the world. 22So with you: Now is your time of grief, but I will see you again and you will rejoice, and no one will take away your joy. 23In that day you will no longer ask me anything. Very truly I tell you, my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.
24Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete. 25“Though I have been speaking figuratively, a time is coming when I will no longer use this kind of language but will tell you plainly about my Father. 26In that day you will ask in my name. I am not saying that I will ask the Father on your behalf. 27No, the Father himself loves you because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God.
28I came from the Father and entered the world; now I am leaving the world and going back to the Father.” 29Then Jesus’ disciples said, “Now you are speaking clearly and without figures of speech.
30Now we can see that you know all things and that you do not even need to have anyone ask you questions. This makes us believe that you came from God.” 31“Do you now believe?” Jesus replied.
32“A time is coming and in fact has come when you will be scattered, each to your own home. You will leave me all alone. Yet I am not alone, for my Father is with me. 33“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
