Truth & Knowledge: Episode 41 – “Everyone Is Rich” In this episode, Trey Knowles reminds us that everyone is rich—but true riches depend on what you value. If you value God, then God becomes both your income and your outcome. As 1 Corinthians 1:5 declares, “For in him you have been enriched in every way—with all kinds of speech and with all knowledge.” In Christ, we are richly blessed: beautifully created in God’s image, filled with His grace, and empowered by the Spirit of Jesus who gave us life. This is our income. The outcome is that we can reflect God’s love richly to others. Without the Lord, life is empty and meaningless. Scripture warns us in 1 Timothy 6:6-9 that godliness with contentment is great gain—for we bring nothing into the world and can take nothing out. Chasing worldly riches only leads to temptation and destruction. True wealth is found in valuing people, doing good, and living generously, just as 1 Timothy 6:18 commands us: “Be rich in good deeds, generous, and willing to share.” Riches are not about possessions or worldly success. Jesus said, “One’s life does not consist in the abundance of possessions.” Instead, real wealth is trusting the Lord to provide. “My God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:19). Just as God feeds the birds of the air (Matthew 6:26), He values and provides for us. When we trust in the Lord, commit our way to Him, and delight in His presence (Psalm 37:3-5), we discover the richest life possible. Everyone is rich in the Lord—because what you value determines what makes you rich. God is our income, and God is our outcome.

Truth & Knowledge: Episode 39 – “The New You” In this episode, Trey Knowles explains that the old self no longer lives. Through Christ, we are no longer bound by the works of the flesh that lead to death, but now find our dwelling place in Jesus. He has freed us from captivity and transformed us into new creations—still in the same body, but renewed by His Spirit. This transformation creates conflict: the flesh seeks earthly desires while the Spirit longs for God’s will. Yet, as Scripture reminds us, if we walk by the Spirit, we will not gratify the desires of the flesh. Being led by the Spirit frees us from the law of sin and death, because we have chosen obedience to Christ, crucifying the old nature and sharing in His resurrection. The New Creature desires heavenly things, surrendering earthly aims in order to live by the Spirit. Though the flesh resists, Christ now lives in us, and by faith we overcome. As Paul declares, “I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me” (Galatians 2:20). Through Jesus, we are more than conquerors. Nothing—neither death, life, angels, demons, nor any power—can separate us from the love of God in Christ (Romans 8:37-39). In Him, the old is gone, and the new has come. God has reconciled us to Himself through Christ, who became sin for us so that we might become His righteousness. This is the reality of resurrection life: to live not for ourselves, but through Christ who saved us.

Truth & Knowledge: Episode 38 – “Dislikeable Fear” In this episode, Trey Knowles unpacks dislikeable fear—the fear of not being liked. He explains how living for other people’s approval leads to compromise, broken morals, and a false sense of worth. The truth is, not everyone will like you, and seeking universal approval is both impossible and destructive. Trey challenges listeners to consider: Whose approval matters most—man’s or God’s? When we base our value on human recognition, we live by others’ standards instead of God’s truth. But when we walk in holiness, our worth is already secured in Christ. As Galatians reminds us, “If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.” Dislikeable fear should not be the fear of the world’s rejection—but the fear of losing God’s approval. True freedom comes when we recognize that only God, our Creator, defines our worth.

Truth & Knowledge: Episode 37 – “Love Your Spouse” In this episode, Trey Knowles explores the biblical call to love your spouse with the same selfless devotion that Christ showed the church. Drawing from Ephesians 5:25–32, he reminds husbands to love their wives as their own bodies—nurturing, caring, and honoring them—just as Christ cares for His church. Marriage is presented as a sacred mystery, where two become one flesh, reflecting the deep union between Christ and His people.

Truth & Knowledge: Episode 36 – “Is Once a Criminal, Always a Criminal?” In this episode, Trey Knowles challenges the saying, “Once a criminal, always a criminal.” He explains that this belief is false because God’s love has the power to transform lives. Love covers a multitude of sins, and through Jesus, we are offered new life and the strength to turn away from sin. The message of the Gospel is that no one is bound forever to their past mistakes—through Christ, we are reborn.

Truth & Knowledge: Episode 35 – “My Everyday Operation” In this episode, Trey Knowles explains why his daily walk should never be disrupted. Drawing from Hebrews 12:2, he reflects on fixing his eyes on Jesus—the pioneer and perfecter of faith—who endured the cross and now sits at the right hand of God. He also turns to John 15, where Jesus describes Himself as the true vine. Trey reminds us that just as branches must remain connected to the vine to bear fruit, we too must remain in Christ to live fruitful, faithful lives.

Truth & Knowledge: Episode 34 – “Taming My Mouth” In this episode, Trey Knowles shares the importance of guarding his words—keeping his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking lies. He commits to turning away from wrongdoing, choosing instead to do good, seek peace, and pursue it wholeheartedly.

Truth & Knowledge: Episode 33 – “False Teachers and The Love of Money” In this episode, Trey Knowles explores how false teachers distort the truth, using faith as a tool for personal profit. He warns that they view godliness not as a path to righteousness, but as a means to financial gain.

I need to stop taking pictures and putting them on public display social media. I don’t need you to see me on the outside. I need you to see me on the inside. I am not an Idol. Money can do nothing for me, so why chase it? The gratification of sex and money is a problem. Flee from it. I will. 

Why would I want to admire myself more than others? Look at what I got, look at what I am wearing. Look at what type of car I am driving. Boasting showing excessive pride and self-satisfaction in one's achievements, possessions, and abilities: Chasing things that don’t make sense. This Image is not for me. I became a lover of myself and Social media was the material of my flames.

I will change. Not tomorrow, not later, right now. Selfish desires wanting things that have nothing to do with God. I need to flee from desires of gratification because these things corrupt my mind and spirit. 

Looking at people with money and fame will stir me in the wrong direction because I know that is not the answer to life, it is an illusion.

Some people will have a form of godliness but deny its power because they keep on living and desiring sin. I will have nothing to do with such people. They are a rash display and proceeding from a lack of careful consideration of the possible consequences of an action:

I will not make false accusations about anyone. I will not be proud. I will stand firm in the will to listen and in righteousness. I will not be a treacherous person. Unfaithful, talking with my mouth and not living it. My worship in Christ will not be in vain.  

Sincerely Trey Knowles

Atonement  - reparation for a wrong or injury.

the reconciliation of God and humankind through Jesus Christ.

Atonement is Jesus taking our place on the cross. Atonement is believing in Him and having faith in Him. Jesus Christ our savior

John 3:16

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Atonement from this evil world is the second coming of Christ. 

John 14:1-3

Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.

2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

I am just a child. I came out of my mother's womb beautifully, God made no mistakes when he knit me together. I had no tattoos and no piercings. My Image is clean. 

Just like is written. For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. Psalm 139:13

What do I see and what am I looking at? I see the people of the world having tattoos and piercings. Young kids and teens think it’s okay because this is what we see In the world. This is not the practice of God this is the practice of the world. 

Let me test my mother to see if she is a stumbling block to me. I truly believe if my mom knows the truth she will not allow me to get tattoos or piercings on my body. If she knows the truth and allows me to get tattoos on my body, then I know mother is a stumbling block to me, and she is not for me.

Disobedience is one thing but being a stumbling block is another because I have no money to do it, I am just a child. If my Mother is in her right mind she would probably tell me something like this. 

Trey, Trey, Trey, your name is being called by your Father, but your Father does not recognize you with this Tattoo and piercings. What have you done to yourself Trey, your Father ask. You were one of us what have you done to yourself?

I am so glad that I don’t have tattoos and piercings. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful,

 I know that full well. It is written in Psalm 139:14

Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves. I am the Lord. Leviticus 19:28.

It is written in Genesis 3: 9-10 But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?” He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid.”

I don’t want to repeat the something that Adam did. When God calls me, I am His. I look like His. I am His, I will act like I am His. I will walk in Him, I will live in Him, and have my being.

It is written in 1 Corinthians 6:19-20

19 Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 20 you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.

Image of God or the World. A Story of Choice

Truth & Knowledge: Episode 32 – “Christianity, Islam, and Judaism are Meaningless” In this episode, Trey Knowles argues that any religion without love is completely false. He also emphasizes that if a faith does not acknowledge the Son of God, something essential is missing. Referencing Matthew 4:4, where Jesus says, “Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God,” Trey concludes that unless a religion is grounded in this truth, it cannot be genuine.

Marijuana is fornication when it is used in a perverted way. Water is 100% pure, when water is diluted is no longer pure water. In the same way consider your body, mind, and spirit to be purified. When your mind and heart are diluted with Marijuana your mind and spirit are not the same.

Why would anyone want to dilute their spirit? It is written in 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.

Do you mix the temple of the Holy Spirit with Marijuana? I hope not. If you do you are following into a delusion and perception of the evil one. The Bible says clearly to be sober-minded. For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit.

You cannot set your mind on the things of the spirit if you are smoking Marijuana’s. And because Marijuana alters’ the mind it is considered witchcraft and sorcery when used perversely. Marijuana is fornication it is a footstool for the devil. 

And since we are the objects of God’s intense affection, His enemies are our enemies. This includes THE enemy, the Devil, the father of lies. Do not be deceived. If you are high on Marijuana, your mind is not operated by the Holy Spirit. You cannot tangle the two together.

 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some do not know God: I speak this to your shame as it says in 1 Corinthians 15:34. Anyone who believes in the faith tells you it is okay to get high on Marijuana belongs to the evil one. 

It is written in John 8:44. You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. Before you use the words, I can’t quit Marijuana, it is written in Titus 2:12. It teaches us to say 'No' to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in this present age.

Brothers and sisters, it takes a wise man to tell you this out of love. So you are no longer in darkness because you just read this article. It is written in 1 Thessalonians 5:4. But you, brothers and sisters, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief.

Therefore, preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. 1 Peter 1:13.

Marijuana is Fornication
