Realizations, Part 3

December 2, 2025

In the final Heart of the Matter: Radicalized of 2025, Shawn McCraney closes twenty years of searching with humor, gratitude, and a clear new direction. Announcing the launch of EPIPHANY—a “non-prophet” expression of Yeshuans—Shawn invites viewers to join the movement on January 6, 2026, when it begins.

Before his final message, Shawn hosts the first annual Yeshuan Voxxy Awards, a playful, tongue-in-cheek celebration honoring art, music, writing, film, and humanitarian spirit. Between satire and sincerity, the segment spotlights how the “Spirit of Man” fuels human creativity, and how it often contrasts with the “Spirit of Christ,” which gives life and love beyond ego and religion.

Shawn concludes the episode with a sweeping summary of his core realizations: that God alone reigns, that Christ’s victory has already removed every barrier between humanity and God, and that the world now operates by two spirits: the Spirit of Man and the Spirit of Christ. He calls all seekers to walk by the latter: faith, liberty, and agape love.

The episode ends on a hopeful note: the world, he insists, is not falling apart but being renewed through the quiet work of love in the human heart.

LIVE FROM PLANET EARTH –
This is heart of the Matter Radicalized and I am your host Shawn McCraney
Tonight is our last iteration of Radicalized as we are embarking on a finalized approach of being a “NON-PROPHET” organization (BOLD GRAPHIC HERE) starting on Tuesday night January 6th 2026.

We really hope you will join us on that night as we explain the summary of our twenty years not of building but of searching and testing all things and the conclusions we have come to along the way.

Let’s begin with a prayer if you are inclined –

YAHAVAH –

In Yeshua’s name,

HOTM RADICALIZED

All of our content.
All of our recordings.
All of our books.
All teachings.
All interviews.

All fenced and accessible to you and searchable through our custom AI chatbot.

Ask it anything and it will speak – for us – exclusively. We recommend you do it in preparation for the unveiling come January 6th 2026.

We hope that by now you understand the overall view we have as Yeshuans and how it is markedly different that all organized religions out there which we see as inferior expressions of Him and His victory over all things in heaven and earth.

We hope that when it comes to Mormonism (as a religious institution) that you can hear us when we say that are not only not one bit less than all other religious institutions out there but they are in-fact superior to all of them – again, as a religious institution – and in terms of governance, financial management, leadership, structure, youth programs, missional efforts, etc. – the best – hands down.

But in our book that is like saying that the Gambino family runs the best crime organization of all the other crime families on earth.

Sure, the Gambinos give a lot to the community – donations to the poor, protection – they are literally a family oriented business right, organized, have rules and expectations, and have made sacred covenants to belong – but they operate on principles that are anything but of God – and hard as it is for members of the LDS church to hear, their religion of choice is no different.

In just one expression of our not-for-prophets (BOLD GRAPHIC HERE) work, we want to be a ready resource for LDS seekers wanting truth – the rest of them are free to remain where they are as we believe there are worse places to belong as a believers (with Calvinism being one of them).

Stay tuned because on January 6th 2026 we are ready to explain what few have known about our work and its relationship to the Church of Cheese and Rice of Rattle Day Snakes (that is in reference to their leaders).

Okay, instead of a last install of our 5X5 we are going to have the first annual Yeshuan Voxxy Spirit of Man Awards where I am going to use tonight’s effort to broaden Christian Culture to highlight by highlighting my personal all-time Nominees and a winner in each of the Five category (for whatever its worth).

Alright then, tune in next December for our Second Annual Voxxy Awards!!!!

(THEN BACK TO ME at DESK)

So, we have in this last quarter of Radicalized discussed realizations I have had over the years of doing what we do.

I want to summarize most of the major realizations and revelations we have experienced over the past 20 years for your consideration and as we move in a dedicated direction next year.

The first realization we have had is the single most important commandment in the world, the primary commandment is know the One True God and have no other God’s before Him – of any kind. None.

This is a heart condition and not always an “act condition because we all have to give attention to, and focus on other things in this life. But the central command above all other commands is there is One God and that our individual hearts for Him, our faith in Him, our trust in Him and love for Him, is primary, paramount and single.

The second realization of note that we have had is that God’s only human Son, God with us, had the victory over everything that has ever stood in the way of our having access to that one God.

All things – The fall, Satan, sin, hell, death, religion, and every commandment outside faith and love – have been put under His feet when He returned to take His bride as promised and that God has ever since reigned in the hearts of individuals who seek Him and not in buildings or temples made with hands.

Our hearts are His dwelling place and our relationship is unencumbered and direct through the Spirit – no intermediaries, no authorities, no dogmas or demands.

The third realization is that in the face of this victory Christ, the second Adam took the worlds inhabitants and spiritually returned us all to the Garden of Eden where all of us are free to choose and seek Him or not and will be rewarded, not punished for our decision. Rewarded here for not, rewarded beyond for.

The fourth realization is that because of all of this, the world – void of demons and devils – operates by two Spirits.

The First is the Spirit of Christ which is in all of us because of His victory and calling for us to choose faith and love.

The second is the Spirit of Man which I believe is an individual power over us in the world and a collective power.

The Spirit of Christ is the Spirit of the Living Christ and not the Mortal, and calls to all souls to receive and believe on Him. From this Spirit I personally receive realizations not revelations and the realizations are founded in the text read by His Spirit.

The Spirit of Man is a place from where I receive Revelations and pertain to this world and this world alone.

As stated, one application of it is individual, giving all of us traits, penchants, drives insights and skills that relate to this world and pertain to our ability to manage our material lives.

But I tend to believe, like Carl Jung, Hegel, Schopenhaur, Kant, and Nietzsche, and other thinkers who orbit around his insights, that there is a collective soul, spirit of this world, or Spirit of Man and that we draw from it, are inspired by it and actually create from its evolved influences – some toward evil and dark, others toward life and light.

These are the products and ideas of Man, made in God’s image and therefore the things we collectively think, do, teach and believe add continuously to this collective and influences the world for better and worse.

All organized religion comes from the Spirit of Man.

The Spirit of Man plays to my mystical, emotional, human side of existence while the Spirit of Christ is the sole power and influence in the things of God.

I personally tend to orbit and relate around the more dark elements rather than the light but the thing about the Spirit of Man is it all pertains to the here and now and ends when we physically end.

In and through these two mutually exclusive Spirits humanity exists – the former representing our will and ways freely chosen and lived by to some extent in the here and now with the Spirit of Christ representing Him and His will that we all choose to let reign over and in us or not.

Another realization we’ve had is that since Christ has had the victory over everything that has ever stood in our way to His Father, and since Love Never fails, and since freewill is central to how God made us, and because love believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things, that God, who is love never ever gives up on anyone – in this life nor the next.

We see the afterlife according to the Vision of John in Revelation as consisting of New Jerusalem above wherein all who are His enter and reside and a place outside of it where people have elected to be.

We suggest that the open gates to that Kingdom are a eternal invitation for people outside to enter in – if and when they choose – and this makes the afterlife more in our control than we might believe.

We also realize that in terms of organized religion Mormonism is not only not one step behind any other institutional religion but that it actually bests them all – not because its true, its just as false as the others in its religious teachings and demands but does church far better than others.

Because the Spirit of Man is the author of all religion, all religious affectations will end for all after this life and every soul will be rightly assessed by one thing – their heart and its possession of genuine faith and agape love. Period.

This realization enables those who believe in a similar way to love unconditionally and to let God judge and condemn.

This state lends to liberty that is beyond the pale of our flesh thriving on the Spirit of Our God who so loved each and everyone of us.

Right in line with all of this, we actually have come to realize that all brick and mortar religion with all of its intercessory claims from demands, attendance, tithes, bible worship are all a very subtle and sneaky form of Idolatry and like the Law to the Jews in Yeshuan’s day, many people have exchanged Him, the real living Word for such.

We maintain that where the Reformers created Sola Scriptura that the real go to is and has always been, Sola Spiritus and that when doctrinal differences exist between people of faith, the FRUIT of the Spirit of Christ should prevail – which is agape love – selfless, sacrificial and insufferable.

We maintain, for reasons too innumerable to articulate here, that the resurrection of the dead started after Christ returned to take His Bride and that it has been ongoing spiritually for every person who passes from this realm to the next.

We maintain that the spiritual bodies we will all receive is given by God, will serve as our mansion within the Kingdom and without, and that it is given to us by God Himself according to His good will and understanding of all things.

We suggest that in and through faith in Yeshua the Messiah life should become more abundant not less. We do not mean this materially but neither do we exclude such. But the abundance He brings is the most liberating love a human can comprehend and as a man once trapped in selfish, egotistical non-love, the magnificence of this liberty can only be described as incomprehensible.

What does it look and feel like?

A steadily decreasing willingness to judge anyone, especially to condemn anyone, to let God do that – to have mercy and compassion on the victim and the perpetrator, the lost and the found, those who seek Him and those who don’t, people of every faith walk and non faith walk. It forgives in advance every injustice, every wrong, promoting light which includes patiently seeking to bring those in the dark to its warm and life-giving arms.

We’ve experienced it – we know it we promote it WITHOUT dissimulation, without artifice, without exception UNLESS UNLESS our flesh gets in the way.

Thank God He reads our hearts and gives us grace for our mind will and emotions to catch up.

The final realization we want to share with you tonight, our final Radicalized of 2025, is that since Christ and His victory, the world is getting better not worse.

We will always struggle on earth with things in the face of God giving us freewill. There will always be people, who for all sorts of reasons, choose poorly.

Our response should be His love – not our anger, condemnation or infliction of punishment – unless its our job but that is a Spirit of Man thing.

We are exiting 2025 having arrived. We are unfolding what we think all of this means in the first HOTM Show on January 6th 2026.

If you have EVER been interested or cared about our efforts – join us. We see it as a monumental act carried out by the King.

Tell your friends. See you then.
