It has tragically just been revealed that the list is now out. This is the 10 people who messed around with God in 2024 and I know. You've already guessed. Who #1 is? OK. Firstly, the 10th person who made our list today is Kevin Hart. The comedian was just on the popular Kai Sanat stream when Kai decided to give thanks to God for the meal in front of them. This is what Kevin disrespectfully did. Food they were about. To eat to make sure our new streets are back.
Under normal circumstances, I would avoid talking about #9 because I personally believe kissing crosses for good luck is idolatry. However, I will make an exception because I personally also believe that the way that this boxer was treated is very wrong. This is Alexander Usyk, and he is the current heavyweight champion of the world. Now, before every boxing match, Usyk kisses a metal cross to demonstrate his Eastern Orthodox
Christian beliefs. But in December 2024, in his match against Tyson Fury, Saudi Arabia didn't allow him to do this. So if you are a boxing fan, I know exactly what you're thinking. You're saying it's because both boxers were only allowed to have water touch their lips before the bouts. And OK, yes, I hear you. But I can't help but wonder if Saudi Arabia would have been a strict with other religions. If you catch. My drift?
I can see why some of you would disagree that Saudi Arabia should not be on this list, but no one will disagree with who I have chosen as our number one biggest disrespector of Christianity. In 2024 #8 was another absolutely insane example of messing around with God. But this time it actually happened in a church.
In April 2024, a mega church pastor called Mark Driscoll was due to give his message at a Christian men's conference in Missouri, but sadly he couldn't get the image out of his mind of what he had seen take place the night before. You remember how I said that this was a Christian conference?
Well, the organisers decided it would be a good idea to set a pole on the stage and pay a man to do something in front of all the attendees that I am too ashamed to talk about publicly on the Internet. Anyway, listen carefully to how the events organiser I tried to shut down Mark Driscoll as he addressed what he had seen. Thank you I. Talked to Mark for 1/2 hour. There was not one word of. That one name I did not expect to make our list is Shaquille
O'Neal. For starters. I had no idea that the former NBA star is now a DJ, and DJ Shaq, as he's called, really showed some dark things in August 2024 when he performed his 360 show in LA. As you watch this, please know that I've blurred out some of this to keep your precious eyes from seeing things that God
would not want you to see. Number six nearly went as viral as numbers one and two on our list because it happened at one of the world's biggest sporting events, the Super Bowl, with one of the world's fastest growing stars. I spice. Did you catch it? Well, if you blink, you'll miss what she does next at the end of this prayer. What do you think of #5 and the recent drama that's been surrounding his name? Billy Carson has been saying a lot of dumb things about Jesus
in the Bible for many years now. For instance, you better have sufficient proof if you were going to claim that Jesus didn't really die on the cross. If you say that Jesus had a wife, or if you say you was a student of the Egyptian God Thoth, you better back it up with some pretty big evidence.
And I can promise you this, if you want to start teaching that God didn't really create the universe, but rather gods or advanced beings deserve the credits, you again better hope that you don't meet somebody who actually knows what they're talking about. Well, thankfully, such a meeting, or rather debate, went viral in December 2024, where the Bible scholar Wes Hough schooled Billy Carson for two hours straight. According to the Sinai Bible, Jesus wasn't crucified in that Bible.
Do you? Mind if I ask a clarifying question? Sure, when you say the Sinai Bible, I'm what are you referring to specifically refer to the Sinai Bible? Would you be referring to Codex Sinaticus like the codex that comes? OK, that's why I was trying to get some clarification, because I actually have, I have a facsimile. So I have a photocopy of Codex Sinoticus that I work with in my office. I mean, I can go on right now, Codex Sinoticus and I can look up Matthew 27 where it has Jesus
being crucified. And that's in Codex Sinoticus or John 19 or any of the other ones. So my confusion is that it, it doesn't read any differently. Where was that piece? I found a. Text where I was referencing. Actually, I was misquoted. I, I misquoted there. It's the Gospel of Barnabas. Please everyone, look at me because I'm really sad to announce our next name has reached #4 especially after his incredible profession of faith in 2019.
Kanye West not only isn't bearing fruit as a Christian believer with the many things he's been doing recently, but he is now openly disrespecting the living God, saying one of the worst things a man or woman could ever say. Are you in that space where you're comfortable enough to say, this is where I am right now? I'm still a man of God. Jesus still is king, but this is vultures right now. This is where I am. This is but I, you know, I, I have my issues with Jesus.
There's a lot of stuff I went through that I prayed and I ain't see Jesus show up because, you know, because I'm God and anyone who disagree, I'm the God of me. And you can't tell me who I am. I can't tell y'all. I could tell y'all. It's y'all job to listen.
I'm the God of me. Guys, the next three, in my opinion, are the worst things people did in the whole of 2024 to laugh at Christianity before I reveal #1 which I think you probably have already guessed #3 really does need to be mentioned because it particularly saddens my heart. England, my country, has fallen lower than you could imagine.
They just recently removed the word Christmas from Christmas markets across the land and instead they want to call them winter markets to appeal to all faiths. And whilst trying to erase Christ from Christmas is bad enough, the Church of England sunk even lower by funding a scheme which will try to drop the word church and instead swap it with a more acceptable name like communities. I'm confident you are shaking your head now but listen to this. They are also replacing Bible
studies for nature walks. This makes me so angry because we all know that the church is not the building, it's the people. So if you don't want to meet together and study the Bible anymore, fine. If you want to go on a nature walk instead, fine, that's fine. But don't you dare lay hands on what God has called holy. And don't you dare try and reinvent what Christ Jesus died for the church, just so that you can try and appease.
A few woke. People who've already changed every single corner of our society. I actually made a video on this subject when it was first released and I titled it something like they just removed church and I expect God will and judgments. So I do want to qualify my next statement now by saying this was not a prophecy. I can't even predict what my wife will do in the next minute, let alone what's going to happen in the future. So when I said this, I wasn't
prophesying in any way. But there is something we do know. We know that God will not be patient forever. We know that God will not stand by silently forever as his name is disregarded by the people. And we also know that what a man sows that he will also reap. So what happened three months later? The Archbishop of Canterbury suddenly was made to resign after the entire Church of England fell to pieces
overnight. Between You and me #2 could easily have made number one in 2023's list and 2022's list, but because it didn't quite reach the same scale as our number one, that's why it's #2 today, little Narsex, desperate again for attention, decided to be really original. I hope you can hear the sarcasm in my voice. What did you decide to do? He decided to laugh at Jesus Christ again, not any other religion, but Jesus Christ,
because he knows two things. A, he knows that it's made him really famous in the past when he made videos that disrespected biblical teachings in the Bible, like what he did in Montero. And B, he knows that we as Christians will turn the other cheek and instead of doing anything, we'll just pray for him. Which is, by the way, what I encourage every single one of you to do right now, not just for little Nas, but for all the people on this list today.
Let's pray for them that their eyes will be open to the truth and they will feel a true. Conviction of sin. For what they are doing against the living God. So what did little Nas do? At the beginning of the year he released a song called J Christ where he pretended to be Jesus on the cross. He then dressed as Jesus and whilst being dressed as Christ he then played a game of
basketball with the evil one. Later in the video he also dressed up as Noah in an attempt to laugh at what Christians believe in. Some would even argue that his TikTok promotion was even worse where he created a skit of him eating all of the communion bread and drinking all of the wine dressed as Jesus at the Lord's supper. So come on guys, over to you. Who do you think got the shameful crown for the biggest disrespect of Christianity in
2024? You were right, the Paris Olympics are our #1 During the Olympic Games opening ceremony they decided in a very disrespectful way to recreate the Last Supper. Which then and sent a ripple throughout the entire world. The organizers later released an apology video, which, if we're honest, wasn't any kind of apology. And all of this just left more and more people asking the same question. Why is it always Christianity? May I go deeper?
They not only felt that they had freedom of expression to laugh at Jesus Christ, but they decided to restrict Christian athletes from their own freedom of expression. For instance, a 16 year old skateboarder called Reyesa Leal won bronze at the games and apparently during the award ceremony, because she was told she couldn't verbally testify about her savior, she decided to use sign language instead to say Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life.
But I hear you, you say, come on Joe, isn't that just hearsay? Well, another example of Christians being restricted was the Olympic surfer Gabriel Medina. He was told that if he did not remove the artwork of Jesus Christ off his surfboard, he would not be allowed to compete in the games. The fact is this guy's Paris made a huge mistake and they lost the viewership of thousands of Christians with sports fans like myself deciding to boycott
the whole games. I didn't watch anything apart from maybe a few days later I saw that silly Australian dancer. Some believers, they even. Speculated that the. Blackout that happened throughout the entire city on the night of the opening ceremony was linked, and it was actually a mark of God's disapproval on Paris and the Games. So how do we untangle all of this? Well, I have a verse from the Bible that I think you should
write down. Psalm One verse one says, Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful, but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and in his law he meditates day and night. Why do I share this verse with you? Because I believe it's time for some of you to come out of the world. Did you notice how it starts with walking in the counsel of the ungodly?
You begin with just walking side by side with the world. Yes, you're looking straight ahead. Yes, you've got your eyes on God in one sense, but you're listening with your ears to what the world has to offer. You're walking on the path towards Jesus, but you're entertained by a little ungodly music or you're watching a little ungodliness on the screen that you know you shouldn't, but you don't worry too much about it because you're still moving
in the right direction. OK, then watch what happens to the next person. This man, he's standing in the path of the sinners. So now you're stationary. Now you've lost your direction. Now you're facing sin face to face and you're locked in. It's got your attention and you want to see what the world has to offer you. So you stand on their path and you mix with their ideas and you
start to love what they love. Then the final picture we see is a person who's sitting down in the seat of the scornful. Now you've joined them, now you're part of their group, and you're one of them who also joins in with all the laughter against the name of the Lord. Do you see the sequence here? It starts with just a little bit of walking. It starts with just a little bit, and then you're standing
with them. And before you realize that, you've settled down and you've become just just like the rest of the world. You see, the truth is this. We become what we allow into our lives. The more comfortable we become with listening to these singers, with following these celebrities and watching these organizers disrespect the Bible, the sooner we drift away from the God that we love and we start to become like the rest of the world. So what am I asking you to do right now?
Or more importantly, what might the Holy Spirit Himself be convicting you to do right this very second? I think we're all called to be separate, to stop lingering in the same sinful ways, to stop watching, stop listening to and stop being involved in all these things that the Lord God hates. It's time for you and I to repent.
It's time to turn our minds and our hearts away from these things and to turn our eyes on the Lord Jesus Christ, the one who experienced all kinds of scorn on the cross, the one where all the people turned against Him, all the people pointed at him and jeered and said him, if you are the Son of God, bring yourself down from the cross. And Jesus just took it. That was the time when Jesus was really made a fool of on the cross, when there he died in our
place for our sin. So can I ask you, has the Lord Jesus Christ not endured enough scorn already? Has he not been laughed at enough? That with all of the things he went through on the cross, with all the crowds laughing at him, with all the years we've had of many, many years, even recent years of people laughing at him, Has he not had enough disrespect over the years that the world wants to keep piling it on year by year? So now I am saying to you, we, you, whoever you are, we should
respect him. We should honor him, We should crown him the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords, and we should bow the knee to the one who went to the cross for you and me. Can I ask you, is he your King? Is he your Savior? Or are you like the rest of the crowds who just love laughing at Jesus, who don't see it as any big deal when the Lord is laughed at? They don't see His name as special. So why is he so dear to us as
Christians then? Because on the cross, all of your wrongdoing, the weight of your sin, the wrong things you've done in all of your life, all of that was laid on Christ, and there he died in your place so you can be forgiven. Have you been forgiven? Have you asked the Son of God, the Lord Jesus Christ, to wipe your slate clean, to give you a new start? Here we are at the beginning of 2025, and some of you, you're desperate for a new start.
Or the Lord Jesus Christ can give you a fresh start. All of your past can be washed away down in the river of forgiveness. It can be gone forever. And He can give you a new start, a clean life, forgiveness of sins and salvation in His name alone. If you really want it, it's yours. If you call on His name, He'll give it to you like that. Now let me put you under the test.
If the Paris Olympics are the group of people who disrespected God the most in 2024, do you think you can remember who the person was who caused the greatest disrespect to the name of the Lord in 2023? If you think you've got the right person, go and check out 2023's list to see if you are indeed correct.
