THE ORIGINS OF THE YEHOSHUAI FAITH

Throughout history there have been many forms of revelation or spiritual experience. It can be big and loud or soft and gradual and both are equally valid and worthwhile. Sometimes GOD nudges us and whispers at us and sometimes he shouts through a megaphone directed right at our faces. One such moment occurred on September 28th, 2020, when GOD chose to reveal himself to Mr. Damian the Scrivener unequivocally waking him up from his living sleep and imbued him and told him everything he must do. On this day, on September 28th, Damian Westfall received a radical conversion to the Yehoshuai Faith without even knowing what it was, but just being overwhelmed by GOD and submitting to everything radically, Mr. Damian saw light shining in the darkness and trusted it, he embraced it and submitted to it and its source which was Jehovah GOD JAH Almighty who is LOVE. This was not an individual conversion but the birthing of a new faith, a restatement of the covenants JAH already made with people in the past, but this time it was for the marginalized and the outcasts first. Finding the Yehoshuai Faith and writing JAH’S Book testify to GOD's sovereign will and his boundless love for people.

On his 42nd birthday, Damian Westfall, now known as Mr. Damian the Scrivener, found himself lost in despair and suffering and was faced with a choice: make something that leads to death or make something that leads to life. This was not gradual change or a slow dawning of faith, it was standing on top of Mount Everest and screaming out “Yes, Lord, here I am!” to your creator. Mr. Damian's experience was a lightning bolt of GOD's truth, LOVE and revelation, which shattered the darkness that had enveloped Mr. Damian's life. You see, for years, Mr. Damian struggled under the weight of severe disabilities, mental health challenges and a deep-seated disillusionment with the materialistic and hypocritical elements of the earthly church. But then Mr. Damian was suddenly seized by JAH and transcended space and time as JAH illuminated a new path and a new purpose for him, and for the world. This galvanizing radical conversion was not merely a personal moment of spiritual clarity, it was GOD shouting in Mr. Damian's face a new path and a new perspective.

This conversional revelatory experience in the Yehoshuai Faith is called Brodim. After experiencing Brodim Mr. Damian knew, he was certain that GOD had chosen him as his literary and theological vessel, a scrivener to bring forth a new holy book that would speak directly to those who have been cast aside by Christianity and society. Through this galvanizing revelatory conversional experience JAH began the next chapter of his ongoing story, a chapter in which a new faith is birthed, not for money or power or control, but for radical love, humility, empathy, mercy, and inclusivity.

After this transcendent numinous epiphany and experience, JAH placed a mighty compulsion inside Mr. Damian to write, to take GOD's dictation or receive texts written by GOD and write them down. This drive was not from human desire or will but was the full embodiment of GOD's mind, heart, and essence, which is LOVE. Yes, Mr. Damian heard GOD's voice and wrote HIS words down and so began the 45 days it took to write from dictation JAH’S BOOK by Damian Westfall.

JAH’S BOOK is composed of two volumes: The Quodlibet and Poems For Earth and is not merely a book, it is a living revelation from GOD meant to obliterate the earthly human false church, crushing the conventional Christian thought and practice. But what is more, it offers a new vision of Christian faith. In these pages GOD's voice can be heard drowning out Mr. Damian's own voice, calling out to the loveless, the outcasts, and the marginalized. Through Mr. Damian’s pen GOD speaks directly to those who have been neglected by the church and the world, offering them a message of love, hope, inclusion and mercy.

Every word in JAH’S BOOK is alive and infused with JAH’S presence and every passage carries the weight of GOD'S truth in it. The act of Mr. Damian writing down JAH’S BOOK was not an act of human creativity but an act of GOD dictating directly to a human being. GOD whispered words to Mr. Damian, and he wrote them down and sometimes GOD would move Damian's hand across the page as HE guided his thoughts and words to perfectly convey JAH'S will and message. This was not some book, some guide, some commentary, it was JAH’S BOOK itself and every word of JAH’S BOOK is infused with GOD's presence and LOVE.

Once JAH’S BOOK, The Quodlibet and Poems For Earth (PPL), were completed, GOD was nowhere near being finished. He had laid the foundation for a new spiritual community, a community that would become the Yehoshuai Faith. This wasn't a faith that amasses fortunes and creates outlandish cathedrals, instead it's a faith that rejects materialism and the trappings of the Christian Church, because, at its core, The Yehoshuai Faith was and is and will be a grassroots movement dedicated to living GOD's radical LOVE and ethics, of faith hand tailored by GOD to reach first the unloved, the poor, the oppressed, and the forgotten.

GOD's hands were in every centimeter of Yehoshuai, its principles were written by GOD himself. Just by looking at it, it is clear that it was not written by a human being but by Jehovah GOD JAH Almighty. We never need to feel ashamed of JAH’S BOOK or that we need to defend it. We don't need to defend it, because it defends itself. All one needs to do to know JAH’S BOOK’S validity is open it and begin reading it aloud and JAH will do the rest.

To further stress this the second motto of The Yehoshuai Faith is “We Don't Want Your Damn Money” a direct rejection of the evil and greed of most new faith systems that are grounded and created for personal profit, which the earthly human false Church of Christianity is steeped in. The founding of The Yehoshuai Faith and the writing of JAH’S BOOK are not made by human hands alone, but by GOD’s. Through the new faith GOD reaches out to those who have been overlooked, offering them a place of belonging and a message of transcendent love and inclusion from JAH.
