Latest / Prophecy Watchers / Is Bigfoot Actually Demonic? | Mondo Gonzales
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Many people in the church that I was pastoring, they
- 0:02Speaker 1: came and they were like, you know, during the past,
- 0:04Speaker 1: during the, during the, the candidating.
- 0:07Speaker 2: So, um, yeah, yeah, yeah. We all, we know, we
- 0:10Speaker 2: know you love Jesus and you teach the Bible.
- 0:11Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 0:11Speaker 2: But do you believe in Bigfoot? And I was like, what?
- 0:15Speaker 3: And so is that a prerequisite?
- 0:17Speaker 2: Because many of them had seen him.
- 0:20Speaker 3: Yep.
- 0:21Speaker 2: And so that, that I was like, man, I feel
- 0:23Speaker 2: like I'm home here.
- 0:24Speaker 3: This is great.
- 0:25Speaker 1: And, uh, I ran thousands and thousands of miles. I
- 0:28Speaker 1: have a cross country runner, a mountain trail runner, and I'm,
- 0:31Speaker 1: I'm running out in the, in the middle of all
- 0:32Speaker 1: these places that is, is central Mount St.
- 0:35Speaker 2: Helen's area. And so, uh, because of all that, again, I've,
- 0:39Speaker 2: I've enjoyed it.
- 0:40Speaker 1: And even now all the stuff that's been happening, but again, I'm, I'm,
- 0:42Speaker 1: I've trained like an archeologist. So I want evidence, you know,
- 0:47Speaker 1: and it's one thing anecdotal, you know, I, my friends
- 0:50Speaker 1: or my brothers at the church would be like, Hey.
- 0:52Speaker 2: We saw him. That's great. I don't disbelieve you, but I,
- 0:56Speaker 2: I don't have any evidence of that. I didn't get
- 0:57Speaker 2: it on film.
- 0:58Speaker 1: And so there is a balance between all the anecdotal stuff,
- 1:01Speaker 1: which I don't dismiss. I don't believe everything, of course,
- 1:04Speaker 1: but it is still a basis of evidence. And then,
- 1:08Speaker 1: of course, the other stuff that's happened with DNA and
- 1:10Speaker 1: different things.
- 1:11Speaker 4: Well, I'll tell you, my research into it was purely, well,
- 1:18Speaker 4: up until a point, it was purely eyewitness testimonies where
- 1:21Speaker 4: I would talk to eyewitnesses and hear their encounters. And
- 1:24Speaker 4: then we launched this project. I want to say it
- 1:27Speaker 4: was maybe 2021. The audience was no 2021, 2022.
- 1:32Speaker 3: I came up with the idea.
- 1:33Speaker 4: I said, okay, I'm going to put cameras in the
- 1:35Speaker 4: woods in a place where I know these things are.
- 1:38Speaker 4: When I tell you, Mondo, the stuff we caught on
- 1:40Speaker 4: camera was, it was live streaming cameras where people would,
- 1:43Speaker 4: you could just hit it on your phone and you
- 1:45Speaker 4: watch at night.
- 1:46Speaker 3: The stuff we saw was ridiculous.
- 1:48Speaker 4: And then it escalated to this point to where we
- 1:50Speaker 4: started seeing this entity on camera and which looked like
- 1:54Speaker 4: a hooded figure with white eyes.
- 1:57Speaker 3: And people would be live watching. And I was like, well, okay.
- 2:00Speaker 4: And people would call me in the middle of the night, hey, James,
- 2:02Speaker 4: wake up, look at the camera. And I was like,
- 2:03Speaker 4: what is that? And that's when I realized that it
- 2:07Speaker 4: was more to it than just like this physical manifestation.
- 2:09Speaker 4: It had to be some type of spirits. We captured
- 2:12Speaker 4: things that looked like little gray aliens on cameras and photos.
- 2:15Speaker 4: We captured things that were moving so fast that you
- 2:18Speaker 4: would have to slow it frame by frame by frame
- 2:20Speaker 4: by frame to look at it. And I came to
- 2:23Speaker 4: the conclusion towards the end of that that it kind
- 2:26Speaker 4: of needed to stop because the more people watched it,
- 2:30Speaker 4: the more they showed up. And I was like, okay,
- 2:34Speaker 4: this attention is turning into worship real time. And they're like,
- 2:38Speaker 4: you can have 100 people watching, you have a little thing.
- 2:40Speaker 4: When you had 1,000 people watching, it was like they
- 2:43Speaker 4: were showing off for people. And I was like, this
- 2:44Speaker 4: is crazy.
- 2:45Speaker 3: And it's insane.
- 2:47Speaker 4: And so to the audience that's listening, I just want
- 2:49Speaker 4: you guys to know, I don't think there's anything wrong
- 2:51Speaker 4: with having an interest in it. But the interest, when
- 2:54Speaker 4: it goes to an obsession, it turns into worship. And
- 2:57Speaker 4: now you find yourself worshiping these things. Mind you, I'll
- 3:00Speaker 4: tell you another thing. Back in those days when I
- 3:01Speaker 4: was in that environment, there was a guy who I
- 3:05Speaker 4: did an interview with. And I'm still pretty sure I
- 3:07Speaker 4: still had the interview somewhere. And this is when I said, no,
- 3:10Speaker 4: this is 100% worship. The guy said, I owe everything
- 3:15Speaker 4: in my life to Bigfoot. He started the interview with that.
- 3:19Speaker 4: He said, I owe my success to Bigfoot. He said,
- 3:21Speaker 4: I owe my healing of my body to Bigfoot. I
- 3:24Speaker 4: owe my financial blessings to Bigfoot. And I'm on the
- 3:27Speaker 4: camera with a dude like this. I'm like on an
- 3:29Speaker 4: interview with a dude like, what? My mouth just dropped
- 3:33Speaker 4: wide open. And I was like, I'm about to end
- 3:35Speaker 4: this interview. And the Lord said, no, let him keep talking.
- 3:38Speaker 4: And I heard for the first time, like I would
- 3:41Speaker 4: call it the priesthood of Crypt is a monster because
- 3:44Speaker 4: it was a priesthood. He's like, no, I go to
- 3:46Speaker 4: the woods and I give them offerings. I go, and
- 3:49Speaker 4: I was like, this is crazy. This guy is actually
- 3:53Speaker 4: worshiping this thing. And I mean, he would have all
- 3:56Speaker 4: kinds of like sounds and audios and, and, and people talking.
- 4:01Speaker 4: And I was like, this is crazy. And he would say,
- 4:03Speaker 4: they will come through my walls at night and visit
- 4:05Speaker 4: me while I was in a bed. And I'm like,
- 4:07Speaker 4: and you think that's cool that is visiting you in
- 4:09Speaker 4: your bed. And I'm just saying, Mondo, it's, it gets
- 4:11Speaker 4: to the point to where ladies and gentlemen, you understand
- 4:14Speaker 4: that it's more to it than just some furry creature
- 4:16Speaker 4: running around in the woods. You kind of get what
- 4:18Speaker 4: I'm saying?
- 4:19Speaker 3: Absolutely.
- 4:19Speaker 1: Did you, in that conversation, oftentimes when people are interviewed
- 4:24Speaker 1: on camera, they share about the glorious things. But then
- 4:28Speaker 1: sometimes off camera, they will share some of the other
- 4:32Speaker 1: negative things that they don't want to share out loud.
- 4:35Speaker 2: Did he bring up any of that?
- 4:37Speaker 4: Yeah, he brought up some of the negative stuff. He
- 4:38Speaker 4: talked about stuff pulling on him in his sleep, but
- 4:40Speaker 4: to him, it wasn't negative. This is how I knew
- 4:42Speaker 4: he was sold into it. To him, it was, he said,
- 4:45Speaker 4: I was honored because they would touch me in my
- 4:47Speaker 4: bed at night.
- 4:47Speaker 3: And I was like, what?
- 4:49Speaker 4: What honor, what honor is it for something to pull
- 4:50Speaker 4: on your leg in a bed at night? But he
- 4:52Speaker 4: was fully turned over to him. It's kind of like,
- 4:55Speaker 4: ladies and gentlemen, it's like, you know, when you're fully
- 4:58Speaker 4: turned over to the Lord and let's just say you
- 5:00Speaker 4: wake up in the middle of the night and you
- 5:02Speaker 4: turn and you see an angel there and you know
- 5:04Speaker 4: you have the feeling that's an angel, you're like, okay,
- 5:06Speaker 4: that's an angel.
- 5:06Speaker 3: I'm good.
- 5:06Speaker 4: I'm not worried about it. Well, in his mind, that
- 5:09Speaker 4: was his protector. That was his God. And so he
- 5:12Speaker 4: thought it was a blessing. And that's when I said, Mondo,
- 5:15Speaker 4: I said, this is going too far and I don't
- 5:16Speaker 4: think I want to talk about this anymore because it
- 5:19Speaker 4: had gotten to the point to where I realized that
- 5:21Speaker 4: this is worship. And the more you promote it outside
- 5:25Speaker 4: of the context of Jesus, then the more you're just
- 5:28Speaker 4: becoming a priest for these things and promoting them. And
- 5:31Speaker 4: I think that's the danger. I mean, we're seeing that everywhere.
- 5:33Speaker 4: Have you guys seen that on prophecy watch where, um,
- 5:37Speaker 4: I know you guys from your perspective, don't do that,
- 5:39Speaker 4: but where people are coming to you guys and they
- 5:41Speaker 4: have this information on entities, whether it be UFOs or aliens,
- 5:44Speaker 4: but it's, It's what sustains them. It's what's made them popular.
- 5:48Speaker 4: It's what's given them their position on a mountain of influence.
- 5:51Speaker 4: Are you guys seeing that kind of stuff?
- 5:53Speaker 2: Oh, absolutely.
- 5:54Speaker 1: And oftentimes in the sense of vetting people out is,
- 5:57Speaker 1: you know, we get people who naturally, you know, Prophecy
- 6:00Speaker 1: Watchers started before I got here. So it has a
- 6:02Speaker 1: pretty big platform. And, you know, we do a lot
- 6:05Speaker 1: of things. And so people will come and they want
- 6:08Speaker 1: access to your audience.
- 6:10Speaker 2: And, okay, that's fine. That's normal.
- 6:13Speaker 1: But many times you come and you say, well, where
- 6:14Speaker 1: are you at spiritually? And so then when they reveal
- 6:18Speaker 1: that they're not, well, they are not on the same plane,
- 6:21Speaker 1: but as you know, they kind of have to guard
- 6:23Speaker 1: their language. Then you start realizing, yeah, we're not carrying that.
- 6:29Speaker 2: We can't.
- 6:30Speaker 1: We can't promote it because the angle behind it or
- 6:34Speaker 1: the substance behind it or the other accoutrements that come
- 6:37Speaker 1: along with all the stuff you're describing of the worship,
- 6:39Speaker 1: if they don't exalt the Lord Jesus Christ and his
- 6:42Speaker 1: sovereignty alone and what he did on the cross alone,
- 6:45Speaker 1: then we say, hey, you know, God bless you in
- 6:49Speaker 1: your own ways, you know, may the Lord guide you
- 6:51Speaker 1: to his son.
- 6:52Speaker 2: But we can't really promote it.
- 6:53Speaker 1: But we do see that where there's, especially in this world,
- 6:58Speaker 1: all the things you're describing, a lack of discernment. Yes.
- 7:03Speaker 2: The discernment of spirits. That's a spiritual gift, right?
- 7:05Speaker 1: But it's also something that we can do in 1
- 7:07Speaker 1: John 4, test the spirits, right?
- 7:09Speaker 2: We're commanded to do these things, but they don't do that.
- 7:13Speaker 3: No, they don't do that.
- 7:14Speaker 4: And I found that they actually evangelize for these things.
- 7:18Speaker 4: I get people all the time, since I've left that field,
- 7:21Speaker 4: I'll get people say, hey, you know, I want to
- 7:22Speaker 4: come on and do an interview with you and tell
- 7:24Speaker 4: you about my encounter. I say, well, I don't do
- 7:25Speaker 4: those anymore. Well, I want to talk to you. No,
- 7:27Speaker 4: there's no need for me to talk to you because
- 7:28Speaker 4: I understand what the encounters are. And I realized that
- 7:32Speaker 4: They're on a mission to evangelize for these entities. And
- 7:36Speaker 4: it's the same thing. I was saying this about UFOs, right?
- 7:40Speaker 4: When you really think about the kind of UFO and
- 7:42Speaker 4: alien phenomenon, there's this motif around it where you have
- 7:48Speaker 4: the evangelists that go out and promote it. You have
- 7:52Speaker 4: like CE5 meditation where people talk about meditating.
- 7:55Speaker 3: That's their form of prayer.
- 7:57Speaker 4: Then you have the financial arm that's been established of
- 7:59Speaker 4: it where they go out and get donations from the
- 8:01Speaker 4: federal government and they petition the federal government for research dollars.
- 8:04Speaker 4: And when you start to zoom out to like a
- 8:06Speaker 4: million foot point of view above it, it's an extremely
- 8:09Speaker 4: large religion when you really look at it. And then
- 8:13Speaker 4: when you look at things from the context of the
- 8:15Speaker 4: various different kingdoms of this earth and say, okay, well,
- 8:17Speaker 4: that's a little bit of kingdom of UFOs. Then there's
- 8:19Speaker 4: the kingdom of cryptids. Then there are the kingdom of
- 8:22Speaker 4: people who look into, I don't know, um, time travel.
- 8:27Speaker 4: And you start to see that none of it points
- 8:29Speaker 4: to Jesus. And you're like, wow, all these are competing
- 8:32Speaker 4: doctrines that people get involved in and it kind of
- 8:36Speaker 4: gets sucked into by default. And, um, what the Lord
- 8:40Speaker 4: has shared with me is no, I have men like
- 8:42Speaker 4: you guys who go into that territory and you'll go
- 8:45Speaker 4: talk about Jesus and pull people out, but you're not
- 8:47Speaker 4: going to get everybody out of there.
- 8:48Speaker 3: Some people are going to make their decision.
- 8:50Speaker 4: And I just think it's, I think it's awesome to
- 8:52Speaker 4: meet people like you who are doing the exact same thing.
- 8:54Speaker 4: You guys do it on a larger scale, but I mean,
- 8:56Speaker 4: it's just awesome to see it because it just goes
- 8:58Speaker 4: to show you that everybody's mission is not the same,
- 9:03Speaker 4: but you're still doing work for the kingdom, you know?
- 9:06Speaker 1: That's super important because, you know, again, as a pastor,
- 9:09Speaker 1: I'm in the local church there, you know, just preaching
- 9:12Speaker 1: the word, you know, all this stuff that local churches do.
- 9:14Speaker 1: And then coming here, I realized that we get criticisms because,
- 9:20Speaker 1: you know, we're not having, you know, Romans chapter 5,
- 9:24Speaker 1: 1 through 12 in the study.
- 9:26Speaker 2: And we're like, well, hey, look, we aren't a church.
- 9:28Speaker 3: We're a parachurch.
- 9:28Speaker 1: But we also realize, and we can share the testimonies. Hey,
- 9:32Speaker 1: because of you, I ended up coming into the Lord.
- 9:35Speaker 1: I was involved in all this other stuff and all
- 9:36Speaker 1: these fringe. And so we're like, hey, we're trying to
- 9:39Speaker 1: go out and reach some of the places that honestly,
- 9:42Speaker 1: as the church, they won't go.
- 9:44Speaker 3: Nope.
- 9:45Speaker 2: They won't, and I'm not even saying that they, as
- 9:48Speaker 2: a church as a whole.
- 9:49Speaker 1: Needs to, but we're filling a niche that God has
- 9:53Speaker 1: called us to, and others, again, like yourself, who are saying, look,
- 9:58Speaker 1: there's all these peripheral things. and we're going to go
- 10:00Speaker 1: out there, and we're going to talk to these people,
- 10:01Speaker 1: because as we know, they're being deceived. Going back to
- 10:05Speaker 1: the story that you mentioned, you know, in 2 Corinthians 11,
- 10:08Speaker 1: we know Satan appears as an angel of light. But
- 10:11Speaker 1: the next phrase that it says is that, and it's
- 10:14Speaker 1: no surprise that his ministers, his servants, appear as ministers
- 10:20Speaker 1: of righteousness. So there's no doubt. You'd say, well, would
- 10:25Speaker 1: a demon ever tell me to go be good? Absolutely,
- 10:28Speaker 1: he would tell you to go be good if he
- 10:30Speaker 1: can get your soul. And so here, all these things
- 10:34Speaker 1: were blessings. And I'm not even saying that even some
- 10:36Speaker 1: of those real tangible benefits that the demon wouldn't give those,
- 10:40Speaker 1: but they'll have no problem doing that. It's what Jesus
- 10:43Speaker 1: said in Matthew 16. What does it profit a man
- 10:46Speaker 1: if he gains the whole world but loses his soul?
- 10:49Speaker 1: Satan will give you the world and his ministers healing
- 10:54Speaker 1: whatever if he can.
- 10:55Speaker 2: Have your soul.
- 10:56Speaker 3: No, absolutely.
- 10:57Speaker 4: And it's amazing when you really dig deep into the encounters.
- 11:02Speaker 4: Let's just stick with Bigfoot because I have this tendency
- 11:05Speaker 4: to jump all over the place.
- 11:06Speaker 3: I'm going to focus. Let's just stick with Bigfoot.
- 11:07Speaker 4: When you really dig into the encounters of Bigfoot that
- 11:10Speaker 4: people have, they'll talk about mind speaking, where the thing
- 11:13Speaker 4: speaks to them inside of their head, which is intrusive thoughts.
- 11:17Speaker 4: They'll talk about them holding them down in the bed
- 11:20Speaker 4: at night, which is sleep paralysis. The manifestations that people
- 11:24Speaker 4: have directly correlate to demonic manifestations. Then when you get
- 11:28Speaker 4: to healing, there are people who I've talked to who say, well,
- 11:30Speaker 4: you know, I went into the mountains to find Bigfoot
- 11:32Speaker 4: so I could be healed of cancer. And I'll never forget,
- 11:35Speaker 4: I told this woman, I said, you know, when you
- 11:38Speaker 4: can't deal with darkness or be healed from darkness by darkness, right?
- 11:42Speaker 4: It's called complications. When you go to the kingdom of
- 11:45Speaker 4: darkness to be healed of something, you get complications. She's like, well,
- 11:48Speaker 4: I don't know what you're talking about. I'm healed and blah, blah, blah.
- 11:50Speaker 4: I talked to her a year later. The cancer was
- 11:52Speaker 4: back and it was raging through her whole body. It
- 11:54Speaker 4: was in one spot and had spread through her whole body.
- 11:56Speaker 3: And she was like, well, I'm looking for somebody to
- 11:58Speaker 3: pray for me.
- 11:59Speaker 4: And I was like, I'm not getting involved in that.
- 12:00Speaker 4: You need to renounce your gods, which is Bigfoot. And
- 12:03Speaker 4: she refused to renounce him. I'm like, well, I don't
- 12:05Speaker 4: know what to tell you. You may go find somebody
- 12:07Speaker 4: else who's going to deal with it for you, but
- 12:09Speaker 4: you need to renounce that God that you accepted the
- 12:11Speaker 4: healing from.
