I am knocking people out of their horses; for they are busy in their own Damascus. I will blind them for a season to deal with their false traditions of Me. Traditions that are detestable before my sight for they have become idolatry. They have turned lies into truth. Their doctrines are doctrines of demons designed to move my people away from Me and away from my mandates. Their souls are defected with pride and lack of love. They approach my Word, when they do, to accommodate their traditions; they don’t come in humility to learn my ways. My people are perishing for lack of knowledge, but most of all, they are perishing for their lack of fellowship with ME. They don’t think is important; they have lowered the standards; they don’t want to learn about me. Where are the disciples? Where are the teachers? Where are the elders? Where are the pastors? Your fellowships are unholy, because that is what you desire. You think you know; you say, “all I learned I learned from the Holy Spirit”, but many of what you know is the result of your own flesh accommodating your prideful sins. Many are lukewarm, that is what you are when you call your self a Christian, but have an inconsistent prayer life. Your prayer life reflects your pride, that you don’t know how much you need ME, that you don’t really love Me, that you feel you can do all things through your own abilities. You are persecuting Me, says the Lord, in your silence, in your apathy, in your lukewarm example to the world and in your lack of love for one another, you are persecuting Me.
So I, the Lord God, I am knocking people out of the prideful horses of their lives as an act of love and I am changing your direction as I did my servant Paul.
An independent thinker with a profound call to see the orthodoxy of the church and passion for Christ manifesting together. Angel was born in Brooklyn, New York in April of 1968, he was raised on the beautiful island of Puerto Rico where he earned his B.S. degree in Sociology with a minor in Education from the Inter American University in San Germán in 1991. That same year he moved to Jacksonville, Florida. After working construction jobs for a year and learning the English language, his first job working with foster-care children in the capacity of youth care worker was with Jacksonville Youth Sanctuary in September of 1992. With JYS he was promoted several times as group home supervisor, legal caseworker, and program director.
While in Jacksonville, Angel studied a couple of martial arts styles. After earning his black belt, he became the founder of Good Fight Ministries as he used martial arts as an instrument to preach the gospel. In 2004 Angel was selected Martial Arts Instructor of the Year for the State of Florida and in 2005 Angel was inducted in the USA Martial Arts Hall of Fame where he also received the Christian Spirit Award. In July of 2005 Angel accepted his call to pastor a bilingual church in Winton, NC where he served for a couple of years. Five months later he lost his first wife to cancer in December of that same year. This initiated a deep valley of suffering in his life, a mountain of costly mistakes and the embracing of lifestyles of sin that are well documented through this blog.
In August of 2012 Angel moved to Fairbanks Alaska with his wife Rayette Casiano and six children who are now adults. In Alaska, Angel continued his social work-related career and his ministry of preaching, teaching and writing. Angel is the author of two books, Hope for the divorcee: Forgiving and Moving Forward and 7 Banderas de Esperanza: La Bendición de Yokdzonot.
In January 8th of 2020 Angel and his wife moved to Arizona. On June 8th 2021 Angel started his home church, not as a starting point, but as a closer way to how the church is suppose to look like according to Scripture.
