There is Great Hope for All Mankind!
After a long journey of hardship and deprivation, and after a long wait for the final touches, right when planet earth has reached it's final extremity - "OCTAMAN - Rock of Offence" is now available. This blog will detail the continuing journey and metamorphasis of a mild mannered guitar teacher turned anti-hero of our time, as he stands up for truth and right in the face of evil opposition at every turn. There is Great Hope for All Mankind!
The saga begins. The journey continues. One man devotes himself to the single greatest cause in the history of earth, and is virtually and figuratively killed for his efforts, each and every step of the way. While the drug and sex culture thrives, while children are enslaved and evil prospers, watch how this lone man of faith struggles against the current, fighting the great enemies of us all - the world, the flesh and the devil.
The movies of our day that glorify violence and filth are backed by giant rosters of individuals who make large salaries for their efforts. Video games that promote death and destruction are made by huge companies with long lists of credits for writers, artists, producers, computer modelers and the like. Yet the cause of truth and right is backed by who? How many promote goodness and faith? How many have given their lives to make the lives of children better? The list of credits is woefully short.
Octaman sings about what is right and true, and what is lasting. He has devoted his life to a cause greater than himself. And because of it, he has been ostracised, criticised, attacked, persecuted, and boycotted musically. Alas, there are no musicians willing to take a break from glorifying sex and drugs and partying in order to back a singer who stands for something very different - glorifying Yahweh.
That's right, Yahweh. That word is virtually unknown in the world. It is God's name. Yet if you search for "Mohammed" you will find millions of search results, and anyone on the street knows "Allah" is the name of the Islamic god. Yet ask them the name of the True God, the ONE God of Israel and they will stammer and stumble and tell you they don't know. How sad! That the God of all Creation who gave us the means of our very existence is not known, nor cared about nor considered!
That's right, Yahweh. That word has been censored for centuries. It appears over 7000 times in the Bible, and yet was removed! One would think that the GOD of us all who gave us His Bible as a love letter from Him and who calls Himself our "Father" would want his children to know His name!
One does think that. One alone. Octaman - unashamedly singing the Divine Name so strongly that other musicians refuse to join in. They'd rather sing about beer. And even family members respond with silence, disgust - even hatred.
Undaunted, Octaman goes forth alone, fighting for the Truth single-handedly with music as his only weapon. And all who oppose truth and righteousness are the enemies of the new Kingdom, and unless they quickly surrender, they MUST soon suffer ignominious defeat!
