I did think of the same thing too. But I don't think he is making too much money. His interviews have been over the phone, and on web casts. He uses other peoples successful YouTube Channels.
His original vision was in 2018, which I also think was a significant time. He says Jesus just more recently told him to shout it from the rooftops. Joshua from South Africa says he has a little YouTube Channel that never grew too much. He said he knew the "agency of the time", so he began approaching "already established platforms'. That makes me believe that he believes. So that's when he contacted Vlad for that first phone in video at God's Voice Daily, then the cent twinz, and the rest is history. That's the order I watched them in. The rest of the videos began after that, and became a world wide phenomena. Old ladies making videos in their kitchens for the first time, young men making simple videos in their cars, and construction workers making confirmation videos. Crazy.
In his latest 2 hour long video, Joshua says: "I would rather die than lead the body of Christ astray". He says, he's "talking to the Body of Christ all over the world, "before we watch for the date, "before we put our eyes on the date, "before we focus on the date, "we need to watch for the Lord. "We need to have our eyes on the Lord. He says all the "watching" can become bigger than Christ. "The watching becomes a thing about, who is watching better than the other. He might be legit.
"No one knows about that day or hour,
not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
This can still fit with the Feast of Trumpets because it's a two day event. From sundown on Monday, to sundown on Wednesday.
I also think if there's any chance this guy is legit, I wouldn't want to be on the team that is criticizing him. Even though it is sort of a spooky thing to consider.
