BAPTIZED IN BLOOD

WHAT CAN WASH AWAY MY SIN? I THINK I'VE HEARD THIS QUESTION SO MANY TIMES IN MY 26 YEARS OF LIVING ON THIS FLOATING BALL OF WATER WE CALL A PLANET IT'S VIRTUALLY BECOME RHETORICAL. NICE TO MEET YOU MY FELLOW HUMAN BEING READING THIS SECOND BLOG POST MY NAME IS JOSEPH WILLIAMS AND THIS IS "HELLSEMPTY THE BLOG." ONE OF THE MANY THINGS I CAN APPRECIATE ABOUT GROWING UP IN THE CHURCH IS HOW OFTEN THINGS REPEAT THEMSELVES ON A WEEK TO WEEK BASIS. I MEAN SERIOUSLY THE WHOLE "YESTERDAY, TODAY & FOREVER" CONCEPT MIGHT BE THE MOST ACCURATE DESCRIPTION FOR ANYTHING EVER. "GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME & ALL THE TIME..."YOU CAN PROBABLY FILL IN THE REST & IF SO CASE AND POINT. BACK TO "BAPTIZED IN BLOOD", IT SORT OF TRIPS ME OUT FROM TIME TO TIME, HOW IMPORTANT THE LITERAL BLOOD JESUS SHED FOR YOU & I 2024 YEARS AGO ACTUALLY WAS, IS & CONTINUES TO BE.  HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR THAT ONE SINGULAR EVENT THAT SPLIT THE CONCEPT OF TIME INTO TWO ("B.C" & "A.D") YOU (HUMAN READING THIS) & I (HUMAN WRITING THIS) WOULD LITERALLY BE COOKED AND FOR THAT IM FOREVER GRATEFUL. FUN FACT BEFORE I ENDED UP CIRCLING ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE CURRENT BRAND SLOGAN OF "HEAVENS CROWDED, HELLSEMPTY" AT ONE POINT THE BRAND SLOGAN WHEEL LANDED ON "NOTHING BUT THE BLOOD" WHICH EXPLAINS THE PHRASE BEING PRINTED UNDERNEATH "HELLSEMPTY" ON THE FRONT OF THE "BAPTIZED IN BLOOD" TEES & JESUS' BLOODY AND NAIL DRIVEN HANDS BEING PRINTED ON THE BACK (THE MORE YOU KNOW.) EITHER WAY THE ACTUAL PROCESS OF CREATING "BAPTIZED IN BLOOD" WHICH IS YOUR SOLE PURPOSE OF CLICKING ON THIS "HELLSEMPTY THE BLOG" POST, WAS A TEDIOUS ONE. LOADING UP MY CAR, DRIVING UP TO SAN FRANCISCO EVERY OTHER SATURDAY FOR WHAT FELT LIKE HALF A LIFETIME, LISTENING TO MICHAEL JACKSON'S "OFF THE WALL" ON REPEAT THE WHOLE DRIVE UP, MIRACULOUSLY FINDING PARKING IN THE CITY THAT BATMAN HIMSELF WOULD BE TOO AFRAID TO PROTECT (SAN FRANCISCO IS A LITERAL HELL HOLE) JUST FOR SAM TO GIVE ME THAT SAME TALK EXPLAINING TO ME THAT MY TECH PACK WAS STILL NOT ALL THE WAY THERE YET AND END UP LEAVING BOTH DISAPPOINTED & EMPTY HANDED (WHO KNEW THIS MUCH WORK WENT INTO DESIGNING A TEE SHIRT.) I'M NOT COMPLAINING THOUGH I'VE ALWAYS LOOKED FORWARD TO THE MOMENTS OF RUNNING A BRAND THAT FORCES YOU TO GET OUT INTO THE REAL WORLD, PUT MILES ON YOUR CAR (TAX WRITE OFF) AND GET HANDS ON WITH WHAT YOU'RE CREATING (THE INTERNET CAN BE SUCH A BORING PLACE.) I'M ALSO GRATEFUL FOR "BAPTIZED IN BLOOD" FOR FORCING MY HAND AT DIRECTING MY FIRST PHOTOSHOOT (ALWAYS WANTED TO DO THAT) WHICH IN AND OF ITSELF WAS A DREAM COME TRUE FOR ME; & ALTHOUGH I HAVE WAY CRAZIER DESIGN FILES AND MOCKUPS FOR PRODUCT ON MY IMAC I PLAN ON RELEASING IN THE NEAR FUTURE. I CAN'T HELP BUT GET THE FEELING I WILL FOREVER HAVE THIS SENTIMENTAL ATTACHMENT TO THE LEAD SINGLE THAT IS & WAS "BAPTIZED IN BLOOD..." THANKS FOR READING.
