The Son of Man has no issue identifying as the one betrayed, rejected, and abandoned by God because he is secure in his destiny. He may not know all of what happens in between, but his faith in the story’s ending is unbreakable. Redemption, justice, joy, and peace will be his and he doesn’t...
This is the perspective of the good son. He is well known, but he doesn’t get leveled up by God. He gets stuck in the complacency of the status quo.
The good son, who occupies the privileged position of firstborn and heir, must identify and relate with the rejected son in order to progress...
Quickly, we were promised a new paradise in this world. This promise is written on the soul. The good father seeks justice on behalf of his son for the betrayal of unfulfilled promises.
In order to get revenge against God, you must be able to get access to him. It sounds like you don’t know the one who desires revenge against God at all, so you’re going to be lost when I speak to it in a thread like this.
If you want to level up in your life, then you must submit to God by submitting to your reality checks. However, it’s important to understand that you will not submit to someone who has betrayed you and lost the moral high ground.
This is why it’s necessary to identify with the one who desires...
I don’t make a distinction the way you’ve done it here. We were promised a new paradise in this world. I demand what belongs to me, as promised, right here and right now. No conditions. If something belongs to me, I don’t negotiate conditions for exchange. This mindset and posture comes...
The Son of Man isn’t associated with the chosen one who is the rightful heir and firstborn. He identifies with those marginalized, left out, and rejected. Then, he refuses to be denied and rejected.
Why does he do this? It’s because he believes in the truth of universal salvation or...
When you sell all of your possessions, how will you feel? Poor in spirit? Despair? Fear and uncertainty?
How will you feel knowing you have to stand in front of a righteous judge? Nervous? Self-conscious? Insecure? Dread?
All of these feelings are associated with the Kingdom of God.
There is great value in bringing awareness to death, but identification with eternal life should come first. Death is the enemy of eternal life. Once that’s established, then we should strive to accept death.
Death is insidious in the way it sneakily tries to sever the connection to eternal...
Is the Kingdom like finding a treasure and taking possession of it?
In the Parable of the Treasure in the Field, the man finds the treasure, but then he buries the treasure, leaves to sell his possessions, and buys the entire field. So, no, the kingdom is not like taking possession of a...
Listen, whoever identifies with the one who identifies with eternal life will condemn their life, and whoever is condemned is not allowed to go quietly into the night. This is a sacred truth.
This seems to be a common phrase people use to try to empower themselves, thinking it will help derive more value out of life.
The Son of Man — the one who successfully navigates through the story and enters into eternal life — doesn’t view life this way. He trusts his name is written in...
“Very truly I tell you, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does. For the Father loves the Son and shows him all he does.”
In other words, my will is my God’s will, just like your will is your God’s...
The Son of Man has the authority to speak on behalf of God. To the degree that anyone is in union with the SoM is the degree to which that person has the authority given to the SoM.
