Should you give up on people when they sin? Does God? They may be tempted to give up on themselves, but when Samuel admonished the Israelites for wanting a king, he took a different approach. "You have sinned," he said, "but get right with the Lord and do not turn aside from following Him!"  Turning aside now would add one sin on top of another. That second sin can be worse than the first, for it can cause our spiritual momentum to go in the wrong direction.

My name is Gregg and this is episode 0.21g: Sayings of the Savior Part VII: A Look at Luke.   All of these aught episodes are made to let us build our Pope-colored glasses so we can use the same lenses when we look at history together. If you're lost, start at the beginning!   Today we continue our Sayings of the Savior series with a look at Luke, covering everything Jesus said in that Gospel that we haven't yet discussed–so leaving off things like the miracles we did in 0.20 and the parables and other sayings we did in earlier Sayings of the Savior installments- so we'll be leaving you in suspense right before the concluding few chapters discussing Jesus' death and His (spoiler alert) resurrection, which we'll cover as we finish the remaining mysteries of the rosary in future Catholic worldbuilding episodes.   We already covered the first three chapters of Luke gradually from Episode 0.14 to Episode 0.19, and we'll cover the last three chapters as we talk through the Passion and the Resurrection (oops, spoilers). Which leaves Luke chapters 4 through 21 as our focus for today.   Luke 4 starts with the Temptation in the Desert. As you know by now, it's not unusual to find parallel scenes in the Gospels, especially in the so-called synoptic Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke, and fitting with that pattern, we saw a version of this scene in Matthew, and it actually made an appearance in Mark as well, though the Mark version was so abbreviated it didn't actually assign any dialog to Jesus or Satan so I didn't zoom in on it–after all, this is Sayings of the Savior.   Anyways, let's see Luke's temptation scene and note what differences we see from Matthew's version.   In the first temptation, Matthew has Satan referring to multiple stones Jesus could turn into bread after his 40 day fast, while Luke has just one stone. I'm sure there's commentary that discusses this difference--it's the Bible, there's commentary for everything– but unlike the Mark episode, I'm not going to go into quite that level of detail with Luke. It's worth noting that when Christ responds with   LUKE "It is written: 'Man shall not live on bread alone.'”   GREGG he leaves off the second half of the quote from Deuteronomy 8:3   “but on every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD.”   which Matthew had included.   Then, the second and third temptation we saw in Matthew are reversed. In Luke, Satan first tells Jesus he can give him all sorts of power if He worships him, which, I mean, I guess things would have been pretty different if Jesus had taken him up on that. Like, serious plot twist. But nah. He says   LUKE “It is written: 'Worship the Lord your God and serve him only”   GREGG and then the third temptation in Luke's ordering is the testing of God's protection of Jesus. Rather than seeing if God will save Him, Jesus says:   LUKE: It is said: 'Do not put the Lord your God to the test.'”   GREGG After seeing the devil off, Jesus begins his traveling and preaching ministry and soon enough winds up in his hometown. This is a scene that showed up in Matthew and Mark as well, the one where Jesus notes that no prophet is welcome in his hometown. In Luke it's more thorough and frankly dramatic. Long quote ahead, let's get into it:   LUKE 4 16He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. He stood up to read,   17and the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Unrolling it, he found the place where it is written:   18"The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free,   19to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor.”   20Then he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fastened on him.   21He began by saying to them, "Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”   22All spoke well of him and were amazed at the gracious words that came from his lips. "Isn't this Joseph's son?" they asked.   23Jesus said to them, "Surely you will quote this proverb to me: 'Physician, heal yourself!' And you will tell me, 'Do here in your hometown what we have heard that you did in Capernaum.'"   24"Truly I tell you," he continued, "no prophet is accepted in his hometown.   25I assure you that there were many widows in Israel in Elijah's time, when the sky was shut for three and a half years and there was a severe famine throughout the land.   26Yet Elijah was not sent to any of them, but to a widow in Zarephath in the region of Sidon.   27And there were many in Israel with leprosy in the time of Elisha the prophet, yet not one of them was cleansed--only Naaman the Syrian.”   28All the people in the synagogue were furious when they heard this.   29They got up, drove him out of the town, and took him to the brow of the hill on which the town was built, in order to throw him off the cliff.   30But he walked right through the crowd and went on his way.   GREGG   So, just to recap, we have Jesus preaching a bit of a softball passage from Isaiah, promising good news to the poor. That was a long quote, so let's hear just that passage as a refresher:   “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor”   The good news part is clear enough In terms of freedom and healing, but what is the year of the Lord's favor mentioned?   By all accounts it's the Jubilee year described in Leviticus 25. You know how the seventh day is the Sabbath, a day of rest for the people? Well the seventh year was a “day”of rest for the fields, where they were to lie fallow, that is, go untilled and unworked, letting nature take its course for a year. Crops could not be harvested in an organized way, though what grows could be casually consumed by the owners, or by the needy,  or really by anyone, or by animals. Going further, personal debts among the people of Israel were cancelled in a levelling move. This custom is still in force in much of Israel, where it is called the Shmita. Of course, following the quasi-precept of “two Jews, three opinions”, application slash abrogation of this practice varies.   Anyways, the Jubilee year was not the seventh year, the Smhita I mentioned, but rather the fiftieth year, being the year after the seventh set of seven years, because symbolism. In the Jubilee year, things were even more intense, for instance going beyond personal debt forgiveness to returning sold land to the tribe of origin and to freeing Israelites who had sold themselves into slavery, basically a factory reset for society.   But note, this was only enslaved Israelites who were to be freed in the Jubilee year, the “year of the Lord's favor”. And this is where we turn back to Luke 4, because Jesus pivots the conversation away from the people of Israel to the fringes and even beyond the borders of Jewish society, to Sidon and Syria. But sending the good news to the gentiles is quite a bridge too far for his audience, who prepare to kill him in their rage. Like I said, quite the scene, and it's easy to understand why skeptics might place it as having been written after Christianity had already begun to spread among the gentiles and catch flack for doing so on the home front. My main narrative episodes haven't gotten far, but we've already started to see some of that tension, and it will only grow.   Of course, I've committed to getting my Catholic Worldbuilding stuff done before I dive back into the main narrative stuff, and to do that we need to get through the rest of Luke, and to do *that* we at least need to get through the rest of Luke 4.   After escaping the assembled mob, apparently by miraculous means of some kind because it simply says He walked right through the crowd, Jesus proceeds to do other miracles in towns around the region. The people who lived near Peter's mother-in-law must have really appreciated the assist, because in stark contrast to his hometown reception they tried to keep him from leaving. He responded:   LUKE 4 “I must proclaim the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns also, because that is why I was sent.”   GREGG Luke 5 opens with Jesus calling his disciples to follow Him. We covered the miraculous catch of fish that got Peter on board when we did our roundup of miracles, and other assorted miracles carry us through to Verse 27, when we have the Call of Matthew, known to Luke as Levi.   Matthew vs. Levi Is worth a minute. Matthew is the more common name for this disciple, and may have been his Christian name. But Levi is the name preferred here in Luke and also in Mark. One explanation I saw in multiple places is that Matthew is a Greek name while Levi is Hebrew, an explanation that suffers from being wrong, as Matthew is Hebrew for “gift of God”. A perhaps more successful explanation is that Matthew was a Levite, you know, someone from the Tribe of Levi, and things got a bit garbled. Or there was a name change that just didn't get recorded in Scripture or in any other tradition for that matter..   Matthew and Levi being separate individuals seems to be the least popular theory, so regardless of the particulars, your takeaway from this should be the same as it was when we talked about this last episode: they're the same person.   Either way, here's the call of Matthew *cough* Levi:   LUKE 5 27Jesus went out and saw a tax collector by the name of Levi sitting at his tax booth. "Follow me," Jesus said to him, 28and Levi got up, left everything and followed him.   GREGG OK, maybe I didn't need to go into all that detail for two words of Jesus, but hey, what's done is done, so “follow me” across a few more verses, where Jesus gets questioned about the company He's chosen to keep:   LUKE 5 Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?” 31Jesus answered them, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. 32I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”   GREGG That's good news for us sinners, I can tell you that much.   Luke 5 finishes with some parables, which we covered in the Parables roundup earlier in this series, so on to Luke 6, which opens with the grain-picking scene we've seen a couple of times already. SYNOPTIC ROUNDUP, you know the drill [airhorn], except I'm skipping rehashing the other two accounts, just, you know, general reminder that synoptic parallels are a thing.   Anyways, let's get another dose of that “Lord of the Sabbath” action:   LUKE 6 1One Sabbath Jesus was going through the grainfields, and his disciples began to pick some heads of grain, rub them in their hands and eat the kernels. 2Some of the Pharisees asked, "Why are you doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?” 3Jesus answered them, "Have you never read what David did when he and his companions were hungry? 4He entered the house of God, and taking the consecrated bread, he ate what is lawful only for priests to eat. And he also gave some to his companions.” 5Then Jesus said to them, "The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.”   GREGG Oh yeah, good stuff. Check my Matthew and Mark episodes if you want more commentary on it, I want to buckle down and get to John. Of course by that I mean John the Baptist, whose inquiry  gives us of the next section we need to cover. Of course, as is so often the case with these synoptic Gospels, this isn't actually a whole new section. This next chunk closely matches a parallel passage in Matthew 11. If you want to follow along, in Matthew it's the start of that Chapter, while in Luke we're at chapter 7 verse 18:   LUKE 7 18John's disciples told him about all these things. Calling two of them, 19he sent them to the Lord to ask, "Are you the one who is to come, or should we expect someone else? 20When the men came to Jesus, they said, "John the Baptist sent us to you to ask, 'Are you the one who is to come, or should we expect someone else?'” 21At that very time Jesus cured many who had diseases, sicknesses and evil spirits, and gave sight to many who were blind.   GREGG Oh look there's a batch of miracles that didn't make it into my miracles roundup, at least not directly. It's pretty vague, and it's unique to Luke. This small difference is exactly the sort of thing that gets analyzed to try to understand the relationship between Matthew and Luke, and like every other bit of Scriptural analysis you can find someone taking pretty much any conceivable stance. In any case, the reference to those timely miracles helps set the stage for the next verse, which is back to closely paralleling Matthew:   LUKE 7 22So he replied to the messengers, "Go back and report to John what you have seen and heard: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is proclaimed to the poor. 23Blessed is anyone who does not stumble on account of me.”   24After John's messengers left, Jesus began to speak to the crowd about John: "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed swayed by the wind? 25If not, what did you go out to see? A man dressed in fine clothes? No, those who wear expensive clothes and indulge in luxury are in palaces. 26But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet. 27This is the one about whom it is written: "'I will send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.' 28I tell you, among those born of women there is no one greater than John; yet the one who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.”   GREGG Now, I went back and checked my commentary on Matthew's version of this scene, and it was basically nothing. Which is fair, I was pretty deadline-crunched at the time and knew I'd be revisiting it here. But it's definitely worth noting that both passages have John the Baptist, who Jesus proclaims as a great, or even the greatest, prophet, both passages have this spiritual giant publicly uncertain about whether Jesus is the Messiah.   You could perhaps argue this was a ruse, but John seems to have been a straight shooter- that's why he's sending delegates from prison after all rather than asking himself. So it seems to be a genuine question. Which means if you're under the impression that having faith or even being the greatest prophet ever automatically means you have no remaining questions and can see all of God's plan perfectly, apparently not. After all, John had been the one ministering at Jesus' baptism, where Heaven had opened and the Spirit had come down as a dove and God's own voice had told Jesus: “You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased.”   And yet now John is asking, publicly: “Are you the one who is to come, or should we expect someone else?"   There's a lesson in there on vulnerability and openness to God's plan. Or perhaps a lesson in how everyone can encounter uncertainty, no matter how certain their role seems. We'll see Jesus go even further in questioning during the Passion narrative when the time comes.   Skipping a few verses of parenthetical commentary that can only be found in Luke, let's pick back up at Luke 7 verse 31:   LUKE 7 31Jesus went on to say, "To what, then, can I compare the people of this generation? What are they like? 32They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling out to each other: "'We played the pipe for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not cry.' 33For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, 'He has a demon.' 34The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, 'Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.' 35But wisdom is proved right by all her children.”   GREGG If you aren't willing to listen, you'll find any excuse to dismiss the message. But the wise will be shown by making the right choice.   After wrapping that up, Jesus goes on a bit of a parable tour until he winds up with a bit more family awkwardness In Luke 8:19:   LUKE 8 19 Now Jesus' mother and brothers came to see him, but they were not able to get near him because of the crowd. 20 Someone told him, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting CORRECT  to see you.”   21 He replied, “My mother and brothers are those who hear God's word and put it into practice.”   GREGG Ouch, but also yay, Jesus doesn't put His earthly family above others. Which is good news If you didn't start out as His family, though it might sting a little if you did.   The rest of Luke 8 is a bunch of previously-discussed miracles, so we're on to Luke 9:   LUKE 9 9 When Jesus had called the Twelve together, he gave them power and authority to drive out all demons and to cure diseases, 2 and he sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal the sick. 3 He told them: “Take nothing for the journey—no staff, no bag, no bread, no money, no extra shirt. 4 Whatever house you enter, stay there until you leave that town. 5 If people do not welcome you, leave their town and shake the dust off your feet as a testimony against them.” 6 So they set out and went from village to village, proclaiming the good news and healing people everywhere.   GREGG This Isn't the first or even the second time we've seen these basic marching orders, but it actually is the last as John is, well, a very different Gospel, as we'll see in our next worldbuilding episode.   Anyways, after feeding the 5,000 we get to verse 18, where Luke's version of Peter's confession begins. As with Mark, don't get too excited:   LUKE 9 18 Once when Jesus was praying in private and his disciples were with him, he asked them, “Who do the crowds say I am?”   19 They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, that one of the prophets of long ago has come back to life.”   20 “But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?”   Peter answered, “God's Messiah.”   21 Jesus strictly warned them not to tell this to anyone.”   GREGG   So that's three for three on synoptic Gospels having Peter describe Jesus as the Messiah. Only Matthew did the keys thing, though. Also note the messianic secret trope popping up again- Jesus will apparently reverse his gag order after the Passion, because the Book of Acts- which was also written by Luke, or at least by whoever wrote Luke, will be all about telling everyone Jesus is the Messiah.   Immediately after that exchange, Jesus starts talking about his future, and it's not rosy:   LUKE 9 22 And he said, “The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests and the teachers of the law, and he must be killed and on the third day be raised to life.”   23 Then he said to them all: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me. 24 For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it. 25 What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit their very self? 26 Whoever is ashamed of me and my words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of them when he comes in his glory and in the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.   27 “Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God.”   GREGG This is all closely paralleling Matthew, and Mark as well, though as usual Mark was a bit shorter, skipping the last verse about some standing there not tasting death before they see the Kingdom. Again, you can see why early Christians were basically a doomsday cult expecting the end sooner rather than later. Certainly *your* end will come, so, you know, keep that in mind.   We're going to skip the transfiguration since that's its own mystery of the rosary with its own episode, and there's another miracle account after that. So skipping along, come with me to Luke 9:43:   LUKE 9 While everyone was marveling at all that Jesus did, he said to his disciples, 44 “Listen carefully to what I am about to tell you: The Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men.” 45 But they did not understand what this meant. It was hidden from them, so that they did not grasp it, and they were afraid to ask him about it.   GREGG If my episode on Mark is still fresh in your mind, you may already predict where this is going, as this particular section is a close Mark and Luke parallel. Matthew split things up in different ways but for both Mark and Luke the conversation with a child and being the greatest in the kingdom follows immediately after Jesus states what will become of him, leaving the disciples too afraid to ask.   Let's carry on with the next verse:   LUKE 9 46 An argument started among the disciples as to which of them would be the greatest. 47 Jesus, knowing their thoughts, took a little child and had him stand beside him. 48 Then he said to them, “Whoever welcomes this little child in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me. For it is the one who is least among you all who is the greatest.”   GREGG The next verse is a bit of a random aside, but an important one as I mentioned before when it came up in Mark:   LUKE 9 49 “Master,” said John, “we saw someone driving out demons in your name and we tried to stop him, because he is not one of us.”   50 “Do not stop him,” Jesus said, “for whoever is not against you is for you.”   GREGG Skipping ahead to verse 57, we have some stray sayings that underline the urgency of following Christ:   LUKE 9 57 As they were walking along the road, a man said to him, “I will follow you wherever you go.”   58 Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head.”   59 He said to another man, “Follow me.”   But he replied, “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.”   60 Jesus said to him, “Let the dead bury their own dead, but you go and proclaim the kingdom of God.”   61 Still another said, “I will follow you, Lord; but first let me go back and say goodbye to my family.”   62 Jesus replied, “No one who puts a hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God.”   GREGG A bit harsh, but Jesus is like that sometimes.   Luke 10 opens with an long section on Jesus' next project, sending out seventy-two disciples, or seventy according to some manuscripts. Some may recall a previous seventy vs seventy-two discussion when we talked about the Septuagint, and I expect there's a reason for that parallel, but either way that's not the particular rabbit hole I want to go down here today. Instead, I want to note that we can have some fun with this Luke-only passage, and that we wouldn't be the first to do so.   You see, seventy is a long but not completely impractical number of folks to list off, and while Luke doesn't give names, there are plenty of extrabiblical sources assigning names and biographical details to some or all of the seventy. This passage discussing Jesus sending out seventy disciples was especially useful for ancient or wannabe ancient dioceses that couldn't trace back to a specific Apostle. Instead, lo and behold, turns out their founder was one of the unnamed seventy. Boom presto, a biblical founder!   Of course that's the skeptical read, it could well be that some such stories are true. But there are enough names assigned to the 70 that they certainly aren't *all* true, kind of like how there are at least four heads of John the Baptist floating around. In the end, as a reminder, Catholics are generally free to believe or disbelieve in the authenticity and or efficacy of any particular relic or tradition as long as they accept the fundamental teachings and authority of the Catholic Church.   In terms of the promised fun we can have, I'd like to announce a little side project, a game where I share a story of someone spreading Christianity and the next episode we'll discuss whether it's real or made up and what the sources are.   We'll start that at the end of this episode. For now, let's hear about the seventy slash seventy-two:   LUKE 10 After this the Lord appointed seventy-two others and sent them two by two ahead of him to every town and place where he was about to go. 2 He told them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field. 3 Go! I am sending you out like lambs among wolves. 4 Do not take a purse or bag or sandals; and do not greet anyone on the road.   5 “When you enter a house, first say, ‘Peace to this house.' 6 If someone who promotes peace is there, your peace will rest on them; if not, it will return to you. 7 Stay there, eating and drinking whatever they give you, for the worker deserves his wages. Do not move around from house to house.   GREGG Someone tell the Jehovah's Witnesses…   LUKE 10 8 “When you enter a town and are welcomed, eat what is offered to you. 9 Heal the sick who are there and tell them, ‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.' 10 But when you enter a town and are not welcomed, go into its streets and say, 11 ‘Even the dust of your town we wipe from our feet as a warning to you. Yet be sure of this: The kingdom of God has come near.' 12 I tell you, it will be more bearable on that day for Sodom than for that town.   13 “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes. 14 But it will be more bearable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment than for you. 15 And you, Capernaum, will you be lifted to the heavens? No, you will go down to Hades.   16 “Whoever listens to you listens to me; whoever rejects you rejects me; but whoever rejects me rejects him who sent me.”   17 The seventy-two returned with joy and said, “Lord, even the demons submit to us in your name.”   18 He replied, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. 19 I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you.    GREGG That verse is the root of some of the quirky snake-handling churches in Appalachia by the way…   LUKE 10 20 However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”   21 At that time Jesus, full of joy through the Holy Spirit, said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do.   22 “All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is except the Father, and no one knows who the Father is except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.”   23 Then he turned to his disciples and said privately, “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see. 24 For I tell you that many prophets and kings wanted to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.”   GREGG   Those last two verses touch on an interesting discussion throughout Church history, namely the fate of those who lived before the time of Christ.   Could they be saved? Observant Jews of the time, yes, certainly. But those who never encountered Christianity or Judaism because of when or where they lived historically has proven a bit of an awkward question for the Church. The “well you better go tell them” impulse has long served to recruit missionaries, but on the other end many did and do argue that it hardly seems fair to expect folks to follow what through no fault of their own they've never been exposed to. Granted it's less of an issue nowadays when very few folks worldwide haven't at least heard of Christ, but the question remains. Certainly the Catholic Church insists that all humans who are saved are saved through Christ, there's no other way. And yet the Church also affirms that God is not bound by time, as evidenced by the defined belief required of all Catholics in the Immaculate Conception, where the Blessed Virgin Mary was preserved from all stain of sin from the moment of her conception. Obviously that took place before the Incarnation, so it's not like the years going from BC to AD is a firm barrier for the saving action of Christ in the eyes of the Catholic Church. Indeed, by implication, the previously mentioned Jews who awaited the grand opening of heaven were able to do so by the work of Christ according to the Church, though given how many horrible things have been done to Jews in the name of Christ through the years that isn't something that tends to be emphasized.   In the end, I think you probably know me well enough by now to correctly guess that I land on the hopeful end of this discussion. By one means or another, all through Christ, I hope for all. But to be very clear, that's my hope, and for what it's worth. Pope Francis' hope as well according to a recent interview, but it's not established Church teaching.   Skipping past the parable of the Good Samaritan, let's go to verse 38 for Martha and Mary, an exchange that's my go-to analogy for the two basic types of service to the Church, with Martha being the “active” type and Mary the “contemplative”.   LUKE 38 As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. 39 She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet listening to what he said. 40 But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, “Lord, don't you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!”   41 “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, 42 but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.”   GREGG   The first part of Luke 11 covers Luke's take on the Our Father-covered in 0.21b- and the Friend at Midnight covered in our parables roundup. So skip along to Verse 9, which parallels Matthew's Sermon on the Mount, so it will sound familiar:   LUKE 11 9 “So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 10 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.   11 “Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead? 12 Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? 13 If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”   GREGG Skip ahead again, this time to verse 24, because verses 14-23 were covered under miracles:   LUKE 24 “When an impure spirit comes out of a person, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.' 25 When it arrives, it finds the house swept clean and put in order. 26 Then it goes and takes seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that person is worse than the first.”   27 As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd called out, “Blessed is the mother who gave you birth and nursed you.”   28 He replied, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.”   GREGG There's a reminder that relapsing can be worse than the initial lapse, and a nice compliment session preserved only in Luke. But then the tone shifts, and the rest of the chapter has parallels in Matthew:   LUKE 11 29 As the crowds increased, Jesus said, “This is a wicked generation. It asks for a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah. 30 For as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so also will the Son of Man be to this generation. 31 The Queen of the South will rise at the judgment with the people of this generation and condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to listen to Solomon's wisdom; and now something greater than Solomon is here. 32 The men of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and now something greater than Jonah is here   GREGG Then there's a comparatively light lamp analogy, which I kind of covered during the Sermon on the Mount commentary, but not in its entirety, so I'm giving it all to you here:   LUKE 11 33 “No one lights a lamp and puts it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, so that those who come in may see the light. 34 Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are healthy, your whole body also is full of light. But when they are unhealthy, your body also is full of darkness. 35 See to it, then, that the light within you is not darkness. 36 Therefore, if your whole body is full of light, and no part of it dark, it will be just as full of light as when a lamp shines its light on you.”   GREGG And now as we get back to a more challenging tone, and as Jesus targets the Pharisees and the teachers of the Law specifically, I want to give the same general note that I gave for the parallel verses in Matthew: do not take these verses out of context to justify antisemitism, which has no place in the Catholic Church, or really in the world. For one thing, keep in mind Jesus is a Jew speaking to fellow Jews here.   Anyways, let's continue: LUKE   37 When Jesus had finished speaking, a Pharisee invited him to eat with him; so he went in and reclined at the table. 38 But the Pharisee was surprised when he noticed that Jesus did not first wash before the meal.   39 Then the Lord said to him, “Now then, you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness. 40 You foolish people! Did not the one who made the outside make the inside also? 41 But now as for what is inside you—be generous to the poor, and everything will be clean for you.   42 “Woe to you Pharisees, because you give God a tenth of your mint, rue and all other kinds of garden herbs, but you neglect justice and the love of God. You should have practiced the latter without leaving the former undone.   43 “Woe to you Pharisees, because you love the most important seats in the synagogues and respectful greetings in the marketplaces.   44 “Woe to you, because you are like unmarked graves, which people walk over without knowing it.”   45 One of the experts in the law answered him, “Teacher, when you say these things, you insult us also.”   46 Jesus replied, “And you experts in the law, woe to you, because you load people down with burdens they can hardly carry, and you yourselves will not lift one finger to help them.   47 “Woe to you, because you build tombs for the prophets, and it was your ancestors who killed them. 48 So you testify that you approve of what your ancestors did; they killed the prophets, and you build their tombs. 49 Because of this, God in his wisdom said, ‘I will send them prophets and apostles, some of whom they will kill and others they will persecute.' 50 Therefore this generation will be held responsible for the blood of all the prophets that has been shed since the beginning of the world, 51 from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who was killed between the altar and the sanctuary. Yes, I tell you, this generation will be held responsible for it all.”   GREGG Let's take a moment to reflect on that last line: “this generation will be held responsible for it all”. It's surprisingly harsh, even for a surprisingly harsh Jesus, for Him to hold the generation he was talking to responsible for all the blood of all the prophets that has been shed from the beginning of the world. But there it is. I can see a case being made for these verses as part of a theological justification for original sin, though really the key verse for that is Romans 5:12, which we'll talk about later. Either way, given the emphasis on “this generation”, I don't think that's what's going on here, as original sin doesn't like, target specific generations.   So, what's up? Why is Jesus focusing in on the present generation, at least the present generation as of His lifetime?   Well, there's the key. It's His generation. Jesus is there, and all of the sin of history, past, present, and future, will be brought to account through Him.   Jesus, as always, is the answer. It's not that the world was especially sinful in the first century AD. But the answer to all sin was walking the earth then. *That* is why it's a generation that deserves a particular singling out.   Of course, that reflection- my own theological musing I should say, which is a dangerous thing to do and I defer to any correction that may come my way– anyways that reflection should not detract from the straightforward fact that Jesus is really taking the Pharisees and Teachers of the law to task here   LUKE 11 52 “Woe to you experts in the law, because you have taken away the key to knowledge. You yourselves have not entered, and you have hindered those who were entering.”   53 When Jesus went outside, the Pharisees and the teachers of the law began to oppose him fiercely and to besiege him with questions, 54 waiting to catch him in something he might say.   1Meanwhile, when a crowd of many thousands had gathered, so that they were trampling on one another, Jesus began to speak first to his disciples, saying: "Be on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy   2There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known.   3What you have said in the dark will be heard in the daylight, and what you have whispered in the ear in the inner rooms will be proclaimed from the roofs   GREGG Fortunately no one in our day falls into religious hypocrisy anymore, right? …right?   Anyways, the next few verses, once again paralleled with Matthew, put things into context, while weaving in hints of future persecution:   LUKE 12 4 “I tell you, my friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more. 5 But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear him who, after your body has been killed, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him. 6 Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. 7 Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows. 8 “I tell you, whoever publicly acknowledges me before others, the Son of Man will also acknowledge before the angels of God. 9 But whoever disowns me before others will be disowned before the angels of God. 10 And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven. 11 “When you are brought before synagogues, rulers and authorities, do not worry about how you will defend yourselves or what you will say, 12 for the Holy Spirit will teach you at that time what you should say.” GREGG After a break for a parable, the overall theme resumes in verse 22:   LUKE 12 22 Then Jesus said to his disciples: “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear. 23 For life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. 24 Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable you are than birds! 25 Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life? 26 Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest?   27 “Consider how the wild flowers grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 28 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today, and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, how much more will he clothe you—you of little faith! 29 And do not set your heart on what you will eat or drink; do not worry about it. 30 For the pagan world runs after all such things, and your Father knows that you need them. 31 But seek his kingdom, and these things will be given to you as well.   32 “Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom. 33 Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will never fail, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. 34 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.   GREGG Did you catch one of the most challenging things Jesus says?   “Sell your possessions and give to the poor”   This isn't the only place Jesus says that, but it hits a little harder when he's giving it as general counsel rather than as specific advice to a rich young man looking for specific advice on how to live well. If you have more than you need, your excess needs to go to those who lack. You will ultimately have to account not only for what you did, but what you didn't do. If you've seen Schindler's List, think of his regret after all he's done, that he didn't sell the car to do more. When your life is done, what regrets will You have?   I know I need to do more, part of this project is to remind myself of that and to embarrass myself publicly for my shortcomings. Listen to Jesus' message, don't get hung up on the messenger.   A few parables take us forward to verse 49, a source of top notch dad jokes about our matchless king. But Jesus goes beyond that, preaching division. His message is hard, it will not be universally popular.   LUKE 12 49 “I have come to bring fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled! 50 But I have a baptism to undergo, and what constraint I am under until it is completed! 51 Do you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division. 52 From now on there will be five in one family divided against each other, three against two and two against three. 53 They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.”   54 He said to the crowd: “When you see a cloud rising in the west, immediately you say, ‘It's going to rain,' and it does. 55 And when the south wind blows, you say, ‘It's going to be hot,' and it is. 56 Hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky. How is it that you don't know how to interpret this present time?   57 “Why don't you judge for yourselves what is right? 58 As you are going with your adversary to the magistrate, try hard to be reconciled on the way, or your adversary may drag you off to the judge, and the judge turn you over to the officer, and the officer throw you into prison. 59 I tell you, you will not get out until you have paid the last penny.”   LUKE 13 13 Now there were some present at that time who told Jesus about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices. 2 Jesus answered, “Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans because they suffered this way? 3 I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish. 4 Or those eighteen who died when the tower in Siloam fell on them—do you think they were more guilty than all the others living in Jerusalem? 5 I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish.”   GREGG That excerpt took us into Luke 13, which continues with parables and a miracle until verse 23, which is, frankly, basically the start of another parable, but not one I covered in the parables roundup so we'll do it here.   LUKE 13 23 Someone asked him, “Lord, are only a few people going to be saved?”   He said to them, 24 “Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to. 25 Once the owner of the house gets up and closes the door, you will stand outside knocking and pleading, ‘Sir, open the door for us.'   “But he will answer, ‘I don't know you or where you come from.'   26 “Then you will say, ‘We ate and drank with you, and you taught in our streets.'   27 “But he will reply, ‘I don't know you or where you come from. Away from me, all you evildoers!'   28 “There will be weeping there, and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but you yourselves thrown out. 29 People will come from east and west and north and south, and will take their places at the feast in the kingdom of God. 30 Indeed there are those who are last who will be first, and first who will be last.”   GREGG I recently saw one of the first verses in that passage cited as pointing towards the idea of Hell being full. After all,   “many I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to.”   Is fairly clear, and even accounting for Jesus' action as the owner of the house, in this and elsewhere ultimately those who are out on the cold are truly out in the cold. As much as I freely admit I don't get the logic of hell being populated, I also freely admit that the idea of it being empty is an exegetical stretch given passages like this. In the end, God reigns and I do not. I know what God asks of me, and I do it. As much as I like to know and to talk, I accept that I don't have and cannot have all knowledge.   Anyways, Jesus continues with a lament over Jerusalem we saw in Matthew, which Luke supplies with a little more context:   LUKE 13 31 At that time some Pharisees came to Jesus and said to him, “Leave this place and go somewhere else. Herod wants to kill you.”   32 He replied, “Go tell that fox, ‘I will keep on driving out demons and healing people today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will reach my goal.' 33 In any case, I must press on today and tomorrow and the next day—for surely no prophet can die outside Jerusalem!   34 “Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing. 35 Look, your house is left to you desolate. I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'”   GREGG And now with that note looking to Jesus' future- something he definitely keeps doing throughout the Gospels- we have something of an intermission, because Luke 14, 15, and 16 are all so full of parables that we've already covered along with all of Jesus' words from those chapters. Luke 17 opens with yet another parable, and then a miracle, so we're actually regrouping at Luke 17:20, where Jesus talks about the upcoming kingdom and talks about the end times, always fuel for a discussion, though I am skeptical about how productive such discussions are, given how Jesus opens the discussion by noting that the coming of the kingdom cannot be observed. And really, if there's something you'd be doing differently if you knew the world was ending--honestly that's probably something you should be doing *now*, because your life will end very soon in the grand scheme of things, and you can't rule out today.   Anyways, let's resume:   LUKE 17 20 Once, on being asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, “The coming of the kingdom of God is not something that can be observed, 21 nor will people say, ‘Here it is,' or ‘There it is,' because the kingdom of God is in your midst.”   22 Then he said to his disciples, “The time is coming when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, but you will not see it. 23 People will tell you, ‘There he is!' or ‘Here he is!' Do not go running off after them. 24 For the Son of Man in his day will be like the lightning, which flashes and lights up the sky from one end to the other. 25 But first he must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.   26 “Just as it was in the days of Noah, so also will it be in the days of the Son of Man. 27 People were eating, drinking, marrying and being given in marriage up to the day Noah entered the ark. Then the flood came and destroyed them all.   28 “It was the same in the days of Lot. People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building. 29 But the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.   30 “It will be just like this on the day the Son of Man is revealed. 31 On that day no one who is on the housetop, with possessions inside, should go down to get them. Likewise, no one in the field should go back for anything. 32 Remember Lot's wife! 33 Whoever tries to keep their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life will preserve it. 34 I tell you, on that night two people will be in one bed; one will be taken and the other left. 35 Two women will be grinding grain together; one will be taken and the other left.” [36]   [KJV] 36Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.   37 “Where, Lord?” they asked.   He replied, “Where there is a dead body, there the vultures will gather.”   GREGG Oh, hope you don't mind me throwing in a little bit more KJV there. I would have announced it in advance but I was kind of on a roll with that transition and didn't want to kill the vibe. I'm no scripture scholar but my guess is the reason the KJV keep having verses the NIV is skipping is because back in the day folks were more reluctant to identify a passage as an addition due to manuscript evidence, you know, just in case. Better safe than sorry. But again, I'm no expert. Now, if I ever do get a budget for this beyond basic hosting fees I do have an expert in mind, so periodic reminder I do have a Popeular Patreon kicking around somewhere.   In any event, that's it for Luke 17, and we can basically skip the first half of Luke 18, since that's a couple parables and related stuff we've already addressed.   In Luke 18 verse 18, we've got a familiar question, not only familiar because it already came up in both Matthew and Mark, but it's actually already come up in Luke as well, as part of the runup to the parable of the Good Samaritan. That parable was split off from the other synoptics, being present only in Luke despite being extremely famous. But this time around, the passage is a close parallel to both Matthew and Mark. Let's go!   LUKE 18 18 A certain ruler asked him, “Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” 19 “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone. 20 You know the commandments: ‘You shall not commit adultery, you shall not murder, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, honor your father and mother.'” 21 “All these I have kept since I was a boy,” he said. 22 When Jesus heard this, he said to him, “You still lack one thing. Sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.” 23 When he heard this, he became very sad, because he was very wealthy. 24 Jesus looked at him and said, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God! 25 Indeed, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.” 26 Those who heard this asked, “Who then can be saved?” 27 Jesus replied, “What is impossible with man is possible with God.” 28 Peter said to him, “We have left all we had to follow you!” 29 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus said to them, “no one who has left home or wife or brothers or sisters or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God 30 will fail to receive many times as much in this age, and in the age to come eternal life.” GREGG We treated the “eye of the needle” thing almost embarrassingly thoroughly last episode, so refer back to my Mark commentary for detail on that. The ending simply promising a much greater reward for giving things up to follow Jesus is a mild tweak of the “first shall be last” thing we saw concluding this passage in Matthew and Mark, for what it's worth.   Next up, Jesus gives the third prediction of his death he's given in Luke:   LUKE 18   31 Jesus took the Twelve aside and told them, “We are going up to Jerusalem, and everything that is written by the prophets about the Son of Man will be fulfilled. 32 He will be delivered over to the Gentiles. They will mock him, insult him and spit on him; 33 they will flog him and kill him. On the third day he will rise again.”   34 The disciples did not understand any of this. Its meaning was hidden from them, and they did not know what he was talking about.   GREGG Jesus predicts his death three times in each of the synoptic Gospels, so that being the third and final prediction is a sign we're getting close.   Chapter 18 finishes with a miracle, so we're on to Chapter 19, which opens with the second account of Jesus calling a tax collector to follow him present in Luke. And unlike the call of Matthew slash Levi, this call of Zaccheus is *only* present in Luke.   LUKE 19 19 Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through. 2 A man was there by the name of Zacchaeus; he was a chief tax collector and was wealthy. 3 He wanted to see who Jesus was, but because he was short he could not see over the crowd. 4 So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore-fig tree to see him, since Jesus was coming that way.   5 When Jesus reached the spot, he looked up and said to him, “Zacchaeus, come down immediately. I must stay at your house today.” 6 So he came down at once and welcomed him gladly.   7 All the people saw this and began to mutter, “He has gone to be the guest of a sinner.”   8 But Zacchaeus stood up and said to the Lord, “Look, Lord! Here and now I give half of my possessions to the poor, and if I have cheated anybody out of anything, I will pay back four times the amount.”   9 Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, because this man, too, is a son of Abraham. 10 For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”   GREGG I mentioned a bit ago we were getting close to the end of things for today, and another sign that we're getting close is that the next thing we get to cover, after skipping another parable, is Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem, which is liturgically covered in the Palm Sunday observances that kick off Holy Week, aka the week leading up to Easter Sunday. Let's hear what Luke has to say, starting at verse 28:   LUKE 19 28 After Jesus had said this, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. 29 As he approached Bethphage and Bethany at the hill called the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples, saying to them, 30 “Go to the village ahead of you, and as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here. 31 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?' say, ‘The Lord needs it.'”   32 Those who were sent ahead went and found it just as he had told them. 33 As they were untying the colt, its owners asked them, “Why are you untying the colt?”   34 They replied, “The Lord needs it.”   35 They brought it to Jesus, threw their cloaks on the colt and put Jesus on it. 36 As he went along, people spread their cloaks on the road.   37 When he came near the place where the road goes down the Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of disciples began joyfully to praise God in loud voices for all the miracles they had seen:   38 “Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord!”   “Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”   39 Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples!”   40 “I tell you,” he replied, “if they keep quiet, the stones will cry out.”   41 As he approached Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it 42 and said, “If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace—but now it is hidden from your eyes. 43 The days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment against you and encircle you and hem you in on every side. 44 They will dash you to the ground, you and the children within your walls. They will not leave one stone on another, because you did not recognize the time of God's coming to you.”   45 When Jesus entered the temple courts, he began to drive out those who were selling. 46 “It is written,” he said to them, “‘My house will be a house of prayer'; but you have made it ‘a den of robbers.'”   47 Every day he was teaching at the temple. But the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the leaders among the people were trying to kill him. 48 Yet they could not find any way to do it, because all the people hung on his words.   GREGG From the classic handwaive of “the master has need of it” to the admittedly brief account of Jesus driving the moneychangers out of the Temple, there's a lot of good stuff in there, but nothing especially new, all things we basically saw in Matthew and Mark.   Similarly, the opening verses of Luke 20 are also close parallels of the other synoptic gospels. But hey, you know the drill, let's hear Luke tell it:   LUKE 20 One day as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple courts and proclaiming the good news, the chief priests and the teachers of the law, together with the elders, came up to him. 2 “Tell us by what authority you are doing these things,” they said. “Who gave you this authority?”   3 He replied, “I will also ask you a question. Tell me: 4 John's baptism—was it from heaven, or of human origin?”   5 They discussed it among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,' he will ask, ‘Why didn't you believe him?' 6 But if we say, ‘Of human origin,' all the people will stone us, because they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”   7 So they answered, “We don't know where it was from.”   8 Jesus said, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”   GREGG The next few verses are taken up by the Parable of the Talents, so we'll skip that and go on to more close synoptic parallel passages starting in Verse 20. If you're wondering, we're parallelling Matthew 22 and Mark 12 here:   LUKE 20 20 Keeping a close watch on him, they sent spies, who pretended to be sincere. They hoped to catch Jesus in something he said, so that they might hand him over to the power and authority of the governor. 21 So the spies questioned him: “Teacher, we know that you speak and teach what is right, and that you do not show partiality but teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. 22 Is it right for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?”   23 He saw through their duplicity and said to them, 24 “Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?”   “Caesar's,” they replied.   25 He said to them, “Then give back to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's.”   26 They were unable to trap him in what he had said there in public. And astonished by his answer, they became silent.   GREGG Yes, as you'll recall, giving God what is God's means giving God everything, but at the same time, like, pay your taxes.   The parallels continue with the next section   LUKE 20 Some of the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Jesus with a question. 28 “Teacher,” they said, “Moses wrote for us that if a man's brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, the man must marry the widow and raise up offspring for his brother. 29 Now there were seven brothers. The first one married a woman and died childless. 30 The second 31 and then the third married her, and in the same way the seven died, leaving no children. 32 Finally, the woman died too. 33 Now then, at the resurrection whose wife will she be, since the seven were married to her?”   34 Jesus replied, “The people of this age marry and are given in marriage. 35 But those who are considered worthy of taking part in the age to come and in the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage, 36 and they can no longer die; for they are like the angels. They are God's children, since they are children of the resurrection. 37 But in the account of the burning bush, even Moses showed that the dead rise, for he calls the Lord ‘the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.' 38 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to him all are alive.”   39 Some of the teachers of the law responded, “Well said, teacher!” 40 And no one dared to ask him any more questions. 41 Then Jesus said to them, “Why is it said that the Messiah is the son of David? 42 David himself declares in the Book of Psalms: “‘The Lord said to my Lord:     “Sit at my right hand 43 until I make your enemies     a footstool for your feet.”' 44 David calls him ‘Lord.' How then can he be his son?” GREGG   Yes, all closely paralleling Matthew 22 and Mark 12 still, both of which we've discussed. For what it's worth, John is going to be something quite different.   In any event, the last bit of Luke 20 is absent from Matthew, only parallelled in Mark 12:   LUKE 20 45 While all the people were listening, Jesus said to his disciples, 46 “Beware of the teachers of the law. They like to walk around in flowing robes and love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces and have the most important seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets. 47 They devour widows' houses and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will be punished most severely.”   GREGG Luke 21 opens with another section we that we didn't see in Matthew but covered in Mark, namely the Widow's Offering:   LUKE 21 As Jesus looked up, he saw the rich putting their gifts into the temple treasury. 2 He also saw a poor widow put in two very small copper coins. 3 “Truly I tell you,” he said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the others. 4 All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.”   GREGG I do love the message there, namely that God sees and accounts for effort when it comes to our actions, including our giving. Like I said, the Widow's Offering was in Mark too so I went into some more detail last episode.   As the chapter continues, the parallels with Matthew resume, now in Matthew Chapter 24, and Mark 14. Overall the theme is the end times, fairly appropriate given the transition to the Passion that will come in the next chapter    LUKE 21 Some of his disciples were remarking about how the temple was adorned with beautiful stones and with gifts dedicated to God. But Jesus said, 6 “As for what you see here, the time will come when not one stone will be left on another; every one of them will be thrown down.”   7 “Teacher,” they asked, “when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are about to take place?”   8 He replied: “Watch out that you are not deceived. For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am he,' and, ‘The time is near.' Do not follow them. 9 When you hear of wars and uprisings, do not be frightened. These things must happen first, but the end will not come right away.”

The three functions of the spirit are the conscience, the fellowship, and the intuitionColossians 1:21-22 This includes you who were once far away from God. You were his enemies, separated from him by your evil thoughts and actions. Yet now he has reconciled you to himself through the death of Christ in his physical body. As a result, he has brought you into his own presence, and you are holy and blameless as you stand before him without a single fault.Jeremiah 17:14Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved, for you are my praise.Jeremiah 33:6Behold, I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal them and reveal to them abundance of prosperity and security.Proverbs 20:27The human spirit is the lamp of the Lord that sheds light on one's inmost being.John 3:5-8Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

Eli's Worthless Sons 12Now the sons of Eli wereworthless men.They did not know theLord.13The custom of the priests with the people was that when any man offered sacrifice, the priest's servant would come, while the meat was boiling, with a three-pronged fork in his hand,14and he would thrust it into the pan or kettle or cauldron or pot. All that the fork brought up the priest would take for himself. This is what they did at Shiloh to all the Israelites who came there.15Moreover,before the fat was burned, the priest's servant would come and say to the man who was sacrificing, Give meat for the priest to roast, for he will not accept boiled meat from you but only raw.16And if the man said to him, Let them burn the fat first, and then take as much as you wish, he would say, No, you must give it now, and if not, I will take it by force.17Thus the sin of the young men was very greatin the sight of theLord,for the men treated the offering of theLordwith contempt. 18Samuel was ministering before theLord, a boyclothed with a linen ephod.19And his mother used to make for him a little robe and take it to him each yearwhen she went up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.20Then Eli would bless Elkanah and his wife, and say, May theLordgive you children by this womanfor the petition she asked of theLord. So then they would return to their home. 21Indeed theLordvisited Hannah, and she conceived and bore three sons and two daughters.And the boy Samuel grew in the presence of theLord. Eli Rebukes His Sons 22Now Eli was very old, and he kept hearing all that his sons were doing to all Israel, and how they lay with the women whowere serving at the entrance to the tent of meeting.23And he said to them, Why do you do such things? For I hear of your evil dealings from all these people.24No, my sons; it is no good report that I hear the people of theLordspreading abroad.25If someone sins against a man, God will mediate for him, but if someone sins against theLord, who can intercede for him? But they would not listen to the voice of their father,for it was the will of theLordto put them to death. 26Now the boy Samuelcontinued to grow both in stature and in favor with theLordand also with man. TheLordRejects Eli's Household 27And there camea man of God to Eli and said to him, Thus says theLord,Did I indeed reveal myself to the house of your father when they were in Egypt subject to the house of Pharaoh?28Did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to go up to my altar, to burn incense,to wear an ephod before me?I gave to the house of your father all my offerings by fire from the people of Israel.29Why then do youscorn[a]my sacrifices and my offerings that I commanded for my dwelling, and honor your sons above me by fattening yourselves on the choicest parts of every offering of my people Israel?30Therefore theLord, the God of Israel, declares:I promised that your house and the house of your father should go in and out before me forever,but now theLorddeclares: Far be it from me, for those who honor me I will honor, and those who despise me shall be lightly esteemed.31Behold,the days are coming when I will cut off your strength and the strength of your father's house, so that there will not be an old man in your house.32Thenin distress you will look with envious eye on all the prosperity that shall be bestowed on Israel,and there shall not be an old man in your house forever.33The only one of you whom I shall not cut off from my altar shall be spared to weep his[b]eyes out to grieve his heart, and all the descendants[c]of your house shall die by the sword of men.[d]34And this that shall come upon your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, shall be the sign to you: both of them shall dieon the same day.35And I will raise up for myself a faithful priest, who shall do according to what is in my heart and in my mind.And I will build him a sure house, and he shall go in and out beforemy anointed forever.36And everyone who is left in your house shall come to implore him for a piece of silver or a loaf of bread and shall say, Please put me in one of the priests' places, that I may eat a morsel of bread.

Yes, this is how he normally is. Vi leads everyone in some deep calming breaths afterwards because… wow. 15:20This caller wants to talk about the double standards Christians have around watching movies with violence in them versus movies with, erm, spicy scenes. Vi gives some insight into their own childhood experiences as a fundamentalist Christian. 31:03What starts off as a vegan call ends with an argument that the Flood of Noah was actually merciful? What? Vi and Eric walk through the implications of suffering, environmentalism and the factory farming industry, anti-natalism, and the pros and cons of the Thanos Snap in this very interesting but unexpected conversation. 46:46We're all upset by the Far Right trying to censor things, but what about the Left saying that platforming problematic individuals is a bad idea? Is that hypocrisy? The hosts clarify their own positions on platforming and censorship, and push back on the idea that educated people are less censorious. If you're interested in hearing a good take on the free speech and censorship debate, check out Tom Nicholas's video on Elon Musk's attempted acquisition of Twitter here: https://youtu.be/79pS5OXKTkU Also, lest this was not hit upon hard enough in this episode, please look up what Marilyn Manson has been credibly accused of in recent years: https://youtu.be/Ja-UFvajEHc 1:03:25If we don't actually have free will, can we really blame or praise anyone for anything they do? This caller explains why his belief in determinism calms him down in traffic, which is an intriguing idea to the hosts. Eric says his way of empathizing with reckless drivers is to assume they just need to poop really badly. Hey, whatever works to keep your head level! 1:13:05How do you successfully counter Muslim apologetics? This caller has a coworker who he's been engaging in theological discussions with, and is looking for some help. The hosts suggest he watch some ex-Muslim activists and debaters for a good, informed approach to this conversation.

Thank you for tuning in! Full transcript: 00:00:13Welcome back to another episode of the 101 podcast. I'm your host one. As always follow me on social media, Instagram. Tik-Tok YouTube at the 101 podcast. And today we have a Mandy with us. Mandy. How you doing today? 00:00:57I'm doing fantastic one. Thanks for having me. So we connected on Instagram and you reached out to me and you said that you wanted to speak about this Matrix. And I know you have a podcast and you also do some what is it that you do with the with oxygen cbd-infused oxygen. 00:01:20Holistic, lab and a Healing Arts Gallery. So what I do is 00:01:26In that I tried to bring the metaphysical, the concept of metaphysics until more physical practical tool way. And one of those is administering, aromatherapy CBD oxygen. And so, a lot of people would say, what does it have to do with metaphysics? And really, it's about. Well, first, the basic one, which is everyone's, you know, muzzled right now and we're we're not breathing correctly. So if this is ever a time to really use some oxygen, it is right now. But really my Approach is about Awakening, The Prana the life force and we do that simply just by breathing, and we don't realize how much were not really breathing until we have that to. I, I give my guests really pretty like cool neon tubes to put in their nose, which they keep for sanitize purposes. And you're feeling that oxygen for the first time running through your nose and your like, oh my gosh. Is this really what? It's like to feel like legit are going through my nose. 00:02:26Breathing all the time, you know, so it's this actually feeling that Prana and incorporating essential oils. And CBD is a corporate meeting. The aspect of the plant medicine and integrating going back into the organic human cuz I'm all about the organic human timeline. So perhaps that's them, you know, that's that's part of my mission on Earth. I consider myself a cosmic agent and I guess I was programs as as bringing unfolding that organic path and we do that by integrating the pure oils in the CBD, the plant medicine and then the prime of the oxygen before we get deeper into it. Can you share your social media with with whoever wants to find your work or connect with you? Absolutely think. If you'd like to follow the portal on Instagram, it's the portal underscore EP or you can go to my personal page, which is 00:03:26Cosmic. Native, I'm mostly on, on the Instagram to Facebook. I'm kind of like, I don't really care. We're going to show that off. So what got you into that? Type of it, cuz I'm in and it seems like everything that the honestly seems like the only thing that 00:03:47I've been talkin about as of lately has been it. You know what I mean? Like the everything that's going on in the world has just been about covid-19 and I took a break for seven eight months because of a family emergency. My dad had a heart attack, right? And it was at the. So I thought that 2020 was wild beginning of 2021 was like, none of this is going to be an even Wilder ride then then 2020. And so I took a break cuz I had to take care of the family business and what not. And then I finally got back into it, but it's, and I'll actually have somebody my DM's right now that we're talking about how 00:04:30How dark everything is right now as far as like, the energy and just the atmosphere and the, the anger that some people have, especially at this time. It's almost like a mass hysteria, this this hypnosis. And I've talked about simulacra where people take symbols and they give value to it for no apparent reason just because you have a symbol of of a cross doesn't mean it's God or just cuz you have a symbol of Christ, doesn't mean it is Christ. And for some people it is the literal meaning of 00:05:07God, whatever it is, right? I am usually symbols and I've been wanting to do mushrooms for a little bit now. And I, I saw Joe Rogan live on Saturday and he started talking about mushrooms and I told my fiance, I'm like, and I grew my own mushrooms for like 3 months. And a first time I did it was, it was like this weird experience because it was like this, this create I was that much closer to it. I took it for, you know, like a spiritual type of thing. I wanted to look Inward. And when I ate some mushrooms for the first time, it was all that work of taking care of them. Every day for three months will looking after them, make it show up there. They were growing correctly and I was like this, this weird. Like spiritual thing for me is I go home. I'm eating like what I've made and not only that but it's I'm in this other dimension now and 00:06:07Long story short, I was a horrible trip for my first, it was horrible. It was at the peak of Corona and it was, by the way. I had an ego to change my life on Tuesday to say that but it really did because it just rewire the way I think about things and just were so caught up in the insignificant bullshit of life. And yes, so it's, it's funny. You say that because I have this, this mix relationship with with the big Pharma cuz my dad also has that messed he's diabetic. And I've seen the corruption of these things that they, they need to keep you sick to keep you coming back. It's that's what people don't understand. That it's a business and there are alternatives, holistic medicine, Reiki, healing up, other things that were not open to why? Because we were indoctrinated from the very beginning to say, look, that's bad. That's not, that's not going to work, right? 00:07:08So I have this again. I have this animosity towards a big Pharma because my dad's MS treatment is $30,000 a month. And if you don't if you don't have, if you don't have insurance. 00:07:22You don't die from it. Guess what? There's no there's no there's no cure. You don't die from it. But you stole D. Just a grade in your body just eats itself and some people just stopped breathing just cuz their muscles and everything comes up and that's that's dark. 00:07:38Yeah, absolutely. And you know what you hit it. You hit the nail on the head when you said you had an ego death with your mushroom. 00:07:43Well, actually, it's with the entire planet is experiencing right now. Is there a ego death? And they're walking through the Dark Shadows, their collectively with this Collective Narrative of covid, and being sick in like the end of days. And then everyone's also having their own individual experience of what that looks like, you know, are they not being authentic to themselves as far as their work, are they not being authentic to themselves as far as human being, their alignment of who they are and what they want to be and we are experiencing, you know, I don't know if anyone's ever said this, you know, to you in the last year-and-a-half, but some of the very beginning would say that covid is actually part of the crown. So accessing that Crown chakra, you known that multi-dimensional level of really opening ourselves up to the most, you know, your potential Supernatural human being is that we can be 00:08:43Has the Earth is having her own time of Ascension time of regrouping time of evolution. And so when this is happening and we can measure this scientifically with the Schumann resonance. And so, when this is happening in the energies, are changing, guess what? We are also Earth bodies. So our energies are going to change. And I used to read, you know, Barbara Clow and in some other, you know, author is back when I was really young and they would say, prepare for this time because people are going to start to lose their minds because the energies are going to get really weird. And it's only because we're just changing our vibrations. No, I didn't know. It is really fascinating. I didn't think it was going to show up like this like a pandemic, right? But really it's like 00:09:36If there's so many levels to it and it is it, it is actually the most fascinating time to be awake because it's like in my perception. We're witnessing this sci-fi movie like playing out in front of us. It's super Syfy, right? So the thing is is that because the energies are changing everything in the atmosphere of Earth and in our Dimension is becoming more malleable. So what you believe perceive and embody in your energy and what you project, guess what? You're manifesting it, you're creating it. And at the same time, you are also either becoming more part of the illusion, or you're becoming kind of like a fringe dweller outside of the illusion saying this is not real. This is not, I don't want to be a part of this movie. Does that make sense? That's scary because 00:10:26I've I've delved into the the world of the gnostics and the demiurge in the false reality that that in the movie, The the 2001 Space Odyssey, how in Coptic timing simulation, pick up the gnostics use that and I've actually brought this up on the livestream. I did yesterday with my my buddy Tom on strange strange World podcast. When we we have a sideshow Regis talk about all types of stuff and I and I said 00:10:58When we look at the planetary in the celestial bodies according to Gnostic cosmology, it was, we live in a world created by the demiurge and the damage is the state in archetype. And I said, is it weird that we find beauty within that in something that the demiurge created? Because it's supposed to be evil. But if you look at it, it's, it's beautiful, right? So is it bad that we think that it's beautiful and in end? 00:11:28When you talk about that about either becoming part of the simulation or whatever, or right now, I feel that everybody that's awake and I don't like using that term walk or anything like that. But if you're awake, I feel like we are the ones that broke out of Plato's Cave and we're coming back inside and tell the others and saying, hey, there's another world out there. These Shadows are saying is there's more to it than that. And obviously we know how that story goes with the people within the cave were fighting against cuz they didn't want to break free. It's it's Stockholm syndrome. What's going on right now, what you said earlier? 00:12:10Corona in Spanish means Crown. So it would make sense with the with the Contour and then, and that's, that's what Kundalini is all about. Right. Aligning the chakras and open yourself up and being able to, is it a form? And correct me if I'm wrong cuz I'm not well-versed in this at all. Is it to where you can line up your chakras in your able to ascend like until like a light body or something? Or how does that work? Well, okay. So with the chakra system, everyone has a chakra system, right? And we work with the main seven, chakras, from the route, all the way up to the crown. And so when we have all the chakras and in the Kindle, any lit up, which that is the Kindle eating and you see that the the, like, the Serpent's coming together, anytime you see, Ken dilanian work, that's bringing your left and right brain together your masculine or feminine, your dualities together, and that's essentially what it is to get the balance of the chakras. All in this light alignment. 00:13:10So really what it is is your ascending regardless, whether you're working on this or you're not there just different levels and it doesn't mean that you're going to leave this body. And means we're going to have the experience in the physicality. Cosmic energy by accessing all the way up to the crown to access that connection to God Universe Cosmos, or however you want to see that's the energy. We want to Anchor Inn at the same time of being rooted in the healthy, balance rooted and that's the red root chakra and we're bringing the Earth. So they said the grounding and the cosmos together. So we're having this Fusion, this ultimate. What is the next verbal? Absolutely. Absolutely. What is this ultimate, you know, Human Experience now because listen, we're done, we we can whether you're in the The Matrix system in totally, like in the fear or whether you're like us who were The Fringe dwellers in. 00:14:10What's going on? This is nice. We all are agreeing that we don't want to participate in this Collective, you know, elaboration anymore. We we want to end suffering. We want to end, you know, the the notion of samsara where it's over and over and over again, and we're just perpetuating this like lower-density experience on Earth. We agree. We don't want to do that anymore. So therefore we're changing the game, the planet changing the game, where to get the game. The whole Cosmos is changing the game. So going back to your you, no idea of sometimes, we might find a Specs of the gym, yours, beautiful, that evil slipped backwards. Means what live 00:14:54Evil is live something in the version. So it's very interesting because the desist. 00:15:03The system that we live in is paradoxical. Okay. It's a, it's a gay man. And I don't mean it like Loosely, like, nobody can die and stuff like that, and it's not meaningful. I mean, there are certain elements of Design Within this Cosmic system that makes it paradoxical, so a lot of things and, and they know they're so, you know, the Illuminati, the families of nobility, the infiltrated Freemasons, they know this system. So, and it's part of esoterica. That's what are esoteric, symbols are. So in the system, in the area are inversions and that's one of them, evil is an inversion to live. So the gym yours is like going to reside in low-density negative energy. What is it due to negative energy separate sand in disintegrate. Positive energy comes together in a grows in its Collective. That's literally just the mechanics of energy, right? So if we look at something, 00:16:03We want to see as human beings. Will, that evil? Okay. What is it doing? Is it separating? Is it causing destruction? Okay. So that's the inversion of living. It's not causing gross. It's not allowing for further, unfoldment the expansion, which is life, right? So that's where we're now. We're like, okay, we experienced this design in polarities in the good to evil, the dark and the light, the black and white, the high in the low as above. So below, right? We've experienced that. Okay. So now and our next Evolution, now it's time to come into the fusion of these things and incorporate that Paradox, incorporate that. Okay. Listen, this stuff looks grim and dark, but guess what, we can't get lost in it. What is the, what is the good? That is the good, the higher potential, the expansion that is coming out of this. In one of the things that I can tell you is that people are waking up to pharmacy. 00:17:03Cool stuff in this craziness of illness versus healthy people and and saying, you know, what? Wait a second. Why is our society? Why is our world cultivated to make us sick? That doesn't make sense. We don't want to allow that anymore. That that's, that's ridiculous. Right? We have all these Technologies and you're going to tell me that your dad has paid $30,000 a month because of his illness that since Buster generic brand to the school system, you know, work system medical system. So they're breaking down and we're like, yes breakdown because people like you and I hopefully we step into our mission and many others to start to create new system. 00:17:53and, 00:17:55I posted today. I did a real from the live last night where I, I said society's, fuck. Because people some people walk on this Thin Line and they're so easily swayed. They see one thing and they're so easily swayed, right? They're easily manipulated from one little thing that they see on the meat. I say defund the media because we only see one side of the story and people are are convicted before innocent until proven guilty doesn't exist anymore. If they got you on the media, people are convicted even before they hit that courtroom, right? So then I forgot what you mentioned earlier, so, 00:18:36Oh, yes. Yes. 00:18:39I was looking into the Ossipee and Helena blavatsky and, and those type of doctors and you mentioned, the Freemasons, and the yin and yang, where it's the, it's the check for the black and the white. And you brought up an interesting point because you said, we have to find the, the goodness and everything that's going on. Even if it's, it's all evil. And I learned recently that wants some of the doctors, these individual, The Reptilian overlords, cuz that's what I like to think of them. The archons the, the negative energy, whatever they are. What if they are actual lizard, people, who knows, but that's what I refer to them as and it's always problem solution rent to repeat right and that's what the demiurge wants to keep us here for the Ouroboros, write the snake, the snake eating its own tail, and that's what I love about the gnostics that they didn't, which they were obliterated, pretty much by the 00:19:39I had a Catholic church because they taught the DVD. They took away, the broke or just going on right now with everything with the with the, with the way you live your life. It's all a brokered experience. Like, no, you have to go through us first in order to enjoy whatever it is that you want to enjoy. You have to go through the church first to to to achieve Divinity while they figured. I was like, no, we don't cuz like we are got the, we are the Delight being, you know, we were made in the image of God know so what what more is there to look for? Why do I have to pay you to be able to to what so, it's all a business and 00:20:17So, back to the, the Helena blavatsky thing, there's also because I feel that with Aleister Crowley and all these individuals date that the who knew about this. They take it and they preferred it, right. Just how the Knights Templar. They they they I'm pretty sure it was One Bad. Apple spoils the rest and I've heard that some of these individuals, they will 00:20:41They will promote and how do I say is do push that they want to be so evil that they achieve Divinity. Have you heard anything about that? They that they want to like I forgot how you worded it, but they want to 00:20:58Be so evil, that they're Divine, almost an old ancient concept that the dark ultimately service the light. 00:21:12Okay, so so let's break it down to the gym yours. If we take it to Sacred the notion of sacred geometry. Let's let's have that is a visual. And so you take sacred geometry. And you say where they would say, the first points, just the point is the existence of God or Source creation Creator. And from that point there, then was a line. 00:21:40And then that's how creation started to create so point in line and we can say this is feminine and masculine Energies. 00:21:50Feminine energy and it has nothing to do with like, you know, gender feminine energy, is the mechanics of energy being magnetic drawing to you, trying to you. So you won, you have feminine energy. When you're exercising that energy of drawing to you. That's your femininity. Okay, then the line would represent masculine energy and masculine energy pushes. The the is the action, the action of the energy going out. Okay, so magnetics and energetic and in reality. They work together there. What? They're, they're not one in the same that you different systems, but they are in collaboration in Creation with each other. That's why that's also one of our biggest divisive notion. How many times? Yeah, exactly. Do you hear the mainstream media and they're like, you screw the patriarchy and poor women and women are like how dare you I'm a victim and you're like 00:22:50Powers. That's an illusion. They've trapped you into believing an illusion that's not true. Women are incredibly powerful. Men are incredibly powerful and when the two come into collaboration their supersonic be okay. So in that sense, we have to look at the gym yours as that Breakaway creation. 00:23:13So, go backwards. It's still part of creation. It's just plain. Be inverted roll. Right? So Dua, Leti the system of Duality. So, one point said, I'm going to play the creation of the or I'm going to play the role of the lived apart and you're going to play the role of the evil part, which is the inverted mayor of what I am and they play the mirrors of each other. Does that make sense counter where I talk about? Saw tiny chinchillas Asians, it's all the same thing reiterated just in a different names. Quetzalcoatl, Jesus Christ, Buddha, Krishna. All these guys are all the same people and it's again all religions. If you really think I forgot who I was listening to. I think I might have been manly P hall was talking about this and I'm making a point to where everything is just reiterated over and over and over again. It's it's that Duality that you talking about evil. And then he also said that he was talking about something something sort. 00:24:13I got the perversion just because you're ethnically Chinese doesn't mean you're culturally Chinese but we we live in this Society to where it's like all your Chinese Cultural. You must be Chinese. Like no, I'm I'm American or you know what? I mean? Like these these these things that we're just, we're just like, we have these blinds on and that's all we see. And when you questioned the mainstream narrative or you bring up alternate ideas, how we're talking right now. You're looked at like at your fucking crazy, you know what I mean? 00:24:46Normal, so then, let's take it. Let's take it higher, this conversation higher. Let's move from the gym, yours, and let's go a little bit middle ground before we hit the normal 3D. So you have the mainstream media, but the mainstream media and social media, the internet. So I would I would you know, say they're one in the same write their propaganda piece has to write. They can be for your benefit where they can be totally MK Ultra your ass. If your life sucks them. However, who's really running the media, and the internet go? Deep deep deep. What is it? It's the whole entire inverted system of a, i 00:25:23AI is infiltrating all the systems, even the system of reptilians and the lizards, and the archons, and all that stuff, you know, and they're infiltrating even those creations and it's like, whoa, wait a second, you know, so we're not in a humongous like transmutation as I would say, I have some writings and some You Know spoken word about the stuff transportation of the cosmos. This is our transmutation of the cosmos and the thing is is that we've been here before and that's how we know how to navigate through this blueprint and then we know how to change the design with time and she with the new transmutations going to be. So it really is the AI. So when when we see things playing on TV or you know, the same narrative all this stuff, it's like yeah, of course, there's Talking Heads. I don't know if you subscribe to clones and double 00:26:23I happen to believe it's true. 00:26:34Spider-Man, watch the reality, right? It's so interesting. So it's the, it's the AI, literally, we know that it programmed us through our phones through what we write through, what we searched and then, guess what? The way. I understands things is to categorize everything and subcategorize everything over and over and over and over again. Okay, because guess what we can take the notion. Like I said, in ancient times, they were working off of fusion Collective Consciousness, right? And left brain paradoxical understanding, and philosophies. Okay. So now that we're like, in all these pieces, you know, you see, you know, this notion of like all these like 50,000 genders. I don't know, you know, and it's because it's part of that like categorisation of human being. That's not, I'm sorry, but that's not part of the natural organic unfolding system. That's an AI system to be able to to compartmentalize. 00:27:34Aldi's categorizes of things to be able to understand because that's the only. It doesn't have creative thought does not have creative. Thought. That's why when it does things like these false flags are like this real rotational of stuff that, you know, damage that we see it's kind of same thing. We already know how it's going to play. There's no creativity because it's who's behind it. It's yeah, it. That's a lot to unpack. And when you talk about the AI, and I've talked about this about the trans humanistic movement and I was a big, Elon Musk fan. But Elon Musk is pro transhumanism and he wants to become one with that neural link, right? He wants to. He wants to connect this quick quick, quick and 00:28:26What I tell people is pay attention to the symbols. The symbols are the language to the soul. It's not realistic programming that they're doing a bit but they have in the background and just a few weeks ago. I definitely was the CIA or the government. They they admitted to having a guy that's able to predict events days in advance is out 2 days, 3 days 4 months 5 months a year because right now we're building all these modern-day towers of Babel and fucking with things that we shouldn't be fucking with. And it's I feel it's to cause more separation within ourselves because 00:29:14I feel that back then. 00:29:17Everything was much more. How do you say that is? There is a magical and we've lost the sense of touch with an in Oneness with nature. And you, you mentioned at the beginning of the podcast at Mother Nature is having her own Ascension. And reality itself is not much more manageable. And that, honestly, I never really thought about it like, that, that that, as we move on has and I don't know, if you're familiar, has the age of Aquarius, already happened, or is it are we transitioning right now? With two that? I mean, we already in in more than the middle of reaching that and here's the thing. People are think that the age of Aquarius is one day going to appear and we're going to be like butterflies and rainbows and throwing them everywhere. But really that's not the concept. Those even those concepts are somewhat programs, you know, AI dysfunctional concept. The concept is this is 00:30:17Picking complete responsibility and access to you yourself as the human Earth body on this planet. And by doing that it's again. It's going. It's the basics. Like, how can I be responsible for myself for my actions for me, taking care of myself and it's a big inverted mirror in this whole covid scenario. Because what if people do they wanted to blame you for not being nasty. Want to blame you for not being vaccinated. They want to blame you for going outside. How dare you you're going to get me sick and it's like, where is the personal responsibility? The responsibilities going back to again, ancient times like you were saying, we are the gods. We are the one unfolding the destiny. We are the one creating the experience. So in a sense, we can't really blame so much the Illuminati or the infiltrated Masons or the lizard people cuz guess what we are them. We have allowed this to take place on our planet. 00:31:17I take responsibility, it's Alan. I think it was either David. I cry Alan Watts and said the 00:31:28The intention goes where the energy goes, or something like that. The intention flows or the energy to go, something like that. Tom brought it up yesterday and 00:31:38History doesn't repeat itself at often Rhymes and what you're talkin about. All this seems so familiar to me of blaming one group of people. Blaming society's problems on them. Are remind me of something that's already happened in history. But today's generation. They don't know how to read so they don't look back. They don't care about. No, I've had people tell me, what is it matter. I have to go tell me you'll just let them do whatever they want to do. They're going to win. Indiana go. Well, we don't understand. Is that as a collective, if you have enough people is like a religion or cult whatever it is. As a people, you have enough people thinking the same thing as you or them or whatever. It, maybe it comes true. It becomes true. And it's what you're talkin about the forming of reality and end in Holland, in The Matrix, such a great movie and I was talking to Tom and I said, 00:32:35I watch recently Fight Club and like, you know, these weird movies that just have these crazy Potts was that you're not expecting at all. And I recently saw one on Netflix. Thanks for the good old lizard guy Netflix. I forgot the name of it. So it's with Jason Momoa. It's I think it's called little girl. I don't know if you seen it and no matter how many times I watch Fight Club, write these weird crazy movies or the Matrix, especially Fight Club cuz at the end I'm always mine blown. I didn't know. It was him the whole time. It's like wow. And sometimes when people they're walking this Thin Line, how how everything's been as of lately, right? Walking on eggshells. I feel like people glitch out, right? Like they like, it is like an information overload on whatever it is. 00:33:30whatever their reality is cuz some people are just 00:33:34some people are NPC. Some people are just put here just to fill in and just and the observer effect as a real thing. That's why. 00:33:42I've gotten to the point where I don't even care anymore. I'm just, I'm just a living. I'm just doing my own thing. I be careful with. I'm careful with what I say and what I do in the type of energy that I put out there because there's, there's certain ways to go about it. And I've had ever since it happened. I've had family members wish death upon me because I I don't align with certain views and I tell him, I go. Why would you say that? Why would you sit in a send, you ate that because you've already spoke it into existence? You've already thought about it. So, and that's like me telling you, how you need to let your tires or bother. You don't change me in a fucking crash into a pole because you're going to lose track just like, hey, get your tires fixed and it's not good to have a ball type thing and it's like you're putting that out there and I had this this date come up. I don't know if the Mayans copied a lot of of what the Aztecs did the Aztec. 00:34:42The Real G's, they're the ones that that built that they even had. 00:34:47Late like that. Like the kabbalistic Tree of Life, where it sits this map to the cosmos, right? They supposedly build maps of the of the universe these people and 00:35:01Everybody knows that in 2012. The world was supposed to end, right? Twenty twelve dollars, a big thing of December 21st, 2012 that the world's going to end of his movies about it. It was all this shit about it when I am seeing September 21st 2022. Have you heard about that? 00:35:17No, I haven't heard about that date. However, I would say that if you're seeing these dates, look into it into the mirror image of things, so we had December 21st. 00:35:312012. So, if we flip that to the 2012, the mirror version of that would be 2021. 00:35:40Right. I want to be working, a lot of people think 2021 is the age where you have, we become we awakened because we're seeing the corruption and I and I have talked about this where 00:35:55The system is fucked. We saw what happened in March of 2020, Merida toilet paper. Then the supply chain is. It's so thin, so yeah, but what a great opportunity for everyone to get some bad days. That's much more healthier for your ass, into the fuck out. Because it's like, I remember when my son was first born and I about the hospital, giving us these bottles and envies disposable like nipples for the bottles. And I remember, when we got sent home, I had bought some. I bought some extra ones. We started running out. He was on formula. 00:36:36And he start running out of the little disposable nipples and all that stuff. 00:36:42And so we start calling the hospital. We go ahead, we're running out of these disposable nipples and bottles and stuff like that. What are we supposed to do? Can you guys sell the sum or whatever? And they're like, no, we can't buy. What the fuck are we supposed to know how? We going to feed our son? And the lady was like, bro, just put her in a regular bottle and I looked on my Fountain Lake. 00:37:01Why we think about that, right? Cuz you're so focused, right? You have these why there's no other solution which is what's happening right now. And that's just like using analogies to just relate to normal people. Cuz sometimes you'll be talking to somebody and know though, they freaked out, right? I mean today or is like, well, I'm going to have a normal conversation that me 5 minutes later. You know, what time is time is an illusion and it's like you talk to people on that way when they freak out and we can see this indoctrination of of of symbols and I were talking about you bring up a good point to where 00:37:37We are the lizards. 00:37:42Like a Carl Jung type of thing. We're taking the shadow of the self or what? What do you cuz I like to think that there are these these arch-nemesis of of society and these these hooded figures in the dark Alleyways that are at that actually want to do good because they feed off that negative energy in the lower vibrational and I've talked about the Saturn time Cube simulation hypothesis where everything is being controlled by Saturn Satan. Kronos, right. And we can relate that to, to even bafflement, right? We can, we can talk about that where where it's related to all these archetypes moloch. And it's the same, the same record regurgitation over and over again, throughout all of history, just with a different label for the different time of, of, of whatever it is, but I feel that they feed off and harvest, our energy. The Matrix. What were they use? 00:38:42Tina says batteries, right? And then everybody was put into, I forgot who it was. That said. 00:38:50When they offer him the steak and he's like, oh, you know, that's not real, right? He's at all. So I can taste real take. Why would rather have her? Who said? Anyways, I got rather have the fake cuz it tastes good and then then to know it's fake or freezing, but I digress. 00:39:07What were you going to say about to hear? I'd like to believe that. That's all true. Because if you can conceive it, and you can believe it, you can achieve it and it's happening cuz then where does it come from? Okay, that's on some Sub sub level. It's happening. Just like, for example, people saw, you know, a lot of death in covid. And so when people say, oh, you think it's a hoax and I said, that's too one-dimensional. That's to kindergarten. I don't think it's, I think it's so much more than you're giving a credit. So I believe that people are living in their own realities where there, whether it's part of their soul plan, their karmic retribution, whatever agreements, they made their seen it there. Super in the reality. It's real for them. Then there are some of us that we walk into a store without a mask and nobody even bats. Not it's like you're not even there. 00:40:07Okay, work work work, didn't get sick or anything like that. Okay. My point is everyone's living the reality in which they're projecting in their mind and in the energy so that reality on some level is happening. Now, think of the concept of multidimensionality. 00:40:25If you believe do you, if you believe in parallel realities parallel universes, it's like you dropped a stone in a pond and then you see that geometry of all the circles, right? There's one Circle II Circle, don't look at it like that. So there's all these like circles and I'm not, there you go. And then it's like, right? So the morning that it was stration, that imagery into multidimensionality and then, you know, still going above and below and and sides, 360, all that stuff is 00:41:00We could be led to believe there's a philosophy that yes, we are in this body. But this is not the only place that were anchored in. We can also be anchored in other potential places of our multidimensionality and that's about enough incident. So in this life where, you know, what people maybe some people would consider good or of the light or for Humanity, but who's to say that in another life in another multi-dimension, Airy aspects of ourselves. We are not part of that over Overlord system, which is why we understand it. So well, which is why we're able to to work through the illusion, out of it. Yin and yang balancing. Do you know there's just we can take this notion like so many ways. 00:41:49Yeah, I was reading a book or audiobook. It's called the astral plane, its inhabitants and the scenery. And in that book, they talked about how 00:42:02If you are a scientist in this lifetime, you know and in a past lifetime you might have started that Journey or you were another scientist right in this samsara or this or borrows and dissemination of them. Are you talking about the the the middle being the source in the one? Right? That's what the my play it. It's crazy that we that we still refer back to guys that were talking about shit that were at that, that had their own. Can you imagine the Library of Alexandria? It was just, if you really think about it. It was just a bunch of podcast booze and they were just all having their own podcast and their own conversations and a lot of the greatest Minds that came out of there. And then play, it'll be one of my favorites that bad, that you the philosophers who fucking talked about Atlantis. Write this guy was on a whole nother level. 00:42:58He talks about that about House Thoughts, Plato's theory of forms where the perfect form exists. In this other realm, in this other dimension, this higher Dimension. And even today, I was listening and and it was mainly P hall. Said, if you believe that 00:43:20Once you're dead, that's it, and that's where life stops your you know, material list or something like that. And if you're if you believe that we go on and in our Consciousness goes on after death, and you're an idealist and 90% of people, 90% of people think that 00:43:40There's something at the happens after Afterlife, right? After after you die. A lot of all these religions, they all talk about that shit and they did the ancient Egyptians. They they literally prepared just for the afterlife. That's all they did everything that they did was just towards living in the in their afterlife cuz they knew what was going to happen. And you brought up sacred geometry earlier where the Egyptians put sacred geometry and everything. Because they wanted, they they, they saw it as holy. They saw it as as it came from the source, right? Perfect. And then they wanted to put a little bit of the creator of the programmer. I'd like to call him and everything and all and everything that they built, they they would put signal Jammers cuz they wanted to incorporate that into their to elaborate on a on a point that I made earlier. We're, we're we're so focused on these false symbols, right? Because at the end of the day, that's all we've based. That's all we work off of and it's called. 00:44:40It's called memetic, occultism. What they're doing nowadays and what that is, is using propaganda to speak, to people, to their soul, to speak, to them on a deeper level and it, and it speaks of the person's soul and coincidentally, Play-Doh, and Play-Doh, the Republic talked about how they wanted to ban certain Arts, certain frequencies turn sound because they believed that there was talk to the soul, the person that would have waved at them. And if you really think about it, what's happening right now, they're limiting us from doing what we love the Arts from from going, to concerts listening to music. It's almost like they're trying to initiate the same thing to where they're limiting us because all these Arts, they talk to us, right? We feel good when we listen to music, you know, when we watch a movie, the actors, they, they speak to us. And it's like this weird thing where they're limiting us right now with that. So we don't, I don't know. 00:45:40Further the development of the Ascension or whatever it is. And like I said, I've got to the point where I for 00:45:48I don't even try to understand it because it's it's how you're saying. It goes deeper than just overseeing on the surface. It's not just a wall. It's just don't trust the science. The fucking Sciences even know where the fuck it stands and you want me to trust the science and I can show you and I can bring up things of, in the past. That the government, the people who want your best interest, right? The ones that are there. So concerned with your best interest in hand. I can show you things were those. Same people, they fucked society, and they did things against their own world, the same Nazi mentality of a Praying on your citizens and experimenting on them. 00:46:29Operation Paperclip. That same mentality came over here. They were pulling out lsdm people to water, the Tuskegee experiment, all these false flag of things that they do to justify psychological warfare 20 years in Afghanistan for what? 00:46:45Yeah, exactly. So so yeah, so going back to you like hurts and and sound and stuff. That's something that we do here is one of the medicines, the sound healing in binary beats. So to segue into what you're saying is that one? I would I wouldn't encourage everyone that since we we what you're saying is true and we know that you were being experimented on. We know that there is a transhumanism agenda going on. We know that humans were made to be sick and we're nowhere for many years. Reaching the supernatural human potentiality. That we are made to be. We know that. So, in this paradoxical system, we buy being angry and buy keep, you know, 00:47:37Talking about the fucked-up things that they're doing to us. We're going to perpetuate this energy and that's how they feed on us. So, I mean, that's okay. You don't, you don't have to think it but you know, we again that's what we create Separation by saying, we're the good guys or the bad guys. You're the lizards were the humans and it's like, you know, there is a notion of again. If ever were going to have that. Clear for real chance. Do you know mutation of the cosmos? We have to take responsibility for what maybe even if we don't understand it. And that's why we got to start learning the esoterica. We got to start learning about Quantum, healing quantum physics, Quantum reality. We have to learn about sacred geometry. We have to understand, you know, the metaphysics of multidimensionality, all these things are apart of us. That's human. But nobody wants to teach us that in school. They don't even teach us. 00:48:37Human again in the practicing of this inversion, to flip this whole system over is to incorporate what, you know, and she remember what the inversion is. So, yes, let me tell you, when I are used to live in Florida for many years and there, I studied a lot of my, you know, a vehicle and all that stuff. And one of the things that I learned, when I learned about, you know, child sacrifice and the Very disgusting things that they do with children and how rabid pedophilia is in our world. I literally did not want to get out of bed for like a week, cuz I was like, there is no hope. This is disgusting. This is 00:49:28What the fuck? You know, I mean, it's just like jaw dropping. What do you say? What do you do? Okay, so then when we know these things to be true and we know what's going on and why they use in the why they do them, then it's up to us. If we're working for Humanity if we're working, you know, for the greater good, the good of the all we have to find moves to counter. So how do we do that? You're doing it right. Now, you're having the show, your opening conversation for people to chime in in to listen and help and have extension expensive thinking and thought I have the portal which is The Healing Arts, lab and holistic Gallery. Other people are doing amazing things, you know, so it's about having that let's have the conversation to bring it to the table. Let's bring the light in the dark to the table. Like, if we're turning on the light and receiving all the Cockroaches spread everywhere cuz we need to know. We're okay, then we got understand it. Then we got a counter and be like, we're not sucked inside. He's not sucks. Cuz guess what? We're Society. We are and many other people and weird. 00:50:28I'm the friend that I'm asking for. I'm, it's me, it's me the whole time, you know, live the experience of living the dark. Then you'll have more of that. If you choose that, you don't want to have that anymore. Then you can also choose in the other way against personal responsibility. That's the ultimate power. That's what makes you got. No Creations, you know, and I think we've lost touch with that as well. We're always blaming others. What's that called gaslighting, right? It was hiding rejecting and that's what I 00:51:11I haven't ever since this started. I haven't my form of meditation, and my form of reset. I do a little bit of yoga, and I was doing consistently at least once or twice a month. I was floating Ryan sensory, deprivation, and I was helping me a lot right to be able to reset and I feel like ever since this started if I go cuz cuz the whole thing of being there is just you and in just your, your inner demons, right? I feel like with everything I've built up a bike. If I go right now, I'm just going to have like a hard time because it's scary. You don't, you know, like being able to accept responsibility for your choices and and your decision and it's so easy just to blame it on somebody else or blame society, or blame whoever it is, and 00:52:05Hey, you, you what part of Florida are you in? 00:52:09I was in Sarasota and then I lived on the far East Coast up in Titusville in Orlando right now. 00:52:23Yeah, I mean and you know what to it's like you have this great opportunity, have this great opportunity in this malleable creation to just totally like do do, do you want to do it? Do it, big, do it. Small to a creative do it? You know, however you want it and it is based on your belief system. Did you ever see the Dark Crystal? 00:52:51Do the animated like the puppet movie? The original one? Cuz there's one on Netflix to which is also really like that one. But I remember seeing the original one, but I don't run out of work right now. 00:53:09You at least remember the concept of the skeksis and then the mystics. Okay? At the end of The Dark Crystal, I invite you to go back and watch the ending at least a band when they've defeated the skeksis and they put one of the gal selling put the, you know, the crystal Into The Dark Crystal so it can explode and all the stuff and defeat them. We see that when they die their souls or a combination of Mystics and skeksis within the skeksis and the mystics. Does that make sense? So then that tells that's like, what were they?
