Introduction Jacob has had quite a life thus far. There have been a multitude of twists and turns, deceptions and deals, and they have been leading up to this point, this last (?) conflict. The eventual confrontation with Esau has been a long time coming. It has been twenty years since he's seen him last, and at that time, Esau was just waiting to kill Jacob. We happen to know how this story is going to shape out, so I must put on my imagination to try to feel what Jacob had to be thinking about here. How many pleasant moments were interrupted by the sudden remembrance that Esau is still out there? How did it feel to successfully tell off Laban only to remember that there was someone else way more upset out there? Now lets imagine just the last 48 hours. Jacob found out that Esau is on his way, with 400 men! He's been bustling about getting camps ready, sending advance servants with gifts, reordering his family to protect his favorites, and then capping it all off with an all-night wrestling match with God! By the time we get to our passage, it can be tough to imagine how Jacob is even seeing straight. Maybe you've been here. Hopefully you've not had conflict where you fear for your life, but perhaps you've encountered such conflict, you can't imagine it ever going away. Maybe you are even the reason that the conflict is there. No matter which position you find yourself in, I think this passage holds out hope for you today. As we will see today, and I'm leaning heavily on my old seminary prof, Alan Ross for this main point, Reconciliation is a gift from God.

The discussion emphasizes the evolving understanding of consciousness, reality, and the universe by integrating scientific theories like quantum mechanics with ancient spiritual insights. Guest Alan Ross shares his personal NDE from 1970 and reflects on how it shaped his beliefs about the nature of reality, suggesting that physical existence may be an illusion. The conversation ultimately raises profound questions about the true essence of life, consciousness, and the possibility of multiple dimensions.

In this very unique episode, we interview cult-expert Rick Alan Ross to shed light on the definition of a cult and the techniques they use to recruit and control their members. Some historical and recent examples of cults include Adolph Hitler, Branch Davidians, Scientology, Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh (Osho), and Lev Tahor. Ross explains common cult techniques people should look out for and who is generally susceptible. He also answers the question of whether a cult needs to be an organized group that holds meetings or if an individual can fall into the same trap by following politicians, conspiracy theorists, social media influencers, or even people as "unthreatening" as health coaches. Ross explains the difference between religion and cult, and how the Orthodox Jewish community can protect themselves from cult leaders/figures within their own religion, even when certain leaders still cast a big shadow after their death. He clarifies whether Hassidic sects like Chabad or Breslov fall under the category of a cult. Listeners will learn how someone can know if they're in a cult and how they can escape, considering that their safety may be compromised if they leave or expose the cult. Finally, Ross offers insights into how an ex-cult member can "deprogram" and reintegrate into normal society. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/judaismdemystified/support

You've seen them in movies and on TV, but cults are more prevalent than you think—and they're armed with strategies that can brainwash and persuade even the most unlikely of candidates. But how do individuals get involved with cults in the first place, and what steps can be taken to “deprogram” and heal those who have been drawn into these damaging groups? These questions and more are addressed in Cults Inside Out, written by a leading cult expert Rick Alan Ross. Over the course of three decades, Ross has participated in around five hundred cult interventions, provided expert court testimony, and performed cult-related work all around the world. With the help of current and former cult members, Ross demonstrates many of the tactics the groups use for control and manipulation—and, more importantly, some of the most effective methods he and other experts have used to reverse that programming. As a result, readers will find themselves armed with a greater understanding of the nature of destructive cults and an improved ability to assess and deal with similar situations—either in their own lives or the lives of friends and family members. Rick Alan Ross is one of the leading experts on cults in the world today. He has consulted with the FBI, the BATF, and various other law enforcement agencies, as well as the governments of Israel and China, on the topic of cults. He has been qualified and accepted as an expert court witness in eleven different states, including the US federal court. He has also worked as a professional analyst for CBS News, CBC of Canada, and Nippon and Asahi in Japan --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/oneamerican/support

Rick Alan Ross is the founder and the Executive Director of The Cult Education Institute (or CEI). He is a globally recognized expert on the inner workings of destructive cults, controversial groups as well as subversive movements. Rick is also the author of the book 'Cults Inside Out: How People Get In and Can Get Out'. He began his research for the book in 1982, as he began delving into the rising threat that controversial authoritarian groups and movements posed. Ross then later started a website with his archives in 1996, and the CEI now keeps this online archive of his material he collected on cults and controversial groups. As such he has become a qualified and accepted expert witness, who has also testified in court proceedings all across the United States. This has also extended to the US Federal Court on numerous occasions. He has also frequently assisted both local and national US law enforcement, as well other governmental agencies in all their cult related cases.
