Dharma on Demand | Ep4. The Four Noble Truths (3rd Truth) On this episode, we continue our discussion on the Four Noble Truths: The Cessation of Suffering. The third truth helps us remember and recognize that everything external is impermanent and therefore the happiness it brings us is also impermanent.
June 1: Saint Justin Martyr c. 100–c. 165 Memorial; Liturgical Color: Red Patron Saint of philosophers The cut and thrust of philosophical debate led him to Truth On one of his first missionary journeys, Saint Paul found himself in Syria. He was at a crossroads and needed to decide where he would travel to preach the Gospel. Do I head east and bring the Gospel to the gentiles of Mesopotamia, Persia, India, and China? Or do I travel west, to the Greeks, Romans, Franks, and the people on the rim of the Roman Sea (the Mediterranean)? The Acts of the Apostles relates the mystical event that happened next: “During the night Paul had a vision: there stood a man of Macedonia pleading with him and saying, ‘Come over to Macedonia and help us.' When he had seen the vision, we immediately tried to cross over to Macedonia, being convinced that God had called us to proclaim the good news to them” (Ac 16: 9–10). Macedonia is in Greece. So Saint Paul's sails opened and he tacked west. The rest is history. In the person of Saint Paul, the Church herself turned toward Greece and her philosophical tradition. It was the plan of God that His Church would decisively encounter philosophical truth, not myth and custom, as its partner in dialogue. This intellectual engagement began the long process of melding philosophical truth with theological revelation, which transformed early, Jewish-based Christianity into something new—the powerful synthesis of theology, philosophy, spirituality, and structure known as Catholicism. Today's saint was a philosopher in the Greek tradition, born around 100 A.D. in Samaria to Greek parents. Saint Justin wrapped himself in the white, toga-style cloak of a Greek philosopher even after his conversion. He is the most well-known apologist of the second century, the only true Christian thinker known between the time of Saint John the Evangelist and Origen in the first half of the third century. Justin mercilessly criticized the intellectual dead end of the ancient paganism in which he was raised, seeing it as not merely neutral but as an obstacle to discovering the truth. Justin loved the idea that Christ the Logos was the same in substance but different in person from the Father. Theological truth expressed in the concepts of Greek philosophy was very satisfying to him, because it was very true. Justin also provided some of the very first words on the Holy Eucharist outside of the New Testament itself: “And this food is called among us the Eucharist...we (have) been taught that the food which is blessed by the prayer of His word, and from which our blood and flesh by transmutation are nourished, is the flesh and blood of that Jesus who was made flesh.” What a clear and remarkable testament to Christianity's early belief in the Eucharist! Justin moved to Rome to teach philosophy and spent decades there writing and interacting with the higher echelons of Roman society. But even a thoughtful intellectual was not immune from persecution for being a Christian. Sometime between 162 and 168 A.D., Justin and six companions were called to answer for their beliefs before the Prefect of Rome. The record of the trial has been preserved and shows the Prefect demanding that Justin sacrifice to the gods of Rome. Justin and his friends refuse and are threatened with torture and death. They respond: “Do as you wish; for we are Christians, and we do not sacrifice to idols.” What bravado! They sternly refused to be idolaters. They were duly led away, scourged, and beheaded. Justin chose, as the Church chose, the God of the philosophers over the false gods of paganism. This was a choice for truth over illusion. As Tertullian would later write: “Christ has said that he is truth, not custom" (De Virgin. Vel. 1, 1). The Christian God is both Father and the Prime Mover; the God of Jesus Christ and the Uncaused Causer; the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and thought thinking itself. He is Father and He is Almighty. He is everywhere, because He is nowhere. He is paternal and close at hand but forever mysterious and inaccessible. He gives a name, “I am Who am,” which is a riddle. We take this complex understanding of God for granted today. But the labor of early Christians like Saint Justin Martyr dug the deep intellectual foundations into which were later driven the piers of sound doctrine. It takes very smart people to make simple points. Saint Justin, you surrendered your life rather than worship an idol. Your refusal to abjure your faith gives an example to all Christian intellectuals and teachers that the deepest truths are not found only on a page but must be lived, and sacrificed for, even unto death.

And as much as we don't want to compare, we do…Our journey is as much about the daughters as it is the mothers.” Annie Marhefka“We don't just honor the people around us by talking about them, but we honor them by reflecting who they were to us, to the world.” Brittany Smith“It's processing who they were to you and how they molded you into who you are.

Lies & Paranoia/Fact & Conspiracy: 9/11 and the Mysteries of Truth On this week's episode of WatchThis W/RickRamos, Mr. Chavez and I sit down to continue discussing the wave of documentaries that flooded social media after the September 11th Attacks. On this episode we look at documentaries that examine the attacks from multiple societal angles and discuss their virtues and faults. We profile Daniel Avery's Loose Change (2005), Anthony J. Hilder's The Greatest Lie Ever Sold (possibly 2004), and Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11 (2004). Take a listen and hear the two of us debate the merits and problems with each of these films as well as the far-reaching (and still controversial) events of September 11, 2001. Thanks for your continued support. Questions, Comments, Complaints, & Suggestions can be directed to gondoramos@yahoo.com.

*Trigger Warning My name is Joshua T Berglan and this is Gratitude:UnFiltered AM…. Are you blind to the power of Truth? On this discussion, we discuss HIV, mental health, sex, STD’s, consequences of disobedience, the unseen power of Truth and continue our Devotional series by Dr. Charles Stanley about the freedom Truth Brings…. In other words, we go there…… “Truth That Sets Us Free” “Truth and freedom are constant companions. Where you find one, you will always find the other. Freedom in any area of life comes from discovering the truth about it. And discovering truth in a particular area always results in freedom of some kind. It’s when a child accepts the truth that there’s nothing to be afraid of that she’s finally free from a fear of the dark. It’s only when a little boy accepts the truth that his father can and will catch him that he finds the freedom to leave the security of the diving board and jump into the pool. Likewise, it’s only as we accept the truth of all that Christ did for us at Calvary that we begin to enjoy the freedom He provided. “The truth will set you free.” In six simple words, Jesus outlines the process by which any man, woman, or child can gain freedom in this life. Freedom is not gained through having our way or doing as we please. On the contrary, prisons are full of men and women who simply did as they pleased. These people certainly didn’t gain freedom; they forfeited their freedom. And so it is with us every time we carelessly strike out on our own to do our own thing. What results isn’t freedom—it’s bondage. If I were to ask you whether or not you’re free, you may be tempted to answer yes without giving it much thought. But let me ask you this: Are you constantly battling with fear, lust, jealousy, hatred, bitterness, conceit, deceitfulness, a lack of faith, or discouragement? Are there habits in your life over which you seem to have little or no control? Are there certain environments and people you avoid because of an insecurity you cannot overcome? If you answered yes to one or more of these questions, then you are not free. You don’t have to be imprisoned to find yourself in handcuffs or behind bars. Sin has a way of entrapping each of us, keeping us in bondage that the Lord never intended for us. It is through Christ’s death on the cross where He defeated sin and death once and for all that our true freedom can be found. And when we accept Christ as our Savior, the chains that had us bound are broken, and God’s freedom truly sets us free (Gal. 5:1).” Dr. Charles Stanley Gratitude:UnFiltered AM is an extension of the host, Joshua T Berglan’s quiet time and what he is studying in preparing for his Saturday Night talk show. Gratitude:UnFiltered AM is meant to inspire, intrigue and ignite your passion for the day ahead to aid you in reaching your destiny.

Andrea continues to shares her story and gets very personal about lies that plagued her during the early days of her life and ministry. The lies of the enemy were debilitating and she often normalized them and accepted the lies as truth. God never leaves us in our lies! He is faithful to show us the truth. Thankfully Andrea engaged in spiritual battle and replaced the the lies with truth! Three Lies Andrea Believed in the Past 1. "I was a burden to the people around me." 2. "I have to pay a kindness back by doing something nice or equally nicer for the people around me." 3. "I am always living on the outside." God intersected Andrea's life with truth. Instead of the lies, she began to believe: 1. "God created me for a purpose! My life is not an accident." 2. "I can accept the kindness of God and the kindness of others as I enjoy the spacious place of grace. I can be real with God and others as I embrace and celebrate community in authentic ways." 3. "I am a member of the family of God. Jesus bought my life with His blood and I am connected to others based on the blood of Jesus Christ!" How about you? What lies do you believe? How can you replace the lies with truth? This sanctifying exercise will change the way you think and the way you live! To learn more about how to take your thoughts captive for Jesus listen to Andrea's two-part conversation with Donna Seal on Truth On the Go episodes called Think on These Things!
