ch bin mehr als happy, endlich einen Podcast mit Steffen Wrede aufnehmen zu dürfen

LES 170Er schuilt geen wreedheid in God en evenmin in mij.Niemand valt aan zonder de bedoeling te kwetsen. Hierop zijn geen uitzonderingen. Wanneer je denkt dat je aanvalt uit zelfverdediging, wil je zeggen dat wreed zijn bescherming betekent: dankzij wreedheid ben jij veilig. Je wilt zeggen dat je gelooft dat het kwetsen van een ander jou vrijheid bezorgt. En je wilt zeggen dat aanvallen betekent dat je de toestand waarin je verkeert inruilt voor iets beters, iets zekerders, iets wat meer veiligheid biedt tegen een gevaarlijke inval en angst.Hoe door en door waanzinnig is het idee dat de bescherming tegen angst de aanval is! Want hier wordt angst verwekt en met bloed gevoed, om hem te laten groeien, zwellen en woeden. En dus wordt angst beschermd, niet ontvlucht. Vandaag leren we een les die jou meer vertraging en nodeloze ellende kan besparen dan jij je maar enigszins kunt voorstellen. Het is deze:Jij maakt zelf datgene waartegen jij je verdedigt, en door je eigen verdediging ertegen is het werkelijk en onontkoombaar. Leg je wapens neer, en dan pas zie je dat het niet echt is.Het lijkt een vijand vanbuiten te zijn die jij aanvalt. Toch bouwt jouw verdediging een vijand vanbinnen op: een vreemde gedachte, op voet van oorlog met jou, die jou van je vrede berooft en jouw denkgeest in twee kampen splitst die totaal onverzoenlijk lijken. Want liefde heeft nu een ‘vijand', een tegendeel; en angst, de vreemdeling, heeft nu jouw verdediging nodig tegen de bedreiging van wat jij werkelijk bent.Als je zorgvuldig het middel bekijkt waarmee jouw denkbeeldige zelfverdediging voortschrijdt op haar ingebeelde weg, zul je de uitgangspunten zien waarop het idee berust. Ten eerste is het onmiskenbaar dat ideeën hun bron moeten verlaten, want jij bent het die de aanval maakt en hem eerst moet hebben bedacht. Maar je doet een aanval buiten jezelf en scheidt jouw denkgeest van hem die moet worden aangevallen, in het volmaakte vertrouwen dat de scheiding die jij gemaakt hebt, werkelijk is.Vervolgens worden de eigenschappen van de liefde aan haar ‘vijand' toebedeeld. Want angst wordt jouw veiligheid en de beschermer van jouw vrede, waartoe jij je wendt voor troost, voor ontsnapping aan twijfels over jouw kracht, en voor hoop op rust in droomloze stilte. En terwijl liefde beroofd wordt van wat haar en haar alleen toebehoort, wordt ze begiftigd met de eigenschappen van de angst. Want liefde zou jou vragen alle verdedigingen als louter dwaasheid af te leggen. En jouw wapens zouden zeker tot stof vergaan. Want dat is wat ze zijn.Met liefde als vijand wordt wreedheid onherroepelijk een god. En goden eisen dat zij die hen aanbidden, hun bevelen gehoorzamen en het niet wagen die te betwijfelen. Wrede straf wordt meedogenloos uitgedeeld aan hen die vragen of de eisen redelijk of zelfs maar zinnig zijn. Hun vijanden zijn het die onredelijk en krankzinnig zijn, terwijl zij altijd barmhartig en rechtvaardig zijn.Vandaag kijken we gelijkmoedig naar deze wrede god. En we merken op dat hoewel zijn lippen met bloed zijn besmeurd en vuur hem aan alle kanten schijnt uit te slaan, hij slechts van steen is gemaakt. Hij kan niets doen. We hoeven zijn kracht niet te trotseren. Hij heeft er geen. En zij die in hem hun veiligheid zien, hebben geen beschermer, geen kracht om bij gevaar een beroep op te doen, en geen machtige strijder die voor hen vecht.Dit moment kan vreselijk zijn. Maar het kan ook het ogenblik zijn van jouw bevrijding uit een ellendige slavernij. Jij maakt een keuze, terwijl je voor deze afgod staat en hem precies ziet zoals hij is. Wil je aan liefde teruggeven wat jij aan haar hebt proberen te ontwringen om het neer te leggen voor dit levenloze stuk steen? Of wil je een andere afgod maken om deze te vervangen? Want de god van de wreedheid neemt vele vormen aan. Een andere kan worden gevonden.Nu behoren jouw ogen aan Christus toe, en kijkt Hij er doorheen. Nu behoort jouw stem aan God toe, en is van de Zijne de weerklank. En nu blijft jouw hart voor eeuwig in vrede. Je hebt Hem verkozen in plaats van afgoden, en jouw eigenschappen, jou door je Schepper verleend, zijn ten langen leste weer van jou. De Roep van Godswege is gehoord en beantwoord. Nu heeft angst ruim baan gemaakt voor liefde, nu God Zelf de plaats van wreedheid inneemt.Vader, wij zijn zoals U. Wreedheid huist er niet in ons, want die is er niet in U. Uw vrede is de onze. En we zegenen de wereld met wat wij van U alleen ontvingen. We kiezen opnieuw en maken onze keus voor al onze broeders, wetend dat zij één met ons zijn. We brengen hun Uw verlossing, zoals wij die nu ontvingen. En wij danken voor hen, want zij maken ons compleet. In hen zien wij Uw heerlijkheid en in hen vinden wij onze vrede. Heilig zijn wij omdat Uw Heiligheid ons heeft bevrijd. En wij zeggen dank. Amen.

Rechercheur Kit McKittrick en psycholoog Sam Reeves moeten samenwerken om een van de dodelijkste seriemoordenaars te vinden waarmee San Diego ooit te maken heeft gehad. Uitgegeven door De Fontein Romans & Spanning Spreker: Irma Hartog

Een van de grootste hits van Taylor Swift is Cruel Summer. Nu was de afgelopen zomer allesbehalve cruel voor haar. Haar ster rees tot grote hoogten. Ze is de verwezenlijking van de All American Girl. Al haar concerten waren uitverkocht, en zelfs de bioscoopversie daarvan was een hit. Ik vind het bijzonder dat mensen naar de bioscoop gaan om een concert te zien. Bij elkaar heeft ze daarmee al ruim $1 mrd verdiend. Ze heeft een enorme schare fans, de Swifties, en aangezien ze erg anti-Trump is, sluit ik niet uit dat haar opmerkingen nog invloed gaan krijgen op de Amerikaanse presidentsverkiezingen in november. 18% van de kiezers zegt de kandidaat te steunen die Taylor Swift ook steunt. Als kiezer zou ik ook naar de verkiezingsprogramma's en de geloofwaardigheid van de kandidaten kijken. Maar wat mevrouw Swift zegt geeft blijkbaar meer doorslag. Ongetwijfeld zullen aan de andere kant de Trump-fans niet meer naar haar concerten gaan. Maar, terug naar de economie. Dit enorme succes geeft aan hoeveel de gemiddelde Amerikaanse consument snakt naar entertainment, na corona. De dienstensector loopt prima. De restaurants zijn vol. De inkoopmanagersindices voor de dienstensector laten een veel zonniger beeld zien dan die in de productiesector. Een van de redenen voor dit verschil is dat de consumenten wel even genoeg spullen hebben gekocht. Ze gaan dus van dingen kopen naar plezier. Daarom zie je nu ook de autoverkopen terugvallen. Dat was ook terug te zien in de inflatiecijfers van afgelopen tijd. Sommige producten worden zelfs goedkoper, zoals tweedehands auto's. Hertz verkoopt zijn voorraad Tesla's bijvoorbeeld met grote korting. Een Tesla van 2 jaar oud kun je nu voor $18.000 kopen. Niet voor niets moet Hertz een kwart miljard afschrijven op zijn autovloot. De goedereninflatie staat dus onder druk. Maar de diensteninflatie is er nog volop. Even terug naar Taylor Swift. Ik kwam een oude advertentie tegen uit 2007. Toen kostte een kaartje nog $20. Oké, toen was ze ook nog niet zo bekend. Binnenkort treedt ze in Nederland op. De kaartjes kosten nu €220. Ik sla even over. Als meer concertbezoekers dat doen, daalt de vraag vanzelf en normaliseren de prijzen weer. Of zoals het gezegde onder economen luidt: het beste recept tegen hoge inflatie is hoge inflatie, want uiteindelijk zorgt dat voor vraaguitval. Je hoeft niet naar dat concert. Hoewel veel Swifties daar ongetwijfeld anders over denken. Al met al zal deze All American Girl in 2024 weer een enorme invloed op de Amerikaanse economie en maatschappij hebben. En dat alleen omdat ze een paar leuke liedjes zingt. Misschien gaat het toch nog een wrede zomer voor Trump worden.

Imagine this: possessing the power to not only understand your customers' deepest desires but also plant ideas in their minds, making them believe it was their idea from the very start.It may sound like something straight out of a dream, but it may not be as far-fetched as it seems. See, the genius of Christopher Nolan's Inception conceals marketing insights if you look close enough. It's the marketing movie you never knew was about marketing.While we can't offer you a PASIV device to enter your customers' dreams, we can provide you with the tools to craft marketing strategies that work like inception - subtly influencing, inspiring, and engaging your audience.So in this episode, we're deciphering the intricate layers of marketing with the help of Emburse's Chief Experience Officer, Johann Wrede. Together, we discuss how to utilize emotions to ‘plant ideas' in your customers' heads, avoid fixating on initial customer expectations throughout the customer journey, and leave room for your customers to co-create their narrative to boost engagement. So grab your totem for this episode of Remarkable.About our guest, Johann WredeJohann Wrede is the Chief Experience Officer at Emburse. He is responsible for leading a cross-functional marketing and customer success organization, with the goal of delivering a world-class customer experience from first awareness through subscription renewal.  Over the course of the last 25 years, Johann has written, implemented, sold and marketed a variety of customer database, CRM and customer experience (CX) products. An evangelist for customer experience, he has delivered keynotes and press interviews in 18 different countries, and written numerous articles on the topic.About EmburseEmburse is the global leader in spend optimization. Their expense, travel management, purchasing and accounts payable, and payments solutions are trusted by more than 12 million business professionals, including CFOs, finance teams, and travelers. More than 18,000 organizations in 120 countries, including FORTUNE 100 corporations, high-growth startups, public sector agencies, and nonprofits, count on their intelligent automation, sophisticated analytics, and unmatched spend control to streamline processes, increase spend visibility, enhance compliance, and deliver positive financial outcomes.About InceptionInception is a sci-fi action, mind-bending movie about a corporate spy who enters people's dreams to steal secrets from their subconscious. Leonardo DiCaprio plays the main character, Dominic, or Dom, Cobb, who is basically gifted with this ability that's made him extremely successful, but he's lost everything because of it. Namely, his marriage and children. His wife is played by Marion Cotillard. And so he's kind of haunted by her in his subconscious and she ends up sort of thwarting his every move. So anyway, he's given a chance to redeem himself by planting an idea in someone's mind, and having to go layers deep into their subconscious, which is of course, a nearly impossible task.The movie was released in 2010, and directed by Christopher Nolan (Oppenheimer, Dunkirk, latest Batman series with Christian Bale AND Memento). Nolan also produced it along with Emma Thomas - his wife and producing partner - for Warner Bros. It also stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Arthur, Elliot Page as Ariadne, and Tom Hardy as Eames.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Inception:Utilize emotions to ‘plant ideas'.  Emotions are your superpower to accessing the deepest corners of your customers' minds. People don't just buy; they invest for emotional reasons—this is an intrinsic part to our human nature. Johann says, “our whole mission is to plant ideas into customers' heads and convince them that it was their idea from the first. And the first time I saw [Inception], that is, it just jumped out at me and I thought, wow, that really sums up the marketing profession in a nutshell.”Don't fixate on initial customer expectations. Customers evolve, and so should your strategy. What matters most in the end is if they are happy. Just as Inception leaves us with an ambiguous ending, Cobb's happiness is undeniable. Whether it's a dream or reality, his happiness is the ultimate goal, mirroring how you should approach your customer journey. Johann emphasizes, “it doesn't actually matter if the value that they thought they were going to get is the value that they got. What's more important is that the value that they want right now is the value that they're getting right now. Are they happy with the result?”Leave room for your customers to co-create their narrative. This fuels customer engagement and is exactly what Christopher Nolan did when creating Inception. We witness this concept in two distinct ways: co-creation within the dream state, as the dream world is designed in a way that allows the subject to fill in details, and ambiguity in the ending, with Inception's enigmatic conclusion inviting audience speculation. Johann says, “All too often, we build these elaborate cities that we put our buyer into. And we orchestrate this narrative that is so complete and so full. And we try to be so precise in our language that we don't leave room for them to bring their own perception and perspective to it.”Quotes“One of my first sales mentors said to me, people buy for emotional reasons and then back it up with facts. That became really clear to me that what we needed to do as marketers was peel away those layers of the onion and get past the business person and down to the human, and speak to that person.” - Johann Wrede“If you can create content that authentically seeks to inform and to add value, then you start to move into the trusted advisor quadrant, which is where you really want to be. And the other piece of this puzzle is that we have to look at the content we create through the lens of the customer journey.”  - Johann WredeTime Stamps[01:00] Introducing Chief Experience Officer at Emburse, Johann Wrede[1:34] Why are we talking about Inception?[3:34] Tell me more about Inception [13:48] What are some marketing lessons we can learn from Inception?[22:16] Marketing insights from Inception's mind-bending ending[32:02] How to identify needs and craft messages that resonate[45:53] How does Johann think about content marketing?[54:49] Johann's view on the ROI of content[57:49] Johann's favorite upcoming marketing campaigns at EmburseLinksWatch InceptionConnect with Johann on LinkedInLearn more about EmburseAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

Palpatine first met Anakin in revenge of the Sith. He was the chosen one for the Jedi and now, for palpatine. Palps coerced anakin patiently into the dark side since he first met him. Strategically planting seeds into his mind until the time came to do what must be done and execute order 66. Anakin was Palpatine's protoge, he was everything to him. He was to be more powerful than Sidious, and to rule the galaxy with his powerful apprentice. However, when Anakin fell to Obi-Wan, or rather, to his own arrogance in thinking he could defeat his former master atop a less favourable position, against the high ground, Sidious was devastated. In the film, Revenge of the Sith, we see Vader being put together in Palpatine's medical facility on Coruscant. The best medical droids at her service, applying an out of date suit so Vader would live with the pain of his failure, mentally and physically, forever. But did you ever wonder, what was Sidous thinking while Vader was being put together? His prize new apprentice, the one he had tried to turn to the dark side, had now just become a fraction of the man he almost became. How did Sidious take it? How did he feel about it? What did he think of Vader now? The following excerpt comes not from Matthew Stover's Revenge of the Sith novelization of the film, but rather Patricia c Wrede's junior novelization of revenge of the sith, and it's quite interesting what Palpatine's thoughts were.

LES 170Er schuilt geen wreedheid in God en evenmin in mij.Niemand valt aan zonder de bedoeling te kwetsen. Hierop zijn geen uitzonderingen. Wanneer je denkt dat je aanvalt uit zelfverdediging, wil je zeggen dat wreed zijn bescherming betekent: dankzij wreedheid ben jij veilig. Je wilt zeggen dat je gelooft dat het kwetsen van een ander jou vrijheid bezorgt. En je wilt zeggen dat aanvallen betekent dat je de toestand waarin je verkeert inruilt voor iets beters, iets zekerders, iets wat meer veiligheid biedt tegen een gevaarlijke inval en angst.Hoe door en door waanzinnig is het idee dat de bescherming tegen angst de aanval is! Want hier wordt angst verwekt en met bloed gevoed, om hem te laten groeien, zwellen en woeden. En dus wordt angst beschermd, niet ontvlucht. Vandaag leren we een les die jou meer vertraging en nodeloze ellende kan besparen dan jij je maar enigszins kunt voorstellen. Het is deze:Jij maakt zelf datgene waartegen jij je verdedigt, en door je eigen verdediging ertegen is het werkelijk en onontkoombaar. Leg je wapens neer, en dan pas zie je dat het niet echt is.Het lijkt een vijand vanbuiten te zijn die jij aanvalt. Toch bouwt jouw verdediging een vijand vanbinnen op: een vreemde gedachte, op voet van oorlog met jou, die jou van je vrede berooft en jouw denkgeest in twee kampen splitst die totaal onverzoenlijk lijken. Want liefde heeft nu een ‘vijand', een tegendeel; en angst, de vreemdeling, heeft nu jouw verdediging nodig tegen de bedreiging van wat jij werkelijk bent.Als je zorgvuldig het middel bekijkt waarmee jouw denkbeeldige zelfverdediging voortschrijdt op haar ingebeelde weg, zul je de uitgangspunten zien waarop het idee berust. Ten eerste is het onmiskenbaar dat ideeën hun bron moeten verlaten, want jij bent het die de aanval maakt en hem eerst moet hebben bedacht. Maar je doet een aanval buiten jezelf en scheidt jouw denkgeest van hem die moet worden aangevallen, in het volmaakte vertrouwen dat de scheiding die jij gemaakt hebt, werkelijk is.Vervolgens worden de eigenschappen van de liefde aan haar ‘vijand' toebedeeld. Want angst wordt jouw veiligheid en de beschermer van jouw vrede, waartoe jij je wendt voor troost, voor ontsnapping aan twijfels over jouw kracht, en voor hoop op rust in droomloze stilte. En terwijl liefde beroofd wordt van wat haar en haar alleen toebehoort, wordt ze begiftigd met de eigenschappen van de angst. Want liefde zou jou vragen alle verdedigingen als louter dwaasheid af te leggen. En jouw wapens zouden zeker tot stof vergaan. Want dat is wat ze zijn.Met liefde als vijand wordt wreedheid onherroepelijk een god. En goden eisen dat zij die hen aanbidden, hun bevelen gehoorzamen en het niet wagen die te betwijfelen. Wrede straf wordt meedogenloos uitgedeeld aan hen die vragen of de eisen redelijk of zelfs maar zinnig zijn. Hun vijanden zijn het die onredelijk en krankzinnig zijn, terwijl zij altijd barmhartig en rechtvaardig zijn.Vandaag kijken we gelijkmoedig naar deze wrede god. En we merken op dat hoewel zijn lippen met bloed zijn besmeurd en vuur hem aan alle kanten schijnt uit te slaan, hij slechts van steen is gemaakt. Hij kan niets doen. We hoeven zijn kracht niet te trotseren. Hij heeft er geen. En zij die in hem hun veiligheid zien, hebben geen beschermer, geen kracht om bij gevaar een beroep op te doen, en geen machtige strijder die voor hen vecht.Dit moment kan vreselijk zijn. Maar het kan ook het ogenblik zijn van jouw bevrijding uit een ellendige slavernij. Jij maakt een keuze, terwijl je voor deze afgod staat en hem precies ziet zoals hij is. Wil je aan liefde teruggeven wat jij aan haar hebt proberen te ontwringen om het neer te leggen voor dit levenloze stuk steen? Of wil je een andere afgod maken om deze te vervangen? Want de god van de wreedheid neemt vele vormen aan. Een andere kan worden gevonden.Maar denk niet dat angst de uitweg is uit angst. Laten we ons herinneren wat het tekstboek beklemtoond heeft over de blokkades voor vrede. De laatste, de moeilijkste om van te kunnen geloven dat die niets is, een schijnbare blokkade met het uiterlijk van een massief blok, ondoordringbaar, angstwekkend en onoverwinnelijk, is de angst voor God Zelf. Hier ligt het fundamentele uitgangspunt dat de angstgedachte tot god verheft. Want angst wordt bemind door hen die angst aanbidden, en liefde schijnt nu met wreedheid te zijn bekleed.Waar komt het volslagen waanzinnige geloof in wrekende goden vandaan? Liefde heeft haar eigenschappen niet met die van de angst verward. Toch moeten de aanbidders van de angst hun eigen verwarring waarnemen in de ‘vijand' van de angst, en de wreedheid ervan nu als deel van de liefde zien. En wat wordt dan angstwekkender dan het Hart van de Liefde Zelf? Het bloed schijnt op Zijn Lippen te staan, het vuur slaat Hem uit. En Hij is vreselijk zonder weerga, onvoorstelbaar wreed, en slaat allen neer die Hem als hun God erkennen.De keuze die jij vandaag maakt, staat vast. Want jij kijkt voor het laatst naar dit stuk gebeeldhouwde steen dat jij hebt gemaakt, en noemt het niet langer god. Je bent eerder op deze plaats geweest, maar jij hebt ervoor gekozen dat deze wrede god nog bij jou bleef in weer een andere vorm. En zo is de angst voor God bij je teruggekomen. Deze keer laat je die daar achter. En jij keert naar een nieuwe wereld terug, ontlast van zijn gewicht, gezien niet door zijn nietsziende ogen, maar door de visie die jij dankzij jouw keuze hervonden hebt.Nu behoren jouw ogen aan Christus toe, en kijkt Hij er doorheen. Nu behoort jouw stem aan God toe, en is van de Zijne de weerklank. En nu blijft jouw hart voor eeuwig in vrede. Je hebt Hem verkozen in plaats van afgoden, en jouw eigenschappen, jou door je Schepper verleend, zijn ten langen leste weer van jou. De Roep van Godswege is gehoord en beantwoord. Nu heeft angst ruim baan gemaakt voor liefde, nu God Zelf de plaats van wreedheid inneemt.Vader, wij zijn zoals U. Wreedheid huist er niet in ons, want die is er niet in U. Uw vrede is de onze. En we zegenen de wereld met wat wij van U alleen ontvingen. We kiezen opnieuw en maken onze keus voor al onze broeders, wetend dat zij één met ons zijn. We brengen hun Uw verlossing, zoals wij die nu ontvingen. En wij danken voor hen, want zij maken ons compleet. In hen zien wij Uw heerlijkheid en in hen vinden wij onze vrede. Heilig zijn wij omdat Uw Heiligheid ons heeft bevrijd. En wij zeggen dank. Amen.

What exactly does Orthodox Christianity understand is happening at the crucifixion regarding the incarnation and death of the Son of God? How can a timeless being die, etc.? Why is the Last Supper/Eucharist associated with Passover and not Yom Kippur? I don't understand how there could be an original group of Christians without an individual who prompted all of the enthusiasm about him being the Messiah in the first place. In other words, how did this concept (i.e. that Jesus - who had not liberated the Jews and had been killed by the Romans - was the Messiah) become so proliferated that there were numerous (and very different) ideas about who he was without an historical figure to inspire it all? How did you apply Wrede's “Messianic Secret” theory to Jesus Mythicism? Also, what might lead to the conclusion that Jesus was a revolutionary?

De Spanjaarden gingen woest tekeer tegen burgers op 16 november 1572, de dag die de geschiedenis in zou gaan als de ‘Wrede moord op Zutphen'. Niks zou gespaard zijn gebleven. Jarenlang werd dit verhaal over het Bloedbad van Zutphen als de waarheid gezien, en ook nu is het een bekende gebeurtenis uit de Tachtigjarige Oorlog.  Maar heeft het bloedbad wel plaatsgevonden? En zo niet: wat zegt dat over onze herinneringscultuur? Historicus Johan Visser onderzocht het voor zijn scriptie en schreef er een boek over getiteld: Zutphen 1572 – De geschiedenis van een bloedbad. Hij is te gast.

Scripture Reading: John 10:1-42 1 “I tell you the solemn truth, the one who does not enter the sheepfold by the door, but climbs in some other way, is a thief and a robber. 2 The one who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 The doorkeeper opens the door for him, and the sheep hear his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. 4 When he has brought all his own sheep out, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they recognize his voice. 5 They will never follow a stranger, but will run away from him because they do not recognize the stranger's voice.” 6 Jesus told them this parable, but they did not understand what he was saying to them.7 So Jesus said again, “I tell you the solemn truth, I am the door for the sheep. 8 All who came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. 9 I am the door. If anyone enters through me, he will be saved, and will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come so that they may have life, and may have it abundantly.11 “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. 12 The hired hand, who is not a shepherd and does not own sheep, sees the wolf coming and abandons the sheep and runs away. So the wolf attacks the sheep and scatters them. 13 Because he is a hired hand and is not concerned about the sheep, he runs away.14 “I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me— 15 just as the Father knows me and I know the Father—and I lay down my life for the sheep. 16 I have other sheep that do not come from this sheepfold. I must bring them too, and they will listen to my voice, so that there will be one flock and one shepherd. 17 This is why the Father loves me—because I lay down my life, so that I may take it back again. 18 No one takes it away from me, but I lay it down of my own free will. I have the authority to lay it down, and I have the authority to take it back again. This commandment I received from my Father.”19 Another sharp division took place among the Jewish people because of these words. 20 Many of them were saying, “He is possessed by a demon and has lost his mind! Why do you listen to him?” 21 Others said, “These are not the words of someone possessed by a demon. A demon cannot cause the blind to see, can it?”22 Then came the feast of the Dedication in Jerusalem. 23 It was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple area in Solomon's Portico. 24 The Jewish leaders surrounded him and asked, “How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly.” 25 Jesus replied, “I told you and you do not believe. The deeds I do in my Father's name testify about me. 26 But you refuse to believe because you are not my sheep. 27 My sheep listen to my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. 28 I give them eternal life, and they will never perish; no one will snatch them from my hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one can snatch them from my Father's hand. 30 The Father and I are one.”31 The Jewish leaders picked up rocks again to stone him to death. 32 Jesus said to them, “I have shown you many good deeds from the Father. For which one of them are you going to stone me?” 33 The Jewish leaders replied, “We are not going to stone you for a good deed but for blasphemy because you, a man, are claiming to be God.”34 Jesus answered, “Is it not written in your law, ‘I said, you are gods'? 35 If those people to whom the word of God came were called ‘gods' (and the scripture cannot be broken), 36 do you say about the one whom the Father set apart and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,' because I said, ‘I am the Son of God'? 37 If I do not perform the deeds of my Father, do not believe me. 38 But if I do them, even if you do not believe me, believe the deeds, so that you may come to know and understand that I am in the Father and the Father is in me.” 39 Then they attempted again to seize him, but he escaped their clutches.40 Jesus went back across the Jordan River again to the place where John had been baptizing at an earlier time, and he stayed there. 41 Many came to him and began to say, “John performed no miraculous sign, but everything John said about this man was true!” 42 And many believed in Jesus there.Main ThemesShepherds in AntiquitySheepIn the ancient world, both Jew and Gentile, sheep were prized. They provided wool; meat; milk that could be turned into cheese; and, leather that could be turned into “canteens” to carry liquids. Shepherds cared for sheep and oftentimes goats as well.Sheep (and goats) would learn to follow the voice and pipe of the shepherd. (Forgive me, I tried learning more about what a shepherd's pipe may have looked like or sounded like, but I did not gain a good level of confidence on the material I found. Suffice it to say, it was some kind of flute, perhaps made of reeds.) Obedient animals could be led by voice and pipe without requiring the use of a staff. We have modern examples of shepherds guiding over 200 sheep by walking slowly and giving them a call about every forty seconds. In our daily lives, the closest analogue to this would be our relationships with our dogs.Shepherds' ReputationsShepherds were important in Old Testament times. Moses was a shepherd (Exodus 3:1). David was a shepherd (1 Samuel 16:11). Yet, despite the greatest patriarchs of the Jewish people being shepherds, the profession became despised by the elite during Jesus' time. As Craig Keener points out in his John commentary, contemporary texts portrayed shepherds as rogues, thieves, and murderers. Shepherds were considered the only class of people lower than peasants. And these texts include not only gentile sources. Surprisingly, Jewish rabbis shared these opinions considering shepherds as dishonorable—like tax collectors.In Chapter 10, Jesus is obviously speaking with a positive outlook on shepherds, very much in keeping with the Old Testament precedent. What we might not consider as we read the text is that Jesus is speaking to the religious elite, who probably do not share Jesus' positive description of pastoral life. This does not change the theological meaning of the text, but it informs us about the tone of the conversation. By this point in Chapter 10, the argument between Jesus and the religious elite has reached a boiling point. Jesus' use of shepherds in his parable probably did not bring the temperature down.The SheepfoldMany households would have owned sheep in Jesus' time. If the sheep were being kept “at home,” then they would be kept in the modern equivalent of the yard. (Perhaps our closest equivalent word would be the curtilage.) The yard was surrounded by a tall wall made of a permanent material, such as stone. There would be a door to enter the yard. Teenagers who were part of the household may be hired to care for the sheep. This may be the image we encounter in the first few verses of Chapter 10.Large herds, though, were not kept in anyone's backyard. They would be out in pastures and moved around from pasture to pasture as the seasons changed. The herds would have been taken higher into the mountains during summer and low into the valleys in winter. Neither the shepherd nor the sheep were safe during all this travel. Lions, wolves, and criminals posed dangers. We will discuss these dangers in a minute. For now, I want to focus on the kind of enclosure in which sheep could be kept when out in the pastures. A shepherd could use a cave, build a temporary shelter with thornbushes for sides, or perhaps use a temporary summer shelter built of stone walls topped with briars. This last kind of shelter would have no door but simply an opening, so the shepherd would sleep across the opening, himself acting as the door.Different shepherds might share the same sheepfold at night. We may think that separating the animals would be difficult in the morning, but that was not the case. The sheep would distinguish the voice of their shepherd and follow him.Thieves and RobbersThieves and robbers were common at the time. Technically there was a difference between the two. Generally, thieves broke into homes and robbers assaulted travelers.Robbers may not only steal sheep but kill the shepherd. Bands of robbers could grow powerful enough to require military intervention. Shepherds had to be ready for combat, which was part of the reason they carried a staff. They also had vicious dogs with them, but it is unclear how often dogs were used by Jewish shepherds. (Dog's were ceremonially unclean.)Of course, the words thieves and robbers were also used as insults. For example, a politician who exploited his people might be referred to as a robber. Pagan nations oppressing Israel could be referred to likewise.Shepherds in the Old TestamentThe last bit of background we need to better understand Chapter 10 is Ezekiel 34. Certainly Ezekiel 34 is not the only chapter in the Old Testament that calls Israel sheep, but it is the primary allusion in John 10. I quote verses 1-24 below,1 The Lord's message came to me: 2 “Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel; prophesy, and say to them—to the shepherds: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Woe to the shepherds of Israel who have been feeding themselves! Should not shepherds feed the flock? 3 You eat the fat, you clothe yourselves with the wool, you slaughter the choice animals, but you do not feed the sheep! 4 You have not strengthened the weak, healed the sick, bandaged the injured, brought back the strays, or sought the lost, but with force and harshness you have ruled over them. 5 They were scattered because they had no shepherd, and they became food for every wild beast. 6 My sheep wandered over all the mountains and on every high hill. My sheep were scattered over the entire face of the earth with no one looking or searching for them.7 “‘Therefore, you shepherds, listen to the Lord's message: 8 As surely as I live, declares the Sovereign Lord, my sheep have become prey and have become food for all the wild beasts. There was no shepherd, and my shepherds did not search for my flock, but fed themselves and did not feed my sheep. 9 Therefore, you shepherds, listen to the Lord's message. 10 This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Look, I am against the shepherds, and I will demand my sheep from their hand. I will no longer let them be shepherds; the shepherds will not feed themselves anymore. I will rescue my sheep from their mouths, so that they will no longer be food for them.11 “‘For this is what the Sovereign Lord says: Look, I myself will search for my sheep and seek them out. 12 As a shepherd seeks out his flock when he is among his scattered sheep, so I will seek out my flock. I will rescue them from all the places where they have been scattered on a cloudy, dark day. 13 I will bring them out from among the peoples and gather them from foreign countries; I will bring them to their own land. I will feed them on the mountains of Israel, by the streams and all the inhabited places of the land. 14 In a good pasture I will feed them; the mountain heights of Israel will be their pasture. There they will lie down in a lush pasture, and they will feed on rich grass on the mountains of Israel. 15 I myself will feed my sheep and I myself will make them lie down, declares the Sovereign Lord. 16 I will seek the lost and bring back the strays; I will bandage the injured and strengthen the sick, but the fat and the strong I will destroy. I will feed them—with judgment!17 “‘As for you, my sheep, this is what the Sovereign Lord says: Look, I am about to judge between one sheep and another, between rams and goats. 18 Is it not enough for you to feed on the good pasture that you must trample the rest of your pastures with your feet? When you drink clean water, must you muddy the rest of the water by trampling it with your feet? 19 As for my sheep, they must eat what you trampled with your feet and drink what you have muddied with your feet!20 “‘Therefore, this is what the Sovereign Lord says to them: Look, I myself will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep. 21 Because you push with your side and your shoulder, and thrust your horns at all the weak sheep until you scatter them abroad, 22 I will save my sheep; they will no longer be prey. I will judge between one sheep and another.23 “‘I will set one shepherd over them, and he will feed them—namely, my servant David. He will feed them and will be their shepherd. 24 I, the Lord, will be their God, and my servant David will be prince among them; I, the Lord, have spoken!The Parable of the Shepherd and the SheepForgive me, that was a lot of background information before we got to today's text. But, hopefully, all that information will help us understand the text with more depth.Parables in John's GospelOne final side note. You may have heard that the Gospel of John contains no parables. Yet, in John 10:6 you see the word “parable.” Why would people say that, then? The Greek word in John 10 is paroimian. When the Gospel of Matthew, for example, introduces a parable, it uses the word parabolēn. Some people argue that these two terms are not synonymous. The former might mean something more like a riddle while the latter truly means parable. However, both terms are used in the Septuagint to translate the Hebrew term “mashal,” and the paroimian in John 10 behaves just like a parable in Matthew's gospel: Jesus uses earthly shepherds as analogies. I do not believe that there is any meaningful distinction between John's paroimian and Matthew's parabolēn, so I will call the text in John 10 a parable.Sheep Kept at HomeIn verses 1 through 6, Jesus seems to describe the very familiar situation in which sheep were kept “at home.” As I explained above, sheep would be kept in the modern equivalent of the front and backyards. The yard was surrounded by a tall, stone wall. Someone was tasked with watching the sheep and the door. In the parable, the one who enters through the door is one who belongs to the household. He is known to the doorkeeper. The thieves and robbers do not belong to the household, so they must sneak in. Moreover, when the member of the household returns, his sheep recognize him. Notice that there is a bidirectional familiarity described here. Of course the “household member” is familiar with his household; but also, the household (i.e., the doorkeeper and the sheep) is familiar with him.To better understand the parable, let's recall the passage from Ezekiel I quoted above,The Lord's message came to me: “Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel; prophesy, and say to them—to the shepherds: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Woe to the shepherds of Israel who have been feeding themselves! Should not shepherds feed the flock? You eat the fat, you clothe yourselves with the wool, you slaughter the choice animals, but you do not feed the sheep! You have not strengthened the weak, healed the sick, bandaged the injured, brought back the strays, or sought the lost, but with force and harshness you have ruled over them. As the last piece of the puzzle, let's also recall Matthew 23. In the first 7 verses of that chapter, Jesus speaks of the Pharisees as follows,[T]hey do not practice what they teach. They tie up heavy loads, hard to carry, and put them on men's shoulders, but they themselves are not willing even to lift a finger to move them. They do all their deeds to be seen by people, for they make their phylacteries wide and their tassels long. They love the place of honor at banquets and the best seats in the synagogues and elaborate greetings in the marketplaces and to have people call them “Rabbi.”I think the connection of John 10, Ezekiel 34, and Matthew 23 is hard to deny. Jesus' parable demotes the religious leaders from selfish shepherds (like in Ezekiel) to outright thieves and robbers—people outside the household and unrecognizable to the sheep. This is a harsh condemnation of the Pharisees. They are outside of the God's family. Of all people, those who considered themselves most holy stand damned.Sheep Out in the FieldIn verses 7 through 13, Jesus continues to use the shepherd analogy but seemingly changes the setting. Now Jesus seems to be describing a situation in which sheep are being kept in a temporary, summer sheepfold. As I described above, this would have been a temporary structure made of stone and briars. It would not have a door, so the shepherd slept across the opening and became the door himself. If this is the situation that Jesus had in mind, describing himself as the door makes perfect sense. Notice he is still the shepherd, so there is no lack of continuity in the parable.For anyone to enter the fold properly, they must go through Jesus. If they enter the fold any other way, they are nothing but a thief or a robber. Remember, the Jews believed that they were already part of God's family. They shared in God's inheritance because they were descendants of Abraham. Jesus is denying this. Jesus is denying there is any other way to enter God's family but through faith in him. The parable goes a step further. It accuses these impostors of causing harm to the sheep. The Pharisees are not innocently mistaken people; they have evil desires.In verse 11, the parable becomes prophetic. The good shepherd will sacrifice his own life for the sheep. Jesus will do exactly that on the cross. Contrast the good shepherd with the “hired hands.” We understand the difference between an owner and a hired hand very well. People do not take good care of things that are not theirs. The sheep owner is willing to risk (and lose) his life protecting the sheep. The hired hand says, “they don't pay me enough for this” and runs away. If Jesus is the good shepherd, who are the hired hands? Probably the Pharisees. Parables tend to have one message and not multiple, complex messages. Jesus is probably repeating that same, simple message multiple times. In this last iteration of the parable, the Pharisees are described as cowards who did not take real “ownership” of their jobs and left the sheep to die.Knowing GodThe idea of knowing God is found throughout the Old Testament. For example, in Exodus 6:7 God says, “I will take you to myself for a people, and I will be your God. Then you will know that I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from your enslavement to the Egyptians.” In John 10, however, this “knowledge” grows exponentially. Jesus explains that his “own” know him and he knows them—just as the Father knows Jesus and Jesus knows the Father! We must stop and consider the weight of this statement. Consider the intimacy that exists between the Father and the Son. They are one. Believers somehow are elevated to a similar level of closeness with God.Of course, I am not suggesting that believers become one in substance with God. That would be heretical, to say the least. We are creation, he is creator. There is an unbreachable ontological chasm between us. But that is the very reason that we should be shocked when Jesus says, “I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me— just as the Father knows me and I know the Father.” We are brought into a “knowledge” of God that far exceeds that of even the biblical prophets. Remember the words of the prophet Jeremiah (Jeremiah 24:7), “I will give them the desire to acknowledge that I am the Lord. I will be their God, and they will be my people. For they will wholeheartedly return to me.” Our division with God is finally fully remedied. How is this accomplished? Consider John 14:15-17, “If you love me, you will obey my commandments. Then I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate to be with you forever—the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot accept because it does not see him or know him. But you know him because he resides with you and will be in you.”Another SheepfoldJesus will call another sheep “that do not come from this sheepfold.” Who are these other sheep? Let's consider the alternatives. This could be referring to uniting Ephraim and Judah—that is, the northern and southern kingdoms of Israel. In Jesus' time, the northern kingdom was called Samaria. Jesus could also be referring to the Diaspora Jews. For example, when the high priest in Chapter 11 refers to gathering “God's scattered children,” he is referring to Diaspora Jews. This also seems to be the most obvious meaning in passages like Ezekiel 34:13, “I will bring them out from among the peoples and gather them from foreign countries.” The last alternative is that Jesus is referring to Gentiles. I think this is the correct interpretation for multiple reasons. The passage speaks of sheep that are not of “this sheepfold.” Both Ephraim and the Diaspora Jews would be of “this sheepfold.” They are scattered, sure, but they are from the same source. The words of the high priest in Chapter 11 are not dispositive of what Jesus meant in Chapter 10. Also, although Ezekiel's listeners would have interpreted his prophecy to mean Diaspora Jews, we understand Old Testament prophesies were often “bigger” than the original audience would have understood. The Jews expected a political king; they received a king of the universe instead. The Jews expected deliverance for their nation; they received deliverance for the whole world instead. The Jews expected a gathering of the Diaspora; they received a gathering of the whole world instead. Contemporary Jews already believed that Gentiles who converted to Judaism became part of the Jewish people. So, the idea of sheep from another sheepfold becoming part of the Jewish sheepfold would not have been strange. And, finally, this is the interpretation favored by the New Testament. Consider, for example, Romans 11:17. Paul explicitly refers to Gentiles (“wild olive shoots”) as being grafted onto the main olive tree. This is an equivalent analogy to the sheep of another sheepfold.Feast of Dedication (Hanukkah)The SettingHanukkah is an extrabiblical feast—it was not ordained in the Old Testament. A website explains the origin of the feast as follows:When Israel was under the Syrian-Greek Empire, the Temple in Jerusalem had been desecrated and set up as a house of worship to Zeus. A faithful Hebrew priest, Mattathias and his family, known as the Maccabees, led a rebellion for several years to restore Israel's independence and their ability to worship Yahweh properly. According to the second book of Maccabees, the time for the festival of Sukkot (The Feast of Tabernacles, which is a remembrance of Yahweh's provision for the Israelites in the wilderness) passed shortly before their victory. But the Jewish people did not celebrate because the Temple was not in order.However, when they did achieve victory, they began to restore the Temple and they celebrated the Feast of Tabernacles in conjunction with a rededication of the Temple to Yahweh.Hanukkah is celebrated approximately three months after the Feast of Tabernacles, in the wintertime. The season alone would have made it a less popular feast. Like the Feast of Tabernacles, Hanukkah was celebrated for seven days. Notice that Hanukkah celebrated national liberation, not a religious theme. Naturally, we may expect fewer connections between the feast and the biblical passage in John 10.Using a “portico” or porch during the wintertime would have been natural. It provided some shelter from the elements while a speaker gathered with his audience.The Messianic SecretThe Jewish leaders surround Jesus and demand an answer. “Tell us who you are!” (I am paraphrasing, of course.) This naturally raises the question of the Messianic Secret, which I will explain in a minute. However, before we even get to that, let's get to the main irony. In verse 30, Jesus humors them and clearly replies, “I am God.” (Again, I am paraphrasing.). And the Jewish leaders try to kill him. The answer to their question has been clear, it is made clear again, and it is simply not an answer they are willing to accept.What is the Messianic Secret? As a Christian website explains,The Messianic Secret is a theme of biblical criticism developed in 1901 by a German Lutheran theologian named Wilhelm Wrede. The Messianic Secret involves Wrede's explanation for Jesus wanting to hide His identity from His enemies by commanding the disciples to keep silent about His mission on earth and the miracles He performed. Wrede claimed that Jesus did not ever think He was the Messiah and that Mark (and the rest of the New Testament authors) sensationalized Jesus and made Him into the Messiah. Wrede claims Mark added the Messianic Secret in an attempt to give a reason for why Jesus was not accepted by many as Messiah until after His death. Wrede's theory enjoyed some popularity during the 1920s but faded soon thereafter.Is there any biblical basis for Wrede's theory? It is undeniable that Jesus told His disciples on several occasions to keep what He had done secret. Each of those incidents, however, has a much more plausible explanation than the one put forth by Wilhelm Wrede. Further, each is consistent with the other Gospel accounts, and not an invention by Mark.In Mark 1:43–45 Christ commanded the leper He had healed, “‘See that you say nothing to anyone; but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing what Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.' But he went out and began to proclaim it freely, and to spread the word, so that Jesus could no longer go into a town openly, but stayed out in the country; and people came to him from every quarter.” Jesus knew the publicity about the healing would hinder His ability to minister in the area, which is exactly what happened when the leper disobeyed, and worse, the sensationalism caused by miraculous healings would hamper the spreading of His message. Because of the leper's disobedience, Jesus could no longer enter a city without being mobbed by those seeking healing, causing Him to abandon His ministry in the city and keep to relatively uninhabited areas. The healing of the leper is also found in Matthew 8:1–4 and Luke 5:12–16, with Luke reiterating the reason for the command for secrecy in verses 15–16.Further “evidence” for Wrede's theory of secrecy involves the explanation for Jesus speaking in parables in Mark 4:11 where He tells His disciples that the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God had been given to them, but to others He spoke in parables so that, “though seeing, they may not see; though hearing, they may not understand.” This is not, however, a plea for secrecy. Rather, it is an explanation of divine revelation in the hearts of true believers, revelation that is unavailable for those who, like the Pharisees, continued to reject the truth. The “mysteries of the kingdom” are revealed to those who have “ears to hear” but not to those whose hearts are darkened. As the Messiah, the Son of God, Jesus would have been able to distinguish between those two groups. Again, this is not an invention of Mark, as it is reiterated in Matthew 13:11–17.Let's assume the Messianic Secret for a minute. Let's assume that, particularly in the Gospel of Mark, Jesus conceals his identity until the “end of the story.” Is this consistent with what we see in the Gospel of John. I think so. Remember that Jesus' brothers ask him to go do public miracles during the Feast of Tabernacles. Jesus declines and makes his public appearance during the middle of the festival. He performs a miracle (healing the blind man) but he does not perform a highly public miracle, like the feeding of the 5,000. Throughout the Gospel of John, Jesus speaks using imagery that confuses his audience (e.g., “born again,” “living water,” “bread from Heaven”). In fact, the Gospel of John seems to explain the Messianic Secret. Jesus' “own” will listen and believe. Those who are not his sheep will not. Notice that this “listening” is not primarily an intellectual hurdle. In verse 31, the Jewish leaders clearly understand that Jesus is calling himself God. The intellectual component is there. They do not believe, however.You are GodsIn verse 34, Jesus begins to make a how-much-more kind of argument. This line of argumentation is called qal vaomer, and it was commonplace in religious debates among Jesus' contemporaries. Although verses 34 through 36 may seem a little confusing, the argument is as follows:Your* scripture uses the term “god” for people who merely received the word of God.(*When Jesus refers to “your law,” he is not dissociating himself from the Old Testament. He is highlighting the fact that his adversaries are already committed to this first premise.)I did not merely receive the word of God, God set me apart and sent me (i.e., God considers me unique and special). (Notice that the reader is filling in the blanks as well, thinking, “I did not merely receive the word of God, I am the word of God.”How much more should the term “god” be appropriate for me.Bonus Argument: And I do not even call myself “god” but “son of god.” (Notice that Jesus consistently makes himself one with the Father ontologically but subject to the Father in rank.)

Ondersteun deze klassen met een gift: https://eencursusinwonderen.org/doneerLES 170Er schuilt geen wreedheid in God en evenmin in mij.Niemand valt aan zonder de bedoeling te kwetsen. Hierop zijn geen uitzonderingen. Wanneer je denkt dat je aanvalt uit zelfverdediging, wil je zeggen dat wreed zijn bescherming betekent: dankzij wreedheid ben jij veilig. Je wilt zeggen dat je gelooft dat het kwetsen van een ander jou vrijheid bezorgt. En je wilt zeggen dat aanvallen betekent dat je de toestand waarin je verkeert inruilt voor iets beters, iets zekerders, iets wat meer veiligheid biedt tegen een gevaarlijke inval en angst.Hoe door en door waanzinnig is het idee dat de bescherming tegen angst de aanval is! Want hier wordt angst verwekt en met bloed gevoed, om hem te laten groeien, zwellen en woeden. En dus wordt angst beschermd, niet ontvlucht. Vandaag leren we een les die jou meer vertraging en nodeloze ellende kan besparen dan jij je maar enigszins kunt voorstellen. Het is deze:Jij maakt zelf datgene waartegen jij je verdedigt, en door je eigen verdediging ertegen is het werkelijk en onontkoombaar. Leg je wapens neer, en dan pas zie je dat het niet echt is.Het lijkt een vijand vanbuiten te zijn die jij aanvalt. Toch bouwt jouw verdediging een vijand vanbinnen op: een vreemde gedachte, op voet van oorlog met jou, die jou van je vrede berooft en jouw denkgeest in twee kampen splitst die totaal onverzoenlijk lijken. Want liefde heeft nu een ‘vijand', een tegendeel; en angst, de vreemdeling, heeft nu jouw verdediging nodig tegen de bedreiging van wat jij werkelijk bent.Als je zorgvuldig het middel bekijkt waarmee jouw denkbeeldige zelfverdediging voortschrijdt op haar ingebeelde weg, zul je de uitgangspunten zien waarop het idee berust. Ten eerste is het onmiskenbaar dat ideeën hun bron moeten verlaten, want jij bent het die de aanval maakt en hem eerst moet hebben bedacht. Maar je doet een aanval buiten jezelf en scheidt jouw denkgeest van hem die moet worden aangevallen, in het volmaakte vertrouwen dat de scheiding die jij gemaakt hebt, werkelijk is.Vervolgens worden de eigenschappen van de liefde aan haar ‘vijand' toebedeeld. Want angst wordt jouw veiligheid en de beschermer van jouw vrede, waartoe jij je wendt voor troost, voor ontsnapping aan twijfels over jouw kracht, en voor hoop op rust in droomloze stilte. En terwijl liefde beroofd wordt van wat haar en haar alleen toebehoort, wordt ze begiftigd met de eigenschappen van de angst. Want liefde zou jou vragen alle verdedigingen als louter dwaasheid af te leggen. En jouw wapens zouden zeker tot stof vergaan. Want dat is wat ze zijn.Met liefde als vijand wordt wreedheid onherroepelijk een god. En goden eisen dat zij die hen aanbidden, hun bevelen gehoorzamen en het niet wagen die te betwijfelen. Wrede straf wordt meedogenloos uitgedeeld aan hen die vragen of de eisen redelijk of zelfs maar zinnig zijn. Hun vijanden zijn het die onredelijk en krankzinnig zijn, terwijl zij altijd barmhartig en rechtvaardig zijn.Vandaag kijken we gelijkmoedig naar deze wrede god. En we merken op dat hoewel zijn lippen met bloed zijn besmeurd en vuur hem aan alle kanten schijnt uit te slaan, hij slechts van steen is gemaakt. Hij kan niets doen. We hoeven zijn kracht niet te trotseren. Hij heeft er geen. En zij die in hem hun veiligheid zien, hebben geen beschermer, geen kracht om bij gevaar een beroep op te doen, en geen machtige strijder die voor hen vecht.Dit moment kan vreselijk zijn. Maar het kan ook het ogenblik zijn van jouw bevrijding uit een ellendige slavernij. Jij maakt een keuze, terwijl je voor deze afgod staat en hem precies ziet zoals hij is. Wil je aan liefde teruggeven wat jij aan haar hebt proberen te ontwringen om het neer te leggen voor dit levenloze stuk steen? Of wil je een andere afgod maken om deze te vervangen? Want de god van de wreedheid neemt vele vormen aan. Een andere kan worden gevonden.Maar denk niet dat angst de uitweg is uit angst. Laten we ons herinneren wat het tekstboek beklemtoond heeft over de blokkades voor vrede. De laatste, de moeilijkste om van te kunnen geloven dat die niets is, een schijnbare blokkade met het uiterlijk van een massief blok, ondoordringbaar, angstwekkend en onoverwinnelijk, is de angst voor God Zelf. Hier ligt het fundamentele uitgangspunt dat de angstgedachte tot god verheft. Want angst wordt bemind door hen die angst aanbidden, en liefde schijnt nu met wreedheid te zijn bekleed.Waar komt het volslagen waanzinnige geloof in wrekende goden vandaan? Liefde heeft haar eigenschappen niet met die van de angst verward. Toch moeten de aanbidders van de angst hun eigen verwarring waarnemen in de ‘vijand' van de angst, en de wreedheid ervan nu als deel van de liefde zien. En wat wordt dan angstwekkender dan het Hart van de Liefde Zelf? Het bloed schijnt op Zijn Lippen te staan, het vuur slaat Hem uit. En Hij is vreselijk zonder weerga, onvoorstelbaar wreed, en slaat allen neer die Hem als hun God erkennen.De keuze die jij vandaag maakt, staat vast. Want jij kijkt voor het laatst naar dit stuk gebeeldhouwde steen dat jij hebt gemaakt, en noemt het niet langer god. Je bent eerder op deze plaats geweest, maar jij hebt ervoor gekozen dat deze wrede god nog bij jou bleef in weer een andere vorm. En zo is de angst voor God bij je teruggekomen. Deze keer laat je die daar achter. En jij keert naar een nieuwe wereld terug, ontlast van zijn gewicht, gezien niet door zijn nietsziende ogen, maar door de visie die jij dankzij jouw keuze hervonden hebt.Nu behoren jouw ogen aan Christus toe, en kijkt Hij er doorheen. Nu behoort jouw stem aan God toe, en is van de Zijne de weerklank. En nu blijft jouw hart voor eeuwig in vrede. Je hebt Hem verkozen in plaats van afgoden, en jouw eigenschappen, jou door je Schepper verleend, zijn ten langen leste weer van jou. De Roep van Godswege is gehoord en beantwoord. Nu heeft angst ruim baan gemaakt voor liefde, nu God Zelf de plaats van wreedheid inneemt.Vader, wij zijn zoals U. Wreedheid huist er niet in ons, want die is er niet in U. Uw vrede is de onze. En we zegenen de wereld met wat wij van U alleen ontvingen. We kiezen opnieuw en maken onze keus voor al onze broeders, wetend dat zij één met ons zijn. We brengen hun Uw verlossing, zoals wij die nu ontvingen. En wij danken voor hen, want zij maken ons compleet. In hen zien wij Uw heerlijkheid en in hen vinden wij onze vrede. Heilig zijn wij omdat Uw Heiligheid ons heeft bevrijd. En wij zeggen dank. Amen.

Boetsja, Irpin, Borodjanka, Hostomel. Het is een greep uit de voorsteden van Kiev vanwaaruit Russische troepen zich hebben teruggetrokken en waar Oekraïense ooggetuigen nu vertellen over extreem geweld. Dit weekend doken beelden op die de wereld hebben geschokt. Volgens de Oekraïense regering is het nog maar het topje van de ijsberg. Russische militairen lijken zich op veel meer plekken schuldig te maken aan oorlogsmisdaden. Dat is ook de waarneming van Nieuwsuur-verslaggever Gert-Jan Dennekamp, zegt hij in podcast De Dag. Hij sprak afgelopen dagen op verschillende plaatsen met ooggetuigen en was ook bij opgravingen van slachtoffers. Zo zag hij met eigen ogen hoe deze mensen aan hun einde zijn gekomen. "Dan blijkt dat deze mensen zijn geëxecuteerd," vertelt Dennekamp over het onderzoek waar hij bij was. "Dan blijkt dat ze schotwonden aan het hoofd hebben. Van één slachtoffer was de keel doorgesneden en is er met een mes in het hart gestoken. Deze mensen zijn geëxecuteerd, nadat ze door het Russische leger van straat zijn geplukt." Reageren?

In this episode… Mastering Meal Planning Women's Growth + Success Coach, Debbie Shadid, talks with Meal Planning Guru Katie Wrede about her strategies to ease the meal planning struggle.  “What's for dinner?” is probably the most dreaded question by moms everywhere! We spend a ton of time and energy worrying about what to eat, struggling with the planning, or completely avoiding it together, ending in stressed trips to the store and not leaving with everything we need.   Meal Planning Guru Katie Wrede is going to help us work out all the mealtime brain drama and learn about her system to help you create your OWN system for meal planning to keep it simple, minimal, and working really well for your family's needs and tastes.  Join the Meal Planning Academy here: https://www.katiewredecoaching.com/applyOr find Katie on...Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/katie.wrede.coachingInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/katie.wrede.coachingPinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/katiewredecoachingTwitter: http://www.twitter.com/katiewcoaching YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYHrOJoRDNJsSlHdWuVQfOA  Need some accountability?

That works so well that you'd think we planned it, but as you are likely well aware, this isn't really that kind of show. Hop into the interdecisional spaceship and travel with us to a time long ago, the year 2000. Specifically, we'll travel to a time and place where a cutting-edge board game with a strange name has just been released. The game? Carcassonne. In today's episode, we discuss the decision space, decisions, and much more in this classic design by Klaus-Jürgen Wrede. We hope you enjoy our conversation.   Games Discussed Carcassonne, Underwater Cities, Ticket to Ride and more...   Preplan Your Next Turn Next week is a what we talk about episode (yay!), where we will talk about making mistakes in board games (yay?).   Call to Action Leave us a review and we'll read it on the next episode!
