Brings to mind sweaty sleepless nights, wrestling with my understanding of God and His purposes and will for me. Sometimes for my dominance over His will for me, which is never good or reasonable. He displayed His son on the cross as payment for my broken relationship with Him, due to Adam breaking his relationship with God. We all wrestle thru the massive lies and deceit amassed against our limited understanding. But Go is not willing for us to die for our own sin, so He provided payment by another means, Jesus Christ. He will not dicker or wrestle with the amount owed, or the method of payment. It is take it, or leave it. Leave it? Pay your own debt.
@@danielharney138 You have said well.
"Called or not called God is there". Love it!
Atheism is "I'm too virtuous for God". Because one of the first things they'll say when you ask why, will be something to do with God being immoral in their eyes, therefore God, or the concept of, is immoral compared to them and their feelings about right & wrong. There's always this energy of sulking, and a sort of teenager level defiance in the objections.
We wrestle with ourselves the spirit against the flesh
When I am weak HE is strong. I am so weak
We all are , just believe and trust in God's grace
If you read the passage it actually says “For when I am weak, then I am strong”. Meaning when I am weak, through God I am strong (as it is in Gods strength not my own). Credit to Steven Furtick 🩷🙏
He is the answer we are all searching for in life. The answer is Jesus Christ. ❤
The Holy Spirit moved on this man while he was talking. I love it!
'What's at the top, something that recedes when you approach it'. That is so very well put. The goal is never the goal and it has never been the goal. The goal is to always struggle upwards, always reach for what you know to be better for yourself and keep going
Just knowing there's an intelligent man like you out there gives me hope
Jordan is getting better 🙂
Yes, and a joy it's been to watch him become. It feels as though we have tread the path together.
Ephesians 6:12 we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but ... against spiritual wickedness in high places. Genesis 22:5 Abraham said to his servants, “Stay here with the donkey as I and the boy walk further to worship before we return.” Romans 12:1b Worship God by offering your body as a living, holy, and pleasing sacrifice.
Thank you Lord, that Ephesians continues and tells us we have the armor of God, we must put it on, read on, look it up. Don't take my word on it. 🤔
@@rosemarysanders1105 Yes, my point is that Christians don't wrestle with God we love Him and yield to His Spirit, following His Son, unlike Jacob. Maybe JBP is still wrestling with God.
@@wiseguy1153sadly so many Christians have that approach, then comes the struggle and they fall away. Most live insipid lives mumbling platitudes and superstition. God delights in mankind and rewards those who "diligently seek him". Petersen is one of those diligent seekers. He inspires me!
Wrestle in humility. Praise Elohim!
Thank you Mr. Peterson. God bless you.
Dr JP you are a truly good man...and there aren't many good men these days. Keep speaking up. Thank you for the light you bring to these dark days. God bless you and your family
Wow. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for this video! Both amazing
Whether you like the guy or not, if this doesn’t move you, what does?
This Jewish psyop he propagating is a lie.
I am wrestling right this minute.
“If your all dead wood then the fire of god looks like hell”
I'm still grasping what that means
@@s1ckch1ckI think it means find the Truth, the Way and Life. Be with it, walk with it and be full of it. Lest we be dead wood and burn with our consumption of hollow lifeless things.
Perhaps this also means that we have to watch over ourselves, because if we are only dead wood, without life, without love, without truth, without hope, without forgiveness, without self-giving, then when God , consuming fire that He is, consumes us, it can seem like hell to us.
Because having everything that makes us up, going through the fire, is an incredible amount of suffering for our fragile existences.@@s1ckch1ck
**Love these men*** Sosmart and Father is blessing them daily with His bread and wine
Im praying There is hope for a fool like me praying for grace and mercy to all in Jesus name Amen !
We appear to have been given the answers. Just up to us if we take the advice or carry on aimlessly into chaos.
Though Jordan Peterson is not Christian, I can see his immense respect and emotion for the faith in the way he communicates the principles from the Bible as he understands them....and so far he has been able to explain things in a way that makes the principles more real to our modern lives....I have so much admiration and respect for him ❤❤
He is a Christian
"Remember who your wrestling with, have a little humility or a lot. Enough to strip you of your deadwood cause if your all deadwood, the fire of God looks like hell" ⚜️🔥⚜️
For me its a feeling of peace that come over me because i know in spite of me not being worthy Jesus died on the cross for me its my responsiblity now that i know with out a dought its a battle within oneself to humble our hearts in praise in worship in thoughts in our endevorse come from the heart God sees our hearts .its a more than a monumental task to edyfy Jesus so i focus on the task at hand a nd be at peace knowing the fact that he died for all sinners if a person true seeks God in prayer and study with thier heart then God will give you decernment of sins and bad things not of the God in the Bible and we must repent in our the hearts and turn from sins and love the lorde and our neibors in our hearts. The burdens is light trust Jesus .
Convalescence in the Holy Spirit is a motion in the Holy Spirit that brings forth new life in God that continually begats family unto new life.
Even when all seems lost trust Jesus.
Maybe it's like Saying...to have such personal contact... like kids in The hours of child hood... it's a relationship.. it's Not enough to just make you Rich and bring Wisdom...He sends an Angel..to Fight until morning.. You're bigger than the Angel.. when the Day break's in the Future a Future Man who has flights of intellectual empowered..
I need to know what the contrast between conception and intuition are.
Intuition grasps things faster than Mind (Concept/Understanding).
Honest human struggles is a soul's deepest reckoning and awakening. Who says wrestling the way Jacob did is discouraged? Strong willed Jacob brought his All into the picture and the wrestling was so intense that it lasted till morning with Jacob's hip ultimately suffering from a limp thereafter, humbled. Jacob was far from perfect but he was authentic; he didn't let go till he got what he wanted-a blessing from the One he wrestled with. He certainly had gumption.
Plain Truth.
Jordan is a wrestler too
What your problum and prayer for you God healing health in the name of jesus christ .
Well that realization just hit me. It also makes sense to the vine and branches parable and bearing fruit and all that. Christ calls us the branches to allow our spirit to bear fruit. God is a holy and all powerful being of purity many have said fire or light. Being in the presence of God to many feels warm, soft, and peaceful. However to the wicked, they feel fear, burning, and extreme discomfort. God in his mercy allows Hell because he doesn’t want to hurt his children anymore than necessary, and sends them to be away from him since being close is hurting them. The process of getting close to God burns away deadwood which either burns you up entirely, or heals a serious wound or flaw like cauterizing. Thus allowing healing and flourishing to take place. Another thing I think God does is when we seek him and ask him to change us and better us is that he burns the deadwood and uses the remains as fertilizer so to speak to help us grow even stronger than before. The plant parables make way more sense after hearing that.

***The ending is profound...Disappears into the heights, and what's at the top? Something that recedes as you approach It... Yet, draw nigh unto me the Lord says, and I will draw unto you**
Repentence is a selfless change of heart a change out of love for God not for rewards or to save our own necks from Hell we need to love and and fear God i heard someone say Gods not bubble gum gum he is not to be chewed on or tempted in word or deed but to seek him trust him praise him i fall short of the glory of God daily so lets all pray for each other Amen .
Why is it easier to believe in a creator than Jesus, the bible ect? Dealing with trauma/ptsd/benzo wd/abusive situation, chronic life threatening health issues, i want to believe but feel incapable, this is so scary
Because once your eyes are opened, you realize that the whole world shouts out with evidence of the Creator’s handiwork!
It’s okay have patience, you’re on the Path, just keep following what sticks out to you. Fill your mind with scripture (especially red letter passages, Christ’s words) and meditate/reflect on what they could mean for your life (whether Christ be concrete or symbolic)
-from a friend who clawed out of the PTSD ABYSS
I didn't believe in God either. During the worst part of my life, He reached out in Love and in a leap of faith, I believed Him. A leap of faith turned into an encounter with the Living God.
I imagine it's not so easy when youre at the top of your game and He doesnt 'exist'. I remember always feeling empty, but thinking I had everything but also - is there more than this? Or is this it? Just be a horizontally good person to those around me?
I guess the first step would be to walk in skepticism. Encounter the Logos in the bible, learn the character of something that hasn't manifested yet.
Have an imaginary friend you question. Ask questions into the void of silence.
And speak the positive, love filled, living water of the logos over your life.
It's like trying to meet a friend of a friend, you hear about them, you think youre kind of starting to know them even though you havent met them, but doubting they even exist bc the friend of a friend is never encountered, until they are.
Faith takes letting go of the rational mind for a moment. God gave us a sound mind, but sight doesn't define faith.
Faith defines sight by setting the perspective and lens life is seen through.
You read psalm ch140 read it.
Of course we wrestle with God; all true believers do.
or does it mean he questioned or struggled with God?
To believe in God and wrestle with Him, you need to know what the hell is
Hell is everything that denies or has abandoned God. Speaking from personal experience. Life is hell without Jesus Christ.
@drewd4491 Yes, Jesus Christ is the way, the truth, and the life.
Come to Earth, they said. Become an incarnate being, they said .. Hey, I just dropped by to skin dive the pit, not to get caught up in the mosh, you know? 💜🕊
Before approaching the tree to begin your match, know these things about God: God is Good, Faithful, Unerring, Complete, and Eternal - if you do not believe these things, do not approach, because the result of your struggle will be madness. I really do mean you MUST not have a crack in those core beliefs. Blessed are they that have believed, and not seen! .. because it isn't God you will be wrestling .. it is Leviathan .. or the serpent, if you like that analogy better. Jordan is trying to understand through intellect here, and he isn't making the connection .. I don't think he's quite ready, actually .. but when he is, oh boy .. I will stand by and prepare to be amazed! 💜
Does God hate you if you get rich? Does he not love you unless you are low and humble? Is that why I'm being systematically held down, head under water? Because my family wants me to go to heaven? Or is my family like the opposite of the Amish and I'm being ousted because I'm a true believer? It feels like it.
If mammals believed in humans, acknowledgment, read reconcile belief of living.
Dear sir,
What is your profession and what kind of selfishness service to God.
Or Get on Your Knees and Pray to the Lengthy Depths of thought, ''Whole Heartedly,'' and Just Ask God to show You he's There! If Your Open Minded Enough, to understand that the Answer Could Come From Anyone or, Anywhere or, Anything at Anytime, Keeping in mind, You Prayed for this! He'll Answer You! And There's Your Mustard Seed.. 😎🙏👍✝✝
Clad in the rusty armour of God like a tuna Leviathan in a can, sporting a Medusa shield, the Heroic Peterson comes to kill the Dragon, still limping after a drunken brawl with a Leftist angel.
*squeak, squeak*
Peterson lets Rocinante return to the Unconscious lush pastures ‘Go. Be free. And if you see Zizek, tell him that I forgive him, and so on and so on’.
*squeak, squeak*
‘Show yourself, Dragon, from the depths of the shadows!’
The Dragon and her pet the dragon come to the exit of cave to see what the commotion was about.
‘Yes? How may I help you?’
Peterson mumbles something for a while. The Dragon and the dragon look at each other in confusion as they cannot make anything of the faint noises behind the Hero’s rusty visor.
Peterson lifts the creaking visor.
‘Can you hear me now?’
His eyes get bigger with sheer horror as he beholds them, and a whisper falls from his mouth ‘Mary, Mother of God…’ as he faints.
The dragon rushes to fetch him some water whilst The Dragon holds Peterson’s limp body in her arms.
I AM ISRAEL. I love Jordan Peterson ❤
Wrestling with a system that makes no sense in human terms …. ! Fear denies us of the truth.
God wants you tap out and say I surrender to you. Thy will be done.
He wants to cry .
483. Club. Jordan Peterson. David goggins. And no girls. Ever.
Dear Mr. Peterson.... you are not far from the Kingdom... Jesus is the one you have yet to meet.❤️
NO he's NOT , Hes called that after the sacrifices or rather goes to sacrifice his son and God holds him back at the last minute , wrestling is our stuff we come to the point where we wrestle.
You are confusing Jacob with Abraham now… please re-read Genesis
Romans 8:5-11
5 Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. 6 The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace. 7 The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. 8 Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot please God.
9 You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ. 10 But if Christ is in you, then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life[d] because of righteousness. 11 And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of[e] his Spirit who lives in you.
Dr peterson concept of God is highly sophisticated & Deep,, but although of this it is drianed from christianity & there some limitations in it,, it seems heretrix but if you try out Read about the God in islamic books of beleive,, & you will figure out this issue,, & obtain avery impressive concept that made Your beleive in the God is way more beyond Unlimited,,
This idea not from religous prejudice,,
For example the attitude towards beleive in God is not restricted in just beleiving the fact of his existence or not,, it is way more beyond that,, the beleive in God begin from there not end or become clear way as you pretend that you beleive & consider Your self that way,,
God is more upmost thing you can think about & become in full astonshiment,,,
Yes God in a steel cage match . Perhaps God could get Peterson a new tailor
Never wrestled with God , nor Poseidon, Zeus , Apollo . No need to argue over myths
Bruh tell him about Jesus
Jacob needs to wrestle with God no longer, Jesus made a way for all of mankind, including the Jews.
I experienced an open Heaven in Fiji in 2009 while my daughter was worship leading, we audibly heard Angels singing like they were in the room. The Son of Man now lives inside believers through His Spirit, it's a timeless truth. Those without deceit will ‘see’ the greater works, an open heaven. The pure in heart ‘see’ God.
Yeshua saw Nathaniel when he came to him and said about him: “Behold, truly a son of Israel in whom is no deceit.” John 1:47 Aramaic
He said to him: “Timeless truth I speak to you all: From this hour you shall see Heaven being opened and the Angels of God as they ascend and escend unto The Son of Man.” John 1:51 Aramaic
Yeshua said to him: “Do you believe because I said to you, 'I saw you under the fig tree? You shall see greater things than these.” John 1:50 Aramaic
"Timeless truth, I tell you: 'whoever believes in me, those works which I have done he will also do, and he will do greater works than these, because I am going to the presence of my Father.' " John 14:12 Aramaic
Blessed are those who are pure in their hearts, for they shall see God. Matt. 5:8 Aramaic
Nathaniel (less frequently, Nathanel, Nathanael or Nathanial) is a given name derived from the Greek form of the Hebrew נְתַנְאֵל (Netan'el), meaning "God/El has given" or "Gift of God/El."
Not true. The path Jesus opened doesn't alter the reality that we must work out our own salvation, hence wrestle, particularly in the latter stages of faith where we go from milk to meat, to solid mature spiritual food. Moreover, God is not a christian God but the God of all who seeks, knocks and loves Him over everything else and their neighbors as themselves. This can happen to people of all faith traditions or as with Eckhart Tolle, as a secular guy completely surrendering to our God.
If you’re referring to the one and only one God and Jesus Christ .. who is God .. then you are right . Jesus said he is the way the truth and the life and no one comes to his father except through him.. so pious and disingenuous when people give Jesus some lip service by saying he is one way to God , while at the same time calling Jesus a liar or a delusional lunatic.. funny isn’t it??? Actually not at all.. it’s tragic for that person
Whose god Jordan? So many to choose from.
Jesus Christ. The rest are frauds
We create our own. There is an infinite amount of gods.
The one that works. The God of The Bible. Jesus Christ.
Test it out on your own life. Try it. Try to have a relationship with Jesus. See how it goes. It will change your life and the lives of those around you. If you let it.
@@AndrewsArt78 you mean, “Ophiuchus”.
There is only one God, the God who created the heavens ( plural ) and the earth and everything on the earth, in the earth and under the earth. The one God who came as a man, Jesus Christ and offered himself as the last blood sacrifice so all people can have a chance of eternal life in the kingdom of heaven.
Sadly Jordan Peterson does not understand the Bible at all. He does not understand or believe the gospel of Jesus Christ. It's all just a big allegory to him. This is what the Bible calls being spoiled through philosophy and vain deceit after the rudiments of the world and not after Christ. Having said that I've enjoyed a great many things that Peterson has said. But when it comes to understanding the Word of God, you've missed the mark.
Who are you to tell another mans perspective of the Bible?
God is raising up the Cyrus’s to speak and upset the religious
@@MrEugene13well first let me say that that's a stupid question. It's a stupid question because Jordan Peterson has made his views very clear on the Bible. Which is why I'm able to critique them. So to answer your question I'm someone who is actually a born again Christian according to the word of God. I know the Bible is the word of God. I know it's not just a big allegory. I know that it means what it says and says what it means. I know that Jesus Christs death on the cross is not Just a metaphor or an allegory of some other spiritual truth. He literally died for sin and if we put our faith and trust in his a attoning sacrifice for sin we can be saved. If you actually knew the Bible at all you would know that discernment is one of the manifestations of the spirit, and you don't have any, discernment that is. It's also hypocritical for you to critique me while disapproving of my critique of Jordan Peterson. Does that do it for you?
@@BarryMaskell Chapter and verse please. Nonsense.
Jacob was wrestling with a physical god. As in sweating, blood, spit and all the homoeroticism that implies. God was losing so he twisted Jacob’s genitals.
Like… deal with the actual text before making hay piles of metaphorical chaff to distract from how weird and foreign this story is.
He fails to mention that This “god” saw that he could not beat Jacob. Explain this.😂😂😂 Genesis 32:25 what a joke
Revelation 7
New International Version
144,000 Sealed
7 After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth to prevent any wind from blowing on the land or on the sea or on any tree. 2 Then I saw another angel coming up from the east, having the seal of the living God. He called out in a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm the land and the sea: 3 “Do not harm the land or the sea or the trees until we put a seal on the foreheads of the servants of our God.” 4 Then I heard the number of those who were sealed: 144,000 from all the tribes of Israel.
5 From the tribe of Judah 12,000 were sealed,
from the tribe of Reuben 12,000,
from the tribe of Gad 12,000,
6 from the tribe of Asher 12,000,
from the tribe of Naphtali 12,000,
from the tribe of Manasseh 12,000,
7 from the tribe of Simeon 12,000,
from the tribe of Levi 12,000,
from the tribe of Issachar 12,000,
8 from the tribe of Zebulun 12,000,
from the tribe of Joseph 12,000,
from the tribe of Benjamin 12,000.
The Great Multitude in White Robes
9 After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. 10 And they cried out in a loud voice:
“Salvation belongs to our God,
who sits on the throne,
and to the Lamb.”
11 All the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures. They fell down on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, 12 saying:
“Amen!
Praise and glory
and wisdom and thanks and honor
and power and strength
be to our God for ever and ever.
Amen!”
13 Then one of the elders asked me, “These in white robes-who are they, and where did they come from?”
14 I answered, “Sir, you know.”
And he said, “These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. 15 Therefore,
“they are before the throne of God
and serve him day and night in his temple;
and he who sits on the throne
will shelter them with his presence.
16 ‘Never again will they hunger;
never again will they thirst.
The sun will not beat down on them,’[a]
nor any scorching heat.
17 For the Lamb at the center of the throne
will be their shepherd;
‘he will lead them to springs of living water.’[b]
‘And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.
That’s me the morning Star
Ezekiel 36
New International Version
Hope for the Mountains of Israel
36 “Son of man, prophesy to the mountains of Israel and say, ‘Mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord. 2 This is what the Sovereign Lord says: The enemy said of you, “Aha! The ancient heights have become our possession.”’ 3 Therefore prophesy and say, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Because they ravaged and crushed you from every side so that you became the possession of the rest of the nations and the object of people’s malicious talk and slander, 4 therefore, mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Sovereign Lord: This is what the Sovereign Lord says to the mountains and hills, to the ravines and valleys, to the desolate ruins and the deserted towns that have been plundered and ridiculed by the rest of the nations around you- 5 this is what the Sovereign Lord says: In my burning zeal I have spoken against the rest of the nations, and against all Edom, for with glee and with malice in their hearts they made my land their own possession so that they might plunder its pastureland.’ 6 Therefore prophesy concerning the land of Israel and say to the mountains and hills, to the ravines and valleys: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I speak in my jealous wrath because you have suffered the scorn of the nations. 7 Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I swear with uplifted hand that the nations around you will also suffer scorn.
8 “‘But you, mountains of Israel, will produce branches and fruit for my people Israel, for they will soon come home. 9 I am concerned for you and will look on you with favor; you will be plowed and sown, 10 and I will cause many people to live on you-yes, all of Israel. The towns will be inhabited and the ruins rebuilt. 11 I will increase the number of people and animals living on you, and they will be fruitful and become numerous. I will settle people on you as in the past and will make you prosper more than before. Then you will know that I am the Lord. 12 I will cause people, my people Israel, to live on you. They will possess you, and you will be their inheritance; you will never again deprive them of their children.
13 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Because some say to you, “You devour people and deprive your nation of its children,” 14 therefore you will no longer devour people or make your nation childless, declares the Sovereign Lord. 15 No longer will I make you hear the taunts of the nations, and no longer will you suffer the scorn of the peoples or cause your nation to fall, declares the Sovereign Lord.’”
Israel’s Restoration Assured
16 Again the word of the Lord came to me: 17 “Son of man, when the people of Israel were living in their own land, they defiled it by their conduct and their actions. Their conduct was like a woman’s monthly uncleanness in my sight. 18 So I poured out my wrath on them because they had shed blood in the land and because they had defiled it with their idols. 19 I dispersed them among the nations, and they were scattered through the countries; I judged them according to their conduct and their actions. 20 And wherever they went among the nations they profaned my holy name, for it was said of them, ‘These are the Lord’s people, and yet they had to leave his land.’ 21 I had concern for my holy name, which the people of Israel profaned among the nations where they had gone.
22 “Therefore say to the Israelites, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: It is not for your sake, people of Israel, that I am going to do these things, but for the sake of my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations where you have gone. 23 I will show the holiness of my great name, which has been profaned among the nations, the name you have profaned among them. Then the nations will know that I am the Lord, declares the Sovereign Lord, when I am proved holy through you before their eyes.
24 “‘For I will take you out of the nations; I will gather you from all the countries and bring you back into your own land. 25 I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean; I will cleanse you from all your impurities and from all your idols. 26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. 27 And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws. 28 Then you will live in the land I gave your ancestors; you will be my people, and I will be your God. 29 I will save you from all your uncleanness. I will call for the grain and make it plentiful and will not bring famine upon you. 30 I will increase the fruit of the trees and the crops of the field, so that you will no longer suffer disgrace among the nations because of famine. 31 Then you will remember your evil ways and wicked deeds, and you will loathe yourselves for your sins and detestable practices. 32 I want you to know that I am not doing this for your sake, declares the Sovereign Lord. Be ashamed and disgraced for your conduct, people of Israel!
33 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: On the day I cleanse you from all your sins, I will resettle your towns, and the ruins will be rebuilt. 34 The desolate land will be cultivated instead of lying desolate in the sight of all who pass through it. 35 They will say, “This land that was laid waste has become like the garden of Eden; the cities that were lying in ruins, desolate and destroyed, are now fortified and inhabited.” 36 Then the nations around you that remain will know that I the Lord have rebuilt what was destroyed and have replanted what was desolate. I the Lord have spoken, and I will do it.’
37 “This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Once again I will yield to Israel’s plea and do this for them: I will make their people as numerous as sheep, 38 as numerous as the flocks for offerings at Jerusalem during her appointed festivals. So will the ruined cities be filled with flocks of people. Then they will know that I am the Lord.”
The Gospel of Judas consists of 16 chapters which document Jesus' teaching about spiritual matters and cosmology. According to the text, Judas is the only one of Jesus' disciples who accurately understands the words of his master. This Gospel contains few narrative elements; essentially, the Gospel records how Judas was taught by Jesus the true meaning of his message.
The Gospel contains ideas which contradicted the doctrine of the early Church. The author says that God is essentially a "luminous cloud of light" who exists in an imperishable realm.[15] Adamas, the spiritual father of all humanity, was created in God's image and dwelt in the imperishable realm.
At the beginning of time, God created a group of angels and lower gods. Twelve angels were willed to "come into being [to] rule over chaos and the [underworld]".[16] The angels of creation were tasked with creating a physical body for Adamas, which became known as the first man Adam. Gradually, humanity began to forget its divine origins and some of Adam's descendants (Cain and Abel) became embroiled in the world's first murder. Many humans came to think that the imperfect physical universe was the totality of creation, losing their knowledge of God and the imperishable realm.
Jesus was sent as the Son of the true God, not of one of the lesser gods. His mission was to show that salvation consists in connecting with the God within the man. Through embracing the internal God, the man can then return to the imperishable realm.
Eleven of the disciples Jesus chose to spread his message misunderstood the central tenets of his teaching. They were obsessed with the physical world of the senses. The author says that they continued to practice religious animal sacrifice, which pleased the lower gods but did not help to foster a connection with the true God. They wrongly taught that those martyred in the name of Christ would be bodily resurrected.
In contrast, Jesus is able to teach Judas the true meaning of his life, ministry and death. Mankind can be divided into two races, or groups. Those who are furnished with the immortal soul, like Judas, can come to know the God within and enter the imperishable realm when they die. Those among the same group as the other eleven disciples cannot enter the realm of God and will die both spiritually and physically at the end of their lives. As practices that are intertwined with the physical world, animal sacrifice and a communion ceremony involving "cannibalism" (the consumption of Jesus' flesh and blood) are condemned as abhorrent. The other Gospels say that Jesus had to die in order to atone for the sins of humanity. The author of the Gospel of Judas expresses the view that this sort of substitutionary justice only pleases the lower gods and angels; that the true God is gracious and does not demand any sacrifice.
As a Gnostic text
edit
Amy-Jill Levine, professor of New Testament Studies at Vanderbilt University Divinity School, was on the team of scholars responsible for unveiling the work. She said that the Gospel of Judas contains no new historical information concerning Jesus or Judas.[14]
Historians Elaine Pagels and Karen Leigh King argue that a more nuanced, contextualized understanding of alternative interpretations of the Christian tradition should inform discussions of Gnosticism. In the centuries following Jesus's death, many differing views of the meaning of his life and death existed. Nicene Christianity (i.e. the views which came to be summarized in the doctrines contained in the Nicene Creed) existed alongside various cults (one of which was labelled 'Gnosticism') for centuries, until the Nicenian interpretation became accepted as "mainstream" Christianity.[17]
Modern rediscovery
edit
The initial translation of the Gospel of Judas was widely publicized but simply confirmed the account that was written in Irenaeus and known Gnostic beliefs, leading some scholars to simply summarize the discovery as nothing new. It is also argued that a closer reading of the existent text, as presented in October 2006, shows Christianity in a new light. According to Elaine Pagels, for instance, Judas is portrayed as having a mission to hand Jesus over to the soldiers. She says that Bible translators have mistranslated the Greek word for "handing over" to "betrayal".[18]
Like many Gnostic works, the Gospel of Judas refers to itself as a secret account, specifically "The secret account of the revelation that Jesus spoke in conversation with Judas Iscariot...."[16]
The Gospel of Judas states that Jesus told Judas "You shall be cursed for generations" and then added, "You will come to rule over them" and "You will exceed all of them, for you will sacrifice the man that clothes me."[19]
Unlike the four canonical gospels, which employ narrative accounts of the last year of Jesus's life (in the case of John, three years) and of his birth (in the case of Luke and Matthew), the Judas gospel takes the form of dialogues between Jesus and Judas, and Jesus and the twelve disciples, without being embedded in any narrative. Such "dialogue gospels" were popular during the early decades of Christianity and the New Testament apocrypha contains several examples, such as the Gospel of Mary.
Like the canonical gospels, the Gospel of Judas portrays the scribes as approaching Jesus with the intention of arresting him, and Judas receiving money from them after handing Jesus over to them. However, unlike Judas in the canonical gospels, who is portrayed as a villain, and excoriated by Jesus ("Alas for that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed. It would be better for that man if he had never been born," Mark 14:21; Matthew 26:24),[20] the Judas gospel portrays Judas as a divinely appointed instrument of a grand and predetermined purpose. "In the last days they will curse your ascent to the holy (generation)."[16]
Elsewhere in the manuscript, Jesus favours Judas above other disciples by saying, "Step away from the others and I shall tell you the mysteries of the kingdom," and "Look, you have been told everything. Lift up your eyes and look at the cloud and the light within it and the stars surrounding it. The star that leads the way is your star."
The great star will burn for seven days,
The cloud will cause two suns to appear:
The big mastiff will howl all night
When the great pontiff will change country.
-Nostradamus
Through the fifth one and a great Hercules
They will come to open the temple by hand of war:
One Clement, Julius and Ascanius set back,
The sword, key, eagle, never was there such a great animosity.

Maitreya
Future Buddha in Buddhist eschatology
Maitreya or Metteyya, is a bodhisattva who is regarded as the future Buddha of this world in all schools of Buddhism, prophesied to become Maitreya Buddha or Metteyya Buddha. In some Buddhist literature, such as the Amitabha Sutra and the Lotus Sutra, he is also referred to as Ajitā. In Tibetan Buddhism he is known as the "Lord of Love" or the "Noble Loving One". The root of his name is the Sanskrit word maitrī. The name Maitreya is also related to the Indo-Iranian name Mitra. In all branches of Buddhism, Maitreya is viewed as the direct successor of Gautama Buddha. As the fifth and final Buddha of the current kalpa, Maitreya's teachings will be focused around re-establishing the Buddha's Dharma on Earth. According to scriptures, Maitreya's teachings will be similar to those of Gautama. The arrival of Maitreya is prophesied to occur during an era of decline when the teachings of Gautama Buddha have been disregarded or largely forgotten. Wikipedia

History of the Rothschild Bank, World's Biggest Bank
HERE IS THE HISTORY OF THE HOUSE OF ROTHSCHILD YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THIS DUE TO THEIR HUGE INFLUENCE OVER WORLD FINANCES.
The House Of Rothschild
Posted on 09/15/2017 | Leave a comment
(Excerpted from Chapter 19: The Eight Families: Big Oil & Their Bankers…)
The Rothschild family combined with the Dutch House of Orange to found Bank of Amsterdam in the early 1600’s as the world’s first central bank.
Prince William of Orange married into the English House of Windsor, taking King James II’s daughter Mary as his bride. The Orange Order Brotherhood, which has recently fomented Northern Ireland Protestant violence, put William III on the English throne where he ruled both Holland and Britain. In 1694 William III teamed up with the Rothschilds to launch the Bank of England.
The Old Lady of Threadneedle Street- as the Bank of England is known- is surrounded by thirty foot walls. Three floors beneath it the third largest stock of gold bullion in the world is stored. [842] The daily London gold “fixing” occurs at the N. M. Rothschild Bank. As Bank of England Deputy Governor George Blunden put it, “Fear is what makes the bank’s powers so acceptable. The bank is able to exert its influence when people are dependent on us and fear losing their privileges or when they are frightened.”[843]
Mayer Amschel Rothschild sold the British government German Hessian mercenaries to fight against American Revolutionaries, diverting the proceeds to his brother Nathan in London, where N.M. (Nathan and Mayer) Rothschild & Sons was established. Mayer was a serious student of Cabala and launched his fortune on money embezzled from William IX- royal administrator of the Hesse-Kassel region and a prominent Freemason.
Rothschild-controlled Barings bankrolled the Chinese opium and African slave trades. It financed the Louisiana Purchase. When several states defaulted on its loans, Barings bribed Daniel Webster to make speeches stressing the virtues of loan repayment. The states held their ground, so the House of Rothschild cut off the money spigot in 1842, plunging the US into a deep depression. It was often said that the wealth of the Rothschilds depended on the bankruptcy of nations. Mayer Amschel Rothschild once said, “I care not who controls a nation’s political affairs, so long as I control her currency”.
War didn’t hurt the family fortune either. The House of Rothschild financed the Prussian War, the Crimean War and the British attempt to seize the Suez Canal from the French. Nathan Rothschild made a huge financial bet on Napoleon at the Battle of Waterloo, while also funding the Duke of Wellington’s peninsular campaign against Napoleon. Both the Mexican War and the Civil War were goldmines for the family.
A Rothschild family biography mentions a London meeting where an “International Banking Syndicate” decided to pit the American North against the South as part of a “divide and conquer” strategy. German Chancellor Otto von Bismarck once stated, “The division of the United States into federations of equal force was decided long before the Civil War. These bankers were afraid that the United States…would upset their financial domination over the world. The voice of the Rothschilds prevailed.”
Rothschild biographer Derek Wilson says the family was the official European banker to the US government and strong supporters of the Bank of the United States. [844] Family biographer Niall Ferguson notes a “substantial and unexplained gap” in private Rothschild correspondence between 1854-1860. He says all copies of outgoing letters written by the London Rothschilds during this Civil War period “were destroyed at the orders of successive partners”. [845]
French and British troops had, at the height of the Civil War, encircled the US. The British sent 11,000 troops to Crown-controlled Canada, which gave safe harbor to Confederate agents. France’s Napoleon III installed Austrian Hapsburg family member Archduke Maximilian as his puppet emperor in Mexico, where French troops massed on the Texas border. Only an 11th-hour deployment of two Russian warship fleets by US ally Czar Alexander II in 1863 saved the United States from re-colonization. [846] That same year the Chicago Tribune blasted, “Belmont (August Belmont was a US Rothschild agent and had a Triple Crown horse race named in his honor) and the Rothschilds…who have been buying up Confederate war bonds.”
Salmon Rothschild said of a deceased President Lincoln, “He rejects all forms of compromise. He has the appearance of a peasant and can only tell barroom stories.” Baron Jacob Rothschild was equally flattering towards the US citizenry. He once commented to US Minister to Belgium Henry Sanford on the over half a million Americans who died during the Civil War, “When your patient is desperately sick, you try desperate measures, even to bloodletting.” Salmon and Jacob were merely carrying forth a family tradition. A few generations earlier Mayer Amschel Rothschild bragged of his investment strategy, “When the streets of Paris are running in blood, I buy”.
Mayer Rothschild’s sons were known as the Frankfurt Five. The eldest- Amschel- ran the family’s Frankfurt bank with his father, while Nathan ran London operations. Youngest son Jacob set up shop in Paris, while Salomon ran the Vienna branch and Karl was off to Naples. Author Frederick Morton estimates that by 1850 the Rothschilds were worth over $10 billion. [847] Some researchers believe that their fortune today exceeds $100 trillion.
The Warburgs, Kuhn Loebs, Goldman Sachs, Schiffs and Rothschilds have intermarried into one big happy banking family. The Warburg family- which controls Deutsche Bank and Banque Paribas- tied up with the Rothschilds in 1814 in Hamburg, while Kuhn Loeb powerhouse Jacob Schiff shared quarters with Rothschilds in 1785. Schiff immigrated to America in 1865. He joined forces with Abraham Kuhn and married Solomon Loeb’s daughter. Loeb and Kuhn married each
Edmond de RLoeb and Kuhn married each others sisters and the Kuhn Loeb dynasty was consummated. Felix Warburg married Jacob Schiff’s daughter. Two Goldman daughters married two sons of the Sachs family, creating Goldman Sachs. In 1806 Nathan Rothschild married the oldest daughter of Levi Barent Cohen, a leading financier in London. [848] Merrill Lynch super bull Abby Joseph Cohen and Clinton Secretary of Defense William Cohen are thus descended from Rothschilds.
Today the Rothschild’s control a far-flung financial empire, which includes majority stakes in most world central banks. The Edmond de Rothschild clan owns the Banque Privee SA in Lugano, Switzerland and the Rothschild Bank AG of Zurich. The family of Jacob Lord Rothschild owns the powerful Rothschild Italia in Milan. They are members of the exclusive Club of the Isles, which provides capital for George Soros’ Quantum Fund NV, which made a killing in 1998-1999 destroying the currencies of Thailand, Indonesia and Russia. Soros was a major shareholder at Harken Energy.
Quantum NV handles $11-14 billion in assets and operates from the Dutch island of Curacao, in the shadow of massive Royal Dutch/Shell and Exxon Mobil refineries. Curacao was recently cited by an OECD Task Force on Money Laundering as a major drug money laundering nation. The Club of Isles group which funds Quantum is led by the Rothschilds and includes Queen Elizabeth II and other wealthy European aristocrats and Black Nobility. Fugitive Swiss financier and Mossad cutout Marc Rich, whose business interests were recently taken over by the Russian mafia Alfa Group, is also part of the Soros network. [849]
Ties to drug money are nothing new to the Rothschilds. N. M. Rothschild & Sons was at the epicenter of the BCCI scandal, but escaped the limelight when a warehouse full of documents conveniently burned to the ground around the time Rothschild-controlled Bank of England shut BCCI down. Perhaps the largest repository for Rothschild wealth today is Rothschilds Continuation Holdings AG- a secretive Swiss-based bank holding company. By the late 1990s scions of the Rothschild global empire were Barons Guy and Elie de Rothschild in France and Lord Jacob and Sir Evelyn Rothschild in Britain. [850] Evelyn is chairman of the Economist.

Then the great Empire of the Antichrist will begin where once was Attila's empire and the new Xerxes will descend with great and countless numbers, so that the coming of the Holy Ghost, proceeding from the 48th degree, will make a transmigration, chasing out the abomination of the Christian Church, and whose reign will be for a time and to the end of time.
-Nostradamus
Chasing out the human traffickers in the churches
This renewed Triumvirate will last for seven years, and the renown of this sect will extend around the world. The sacrifice of the hole and immaculate Wafer will be sustained.
Then the Lords of "Aquilon" [the North], two in number, will be victorious over the Easterners, and so great a noise and bellicose tumult will they make amongst them that all the East will tremble in terror of these brothers, yet not brothers, of "Aquilon" [the North].
-Nostradamus
Then will commence a persecution of the Churches the like of which was never seen. Meanwhile, such a plague will arise that more than two thirds of the world will be removed. One will be unable to ascertain the true owners of fields and houses, and weeds growing in the streets of cities will rise higher than the knees. For the clergy there will be but utter desolation. The warlords will usurp what is returned from the City of the Sun, from Malta and the Isles of Hyhres. The great chain of the port which wakes its name from the marine ox will be opened.

@Jaymastia your beliefs are your own, but the truth is the truth.

You're going to lose.
( ｀Å´) this is the artistic proof that the universe was created. When you paint a shadow its the opposite color of the object that made the shadow. Nobody knew what the opposite color of white is so the artists avoided painting white on white. The opposite color of white is baby blue and baby pink. The first artist to figure it out was Norman Rockwell. I was the second artist to figure it out. I saw it in the corner of a white room. The lighting was perfect to see it.
Okay I mean no disrespect to anyone so please don't take it that way or wrong or rude or anything i do believe in our universe and other things but I do not believe this Bible I do not believe someone who loves us so much and we're his what throws into a fiery hill for eternityI feel when you sit here and say this wrestling he's wrestling as in sexual predator with children and men women animalsI feelIt's almost cultishIt's cold It's a cold because the the Bible's alive because of the man-made part of it and how they've keptthe truth from usand filled in here and thereAm I going crazy or is anybody else feel that way I justI don't know I feelAt ease and more understanding andstuff when I goand domeditations andprayer to the universe like I I just this Bible never in my life did I ever believe in it I've always had questions and they hated me Mary was not a virgin if Mary was a virgin there be more virgins drop in babies out there who usGod was too a drunk.. And then his brother being pushed down and being Lucifer in hell he forgives everyone though I thought. Once again not trying to offend or disrespect anything I just been reading a lot on all these books and that and the ones that are coming that I'm reading and doing make more sense of what's truly happened happening or about to oh and then that the churches even if it's it's in the Bible talking about spirits and all that it justThey don't want to believe it No that's not that's not what that means What do you mean that's not what it means That's what I means Ephesians what the hellOkay so I was justLetting loose I guess for a minute I'm sorryoverload brain I guess. And if anyone can help me out with this help me understand this cuz I feel I truly feel my heart that that Bible is not right and it's evil and I feel like we're or a praising and praying to and worshiping someone that's not the right one
Quick and easy.. The bible teaches you how to live a good spiritual life, and create good fruits of the spirit, because there IS bad out there, in both the physical and heavenly realms.. And you DO have the knowledge of both good and evil, but how do you tame it? For the heart is deceptive, and wants what it wants, it's an idol factory in your mind, and the bible teaches us to be different, to truly love all of our brothers and sisters, to not get mad at each other and lift each other up because you can be like a viper serpent and speak death to someone or you can speak life to them. what will it be? Will you do things for your own sake or for others sake. Anything that does not produce good fruit, withers and dies and is chopped off as a branch and thrown into the outer darkness, where the other wicked fruit, thorns, naysayers, murders, thieves, unbelievers, go, because they wouldn't accept the TRUE LOVE of God and the knowledge of who we are through Jesus Christ. Its not about God wanting to throw everyone into hell my sister. People put themselves there through their own devices because we're made in his image, yet don't know how to control it. This is why Sin exists, this is Why Jesus came, to save us from ourselves. He will separate the wheat from the chaff. You just need to trust him, love him above all things and love one another. The bible teaches all of this, and that Jesus is the tree of LIFE, follow his ways and his words. You'll be rich forever.
We are all born in sin
The world we live in is ran by sin / satan , hence why so many bad things, people happen. It’s inevitable for us not to sin in some way shape or form.
We have body, soul, spirit
Flesh is body, soul consists of our emotions, willpower, mind (conscious), spirit is what helps us navigate our soul.
Flesh is weak, it’s our body it’s not eternal. Since we have a soul and are born of sin we have the choice of doing “right or wrong”
God is aware of this, but wants to save us from a life of sin. He sent Jesus to die for our sins. When Jesus died, our sins died with it and we were forgiven and extended grace to be saved. By accepting salvation, having faith and repenting of our sins. But Jesus already died for our sins right? Yes, and when he died he sent the Holy Spirit to help us to come into agreement with his Salvation. Some people get there, some people never will , others don’t want to. Just as satan wanted to be God. There’s people wanting to be their own Gods. But God has chosen who hearts (soul) would be willing to seek Him, and when we seek we find him , and he begins to do a work in us. The Bible isn’t just parables or stories, God will have speak directly to you through the Holy Spirt. The Bible are the instructions, The Holy Spirit is the teacher/ corrector/ guider/ counsel.
God wants us to allow his spirit to lead us vs our soul that’s chooses based on feelings. When we make the wrong choices it alters our soul (willpower,emotions, mind) when our soul is altered , the enemy attacks it because it is weak, and we lack the understanding , knowledge that GOD has to fight the battle. Proverbs 3:5-6 , It’s an intimate and personal relationship that we have to build by continuing in our seek, praying, reading Bible, and slowly allowing the Holy Spirit to restore us.
We are already freed from sin, and we are forgiven for all of them! That’s why God knows we will sin again, but since we know we are already forgiven we must choose to live through the Holy Spirit, who guides us away from sin.
Imagine an abused dog who’s been caged (humans in sin) but the rescue mission comes to save him and opens the cage (Jesus dying, forgiving us, sending the Holy Spirit to rescue us)
But when they open the cage for the dog, he doesn’t come out. He’s been traumatized, he can’t trust, and he stays in the cage even though he’s free now ( Sin disrupts our soul and spirit causing us to not realize that we are free) The animal rescues shows the dog small signs over time to show that he can trust them (Holy spirit convicts us, we start to question things, seeking, searching in the Bible) and over time the dog realizes that he can trust them although at one point he had an understanding that people hurt me, he was restored and had an honest understanding from the actions of the rescuers, and if someone new comes along he will look to them to see if it’s okay (We come into agreement with Gods salvation, we allow the Holy Spirit to lead, and before making choices from our own minds, we look to the Holy Spirit bc we know that we can trust him, above our own understanding) …
If we don’t allow the Holy Spirit to lead, we will live the life that was destined through sin before Jesus died for them.
But we have a new life through God, that is good, and prosperous
