I been following you and watching you from a distance when you were NOT A CHRISTIAN. And this is the first video I saw pop up seeing that now you have ACCEPTED JESUS as LORD and SAVIOR. That makes made heart glad and my prayers have been answered. YOU ARE SAVED!!!! HALLELUYAH!!!! Welcome to the KINGDOM OF GOD brother.
The old man that was a Shepherd, that gave the prayer tassels to Matthew, was one of the shepherds that was present in the fields when the Angels came and told them that Jesus was born and they went to see Jesus at the stable in the pilot episode The Shepard. That's why he said "...I'm ready to meet my Maker...again."
I don’t know if the prayer tassels (tzit tzit) were explained during the livestream, but I found a wonderful explanation of it! Basically the prayer tassels were the final step of Mathew forgiving himself for what he had done to his people. The tzit tzit were a public declaration of being a practicing Jew, and he didn’t feel worthy to wear them after all he had done. Mary was helping Mathew to see that, more or less, he had been forgiven by everyone and he just needed to forgive himself. So, in a sense, putting the prayer tassels on was the last step for Mathew to fully leave his past behind him! Hope this helped😊💜
You are so right about changing your perspective from “why did this happen to me” to “this happened”. I needed that adjustment a few years ago. Thank you for sharing
There is a secondary miracle here as well: not only can the man hear and speak, he can also understand language! He would not have known spoken language if born deaf.
45:30 Others have probably already mentioned it but I'll mention it just in case. That's one of the same shepards that was there when Jesus was born. Hence, "I'm ready to meet my maker, again".
Love watching your reaction and your insight. I’ve cried with you and found myself talking back and forth to you 😂 you feel everything so deeply. You’re such a gift to the kingdom. God bless 🙏🏻
Thank you for your kind words brother... it's been hard these past few years to keep on shining. Now I see that "shining on my own light" is my best approach to facing the darkness enveloping today's world. Thank you once again for your compassion.
I feel that your message was for me. I am far more patient with so many people and considerate of others. When you said they can’t find that peace in themselves…that was so eye opening!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤ thank you for your obedience in sharing that!!!!
Couldn’t watch live, but I have a dove! I was driving to work at 2 am, there was a beautiful, large white dove in the middle of the road, at 2 am!!! It gently glided up in slow motion. I KNEW God was warning me of something. I was traveling at 60, so I slowed down to 20. No sooner than I did a huge buck was in the road. I unfortunately hit him, and when my truck hit him, my truck came to a complete stop, the back end felt like it came off the ground, but I did NOT flip and I had no injuries. That dove saved me that night. Thank you, Jesus
I believe people want to blame someone for the bad things... My daughter was born severely handicapped and I was upset, why did this happen shes just a tiny baby, it was not until later in life that God made me realize why she is my daughter. I have always believed in unconditional love, unfortunately thats not how I was raised. Then Destiny came along she was such a tiny baby with so many health issues but man what a fighter, she never left life get her down and even though she could not walk nor talk you could just see what she was thinking with her eyes. Anyway to make a long story short there has been alot of people who just left and never looked back and it hurt alot... But as time went on I realized that God had given me this most incredible gift I could of ever recieved in my life Destiny a child whom loved me unconditionally. It Does not matter if my hairs a mess or things are on my shirt or if I have acne lol she just loves me so I realized that God gave me the gift of unconditional love ❤❤❤❤❤.
Appreciate that you shared such insight about Jessus' need for John to stay back. "It has to be you" is really important because there are many of us in the family of God sometimes questions, "why me... what have I done / not done to deserve this." But (hope it is not a spoiler) all this truly reveals too in chapter 8 for, and a lot you said has ties to what is going to happen to chapter 8 as well. I am so glad now that you have chosen to follow Jesus all the way. When I first saw your channel before the pandemic, I know we were all praying for you all the way! So much has happened during the pandemic and after the pandemic, but I am so glad you are still strong in this journey! This race that will bring us closer and closer to God. Regarding secular songs. I actually (before Christ) loved all the songs of all kinds; but since became a worshipper, lyrics became sensitive to me, because other than the music / melody, the lyrics play a very crucial part to bring the song to life , towards darkness or towards light. That is why a lot of Christians refused to listen to secular songs. Especially of recent years. They are nothing but pointing "it is good to be in the darkness", promoting violence, unsanctified life and self inflicting pain. I look forward that when you choose secular songs, you can share (even the dark ones) the dangers of both music + lyrics that can stir one soul to either direction, especially how we can teach our next generation to discern what sort of songs to listen.
Wow this is so on point for me! Really been going through some things that are really rough. I know there is things I can't do where God can do all things. You two are expecting Ezekiel on March 17th. Wish you guys the best!! So enjoy all this talk!! Tina Bless you!💕👏❤️🤗🙏
Love your RUclips channel. God Bless you and your lovely wife. Thanks for doing this. Looking forward to seeing more things from you as God directs. Watching from small town Northern Ontario in Canada. 🙏
Years ago, my friend and co-worker’s 19 year old son was murdered. When we were talking, my friend was saying how much she wanted them to find the guilty party because she wanted to know why. And I told her that I pray for that, and that she deserved to know. AND, she needed to realize that when she got that answer, it was not going to possibly be anything that she would agree with. So, why really doesn’t matter.
I've been watching your reactions since episode 1, it's the first time I'm crying at the 'it must be you' reaction! And yes, keep talking, your every opinion is pure and comforting! ❤From 🇭🇷
Thank you for sharing!! I just watched this again. I SO WISH someone would have shared “this happened” with me back in 1968!! It could have saved me a LOT of pain!! Thank you for sharing this with us now!! You’ll NEVER KNOW how many you’ve helped with sharing it today & every time this is watched!! God Bless you!!!!
You are making a difference, thank you for being transparent and sharing your stories about your life and your perspective of God's goodness. What a good mindset you shared with your daughter. "This happened." God is surely using you and we're all grateful for it brother.
I almost fast forwarded through 1:22 because I felt that the message didn't fully apply to me but I didn't because it really seemed like you really were seeing me (you are good, lol). You brought me to tears of joy. Reminding me of what I knew but needed to be reminded of. Like a dove! God bless you!
Hi Leonardo 😊ove your comments and Erica's bump ,guess the baby's arrived and doing well congrats with everything. God bless you all Love marguerite at Sri Lanka at present. Love the show chosen 🙏 ❤🙏love our Jesus ❤🙏❤🙏
Wow Leo, that message you said about king people. It really touches me. Thank you so much. You can't know all that without being one yourself or having one of these people really close to you. I am truly moved by your message. Thank you for adressing this in a so-personnal way 🙏✨❤️
I lost my faith for a long time. My dove was my deployment. While I was gone my mother was diagnosed with brain cancer and one of my grandfathers passed and to top it all off I saw and participated in combat. I felt him call me back when I was in a rough place through this show. He did not turn his face from me and I know that through Christ there will one day be peace
The rich man asked the people he wanted to come but when they refused he told his servants to go ask others. After they came there was still room so he then told his servants to go into highways and byways and invite other so his house would be full. I'll explain it like this ok? When you were a kid and was choosing your team to play ball. You picked what you felt was the best player, after that you would settle for second best but when you didn't have enough players for you team and only ones left were the scrub you pick them but they wasn't your first choice. It's like your the last one to be picked. You were leftovers I hope that helped to explain it a little.
The man who came to admit that he had bought up his family’s tax debt was one of the shepherds in the first nativity movie Dallas did to start off this wonderful series.
I want you to know you had me in tears when you talked about sometimes it has to be you. I am going to try to see it from here on out as God's assignment. It is so hard to be kind and patient even while being trampled on and lately my patience is gone. I am tired, but trying to keep up the fight.
Angela The Strong! Everyone you come in contact with is meant to experience God’s love, kindness and patience through you! They wouldn’t be able to touch it otherwise! THAT… is your assignment. Like a charging station for those who are worn out by life. BUT… remember that even chargers need charging. Stay close to God and let His Great Spirit charge you!
@@LeonardoTorresMusic Thank you so much for pointing out the importance of shifting from "why did this happen " to "this happened ". I really needed to hear that. Twenty years ago my only son/child was diagnosed with a neurological disorder that regressed his development when he was about 6 months old. With all the testing that was done, there has not been a conclusive reason for the condition. I have been practically obsessed with finding out why and feeling depressed over it. I see that I need to shift my focus to move forward and make the best of this situation, in whatever way God has in store for us. Please keep us in your prayers 🙏🏽
NC Rob The Wise! Be still and know. Your wisdom comes from God and knowing Him gives you access to His infinite wisdom. With a calm spirit pray for His wise Spirit to show you why you suffer in such a unique way. Most importantly, pray that He gives the same wording and peace for others who may be suffering in the same way. Everyone on this channel will pray for you.
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. Isaiah 55:8-9 NIV
I think Jesus chose John to be with Simon, to humble John. At first, John just saw Simon as being annoying and a nuisance. His demeanor changed when he understood what Simon was going through. I agree that we have to get to the point that bad things happen. But God is not afraid of our why’s? It’s important for us to give him our why’s along with our cries.
You are speaking of my life. I turn to Jesus for strength . I am alone with Jesus in this evil world. It’s okay. I know all of this will eventually even out. I look forward to that day. God bless you. You sang my song…,since birth. Many blessings and thank you.🕊️🕊️
All creation is groaning for the sons and daughters of God to be revealed. The world expresses it need to be whole as it feels incomplete, but as Mary says, God steps in and reveals himself to those who need him.
Romans chapter 8v28 might be the verse you are looking for. He works everything out for our good. But, it's ok for us to tell Jesus how we feel. Episode 8 helps with answering why we go through head things. And our job is to focus on Him, not the circumstances.
Re: John... I sort of had a different interpretation of his attitude towards Jesus' order. I mean, you guys were right about what is the right way to answer to His commands, however we all have to admit sometimes they aren't easy at all. Sometimes they go directly against what we want to do, or what we think we are. However, the loyal follower will do what was asked regardless. In that sense, John's attitude reminded me of the parable of the two sons - one that Jesus teaches on episode 8 (if I'm not mistaken). It talks about how a father orders their two sons to do something, one happily says "i'll do it" but doesn't do it, the other says "i won't do it", but he regrets and does it. Now, despite the second one having a bad attitude, he was the one who was obedient, not the first one. So this reminds me of John here especially when he says" what do you think i should say to [Jesus], no?" and Simon replies that....... yes in fact he could have said no. But John didn't say no, despite his own flesh and his own will, because he listens to Jesus FIRST. And it's interesting because, how it happens to us in life sometimes, we have a terrible atitude (which she shouldn't, but we are sinners afterall) but once we do what Jesus tell us, later we realize that (as always) He was right and we were wrong.
I feel that God is using this story and their writers to fill in the blanks. Just as God used men to write the Bible. Now he is using this movie and it's writers to touch us once again in our time!❤ Glory be to God in our time! Showing us that Jesus chose imperfect men and the trials they faced, that we can do it too! JOHN used tough love on SIMON, that's what he needed!
Did you ever find out why the old man talking to Matthew said he was ready to meet his maker again? If not, watch the after show on the app and you'll know why he said that. 😇😇😇
Godfather`s heart is unique love ... each of us is a part of it ... each unique and not replaceable ... living, as He created us, in his love, is like all those parts showing Godfather`s loving light brightly ... if it is not wanted or is refused, those are the parts with no light, living in the dark ... seems like those were all lost ... how would it looks like, if we all would accept his loving light?! ...
Even big James, who is still working on some of his previous biases, has no problem with Tamar. In fact he seemed a little annoyed that she thought they might. It's easy when you spend a lot of time with someone to forget their Origins where that they actually are different than you. For a thousand years there has been a divide between the Jews and the Gentiles. Now Jesus is asking them to forget all that. I'm sure this is going to be a little bit difficult for them to embrace right off the bat. But I think the next episode will really help with that.
Sometimes when we face hardships we wonder why GOD allows bad things to happen there is a verse that says the rain falls on the just and the unjust alike. We sometimes feel that because we are Christians that we somehow have this safety bubble when that's just not true
1:38:29 I learned from God that no man, be they righteous or unrighteous, is above and beyond tragedy. For the rain storms fall on both the just and the unjust alike. Remember Job's words. _"The Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord." Remember David's actions when his child died._ 2nd Samuel Chapter 12 verse 21 & 22 _David’s servants asked him, “Why are you doing this? When the baby was alive, you cried and refused to eat. But when the baby died you got up and ate food.” David said, “While the baby was still living, I cried and refused to eat because I thought, ‘Who knows? Maybe the Lord will feel sorry for me and let the baby live.’ 23 But now the baby is dead, so why should I refuse to eat? Can I bring the baby back to life? No. Some day I will go to him, but he cannot come back to me.”_ We can't avoid suffering at points in this current life. But praise be to God that we will be rewarded for our many sufferings. One day we will never suffer again.
Prayer táseles those came from when Moses took them out of Egypt and those are called the first exile the first time they where free. He wanted Mathew to keep them so he can remember God and faith and I can only imagine how much he would get for those prayer tastels would cost a lot of money. And longing to be whole , God is everything that’s why she said that because he is the great I Am 😊
I wanted to give a different perspective on the parable of the banquet. The master of the house represents God the Father and his guests were the Jewish people (his people). The story is about how they rejected the message of Jesus. The 2nd part of the parable is the mission Jesus left to his disciples (and ultimately us) to spread the invitation of Good News to gentiles. For a jew, the parable is meant to honor they're role as the chosen people while also warning them to not reject the invitation into the kingdom. The highways and hedges are to tell gentiles, though they are not the Chosen people, they are invited to come to the banquet as fully welcomed guests (aka full citizens of the kingdom). Once you accept the invite you are no longer what you were but guests to the banquet
The story with the king and everyone is invited , what they don’t realize is that they all listening to him and eating together, they don’t realize the feast is happening right there . They are together and Jesus is king and they are eating bread and fish from Heaven together so the prophecy is happening and they don’t realize it ❤
6:50- I have an inkling that is Bathsheba next to David. 9:33- That poor little boy, I feel bad he was exposed to that. 24:21- That wasn't backhanded, you know women weren't allowed to learn how to read or write at that time. 29:21- Oh James, that doesn't make it any better. 44:23- Only problem is Jacob, Rachel and Leah were cousins.🤢🤮 Same as Isaac and Rebekah. Abraham and Sarah too.🤢🤮 What were they thinking screwing their damn relatives?! 46:08- I thought that was disrespectful to dishonor Rachel's wishes to change Benjamin's name like that. 47:14- Until Jesus changed that with the crucifixion. 50:13- He's talking about his faith. He wanted Matthew to have it and he does the tassels are a symbol. 55:50- God sends different messagers for each person, for Mary Magdalene it was that dove, Matthew the old man to come back to God. 1:03:02- Like Isaac and Ishmael. 1:03:22- That's a Abraham, Sarah and Hagar situation there. I really hate polygamy and polyamory. 1:39:23- Peter thinks Jesus owes him and that's not how it works. 1:50:23- Remember when God tested Abraham's faith by telling him to sacrifice Isaac? Or letting Job go through bad things to strengthen his faith? When we go through trials, God is testing us like Abraham to make sure our faith is genuine. Peter and Eden having a miscarriage is their test.
Think of it this way. Jesus submitted to the Father when he gave himself to die on the cross for our sins. Just as the wife is to submit to the husband as the headship in marriage, just as we are to submit to one another our lives, to serve God. It’s ORDER not value. The husband does not have more value than the wife, they are equal in value. The Father doesn’t have more value than the Son, they are equal in value. Jesus was in the beginning with the Father when creation began. Without God’s order, we have chaos.
Hey Leo just so you know your reaction to season 3 episodesb7 and 8 are not in the season 3 Playlist. Just thought you might want to know for those who may want to refresh and rewatch with you. Blessings.
I been following you and watching you from a distance when you were NOT A CHRISTIAN. And this is the first video I saw pop up seeing that now you have ACCEPTED JESUS as LORD and SAVIOR. That makes made heart glad and my prayers have been answered. YOU ARE SAVED!!!! HALLELUYAH!!!! Welcome to the KINGDOM OF GOD brother.
Same here… I’ve been cheering for him , thank God he’s accepted Jesus ❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
Be careful, salvation is a lifelong journey and Paul encourages us to work it out in fear and trembling.
@@Powerranger-le4up it is a long journey but it starts with accepting Jesus Christ as your lord and savior. That’s how Paul started right 😉🙏🏻
@@Powerranger-le4upSalvation is an eternal, sealed gift, not a temporary breakable gift.
Please don’t stop talking. Your words are Spirit filled and I have learned much from them.
You bring so much more to the table than you think.

That's why he said "...I'm ready to meet my Maker...again."
Oh! I never thought of that. That's a clever detail!
Absolutely cannot wait to see your reaction to episode 8!!! It's gonna blow your mind!
Totally! 💖
I can’t wait either!! I just Pray I’m able to see it live & not hours or days later!!!!
I don’t know if the prayer tassels (tzit tzit) were explained during the livestream, but I found a wonderful explanation of it!
Basically the prayer tassels were the final step of Mathew forgiving himself for what he had done to his people. The tzit tzit were a public declaration of being a practicing Jew, and he didn’t feel worthy to wear them after all he had done. Mary was helping Mathew to see that, more or less, he had been forgiven by everyone and he just needed to forgive himself. So, in a sense, putting the prayer tassels on was the last step for Mathew to fully leave his past behind him! Hope this helped😊💜
If you watch the group called the Grafted then they will explain it to you about that subject because they do reactions to the chosen as well
You are so right about changing your perspective from “why did this happen to me” to “this happened”.
I needed that adjustment a few years ago. Thank you for sharing
I love so much that you now use the label "former non-Christian"!!!
There is a secondary miracle here as well: not only can the man hear and speak, he can also understand language! He would not have known spoken language if born deaf.
My cousin was born deaf. Learning to read is very difficult if you can’t “sound it out.”
45:30 Others have probably already mentioned it but I'll mention it just in case. That's one of the same shepards that was there when Jesus was born. Hence, "I'm ready to meet my maker, again".
Episode 8 man, episode 8... the best episode of the series so far. Can't wait!!!
“It has to be you” thanks Leonardo….needed to hear this 😢😘😘😘

Unchanged from drugs & alcohol and live in confidence this will remain through eternity.
I'm so glad your Christian music reactions have brought you to the lord.
God wants a Familia!! He wants us!! All of us!!
Simon's pain is one of the reasons for this trip. Others are healing, reaching the ones who were fighting each other, sowing seeds. I think.
I lost my faith for a long time. My dove was my deployment.

I don’t know if you have seen The Shepherd yet, but you need to watch it!! It’s what started The Chosen!!
The Messengers too.
Thank you, Leonardo
He asked John to stay behind bc Jesus had a specific task for him like writing the book of Revelation
Keep up the good work for Jesus!!
Love to hear your comments

Couldn’t be with you live, but watching now. My 333 or dove is the word “home”
I think Jesus chose John to be with Simon, to humble John. At first, John just saw Simon as being annoying and a nuisance. His demeanor changed when he understood what Simon was going through. I agree that we have to get to the point that bad things happen. But God is not afraid of our why’s? It’s important for us to give him our why’s along with our cries.
Well said Leonardo!
Shalom shalom to everyone ❤❤❤
You are speaking of my life. I turn to Jesus for strength . I am alone with Jesus in this evil world. It’s okay. I know all of this will eventually even out. I look forward to that day. God bless you. You sang my song…,since birth. Many blessings and thank you.🕊️🕊️
Amen!!!!!
Good morning! Usually see you at night.
All creation is groaning for the sons and daughters of God to be revealed. The world expresses it need to be whole as it feels incomplete, but as Mary says, God steps in and reveals himself to those who need him.
Romans chapter 8v28 might be the verse you are looking for. He works everything out for our good. But, it's ok for us to tell Jesus how we feel. Episode 8 helps with answering why we go through head things. And our job is to focus on Him, not the circumstances.
Yes he chose us
💛💛💛
Sometimes God creates something beautiful from suffering
It is called a sense of “entitlement”. Simon feels that Jesus owes him
Couldn't have said it better 👍, God Is no respecter of persons
Re: John... I sort of had a different interpretation of his attitude towards Jesus' order. I mean, you guys were right about what is the right way to answer to His commands, however we all have to admit sometimes they aren't easy at all. Sometimes they go directly against what we want to do, or what we think we are. However, the loyal follower will do what was asked regardless.
In that sense, John's attitude reminded me of the parable of the two sons - one that Jesus teaches on episode 8 (if I'm not mistaken). It talks about how a father orders their two sons to do something, one happily says "i'll do it" but doesn't do it, the other says "i won't do it", but he regrets and does it. Now, despite the second one having a bad attitude, he was the one who was obedient, not the first one. So this reminds me of John here especially when he says" what do you think i should say to [Jesus], no?" and Simon replies that....... yes in fact he could have said no. But John didn't say no, despite his own flesh and his own will, because he listens to Jesus FIRST.
And it's interesting because, how it happens to us in life sometimes, we have a terrible atitude (which she shouldn't, but we are sinners afterall) but once we do what Jesus tell us, later we realize that (as always) He was right and we were wrong.
Have you ever listened to Paul Wibur ? Especially his early concerts such as Shalom Jerusalem or Jerusalem Arise .
Pray and praise God bless ❤️🙏😊💃
This show is my dove.
I had 3:33 on my clock and look at John 3:3 God has a message for you
Here from Utah😊
I feel that God is using this story and their writers to fill in the blanks. Just as God used men to write the Bible. Now he is using this movie and it's writers to touch us once again in our time!❤ Glory be to God in our time! Showing us that Jesus chose imperfect men and the trials they faced, that we can do it too! JOHN used tough love on SIMON, that's what he needed!
Your inputs are good bro ..the Steps are ordered by the Lord.. Simmons questioning part
Did you ever find out why the old man talking to Matthew said he was ready to meet his maker again? If not, watch the after show on the app and you'll know why he said that. 😇😇😇
Was he Simeon?
@@priscillajimenez27 It was one of the shepherds from Jesus' birth.
@@sharonbizriguez oh snap you're right!
“I’m ready to meet my maker. Again.”
This story is a great example of what's going on in today's world between political sides
IGR FROM PHILIPPINES
Tussels (the 4 strings that the old man gave to Matthew) on jewish men represented the four books of the law in the bible
Godfather`s heart is unique love ... each of us is a part of it ... each unique and not replaceable ... living, as He created us, in his love, is like all those parts showing Godfather`s loving light brightly ... if it is not wanted or is refused, those are the parts with no light, living in the dark ... seems like those were all lost ... how would it looks like, if we all would accept his loving light?! ...
Sadly We're still divided 🙏
Even big James, who is still working on some of his previous biases, has no problem with Tamar. In fact he seemed a little annoyed that she thought they might. It's easy when you spend a lot of time with someone to forget their Origins where that they actually are different than you. For a thousand years there has been a divide between the Jews and the Gentiles. Now Jesus is asking them to forget all that. I'm sure this is going to be a little bit difficult for them to embrace right off the bat. But I think the next episode will really help with that.
So when we say what we will do today or tomorrow we should always say "God willing" his will be done
Sometimes when we face hardships we wonder why GOD allows bad things to happen there is a verse that says the rain falls on the just and the unjust alike. We sometimes feel that because we are Christians that we somehow have this safety bubble when that's just not true
1:38:29 I learned from God that no man, be they righteous or unrighteous, is above and beyond tragedy. For the rain storms fall on both the just and the unjust alike. Remember Job's words. _"The Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord." Remember David's actions when his child died._
2nd Samuel Chapter 12 verse 21 & 22
_David’s servants asked him, “Why are you doing this? When the baby was alive, you cried and refused to eat. But when the baby died you got up and ate food.” David said, “While the baby was still living, I cried and refused to eat because I thought, ‘Who knows? Maybe the Lord will feel sorry for me and let the baby live.’ 23 But now the baby is dead, so why should I refuse to eat? Can I bring the baby back to life? No. Some day I will go to him, but he cannot come back to me.”_
We can't avoid suffering at points in this current life. But praise be to God that we will be rewarded for our many sufferings. One day we will never suffer again.
Proverbs 3:5 NKJV
[5] Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding;
💜💜💜
The reference to the world longing to be whole can be seen in Romans 8:18 - 22
Andy Williams had a lovely version f Little Drummer Boy.
😅this is his jam
Prayer táseles those came from when Moses took them out of Egypt and those are called the first exile the first time they where free. He wanted Mathew to keep them so he can remember God and faith and I can only imagine how much he would get for those prayer tastels would cost a lot of money. And longing to be whole , God is everything that’s why she said that because he is the great I Am 😊

I wanted to give a different perspective on the parable of the banquet. The master of the house represents God the Father and his guests were the Jewish people (his people). The story is about how they rejected the message of Jesus. The 2nd part of the parable is the mission Jesus left to his disciples (and ultimately us) to spread the invitation of Good News to gentiles. For a jew, the parable is meant to honor they're role as the chosen people while also warning them to not reject the invitation into the kingdom. The highways and hedges are to tell gentiles, though they are not the Chosen people, they are invited to come to the banquet as fully welcomed guests (aka full citizens of the kingdom). Once you accept the invite you are no longer what you were but guests to the banquet
The story with the king and everyone is invited , what they don’t realize is that they all listening to him and eating together, they don’t realize the feast is happening right there . They are together and Jesus is king and they are eating bread and fish from Heaven together so the prophecy is happening and they don’t realize it ❤
🕺 iguess
1:03:00 what are they talking about there?
6:50- I have an inkling that is Bathsheba next to David.
9:33- That poor little boy, I feel bad he was exposed to that.
24:21- That wasn't backhanded, you know women weren't allowed to learn how to read or write at that time.
29:21- Oh James, that doesn't make it any better.
44:23- Only problem is Jacob, Rachel and Leah were cousins.🤢🤮 Same as Isaac and Rebekah. Abraham and Sarah too.🤢🤮 What were they thinking screwing their damn relatives?!
46:08- I thought that was disrespectful to dishonor Rachel's wishes to change Benjamin's name like that.
47:14- Until Jesus changed that with the crucifixion.
50:13- He's talking about his faith. He wanted Matthew to have it and he does the tassels are a symbol.
55:50- God sends different messagers for each person, for Mary Magdalene it was that dove, Matthew the old man to come back to God.
1:03:02- Like Isaac and Ishmael.
1:03:22- That's a Abraham, Sarah and Hagar situation there. I really hate polygamy and polyamory.
1:39:23- Peter thinks Jesus owes him and that's not how it works.
1:50:23- Remember when God tested Abraham's faith by telling him to sacrifice Isaac? Or letting Job go through bad things to strengthen his faith? When we go through trials, God is testing us like Abraham to make sure our faith is genuine. Peter and Eden having a miscarriage is their test.
Think of it this way. Jesus submitted to the Father when he gave himself to die on the cross for our sins. Just as the wife is to submit to the husband as the headship in marriage, just as we are to submit to one another our lives, to serve God. It’s ORDER not value. The husband does not have more value than the wife, they are equal in value. The Father doesn’t have more value than the Son, they are equal in value. Jesus was in the beginning with the Father when creation began. Without God’s order, we have chaos.
