Short Lessons on Agapé: Same Teaching, Same Response

The prerequisite to resisting the political changes occurring today

Anyone who has read any of my articles knows that I interpret the teachings of Christ from a secular viewpoint, hoping not to alienate Christians at the same time. Therefore, to a degree, the response Jesus got from people listening to his teachings should be similar to those I get—and since they are, the teaching may be the same.

For example, I am sure that if I wrote about being saved by faith alone, I would likely draw many positive responses as Jesus did. Or if somehow, symbolic or not, I could heal people physically or raise the dead physically, not likely, I would get the large response that he did. But in regards to the part of his teaching that I do teach, interpret, I, in fact, get a similar response.

After actually telling people—that unless they eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, they have no life in themselves—many just left him. I never use those words, but I interpret them as he expects us to and not take them literally. In my interpretation, they mean that we must realize that we are spirit and not these bodies, that we must stop worshipping them and worship Name in order to partake of His nature, which is agapé, unconditional love. Such love has no conditions at all, while we are not to be against ourselves. So while Name hates the image we all choose to have of ourselves as these bodies, He loves us, all of us, from the pedophile to the murderer, giving them a chance also to accept the same teaching “to eat Jesus’s flesh” so that they can change their behavior also.

So, many started ignoring me when I taught how to love pedophiles and murderers, believing that I was disrespecting their victims, but even more, because I teach to stop worshipping these bodies and wake up to being spirit embodied physically. So, I see no real chance of “spreading the message and getting better numbers”, unless I change the message. Can't do that. But there is a handful that at least open and view my articles, and I do get a handful of likes from them, while hardly anyone comments on my chat threads with over 700 subscribers. I am grateful though but also saddened that so many of us keep our love in tiny little circles while the misery of others increases.

The risks of speaking our mind or even attaching our name to a post with a like or comment are real, the reason I stay anonymous. So I am not seeking any of that. I love Democrats, Republicans and Independents equally, but I see the pressures on you all to stay spiritually blind and not come out publicly and say that you love each other, all while suffering inside.

The rising use of AI to enhance writing is one way to blind us. For when misused, it puts our focus on words rather than the subject to prevent us from envisioning the subject spiritually. This, then, is the simple spiritual message to us that Word taught, as I interpret it—

You are spirit with a body, and you need to experience the unconditional love you have as spirit, not for things but for others as spirit. Spirit sees and loves spirit unconditionally, without judging physical behavior but resisting bad behavior by first forgiving and being forgiven. Envision this spiritually as Word expects us to, so we do not stay blind.

Following that message is the prerequisite to resisting the political changes occurring today.
