JESUS: MUCH "PLANTING." LITTLE "CULTIVATING."

Jesus didn't spend much time in one place, or chasing after folks.

Followers Jesus did spend repeated and considerable time with, but never chasing after followers / disciples I suspect.

Let's do the same.

MUCH "PLANTING."

LITTLE "CULTIVATING."

Why little time "cultivating?" Jesus said it has to do with "many are called, but few are chosen."

HELL = SEPARATION FROM LOVE / LIFE / TRUTH.

I testify that I would die if I returned to my life of Selfishness / Neglect / Indifference / Separation from "the LEAST of these my family." It would be Hell.

I wish I had known this 30 years ago.

MY QUEST: WHAT WOULD HAVE SAVED ME

This site would have Saved me from 30 years of Hell, off of the Path.

Although I expect to spend much time with it, studying it, if I ever forget it, please return me to this site.

"Start, you love [everyone] so deeply," the Sister observed.

I testify:

1. Think of the person you most love in the world.
2. Feel how much that love means to you.
3. Each other person you learn to love that much will multiply your Joy / Love / Fulness by almost that much.

Unleashing "Lusting" is the solution to Greed / Mammon / Selfishness / Stuff / Superiority / Systems - Institutions / Pleasure / Hell.

Unleashing "Loving" is the solution to Life / Love / Truth / Soul / Solidarity / Serving / Joy / Heaven.

WWOFHUD: WHAT WOULD OUR FATHER HAVE US DO?

Jesus did not ask what "Jesus" would do. Although I think we should!

Jesus asked

"What would Our Father have us do?"

WE SHOULD TOO.

1. "Our Father in Heaven."
2. "Hallowed be your name."
3. "Thy Kingom [IS FUNDED]"
4. "[As] Your will [is] done on earth as it is in Heaven.
5. "Give us [all] this day our daily bread."
6. "Forgive us our [errors],"
7. "As we forgive [the errors of others.]
8. "LEAD US NOT INTO ["ME"...]" BUT
9. "DELIVER US [TO "WE;" MILITANT PEACEMAKING, BROTHERLINESS, HEAVEN]..."
10: For Thine is the "Kingdom," and the
11. "Power" and the
10. "Glory"

EVERYTHING ON THIS SITE IS ENCAPSULATED IN THIS POST AND THE ASSOCIATED LINKS ABOVE.

WHEN THIS PRAYER, PRAYED THIS WAY IS THE CENTER OF MY LIFE I AM ON THE PATH.

JESUS' PRAYER IS PERFECT.

"GIVE EVERYTHING AND FREE YOUR SPIRIT." Start Loving

Well, this is how it is.

For the first third of my life I took and almost never gave. It was Hell. Drowning in pleasure, starving for joy.

In the last half of my life I have given everything, as best I have known how, to others. Pleasure has been at an ever accelerating decrease. JOY ABOUNDS. PEACE ABOUNDS. HEAVEN.

"GIVE EVERYTHING AND
FREE YOUR SPIRIT."
Start Loving

Man is an intelligence
in servitude to his organs.

Aldous Huxley

For YOU it will be LUSTING or LOVING

For me too of course.

A switch is on OR off.

At any instant a PC is being used for Word OR Excel.

A piece of steel is a shovel OR a pitchfork.

For YOU it will be LUSTING or LOVING

"Start, having an impact?" AS MUCH AS I CAN.

What can make a father work harder, suffer more, risk more than Love for his child?

Love is the greatest taskmaster.

The question I most hear from the rare person that stops to talk as I march all day at the Sudan Embassy in DC is, "Are you having an impact?"

THE PRIMARY QUESTION

IN THE FACE OF EMERGENCY

IS NEVER -

"ARE YOU HAVING AN IMPACT?"

AS A SECONDARY QUESTION FOR

GUIDANCE / TARGETING THIS QUES. CAN HELP.

THE PRIMARY QUESTION

IN THE FACE OF EMERGENCY IS -

"IS THIS YOUR BEST CHANCE

TO ALLEVIATE THE EMERGENCY?"

WHAT ARE YOU ASKING YOURSELF?

SIN is ERROR. NOTHING LESS!

What do you mean by "nothing less" Start?

"Less" than "error" are - Guilt, "I know I should," I'll go to Hell if I don't..., it is Bad....

What?!?!!?!? These are LESS THAN "Error?!?!?!?"

Yes. I'll show you with an example that applies to me, but if you want you can imagine one that applies to you:

My biological father, who I worship(ed) as a man of great knowledge, wisdom, character and toughness was my driving teacher as a teen. He taught me to drive.

"KEEP BOTH HANDS ON THE WHEEL AT ALL TIMES," he commanded! Well, when he was in the car with me I sulkingly and cowardly obeyed. BUT, OH BOY, WHEN HE WAS NOT WITH ME, ONE HAND IS WHAT I TYPICALLY USED; EASIER, MORE RELAXED, MORE COOL!!!! I FELT GUILTY! I KNEW I SHOULD! I KNEW I WAS BEING BAD! But all these I could tolerate!

Then one dark, gray, rainy afternoon I found myself on a cattle-chute like, under construction stretch of highway. ERROR! Both hands went to the wheel!!!

I WAS UNWILLING TO PAY THE PRICE

OF WHAT THEN I COULD SEE WAS

ERROR - VIOLATING THE

GOOD WISDOM IMPARTED

BY MY FATHER.

!!!!!!!NO DOUBLE STANDARDS. EVER!!!!!!

Probably the entire contents of this site, everything I've learned, everything I believe Jesus and the other "Greats" learned and taught can be reduced to this:

NO DOUBLE STANDARDS. EVER.

Do unto others ALL
that you would have them do unto you

Love your brother as yourself

Love your enemy

As you do unto the least of these
MY FAMILY, you do unto me

ONE FATHER. EVERYONE IS
"IMMEDIATE FAMILY."
GET ON WITH IT.

UBUNTU:

An ancient African word meaning
"humanity to others";
and
"I AM WHAT I AM
BECAUSE OF WHO WE ALL ARE".

"A TIME TO KILL." BEHOLD SALVATION. "WE"

A Time to Kill (1996)

More recently I have written: LOVE is COURAGE is CONNECTION is TRUTH. (Please scan this post and then return here.)

See this movie. When you do you will see a cataclysmic scene toward the end where the afore mentioned Post is achieved / illustrated like a thunder clap. Brilliant. Blindingly divine. In the blink of an eye a group of people are transported before our eyes from Hell to Heaven. Salvation, what it is, how it happens, what it means all there to see in a the universe of five seconds or less.

Email me if what I am pointing you to is not clear. I'll explain what I am attempting to share.

"Start, I'm thinking you are 'Biblically crazy' "

This quote, above, from a nationally recognized journalist that is deeply disturbed / shaken / troubled / moved by my stand at the Sudan Embassy.

"Start, I'm thinking you are

'Biblically crazy' "

"LOVING" IS THE "SOLUTION" FOR THE HEART

Breathing is the solution
for the lungs.

Eating is the solution
for the stomach.

"LUSTING" IS THE "SOLUTION"
FOR THE FLESH

"LOVING" IS THE "SOLUTION"
FOR THE HEART
Jesus was dying to teach us simply this.

"LUSTING" IS THE "SOLUTION" FOR THE FLESH

Breathing is the solution
for the lungs.

Eating is the solution
for the stomach.

"LOVING" IS THE "SOLUTION"
FOR THE HEART

"LUSTING" IS THE "SOLUTION"
FOR THE FLESH

The Hell Jesus died to "Save" us from.

KNOWLEDGE HAS BECOME A NARCOTIC

In June one Sunday was Embassy "Open House" for the larger Embassies like Greece, Ireland....

The sidewalks were crowded with gawkers. My march with huge signs was virtually "invisible" to the walkers or line-standers just inches from me. One lady, obviously quite "educated" did notice me as one might notice a bush, and commented to her companion:

"Oh yes, Darfur. Horrible. I'm reading a book on it." It was evident from her comment that this "reading a book on it" would be the end of her engagement with Darfur. She would be fulfilled in every way with this act (non-act).

It should, of course, be the reverse.

Knowledge should be responsibility,
the spur to action.

But some terrible perversion has happened.
Now, Knowledge is License,
Exoneration, Dispensation.
I Know, therefore I have Acted.

Now we waste away, strung out on

books, radio and TV "news,"

OPIATE of the people.

The "Prodigal" father does NOT go after his son.

Ok, imagine, God forbid, that a world-wide plague of unimaginable viciousness is raging and ravaging the world. You are an unknown, uncredentialed researcher and have just developed a vaccination / cure. Do you feel superior? YOU FEEL OBLIGATED.

I feel obligated.

Jesus felt obligated. Yet, the Prodigal Father did not chase after his son. Jesus did not chase after the Rich Young Man.

Jesus can not have been careless in these points. Clearly he taught that we are to become the cure and to make it available.

BUT WE ARE NOT TO
CHASE AFTER THE PATIENTS,
AS THIS WILL PROLONG
THE PERIOD OF TIME
IT TAKES FOR THEM TO
"RECOGNIZE" AND SEEK
THE "CURE."

My biological father, a brilliant "cure" in his own right, knew and practiced this excruciating self-restraint. I am being forced by "failure" to try to learn and practice this wisdom.

What are you living for? It is your bottom line. Happy?

You are, you ARE living for SOMETHING(S). Right? Right.

Probably, so far it is some combination of:

• Safety
• Family "expectations"
• "Love"
• Pleasure / comfort....

What did Jesus "Live" for?

• The least of these his "family"
• You
• Me
• Heaven on earth

You and Jesus are
both Dying for something.
Are you happy with your choice?
Jesus was.

LOVE IS MEASURED BY HOW MUCH YOU HAVE LEFT

LOVE IS MEASURED
BY HOW MUCH
YOU HAVE LEFT

Any questions?

"Life is as good as the good that you spend it on." Start Loving

Hmmm. An almost perfect synopsis of all that I've learned:

"Life is as good as the good that you spend it on." Start Loving

I know of no great life in history or fiction that is in contridiction to this. Do you?

FLESH PEDDLING

You know, part of me very much does not like facing such realities as:

FLESH PEDDLING IS CENTRAL TO OUR MAINSTREAM ROLES WITHIN THIS CULTURE. WE SELL OUR CHILDREN INTO BONDAGE "FOR THEIR OWN GOOD."

But, it is the truth. God Save us.

Life is a process. Peace, a "state" is Death & Illusion

A rock has peace. Is that what we want?

'My Peace I leave with you, My Peace I give unto you.' Jesus[Jesus] came not to give the peace of the world which is only that we don't bother each other. [Jesus] came to give the Peace of heart which comes from loving - from doing good to others." Teresa of Calcutta

"Our Father ... Deliver us [ALL to PeaceMAKING]

I think this may be it!

Our Father...
Lead us not to "ME,"
But Deliver us [ALL to Militant PeaceMAKING]

Semantics? Wordsmithing?

We've got to get this right.
Global Salviation is at stake.

Massive Western Fetish for Health / Pulse is Sin

"Nothing is so tempting as evil in the guise of virtue," Dr. Martin Luther King.

Life, our greats throughout history are the opposite! We in our finest moments are the opposite! Not pulse!!! Not flesh!!! "WE!" From my Soul in Solidarity Serving!

Only Militant PeaceMAKING can eliminate Hate

Hmm. Dr. King was incorrect in saying, "Only love [can eliminate hate.]" It is not that easy. Maybe Dr. King meant Militant Loving, but we need to be specific. I'm trying to learn the words that are less likely to enable the HYPOCRISY that we are so tenacious in pursuing.

Only Militant PeaceMAKING can eliminate hate.

Only PeaceMAKING is Peace

'My Peace I leave with you, My Peace I give unto you.' Jesus

[Jesus] came not to give the peace of the world which is only that we don't bother each other. [Jesus] came to give the Peace of heart which comes from loving - from doing good to others." Teresa of Calcutta

Heaven is PeaceMAKING

'My Peace I leave with you, My Peace I give unto you.' Jesus

[Jesus] came not to give the peace of the world which is only that we don't bother each other. [Jesus] came to give the Peace of heart which comes from loving - from doing good to others." Teresa of Calcutta

"Right to Life" is usually a sin against Our Father - Spirit

Was Jesus focus "Pulse?"

Jesus focus was "Life," "Spirit!"

PEACEMAKERS MUST MAKE PEACEMAKERS

PeaceMakers make Peace, right? WRONG!!!!!!!!

PeaceMAKERS make PEACEMAKERS!!!! Think of:

• Gandhi
• King
• Jesus
• Teresa....

Note: Moneymakers do not make money! They build organizations or take other ACTION and money is the RESULT.

MONEY IS A RESULT. MoneyMAKING is the ACTION!

PEACE IS A RESULT. PeaceMAKING is the ACTION!

HYPOCRISY. Almost ALL OF US, all the time?

HYPOCRISY. This word has has little use for me in the last 30 years. It just has not registered, relative to myself, or relative to the being of others.

HYPOCRISY meant very much to me in my late teens! What happened??!?!

I lost my Vision.

Now, as I try to recapture that vision that I had as a youngster, I begin again to see that virtually all of us are consummate HYPOCRITES!

"Our Father... Deliver us [ALL to Heaven]..."

USCCB - NAB - John 14 "12 Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever believes in me will do the works that I do, and will do greater ones than these..."

"Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us to evil." I don't think this captures what Jesus was getting at.

"Lead us not into temptation..." is OK, however "Deliver us from evil..." SAYS THE SAME THING!

We need to know where Our Father wants us to lead ourselves and others. I think this is close:

"Our Father... Deliver us [ALL to Heaven]..."
