Күн бұрын#WilliamPaulYoung #WPYoung #UnconventionalLeaders
Today we are connecting with the author of The Shack, William Paul Young. Although this show is mostly about creativity and making a living doing what you love, one of the deeper issues underlying all the internal work we have to do as ambitious creatives is addressing spiritual pain and how we view God. Paul’s work has really impacted my life and it’s an honor to get to share his message with you.
WHO IS WILLIAM PAUL YOUNG?
Wm Paul Young, author of The Shack, Cross Roads, Eve, The Shack Reflections and Cross Roads Reflections, and Lies We Believe About God, was born a Canadian and raised among a stone-age tribe by his missionary parents in the highlands of what was Netherlands New Guinea (now West Papua). He suffered great loss as a child and young adult, and now enjoys the “wastefulness of grace” with his growing family in the Pacific Northwest.
QUESTIONS ASKED:
How do we explore faith without ostracizing ourselves?
How do you know you’ve experienced the True God?
FROM TODAY’s EPISODE:
Moving past hurt by religion & lies we believe about God
Dealing with shame and the need to belong
Overcoming the addiction of certainty

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love (1 Cor. 13:13)

Why do other versions say 'hope' is the 'greatest'? The KJV Corinthians says 'Charity is not puffed up' though Christian charity is always puffed-up.

You’ll find out that when you venture out from the pack and think you’re all alone there is another community out there that will welcome you in; where you can be free and be true to yourself and still be loved and accepted. Is it easy? No. Is it worth it? 100%.

The real question should be, did you and I double check what he said to what the word of God says??? Nope? No I didn't think so. God said that you should use his word to check that which someone says..... You will find that there were many untruths told.

Christ is truly the end of religion, but He established a Church - His Body. This Church - in tbe Spirit, unanimously regarded "apokatastasis" as too at odds with the inspired text of Scripture and only belonging to the private speculative opinion (theolugomen) of (for example) Origen and Gregory of Nyssa. In Christ, our entire human nature is reconciled, healed, restored, but we - as persons (unique hypostasis) are not all already "in"... no, we are "potentially" all in but have to "actualise" our relational union with the Triune Life through new birth - by grace - through faith. ✌️💚🙏

Because this is a fallen world; God is by His holy nature, is effectively locked out; seeming not present. That said, he "snuck in" via Jesus, demonstrated a perfect sinless life; sacrificed himself for all of Creation; then snuck out again via the ascension; but left the Holy Spirit in His believers (the church). Religion (God attempted bribery) has always been a great power tool and business for the world. He allows the world to carry on for awhile; the church dispensation; to sanctify His believers by trial. His sanctified believers will be the leaders in the new world, but where the government will be upon His shoulders. All will be redeemed eventually after the refining fire. Every knee shall bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. Even enemy #1 will be humbled and redeemed, eventually. All will be overjoyed to serve and love the Lord from the lowest station as Christ served and Loved the Father from the lowest station, amen. Free will will ultimately choose salvation through Christ. All of creation. No more religion (attempted God bribery); only worship in the new heaven and the new earth where all of creation is redeemed. ALL of Creation, Amen. This is my feasible hope.

If Jesus represents God who wants to heal us, Jesus done so many miracles in the bible for people. Why doesn't God do miracles for us today? Why doesn't God want us today to be happy and healthy like he did in the bible? Why doesn't God move us out of situations that we have no control over?

@erichbrough6097 3 жыл бұрын
I think the answer(s) come (and this is reflected in 'Breakfast of Champions', Chapter 8 in The Shack) from our human freedom and the voluntary limits on Divine Power over our choices.That doesn't resolve all the problems you're raising, but I hope it's some kind of start. I personally would like a miracle wand waved over every grief or pain I currently experience, but it does seem that the road to wholeness is never as direct or simple as I prefer it to be.

First of all, Jesus came to heal. Not physical healing, although he did do that, but he came so that you would be healed from the sinner that you are, and I am. Jesus came fully God, fully man, came to save the lost...the LOST. Without Jesus you are lost. Jesus said. I am the way the truth and the life No one... That means NO ONE comes to the father except through Me. So, anything other than CHRIST does not work. That's why God said about the narrow gate in Matthew 7:13-14., Read for yourself!

@@erichbrough6097 What? A miracle wand? What? Did you know that Paul the apostle who wrote much of the new testament had an eye problem, so gross that he was told that others if the church would give him their eye, if they could? The healing is a spiritual healing. We live in a fallen and broken world. We have the hope of heaven- those that belong to Christ.

It is a beautifully written book that is opposed by pedantic, hateful, extremists who can't stand the thought of God being represented by a black female. Racist Trump lovers everywhere are bent out of shape. I bought the book to support the author as it's such a great read.
