He needs to speak less, and let the guest speak more. After all, it is an interview, right?

Chris West is a cool dude

Great stuff bro . 🎉🎉🎉

NFP says the purpose of the conjugal act is not biological, therefore the reason for the annulment is not definable.

¡Viva Cristo Rey ! Thank you, Keith and Awaken Catholic 🙏 📿 ✝️

Thank you Keith and Nick It was wonderful I will check out you facebook site

I love the middle ground approach yall took to this. It helped me understand why so people say it is fundamentally empowering on a deeper philosophical level. It’s all about the double standard against feminine sexuality which society has created. Therefore, this song is a caricature of how the script would be flipped if women were the dominant sexualizers of our culture. I never thought I would be saying I appreciate the philosophy of WAP 🤣

35:20 This is why it's best to get work from a company that allows employees to work remotely at home. Remote work also enables employees to invite Christ into their space.

No substance whatsoever... 😂

Finally, Pope Francis clarified that homosexuality is not a sin and gay couples can be blessed--- Simple--- Read the document.

Oh, he is the pope, no doubt. He just happens to be progressive, and not the good shepherd. This document is the missing piece of the puzzle, but now all comes into focus: the disconcerting comments in the plane, the unwillingness to clarify the dubia, the pachamama, the climate change stance, etc, etc, etc. We have to accept it: Pope Francis is the pope, and he is just not the good shepherd we would like to have. Not the first time in history that a bad apple has made it to the Petrine office.

Amen! 🙏

Christians are hilarious 😂 ! Just put up your baphomet and get on with it. We all know what you really are, stop pretending just come out with it.

The guy at the 39-minute mark contradicts himself by saying people are Catholic for the wrong reasons. He believes the Catholic Church is the true one but criticizes people who do not want to be Catholic as they are against the Pope's non-Biblical blessings of gay unions and transgender godparents, which conflicts with the Bible. Essentially, he questions people who refuses to follow the Pope's interpretation of the Bible's teachings and desire to follow Gods explicit interpretation of what He wrote in the Bible.

Unfortunately, too many of today's generation, their sexual orientation and their orientation based on their feelings is presented as their identity....

The Pope is Satan in disguise...

In a word..NO.. but it has negative effects.

God and religion is all BULLSHIT

I love your honesty

Excellent! Thanks for sharing.

I am so excited to see where Awaken will go and how many hearts/lifes will be enhanced.... Count me in!!! ❤️

Thank you, Sir. +JMJ+

I enjoyed this dicussion. I have been reading Karl Barth's ideas on sin as arrogance, sloth and falsehood. Thinking about arrogance (pride) and sloth today I started to see the overlap and interplay between the two. I wanted to explore that further, which is how I landed here. The view of pride and sloth as a denial of reality (falsehood / lack of prudence) is fasciniating and helpful. And, now that I've discovered your series I'll be checking out the other episodes :)

I just watched CHN interview with Matt Swain and just now subscribed. Waiting with great anticipation

Marriage originally was conceived as a permanent and joyful union. Since Adam and Eve lived before sin and were created to never die, marriage would have been a part of our permanent condition. Isn’t the point of the Resurrection and the new creation to restore all that has been corrupted by sin and death? The Bible tells us God will be restoring, not deleting us, redeemed and restored. It be a grotesque and unbiblical reversal of God’s original creative design if the redeemed in the resurrection lived without that intense joy in sexual complementarity in the New Heaven and New Earth.

Totally forgot Rob was a hippy surfer dude.

As some scholars have noted, the present tense verbs in Luke 20:34 indicate that both groups of sons are living in the present age, with the sons worthy of resurrection being identified by their marital restraint. Crispin Fletcher-Louis sums it up well: “ [the activities in] the present tense in Luke 20:34, should be attributed to the present life.” The versions of this scene recorded in Matthew and Mark are quite similar in detail and wording. Luke’s account, however, is significantly different and includes information not found in the other two. Just as he did in Lk. 16:8, Jesus contrasts “the sons of this age” with a righteous group of sons using the present tense. The “sons of this age” are marrying (gamousin) while the “sons of God” are not marrying (oute gamousin). The ones who are not marrying are not said to be living in the future age; they are only considered worthy to attain to the future age. This was no call to a life of celibacy. Some scholars generally take the unconventional view that Luke 20:34-36 is a call to celibacy in the present age. In making this argument, however, they do not take into account the negative connotation of “the sons of this age”. This identifies the group of sons who marry as wicked sons, signaling that a particular sort of marriage is inview. Jesus was by implication referring to forbidden marriages. Mark and Matthew omit Luke’s explicit moral contrast between righteous and wicked sons. But even if these shorter accounts are closer to Jesus’ original words, his meaning would have been clear to an audience steeped in the Hebrew scriptures. Contextually, his replies to the previous two challenges already pointed in the direction of Malachi’s eschatological prophecies about the corrupt priesthood. His audience could hardly have missed an allusion to Malachi in this third reply that mentions being “like angels” and is directed at the priests: the very name “Malachi” (mal’aki) means “my angel” and Mal. 2:7 describes the priest as the “angel of the Lord.” Further, forbidden marriages like those in Malachi were expected to continue to the time of the Messiah (Mal.3:1-5). With their long history of forbidden marriages, the Sadducees fit the bill to a tee. The expression “marrying and giving in marriage” is and on ther rare phrase found in only two New Testament scenes. Jesus used it in his reply to the Sadducees, and then again in the Olivet Discourse just a few hours later. In the latter case,he was describing the marrying and giving in marriage that would occur before his return: Matthew 24:37-39 - For as were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and they were unaware until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man This passage is commonly thought to contain a list of morally neutral activities. But Darrell Bock rightly challenges the common view: “[t]he verbs may seem neutral, but anyone familiar with the flood story would know that they connote moral corruption.” Indeed, upon closer inspection we will find that Jesus is actually warning his disciples not to participate in each pair of activities. We will consider each of these pairs in turn. Rarely is it noticed that Jesus explains the nature of this “eating and drinking” later in the Olivet Discourse. He warns the disciples that they must stay awake to be ready for his coming, because the “ wicked servant” who “eats and drinks with drunkards” will be surprised by his return and judged a hypocrite (vss. 48-50). A particular form of eating and drinking is clearly in view. The charge to “stay awake” is an eschatological metaphor with both spiritual and physical connotations. The disciples were to be spiritually sober, which involved physically refraining from the kind of eating and drinking that leads to debauchery and would render them unprepared for his return. Such “eating and drinking” is strongly condemned in the Old Testament. It included eating and drinking in the context of idolatrous rituals (e.g. Ex. 32:5-6, Hos. 2:11-13) or the over indulgence of food and alcohol (e.g. Deut. 21:20, Ecc. 10:16-17) that is often associated with other sins like violence and the neglect of the poor. One key example of this latter category occurs in Isaiah 5, a passage Jesus alluded to when denouncing the corrupt priests. These texts illustrate the sort of “eating and drinking” Jesus has in view. He identifies it as the behavior of the wicked at the time of the flood and later associates it with drunkenness, confirming it to be immoral in nature. This in turn implies that the next pair of verbs he mentions will also denote immoral behavior. Marrying and Giving in Marriage. Interpreters often neglect the fact that Jesus sets this “marrying and giving in marriage” in a very specific context: the days of Noah before the flood. It is clearly an allusion to Genesis 6, which mentions the marriages that took place precisely because they were forbidden: Genesis 6:2-3: "And it came to pass when men began to be numerous upon the earth, and daughters were born to them, that the sons of God having seen the daughters of men that they were beautiful, took to themselves wives of all whom they chose. And the Lord God said, “My Spirit shall certainly not remain among these men forever...” The cause-and-effect connection between illicit marriage and the flood judgment was firmly embedded in Israel’s national consciousness. Ellen Robbins observes that sexual immorality as the primary cause of the flood “remains the dominant motif in later [Jewish] interpretation.” One example is the tradition found in the book of Jubilees (ca. 150 BCE), where Noah warns his sons to refrain from the sort of marriages that instigated the flood judgment. Both the Old Testament and most other Second Temple Jewish texts regard illicit marriages as the primary cause of the flood. Jesus’ disciples therefore would have instantly recognized his reference to “marrying and giving in marriage” in the days of Noah as a warning againstbecoming entangled in sexual immorality. Luke Timothy Johnson observes that “for ancient moral logic generally, incontinence withrespect to food is integrally linked to incontinence with respect to sex.” The linkage between these two negative pairs of activities appears in several NT passages that specifically allude to the Olivet Discourse.Peter compared his generation with the “days of Noah” (1 Pe. 3:20-21) and cautioned believers to avoid “doing what the Gentiles want to do, living in sensuality, passions, drunkenness, orgies , drinking parties and lawless idolatry” (4:3). And Paul told the Roman church that “the hour has come for you to wake from sleep” (Rom. 13:11), meaning that they should “walk properly as in the daytime, not in orgies and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality andsensuality ” (13:12 13).Moreover, the activities Jesus mentioned in the Olivet Discourse are a list of sinful behaviors that would be prevalent right before his return. This means that just a few short hours afterhe first used the phrase “marrying and giving in marriage” in his confrontation with the Sadducees, Jesus used the same phrase a second and final time to describe the sexual immorality that would occur at the end of the age.
