Oh my goodness! After years of watching OTLE and attending Dr. Rose's on line Bible Study group I am beginning to see the correspondences and the inner meanings of the nouns - objects - things - in the Word!! The inner spiritual deeper meaning is beginning to shine though the "literal" or surface or apparent wording!!! I am amazed at how it is making so much sense to me - at last!! Wonderful teaching!! Amazing!!❤❤
Sadly the channel is one of the best kept secrets i have come across. Why Dr Rose why. 165k subs and 1% watch and and a whole 144 people like it. i am so glad your back maybe you can solve this mystery as Paul unraveled his for us. 🙏
OMG every time I listen to you ~ there is something that is beyond coincidence. I can not fully explain but the part where you said "The emblem you could embroider on his body of theology is "You can understand these things, there is a logic to it , the logic is essentially correspondences" That right there is significant in regards to a conversation I had much earlier in the day. God loves to confirm things for me. AMEN. You guys are wonderful. Keep teaching~ you make a lot of sense.
Always a joy to hear about the synchronicity/Providence in the timing of these videos for people. Thanks for sharing that, user-ze8. Thanks for the encouragement, too -- we'll keep going, and we're so happy these ideas are meaningful for you!
Regeneration: Reconnection with and living from the "I AM" in the spirit of every individual. Correspondences: Spiritual ideas and concepts exist first in a non-tangible form, then the physical objects are the manifestation of those ideas and concepts in a concrete form. That is why there are correspondences. You can sort of think of physical objects as a image/painting of those spiritual ideas and concepts.
I remember my minister back in Boulder telling us that the Bible can be read on three different levels: historical, physical/literal, and the level you guys are talking about. Thank God for OTLE.
I was always taught the same thing. The scriptures are real and did happen historically, but also has layers of meaning. The symbology in the scriptures is so rich and teach us so much. It’s limitless. Great talk. Love the seed and the full tree analogy.
The Word and it's spiritual sense is like a body and it's soul, without the soul the body has no life, Thank you for this wonderful teachings, I love it❤🙏
Ty so much for confirming what I believe the Holy Spirit has told me. And I think it’s ties in with the purpose the means and the result. The word of God is a seed in us. Its purpose is supposed to be like Jesus to be saved to be God’s child to be regenerated I agree, amen thank you so much for discussing this. Actually the book regeneration a spiritual growth and how it works was instrumental in my rebirth. So thank you guys so much. I agree it’s so good to see you two together.
I must confess im a little bit like a 6 year old when it comes to wrapping my head around things lol. Thank you for this great video. I understand how the word is now. How it too is like a seed that flourishes just like life, just like us.
Sounds like you got a good take-away then, Yvonne! Curtis explains his "6-year-old" comment in a response to "websurfer" in this thread -- hope that'll clear things up for you, as far as what he meant. This is big stuff for us mere mortals to wrap our heads around -- no doubt about it!
Oh Tom -- My heart goes out to you! So much loss in such a short time. Have you found some of the videos on our channel that might be helpful? Like this one? "Will We See Our Loved Ones in the Afterlife?" th-cam.com/video/9gdngWOvKas/w-d-xo.html
To get to the beginning of regeneration is a process, and possibly the making of mistakes and faulty thinking are steps we make long enough until we realize we have been standing in muck and mire without knowing it. Then, when we turn to the Lord, we are desiring truth and not the delusion that portrayed itself long enough to convince us it was right when it was totally wrong. This is quite literally standing in a level of hell portraying itself as anything but that. Once we are able to get through the muck and mire and realize what had hold of us, we are discarding it, unhooking its claws and rejecting anything in opposition to the Lord. The problem with evil and deception is it can and does portray itself as innocent when it is anything but those things. We cast them aside in our repentance and rejection of the falsities that can no longer serve us. Then, we come to the realization from our free will that evil and deception cannot serve those with a Heavenly mind, which is what we want to cultivate.
The Holy Bible is written in a way that describes the totality of both positive and negative ideas (across humanity and beyond) and how these positive and negative ideas evolve over time. The Holy Bible starts with how evil and falsities come into existence (Genesis) and ends with how evil and falsities is permanently eliminated when everyone knows the Truth (Revelation). God cannot produce negative ideas, but God can experience negative ideas and their effects as a human (Jesus Christ) in order to figure out how to save everyone from evil and falsities. By utilizing those negative experiences and purifying them to use for good, God is able to work with everyone using their own experiences and navigate them out of evil and falsities.
There is a version of the Bible put out by a Swedenborgian group, influenced by the correspondences and such Alvin. You can check it out here: thesacredscripture.org/

@@offTheLeftEye Basically Everything! Our “Daily Bread” is The Father Knows what we need before we even ask and He Will Give it to us. “Forgive and you will be forgiven” keeps you safe from Karma..”Delivers you from evil.”
Oh, I didn't mean it like that!! I was referencing the quote from Einstein "if you can't explain it to a six-year-old, you don't understand it yourself." I was just jokingly expressing frustration at myself for struggling to explain the subject clearly. I was just imagining a six-year old that I was trying to explain it to. I realize though that the beginning of that is earlier in the longer episode that this came from, so in this clip it doesn't have that context so I get why you would think I was being demeaning to the audience. Not my intention! We will release the full episode on Monday that makes that clear. Sorry!
Thank you for sharing Emanuel Swedenborg with us. His works are wonderful and help me to get closer to the lord.
That is absolutely why we are here, Sibyllaperez. Thank you for expressing it!

So sweet, Mary, to hear that a new awareness is dawning for you! You are blessed indeed!
I am so glad you are posting these conversations again. I could listen to the two of you every day. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge.

Ain't it, though!

What a great synthesis of all these ideas, Bojian. Thank you!
Are there reasons why Swedenborg groups did not come out with their own bibles instead of relying on KJV and other versions?
There is a version of the Bible put out by a Swedenborgian group, influenced by the correspondences and such Alvin. You can check it out here: thesacredscripture.org/
Is it possible if I could interview Curtis? I have started a youtube channel and thought it would be great to have a discussion with him.

I need to understand correspondence better. I feel like I see something every day that makes me say ok, what does this mean. 🤔 nature speaks so much.
Yes Sherry, nature is an incredible teacher! Here is a video about correspondences in nature. th-cam.com/video/0z8CxaQUqzM/w-d-xo.html
