This has helped me so much. Thank you for your presentation. I have never heard any of this previously what a wonderful teacher you are. Patricia Paten Australia.
14:00 "...before we fell from paradise"
Eating the fruit of judgment makes one become offended.
Forgiveness is spitting that fruit back out and grace is seeing the fruit but not eating it.
Thank you for sharing sacred knowledge =)
Rudolf Steiner said that none can speak and teach about supersensible topics if he's unable to look and reach these truths by yourself because there is a great possibility to commit errors in the explanation, so become a clairvoyant and then teach these things :)
39:14 "...through a people who had been selected long before."
One of the worst curses ever placed on any people is the idea of being selected or somehow more special than any other people. It created a bigotry mindset, which is blinding and dismissive. It leaves that people in contempt of all other races.
Bryan,
Excellent lecture. Very respectfully presented. Was the other mother, Mary Cleopas?
Thank you for the kind affirmations.
In the Gospel of John 19:25 we read, "But standing by the cross of Jesus were His mother, and His mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Cleopas, and Mary Magdalene." Cleopas is sometimes rendered Clopas or Cleophas.
Rudolf Steiner's spiritual scientific research verified that this text refers to three women (not four), all of whom are named Mary. How can two sisters both be named Mary? Researching this question leads to the discovery that the birth name of the mother of Jesus referred to in the Gospel of John was actually Sophia, with her "mystery" name becoming the "Virgin Mary" or simply Mary upon her initiation (similar to Saul's name being changed to Paul).
For a starting place on Rudolf Steiner's understanding, see his lectures:

Who is this? I want more 😇

49:40 so he denies Jesus as Messiah by implying Jesus had sinful flesh through Joseph and then invents false history by talking about a fantastic temple ceremony. Only Mary can expose heresies and thats wherethey will get exposed.
There is no denial that Jesus was the Messiah, nor is an invented false history presented. Everything shared in our videos is verified to the best of our ability. If there is any inadvertent heresy in relation to spiritual truths, we pray that Mary, Christ, and the Holy Spirit will expose and correct it. Thank you for your commitment to seeking truth.
