    I’ve spent the better part of three decades deconstructing my conservative catholic upbringing (school, not my parents) and have recently started gently reconstructing my faith because as referenced in your video; I love Jesus but his fanclub..not so much. They’re literally using the Lord’s name in vain by causing harm in His name. After years of looking into other beliefs, and taking on THEIR wisdoms that resonated with my heart, I’ve joined a Methodist UK church and am being treated by them in a way Jesus would approve of. I’ve found a place I’m comfortable, peaceful, and joyful. Thanks for this video!!

    When I was young, I was exposed to different religions. My dad was Mormon. My ex-wife was Catholic and I had a few girlfriends that were different religions. I never really believed in any of them. I did believe in karma though.

    Thank you for such a thoughtful, clear explanation of this gospel. Last night during my meditation and contemplation, I was led to begin to study the Gnostic Gospels, beginning with Thomas .... and I couldn't have asked for anything more. I come from a Christian, Evangelical, Fundamentalist background and spent my first 30 years learning that - the next 30 deconstructing it - and now I'm building something new. Thank you!!!

    I never read the Bible. I was never religious. But I always want to know more about God and who we are. Yoga found me and I practiced it (celibacy, barefoot, fasting, isolation, begging, work for free) but I never read the scriptures or anything... After 10 years of walking the path, Gnosis came to me it was like BOOM the veil was open I saw the divine sparkle 🌟 rising, merging with the moon and out of my head and then huge silence tears of joy and suddenly everything started to make sense and I was disturbed but with a lot of peace. When we are free, there is no ego, we feel no heat or cold, no hunger, no desire, no emotions of the flash, and we feel only endless bliss🙏🏾🧘🏾‍♀️🌟🙉🌞🕊 Thank you!

      @@HaydenH03.There are two processes of understanding the Absolute Truth. One is called ascending process, or inductive logic, and another process is descending process, or deductive logic. So ascending process is based on speculation, and descending process is based on fact. descending knowledge. That is the way of understanding Vedic knowledge. It comes down from the Lord by disciplic succession, and this transcendental knowledge is distributed to the world by this descending process.

      @@themmydiedrichs8107 if this is all coming from the gospel of Thomas and the new age movement then you have been deceived. The gospel of Thomas was written by gnostics 150 years after Jesus. People that didn’t even meet him or weren’t eye witnesses. They twisted Jesus words and made up words as well to fit their own gnostic narrative. It’s a complete contradiction to the biblical canonical gospels.

    I am sooooo happy to have found you John ! Thanks to the internet, I live in Belgium !... the secret of the encounter of God : get completely rid of any preconceived image of Who God is, What God is. Like Moses in front of the burning bush, we need to "take out our sandals". In St John Gospel, Jesus says : "I am in God and God is in me". God is everything, God is everywhere, God and its creation, which includes all of us, is ONE. God is us, we are God or "in God" ! Open your eyes and discover who you are : you ARE "I AM". If you get "impregnated" by this faith, if you LIVE this faith, you are "delivered from death"... because you won't ever die : your "life" is not limited to the few years between physical birth and death, your life is the life of the whole universe, which is timeless !

We will never die and all of us are one in God the Father. Knowing who we are is the knowledge we are the image of God in the physical world. All of us.... our home is not this world. Our true home is the spirit world. And we never left we only feel that we live here... figure that one out... I know you know... keep the good work up and Thank you ..

    Hello John 😁 I am 63 years old and when I was around 30 I felt so unloved but I heard Yeshua whisper in my ear "I love you" That changed everything for me! I felt like everything was a part of love and when I even saw a bug, I would remove it from harms way. That's when I learned about the Jainist religion lol.I had such a hunger to learn all I could about Yeshua! And just like you I read about many "religions" and spirtual teachings as well as learning about the historical Yeshua even from the time before He was born. As I learned about the Gospel of Thomas, I learned that those were the direct sayings of Jesus and so read the gospel. I understood and agree with you on the sayings from this gospel but didn't understand others. And so you sowed your seeds and your interpretations made complete sense to me 😁 You are also right about following a path but then to just find out it lead back to a very simple concept/faith/belief...JESUS HAS ALWAYS BEEN IN ME!!! For me there is no need to search anymore and actually it is now a great peace for me!!! Yeshua is probably laughing at me and saying I was here all along silly willy lol 😉 I think Yeshua has a great sense of humor 😁 I am a neuropsychology professor at a local community college and my students often will stay after class to discuss various topics, we often talk about God, so I hope that I am planting some seeds of my own. I will now impart your teachings with my students and hopefully (and I know we will) have a bumper crop harvest 😂 🍎🍓🥑🥒🥕🧄🍊. ALL LOVE TO YOU ALWAYS. ❤

    I love this. Thank you for sharing these. I remember when I was 8 years old, my mother decided she was going to start going to church. It was a Presbyterian church, and we went for maybe 6 months, and I remember asking her not to make me go back because I didn't believe in hell and what the preacher was preaching. She didn't make me go back, thankfully. For most of my young adult life, I rejected Jeshua because of religion and Christianity. Then, about 25 ish years ago, I read the book The Messengers by Nick Brunick and ordered the painting of Jeshua as he knew of him. I always have that painting hanging. In 2002 I had a dream that Jesus came to me and talked to me in his time, and I have wondered since if I myself didn't live back then and know of him in some way. Most recently, I have come across information on the Essenes from Dolores Cannon and some other people who do QHHT. I feel so connected to that time period and Jeshua's teachings. I now have a much better understanding of Jeshua through your channel and what I have learned from the Essenes. I just turned 59 a few days ago and feel like a little kid discovering new things. 🥰 Thank you, thank you, John ❤

    Thank you for these videos. Love your handle. Being raised in a Catholic school taught me a lot, though when asking questions that they couldn't answer, they would label me a heathen. In retrospect, their nazel gazing was the greatest gift since it started me on the path of seeking answers through other teachings, only to finaly realize, that which was doing the seeking was in the way of finding what I was looking for, which you understand - the kingdom of heaven is within you.
    Anyway, your videos provoke a certain nostalgia I love listening to and knowledge I love regressing my childhood over since it has all taken on a different paradigm. Hope this all makes sense. The dualities of English make it a hard language to use somtimes. Keep doing you, brother 🙏

    Having my morning coffee with my brother John ☕️ 😊 🙏🏻 great sharing in this heart expansion lesson. I will say in a positive way as a recovering Christian evangelist 😂🤣 that most every Catholic I ever loved most certainly would never refer to themselves as a Christian 🤦🏼. Kinda reminds of the book of Joshua when the priest carrying the ark stepped into the Jordan and the water backed up to Adam 🤔 you gotta know where your water comes from 👍🏻

    It is okay to enjoy things. It's about making sure those things don't shift your perspective in a way that puts distance or distractions in your way that trips you up. 🎉

    Thank you making this video. It’s the best explanation of the interpretation of Jesus’s teaching.

    I’m only at 6:05 and feel compelled to congratulate you for your bravery, for speaking your truth out loud. I am finally getting myself “out there” (lol 😂 there’s no ‘out there’, I intellectually know, the experience is catching up…), and I too find resistance and closed-mindedness (fear) from “Christians” the most. Thank you for demonstrating speaking your truth. I remember you when I meet that resistance, and I’m choosing to go forward nonetheless. Thank you thank you thank you! The resistance of “others” will not kill me 😂
