The Bible is about dying in the false spirit to live in the righteous spirit (which is immortal (because truth is eternal and God is truth, hence offers eternal life, whereas material and self immortality is a delusion)) But you're right, pride isn't the sin, but the fact it may contain a false idea of oneself, just like walking on air metaphorically, when realisticly regardless of your belief, or pride, you will fall. Therefore belief is pride and can be false. Therefore faith and belief is not the same thing. Faith in truth (what it is) is not the same as belief of what it does which isn't knowledge as nobody can contain the fullness of truth

Sorry but I think this is false advice to give.

Please increase the amount of small talk, as I even if sometimes I do not find it amusing in itself or just don't get it, I do find the comments complaining about it rather amusing. Thanks for all your work!
I got into this when reading the prayers about the Theotokos being the only one who like knew about the incarnation save Gabriel, But it’s like did the devil(s) know? When Jesus says he witnessed Satan fall like lightning from the sky? Now that touches on the specific time about Genesis 3 or after the crucifixion. Must’ve been before? And if it was then the devil(s) must’ve know about the incarnation but Church Fathers often talk about The cross being like the hook 🪝 or the bait that was swallowed up by death if you will hence the sign of Jonah and no other sign would be given. Anyways good stuff in the pod and thanks for the discussion. Praise to the God. The h and yea about the bait i.e, Satan was unawares of the repercussions but again biblically they knew who he was the Holy One of God prior to crucixion, so again but either way the important thing is that by death he trampled down death and bestowed life to those in the tombs.

Considering the numerous testimonies of music stars who hint at making a deal with the devil. When it comes to the spirit of a person who makes a Faustian deal, whose son is he? When it comes to fame, money and power, chances are those deals do not solely happen for the entertainment industry. Thousands of years ago being a king would be like becoming a star. In my view, even with Heiser's model for the supernatural world, the giants can be a society of people who have cut a deal with one of any number of fallen angels.
How is it that the episode wherein Azazel is mentioned dozens of times has the fewest X-Men references in recent memory? These guys dont talk about comic books enough!
So the spiritual secret is when it comes to the subject. I don't like talking about what to be in heaven. That means all was in heaven until the day of when Christ say it. Okay. Well, Eric, everybody's in heaven means they up in heaven. Their spirit is all the spirits that all part of us are in heaven, which means God. Christ, the mother and all the other archangels that are with us. And that are part of our spirit. Which means it is possible for 4 satan to fall. If he doesn't do right. That's what that means, and that's basically out of heaven with all the other archangels. Cause he is a archangel as well as all the archangels archangels. Even the demons so, and that's the greatest secret ever and you can feel it every time, once you transliterate, if you're in heaven whether you're sending or descending
The other example was how you know, as when the 24 elders and revelations say oh, and they fail to their knees and worship. God. Well, there's so many ways of honoring a person spiritually. According to the spiritual Royal tea that we have here for those who. Ascend. Well, if they do it to acknowledge God, the different ways, one is with your hands together with a nod of the head, which is eventually a proper bow. Means you always stand into attention to always protect God. No matter what happened and then you got the other different ways of. Savally, and that's bound with both hands to the head Bowing, and the other one is the full bow that the Muslims do when they pray. That's the other bow, and that was the bowel that they was talking about and revelations. So there's way to bring the energy up so you can. Ascend, you can teach others to bring the energy up so you can sing in heaven. And that is, when it comes to healing energy and all types of energy that brings energy towards you so you can have a long life. It's the frequency of energy
Hello Fathers. That William Brahman guy and his other associates spawned the Christian identity movement. I know it’s small but there’s an avenue if y’all wanted to see even crazier stuff.

"And now you shall feel the pain of child birth" This is yoltaboath or the demiurge talking to Adam and Eve in the garden. "And I shall put eminty between her seed and yours," This is the seed of the serpent which is a dragon. And Adam named her Mother of All! Aka Eve! It is in the scriptures but you are not reading between the lines!
Cain and Able were the seed of the Dragon the demiurge or Yoltaboath, Chris said in the infancy of the gospel " there is a new age which will refer to them as Cain and Able but we know them as Yahweh and the elohim! Seth is Adams son. The rape of Eve read it.

@@tjt2383 true, but the problem is that after that opening, I can't take these guys seriously. Sad, isn't it? Many years ago, if a young person applied for a first professional job with a large American corporation, it wasn't uncommon for one or two of the people who would make the decision to hire or not to invite the person for lunch at a fancy restaurant. They were curious about something: when the entrees arrive, would the applicant season his food before he tasted it? If he did, he would without realizing it be scratching himself from consideration. The company wanted employees who had the common sense to at least take one bite of the food before seasoning it. My experience with these two guys is my equivalent of "the salt and pepper test." Too bad. I hope they grow up eventually.
