Church Notes 3/23/25 

Biblical Question: Are you a lawbreaker? 

1 Women make eye contact, men look away 

(0:00:00) Start (0:00:37) JLP asks about eye contact…  (0:01:19) Intro (0:01:43) Welcome 

(0:02:03) We’re talking about how women look right at men when they’re talking to them, and men tend to look away. Why? 

(0:02:27) One woman gives feedback on psychology versus her view of it — intimidation? Dominance? Attraction and fear? (0:03:31) More discussion… Alexis speaks as well. 

(0:06:15) Colin, have you noticed you’re afraid? No. Now that you know, why are you? (0:07:10) Don’t look a man in the eye for long — a fight, or they think you’re gay. 

(0:07:51) Franky speaks… 

2 What is a human being? 

(0:09:01) What is a human being? … Wanna sit in the corder? Watch them as they come. Judge them! … People answer. 

(0:10:38) The reason the world was created? Made in the image of God? (0:10:57) A human body with a soul in it. 

(0:11:52) Homo sapien … Giraffe? Thing with the long neck? Dinosaurs? (0:12:26) But what is a human being? 

(0:12:56) Anthony and Kat don’t know! (0:13:27) Randy: Me. Idk. Randy’s wife: “Jesse… idk!” (idk = I don’t know.) “You made him seem like he was crazy.” 

(0:14:13) Cheyenne: A child of God. All these holy people. Her brother… So you believe in angels but not Santa 

(0:15:04) Hominid. Bipedal, featherless hominids. (0:15:35) A species, a label… 

(0:16:11) Milk lady. Beastly creature who rejects his creator, and makes man his creator. (0:16:38) Just a word we use to describe people. As opposed to a cat or dog. 

(0:17:06) Vessel for spirits. Did you just make that up right now? “Yeah.” 

(0:17:55) Colin: To be, or a being, is consciousness. (0:19:10) Man: I’m confused now. Never gave it a lot of thought. … 

2B Perfect peace? No, I’m human… Like a monkey? 

(0:19:52) JLP: People say all the time when I ask: Do you have perfect peace? They say, No, I’m a human being. (0:20:27) Another man: Before, I thought we were just an advanced animal. Don’t say that in front of black people! “Asian monkey.”  

(0:21:21) Rochelle… 

(0:22:24) Raymond: An individual who’s conscious. What is an individual? 

2C I’m not a human being… Idk what it is! 

(0:22:56) Little boy: I don’t think I’m a human being. Just a spirit from God. God made our body that we call human beings. (0:24:02) I thought I was a living, smart, intelligent animal. JLP: You thought you were pretty smart, huh? 

(0:24:23) JLP: So what is it? I don’t know! So we don’t know what a human being is? Everyone call themselves a human being. We can’t do this or that, can’t have peace…. 

(0:25:05) Anthony… JLP: Hercules made it up… (0:25:35) Omeed thinks it’s just a label. 

(0:26:46) Are you surprised? Did you know the world does not know what a human being is? The mother with the adult daughter 

(0:27:25) Franky… smart as a kid, now I’m confused with a head full of information and ideas… 

(0:28:14) Amazing Women’s Forum… Vanessa speaks… (0:29:01) A counterfeit of truth, she says. 

3 Jewish: A religion, and an ethnicity… 

(0:29:11) Rochelle Q on the race BQ — Jews are a nationality and a question. (0:29:59) It’s an ethnicity

4 Biblical Question: Are you a lawbreaker? 

(0:31:10) Anybody have a life this week? One person. What’s the Biblical Question? 

(0:31:49) Man physically breaks too many laws… Why? There’s too many. Jaywalking. If you don’t get caught, you’re not breaking the law. 

(0:32:42) Colin: No. Spirits controlling my actions — I’m not the one breaking the law. 

(0:33:20) Cheyenne: What did he say? Colin elaborates: Influenced by demons… Do I speed? Yes…. Awkward silence… (0:34:42) What? Nothing… I don’t feel strongly about this Biblical question. 

(0:35:02) Man: Yes. Why? Everybody’s broken them, speeding a little. (0:35:44) Franky… 

4B: God’s law. Raymond 

(0:36:08) Which law are you talking about? Mosaic law. 10 Commandments. Jesus: Love God, and Love your neighbor. 

(0:36:54) Raymond: I am a lawbreaker (0:37:27) More… (0:38:10) Randy’s wife: 100-percent… (0:38:36) Man: Yes. Spiritual and human laws… (0:39:24) Colin Q… (0:39:53) Ryan says it was the “not me.” 

(0:40:15) She agrees…. I don’t like people. 

(0:41:15) Randy: I listen to the thoughts. I don’t always seek first the kingdom of God. 

5 JLP: Anyone who… everything… is a lawbreaker 

(0:41:41) JLP: Anyone who has anger, thoughts, who cries, judges, has fear, doubt, gets lonely… is a lawbreaker. Anyone who compares himself to another, wants to be like someone else, … everything. If you look for love, you’re a lawbreaker. Any man who thinks of a woman is a lawbreaker. Any woman who thinks of a man… Whoever thinks getting married or having children… Revenge, gossip, envy, strife, intellectual, living in past or future… and so much more. 

(0:43:45) Anthony: No. Kat: Yep. (0:44:11) Man: I’m reforming. 

5B Feedback: Man with ‘new wife’; Unforgiveness, breaking spiritual law

(0:45:20) Randy… disconnected from social media. Devil in there twisting my mind. I’m incapable… 

(0:46:31) Do you like the new wife who’s coming about? Yes. 

(0:47:22) A mother: Unforgiveness… Never in the kingdom playing God. As long as your heart stays with anger, you’ll never know God. (0:49:23) JLP speaking… Can never love God until… It’s done; we’re free, but we don’t know it. 

5C Breaking the law, believing the lie 

(0:50:02) Colin: If we’ve never done wrong, how do we break the law? Because you believe you have. You believe the lie. You shall have no other gods before him. (0:51:17) JLP makes a great point…. 

(0:52:06) Have you noticed… (0:52:40) Are you now seeking, or just pretending? Secretly seeking something else! Something else driving me… 

(0:55:56) Nick: Will “I” always be a lawbreaker? Not if you stay on the straight and narrow. The real you won’t, but the false “I” that you identify with will. 

6 Seeking the kingdom. It’s possible. 

(0:56:36) Omeed: How do you seek only the kingdom? I work, go home, make dinner… what? I could cram my head reading the Bible like a good Christian. 

(0:57:47) Gal agrees: It’s boring being only at peace. 

(0:59:30) JLP makes a great point in talking with her. I don’t stop the ego thoughts — let whatever needs to happen to the ego. 

(1:01:28) Let’s say I call you a slut. “I saw you slutting in Mexico.” … Don’t run away from it. God will change it. (1:03:22) Makes sense… I don’t know if it’s possible. 

(1:04:43) If you never see another example, know it’s possible. Don’t need to see another example. 

(1:06:30) JLP sings: What am I supposed to do… ? Live, cry with your darkness. Going through the valley of the shadow of death. The Father’s with you. ADHD… (1:07:36) The doctor gives you pills! (1:09:41) She took meds in college and focused so well… 

(1:10:55) Don’t be judging me! (1:11:10) JLP tells a story of a man who wouldn’t put his daughter on it… A way to escape the present. 

6B Man not there yet: Wife’s eyes… 

(1:12:46) Anthony on whether he’s a lawbreaker… I get tempted, but I see it differently, watching myself. Gradual slowing down of those things…. Stay with it. This Nicaragua. I haven’t arrived yet. (1:13:53) Look at the wife eyes, when the husband not being real. 

7 Lying to yourself… Let’s say you’re ticked at Nick … 

(1:14:44) Alexis … (1:15:33) JLP: When you’re pretending, he’s not going to bother… She talks more. A thought comes: Be aware of that thought. 

(1:18:23) Let’s say you’re a lil ticked at Nick. 

(1:19:28) JLP: I thought you weren’t ticked! “I’m not.” (Angry voice.) … You don’t have to tell him you’re ticked. Don’t deny it in you. 

(1:21:30) JLP: Being aware of this evil, but stop calling it you. The Devil will tell you, I thought I got over this! He imitates you by your voice. 

(1:23:30) Spirits trying to enter us… 

7B More feedback

(1:23:46) Man: “Progress report”: How am I doing…? Fear God: Recognize, I used to overreact. JLP: Perfect peace… In God there is no thinking. (1:25:04) I work on myself 24 hours a day. Even right now. 

(1:25:53) Ryan: They’re believing in their heads a lie. No, forget about the “not-me” … Silent Prayer, catching… 

7C Irritation fills my whole being 

(1:27:18) Kat, let’s say I’m feeling irritated at something Anthony did. Should I control my facial expressions? 

(1:29:50) JLP: I almost want to beg you not to do anything…. (1:31:04) You’ll see it wasn’t a big deal anyway! 

(1:32:42) JLP: Look at the people destroying Elon Musk’s cars and business, because they disagree with what he’s doing… Evil. 

(1:36:00) Alexis learned about sincerity, the last thing I wanna do is put my hell out there… (1:37:47) JLP: Let’s say you do put it out there, don’t judge it. 

8 JLP: Fathers fighting for kids, breaking the law 

(1:38:37) I wanna say it, but don’t wanna… JLP: When you are fighting the woman for your children, you’re breaking the law, because it’s all emotional. The Father will take care of them. (1:39:47) It doesn’t matter if they come back when you’re 90. 

(1:41:11) Love is not a feeling! … But do what you want! Don’t cut the baby in half! 

8B The weight will fall off 

(1:41:50) First-timer Anthony: Stay with it. Why haven’t you forgiven your mother? Silent Prayer, not consistently. Love your misery? Maybe subconsciously. The weight will drop off. (1:43:26) Don’t love it or hate it. Don’t say, Oh, I’m such a fat pig! Even though you are, but feel nothing about it. 

8C Change of thoughts is a change of self 

(1:43:53) I had ADHD, but they just called you a dummy in my day. Thoughts are fascinating. A change of thoughts is a change of self — not a change of mind. Fake thoughts vs real thoughts. Stay with it. You’ll find what you’re looking for. 

(1:46:09) Don’t be like a Bible thumper and try to make it happen… Closing — feel the low! 

(1:47:33) Understand? Watch the thoughts. Live with them… 

An evil heart will not enter the Kingdom… (1:49:00) Do the Silent Prayer, forgive…
