CHURCH NOTES 6/21/26
📖 Biblical Question (BQ): What did Jesus mean when he said, I and my Father are one?
A question for the meeting: Do you believe that God is all knowing, all powerful, all love, all everything?
NEW BQ: Can you know God and reject Him?
00 - Welcome
(0:00:00) Start, small talk off-mic
01 - Happy Father’s Day.
(0:02:03) GM, Happy Father's Day
(0:2:15) JLP: Reflecting on my Father
(0:04:32) Any questions?
(0:04:50) Raymond
(0:06:25) After wishing happy WHM, man talks about US History related to fathers.
02 - God: All-powerful, all-knowing…?
(0:07:52) I have a question: Do you believe that God...
(0:12:32) How's your relationship with your father? Distant. (0:15:38) Do you believe God is all powerful? I do. How do you know / believe that? Lily (or Lilly)...
(0:17:11) Hake explains. Raymond say he can see it as truth. (0:17:57) Young ladies… (0:21:28) Lily (or Lilly) on Fathers.... (0:22:19) There's a weird argument that God is outside creation...?
03 - Biblical Question: I and my Father are one?
(0:23:14) Biblical Question
(0:24:44) JLP: Anyone who gets angry...
(0:25:51) Man visiting... Vanessa: "Holy Father..." (0:30:28) Vanessa elaborates on her father who's sleeping late (0:32:22) Franky: not BQ, wants to answer
(0:35:19) I and my father are one? Same mind, says man. (0:36:12) Matt close to father?
(0:36:40) More BQ (0:37:29) Raymond on BQ
(0:38:02) Dolores (0:39:10) Dolores doesn’t even know who her father is. Something missing. Insecure. Something lacking big in her life. Mother said father had multiple families and thought it was best to separate from him. (0:40:09) Met step bro by accident. Her maiden name is uncommon. His talking about his father, she deduced oh this my stepbrother. He ghosted her, maybe got scared.
(0:42:36) Big Dog? Just Jackie! BQ and loves her dad
(0:43:57) Young man: Atheists, existential… Didn’t get along with my dad.
3B - Marriage is not like that? Man and fiancée
(0:46:41) Man says: Different translations: In agreement, in unison. Quoting Jesus in the Bible: I only do what my Father says.... Do you think a marriage is like that? (0:47:50) JLP: Marriage is NOT like that! She’s gonna hope so, too, his fiancée or girlfriend, haha! Maybe I don’t know what agreement is.
(0:49:56) Young lady continues: I'm very close to my dad. I always wanted to prove something to my dad. (0:50:49) Difficult to speak up? After “women’s group” (women’s forum) … Having my own mind versus ChatGPT… I didn’t wanna sound weird. I get in my head about how does it sound, perception. Wanna come up here? Already done that. Nervous? No, don’t think so.
(0:52:16) Divorced parents: My mom made dad the boogie man.
3C - My earthly father and I are one
(0:52:47) I grew up hating my father. (Prior he said, me and my father became one.) We can disagree, he can be in Korea, not talk, but none of that matters. We're good. We're one. I feel like.
(0:53:33) Kurt: It’s amazing.
04 - JLP: You're not your thoughts. You've been thoughts.
(0:53:58) JLP: You’re not your thoughts. All of your life, all you’ve ever been was thoughts. Made that way as a child, told to THINK. Think about what you want, where you’re going, whom to marry, career, where you live… think, think. In thinking, it’s kept you away from life.
(0:55:18) JLP: Elon Musk made you rich. You're not happy. You're not your happiness. When Elon gave you all that money… You are not your anger, resentment, an alcoholic, addict, murderer, thief, molester… Those are just thoughts. Your color, culture. Those are all just thoughts. (Also: RELATIONSHIPS, just thoughts.) “I wanna be like someone else,” Just a thought and not real.
(0:57:57) I'll take pills to feel better. There is no you to feel better. Nothing has ever been wrong with you. It's impossible for anything ever to be wrong with you.
All your life you've been living thoughts, catching hell, never work. Why RELATIONSHIPS don't work. You THOUGHT, they're nice to me, smile at me, paid for this, opened door…
(0:59:22) Happiness is not a feeling. When you're "happy," you're really sad, and you call it happiness. And you work hard to try to stay happy. "I was so happy" when we first met. "You used to make me happy!" DATE NIGHT. Happiness is not a feeling. "Happiness" is never enough. You feel so happy they smiled at you. You go out of your way to make them smile again.
(1:00:59) You are a bucketload of thoughts. Nothing real about you, because there's nothing real about thoughts. To overcome them, you're gonna have to die from them. (1:01:23) Israel trip: They took us to the gates of hell. You gotta go. Go down into the gates of hell, open up that dark door. Gates of fear, loneliness, stress, worry, thinking you’re poor or rich… Nobody love me, no children, “I’m an alcoholic,” a this, a that.
It’s gonna be SCARY. You’re gonna wanna turn around and run back. But don’t. You’ll never know heaven or reach it. You can’t escape it. You’ll lose ALL IDENTITIES. They’ve all been illusions. Never real. Hell was never real, just a thought.
4B - Christ tempted in the desert
(1:04:15) When Christ went into the desert, 40 days & 40 nights. It was HOT. He was in Palestine.
Hake note: Matthew 4:1-11 KJV - Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit - Bible Gateway
Hake note: Luke 4:1-13 KJV - And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost - Bible Gateway
Satan said: You can have whatever CAR you want! He was there in the MIND. You gotta go through every thought, and let it pass. About yourself, other people. Anything or anyone.
4C - Surrounded by enemies: Psalms
(1:07:38) In the Bible it says: I am surrounded by my enemies
(1:08:04) Raymond, Hake
(1:08:46) JLP: You're surrounded by your enemies.
05 - Feedback: Overthinking. Thinking of Self. Mr. Big Stuff
(1:12:04) Feedback: Overthinking: When Adam separated from God?
(1:13:36) JLP: All thinking people are in agreement with Satan. When you think about "God," you're one with Satan. When you imagine what your life is, what it's gonna be... When you think of what you have or don't have enough of, you and Satan are one...
Feedback continues…
5B - Jackie: What a Brat
(1:15:15) Jackie: I didn't raise my hand. JLP: But you should have. Jackie: I guess I’m with satan.
(1:18:50) JLP: What a brat. Jackie: C'mon everyone here thinks about themselves. JLP: That's the problem.... Interesting.
5C - Sha: Mr. Big Stuff
(1:19:34) Sha (Southern gal, Miss Alabama): Why do I encourage you to stop thinking? What if you stopped thinking? (1:21:22) JLP: Everybody’s problem, Their world is their mind.
(1:22:09) If you ever stop thinking, could anyone make you mad, frustrated...? Sha: I'm still kinda double-minded, I haven't fully surrendered yet. Why not? Who do you think you are? Mr. Big Stuff.
(1:23:02) Daniel: They think their life will be boring. Sha: I still think I need to be respected. "Big Dog."
5D - JLP: All are weak, with false identities
(1:25:07) JLP: ... But you're really weak, and pathetic. You don't wanna face that either. When you're weak is when you will be made strong, the power of God's strength in you. But you're protecting a false strength. Not one person is strong. They just won't admit they're weak.
(1:27:14) JLP called the woman's first name. "I'm a congressperson, respect me! Turn his mic off!" A title to control you. A title ain’t worth a dime. Pope, Father… People worshiping Mary! …
False identities. (1:29:15) When you're mad, just picking up a false identity keeping you in hell. Christ gave up a life, gave up the ego.
It’s just a thought!
5E - Feedback: What is intuition?
(1:30:42) Sha: What is your intuition? Another thought thing? I’ve experienced where my intuition told me something, and I’m grateful I followed it.
(1:31:51) Hake explains a couple possibilities: Good or bad…
(1:32:50) Did you have an intuition?
(1:34:39) Jackie: You don't want respect? I don't care anymore.
5F - Treated in a way you think is wrong? Gut feeling? Sir? Ma'am? “No good”?
(1:35:19) JLP: It's just a thought! All you are are thoughts. Treated the way you think you shouldn’t be? Let them treat you that way, and feel the pain.
(1:36:09) Man: When she mentioned intuition. Gut feeling. Limbic system (spelling?) or something? Secret hidden door. Evolution if you believe it.
(1:37:37) Troy: Do you say sir or ma’am, to show love? Our parents taught us that way.
(1:39:37) Raymond: Gates of hell when I pray. Thoughts and emotions. Do it when you think of yourself as no good? Raymond: That doesn’t sound really comforting. (funny)
(1:42:44) Raymond, pull up 1 John 4:8 (to be read later)
Man says: I know it's possible to get out of the mindset of thinking, and into the mindset of doing. Totally what Jesse says about stop thinking. I've experienced it. Have you stopped? No. “I have a honeymoon period. This is working, this is going good.” You’re in hell, and don’t know it. I give in to hell, don’t resist it. I react. So you don’t know it’s possible to be free. If you knew, you would not give in. JLP: It’s hard because you’re so identified with it.
5G - Get worse before it gets better? People lying to you?
(1:45:38) Jewish guy asks: Gonna get worse before it gets better. Why? JLP: Got through hell, it's rough. Fear. Losing all identity. Nothing left. Losing people, family, not EVERYBODY, die from that by not being mad, judging them.
Second question, related: You know they’re lying to you, but you don’t wanna get angry. JLP’s advice when people are lying to you and you know it.
5H - Doug: Intuitions? Bag of thoughts? When you’re not thinking…
(1:49:04) Doug, do you have “intuitions”? A bag of thoughts all your life? “You can do anything you put your mind to! “You can be President!” Yeah, right.
(1:50:55) JLP: When you're not thinking, nothing happens yet everything happens for you.
(1:51:53) Franky: Instincts? No, intuition. A knowing. You know. Something told me to stop at this red light, or a green light, and a car went through. When you go against it.
(1:52:36) Real fast, Hake. God knew, and let him…
- Franky: Why God ask Adam? God knew the answer, but was giving them the opportunity to question and see. (People claim it was a rhetorical question, as if it needed no answer, but it was like, NO, that was a question. That he already knew the answer to.) It was an enlightening question to let them discover, rather than just accuse and condemn and diagnose — let them see what it is. Sharing the Light, shining the light.
- Dolores’ dad vs JLP’s “dad” (grandpa) — the old school… with the many women & children. (I maybe prefer my dad’s way, one wife, one set of kids, but…)
(1:54:17) JLP: My granddad… 7 with my grandma. 7 with Ms. Shug. With the woman down the road, he had two. We all knew each other. That’s heaven.
06 - “Closing”: Stop reacting to thoughts, judging. One with God
(1:55:10) JLP Closing: You're all thoughts, and you're reacting to thoughts. If you ever stop reacting to thoughts, you'll be thoughtless, and free. … LOVE
(1:58:39) You'll discover you're truly ONE with God
(2:00:37) Hake reads 1 John 4: 8 - Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.
6B - Did you forgive your mother?
(2:01:20) Did you forgive your mother? Yeah! You told her? “I just forgive her in my head. In my thoughts. I didn’t feel a need for it, like she did something wrong to me.” Back in childhood, some stuff between her, situation she put me in.
(2:02:52) JLP: She couldn't help herself. You'll realize you're wrong for resenting her. Her devil is in you, you're just like her. Sorry for resenting her, realizing she couldn't help it. God will forgive you when you admit it. Have to face her! "I'm fine with that."
(2:04:59) Probably more issues with father than mother? FATHERS DON’T DO WRONG. She won’t tell you what she did to drive him crazy. Isn’t that amazing? Uh-huh. “Okay.” She won’t tell you. She’s evil. “I’ve heard that before.” Ask your father. He’ll tell you.
6C - Real closing: It’s just a thought!
(2:08:05) JLP: It's just a thought! Stop thinking!
(2:08:59) Stay with it, overcome the world
