Welcome
(0:00:00) Small talk, Intro (0:00:59) Welcome
01 - Lay your weapons down. 9/11 counterprotester confrontation
(0:01:50) 9/11 celebration in NYC. Protester dressed like Elmo (Sesame Street character). Firefighter type guy confronted him.
(0:04:51) Lay your weapons down. There's nothing to fight for EVER.
(0:05:55) Talking to a crowd here, y'all don't fight over anything, right? Protesting abortion didn’t stop anything!
(0:07:13) We did a story: one in 3 of Gen Z is already dead!
(0:08:31) Husband or wife wanna leave. “I want that young thing down the road.” OK! No need to cry. Trusting Satan, not God.
(0:09:26) Become lonely. Loneliness is an illusion. If you wanna be free, lay your weapons down.
1B - Judging unpatriotic coworker's remark
(0:10:29) Young lady speaks. Anecdote/question. Office on 9/11. Unpatriotic remark.
(0:11:59) You didn't say it but you thought it? Should I have spoken up? I wanted to go up to the mountains.
(0:13:01) White man: That's a good question. (0:13:54) What are you looking at? Helps me think. I think she did right.
(0:14:29) Laying weapons down? Right response.
(0:15:26) JLP: Judged coworker in mind
(0:15:56) Retreating
(0:16:37) This person has dual citizenship. We remember America came together at the time.
1C - Told to remember 9/11, 25 years ago
(0:17:35) Because you judged. I was thinking about it the past couple of days. If they hadn’t told you to remember it.
(0:18:56) Would you remember it?
(0:20:00) I was really close to my grandmother. I don't remember when she died. Nor my mama!
(0:20:36) Am I wrong?
(0:21:22) JLP: People remember slavery. It’s all a lie! It’s all a game! The world plays a game on us. People walk around looking stupid… well not stuuupid.
(0:22:46) JLP: The world controls you. Why not overcome the world? Which looks better? To pretend you remember, or not to remember?
(0:24:01) Overcome the world. The world is lost, of the Devil.
1D - Not responding like the world
(0:24:26) Man speaks: Understanding is difficult. That's why most people judge. You judge someone who says something, rather than understand.
(0:25:01) JLP: If you stay with this, a natural way to live.
(0:25:30) Stay with it. Young lady: Thank you!
(0:25:49) JLP: If you're in the light, something from God would help you deal with that person in the right way.
(0:26:15) Part II of her question, reconciling, loving enemy … move to mountains, hate the birds, bees, and the mosquitos! Mosquitoes
1E - Protesters blocking roads? Catch useless thoughts. Keeping up with news.
(0:28:56) What if people shut down freeways and traffic. Physically removing them?
(0:30:24) What if you calmly remove them? … What about people trying to get to the hospital or some emergency?
(0:32:00) Dolores wanna tell you what's wrong with you. He’s in his imagination.
(0:32:43) JLP: Useless thoughts. Fair enough. Catch those useless thoughts!
(0:33:24) ANOTHER GREAT ONE: When you gonna stop listening to the world. I get my news from X. It goes through me now. Not triggering. — all this stuff going on and you won’t be affected by it.
(0:34:28) Francisco on picking sides
(0:35:16) JLP: It's amazing all these people in our country. Nothing gonna change!
(0:35:36) Shayan on busy workday
1F - Crying every year for late mother

(0:50:50) “Same.” What mother think? Depressed? Bored. Lost some friends.
(0:55:37) Nothing to look forward to! She went to another church to see. In the right place being bored.
(0:57:34) I cried one time. It’s truly amazing.
(0:58:19) Dolores convo about this on the way to church. We’ve been watching each other go through the process over and over. Up and down.
2B - One reason to be here: Create love on earth
(1:00:48) Nothing to look forward to? I look forward to these meetings.
(1:01:13) Only one reason to be on earth. To bring love. Everything else is a waste. He gave us the ability to do all these other things. You’ll know when you have love, nothing but love.
03 - Do you believe in God?
(1:03:23) Anybody here believe in God? Hassan…? Idk now. Eric (1:06:35) Raymond (1:07:04) Kurt
(1:07:27) Young lady on life and God
3B - JLP on belief
(1:08:49) JLP: You can’t believe in God. As long as you believe in God you’ll never know God. Just ideas.
(1:11:41) They start a war! All religions fight.
Why yall lookin crazy?
(1:12:58) Franky
(1:13:56) Manifesting?
(1:17:47) Life without thinking about God
(1:18:24) John 3: 16 — tricked by the word belief
(1:20:15) Lied to the moment we popped out of mama’s womb. It would come to us naturally
(1:22:42) Know God. That verse on repeat in my head.
3C - Believe in God but no peace.
(1:23:13) JLP: The depths of how you’ve been lied to. Pay attn to the people who say they believe in God.
(1:25:05) Man wants perfect peace. Stop thinking. Satan is bored. Call up aunt Martha. Buddha boy!
Not doing Silent Prayer but once a day. What a beta. FL. Suffer
(1:29:04) If and when you make up your mind…
04 - BQ: Why you prefer sacrifice over mercy?
(1:29:47) Biblical Question — Andrew
(1:31:55) Why you sitting there like a knot on a log? Why you waiting? My daughter if I had one… listening to the Devil
(1:33:16) Why is it easier? No why do you prefer… I’m gonna fast today for the Lord.
(1:34:24) Alyssa avoids putting herself in situations to endure. Uncomfortable when people look at me talk, 26.
(1:35:32) Mercy is easier. Don’t care.
(1:36:02) Hassan, like OT or NT — I say it, you don’t know what I sacrificed for this! When women say I want a career… (1:38:57) Man (1:39:41) Nick (1:40:45) Alexis
(1:41:19) Another man, British-sounding accent? (1:42:06) Young lady defines it, Alexis
4B - Which does God prefer, mercy or sacrifice?
(1:42:53) Which does God prefer? Franky: God OFFERS mercy…
(1:43:41) Young lady

(1:45:56) Kurt (1:46:51) Sam
4D - JLP on BQ: God prefers mercy.
(1:47:14) JLP on BQ: God prefers mercy. Jesus said the same.
(1:48:54) Mercy is love. I know you just can't see. God loves us.
(1:49:47) The world and even RELIGION is about sacrifice and not mercy. — They’d rather believe God slaughtered his only Son, for us. Put you on a cross. They believe in Sacrifice and not mercy. People who believe that have NO mercy.
“Pick up your cross and follow me. Love God, and your enemy.” Mercy. God is not a vicious God. He is perfect Love.
(1:49:47) The world and even RELIGION is about sacrifice and not mercy.
(1:52:28) In closing, look how selfish people are with sacrifice! Hassan. Parents.
(1:54:16) They name evil something else. “Racism,” etc. Dress it up. Clapping: Stop looking to the world for answers. They don’t have the answers. If they’re not pointing you back to you, the wrong answer!
4E - God wrote it in our hearts
(1:55:06) Sam: God wrote it in our hearts. Why? So you’d know the truth.
(1:57:07) It is finished. Don’t look over there.
(1:58:14) Starting to see hell is here on earth? "In me!" Human nature is evil.
4F - Clancy Juror: the brother stood alone
(1:59:21) Black guy on the jury in the Lindsay Clancy trial, a brother stood up!
