Welcome: Nick, Joel, ‘Super Bowl’

(0:00:00) Talking with Nick (0:01:24) Joel Friday

(0:02:20) Welcome … Basketball game today?

1 BOND meetings, 35 years ago

(0:03:17) BOND 35th anniversary — JLP’s start. Scared! “5-year plan.” Not what my idea for life was…

(0:10:46) I’m 25, I gotta buy a house!

(0:14:31) I started partying at the house! … I was getting food stamps too! Used to smoke pot a little bit.

1B Have no plan … No need to think

(0:15:42) JLP: You don’t have to have a plan for your life! Life will happen by itself, and it’ll be amazing. Let God do it.

(0:16:28) Starting a janitorial service, selling it.

(0:18:06) BOND so poor, yet paying the bills

(0:19:11) Don’t look for a wife… (0:19:28) JLP: I almost got married twice … A woman ever tried to control you? (0:20:25) I bought this ring from CostCo: It was expensive. Like $100! I cut it off… It wasn’t meant to be. (0:21:01) Take the ring back!

(0:21:11) Let life go. God will take care of you. It will work better… I’ve never missed one night of sleep. (0:21:40) I barely graduated high school. I was 18 of 18. Made an “A” once — on a true/false test.

(0:22:24) God loves us, but you don’t trust God. … The Devil fools with you, makes you feel stupid helping people, convincing you to help again. Tell a joke, nobody laughs.

(0:24:25) … No need to think.

2 Feedback: stop thinking? Change through Forgiveness

(0:24:55) First-timers: What would happen if you stopped thinking? I’d be more free, says the first man.

(0:26:33) Another man: I would start living. Cut it out. …

(0:28:07) Second man asks: Was there a transition for you? Like when one cuts out sugar? JLP: First of all I love sugar. (0:28:42) It happened on its own. One thing led to another. Understanding came. (0:29:09) JLP: B/C I didn’t know you could live without thinking. I used to feel all this crap. (0:30:01) I forgot I asked, but saw evil in me. Darkness. I didn’t know I resented my mother. (0:32:50) It happened on its own; it wasn’t a trans…gender.

Most won’t stay with it… (0:33:33) Liberals say: “I need to find my voice.” JLP: We don’t have a voice.

(0:34:11) How did you know thoughts were not yours? I could see they were not.

3A The Prodigal Son: Story helped you?

(0:35:02) Second man on thoughts: I lack faith. (0:36:10) Practice staying present. Men’s Meeting last Thursday. What I just realized: I didn’t know what the Prodigal Son meant. (0:37:05) Are you Christian? Buddhist? I have a relationship with Jesus? “It’s just my truth, idk.” What’s your truth? You sound like Oprah! (0:38:12) JLP: Drop it. Let all that go… Tell you why in a minute.

(0:38:26) What’s the Prodigal Son? Ryan answers. (0:39:31) Rachel

(0:40:40) Christian gal: I’m not a Bible thumper. Definitely not Jewish. That doesn’t sound like love for the Jews… (0:41:11) Alexis (0:41:43) Raymond is very familiar.

(0:43:05) Another man: Good one! (0:44:25) Have you stopped judging? No, but I recognize it…

3B Do you judge? Who are you?

(0:44:38) Do you judge? Why? Habit… myself? (0:46:37) Why do you think you’re being judged, if you don’t know who you are? (0:47:13) We’re still here… Why do you get mad when people say horrible things about you? How do you know they’re talking about you?

(0:48:28) Forgiven your mother? Not father… (0:49:31) Do you resent him? You don’t.

(0:50:28) JLP: You mexican? And don’t have any children? Everybody have babies now, but white people.

(0:50:50) JLP: Once you get understanding of you, no judgment. You could go get raped, and you would not judge. Not created to judge. When you do, you’re bringing it on yourself.

3C Back to Prodigal Son

(0:52:32) Young lady on Prodigal Son story… We’re all son — well you’re daughter, unless trans…

3D Drag Queen at a church

(0:53:44) JLP retells a situation in a clip played on the radio show Thursday, Feb 6, 2025, with the Experts.

(0:55:55) Would you have thrown the drag queen out of church? You know how women judge.

(0:56:59) JLP: I would not have thrown him out. (0:58:27) Wasn’t making noise or anything, just sitting there in mama’s dress!

3E JLP: The Prodigal Son

(0:58:43) The Prodigal Son: Little child is innocent, no judgment… Child traumatized, escapes into imagination, goes into thoughts. No longer innocent, now living one with thoughts.

Out in the wilderness of the imagination, mistaken fake love for love… (1:01:32) Angry about things not even important. Can’t find the way back to the Father. … Starting to leave the jungle…

(1:03:11) All are prodigal sons and daughters. Overcome the jungle of thoughts. Stay present. God, the Kingdom of Heaven, is right here, right now.

(1:04:10) Only thing you need to be saved from is imagination. … No such thing as success! It doesn’t exist. Can’t appreciate a one-bedroom apt. Return to the father by escaping/getting rid of thoughts. Jungle, lost in the imagination. Demons of the jungle…

(1:05:36) No competition in the Kingdom of Heaven.

(1:07:21) No such thing as problems.

3F Feedback

(1:07:37) Randy: The anger in the children … Do not be conformed… but transformed… (1:08:27) JLP: You have not lived until you’ve picked cotton. A white man as a master.

(1:09:31) JLP: Yearning for the father, daddy and mama and beatings.

4 BQ… Is anger part of intelligence or stupidity?

(1:10:20) Biblical Question: Omeed forgot… Others too. (1:11:47) Is anger part of intelligence or stupidity?

(1:13:47) Another man on the Prodigal Son… (1:15:03) He wanted to hit his father.

(1:15:36) Danny from England: Comparing intelligent black women to “slow” Jesse.

(1:16:53) Depends how you’re looking at it. (1:17:23) Black man: I thought it was smart. (1:17:48) JLP: I went to college for one year for ONE reason: To get a white woman. I barely got in. Gone one. Quit. He black. (1:18:30) Back to the man: I dropped and started working, and wisdom came.

(1:19:13) It’s always stupidity. (1:19:38) Rachel (1:20:16) Randy’s wife (1:20:51) Raymond: Could be intelligence … intelligence has its limits, but stupidity knows no bounds!

(1:21:30) “Activist” woman (from last week) — righteous anger, intelligence. Frivolous anger, stupidity. (1:22:09) Young lady: Stupidity (1:22:55) Christian (sp) intelligence

(1:23:47) Colin: Intelligence (1:24:15) Man distinguishes between intelligence and intuition…

(1:25:44) They’re both a way for anger to come out (1:26:35) Young woman: Stupidity

5 JLP: Anger is total stupidity

(1:27:13) JLP: Anger is total stupidity. There’s a higher level of intelligence than these educated people. Educated people are angry. Anyone who has anger is stupid. You’re stupid! Sorry.

(1:29:17) It’s stupid to be mad… You’re leaving? Real intelligence: OK, bye! No thought, no loneliness. Anger is stupid.

(1:29:55) Man agrees… It controls you. JLP: Never, ever, ever a reason to be angry. Zero.

5B Buying her flowers; Anger is evil

(1:30:55) JLP: You’ll get your wife flowers because she’s angry. Beta all the way!

(1:31:16) Man agrees: Flowers, depends why. Sorry for what I did to make her upset. Appeasing anger so you can get along with her. (1:32:31) Is anger good or evil? Not evil, there’s righteous anger… The issue with anger, if left unchecked, can lead you to do wrong… Don’t let the sun go down on your anger.

(1:33:26) Do you have anger? Do you ever get angry? Is it good at times? Anyone with anger is a murderer… The Bible… With God there’s nothing but love. Children of God don’t get angry. (1:35:28) “Don’t let the sun go down on your anger.”

(1:36:08) JLP: Before you enter the Kingdom, you must forgive.

5C Can’t go back

(1:36:30) JLP says Colin said: I can’t go back. (1:37:13) Pray without ceasing

(1:38:31) The bridge of misery, thoughts, falling away. No going back.

(1:38:46) In closing, you gotta forgive. You don’t know what righteous anger is, until you drop the false anger. Forgive your mothers! Everyone on Earth! You become like your mother: Stupid. Sorry, mothers! Meaning angry. Men act just like women when they’re angry. (1:40:33) Those nice, quiet mothers are the worst ones!

(1:41:17) You can go to church until the doors fall off, but if you don’t have love you have nothing. Drop the anger! Face your mother, shaking in your boots. …

(1:42:29) You gotta live with it, in fear, insecurity, doubt…

(1:43:29) There is no you. You’re an illusion, And you’re delusional. You think you exist and you don’t. It will die if you stay with it.

5D Wanting a “good relationship” with father? Fear

(1:44:04) Is it ego that I want a good relationship with my father? Yes. You just don’t want to resent him. Feel nervous when he calls? Answer, and face it.

(1:45:32) Fear is an illusion… No obligation to the world. Don’t owe mama, daddy, friends, wife, children… so-and-so turned on me!

(1:46:38) Got an email from woman in a terrible conflict with husband: What to do? Get out of there! Do you love your pain? Exciting to hate your husband, right ladies?

5E Love your thrills? Let ideas go

(1:47:54) Man loves his thrills. He’s Tony. Who are you? I’m a spirit in a human body. Nope! (1:49:00) In closing: Let all of your ideas go. Don’t think about God again.

(1:50:55) Our theme: Practice being present. … False guilt! Lowlifes! You’re not a sinner… When all false identities disappear, you’ll know your identity, and have perfect peace.

(1:53:11) Back to Shayan (sp) about daddy, face fear. Do the Silent Prayer..

6 New BQ… Forgiven?

(1:54:17) New BQ: Does Satan know God? No… Not sure… (1:54:59) Forgiven mother? Mother said: You gonna forgive your father too? … Men’s Forum last week…

(1:56:16) Punchie’s coffee, nickname …
