Grace Without Peace
•
Lately a lot of our talks seem somber but recently we’ve been living in some tough times, and here at Revolution we try to live life on life’s terms, but as of lately those terms are pretty somber. There is a famous quote about some of the things we’ll remember most in this life will be the silence of our friends when we needed them. We don’t want to stay silent, and we don’t want to make our friends or any loved one feel alone, like they don’t have anyone in their corner—that is for our brothers and sisters both local and abroad. All over the world. Today Jay discusses how all conflict stems from differences, the problem is that difference is the essence of humanity, so there will always be differences. Jay dives into the gospel of Matthew, as well as some letters from Paul to try and see what grace without peace looks like, and what we can do to both show each other grace, and to be peacemakers.
This talk was given on August 18, 2024 from Seattle, Washington.

Why Revolution
55:35|It’s important to talk about good Biblical scholarship. It’s a short step to align the Bible with our views rather than our views with the Bible and its teachings. We create a new gospel that doesn’t reflect what the Bible says. Is it too late for Christianity? It can feel hopeless but there is HOPE for reconciliation.

Ideology
01:02:22|Anything that keeps us from loving others needs to be destroyed. This reminds me of the phrase "Kill Your Idols" even if it's part of your religion.There's still work to do. You are loved and we love to hear from you. As always, we appreciate your comments, your support and this beautiful group of people at Revolution.

A Split Consciousness
01:01:00|For this holiday weekend, Jay provides a reminder for the consistency of love. This is a direct battle against apathy and numbness. We need to be talking about the fight for humanity and the conflict that we are constantly faced with. It’s devastating to have people be disappointed with us but we can’t give up!It can be productive and rooted in love. There’s a great section reviewing how Tillich describes indoctrination as well. If we recognize how we might have been manipulated, we can have a better chance of freeing ourselves to be able to choose love.

Better Without Christianity
01:02:46|The Bible and Christianity have been used for discrimination for most of the modern times. People are tired and it feels like people are using religion to ignore or, worse, support the horrors that are happening around the world. In Matthew 7, we can easily misinterpret "do not throw your pearls before swine" as an excuse to disregard others, instead of loving others and being able to argue well. How does hate represent the teachings of Jesus? Let's have an honest look and determine if the religion of Christians has made things worst, while missing point.
