Jesus had Peter had quite a go round on this:
'Peter, do you Love (agape) me?"
"I love you like you were my brother (filios)."
Hmmmmm. "PETER, DO YOU LOVE ME?!?!?!?"
Jesus had to ask twice more.
Imagine if we eliminated words like cyanide,
nitrogen, carbon dioxide... and only had the
word Oxygen for all gas. That would be a problem.
Well we have a MUCH bigger problem. We only,
CARELESSLY use the world Love for:
Universal Love
Lust
Sex
Desire
Friendship
Acquantainceship
One night stands
Pleasurableness
Blood relationships
Romance
Reciprocal relations.....
Love is Universal OR IT IS NOT LOVE.

The ENTIRE point of the Gospels / Jesus life: One Father, we're ALL ONE FAMILY, NO DOUBLE STANDARDS, GET ON WITH IT.
The ENTIRE point of the Gospels / Jesus life:
One Father, we're ALL ONE FAMILY,
NO DOUBLE STANDARDS,, EVER, GET ON WITH IT.
We killed Jesus for telling us this. We hated Him for it.
And for 1900 years we've been killing ourselves to
make anything and everything else BESIDE THIS
the point of His teachings. And now it is almost too
late for us to get it right.
It is up to me. It is up to YOU now. We are the last chance.
CJ - I GIVE YOU TWO COMMANDMENTS:
1. Devote your life entirely to the will of Our One Father
2. Devote your life entirely to the Least of These in
Our One global Family - ESPECIALLY the poor,
ESPECIALLY the enemy, ESPECIALLY the foreigner.
There is NOTHING BESIDES THIS in Jesus' Teachings.
Everything else was embellishment, clarification,
emphasis and support.
This is the Law and the Prophets.
Embracing THIS, THAT WE ARE ALL IMMEDIATE FAMILY,
THAT WE ARE ALL BROTHERS AND SISTERS...
THIS ALONE IS SALVATION -
A. PERSONAL SALVATION from a Joyless, Meaningless Life,
B. COLLECTIVE SALVATION from Global Civilization Collapse.
THERE IS NO OTHER SALVATION. EVER. PERIOD.
GOOD NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
JOYFUL NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shari - is She why I'm here? OMG
What an incredibly sacred encounter. Half an hour maybe.
She's 19ish maybe? Today she returns to China from her
6 months exchange program.
Stunning. Kind. Thoughtful. Open. Informed. Wondering.
Mature. Concerned for the world. Inquisitive. Smart. Educated....
She asked it all. She grasped it all - that I have to offer.
We discussed the various human rights movements. She
totally gets - she emphasizes to me - the determination
of the Chinese Gov. to prevent dissent. She sees the
impossibility of resisting - trying to improve human rights
in China. BUT SHE SEES THAT WISELY, NOT RECKLESSLY,
MAKING THE ATTEMPT IS LIFE ITSELF.
A really fun, brief part of our exchange - as she and I were
sitting cross legged and talking, a group of Chinese
tourists came and went - and Shari said - "Do you care
about what people say about you?" Well, I told her
that everyone that comes through the park is my
brother or sister, but that most are waking dead, so dead
that I know that either they will not "see" me, or they'll think
I'm an idiot, or whatever. But the 1 in 10,000 like her -
she is why I am here. "Well," she said, "the Chinese
that were just here were saying that you work for the
government, a fake, to show that people in the US have
the ability to bring about change, when they really don't."
We both laughed heartily. Knowing it is true, if we
continue to let it be.
I worry for her.
She will not forget our encounter.
She now lives in me, and I in her.
"I'm going to go back to China and try to make it a
better place," she said with unmistakable clarity.
We both are changed.
OMG.

King, Gandhi, Jesus MOST REVILED THE "TALKERS" / HYPOCRITE / FAKE / COUNTERFEIT.
Difference tween Real and Hypocrite / Fake / Counterfeit is that between
DOERS and TALKERS (risk-little activists, writers, Bloggers, Facebookers, YouTubers....)
Personal Responsibility and Blame / Excuses / Scapegoat / Persecute.
The REAL ones are folks of SCRUPULOUS PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY.

The Stranger, the Poor, the Sick, the Foreigner are easiest to Save.
