Humans Are Divine – Details, episodes & analysis

In Part Two, we cover Romans 6:15-8:14. What activates sin and selfishness in our lives? If effortlessly living in love, is a gift of God’s grace, what part do we play, if any? Is humanity inherently bad? Is there condemnation for certain kinds of people, even Christians? We answer these questions, and more. That last one is a resounding YES by the way.

The ancient text of Romans says, that just like the resurrected Jesus, human beings also, “should live a new kind of life,” the same kind of life that he lives, but that doesn’t mean we are to imitate him in our own energy. It means that we are to live with God supplied healthy thoughts, wholesome desires, beneficial actions, and life-giving habits, meaning He is the wind, and we are the ship and the sails. Imagine never having to fight sin, negative emotional cycles, toxic relational patterns, and the like. Imagine all that happening “by itself,” effortlessly. That’s why good character is called “the fruit of the Spirit,” not “the results of (insert your name here).” This is the life intended for us by The Triune God, and in this series, we will look at how to switch, from the old, do-it-yourself lifestyle, to the new, God-does-it-through you lifestyle. Let this be the teaching that forever changes how you mirror your divine identity. No more you, but only Jesus in you!

Jory and I go deep, and talk about the sometimes painful, dark moments we go through in our meditative journey (and in life), as the isolated, separate self and impermanent "realities" that we cling to, come tumbling down and show themselves for what they are: illusions that can give us no true and lasting contentment, security and happiness. We speak mainly from the Christian-mystic-framework, but sprinkle in insights from all over.

Continuing my series on the works of the first official Zen Master, Bodhidharma (5th century). We are in the middle of his talk, Bloodstream Sermon. I comment on karma's relationship to satori, your untouchable nature, non-personal awareness and more. This is not a dense, academic, boring "lecture." It's a person buzzed off the Dharma sharing his ecstatic thoughts and musings. This might be my favorite series so far, and I'm not just saying that to hype it up. I'm getting inspired and enlivened by it. I believe you will too!

Continuing my series on the works of the first official Zen Master, Bodhidharma (5th century). Hear my thoughts on the start of his talk, Bloodstream Sermon. My comments touch on seeing who you really are, transcendence, being connected to people who have themselves "woken up," and more. This is not a dense, academic, boring "lecture." It's a person buzzed off the Dharma sharing his ecstatic thoughts and musings. This might be my favorite series so far, and I'm not just saying that to hype it up.

The core of your "you" has not been touched, influenced or conditioned by your particular life upbringing. It is infinite in knowledge, wisdom and counsel. It wants to communicate direction to you, to lead you to your best life. Join in on Jesse's Zoom class as he goes deep into how to tune in to the spirit guide that is inside of all us. You don't have to light a candle, buy a crystal or draw a pentagram to access the God within. No special blessing is needed. You take this with you, on the go, in the midst of your ordinary, daily life. Learn how to take life a little easier, by trusting the interior, higher power, that has been with you since you were born. You are human, but you are also divine. This is a lesson for the divine "part" of you, but honestly, is there a difference?
