00:00:09
we know in the Old Testament that hell
00:00:11
is a place Bible said the Nations that
00:00:13
forget God shall be turned into hell we
00:00:15
know that it is an eternity of fire and
00:00:18
brimstone flames of fire a furnace of
00:00:22
fire a fiery hell a burning wind a
00:00:26
judgment of Fire
00:00:29
[Music]
00:00:31
warning some may find this
00:00:33
representation of Hell challenging or
00:00:35
even offensive if your understanding of
00:00:37
hell is entirely literal and based on
00:00:39
imagery this video may not be for you
00:00:42
for those who prefer to accept that
00:00:44
visual imagery present in ancient
00:00:45
spiritual text is used as a gateway to
00:00:47
hire truths this video is intended to
00:00:50
suit your intellectual
00:00:52
style all right boys and girls today
00:00:55
what we are going to be doing is we are
00:00:56
going to one we're going to show that
00:00:59
the common idea of hell is a
00:01:02
misconception and how we're going to do
00:01:04
that is we're going to describe and
00:01:07
Define the Trinity we're going to take
00:01:09
the Trinity and we're going to ground it
00:01:12
in reality in such a way that you to
00:01:15
deny it would be to deny reality and
00:01:17
language itself so those are kind of
00:01:19
hard things to do being as that we use
00:01:21
language and we exist in reality so from
00:01:23
there what we're going to do is we're
00:01:25
going to prove that all being flows
00:01:28
through the Trinity and and to not
00:01:31
participate in being is to exist outside
00:01:33
the Trinity and therefore hell is a
00:01:36
state of non-being where it's it's
00:01:39
incredibly painful it's all those other
00:01:41
things that we typically think of H as
00:01:43
but it's not this like dungeon you know
00:01:45
where you get whipped by demons and they
00:01:47
do all kinds of crazy nasty stuff to you
00:01:50
so bear with me there's a lot of
00:01:52
groundwork as you can see I kind of feel
00:01:53
like I'm in that uh always sunny and
00:01:55
Phil Philadelphia meme where he's like
00:01:57
has smoking a cigarette and he has all
00:01:59
these connected everywhere but I did
00:02:01
this beforehand so you don't have to
00:02:03
wait for me to draw everything out so
00:02:06
that said let us begin okay so in our
00:02:09
reality something that has puzzled
00:02:11
religions philosophies people from all
00:02:14
over the world is how the universe seems
00:02:18
to be one and also many and this has led
00:02:23
people to believe that it is either one
00:02:25
or it is many but it's not both but what
00:02:30
Christian theology philosophy whatever
00:02:33
does is it actually solves this problem
00:02:36
of one in many with the Trinity and it
00:02:39
comes out to very coherently as to why
00:02:41
reality seems to be one and both many so
00:02:45
in our reality we
00:02:47
have everything that exists within
00:02:49
reality and there's Unity within that
00:02:51
because as we look at reality we look at
00:02:53
nature we look at all these things it
00:02:54
appears to be one entity because
00:02:56
everything kind of flows into each other
00:02:58
in the circle of life life um but within
00:03:01
that circle of life we also have
00:03:03
distinction so how can this be and to
00:03:06
get to the nitty-gritty of that question
00:03:08
there is how we're going to eventually
00:03:10
come down on the other side of this
00:03:11
board which you cannot see is what
00:03:14
exactly hell is and how it is what it is
00:03:17
which I already told you before is a
00:03:18
state of mind being so it wouldn't be
00:03:21
the first time you've heard I'd imagine
00:03:24
that the Trinity consists of father son
00:03:27
and
00:03:28
spirit um um the father contains all
00:03:32
being within himself he is the source of
00:03:35
everything this is why he is the source
00:03:37
of the divine nature because all divine
00:03:39
nature all n everything exists in him
00:03:43
first so from the father he's a person
00:03:48
we'll get into that later he has an
00:03:50
intellect from the father's gaze upon
00:03:55
himself he actually begets a second
00:03:59
person and how is that if everything
00:04:02
already exists in the father all
00:04:03
knowledge all everything his personhood
00:04:05
everything and he has perfect knowledge
00:04:07
of who he is by consequence that
00:04:11
generates another person that would be
00:04:13
completely identical to the father
00:04:16
himself which is why we say Jesus is the
00:04:18
image of the father and we have all
00:04:19
kinds of other verses saying that in
00:04:21
Jesus the fullness of the D he dwells
00:04:23
and all this is because the son is the
00:04:26
Father's Act of introspection it is him
00:04:29
looking at him self completely clearly
00:04:31
and because there's nothing outside of
00:04:32
the father there's no impurities that
00:04:35
kind of distort His image of himself so
00:04:37
he gets a full and clear image of
00:04:39
himself and we call that image the
00:04:41
sun
00:04:43
however how do we explain the spirit so
00:04:47
at the moment that the Father Knows
00:04:50
himself he generates a relationship
00:04:53
between himself and the image of them of
00:04:55
of himself and that is a fatherly
00:04:58
relation however at the same time the
00:05:02
spirit of the or not the spirit of the
00:05:03
Sun but the son is begotten there is
00:05:06
also a fial relationship back to the
00:05:09
father so this relationship isn't a
00:05:13
fatherly relationship or a fial
00:05:15
relationship but it's a relationship of
00:05:16
unity so these
00:05:19
two um persons within the Trinity
00:05:22
actually form a whole new person by
00:05:25
their
00:05:26
Unity so there's a lot of um hubub about
00:05:29
this I'm sure you guys are familiar with
00:05:31
the Philly Oakway but we maintain that
00:05:35
the source of the spirit is in the
00:05:37
father because everything is in the
00:05:38
father if you say that then you're just
00:05:40
denying that we have a trinity and
00:05:41
you're going to say we have end up
00:05:42
saying we have three Gods but as I said
00:05:45
the moment the son is begotten there is
00:05:48
a a a spiritual relation between Father
00:05:51
and Son and that relation goes into the
00:05:54
sun rests in the Sun but also comes back
00:05:57
to the father there is a Unity between
00:05:59
the two and the unity of the two persons
00:06:01
creates a third person and this analog
00:06:04
is going to seem super crude I got
00:06:06
another one that's going to seem a
00:06:06
little bit better but imagine refer back
00:06:09
to the cartoon the Transformers so you
00:06:12
have one Transformer you have another
00:06:13
Transformers typically these characters
00:06:16
combined together and they make a whole
00:06:17
new entity so think of the Holy Spirit
00:06:20
kind of as that whole new entity it is
00:06:22
its own person that which is the result
00:06:25
of the other two persons in a spirit of
00:06:28
unity also another way you can prove
00:06:30
that this is the way it is is that we
00:06:34
believe that man is made in the image of
00:06:36
God so when man and woman come
00:06:40
together man sends his Spirit or his
00:06:43
seed into the
00:06:45
woman the source of life is entirely in
00:06:48
the man however it rests in the woman
00:06:52
and the woman generates the spirit the
00:06:55
child of the father however the child is
00:06:58
not only the father the child is the
00:07:00
father of the mother and father so
00:07:03
that's another analogy to kind of look
00:07:04
at this um philio
00:07:09
[Music]
00:07:11
perspective okay so now we have a
00:07:15
working definition of what the Trinity
00:07:17
is we have
00:07:18
allbe we have distinction whereas the
00:07:21
father looks at himself and sees himself
00:07:23
as distinct and also complete and then
00:07:26
we have a relationship between the two
00:07:28
which is the spirit I'm going to show
00:07:30
you that based off of this definition of
00:07:32
the Trinity which is the definition of
00:07:34
the
00:07:36
Trinity you cannot know anything without
00:07:39
working through a trinitarian framework
00:07:42
so we're going to establish a completely
00:07:44
trinitarian epistemology here and how
00:07:46
I'm going to do that is by doing this
00:07:48
okay so we have a trinitarian language
00:07:51
let's take a very
00:07:53
basic sentence the rabbit eats the grass
00:07:57
okay so in all complete sentences we
00:08:01
have a subject we have an object and we
00:08:05
have how that subject and that object
00:08:08
relate to one another so
00:08:11
oops if
00:08:13
I take the eating
00:08:16
away if it just says let's say the
00:08:18
rabbit the grass we have two
00:08:21
diametrically
00:08:23
opposed um entities here that makes no
00:08:25
sense because we have no idea how they
00:08:27
relate to one another so now we just
00:08:28
have rabbit and grass and we don't know
00:08:30
what to do with it so in the spirit of
00:08:33
unity we connect the two through What's
00:08:35
called the Cula which is an action a a
00:08:37
relating action so we could say that the
00:08:39
rabbit eats the grass we can say the
00:08:41
rabbit does anything with the grass
00:08:43
however but this relation is a spirit in
00:08:46
himself which is why we have a spirit of
00:08:48
action we have a spirit of anger a
00:08:50
spirit of pride a spirit of humility all
00:08:52
the those types of things so the spirit
00:08:56
connects what we're speaking about and
00:08:58
how it relates to the rest of reality
00:09:02
itself so here's where it starts to get
00:09:04
crazy get
00:09:06
crazy the rabbit is a subject so if he
00:09:09
is a distinction an object we mean by a
00:09:12
part of objective reality so a grass
00:09:14
grass is also a distinction within
00:09:16
objective reality but we have one
00:09:18
individual who we're trying to learn
00:09:20
about the rabbit eats the grass so the
00:09:24
subject knows the object and we refer
00:09:28
back to here
00:09:30
the only one that knows the father
00:09:32
perfectly is his own subject it's his
00:09:35
own introspection so we learn about
00:09:37
objective reality through distinction
00:09:40
and
00:09:41
subjectivity and this would give
00:09:43
Testament to the verses that we hear
00:09:45
about this type of trinitarian
00:09:47
epistemology which is no one knows the
00:09:49
father except through the son we can't
00:09:51
know anything about grassless we know
00:09:54
how something else in objective reality
00:09:57
relates to it we can't have direct
00:09:59
knowledge things that's not how our mind
00:10:00
work we work through distinction and
00:10:02
being is that man is made in the image
00:10:05
of God this would make sense so this is
00:10:07
an a proof that all knowledge flows
00:10:11
through the trinitarian formula of
00:10:13
Distinction relating to the rest of
00:10:15
being so what does this have to do with
00:10:17
hell it shows that all cooperation in
00:10:23
being
00:10:24
is made possible by the Trinity our
00:10:27
entire ontology itself is a trinitarian
00:10:30
ontology if we refer back to this we can
00:10:33
actually switch because the father also
00:10:34
knows himself to the son this Father
00:10:36
Knows through the Son and the son knows
00:10:37
through the father we can switch this
00:10:40
the grass can become the subject or the
00:10:43
the subject can be knowing about
00:10:44
distinction within how a relation to
00:10:47
itself the rabbit knows the grass by
00:10:50
eating it this is completely Converse
00:10:52
which would also affirm our trinitarian
00:10:54
knowledge of Father and Son through the
00:10:56
spirit through the relation which gives
00:10:58
text to the other part of this verse
00:11:00
which is no one knows the son except the
00:11:03
Father which can be translated into more
00:11:06
common nms is no one knows distinction
00:11:09
except through absolute being no one
00:11:11
knows absolute being except through
00:11:12
distinction this is a circular pattern
00:11:15
and most circular P patterns don't work
00:11:18
but for some reason all reality works
00:11:20
because language is just a symbol of
00:11:22
reality that we use to communicate it
00:11:24
with other people so this is kind of
00:11:27
like a lot of people like no this
00:11:29
reality is reality and not just the way
00:11:31
it is that's not that doesn't make sense
00:11:33
you got to explain why it is the way it
00:11:35
is and it kind of reminds me of of you
00:11:37
know a fish is in a bowl swimming around
00:11:40
in water or a fish is in the ocean does
00:11:42
the fish know it's swimming in water
00:11:43
does it know does the fish know that
00:11:45
water is sustaining its very existence
00:11:47
no but this formula of reality of
00:11:51
epistemology of
00:11:52
anything is sustaining our very
00:11:55
existence so to to uh so we got the
00:11:58
father knows knows himself through the
00:12:00
sun we throw a little Uno reverse card
00:12:01
in there and the Father Knows uh or the
00:12:03
son knows himself through the
00:12:05
Father the subject knows the object
00:12:08
relationally and vice versa all being
00:12:12
pervades to us as a Divine unity and all
00:12:15
knowing flows through Divine knowing
00:12:18
which is the very eternity itself so now
00:12:20
we're starting to get into the good
00:12:21
stuff the nitty-gritty so we're in
00:12:23
establishing reality is the Way It Is by
00:12:26
means of the trinity
00:12:29
so how does
00:12:33
this uh I don't want to say conceptual
00:12:35
existence because that me it's like not
00:12:37
real how does this Living Concept get
00:12:40
down to us to a point where we can get
00:12:42
there and and participate into
00:12:44
it I'm going to move this over here a
00:12:46
little bit so you can
00:12:49
see all right so we got a better angle
00:12:52
okay so as we said before the
00:12:54
father looks at himself in a mirror he
00:12:58
gets a perfect representation of himself
00:13:00
and that is the
00:13:02
sun um it is a complete
00:13:05
image aquinus says in the sua that the
00:13:07
son is the concept of the father not as
00:13:10
a concept in our minds because this is
00:13:12
an analogical knowing it's not the exact
00:13:15
same but it's similar but he knows them
00:13:17
as a concept as a living word as a
00:13:20
person it is a second
00:13:22
person and from knowing himself he knows
00:13:26
everything within himself so he first
00:13:28
knows himself perfectly and then this
00:13:30
the whole thing which that's extremely
00:13:32
hard to understand with our temporal way
00:13:35
of knowing but he knows everything about
00:13:36
himself in one instant and this is
00:13:38
comprised in the sun which would give
00:13:41
Testament to Romans 11:36 for from him
00:13:44
through him and to him are all things so
00:13:47
everything flows from the
00:13:50
Sun
00:13:52
so how do we know that this isn't just a
00:13:57
force of reality but these three are
00:14:00
actually thinking persons well here's
00:14:04
why because there's no logical reason
00:14:09
why we have something something meaning
00:14:11
physical creation rather than nothing
00:14:13
there it we don't have to have it
00:14:15
everything could just ex exist in this
00:14:18
you know uh realm of form so to speak
00:14:20
where it's
00:14:22
conceptual again I don't want to say
00:14:24
it's conceptual as it's like it wouldn't
00:14:25
be real but it exists in a different
00:14:27
realm why does it also exist in this
00:14:29
realm well no reason free choice that's
00:14:32
the only reason these three persons made
00:14:36
the choice to disseminate it and
00:14:38
instantiate it into an a temporal
00:14:42
realm it's important to say that God
00:14:45
isn't so good this is a a heresy a kind
00:14:47
of neoplatonic heresy that God is just
00:14:49
so good that he would just create every
00:14:51
single time but that takes away his Free
00:14:53
Will turns them into a mechanism and now
00:14:55
we can't have a relationship with them
00:14:56
which is why Aristotle Plato SOC all
00:14:59
kind of
00:15:00
thought that the ultimate being the
00:15:04
one is God yes but he's more of a
00:15:06
mechanism than an actual
00:15:08
person so we have this free choice this
00:15:11
Obstacle of free choice is overcome by
00:15:14
the free Act of
00:15:16
Creation so all everything in creation
00:15:20
is an instantiation of the Trinity
00:15:22
within space and
00:15:24
time how might you ask God can just
00:15:27
throw himself that doesn't how could can
00:15:29
how could material contain him well the
00:15:32
way it works and we can get different
00:15:34
parts of the Trinity throughout because
00:15:36
God can't be divided right well if you
00:15:39
if you create a temporal realm where
00:15:40
matter is changing it's like God
00:15:43
stamping His Image as the world is
00:15:45
moving and it's creating different
00:15:46
things that all contain His
00:15:49
Image and it's established in the
00:15:51
hierarchy we we the this is a divine
00:15:53
order in itself and you can see that in
00:15:56
reality if we didn't have a hierarchy or
00:15:59
any like seemingly working system within
00:16:02
reality I'd probably believe that we
00:16:04
didn't have a God because but we do have
00:16:06
order so where does this order come from
00:16:08
from this trinitarian way of
00:16:10
knowing
00:16:11
so we know this theologically through
00:16:17
Revelation from Romans 1:0 for since the
00:16:20
creation of the world God's invisible
00:16:22
qualities dot dot dot and divine nature
00:16:24
have been seen clearly in the things
00:16:26
made so we know that all creation
00:16:30
testifies to the being of God because
00:16:32
God has nothing else to work with he's
00:16:33
just working with himself which is
00:16:35
really good for us um but that Spirit of
00:16:40
relation plays a huge part in this
00:16:42
because it is through the spirit that
00:16:45
these things are made recall in Genesis
00:16:48
the spirit hovers over the waters before
00:16:50
everything is created because there's no
00:16:52
relation which with what has not been
00:16:55
made yet so it is made through the
00:16:59
spirit God's Unity he's he's shooting
00:17:02
creation forth and maintaining it within
00:17:04
himself by way of the spirit which is
00:17:06
why we say in the Creed that the spirit
00:17:07
is the Lord and Giver of
00:17:09
Life St Max now we're starting getting
00:17:12
into man's participation in all this and
00:17:13
and the hell stuff so please bear with
00:17:15
me I know this is a lot to cover but you
00:17:16
just came here for how wi is held the
00:17:19
way it is and we're getting all this so
00:17:20
just bear with me um the Trinity is the
00:17:24
archetype of all being as all things are
00:17:26
called to Unity distinction and particip
00:17:29
a they perfect the life of God that's
00:17:31
Maximus the Confessor in his
00:17:33
ambigua so Top This hierarchy as we said
00:17:36
before is man because he is the very
00:17:38
image of God he is the god of creation
00:17:41
small G as Jesus refers to the Old
00:17:45
Testament and saying that ye are Gods
00:17:47
small G why are we Gods small G because
00:17:50
we have this imprint in our Noggin and
00:17:54
we Steward Creation with it we are the
00:17:58
link between God and the rest of
00:18:00
creation he made it that way because he
00:18:02
wants us to participate in being and if
00:18:04
we don't it's not being we just hell so
00:18:07
there you go so in man why is he a
00:18:10
complete image of the father because or
00:18:12
sorry he the father too but why is he
00:18:14
complete image of God
00:18:18
godhead because man has a psyche in that
00:18:21
psyche he has a
00:18:24
self son he is distinct he also has a
00:18:28
complete being which informs himself
00:18:31
father and he also has a Unity of the
00:18:33
two which is his
00:18:36
spirit so in the psyche of man we have a
00:18:39
complete image of God and then now we're
00:18:41
going to flip this board over and I'm
00:18:42
going to explain how man relates to
00:18:45
Creation in a Godlike way and if he
00:18:47
doesn't he ends up not existing in a
00:18:50
different way than what you're assuming
00:18:52
not existing means
00:18:54
[Music]
00:19:04
oh perfect place okay so as I said
00:19:07
before God informs creation through
00:19:11
relationship of the spirit which is mass
00:19:14
or not mass imitated through his own
00:19:17
life which is in a masculine feminine
00:19:19
Dynamic what does that
00:19:21
mean God is ultimately masculine
00:19:24
creation is feminine and it is
00:19:27
fertile God places his spirit in
00:19:30
creation and it
00:19:32
births him himself in in analogy to
00:19:35
himself so all creation we know this
00:19:39
follows a masculine feminine there is a
00:19:41
source a receptor and then a new
00:19:44
creation that's the whole essence of
00:19:46
everything really we can do um show this
00:19:49
spiritually we got the father son Spirit
00:19:52
we got the son the church the mystical
00:19:54
body me my wife my children you it
00:19:59
this is undeniable that that is the form
00:20:02
of relationship within reality so what
00:20:05
exactly does this mean we are feminine
00:20:10
because we not in a in a 2025 way we are
00:20:15
feminine in that we receive we our
00:20:19
Spirits are it's like a a womb and God
00:20:22
places his fertility in us and changes
00:20:25
us into a new a new being so God this is
00:20:29
God informs man and man informs the rest
00:20:34
of creation through by way of the image
00:20:37
of God present in his
00:20:38
psyche God send his Spirit into man man
00:20:41
spends sends his divin Spirit into
00:20:44
creation God takes or man takes the
00:20:46
spirit of creation and sends it back to
00:20:48
God this is how everything is kept in
00:20:52
the godhead which is
00:20:54
eternal Eternal eternal life we through
00:20:58
through God's power especially through
00:21:00
the Incarnation help help God to help he
00:21:04
doesn't need our help we
00:21:06
participate in deifying creation back
00:21:09
into an
00:21:11
eschatological realm which is eternity
00:21:14
which is the new heavens and the new
00:21:16
Earth here's where we start to have a
00:21:19
potential for problems man's substance
00:21:22
is twofold he has an inner man which is
00:21:26
informed by God like it um let's say
00:21:28
dogs cats everything they have a nature
00:21:31
and that is directly informed by God
00:21:32
they do not have free will which is why
00:21:33
you don't have dogs acting like Buffalo
00:21:36
or buffalos acting like rocks because
00:21:38
they don't have a free choice they're
00:21:39
just directly informed through uh the
00:21:43
divine nature and they just act that way
00:21:44
because they don't have they're not
00:21:46
rational beings like we are but
00:21:48
conversely we have people acting like
00:21:51
cats we have people acting like other
00:21:53
stuff and it's it's weird and it's
00:21:56
unfortunate but because of our rational
00:21:57
nature that's what that allows for so
00:22:00
the inner and and man is informed
00:22:03
directly by God and His outer man is
00:22:05
deformed direct informed directly by the
00:22:08
inner man so it changes our entire being
00:22:10
starting from our inside and that um
00:22:12
encompasses our
00:22:16
outside and through the spirit of unity
00:22:20
between the two when we when the two are
00:22:22
unified by the spirit of God and our
00:22:24
spirit we get um assumed into that
00:22:28
divine
00:22:29
ontology of Heaven of salvation of all
00:22:32
these different things which Romans 8:16
00:22:35
testifies this that the spirit testifies
00:22:37
with our spirit it's not just this God
00:22:41
grabbing us which you know some
00:22:43
determinist calvinist would say that
00:22:45
there's irresistible Grace our spirit
00:22:47
needs to cooperate with that spirit
00:22:49
because we it is a free choice just as
00:22:51
God made creation freely we creation
00:22:54
needs to choose God freely because if
00:22:56
not then we wouldn't be in the image of
00:22:57
God in the first place this would just
00:22:59
be a big joke a big simulation a big
00:23:01
video game where no one has a
00:23:03
choice our spirit aligns with God's
00:23:05
ensuring our existence in the Divine
00:23:07
ontology this is particip
00:23:11
participatory everything in scripture or
00:23:13
in the New Testament um alludes to the
00:23:16
fact that there is a Divine economy we
00:23:18
are given we do we we bear fruit and we
00:23:22
give that fruit back to God it's the
00:23:24
whole essence of sacrifice we are giving
00:23:26
back this ensures a daisy chain of Sal
00:23:28
here that everything we receive from God
00:23:31
we thank him and we give it back to him
00:23:34
that is how we survive in the ecosystem
00:23:38
so to speak of
00:23:40
reality so how does this translate to
00:23:43
eternal life after we die move this baby
00:23:48
again all
00:23:51
right because of man's free choice he
00:23:53
doesn't have to listen to the spirit and
00:23:56
he can disconnect himself from God if
00:23:58
man disconnects himself from God he is
00:24:00
forced to generate a false self because
00:24:02
he's no longer being informed by God
00:24:04
with what he finds in creation food
00:24:07
wealth sex Sports whatever so he says I
00:24:10
don't want any part of this I don't want
00:24:11
to participate in what God has planned
00:24:14
in um in in being in reality in ontology
00:24:17
I'm going to make my own
00:24:20
being and where does man go to fill this
00:24:23
he can't access anything higher because
00:24:24
he's not connected to the logos which is
00:24:26
the source of all creation he is for
00:24:29
to pick things within creation and fill
00:24:31
himself with them and then that becomes
00:24:32
his identity so what do we got we got
00:24:35
beer we got a busty stick figure we got
00:24:37
a dollar sign a football whatever
00:24:39
whatever he finds that that he can uh
00:24:42
try to fulfill himself with becomes his
00:24:45
new identity however
00:24:48
conversely we accept the spirit our
00:24:51
psyche gets filled with Heavenly stuff
00:24:54
because it's being informed directly by
00:24:57
eternal absolute truth so we form our
00:25:00
psyche based on what God is telling us
00:25:02
not what we are interpreting um reality
00:25:05
to be through
00:25:08
creation and we die so what happens when
00:25:11
we die when we get both of these things
00:25:14
as I said all
00:25:16
creation exists in Christ when we die we
00:25:20
don't have our physical limitations of
00:25:22
senses and interpretations we are just
00:25:25
hit in the face with reality as it is in
00:25:27
the person of Christ
00:25:28
we see
00:25:30
Christ our true self is in Christ it's
00:25:33
what he's been trying to tell us we are
00:25:35
our entire Liv so that we can cooperate
00:25:37
with it and enjoy eternity with
00:25:39
it if we don't see that if
00:25:42
we
00:25:44
um you there there's two options here if
00:25:47
we just refuse it altogether you know
00:25:49
where that goes but if we accept it the
00:25:51
scripture talks about
00:25:53
this there's a foundation in all man
00:25:55
which is the the self and we build a top
00:25:58
that salvation Paul says that he allows
00:26:00
Christ to build on it however if the man
00:26:02
built what Christ built with is gold
00:26:05
silver all that stuff all these Heavenly
00:26:08
things however if we build with material
00:26:11
things sex beer all that
00:26:14
stuff in the transition to Eternity
00:26:18
those things get burned away because
00:26:19
they have no um being in the absolute
00:26:23
ontology so we suffer loss as Paul says
00:26:27
however if we build with eternal things
00:26:29
we allow Christ to build with eternal
00:26:30
things it that that building that
00:26:32
dwelling into eternity that dwelling our
00:26:35
mind our souls everything carries on
00:26:38
into the next
00:26:40
life however as I
00:26:44
said um if you choose not to you're
00:26:48
stuck with that but being as that we
00:26:51
have an immortal
00:26:53
Spirit what that Spirit creates then the
00:26:57
spirit can create
00:26:58
this is why people you see someone crazy
00:27:01
like oh they're just living in their own
00:27:02
reality well there's only one reality so
00:27:04
what reality do they have a fabricated
00:27:07
one and that's exactly what hell is it
00:27:11
is a
00:27:13
refusal of real being of real reality
00:27:16
and a decision to live in a
00:27:20
self-fabricated reality and because we
00:27:23
can't make sense of anything we can't
00:27:25
build a successful reality cuz there's
00:27:27
only one which has already been built
00:27:30
eternally it's torture it's Eternal
00:27:34
conscious torment because nothing we can
00:27:37
come up with could possibly be
00:27:39
functional in the way that actual
00:27:42
reality is especially Eternal
00:27:46
reality so what happens
00:27:49
if you do want to cooperate with God but
00:27:54
you have built a lot of straw it's a
00:27:56
foundation of straw a structure of straw
00:27:59
and all these perishable things upon
00:28:01
that Foundation which got us L you will
00:28:03
it'll be burned away because you'll see
00:28:05
face to face what you were supposed to
00:28:07
be and you will suffer loss but
00:28:09
ultimately you will be saved as though
00:28:11
by fire that's exactly what that whole
00:28:13
paragraph Paul is talking about is it's
00:28:15
it's a purification process now you say
00:28:18
uh Purgatory isn't real all all the
00:28:21
Catholic Church says Purgatory is is a a
00:28:24
process of purification From Here to
00:28:26
Eternity that could take many forms we
00:28:28
don't know what it is
00:28:29
but if you're not perfect now but you
00:28:32
will be in perfect heaven by logical
00:28:34
induction there would have to be some
00:28:36
type of process of purification so we're
00:28:39
in hell this is the the whole thing and
00:28:41
I know we're going to spend about 5
00:28:43
minutes on a 30 minute long video
00:28:45
getting to what the actual topic of the
00:28:47
video is but like I said all this
00:28:48
groundwork is how we get there
00:28:51
so we have a Heavenly ontology your true
00:28:55
self is within this heavenly ontology
00:28:57
you decide to choose the false self so
00:28:59
therefore you are out of it and you just
00:29:01
get yeed into nonbeing because this is
00:29:04
being this is actually
00:29:06
relational um communion with god with
00:29:10
everyone else all that stuff
00:29:12
so here is one of my big problems with
00:29:15
why I couldn't see universalism as not
00:29:17
being the case what happens to that true
00:29:19
self that's in God does God just miss
00:29:22
out on that like oh he could have been
00:29:24
great no this is even it's it's pretty
00:29:29
sad
00:29:30
actually he just gives what you were
00:29:33
supposed to accomplish what you were
00:29:34
supposed to be and adds that on top of
00:29:36
someone else look at Judas Judas was a
00:29:38
chosen one he was an
00:29:40
apostle he chose not to participate in
00:29:44
what he was
00:29:45
revealed and who took his spot Mias Mias
00:29:49
got all the goods that Judas was
00:29:50
supposed to be God is not going to miss
00:29:52
out on what his plan is he's going to
00:29:54
accomplish it one way or another and the
00:29:56
way that happens if you choose not to
00:29:58
participate he'll just give it to
00:29:59
somebody else so in
00:30:02
essence Gregory of Nissa says only what
00:30:05
is touched by God can exist
00:30:08
eternally this torment of hell is the
00:30:14
dysfunction Insanity that you have
00:30:17
allowed to perpetuate in your mind and
00:30:20
your choice to continue to perpetuate it
00:30:24
that is very tormenting imagine hell not
00:30:27
as a medil dungeon but as a 6x6 room
00:30:31
covered in soot and you're in a straight
00:30:33
jacket for eternity and you don't know
00:30:36
the difference I would prefer the
00:30:38
medieval Dungeon Because at least in the
00:30:40
dungeon you can kind of have some aspect
00:30:42
of like oh God is still good but I just
00:30:44
kind of messed up and I'm here now and
00:30:46
this sucks you don't know you are in
00:30:49
your own hell for eternity and you're
00:30:51
you are on the outer dark darkness
00:30:53
scripture says that those who who get
00:30:55
thrown into heaven will be upon the
00:30:56
outer Darkness what is that mean the
00:30:59
only way you're being sustained in any
00:31:02
sense at all it's not even a meaningful
00:31:04
sense because you're not participating
00:31:05
with the rest of
00:31:06
reality is that you just exist your
00:31:08
spirit is just maintained because God
00:31:10
can't forget about you because that's
00:31:12
not in his nature that
00:31:14
that potential is just being yeed into
00:31:18
eternity in self-hatred and its own
00:31:21
existence reminds it of God and makes it
00:31:23
hate him even more and all this this
00:31:25
different stuff it's just I prefer the
00:31:28
dungeon but anyway I hope you guys like
00:31:31
that I hope um you didn't get too bored
00:31:33
with all of our groundwork that we lated
00:31:34
but that is actually the most fun for
00:31:35
for me CU like hell sucks when no one
00:31:37
wants to go there but how do we get the
00:31:38
good stuff and that's how we get the
00:31:39
good stuff is you notice or you realize
00:31:42
rather that reality is a trinity and the
00:31:45
way you continue on in that Eternal
00:31:48
absolute state of Truth is participating
00:31:50
in that Trinity so thanks so much um
00:31:53
hope you enjoyed keep seeing the truth
