"God prospers through our courage when man faces the law of the land." TRANSCRIPT
Uh, welcome to another episode of The Chronic Christian with your host, John Ralph Tachiro. My pastor gave me a new thing to look at in the Bible. We're looking at, um, John, the book of Joshua, chapter one, verse one to nine. So I'm going to read this. I'm going to edit this out. God's with me all the way. What does it mean to prosper? I mean, I'm a very fortunate person. Very, very fortunate. So fortunate, it's hard. See, I prospered, and God's with me throughout. How does it sit with me? In God we prosper. In God we prosper with courage. Courage to do what? To be convicted in our faith, and confronted with a finite nature of this blip. God prospers through our courage, our courage to face the law. And when he face the law of the land.

Hi, welcome to another episode of the Chronic Christian with your host, John Ralph Tachito. Um, I want to shout out to my pastor. Thank you for taking the time to watch my video. He sent me a follow-up passage to read. This is the response of Jesus. So the previous video was trying to predict what was the outcome of this exchange. So now we're gonna find out what he said. So John 4, 13 to 15. Jesus answered and said unto her, who, whoever, whoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again. Okay, from a material point of view, we constantly get thirsty. From the material point of view, So it's like, okay, but if whoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him, shall never thirst. But the water that I shall give him shall be in him. A well of water springing up into everlasting life. The water saved unto him, sir, give me this water that I may, that I thirst not, neither come hither to drug. So less in disguise, but it clicked with the lady. Because she, she realizes it's not about the water, right? Because you're going to thirst for this water again, right? The water Jesus is talking about, the water I give you, you'll never thirst again. There's no mention of the implements, the instrument to draw from the wealth. Let's call that technology. The technology and the well is technology. The house, the water that makes you thirsty again, to retrieve the water that makes you thirsty again, is, is the bucket or the ladle that we can reach down into the world. The material means to thirst. It's like my saying, innovation is the escape from the piece of familiarity. What's familiar here? The water that Jesus gives, you'll never thirst again. It's a perspective that gets lost when we use technology to satisfy a material thirst, a material thirst. Jesus talking about an ethereal, an ethereal thirst, an ethereal thirst. You want for nothing? The water, the thirst is gone. Therefore, water is irrelevant. Right? The thing on the material that is required for life to thrive is not necessary. Right? And all the technology in the world, where it's like, it's but innovate, innovate, evate, escape the familiar, escape the familiar. Well, what's familiar to Jesus is ethereal thirst that Jesus offers, we ignore the material, the reality of the material, satisfaction, doesn't last. The satisfaction doesn't last. Our body requires water to live out judgement. within the blip. So all I got. TRANSCRIPT
Hi, welcome to another episode of Chronically Christian with your host, John Ralph Tachito. Slight format change. I'm no longer getting high. I have kicked. I am sober now. I realized that uh, The point of reading the Bible isn't just to have these cockamie, outlandish, metaphysical assumptions for entertainment. Yeah, that makes great content. But this is just a blip, right? This is just a material blip. I don't want to be judged by bastardizing the Bible. I wanna take it. Uh, understand it for what it is. Okay? Because I want to go to heaven. Okay? I'm Christian, I'm an Orthodox Christian, but a Christian nonetheless. I want to go to heaven. So this is this explains the material, right? This is from God, defines the material, how we, how we graduate from the blip into heaven. Or hell, depending where you what you want to do for your life. Or after life. So I asked my pastor, says, please, um, give me a verse, give me something to read from the Bible, and I'm gonna interpret it as best I can, but not like I used to, moving forward from this onward. And I'll put a little, I'll put a little disclaimer underneath this video saying that from this point forward, sober, sober, sober, but I might have unique takes that I think, Mike Merritt, entertainment values. Let's find out. So, John 4, verse 7 to 12. Okay, John 4, 7. 12, 12, Okay. There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus said, Seth, safe unto her, give me to drink. For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat. Then Saith, the woman, a Samaria, unto him. How is it that thou, being a Jew, asks drink of meat? Which am a woman of Samaria? For the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans. Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knowest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, give me to drink, thou wouldst have asked of him, and he would have given the living water. The woman saith unto him, sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep, from whence then hast thou, that living water, art thou greater than our father, Jacob, which gave us the will, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle. Okay. Let's start from verse by verse. I've read that through. There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus saved unto her, give me to drink. So Jesus asking, give me a drink of water. Okay? That's what it's saying, right? Jesus. He's saying, baby, give me some water. For his disciples were gone unto the city to buy meat. Now, it's interesting. Why wouldn't Jesus just get the water himself, right? Is he... Maybe he makes, he has to make every living moment of his existence a lesson. Uh, a preaching, an evangelism, Like he can't help but everything he does is, is, um, delivering the word of God, because it's in the Bible. Okay? Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, how is it that thou, being a Jew, asketh drink of me? Which am a woman of Samaria, for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans. So she said, amen. You're a Jew. Right? I'm a Samaritan. We're better than you. Congratulations. The ones that are left. So here, the lessons start in the form. I assume Jesus knew he was going to get this reaction. So it's not about the water. Right? He could be parched. He could not be parched. It's about being tactful, right? You know how this is gonna unfurl. Right? But dealing with the finite blip, dealing with the finite blip, uh, Jesus interacts with the fallible, right? Because this case, this woman, uh, where is it? Samaritan, the cement, from Samaria. So, who are you? Ask me to draw what? Draw it yourself. Right? Thinking that it's just, it's about thirst, right? Maybe it's not about the physical thirst, maybe it's thirst for something deeper and more profound. Uh, and the as she... She's not, uh, she's not um, shy about her feelings towards Jews. Okay? Jesus answered and said unto her, if thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink, thou wouldst have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water. So it's not about the water, right? He's asking, if you know who you're asking, If you know who's asking you, right? Give me to drink, thou wouldst have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water. Right? So water that, We require water to live. But if by common living water, I feel like it's like we're a vessel, right? The water, It's like the spirit fills the vessel. Right? Well, if replenishes the material blip, you know, the meat that's packing our bones, it's, it's, I think it's, I think it's meant, as a lesson to say that, by drinking the water, you're feeling your soul with, with the divine. Right? That's what this is about. This is not, and the fact that you would give it to a lesser person, right? A Jew. Corinthus woman is a lesser person, the audacity of asking her to keep a Jew water, right? And not even think beyond that, the lesson that Jesus is trying to highlight here. So, what? The woman saith unto him, sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep, from whence, then, how, hast, had thou that living water? So she's asking, okay, well, you don't have anything to reach the well. It's too deep. Right? You don't have anything, so how am I supposed to do it, right? You're asking me to do it. What do you want me to do? Crawl down into the well? You know? suck it up into my mouth and spit it, you know, spit it into a cup or something. then what do you what are you asking of me? You don't have the means to get the water. Why are you asking me? Right? Okay, so art, thou greater, art thou greater than our father, Jacob? Which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle. So he's saying, look, my father Jacob, Built the well, he gets his own water, right? He has the means to do it. Why are you asking me? And again, she's misinput. The well is material. The well is material, the water, the water is material. Right? Water can't feed a soul, right? You can't, that's that's uh, you're crossing the divide from the material into, into the... What we can only assume is there without faith. Right? So it's like asking, look, my father built this well. And uh, you know, what time are you there? Built this well, and uh, fetches the water himself. Right? And, uh, my pastor didn't let, uh, he stopped it short there and I'm going to try and keep it within that frame. So it's kind of like, If I were to vision this going further, right? My pastor is saying, look, now it's your point to understand that this is designed for you. Right? And I think there would just be a long pause, right? So that's the end of the verse. That the end of that little, That little framing there. So I'm left to contemplate. You're asking me something that's essentially, Uh, the go out of my way to do something that's essentially impossible, right? You don't have the means to do it. It's because she prioritizes the material blip, right? She prioritized the material. She prioritizes uh, the physical means, right? That Jesus is portraying that he's incapable. He's asking, Of the woman, draw, draw from the well, draw from the well, the living water. Can you draw from a material well for living water? Living water, I would say, is the soul. The Holy Spirit. No. You cannot, right? You don't have the means. Right? When you prioritize the material, when you have material thinking, where it's like, well, I don't have the means, but, you know, I, If I did have the means, I could draw the water, but you're a Jew. Why would I do that? Right? So what's doing is this, this, this, this, this material diarrhoea, right? She's vomiting. Right? The long pause is meant to come to saying, okay, hold on. Jesus is not thirsty. Jesus is not thirsty, right? Because if he's asking, he's not asking me to do something. Impossible here. What does the water mean? What does living water mean? I say it's the Holy Spirit. Right? So you can't draw out the Holy Spirit from the material. From the material well. Because, uh, you'll fall in, and you'll succumb to material, which is death, which is inevitable. Right? All you could do is perhaps drink, just drink the well dry, which means you die because you can't leave the well, but you won't drown. Right? You're not gonna drown the death, but you're gonna starve the death eventually. Uh, or die of parchment eventually. So I think that's what if I was if I was that woman, right? This is what I would process. This is what I would process, right? Because if I, I, I, Because of psychosis, I sort of, I sort of live beyond the material. Uh, documenting the metaphysical assumption. that paints outside the material with the perspective that swallows the earth, that swallows the material, Okay, and I'm trying to make that tangible through the lens of the Bible, okay? That's what I'm trying to do here. So that's my interpretation. It's completely sober. I hope you enjoy it. Hope it makes sense. I'm gonna send this to my pastor and I'm gonna get some feedback from, hopefully. If you have feedback, comment down below, okay? It's very simple. Uh, just some gentle outreach. I would appreciate it and we can have a discussion about it. Thanks for joining me, John Ralph the Cheeto, and on this my channel, the Chronically Christian. Ciao. |
