Living Daily in Reality

Living daily in reality — this is what we all want to do ! But what is reality ? Is it just what we face in our jobs — getting enough money to keep us working so that we can have children so that they can grow up like us to get jobs so that they can rep

We’re talking about living daily in reality — and we’ve been saying that reality was explained to us by a unique human being who lived in Palestine in the first century of our era. Although certain Western religions have tried to turn him into a figurehe

Living daily in reality — not in the world of soap-opera on TV, not in the disasters happening on the other side of the world — but living in actual reality !!! But what is reality i.e. what reality really lies behind this world that we see around us ?

If reality is that you and I were made by a fatherly creator who actually cares about us and made us inside his only son, it’s essential that we know why we believe that is reality. First, it’s necessary to know that such a person as this son actually exi

If reality is that we were made inside the only son of our Creator, then the human being that we identify with him must have power over life and death. But only Jesus of Nazareth has credibly demonstrated that ability to die and come back to life. Many fa

What is reality? We’ve answered so far that the only human being that seems to have existed outside this earth — and been conscious of his existence — and therefore of any reality behind what we all see and touch here — is the man known as Jesus of Naz

We’re talking about living daily in reality and we’ve spent the past six videos sharing why we think the man known as Jesus of Nazareth is best able to tell us what reality is. This doesn’t mean that we have to be critical or disrespectful of other great

We’re talking about the one human being in the world who had the power to die and come back to life for more than a month in the first century of our present era. He is also the man that has been regarded as the wisest and most ethical human being by both

We’re talking about living each day in reality rather than the dream-world of the media or the transitory world of each day’s activities. Obviously this forces us to face the question ‘what is reality’. We’ve answered on the basis of the only human life t

We’re talking about living each day in reality and in the first six days of these five-minute presentations we talked about the human being called Jesus and the intellectual evidence for regarding him as a historical person. We then dealt with some of the

Living daily in reality means you have to reject the unreal concepts that most of us have about ourselves and our origin.

Most of us think of ourselves as little individual creatures that must grab some security, significance, and happiness for ourselv

Living daily in reality means seeing that we are not just little nothings that occur by chance from some huge explosion in space, but that we are the intricate creation of a personal, loving Father who made us inside his own son. Of course that changes th

If living daily in reality is living in the certainty that we have been made by somebody who actually knows us and loves us, how does that affect the way we think of our futures ? The first thought that comes to us is that this creator must know exactly w

Living daily in reality means living lives that have been planned by the infinite father-creator who knows how many times every fly in the world beats its wings each minute. Although his love for us necessitates his making us free to love him or not, each

Living daily in reality entails seeing clearly that you personally have a loving father who made you inside his own son so that he could live the life through you that he has planned. What we saw yesterday was that we have had no time for that kind of thi

We have been talking about what reality truly is, and we’ve said in these first fifteen segments that the most cohesive and believable explanation seems to come from a unique human being who lived in the first century of our era-a man known in history as

When you talk about living in reality, you’re really talking about living in two worlds-there’s the world around us with all its wrongs and disasters and chaos; On the other hand there’s the world that we long for and try to create.

And even these t

Reality is that God made you as part of his Son who lived here on the earth as Jesus of Nazareth in the first century. He existed in eternity outside our time-space world-and you were created inside him there. He had his own physical body then, but now he

How does the life we have been describing differ from the day to day life most of us are living? If you want to refresh your memory of the intellectual basis for what we are saying in these discussions, please do view again (or read) Days 1 to 6: this wil

We’ve been talking about reality-and living in it every day. We’ve said that reality is that you personally have a loving Father who made you in his only son so that he could live the life that he has planned; so his son is working to complete his creati

Living in reality is totally different from the life that most of us live each day. But living in unreality has deadly consequences and effects that spoil and shorten your life. Your life is probably like everyone else’s-at least eight hours each day is

Living daily in reality means living in things as they really are. Yesterday we talked about the futility of life when it’s lived in a closed universe i.e. when you think that reality is this little earth spinning through limitless space with no comprehe

Living daily in reality is letting the son of our creator live through us the life his father has planned for you and for me. But we despise that whole reality and shift for ourselves-we never think of God living in us and wouldn’t put up with it if we go

Reality is that you and I were made to enjoy the same kind of life as the son of the creator of the universe. We weren’t made to live the little pokey, petty, self-centered life that many of us drift into. We were made to be actual willing containers or

Our creator is not some cosmic toy-maker who makes billions of human-beings, gives them free will and then stands back to observe the results. He is a loving father who foreknew in a milli-second all the consequences of the free decisions of billions of

Your personal father is not your human Dad; your personal father is your creator. He made you like himself and put the spirit of his only Son into you this is the light that lightens every man that comes into the world; this is the good that you feel r

Why does it seem easier to do wrong than right? Why does our self-esteem depend more on the approval of other mortal human beings like ourselves rather than on the one really significant other who made us? Why do our eyes seek the eyes of others to see

Living daily in reality means that you have to first decide what reality is. Is it that this earth has resulted from a mindless, impersonal collision of atoms or that it was created by an intelligent superior being. As we’ve studied the history of the

The reality of our life here on earth is that our creator is a loving father who made us as part of his only son so that we could continue to exist even as we tried nothingness rather than him. Throughout our lives in his son he has borne the consequence

Living daily in reality means living as a lucky child of a loving father. That’s really who you are. The most reliable information we have about our origins is from the collection of history books known as ‘ta biblia’ or ‘the books’ in Greek. This Bibl

Living daily in reality means starting again ! Doing what many of us have dreamed of — starting life over again. Living daily in reality is doing just that. It means accepting what Einstein stated in his special theory of relativity — that time an

Living daily in reality means seeing that this is the world that has already passed. The infinite Maker of the universe has seen his whole creation in a milli-second; his great mind has seen all that you and I and millions of our forbearers and successor

The only credible explanation of the reality in which we actually live is that given by the human being, Jesus of Nazareth in the first century of our era. This was officially accepted in the Roman Empire in 325 a.d. and has since been the basis of thinki

God made a cosmic change that is expressed in this time-space world by Jesus’ death in the first century – “God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself” remaking and renovating it to what it was originally planned to be. That is the new world that

How could there be a good God when you see all the suffering, injustice, and disasters in our world? Such a God would not allow such things to happen ! This is the well-known argument for agnosticism or atheism known to all of us as the problem of suffer

One of the most difficult things to understand is theodicy. How can we have free wills yet live lives foreknown or foreordained by our Creator? The Maker of the universe must know the potentials of what he has made and therefore must know in detail what w

How can God control the universe without turning us into robots? Physicists like Everett opened the way to a possible answer when they suggested that there may be concomitant universes that exist alongside each other. This is one of the hypotheses present

Living daily in reality means living in the real universe and today’s quantum physicists are saying that this universe is larger and more complex than we ever thought. Certainly as future space-travelers we are learning that time goes more slowly the fart

We’ve been saying that you personally have a loving father who made you part of his only son so that he could express in your life something of himself and could add something to his creation through you.

We’ve been saying that the worldwide recession of 2009 was permitted by the maker of the world so that we could see what life without him would be like and could see that he alone can remake this broken world and us with it. Many of us regard this as eit

Were talking about living each day in reality rather than in the temporary world of topical events – or the media. But what is reality? The only human being who has died, been buried for days, come back to life and then left the planet so that his bod

The reality for which we were created is simply our Makers Son living in us living the life he planned and doing the things he wishes to do through us. We simply cannot get our minds around this idea. It is so far from what we have been trained to

Why do we see good and bad in our world? Why do we often witness deeds of heroic unselfishness on the one hand – and then actions of extreme selfishness and cowardice on the other? Because our Creator wants us to see clearly the consequences of the ch

Paul expressed in the first century the paradox many of us have experienced: We know that the law is spiritual, but I cam carnal, sold under sin. I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. Now if I do

You were made by a loving Father who made you as part of his only Son – the son that expressed himself in a human body in the first century as Jesus of Nazareth. One of his disciples put it like this – ” we are God’s workmanship created in Christ Jesus fo

We are meant to live by the life of our Maker’s Son Jesus within us so that we are motivated and animated by his energy – this love of his would fulfill us, but we have rejected that reality and look to the world around us for the fulfillment that only ou

As we begin to live in reality rather than the fantasy that we are self-made, autonomous creatures, our personalities start to work the way God intended them to – from the inside out. This changes the way our minds work and brings freedom from self.

Throughout history statesmen like Churchill or Bismarck often sensed that the great events that mold our nations and our individual lives are controlled by some higher power that brings about results that surprise and bewilder the human beings involved in

Outside time – in the real world whose attributes we are beginning to glimpse in quantum physics – God destroyed our perverted natures and fallen world and remade the invisible, real world that is permanent. As we live in that faith, our minds begin to op

You and I endeavor to live as self-existent, self-made beings. But we find we have needs that only a maker’s love can supply – security, significance, happiness; so we look to the world of things, people, and circumstances to meet these needs. Not only ha

How Did We Get Where We Are?
We were made by our creator as part of his only son so that he could share his life and love with us. But he gave us individual existence and self-consciousness which we were free to accept or turn into self-centeredness. He f

Escaping from Our Present Predicament.

Our Creator has made us part of his only Son, and he has given his son the task of filling this planet with his Father’s life through each one of us. But we must will to do that or make his Son suffer through u

We’ve been talking about the start of our life here on this planet. Using the explanations given by the only human being that has ever convincingly explained and demonstrated in his life and death that he really was the Son of our Creator, we’ve said th

Are you like one of the particles discovered by our physicists they exist for a milli-second and then cease to exist? If you feel you are just an infinitesimal piece of matter that is self-existent and self-made, then paradoxically – you have felt also th

The only way you can avoid the reluctant resignation to fate that human religion urges for this hubris is the boundless joy of identification with your death and resurrection in God’s Son. Just as he did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped,

What we see then in this present world is the great mirage what the world and our life would be like if there was no God … Our mental and emotional life is the result of living as if there is no creator as if we had made ourselves and are dependent on t

The apostle, St. Paul wrote to the Corinthians you have died and your life is hid with Christ in God – because this present life we live now is a passing scene, a scenery-set that has already been removed and replaced by reality in that parallel universe

Our Creator wants children who can love and whom he can love, but real love can come only from a free will. So God made us part of his only Son Jesus so that He himself could bear the effects if we chose to love ourselves rather than him. Our present worl

What is reality? Reality is that you are actually part of our Creator’s only son, the man known as Jesus of Nazareth who lived on the earth for more than thirty years in the first century of this present era. One of his followers has written “you are the

The good news is that your Maker is your personal loving Father who made you part of his only Son so that he could express himself through you in his universe. The bad news is that you don’t accept that and your nature has become dependent on that univers

Our creator made us as part of his only Son so that he himself would bear the deathly consequences if we chose nothingness instead of his design to develop the universe through his Son in us. As we ignore this inner life and his love, our human nature bec

Your Maker made you and put you on this planet for two purposes – first, to do something in his universe that only you can do – and secondly, to become more like him. His only born son, who lived in Palestine as Jesus of Nazareth about 30 a.d. (our most r

So you are here for the Creator’s son to complete his Father’s creation through you. In this process both you and the planet will yield to his will for them – even though it may only be completed in the cataclysm foreshadowed in Paul’s statement that the

When you look out on a hillside filled with daffodils in the spring or a river with salmon leaping upstream or s sky full of flocks of birds, you’re filled with a sense of plenty and generous provision. It’s easy to think that someone or something has spi

God made us free so that we could let his only Son develop the world through us, but we chose to ignore him and develop the world for ourselves. He knows there’s nothingness apart from him – and he knew we’d initially corrupt the human organism through mi

We’re talking about the human personality and the reason we ourselves have such difficulty doing what we think we should do. We’ve said that we were made by our maker as part of his only son so that we could enjoy his love and let his son develop this pla

Our maker made us part of his only Son to develop the world and our natures by his son’s uncreated life, but he foreknew we would choose first to do it for ourselves by our own created life – and that he in his son would have to bear the results. Only thu

Our Maker designed each of us to express a unique part of himself through his only Son to whom he has entrusted the completion of his creation. Our willingness to let his son express himself through us will determine what our world is like and whom we are

So the world is exactly like it was not meant to be, and our Maker has permitted this so that we would have a clear choice. This meant the capacity to love because we had the freedom not to love.

Our world consists of billions of spinning particles so small that only our physicists can detect or hypothesize them. They are controlled by our Maker’s Spirit in his only Son, Jesus Christ; they express the results of our acquiescence or rejection of ou

Our Maker made us in his image so that He could express all his glorious richness, and we could enjoy it firsthand. So you express part of Him that no one else can. That’s why you’re here – to mold his world in ways that no one else can by his power. You’

The completion of our Maker’s Son is the purpose of your life. Each of us has a whole way of thinking that we inherit from our parents – a suit of clothing that we put on as humans. We get our security from the things we have, our significance from people

The infinite creator conceived and created everything in a millisecond: he conceived of children like his only son who wanted to return his love. But he knew that love is only possible for beings who are free not to love. This meant creating and bearing i

The creator’s commitment to the freedom of our wills is expressed forever in letting the human race crucify his only son.

Our Maker’s desire is for us to understand his innermost mind and heart, to see clearly what it is and what it is not, so that we will know the nothingness that exists apart from Him and embrace Him freely as our own beloved Father.

Our astro-physicists tell us that space is expanding into infinite time. Our Maker wants live beings like his only Son – not robots – to live there with Him forever.

About 4 B.C. Jesus of Nazareth was born by virgin birth to Mary and Joseph in Bethlehem; the event was witnessed by officials of the Judean king Herod and recorded by witnesses whose accounts were corroborated by thousands of contemporaries

At present we can see the light that started towards us from a star over 13 billion light-years ago; so obviously the creator can see all time and the whole universe in a second!

The Creator made you a unique part of his eternal Son when you were born. He gave you free will so that you could share their love forever and help develop the infinite universe they had created.

# 70 So the world is exactly like it was not meant to be, and our Maker has permitted this so that we would have a clear choice. Our maker has done all this in what our physicists call a parallel universe — or eternity — above time and space as we know
