I will be reading isaiah to its finish over the next few weeks and reading a gospel since the old testament is a bit hardcore for my tastes to balance it out, I will pick gospels once john is finished and once I am done isaiah I will finish that gospel

I am also reading isaiah at the same time, I start a new gospel when finished john's until isaiah is finished, then I will finish that gospel

after looking at the modern day western civilization and reading isaiah I think we can say we're in downright biblically bad times border/migrant crisis, feminism, corporate loyalty above national loyalty, the pork barrel politics, people acting fatherless (youths), and that whole thing about how 5-7 women are competing for the same man, aka 80% of women picking only about 5% of men as acceptable

you can totally ignore the part after I'm done john 3, but it's part of my testimony of my faith

I started with a promise to read all the book of isaiah but the old testament leaves me a little disheartened by its bloodiness and god's wrath as justice so I figured I'd balance it out with new testament gospel which is about grace and hope, I will be reading a gospel chapter per day as well until isaiah is complete and then I will complete the gospel book that's left over (isaiah is 66 chapters and john is 19 so I'll pick 2-3 gospels to read from)

I'm gonna be doing isaiah readings from 1 to the end (66), alongside other videos I think for a few weeks

"let my people go so that they may worship their god" -moses

Past odd beliefs and present quirks

Video cut off JUST as I was finishing, tldr all those names are just flat out as futile as Satan's rebellion against god, C's Lewis's Tao will reassert itself eventually after much pain and suffering and I posit that we are nearing the end of such ambitions to remake man in man's image this generation, also a big lol he says the ruler class are eunuchs, which is like transexuals, jealous of the vitality of the common man

I'm beginning to suspect that I'm not the antichrist either, which was a very real worry of mine at the very least I kind of suspect that if I were the antichrist, which I'm sure you'd understand my worrying about being, based on my confession, that somehow, jesus will save even such a lowly sinner as I how wonderful a god that would save even the most evil of sinners and get them to truly repent CS lewis probably said it best, it is only when we do our very best to be good, that we realize how bad we are, and that there comes a point in time when you are struggling to say "I can't do this god, you must do this for me" pride is a big sin of mine, and the effort to earn my salvation through works is a constant temptation of mine I fall prey to but I believe that even when I am doing poorly, god means for good what I do in bad, perhaps my stumbling around and admittance of it will provide heart to you who are struggling as well

didn't mention it but this was my introduction to christianity and faith in a good and merciful god, CS lewis audiobook of mere christianity https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pj_qM3gWNtk GK chesterton's audiobook Orthodoxy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4KfqaKtokcw whaddoyoumeme, christian lens viewing pop culture https://www.youtube.com/@whaddoyoumeme/videos just bible, monday-friday bible passage readings, saturdays eddification/hope, sundays biblical ASMR? https://www.youtube.com/@JustBible/videos gregory B sadler, scroll to bottom, most christian specific stuff is probably in medieval core concepts playlist, I know for a fact he has saint augustine core concepts as well (early church father of particular note probably the most influential in his metaphysics aside from the original 12 and jesus and moses/abraham) https://www.youtube.com/@GregoryBSadler/playlists michael sugrue example video, the man's a philosophy PhD like sadler but has more analysis of his own views and I find ties together narratives better than sadler but sadler is also good for his attention to detail better than sugrue https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wvd7V00tTok

kinda bit by the bug of picking random bible passages to see if they're relevant to previous topics I've talked about or relevant to a viewer's life circumstance

seems like it succeeded, sometimes god doesn't let me show off but on occasion he lets me show a little of how it works, wouldn't call myself a prophet in any special sense but I do believe the holy spirit gives the gift of prophecy or signs or portents more often to people than one might believe (I'm what's called a continuationist)

I suppose I should also say a christian take on economics provides the most moral standard for how one should go about attaining extra money, honest business, the true desire to provide value in exchange for stuff, instead of parasitizing off the good work of others
