ChristiTutionalist Politics (S1EJunSpecial3) Clarifying Point and Purpose of the CTP Show
Need focus on WHOLE BIBLE and IN FULL CONTEXT (unlike those that try twist/distort The Word for own agendas (Earthly Power/Control) purposefully, willfully, malice of forethought, quoting out-of-context). Fellow Humans (all us, again, all Humans, imperfect and fallible) can, could, even unintentionally, lead others astray. Whole Bible, Context matters!
Show intro from S1EJunSpecial3: A break-out of Segment that will be included in a few other Shows to focus on point/purpose of the CTP Show and us together as Christians (despite sects/brands)... We are thousands of years removed from Christ's time. Does anyone deny humankind is flawed, frail, capable of mistakes. Can anyone deny we are sometimes, IMO too often, divided even in our own views of "Christianity" (somehow we are all followers of Christ, but at times still divided than united in Christ) - it is undeniable there are variations, revisions, differences, in the various sects/denominations Bible version texts, otherwise how can there be so many different versions of supposed ONE BIBLE. Satan has entered Hubris in our Hearts, trying to taint our Souls, wanting us to focus on the divisions THAT MAN has introduced from, in, with our "supposed ONE and focused in Christ" FAITH (as none of us were there thousands of years ago) and these various rewritings of the original texts. The point and purpose of CTP is to try focus us on things we can all agree and come together under CHRIST - not let Devil steal our Joy and our Love of Christ and instead be at each others throats in these Satan and/or Human created "differences" in the last couple thousands of years that have entered in our discourse. Until we are all ONE together in Heaven and all and full truth revealed (direct from the source, not tainted by Human game of "Telephone") we take it all on FAITH (none of us KNOW with 100% certainty and assurance, not me, not you; again unless you have a Time-machine to go back and hear it all first-hand; no-one, that's why we all Pray (don't we) for guidance and forgiveness if/when/where we get something wrong in Life at times). Let us be TOGETHER in Christ, not bickering as Satan wants us to be. And while we are to Judge (Biblically contextually) Final Judgement is for The Lord - Condemn not lest ye be Condemned. Has Jesus contradicted, of course not, had Jesus gotten something wrong, of course not, it is Humans via misinterpretations and mistranslations that have introduced any potential Scriptural contradictions and discrepancies or potential attempts to distort in our different sect/denomination texts (Bible copies) - as our Churches, our sects/denominations have Human Leadership and sometimes personal mistakes or outright quests for power/control here on Earth.
Again... Need focus on WHOLE BIBLE and IN FULL CONTEXT (unlike those that try twist/distort The Word for own agendas (Earth

1. Show intro (00:00:00)
2. Segment 1 - Clarifying the Point and Purpose of this Show (let us leave no mis-understanding about trying to come together, not let Satan Win having us arguing and divided) (00:00:50)
3. Put aside the "denominations" concepts, any potential "differences," and us solely focus on the CHRIST parts we can, could, should, all be in unison on/with. (00:01:49)
4. Call back to discussion with Kent at "Nanna's Kitchen" that I mentioned in another episode (00:02:44)
5. Old Testament, New Testament, both are important in comprising our Christian Bible (00:03:02)
6. Did Jesus ever contradict himself? Of course not, Humankind gets things wrong and can and sometimes do "cause confusion" in these matters (00:04:19)
7. see related article: https://beforeitsnews.com/christian-news/2024/06/did-jesus-ever-contradict-himself-of-course-not-humankind-in-frailty-can-and-sometimes-and-does-get-things-wrong-2622143.html (00:04:24)
8. Do you have a Time-Machine? I sure don't. We cannot go back and see/hear exactly all done/said then for ourselves (We take things on FAITH and what was/is handed down to us now over 2,000 years later) (00:04:29)
9. The Devil wants us divided and arguing among ourselves about Faith issues, rather than (and again, point of this Show) focusing on the things that would bring/keep us together in Christ (00:05:29)
10. Those things that can cause rifts - do we really want to be arguing (hold ground on Hubris) or together in LOVE under Christ Jesus?!?!? (00:05:59)
11. An example/metaphor, not used in Show but... Was the primary color in Joseph's TechniColor DreamCoat - Red, Pink, Fuscia? Does that really matter and worth drawing lines and arguing about? NO. Weak metaphor to other things we DIVIDE on, but makes point. (00:06:28)
12. Who among us can read, speak, and write in all Aramaic, Hebrew, Latin, and Greek??? (00:06:44)
13. "Thou Shalt Not MURDER" (vs Kill) rabbit-hole (00:07:09)
14. The Exodus (an "Old Testament" reference, I wish I would have thought to bring up with Kent) example (00:07:19)
15. The Bible, whole Bible, Old and New Testaments interacting together, IN CONTEXT (00:08:19)
16. "Come to Jesus moment" (as the saying goes) (00:08:49)
17. Matthew 7 as one of the most quoted out-of-context Scriptures (far more to it than JUST the 1st 7 words people use to create a distortion narrative) (00:09:09)
18. Judging and Voting Biblically (using constant, not hypocritically, one Standard, Biblical Standard) (00:09:59)
19. Condemn Not, Lest Ye Be Condemned - for final Judgement is for that of The Lord (00:10:14)
20. Sadly, another example/metaphor/analogy, we have all allowed Christianity to become different "flavors" as if it were brands of Ice-Cream (00:11:39)
21. Remember Humans are frail - and remember too, we are ALL HUMAN (therefore frail, imperfect, capable of mistakes and misunderstandings) (00:11:59)
22. 100 different Bible (flavors, brands, blends) versions? Yes, ok, hyperbolic to make a point - again, is this something to nit-pick and argue about? We need focus on things bring us together not Satan desire to keep us apart and arguing. (00:12:19)
23. Speculations and What Ifs (Show by that name specifically will be coming soon, June 29th to be exact barring unforeseen circumstances) (00:13:34)
24. Things we have "in Common" to be a "Community" in Christ (NOT "Communism" Politically, which is FORCE, unlike Christian "Community" Biblical and Voluntary) (00:14:19)
25. Apologies for past and if in future "IF" I may "upset" with examples, metaphors, analogies, to have us "THINK" - not my intent to "upset" but we need have honest discussions (and sometimes that can be "upsetting") (00:14:39)
26. Again, our need focus on WHOLE BIBLE and IN FULL CONTEXT (unlike those that try twist/distort The Word for own agendas (Earthly Power/Control) purposefully, willfully, malice of forethought, quoting out-of-context) (00:15:46)
27. Fellow Humans (all us, again, all Humans, imperfect and fallible) can, could, even unintentionally, lead others astray (00:16:39)
28. Show outro (00:17:28)
