If we don't tend the fire that burns within us. It can have devastating consequences. Fire can be all consuming as anger or rage. Or it can be warmth and loving. Like anything in life we have to watch that our fire does not hurt or spread and burn to be destructive. Fire can be beautiful and ugly depending which way we choose to use it.

Well I appreciate the fact that you can still express enjoyment of the content, Jason, even if you are wanting more! We're constantly evolving our formats, and here's the current situation: RU-vid algorithms have been changing, and now RU-vid does much better sharing and recommending shorter videos. We're trying to move with the changing way that internet platforms work, so we are working on shifting longer, deep dives into topics onto a different platform, one that is set up to present information as a learning course. The first course is being worked on right now. So, stay tuned! Meanwhile, there will continue to be hour-long Q&A episodes on the last Monday of every month. Hope that's enough to keep you interested -- or maybe you'd enjoy reading one of Swedenborg's books? Anyway, thanks for being with us so far!

What came to me first about the fire is the passion for addictions we may have. How it's out of control and we're too close to it and we get burned. Also we keep feeding the fire toxic fuel from within us. It's best to walk away and look for a new place to light a new fire. Eventually the toxic fire will burn itself out and you got a new better replacement. A Powerful and accurate correspondence.
@offTheLeftEye
@offTheLeftEye 2 года назад
I was thinking about addictive behaviors too, Rick. Walking away is a good thing to try! Hopefully the Lord will help the toxic fire burn out, and help new, tender flames come alive!
@rickrouse7865
@rickrouse7865 2 года назад
@@offTheLeftEye I think we also have to empathize that you need fire in your soul. Look at the lengths we go to light up fires within us even if the burning fires are toxic and harming us. We didn't have a proper fireplace with clean fuel so instead we basically light up a dumpster fire in it's place. Can you blame a soul looking for light and warmth in this cold world? A dumpster fire is better then nothing to an impoverished soul. It's not a choice, we need fire and we will get it because the alternative is impossible. I have greater sympathy for people struggling with addictions. This video helps crystalize why. As souls we hunger for passions because they light up our souls and warms us. The fire analogy to passions is amazingly close to 1 to 1. To speak plainly. The intensity of an addiction must be traded for equal value (dopamine hit). So it's not enough just to quit a thing, the thing must be replaced with something better for you.
@offTheLeftEye
@offTheLeftEye 2 года назад
@@rickrouse7865 well said. So many people report feeling "free" or "so alive" when they use drugs. I might argue that this is how we feel when we are doing anything we love - chasing a passion where time stops and we're just absorbed in creating something wonderful, whatever it is. We have to develop healthy ways to do this, but I think you are absolutely right that it's passion we are chasing! It's that desire to be our authentic selves, an energy so powerful we have to direct it properly or it truly can destroy us. Amazing. Thanks for sharing!

On Tremulation Trans. by C.T. Odhner from Swedish manuscripts of 1718 & 1719. 1899. OS. Revised edition in preparation. Fragments of a remarkable theory about "our most subtle nature, showing that our moving and living force consists of vibrations." This prelude to Swedenborg's search for the soul is his first examination of the relation between physiology and mental consciousness. He conceives of human sensations as consisting of subtle vibrations or "tremulations." While parts of the original treatise have been lost, this short volume includes all known fragments of Swedenborg on the theory, and outlines his earliest thinking on the soul-body problem. Index.

Fire need some conditions to burn well : Fire = oxygen + Heat + combustible (wood gas) . If there is too much smoke, this means that the efficiency of the burn is not optimal : it is a waste of energy. It is better to start au fire by the top and see the fire reaching the bottom making less smoke. And also there is more factors to improve the elements conditions. There is a lot of videos in YT showing how to improve the burn conditions so that this fire became magnificient and controled ! I like wood gas stoves and rocket stoves. May be I need to make use also of this in my life too. Thanks for this video .

~Our origins and what went wrong~ I will try to make this as simple as I can. I have come to these conclusions from the KJV of the bible, using Strong's concordance, from ancient text, tablets, and from some great teachers that specialize in these teachings. * Any word after a / in this writing is the translation of the word in Hebrew or Greek from the Strong's Concordance. In the beginning of the bible it tells us that the Ĕlôhîym (God-H430) created the heavens, the earth, and everything in it including us. They didn't create us from dust, mud or breath. They created Adam-H120 which means an individual or the species, human beings, male and female. Genius 1:[26] And God/ĕlôhîym said, Let us make/do man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion/rule over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air/heaven, and over the cattle/beast, and over all the earth/land, and over every creeping thing that creepeth/creep upon the earth/land. [27] So God/ĕlôhîym created/create man in his own image, in the image of God/ĕlôhîym created/create he him; male and female created/create he them. We were not meant to till the ground or work hard and suffer to live. We had everything we needed and nothing was required from us. Genius [28] And God/ĕlôhîym blessed/bless them, and God/ĕlôhîym said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish/fill the earth, and subdue it/subdue: and have dominion/rule over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air/heaven, and over every living thing/live that moveth/ creep upon the earth/land. [29] And God said, Behold, I have given/give you every herb bearing/sow seed, which is upon the face/before of all the earth/land, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding/sow seed; to you it shall be/was for meat. [30] And to every beast/live of the earth/land, and to every fowl of the air/heaven, and to every thing that creepeth/creep upon the earth/land, wherein there is life/soul/live, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so. [31] And God saw/see every thing that/which he had made/ do, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening/even and the morning were the sixth day. The Ĕlôhîym rested the 7th day which 7 thousand years could have passed throughout the whole creation: 2 Peter 3:8 [8]But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. After that the Yehôvâh (LORD-H3608) is who we mostly hear about.They are different beings that have taken over at this point on earth. They are taking credit for what Ĕlôhîym has created. (Moses speaking)-Deuteronomy 32:[3]Because I will publish the name of the LORD: ascribe ye greatness unto our God. When it changes from God-H430 to LORD-H3068, and there are many more names in the bible that name them, then that is when things go terribly wrong on the earth. When LORD-H3068 is next to the name God-H430 then it means Yehôvâh. It's because the Yehôvâh has attached the name to our original creators just like Moses said and Yehôvâh was with Moses throughout that story influencing him. Yehôvâh created their own creation of Adam and Eve who are not human. They needed people that they could control because the original humans were not meant to be controlled, helpers, servants or slaves. The Ĕlôhîym didn't need anything from us to experience life on earth. The definition of the beings the Yehôvâh created are man-H376 which is 'îysh in Hebrew and woman-H802 which is 'ishshâh nâshîym in Hebrew. This is where it changes: Genius 2:[4] These are the generations of the heavens/heaven and of the earth/land when they were created/create, in the day that the LORD/yehôvâh God/ĕlôhîym made/ do the earth/ land and the heavens/heaven, [5] And every plant/bush of the field before it was in the earth/land, and every herb of the field before it grew/grow: for/that the LORD/yehôvâh God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. [6] But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground. [7] And the LORD/yehôvâh God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. [8] And the LORD/yehôvâh God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed. The LORD/yehôvâh has been trying to take credit for creation and fooling everyone into thinking it's ok to be in wars, kill, divide, steal, and destroy. The LORD/yehôvâh makes promises to some people and in the meantime destroys others. They appear to be doing good sometimes but they don't have any issue with destroying their own or anything living on the earth when they feel it's necessary or when people aren't doing what they want them to do. They have caused astronomical suffering and convince some people that they are righteous and their enemy is evil. The LORD/Yehôvâh have convinced people that they are victims and need to be saved by them instead of them knowing their own power which is much more powerful because it comes from the Most High Creator. They say you have to be a God fearing person but the Ĕlôhîym didn't create us to fear because it wasn't needed. The Ĕlôhîym or the Most High Creator doesn't have an ego so they don't need praise or worship because we are connected and part of them so it would be like us worshipping ourselves and that would be prideful which is just not in their nature. When someone reads the bible it is important to know which person or being you are reading about. If you don't then I can completely understand how a person could be deceived. I would think the churches would have figured all of this out because it is very plain to see. The bible can be deceptive or it can be eye opening. The ten commandments are from LORD/yehôvâh and the journey to the "promised land". The flood story with Noah is LORD/yehôvâh. The tower of babel and confounding the language and separating everyone was LORD/yehôvâh. They didn't want us being united because we are too powerful for them when we are and they don't want that. Just like now. They want us divided. All of the suffering, death, division, and destruction is not the will of the Most High God. It is the will of LORD/yehôvâh. There is no testing from the Most High God because there is no need for that and they don't play games or tricks on us. The testing is from LORD/yehôvâh. Either you are a human being or you are not.. This is humanity that belongs to Ĕlôhîym and the Most High God: Adam-H120 Hebrew: אדם Transliteration: 'âdâm Pronunciation: aw-dawm' Definition: From H119; {ruddy} that {is} a human being (an individual or the {species} {mankind } etc.): - X {another} + {hypocrite} + common {sort} X {low} man ({mean} of low {degree}) person. KJV Usage: man (408x), men (121x), Adam (13x), person(s) (8x), common sort (with H7230) (1x), hypocrite (1x). Occurs: 552 In verses: 527 man-H120 Hebrew: אדם Transliteration: 'âdâm Pronunciation: aw-dawm' Definition: From H119; {ruddy} that {is} a human being (an individual or the {species} {mankind } etc.): - X {another} + {hypocrite} + common {sort} X {low} man ({mean} of low {degree}) person. KJV Usage: man (408x), men (121x), Adam (13x), person(s) (8x), common sort (with H7230) (1x), hypocrite (1x). Occurs: 552 In verses: 527 This is not fully human and belongs to LORD/yehôvâh, Satan, Jacob/Israel, the devil: (There are other names in the Strong's Concordance and I will share the list of what I have put together) men-H582 Hebrew: אנושׁ Transliteration: 'ĕnôsh Pronunciation: en-oshe' Definition: From H605; properly a mortal (and thus differeing from the more dignified H120); hence a man in general (singly or collectively). It is often unexpressed in the English {Version} especially when used in apposition with another word: - {another} X [blood-] {thirsty} {certain} chap {[-man]} {divers} {fellow} X in the flower of their {age} {husband} ({certain} mortal) {man} {people} {person} {servant} some (X of {them}) + {stranger} {those} + their trade. It is often unexpressed in the Engl. {version} especially when used in apposition with another word. Compare H376 . KJV Usage: man (520x), certain (10x), husbands (3x), some (3x), merchantmen (2x), persons (2x), misc (24x). Occurs: 564 In verses: 530 incurable-H605 Hebrew: אנשׁ Transliteration: 'ânash Pronunciation: aw-nash' Definition: A primitive root; to be {frail} {feeble } or (figuratively) melancholy: - desperate (-ly {wicked}) {incurable} {sick} woeful. KJV Usage: incurable (5x), desperate (1x), desperately wicked (1x), woeful (1x), sick. Occurs: 9 In verses: 9 I don't think there is any in-between. It's the inheritance of one or the other. This realm has been corrupted for what seems to be a long time to us. I think the separation of the wheat and the tares is happening right now and we are almost done with this suffering. It's not about being negative or positive. It's much more than that. I hope this helps. It has helped me and now the bible is not so confusing to me anymore. Written with love, Mindy

Mindy, thank you so much for taking the time to write all of this for us. I agree with you; I think we are almost done with the suffering of the past-we're in a new era where people are looking more deeply at their reality and beginning to see what's useful and what we can leave behind, spiritually speaking! And you are right to look into the meaning of these words! It was mind blowing to me when I learned that "Adam" actually means all people! Thank you for sharing those definitions of Hebrew words, it really sheds an interesting light on the text! On this channel, we believe the Bible was written in spiritual allegory; it a language of inner meanings that are consistent throughout the text. In addition, the text was shaped by its authors, who often wrote about Jehovah from their perspective, not as Jehovah actually was. If we read carefully, we see there are passages throughout the Bible telling us that God loves and cares for us, and yet God is also described as angry, jealous, and vengeful. Those things don't seem to align well, and I think it's good to trust your instincts about that not feeling right and true to you. You might like our episode called "Why Is God So Angry in the Bible?" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yVb66mnefPc.html which talks about Swedenborg's understanding of that portrayal of God. You might also like our episode on the meaning of Adam and Eve: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RVlVBOsW5jk.html I would love to hear your thoughts! Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge with us! Sending love!

@@offTheLeftEye thank you for your response. I know you have helped me so much since my husband passed away in 2020 and have given me a lot of comfort. I know the bible has multiple layers of meaning and this was just one that I thought maybe fooled people in the past thinking it's ok to war with others. It just gets so frustrating and so sad with the state the world has been in. I appreciate what you do and have given me some hope especially with the huge loss of my soulmate.

@@MindySather God bless you, Mindy. I'm deeply glad that the concepts we share have been helpful to you during this painful period of grief. We join you in wanting people to find the concept of a God of love and mercy there in the Bible, not a God who wants war and conflict! 💗
