01 - Welcome: What's good about being a father?
(0:00:00) Start (0:00:09) Good in being a father? (0:00:26) (6-sec delay) (0:01:21) Intro (0:01:37) Welcome
1A - What good is it being a father?
(0:02:00) What good is it being a father? You say?
(0:04:21) Lemme ask a father... Alex speaks...
(0:06:28) Another: What good is it being a father? Young lady answers... She's a lil sad these men faltered.
(0:07:52) You're a father, right? Jesse was texted the other day. Sam (I believe) answers.
(0:10:33) Doug said not a thing.
(0:10:58) Yes Nick
(0:12:34) ... JLP recounts what he texted his friend: Nothin'! I can't think of anything!
(0:13:07) Any questions? They came to receive, they brought nothing. Raymond…
02 - 2026: Endure. Be a doormat.
(0:13:55) This year is about Endurance — the theme. And year's Assignment: Be a doormat. Man’s been coming since March. Freeing. Nice. (0:14:50) Tell them what a doormat is.
(0:16:27) Thoughts show up, but I don't act them out.
(0:16:52) You don't bring anything, you wait for me to call on you. What's wrong with you? You gotta be waking up!
(0:17:30) Good morning. What a beta! We knew you were gonna say come sit in the front! Bowing to her whim! Why looking at her while talking to me? Make her feel guilty?
2A - Being a doormat at work? Cry in bathroom? (Shayan)
(0:18:19) Shayan: Be a doormat only way to be safe from this hell.
(0:19:20) You go in the bathroom and scream? Tears come out. Cry? Not cry. Rinse my eyes out. Why do you wanna cry?
2B - Easier mentally to be a doormat.
(0:24:28) Doug learning how to be a doormat. So much easier mentally. Very peaceful. My default is to fight, seems like. Catching that more and more.
2C - JLP (to Andrew): Abnormal to react or respond to anything.
(0:26:21) Andrew: I’d feel tender, soft, everything would bother me. I have same thoughts and imagination but I can watch it. Almost like exercising. I can! Not as impossible.
(0:27:05) JLP: It is 100% abnormal to react or respond to anything. Andrew continues. Interaction in the mind too, not just people.
(0:28:14) JLP: The more you be a doormat, you pay less attention
(0:28:57) Doug: Also nice not to have to prepare to deal with a person or situation. That takes a lot out of me, going into my mind to think, this... [person?]
2D - She works for a foreign gov't; they discriminate against employees
(0:29:46) Yes... Young lady has tried for a grand total of one week. Been called feisty, spitfire. I'm not the doormat type. Sleeping like a baby this week. … She works for a foreign government or something.
(0:31:31) You take the pain when they think they're better than you? Other employees from their country get better pay and more vacation. … I empathize with other employees, feel bad, assume they feel bad. Trauma bonding.
(0:32:45) Why be upset they're not getting paid fairly if YOU were?
(0:33:59) If I didn't like my coworker I wouldn't feel bad? If I liked the person I'd feel badly.
(0:36:03) Is it good? Her best friend crying, boss just yelled. She'd go hug her. What do you say? Man says it sounds so strange, it'd never occur to me. I don't even hug my family that much. I'm white. "Try coming from an Asian family. We don't even say, I love you."
(0:37:30) Another lady, one of the Armenian ladies. Would you have hugged her? Make the person feel better…
(0:38:42) Jesse, I love being a doormat. So peaceful, especially with my kids.
(0:39:00) Are you being a doormat? Tell the people what that is…. Sam: Enduring…
(0:40:03) Yes sir: An extension of Silent Prayer.
2E - Waiting for the truth to catch up with you
(0:40:33) Eric: Waiting for the Truth to catch up to you.
03 - BQ: What do you possess?
(0:41:14) Biblical Question: What do you possess?
(0:42:17) It feels good, more freedom, I don't get attached to anything… says a young lady…
(0:43:46) Man on BQ
3A - Coworker says wrong stuff, giggles (Shayan)
(0:44:41) Shayan: Trying to ignore my coworker is a reaction. Coworker will say something wrong or foul, something liberal.
(0:47:22) JLP: Good example.
3B - Alex: Not destroying myself.
(0:48:26) Alex on BQ: Awareness. Not do drugs.
(0:50:06) Alex: I was destroying myself.
(0:50:36) JLP: Nothing good. How’d you break your foot? Painful? If I put weight on it.
3C - Eric: Things I possess enslave me
(0:51:40) Yessir: Eric: reality nothing, but illusion world I still battle back and forth. Those things enslave you that you think you possess.
04 - We can't do good? Save a kid? (Mother Theresa, Ted Bundy, Lindsay Clancy)
(0:53:01) Being good vs doing good? JLP: we’re not able to do good.
(0:53:40) We don’t know what good is or what evil is.
(0:55:30) JLP: That's why people judge! They call that evil. A man or woman of good never judges.
(0:56:07) Man: Help me understand... Kid about to get hurt... Atomaton? Game?
(0:58:17) Why would you have to call it good or anything?
(1:00:23) Who would you rather be: Mother Theresa or Ted Bundy?
(1:01:25) JLP: Let's say I saw a kid…
4B - Lindsay Clancy. Evil vs Sin? Does God judge? (Ted Bundy?)
(1:03:32) That woman in Massachusetts, Lindsay Clancy
(1:04:17) Evil vs sin?
(1:04:49) Evil vs sin, what's the difference? Young lady speaks....
(1:05:07) JLP: Evil is sin, the nature of the Devil. Satan is evil.
(1:05:52) When you judge Ted, you're worse than Ted! "I don't agree with that. I think God would judge Ted far worse…”
(1:08:56) Do you judge Ted Bundy? Lindsay Clancy? … Does God judge you?
(1:09:34) Anybody else believe God judges? Raymond…
(1:10:16) So God AND Satan judge? Raymond and Alex.
(1:11:32) Who else believe God judges? Daniel in Hebrew means only God will judge.
(1:11:56) Why don't you believe... Young lady: I believe God loves, not judges… She believes Satan tempts. “Does that make sense?” Yeah, to him. (laughs)
(1:13:05) You don't believe God judges? Man speaks…
(1:14:08) Would you wanna live with a God who judges?
(1:15:26) Franky
4C - Who is God judging? "Free will"?
(1:16:10) Back to the man who judges the really bad people
(1:16:38) You think God judges you. Who is he judging? I look at extremes…
(1:18:20) Ted Bundy was accused of serial murder. You think God judges him and you.
(1:20:38) Very, very interesting. Doug… If God judges Ted Bundy, how come he didn’t make it stop? “Free will.” What would be the point of the judgment?
(1:22:10) Wasn't the reason Christ came: Father, forgive them… the Armenian lady
4D - No free will. No you. Sin forgiven. Law to contain people.
(1:23:26) JLP: God doesn't want you to fear him. Other than appreciation. Not fear emotionally.
(1:24:21) It's only because you DON'T have a free will. You think you'll be punished.
(1:25:04) There is no you.
(1:25:57) It's not you AT ALL. All of your sins have been forgiven.
(1:27:47) How do you reconcile that with the legal system? The law of the land to contain people.
(1:29:46) Under that way of looking at things I don't have an answer, says the man … Stay with it, it’ll be made clear.
4E - Thoughts are NOT you. Not in control of anything.
(1:30:24) Think about the things you've thought about and felt. If you told this room, they'd run out. It was not you thinking those things.
(1:31:32) We can't even create our own ideas. Even starting a business from God.
4F - You think God judges because YOU judge. Let go.
(1:33:24) The only reason you think God judges is because YOU judge. You think you're God. Not Ted Bundy. Dumb to feel guilty of things. Giving you (not you) false guilt! Let go, completely let go.
4G - Satan thoughts. Stop thinking about you, about God. Watch thoughts, do nothing
(1:35:17) Q popped up in his head this week: Satan cannot hear our thoughts, only God can.
(1:36:57) We have the perspective of Satan… Lindsay Clancy ladies: “Same.” … That’s why it’s a HORRIBLE mistake to think about you.
(1:39:10) Why don't you stop thinking about you?
(1:40:06) Watch the thoughts... JLP: Watch them and do nothing about them. Stop thinking about God.
(1:41:43) Young lady ... Evil. Reaction. Evil. On Earth we call that good. Someone start crying. Women play God — emotional people, men and women. Stay out of people’s way and LET PEOPLE SUFFER! You get in the way of their suffering because you’re evil!
05 - Outlaw stopped running. Law caught up. Pardoned.
(1:44:37) I watched this cowboy movie: Mr. Dillon and Chester. Gunsmoke. Posse after man robbed a bank, on the run
(1:47:57) You won't give up, let the posse team, the truth, catch up with you. Make sense? Man: Catholicism teaches us to be SCARED.
(1:49:49) Don't worry when will it end? It's too painful! Wait and see about everything.
(1:50:07) Man says someone confessed to a bunch of murders, really detailed.
(1:50:57) JLP: Slow down, give up. All is well. You've been lied to — about everything.
(1:52:05) JLP: Drugs don't make you better, just high. Buying things.
5B - Lady helped her (ex-)husband in court. "Helping" people.
(1:52:18) JLP: I have a friend of mine, y'all don't know her. In court to get her children. Husband wouldn’t show up. Called and told husband! Get a lawyer. We have one: Christ.
(1:54:20) You have never ... No reason to feel sad for people, sorry for people. Overcome the world in your mind and out there. Let them suffer. No right trying to help another adult. Your children, in the right way. Evil getting in the way of suffering.
(1:55:19) A country in Africa
5C - Christ: Forgive them, they know not what they do.
(1:56:27) On the cross, Christ said, Forgive them, they know not what they do. His enemies! Christ does not judge!
(1:57:47) In closing, don't give up. Understanding will come.
5D - Work on yourself: Sit and wait, go through hell. (Married)
(1:57:56) Young lady: Working on yourself is sitting and waiting.... Sit by the gate and just wait. Physical life you better go work out! And eat right. Etc….
(2:00:00) You've got to go through hell. Most won't allow themselves to go through hell. Try to get a quick fix to the problem.
(2:02:14) Announcement? We got married
(2:04:14) JLP: Wait. No matter how painful. Go thru hell. The cloud will clear away. You’ll see it was never me)
