Christmas Movie Gathering in Brazil with David Hoffmeister 2024
In this Christmas gathering in Brazil, David discusses time loop movies and their connection to the Bible, which emphasizes the importance of not holding images before God. The world is a world of images, and when we make certain images important, they become idols. Jesus taught that the kingdom of heaven is within us, and true religion is peace of mind.
The world has many distractions, making it tempting not to pray and remain still. David uses the example of Walt Disney's animated characters, Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse, to illustrate this point. The key thing is that the animation doesn't seem to happen until you multiply this image many times and very quickly, turning what seems like a two-dimensional image into a three-dimensional motion picture. This illusion of change in motion is the trick of time, and underneath all these moving images, there is a belief that something is missing. Something is lacking.
The entire linear time-space cosmos is a world of scarcity, lack, and competition. The same is true for human beings and relationships; experiencing universal agape love is not possible in the construct of images.
The cosmos is like a giant mask over the light of the I AM Presence. Jesus said, "Before Abraham was, I AM," referring to love prior to the belief in time and space. He proclaims that that's what love is.
