• 11/5/24 BREATHE: the Truth Amidst the Tempest: Christ Calls His Elect
    Nov 7 2024

    November 5th, 2024: NOTHING CHANGED.
    In the physical world, nothing has changed but the emotions of a large proportion of the population. But forces in the Kingdom have gathered.

    Now, the Elect on Earth must respond. The Elect have been and are being chosen. And our job has not changed, but all days off are cancelled.

    This is the Tribulation. Said here before, it started a few klicks back. The Liar calls for our destruction.

    Excerpted Mark 13:

    And as He sat at the Mount of Olives, opposite the temple, Peter, James, John and Andrew questioned Him privately. “...what will be the sign when all these things will begin to be fulfilled?”

    And Jesus answered them:

    • many will come in my name, saying, ‘For I am he,’ and they will lead many astray ... you will have heard of wars and rumors of wars ... but the end is not so soon
    • nation will rise up against nation, and kingdom over kingdom
    • there shall be earthquakes in various places, and famines.
    • these are but the beginning of the sorrows ... the Gospel must first be preached to all nations
    • then brother will betray brother to death; and the father, a son; and children will rise up against their parents and will bring about their deaths. And you will be hated by all for the sake of my name.
    • those days shall have such tribulations as have not been since the beginning of the creation that God founded
    • And unless the Lord had shortened the days, no flesh would be saved. But, for the sake of the elect, whom He has chosen, He has shortened the days.


    WE CAN MAKE THEM SHORTER:

    S1E1 Calling the Elect to the Prayer of Faith
    S1E3 Being His Gospel; Bringing Christ into the World
    S1E4 Protecting THE WORD Through the Prayer of Faith

  • Series 3: GOSPEL WARS INTRODUCTION
    Oct 28 2024

    "Paul told us: "charge them before God to stop disputing about words. This serves no useful purpose since it harms those who listen." 2 Timothy 2:14

    Note this post from the Christian Universalism forum on Reddit:

    Does our faith rest on the mistranslation of aionos?

    I'm confused because this word can mean both age and eternity...

    ~~RESPONSE:

    "No, it can't mean both. Aion is the noun, it is used when you mean "an age" as in a period of time or, more commonly, a person's specific age or time of life. It can also mean "world."

    "But "aionios is an adjective, that can mean without beginning, without end, or everlasting.

    ~~LET'S TAKE PAUL SERIOUSLY:

    Note that the arguments about the meaning of a word diverted the poster from Christ? For this reason, IMO, delivering well-researched, prayerful New Testament discernment is possible and desirable, under controlled circumstances. One way to bring this back to Jesus:

    "We need to stop focusing on the adjective Jesus used because it doesn't matter. Jesus never said the word "hell." He never said anyone would be endlessly tormented or even temporarily tormented.

    "He explained in various ways the relationship between existence incarnate and existence in the Kingdom and how those are related, and said this is the way it has always been and always will be.

    ADDITIONALLY:

    There are dens of antiChrist vipers out there who make derailing God's Truth their lifework. MAKE NO MISTAKE, THIS IS A WAR AGAINST CHIRST AND THE LOGOS, hence the name of the series.

    If we don't "contend" how do we fight? I once read a stat that said for every poster there are 8 lurkers. We can answer the poster, but know our responses in faith are for the lurkers.

    COMING UP IN EPISODE ONE:

    ~~Paul did not say ALL the writings of the modern (or any) Canon of Scripture were "God breathed." Kyrie tells us what he actually said and why it's illogical and dangerous to believe the claim.

  • GOSPEL WARS: 2Timothy 3:16 - CORRECTED
    Oct 27 2024

    Paul did not say ALL SCRIPTURE is "God Breathed." In this episode Kyrie reveals what the verse does say and how the antiChrists are using it to destroy the Gospel and relegate Jesus to "Just another guy in the Bible."

    If the claims are based on John's Gospel, saying that "everything was made through Him" and so Jesus, as Second Person of the Trinity, wrote all the books of the Bible, then He also wrote all the books banned from the Bible. He wrote the Egyptian Book of the Dead. He wrote the I Ching.

    If anything said by anyone in the collection of scrolls the Hebrews s considered relevant to their religion and culture are equally true as anything Jesus says in Scripture, why did the Protestants ignore Jesus writings and toss out 8 books and several additional writings from what the call the "Bible?"

    HERE ISTHE CLASSIC KJV TRANSNLATION OF 2 Tim 3:16

    All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.

    HERE IS WHAT THE LETTER ACTUALLY SAID:

    Paul is giving Timothy instructions for taking over Paul's ministry and place as an Apostle, he has been referring to his own writings all through the letter, as here:

    2:1-2

    So you, my child, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. And what you heard from me through many witnesses entrust to faithful people who will have the ability to teach others as well.



    3:14-16 ; 4:1-2

    But you will abide in that which you understand firmly, knowing from whom you learned, since from your beginning you understood the writings about God—those that are able to increase your understanding of redemption with assurance through Jesus Christ.

    Every writing inspired by God and also helpful for teaching, for evidence, for correction, for nurturing of righteouness—in order that Godly men maybe be completely equipped for all manner of good works—I charge you .... to preach that word.


    Part of Paul's writings were not inspired as he said, himself. Of those that were, not all were suitable for general audience preaching, as we understand from "inspired by God and also..."

    Kyrie explains what makes this so dangerous.

  • S2:Visions E2: BUBBLES—the Eternal Connection
    Oct 23 2024

    For from the greatness and the beauty of created things, their Original Author, by analogy, is seen. Wisdom 13:5

    BUBBLES. The first thing I did for this episode is make the title card that goes with it. I hope you can see it. If not, I have a post for the episode image here.

    The simple topic is our connectedness to God. The subtext is Universalism - all shall be reconciled to Him. Let's listen to Saint Isaac:

    "This is the mystery: that all creation by means of One, has been brought near to God in a mystery; then it is transmitted to all; thus all is united to Him...This action was performed for all of creation; there will, indeed, be a time when no part will fall short of the whole." Saint Isaac the Syrian, 7th century.

    So much of what we are given in our moments of connection is lost when we try to express the unexpressable in language. Much is also lost when we translate from one language to another. But this last thought was repeated by Julian centuries later.

    From Saint Isaac we learn the simplicity of Our Lord's most profound teachings, that works in any language:

    "As a handful of sand thrown into the ocean, so are the sins of all flesh as compared with the mind of God; as a fountain that flows abundantly is not dammed by a handful of earth, so the compassion of the Creator is not overcome by the wickedness of the creatures... "

    How arrogant do we have to be to believe we can alter God? That we can make Divine Love, not loving? Our real problem is, we can say we believe but mostly we don't believe God is in us. And that we are as much God as the Incarnate Jesus if we follow Him.

    Here's a link to a You Tube video about how bubbles hang together and just how thin but strong that barrier is.

  • Series 2: Visions. EP1: The Way Things Work
    Oct 10 2024

    NOTE: 2:45 I DID "WORK WITHOUT A SCRIPT" and so need to deconfuse the cabin story. I was 7 years old. There was no artificial light outside the cabin. I sat next to a closed window in the kitchen at night - not "in the dark" - under the bright bulb. I'lll probably re-record that part. Sorry for the confusion.

    Jesus came to tell us the Way Things Work. But some things He chose not to say, then. Now, having preached the Gospel to the whole world, all can be said.

    Thomas Aquinas, born 1225-27, was a theologian and “Doctor of the Catholic Church.” Aquinas wrote:

    Nothing should be denied the blessed that belongs to the perfection of their beatitude…Wherefore in order that the happiness of the saints may be more delightful to them and that they may render more copious thanks to God for it, they are allowed to see perfectly the sufferings of the damned.

    Hard to imagine anything more antiChrist than this declaration. Yet, whose writings have formed the basis of all Western Christian Church dogma. Thomism, not Christ.

    Aquinas had a Divine experience - a vision. He said to his secretary "Everything I have written is as straw." He repudiated all 8 million-plus words he'd written on all things Christian. He never wrote another word as long as he lived.

    Yet, those 8 million were embraced by the Roman Church and Aquinas was exalted as Doctor of the Church and Julian of Norwich was sealed into a cell. Visionaries have been repressed, accused, attacked and executed.

    Kyrie believes that last is unlikely to happen to her. Though she did say,

    "Pray for us, I'm working without a script! This information is couched in symbols as we have no capacity to fully apprehend it. But in three visions I was shown The Way Things Work. (Things being the Universe of Time and Eternity.)

  • Series 2: Visions. EP 0: Kyrie—the Way She Works and What's Coming
    Oct 9 2024

    Kyrie freaked herself out... and is tired of talking about herself in 3rd person....

    I had two crises that overlapped: I really have not shared my visions much before, then I did just throw them out there for anyone to hear. AND, I found out—even though I have done essentially zero promotion—people are actually downloading and listening to these.

    It felt a lot safer when I thought no one would until I found a way to do a bit of promotion. Not a lot, because I think the audience of the Elect is pretty small, but it would be sort of official in my mind. A Launch as it were. But then Buzzsprout sent me an email with the number of downloads in the subject line.

    Uh-oh.

    To be sure in podcast terms the numbers are small but still... so I did a mini-retreat and finally took my hands off the damned controls and let Him take care of it. (Like I said, a hard lesson for me to learn.)

    Episode 0 here is about that a bit, but more about the process I/we visionaries experience. It's about not believing just because someone (me/they) says something, and giving you a way to validate things you have heard or read that fit for you.

    Next: The Universe as Bubbles and being stuck on God.

  • What the Gehenna: a Conversation
    Oct 1 2024

    DISCLAIMER: This conversation was generated by uploading three chapters of a book I wrote about twenty years ago to Google's test program NotebookLM. I edited the result and posted it because, well, mostly because of medical issues with my speaking ability I'm not going into, but I also thought it did a good job of presenting the material. Yes, I used AI. I think that makes me a double heretic now. On with the intro...
    ----------

    What's beyond Universalism? A conversation about what it means beyond that there is no such thing as the hell we've been taught about. What more does that mean?

    This conversation covers 3 chapters from The Elephant Chronicles—a book too scholarly for bookstores and too vernacular for journals—that were gathered and posted as a PDF.

    This is way better than listening to me.

    Kyrie

  • Ep.0: What is The Heretic Christian Podcast About?
    Sep 11 2024


    "...measure these experiences according to the worship they accrue to God and the profit to your fellow Christians..." Julian of Norwich
    __________

    CORRECTION: Late in the episode, and repeated here, I said: If Espousing notions contrary to dogma... I was supposed to also say: "Maybe someone has said you are, or you believe that about yourself." I missed that. Julian's quote is right on.

    In the image that is connected to this introduction, some of the words that describe the host, Kyrie Dicentis, (me, hello) are "visionary" and "contemplative." True enough, but I'd never shared much about my own experiences, considering them to be private. But now, having read what Julian said, I think it's time.

    This podcast calls to the Elect—anyone who longs to be oned with the Absolute—the unfathomable Love and Light that we call God.

    When books and church and rote prayers are just not enough, when you long for Him, to be with Him, or if you've had an extraordinary experience and have found no one else to accept understand, possibly including you, yourself, I am reaching out to you through this podcast. The Elect need to find and support each other.

    I am Kyrie Discentis, contemplative, visionary, professional writer, newbie podcaster, Elect, universalist, with backgrounds in science, law, and miracles.

    Heresy in Ancient Greek, haíresis (αἵρεσις) meant choice. Also a way of learning about and choosing among philosophies, committing to a way of life.

    Alexandria, the center of such heretical pursuits, was home to the Catechetical School of Alexandria, the center of Christian thought and study. Scholars there included Clement, Didymus, Origen.

    CHRISTIANITY Jesus of Nazareth received messages directly from God, which is called gnosis. Jesus Christ was a heresiarch, His followers heretics. Ejected from their church, He and His followers were vilified, shunned and killed.

    "The Heretic Christian" refers to both host, Kyrie Dicentis and the podcast, itself. If Espousing notions contrary to dogma is heresy, then I am a heretic. If relating what has been given to me by God is gnosis, then I am a gnostic.

    But if I am embracing the Words and following the commands of Jesus Christ, then I am simply His follower, a Christian. What I know is:

    ~We have God in us, as we are in God.
    ~All will be saved and oned with God.
    ~The miracles in the New Testament never stopped, today is the same as then and as tomorrow.
    ~Contemplation is the highest form of prayer and you don't have to be anything special do
