Ocean of Ontological Light Podcast
Join me on Spotify and Anchor for my Ocean of Ontological Light podcast where I explore topics related to the depth of our ontological reality in Christ. The Bible references the ocean to be like the deeply hidden realities of our spirit.
“Have you entered the springs of the sea, And walked in the depth of the ocean?” (Job 38:16'; NASB 2020)
While it is impossible to tread the depth of the oceans, it is possible for us to know our own depths and the depths of God because He has given us His Spirit:
But as it is written:
“Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,
Nor have entered into the heart of man
The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.
But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.
These things we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.”
(1 Corinthians 2:9-13; NKJV)
In the Ocean of Light podcasts, I examine spiritual truths that help us get a handle on the inner realities of our spirit’s new creation in Christ, so that we can live the scriptural admonition:
For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), Ephesians 5:8-9
Our spirit is the depth of our being and it does not abide in poverty or lack, but can actually live within the depths of Christ’s Light and live out His amazing New Creation Life.
Speed of Trust.
Here I discuss the important topic of Trust. Relationships only move at the speed of Trust and our relationship with God is no different. In this episode I help you investigate the meaning of trust and how it is to be gained in your heart.
Skillful Vision
We may not think of spirituality being a skillful art, but it can and should be. In this episode I delve into Loving God as a skill that can be developed by good spiritual practice.
The New History.
In this episode, I delve into our "two histories" -- our "me" history in this world and the New History God offers us in His Son. We all have an auspicious history, one of complete wholeness and victory -- and it is found, not in ourselves, but in Christ. Join me as we explore this way out of the sad and gloomy results of being stuck in the "me-history" of our ego and into the glorious results of a new history in the Son.
The Joyous Realm.
In this episode of An Ocean of Ontological Light, I discuss the inherent nature of Joy within us springing from our union with the Life of Christ. Everyone seeks happiness in life, but where does this ontological urge come from? and what satisfies it? Here I reveal that the source of or drive for happiness is in God Himself and the way to it is to turn from the world's counterfeit forms of happiness and turn into our spirit to enjoy Christ.
The Great Friend.
The spiritual life requires the most excellent Friendship imaginable: Friendship with God! In this episode I look at the desire of God to walk within us, Face to face as our Great Friend and Great Savior.
Love’s Current
The mystics summarize the spiritual journey into God as "Love Loving us into Love". The truth is, Love is a powerful, dynamic energy or current leading somewhere. It is leading us to the Lover. There is no separation between Love and the Lover, Who is God. When we step into Love, we are stepping into a movement, a current, leading us into God as He is in Himself. This is the "Divine Spell", that as soon as we love anything, we are beginning to touch the currents of a Love behind all lesser loves, that begins to draw us into our conclusion which is God Himself.
Join me in this rather radical and little known reality about love that can revolutionize your relationship with God.
