Soul was not corrupted beyond repair.
yea but in the worldly kingdom that's low rank, both as profession and as like how the world ranks people
which really makes it interesting later on in the Bible then when you have John and Peter going out testifying to some of the world's highest ranked people, and even in the extra-biblical tradition they may or may not have testified to the world's top dogs of the time (Nero and Domitian)
***__Does human rank mean anything to you?__***
We are living in The caste system. We differ in skin color, preferences and living conditions. Countries and languages. The caste system is a part of the life system and you will have to do with it and treat people in one way or another in accordance with their social and tribal status. Just like people who are looking for the truth in life, my family. You cannot be in the world and not divide people according to group lines. Rank and caste are one of the manifestations of this part of life.
you really can't get much higher ranked in the world of their time than being the Emperor of Rome
hmmm idk
Id wager to you that the tax collector was of lower rank then the fisherman @Japheth to just the average villager
at the time
jesus took them both of course and cleansed their spirit
no the tax collector, which itnerestingly Matthew if i remember correctly was one, would be higher ranked in teh world, they'd have a better profession, be closer to the seats of worldly power, etc.
Idk i think i remember it saying in the bible that the tax collector was one of the most disliked. wonder if i can find the verse. i might be mistaken
oh yea tax colelctors are always hated in history, but they stil lrank in the world
The tax collector was of higher rank to the Pharisees for example. Because he collected their money.
i mean shit politicians are the same
To me personally, all things go into a persons rank in my eyes.
Like I said the 3 dimensions. Body, mind, and spirit.
But to others not so much.
well no in their time the Pharisees and Sadducees would be actually be the highest worldly authority in Judeaea, only the puppetk ing Herod and the Roman officials are higher, which gets itneresting in the curcifixion of Jesus as the jewish priests defer to first pupept Herod and then to Pilate, even screaming out that they have no king but Caesar
Mmm hmmm. Yes obsessed with the physical world.
Blinded to the spiritual.
well partly that, but also in a itneresting way fulfilling the prophecies and also if youthink about it because they deferred their authority to Pilate and Pilate named Jesus as King of the Jews, that means they themselves did also
which really makes sense of why they began freaking the hell out on Pilate for writing King of the Jews on the cross
no need Napoleon, the books written long before us
it's a good question for this week, Jesse got a real interesting question, very dynamic and layered, excellent question of the week, one of the best he has positted
What's layered about it? It's one simple sentence
well in terms of it and the Bible it's very good question

Yeah because the more you care about rank the more ego centered you probably are
lol commies aren't the lowest human rank, but they're pretty low, unelss they're the dictator lol
> lol commies aren't the lowest human rank, but they're pretty low, unelss they're the dictator lol
@Japheth
i think we are conceiving of "human" with a different definition
maybe
i am thinking human is worldly
Yeah to me a human is not just worldly.
so the communist dictator is still not of high human rank
albeit in the physical world he may think he is.
