The Vegetarian Christians of Early Christianity - Spiritual Awakening Radio Podcast
Tumblr media
One thing that might be rather surprising to most people that can be learned by doing a study of the gospels, acts and other literature of the Hebrew Christians -- the Ebionites -- the Christianity that Existed Before Paul -- is that, rather than some imagined Sunday school notion of a fish market in the village of Galilee being operated by the disciples of Jesus, there is significant evidence that the Original Jesus Movement and well-known apostles became vegetarians. And furthermore, this vegetarianism of the disciples and Jesus Movement is fairly widely known and mentioned by the early church fathers. It's not that this information is coming from recently discovered writings dug up in the Middle East. Rather, these are old texts that have been with us since the early days of Christianity but didn't seem all that meaningful and significant to a pro-meat carnistic population. Vegetarians however would indeed be most interested finding this out! (Peace be to you)

"Jacobus [James], the brother of Jesus, lived of seeds and vegetables and did not accept meat or wine." (Saint Augustine)
"The consumption of animal flesh was unknown up until the great flood. But since the great flood, we have had animal flesh stuffed into our mouths. Jesus, the Christ, who appeared when the time was fulfilled, again joined the end to the beginning, so that we are now no longer allowed to eat animal flesh." (pro-vegetarian early church father Hieronymus [St. Jerome] who apparently read the Gospel of the Hebrews and was influenced by Ebionite views)
"Sacrifices were invented by men to be a pretext for eating flesh." (Clement of Alexandria)
"The steam of meat meals darkens the spirit. One can hardly have virtue if one enjoys meat meals and feasts. In the earthly paradise [Eden], no one sacrificed animals, and no one ate meat." (Saint Basil the Great)

Tumblr media
This movie is gaining popularity among Christians in the U.S. and yes I have seen it.
I think of myself as a left leaning Christian and I wish I could say that Christianity played positive role in the radical movements of the late 60’s that gave our country so much progress. I wish it was possible to “reclaim” Christianity for the left.
To some extent I do think that is possible.
However, I was disappointed to find that they “strait washed” a character in this movie who in real life was a bisexual man who died of AIDS. I guess Christian cinema has a long way to go with homophobia 😞
I know the “hippies” were mostly rich, white, college educated Berkeley students who did a lot of gentrification and culture appropriation, but there WAS a movement that was actually radically against poverty, prejudice, pollution, war, and authoritarianism.
This movie is good if you are into the idea of a hippie Jesus. If you want to have a connection between Christianity and radical activism I would suggest looking into Black southern church history. If you want to learn about hippie history, I would watch “trial of the Chicago 7”
The portrayal of drug use in this movie is surprisingly progressive for what I could have been IMO. It portrays taking ecstasy at a concert as genuinely fun, harmless, and even a sweet moment between a young couple! ❤️ it is also genuinely sympathetic to people with drug addiction and doesn’t stigmatize it IMO
Idk this just ended up being a weird tangent 😅

Thoughts on Jesus Revolution
I don’t usually write movie reviews, but here I am. Sometimes a movie is impactful and I feel Jesus Revolution falls under that. It left me with a lot of thoughts and feelings. So here we go. I want to start by saying I usually struggle with films made by Christians. However, I often give them a chance because I am hoping they will capture the love and faith in Christ that I have experienced.…

Expo 72
Expo 72 was deeply enriched by the influential presence of Billy Graham, a revered Christian evangelist. His pivotal role in both organizing and actively participating in the event added a profound layer to the spiritual fabric of the gathering. Graham's inspirational messages resonated deeply, seamlessly weaving into the essence of worship, prayer, and teachings that defined Expo 72. #Expo72

Part 7B: What Does a "Relationship" with God Mean?
A strange thing happened in the 1970's--we learned for the first time that what we need is a "personal relationship" with Christ. But this terminology is not scriptural, and was left largely undefined, with curious results. What does it mean?
Here is the link to the video presentation which this linked text accompanies: https://youtu.be/T7BtX-e7SIU Slide 1. Title and explanation: You Are Not the One to Build, Part 7B What Does a “Relationship” with God mean? I grew up during the “Jesus movement” of the 1970s, which some call our last great “revival” in America.  Regardless of the actual spiritual dimensions of the Jesus movement,…

JBB's Final Thoughts Episode 44: Jesus Revolution: Truth Seekers Part 2
I saw Jesus Revolution, a movie about the beginning of the Jesus Movement in 1970s Southern California and having grown up in Southern California in the 1970s and self identified back then as a Jesus Freak I thought, this should be interesting.  If you haven’t seen the movie and want my spoiler-free take on the movie click this link to go to my review. If you have seen the movie and/or just want…

The Jesus Revolution
I saw the “Jesus Revolution” movie on Sunday. I couldn’t help myself – after all, I had been seeing many of my Catholic and evangelical friends posting on social media saying it is a must-see! I was glad I bowed to peer-pressure. Kelsey Grammar played his “pastor” role beautifully. BTW, the movie, just premiered 10 days ago. It was expected to bring in $7MM at the box office. As of yesterday, it…

A Vegetarian Saying of Jesus in the Old Syriac-Aramaic Manuscript of the Gospel of Luke: “Be on guard, so that your hearts do not become heavy with the eating of flesh and with the intoxication of wine and with the anxiety of the world, and that day come upon you suddenly; for as a snare it will come upon all who dwell upon the surface of the earth.” (Jesus, Luke 21:34, Evangelion Da-Mepharreshe — Old Syriac-Aramaic Manuscript of the New Testament Gospels) https://suprememastertv.com/JamesBean-Evidence-Jesus-was-vegetarian.pdf

Say NO to Revival
Tumblr media
From Religion Dispatches: “Americans who lean toward supporting Christian nationalism are not, as some have theorized, Christian in name only. They are significantly more likely than other Americans to be connected to churches and to say religion is important in their lives.” If this is true, and there is currently a revival going on at Asbury University, an Evangelical institution, shouldn’t this be concerning? So many people are amazed by the joy and peace these students and other attendees are experiencing, including so-called progressives and liberals, like Nadia Bolz-Weber, a tattoo’ed ELCA pastor. But this revival, in which repentance plays a vital role, will surely push oppressive and even political agendas. Asbury University condemns LGBT marriage, relationships, sex, etc. For these young people who are discovering their identity, this call to repentance at an Evangelical school is likely to convict people of things that need no convicting of, including “same-sex attractions”. For those who are having sex outside of marriage, this will surely exacerbate the mental health issues produced by purity culture. In general, the sense of shame and control that will come out of this revival is a frightening thing. As is the fact that revivals are said to fuel evangelism, especially missions. This will prove itself as a “revival” in the minds of many when there are young missionaries going out into the world trying to “save” the lost pagans of the world. We all know what violence follows this. Look up the past couple of centuries. I don’t care if these kids need this “comfort” and “hope” following the alienation of the pandemic. This comfort and hope has a dead end. Let’s be honest about that, even if we are still people who are people of conscience and faith... I say, especially if we are people of conscience and faith. To support this revival and the “renewal” movement it is allegedly producing would be to support backward values that result in psychological, spiritual, emotional, and political terrorism.
This revival just so happened to have occurred after months of Francis Chan pumping up this event, following the documentary of the last 1970 Asbury Revival, and in a time when Hollywood has been pushing Christian films and movies again, such as The Chosen and the Jesus Revolution. The latter will of course promote and whitewash the Jesus Movement, which was an essential aspect of the forming Religious Right and the project to de-radicalize a generation of potential revolutionaries.
They are trying to make Christian extremism, especially the Dominionist form, to seem appropriate, kind, loving. This is why towns like Redding, California, are run by Dominionist megachurch Christians. This is dangerous and should not be taken lightly.

It's wild how many people took Kristen's line of questioning as her saying Tracker isn't taking her religion seriously instead of what I heard her asking which was:
How many of these people would be here if it wasn't religious Coachella?

Every generation must have its own experience with God. Unless they view God as some old-fashioned killjoy. Even worse, they question whether He is even real.
