"I'm not really a religious person, but there was just no other avenue for me to explain anything..."

Jesus is the answer. ✝️

Yes, Christianity brainwashed me.

Now I want to:

- Stay away from drugs
- Stop watching porn
- Stay married to one person
- Forgive and pray for my enemies
- Be more like Jesus

Maybe everyone needs some brainwashing.

This verse - John 18. 6

The most dangerous lie in human history isn’t about food.

It isn’t about medicine.

It is about sleep.

For 200,000 years, humans did not sleep 8 hours.

That number was invented in 1938 by a mattress company called Simmons Beautyrest.

Before that campaign, the average human slept in two shifts.

Historians call it “Biphasic Sleep.”

You would sleep for 4 hours, wake up for 2, then sleep for another 4.

During that 2-hour window, people would pray, have s*x, write, think, and connect with their families.

Some of the greatest works in human history were created in that sacred middle window.

Shakespeare wrote most of his plays between 1AM and 3AM during his second wake period.

Mozart composed entire symphonies in what he called “The God Hours.”

Then the Industrial Revolution needed workers on a fixed schedule.

You cannot run a factory on biphasic sleep.

So they hired a psychologist named Dr. Nathaniel Kleitman to “prove” that 8 consecutive hours was the biological standard.

He faked the studies.

He was funded entirely by the mattress industry.

And the medical establishment adopted his research without question because it aligned with the factory model.

They turned the most creative 2 hours of human consciousness into a “sleep disorder.”

They called it “Insomnia.”

They medicated it.

They gaslight an entire generation that 8 hours of continuous sleep was healthy.

They pathologized the exact window of consciousness that produced some of the greatest art, music, and literature in human history.

You are not an insomniac.

You are experiencing the most natural form of human consciousness.

And a mattress company convinced you it was a disease.

Stop medicating your genius.

Wake up at 2AM.

Write the thing.

The “God Hours” are calling.

In 1986, the American Medical Association published an article titled "The Physical Death of Jesus Christ". It details the entire process of Jesus' trial to His death on the cross.

In Luke 22, before Jesus is arrested, it is written that He was in great distress & sweating blood. Although rare, it is recognized as Hematidrosis, a condition caused by high levels of stress.

At the time, the crucifixion was considered the worst death for the worst of criminals. But this is not all Jesus faced. He endured whipping so severe that it tore the flesh from His body. He was beaten so horribly that His face was torn & His beard ripped.

A crown of thorns, 2-3 inches long cut deeply into His scalp. The leather whip used to flog Him had tiny iron balls & sharp bones. The balls caused internal injuries while the sharp bones ripped open His flesh. His skeletal muscles, veins, & bowels are exposed, causing major blood loss. Most men do not survive this kind of torture. After Jesus was severely flogged, He was forced to carry His cross while people mocked & spat on Him.

Crucifixion was a process meant to instill excruciating pain, creating a slow & agonizing death. Nails as long as 8 inches were driven into Jesus' wrists & feet. The Roman soldiers knew the tendons in the wrists would tear & break, forcing Jesus to use His back muscles to support Himself to breathe. Imagine the struggle, the pain, the courage...Jesus endured this reality for 3 hours!

The Gospel of John writes that after Jesus' death, a Roman soldier pierced His side with a spear & blood & water came out. Scientists explain that from hypovolemic shock, the rapid heart rate causes fluid to gather in the sack around the lungs & heart. The accumulation of fluid in the membrane around the heart is called a Pericardial effusion & the lungs is called a pleural effusion.

To the world, Christianity is as foolish as it can get. They believe it's for the weak. But when you are confronted by the reality of the cross, it's clearly not a pretty sight. It is brutal & horrific.

This is the weight Jesus carried. The weight of the sins of the world, all so that we can live. God's wrath is fully satisfied in Jesus. This is what it took. Repent & believe! Jesus is “God among us” in the flesh. Jesus is our Savior. Jesus loves you so much that He went through this spiritual and physical punishment for your sins and mine.

Jesus is the LORD, Almighty God, Everlasting Father.

Thank You, Jesus.

Bill Clinton: “Palestinians were offered a state on the entire West Bank and east Jerusalem as its capital. Israel accepted, but Palestinians refused. They did not care about a homeland for the Palestinians. All they wanted was to kill Israelis"

This must be shared every day.
