The Gospel is not the message that we win because others lose. The Gospel is that all win because one lost that all might live — and it’s the greatest honor to live now as the very body of that One —the Body of Christ. How do two become one body, Bride of Christ? We call this incident in John Chapter 2, “the cleansing of the temple.” John doesn’t call it that. He knows that Jesus doesn’t cleanse His temple with a whip; He cleanses it with wine, blood that’s wine. Everything exists and is maintained so that you and I would witness the sacrifice of the Lamb and freely choose to sacrifice like the Lamb, that we would become who we truly are: The Body and Bride of Christ, that we would learn to love LOVE, who is our bridegroom.

They tackle questions about identity, separation, and the deep-seated human tendency to turn away from the light. Drawing on John’s words, they reveal how Jesus steps into our darkness, not as an external Savior but as the light within, piercing through our blindness and resistance to illuminate the truth of divine love. This eye-opening discussion challenges viewers to confront misconceptions and discover the radical, inclusive love of God.
