"The Culture Of The King”

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Mar 18, 2021

James and John request places of honor in the new "political kingdom". Kingdom culture is servanthood. We live in an ambitious world. Life is about winning and losing. They were dreaming of goblets filled with wine, not cups of suffering.

Culture Clash - Psychic Network Series

Contributed by Peter Loughman on Jan 3, 2010
