It helps exercise the heart and mind so that we know we are always learning where we stand or what we need to learn. I have a good balance with other parts of life, but it is the inner life that determines our eternal life and that is the source of greatest joy. I study the internal sense of the Word, which ‘Rethinking Redemption’ is all about.(less)

Man’s Experience of Hell


Malina reveals the dynamics of how the society was consumed in the art of manipulation and thus spiritually vacuous. Malina writes, “The people in our period perceived God, gods, and their agents—spirits, demons, angels—as necessary to maintain equilibrium.”

“The Second Coming of Christ is essentially the revealing of the internal sense of the Word.”
Steve Sanchez, Rethinking Redemption

“So, Mary is on fire with both love and awareness, for these two together increase each other into sacred passion. She defies all custom, seizes the moment, rushes in, and, full of reverence, washes His feet with her tears and anoints His head with precious spikenard oil.”
Steve Sanchez, Rethinking Redemption

“The exponentially increasing formula (that leads to the resurrection) is that the more Christ overcame temptations and purified His human, the higher His quality of love became, which in turn led the hells to attack with increased force at the higher level. When He then overcame that temptation, His quality of love increased again, and so on and so on to the point of infinity.”
Steve Sanchez, Rethinking Redemption

“How can we fully appreciate the redemption Jesus performed unless we fully understand from what we were redeemed?”
Steve Sanchez, Rethinking Redemption

“Contemplate for a moment hiking up a wild and rugged mountain. The mountain itself is a challenge, as well as the experience of beauty and danger. To reach the top, a person must persevere. The higher one goes up the mountain the more one can see of the landscape around. There is, in seeing an expansive view, a natural delight and exhilaration that anyone who makes the effort feels. This natural delight corresponds to the spiritual joy of gaining a higher perception of life. Mountains correspond to heaven. The delight of gaining an elevated view on a mountain is the reflection (correspondence) of spiritually gaining wisdom in one’s soul.”
Steve Sanchez, Rethinking Redemption

“We can see from our human experience that battling temptation requires that we persevere in keeping faith in the Father from our own will however faltering it may be. It is only an appearance that the Lord leaves us alone; in truth He is closest to us during our greatest trials and lowest times.”
Steve Sanchez, Rethinking Redemption

“The exponentially increasing formula (that leads to the resurrection) is that the more Christ overcame temptations and purified His human, the higher His quality of love became, which in turn led the hells to attack with increased force at the higher level. When He then overcame that temptation, His quality of love increased again, and so on and so on to the point of infinity.”
Steve Sanchez, Rethinking Redemption

“The Lord came into the world and lived all that was prophesied about Him. Thus, He embodied divine truth and fully became divine truth in fulfilling each and every prophesy, including the last one which took place on.”
Steve Sanchez, Rethinking Redemption
