We each have our own shepherds that we must convert into apostles after metanoia. The apostles are our strongholds (ousai's, your editic images or true qualities) that gather riches like a shepherd and his herd of sheep that multiply and increase for our own pleasure. They make us human and increasingly more human as they lead us further West and away from East of Eden where were born (we are now very beautiful, and we are, which nobody will deny, except . . .

Judas who represents Judaism because Joseph was a Jew and we must accept that as a given. He felt alienated so far away from Eden (we call this as sinner) and caused Joseph to abandon his ousia's who therefore were herding 'sheep' that holy night when Christ was born unto him.

Later, he becomes the enemy to overcome ("get behind me satan") until finally he is annihilated when all became clear, which is about when he spilled his guts for everyone to see.

We replaced him with Matthew (who is a liar as well or we would have taken Justus) because we prayed about this to say that it was inspired to chose Matthew the new faith builder and betrayer down the road when we get lost and beyond theology where and when Christ will be reborn in us.

So relax, your friend is OK. Just feeling alienated and finding intimations with immortality because her apostles die hard.

Do you ever notice that people give you sort of a blank stare with that glazed-over look in their eyes? Ever wonder why that is?

Yes but most people know that I am here for my own pleasure and not to teach others. I try to do the literary side of the bible where inerrancy if found and it seems to work for me.
