Psalms 46

Luke 8:22-25

This speaker is working in the same general subject matter, as the other mentioned upload. The technique is vastly different. He is speaking to a more narrow range of audience. But this is only in part the reason his technique is so much more complex. It might be said that he is trying to include something for everyone. This would be true. But not so, only, in the way one might assume.

This speaker is working with greater usage of emotional intelligence. Here is one example.

During the first half of his message, he is more widely agreeable with the whole audience. The audience was probably composed of Christians, spiritualists, philosophers, orientalists, and mixed occultists. Somewhat after the first half he starts seeming to demand greater adherence to the dogmatism, of wrong and right. Some would find this in line with their own beliefs. Others might begin to question if that part was really meant for the likes of themselves. Yet another portion are likely to believed he was sowing his allegiance with the strict dogmas established by the more commonly frequented religions. Establishments they rejected as having any legitimacy.

I propose that he was making a stern reminder, to all the paths present. We all carry the trait of assuming we already understand good and bad. When this habit is in strong practice, we tend not to grow.

Understanding emotional intelligence, one can learn how to bother people; in a good way.

This speaker's message is intended to soak in and work over the period of a day or two. Perhaps longer. There may be immediate insight. But a larger overall all conveyance may take place in time. And not just because he provides greater sums of concept.
