This current series on The Matrix series is sponsored by Olive Branch Community Church in Corona CA.
This weeks episode we are going to continue where we left off in part 1 where we were going through the story of “The One”
Obviously if you have not seen The Matrix this series will ruin it for you. Also the M came out a long time ago, so if its been awhile since you’ve seen it, try and check it out. It will help the things we are going to talk about here. Making things a little more clear, and likely you’ll get more out of the series.
Men- In this series the challenge I have going on for you continues. So keep on doing your best to honestly consider what kind of man you are.
What kind of a man you think you are, what kind of man others think you are, and what kind of man God thinks you are.
For those of you that have been doing that, I know that God has been showing you some good insight that you did not have before. Keep it up. There is more that God has to show you. For those of you that haven’t done that or put in much effort – there are huge blessings waiting for you if you do. Do what you need to so that you don’t forget, or put it off.
With that lets get into it…
Topic- The One.
Here is a quick re-cap to get you back to where we left off last episode-
The first part of the series we talked about the Red Pill and the Blue Pill, and our power of choice as Christians.
Part 2 we talked about “how there is no spoon.” Which is really about faith, and how biblical faith is not a blind faith.
Part 3 We looked at Cypher. How he represents our flesh, and how to fight against our flesh.
The Last Episide we began the story of The One. How The One, is the bulk of the M is about. And how the question of Neo being “the one” or not creates most of the tension in the story.
There are some that believe, and some that don’t, but the story of Neo is really about him disovering who he truly is – as a man.
He starts off as Thomas Anderson. As the story unfolds he discovers that he is The One. Something that at the begining of the story he did not even know existed. He did not even know what the M is, or anything about a prophecy, or The One. That is CRITICAL to what we are be talking about today.
We looked at a couple of people in Neo’s life. Morpheus, Cypher, Trinity, and Mouse, and how they all relate to him being The One. And we also looked at Neo himself, How he starts out in disbelief, then starts to think he may be, then the Oracle tells him that he has “the gift”, but that he is waiting for something, but doesn’t know what.
