Continuing the previous conversation (about SOZO) we outline TWO MORE things Jesus provides…

🧩 A new pattern

⚙️ A new purpose

Both are linked to SOZO, to total salvation and redemption…

🍀

So what do they mean together?

Quite simply this…

… we’ve been pulled OUT of the old pattern and placed into a new pursuit of purpose.

👇

And, we don’t merely look to the “proof” of God’s blessings in tangible ways (only) we seek His presence…

… knowing that the blessings come…

… and come not only for the benefit of ourselves BUT ALSO for the benefit of others.

When the New Testament speaks of being “saved,” it refers to far more than how we usually define the issue. Whereas we generally denote “saved” as the forgiveness of sins, the New Testament authors ( in fact, it’s “red letter,” so it’s taught be Jesus Himself), use the word SOZO, which means—

🙏 forgiveness

🛟 physical projection

⛓️‍💥 freedom from demonic oppression

❤️‍🩹 physical healing

🪦 raising the dead

— and more.

Or, to say it another way, SOZO denotes the total coming of the complete Kingdom of God.

💥

In this episode we talk about the pivotal role John the Baptist played (the last and greatest of the old covenant prophets), comparing his position with what Jesus proposed to be available now…

… and we walk though several stories from the book of Luke where Jesus not only DISCUSSES the message of the Kingdom but also DEMONSTRATES its manifestations.

Michael Belton asked me to talk about Moral Injury… a “lesser known” (but probably “more lethal”) invisible wound than PTSD.

So, we compare and contrast PTSD with Moral Injury to set the stage.

Here’s the core of it

Moral Injury feels different, because Moral Injury starts differently than PTSD. Whereas PTSD is a response to external “triggers” (you can remove yourself from the situation or avoid certain scenarios) Moral Injury goes with you. Moral Injury IS you.

You’ve probably heard the saying "Wherever you go, there you are.” When the issue is “in you” (i.e., your conscience, your spirit), you can’t fight it or run from it.

Key differences

Note the key distinctions between the PTSD and Moral Injury:

💥PTSD

• Is a reaction to external threats
• Takes the form of fight, flight, freeze, or fawn
• Generally occurs when triggered

🫣 Moral Injury

• Is a response to internal “threats”
• Takes the form of guilt & shame
• May be constant— not just when triggered

Again, Moral Injury is not PTSD, and PTSD is not Moral Injury.

Why it matters

You must heal the KIND of hurt you have.

If you don’t identify the kind of hurt you have and also implement the correct healing protocols for that specific wound, then—

• The healing protocol will be ineffective
• The hurt will remain
• The injured person may feel “un-heal-able”
• The injured person may reach the point of despair and “give up”

For clarity, even though every “part” of you impacts the others (interdependent realization), hurts generally occur in the ways listed above. If multiple types of hurts are present, we must address each of them in their own way.
