Your Religious Identity Was Never Meant to Be Who You Are | Dr. Moshe Daniel • 440

Every time you say "I am a Christian" or "I am a Jew," are you limiting God in you?Dr. Moshe Daniel breaks down why the Jewish people were chosen to build the vessel for God to incarnate into humanity—and why that mission was supposed to end 2,000 years ago when Christ came. This conversation goes beyond religious debate into the Aramonic impulse keeping us attached to separating identities and why your "I am" statements are either liberation or limitation.What you'll learn:Why the Jewish covenant was meant to break open, not continueHow every identity you attach to "I am" restricts the divine in youThe difference between ego's cage and soul's true natureDr. Moshe Daniel went from Orthodox Jew to teaching the esoteric truth that runs through all wisdom traditions. After severe illness broke down his ego and religious identity, he discovered what Judaism never taught him: that his fundamental nature isn't the beliefs, body, or mind he's inhabiting—it's the pure "I am" consciousness beyond all labels.Find Dr. Moshe's video series "Israel's Unfinished Covenant”at dr-moshe.com and all links at: mindlove.com/440Ready to practice releasing your limiting identities with a supportive community?
