Hi kjw,

QUESTION: What DIFFERENCE does it make what[ever] a person believes, as long as he/she ACTS [and speaks] appropriately, i.e. as a christ-like and/or god-like person?

I really want to know! Can you please enlighten me?

Thank you,

David

Maybe someone else would like to jump in since kjw is no longer on the forum.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru

John 4:22-24--The Father is searching for ones to worship him in spirit and truth. The word RIGHTeous says it all. God doesnt accept lies or deception. Many spots in the Nt says one must come to an accurate knowledge. Phillipians 1:9--1Timothy 2:4-2Tim 3:7- i am kjw

Hi All,

An interesting and informative albeit [somewhat] contentious thread!

I would like to offer two quotes [one about Jesus, and one from Jesus] that I believe shed some light on WHY there is so much difference of opinion/viewpoint/understanding of the Christian-Judaic bible:

"All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them:" (Matthew 13:34 KJV)

"I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now." (John 16:12 KJV)

Question(s): Did Jesus not speak in parables as a [spiritual] "protection" to his audience(s), i.e. to those not yet ready to understand and therefore "bear" [the resulting responsibilities]? Could the Christian-Judaic bible not have been written in the same "way" and for the same purpose?

Question(s): Was the second quote [above] not spoken to [arguably] the most spiritually advanced men of his time and place? And yet, clearly, as a protection to/for even them?

Just my two-cents worth,

David

Hi kjw,

Question: Is not the WHOLE/COMPLETE purpose of "com[ing] to an accurate knowledge" in order to act and speak "RIGHTeously?"

It is actions [and words] that first-and-foremost count, i.e. not doctrine, eh?

Just asking,

David

Re his last supper statement...hmm, I never thought of it as protection ....but that it was SO incredible
they could not grasp it...another word when translated.
People think everything is in the Bible - far from it! His closet disciples couldn't hear what he had to say
after 3 years! And 3 of them saw him turn into light!
So what could it have been!?

Some think otherwise.... To each their own.

1 Corinthians 12:4-6 KJV.
' Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.'

God had a single religion in the OT. Jesus started a single religion-unified in thought( all of Gods truth) no division-1Cor 1:10= 1 single religion.
