I would like to touch up on a couple concepts involving 'hell' though. Hell does indeed exist. It is literally an existence without God. Demons can be found in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd dimensions. But they are not the evil beings most people think of when they think of demons.

Demons are cast off soul fragments from those going through the ascension process. They have no real will of their own. If you actually find yourself bothered by one, that is most likely one of your own fragments cast aside. You can try to integrate it if you want, but know that God had you cast them aside through the ascension process for a reason.

I say this not from a fundamentalist pov, but just one who had experienced consistent punishment from God, as I would not obey. (My situation was also a bit more complicated due to certain knowledge I held) God only allows those certain individuals in his kingdom who are willing to shed a great deal of their soul's individuality for the greater good. 'God' and his Angelic Soul Group are a hivemind.

That is why you hear things such as "surrender your ego" "we are all one" consistently. To be all One in God's Kingdom, people must mold themselves to a certain standard.

Source is the Universe itself. I'm not sure if you're connected to God or Source, but I advise you ask yourself what you want. Do you want to surrender to God's divine plan for you? Or do you want to create your own path?

We are all connected to be certain--even the universes themselves communicate with each other. But we are not all One--unless we desire to be.

Interesting. And please tell us how you know about this.

You do realise this topic isn't to do with Spiritualism? (see the category and umbrella heading)

Priests can be friends with parishioners they can visit occasionally.....

Isn't it obvious by now sin is something we are born into?
A result of the fall?
Hence the creation of the atoning processes by God.
For mankinds sake, having to do with conscience.
Leviticus 17:11

It's not obvious to me as I don't believe in ' The Fall ' but.... why did ' God ' give them a sinful nature in the first place ?

They say ' Sin ' originated after the naughty A&E antics but they must have had a ' Sinful Nature ' already so it couldn't have originated after them it must have existed previously

This reminds me of the chicken or egg question.

ImthatIm,

You are literally sitting on top of the answer to the question of this thread. Your sign off message: “Just because I believe it today, does not mean I will believe it tomorrow”.

Always remain open. If you tie yourself to one belief the day will come when you must defend an untenable position. Your pride might tie you to this and be an impediment to one’s own growth.

Yes, Self-righteousness can be an impediment to growth.
I like some of those Tao sayings about staying pliable.
Of course Christianity also says to be clay in the potters hands,
which also implies pliability since clay must have the right moisture
content for the potter to make a usable vessel.
