Ah, so it's you who has the agenda

Your thoughts DM, ( your agenda ) create your reality ( thinking I have an agenda)

Thank you SW, I love quotes from different Religions /Beliefs that show individuality in oneness.

With your dedication and work ethic, I believe they would change the forums name from "Spiritual Forums" to "Spiritual (Christian) Forums".
And instead of that white flower (is it a lilly?), they'd put a Cross.

When I go out to do routine outreach to the lost souls, I look at your work ethic here as something to emulate. We need such in Christianity honestly speaking. Just observing this is encouragement to me and I believe it should be too to other Christians.

I try to work towards feeling ' Compassion ' for all Sentient beings every day, compassion doesn't need a Religion....

I do stumble though

You have 6988 posts and a good number of threads, what percentage of these have been "in compassion"?

Although your post was directed towards some one else, it did raise a question with me.

Do you differentiate in any way between Jesus and "the Christ"? What is your understanding of "Christ as the reality" ?

still, no they're the same really I believe, there are differences but they are one in the end. there's only one Christ but many individuals and that sort of thing
I just think Christ is an experience of God so a kind of reality

I hardly think so :)
An ant has an agenda, it wants to live, to find food, whatever ant's believe in doing. that's my definition of agenda, what you wish for and want. The negative sense of the word, that's fair enough i meant everyone has an agenda in the positive sense. so yes, you are saying you have an agenda but not in the negative sense that's fine we agree!
