We're each limited to one perspective until we listen to another. Perspective is like a piece of a puzzle. Consider many perspectives...see the bigger picture!
In case you haven't yet figured this out...
Jesus already "returned".
Salvation equates to self-awareness in motion.
Today's Christianity is a house divided against itself.
Judgment is something you do to yourself.
There is no such thing as death.
All people are irrevocably a facet of God.
Dogma is antithetical to freedom.
Let's be the generation to embrace what makes sense and NOT simply what we're told to believe.
Hebrews 6 : 1 - 3
@sciencegirl You know… just in case semen wasn’t enough to ensure the highest risk of disease… let’s make sure they bleed inside and all over everything.
@nicksortor He didn't really need to shoot her, right? Ask yourself... why did she put it in reverse? Was she trying to kill? This woman did not deserve to die. And the rest of us don't deserve to be gaslit. If this sort of reaction by "authorities" becomes normal... watch out... seriously!
@catturd2 I never knew freedom of speech could scare republicans so much. If you think she should be silenced, your response is pretty stupid. Candace is doing really good exposing all sorts of people for their weakness and they're showing their true colors willingly.
@catturd2@rhiannonford2 You had a good thing going for a long while. Of course you may call anyone anything, but such a harsh response to someone who’s merely exercising freedom of speech… you’re starting to sound like a libtard.
@TomBuck The Bible doesn’t decide to believe the Bible for me. I choose what to believe & what parts I will make of highest priority. & thank goodness for the Bible, because without it no one would have any inclination how to love others and avoid complete debauchery.
…Food 4 thought.
Here you go...
Jesus, having the knowledge of our reality was not limited by doubt and understood the power of Love devoid fear. Love is the highest energetic frequency able to "move mountains". Jesus said, "believe and do not doubt, and it will be done for you". When operating at the highest frequency all other frequencies are subservient. Thus Jesus is able at will to manipulate reality to include changing water into wine.
@RamboAndFrens Do not provoke your children to anger. This is sad. This does NOT promote trust in a relationship but reinforces fear. Fear is NEVER a genuine motivator.
"Salvation" is less like acquiring tickets to your favorite music concert and more like the decision of what shoes to where on a given day. "Salvation" is not a fixed status of one's eternal destination. "Salvation" is the imminent spiritual orientation one carries at any given time. The way we have been taught about the spiritual concept of salvation is a bastardization of Judaism, when Jesus wants nothing to do with Judaism altogether.
... so yeah... mainstream understanding is WAY off!
@ScottRoberts You mean in Christianity there's something I must do to earn salvation??????????????
Think hard... Either I MUST do something or not, which is it?
As well-intentioned as he is... and I believe he truly is seeking to do good... BUT... so are children who help bake a cake and what do we get... a big mess.
All people with huge platforms can't all be correct. Take what resonates and let the rest lay.
For the record, the "kingdoms" being spoken of here are by necessity both a matter of conscious orientation.... the "kingdom of God" and the "kingdom of the world". It doesn't take a genius to then figure out how it all works.
One is either consumed by and working for temporary earthly identity and reward OR working for eternal identity and reward. Both of these sorts of people exist in every facet and walk of life and MUST... including the political realm. THIS is what makes sense. AND we need people in the kingdom of God within politics in order to be those representatives for FREEDOM.
Beware dogmatism... it opens the door for fear... Love does not do that!
When Love is who we are, it is Love who seeks to guide us in authenticity, which is to BE Love… in deed of course, but also in thought.
Despite the seemingly limited nature of this realm and all the pain that accompanies it, fear is our only true enemy.
Like Jesus, you were not only sent into this realm, you volunteered to come for precisely everything you will experience. Love cannot have it any other way. We are a product of Love not coercion.
The knowledge Jesus came bearing and to pass along is that we have no reason to fear. Embrace the totality of this earthly experience. Squeeze it for all the good you can conceive and we do this knowing it is ALL for our good!
Understand when something is good, it is eternal and transcendent. Good is never isolated to the physical. Consciousness is the benefactor.
So embrace the truth of who you are and live authentically without fear. Love is keeping you. Some may not care for your brand of authenticity, and that’s ok… it is contrast that not only provides for beauty, but becomes our barometer for growing in the gnosis of Love… our nature!
Please... for goodness sake... seriously... when I came into the following understanding, it helped clear up so much. However, we have no idea how much this simple mistake has misshapen our understanding of reality...
The "Word of God" is NOT EVER ANY form of written words. The biblical reference to "God's Word", "the Word of God" etc. is ALWAYS a reference to the Spirit of God!
We Need to get this right!
@jason_howerton The issue is no longer proving the veracity of the Bible. The issue at hand is consensus on proper (or at least most beneficial) interpretation.
@Truth_matters20 Validated? You mean validate the fact that some people think this way?
Sola Scriptura is fine. But what we really need is a Sola Interpretationa. That ain’t happening… so what’s the point?
