@TJLakers01 We find serenity in the acceptance that we all belong to God, without exceptions.
In the end we are all just children trying to figure this thing out.
Thought you would like this excerpt from the first book of Adam & Eve:
Again said God unto Adam, "All this misery that thou hast been made to take upon thee because of thy transgression, will not free thee from the hand of Satan, and will not save thee. "But I will. When I shall come down from heaven, and shall become flesh of thy seed, and take upon Me the infirmity from which thou sufferest, then the darkness that came upon thee in this cave shall come upon Me in the grave, when I am in the flesh of thy seed.
Two nations, led by faithless leaders.
How arrogant must we be to defy Godโs commandment and assume our judgment is superior โ all while governing two of the most devout populations on Earth.
โThou shalt not kill.โ (Exodus 20:13)
I have reviewed the Torah, the Quran, and the Old Testament โ sacred texts that share striking similarities โ and found no footnotes, no exceptions, no amendments to this divine command. Nowhere does God say, โThou shalt not kill โ unless...โ
These are the laws upon which your societies were built. It was your choice to be faith-bound nations.
Yet how boldly we invent justifications to kill one another, believing that remorse and pleas for forgiveness will wipe away our deliberate disobedience.
Did scripture teach us to kill in order to avoid being killed?
Or did it teach us to build a world where such choices need not exist?
The foundation of every nationโs laws โ at their origin โ was rooted in faith. And at the root of that faith is Love.
There is only Law: Love. Without it, there is nothing.
Enough of the rationalizations. Enough of the bloodshed.
Itโs time to lead โ truly lead โ your people toward peace, toward harmony, toward the divine purpose you claim to serve.
