That's why religion can never save anyone. Truth only comes through trusting the Lord Jesus Christ and having His Holy Spirit of discernment.
God gives free will. Would you rather be a robot? Maybe sheltered in a box to never know what evil is?
Those who choose to be blind and not to acknowledge truth is just that. Willingly ignorant.
"Wake up, O sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you." Ephesians 5:14

If God is perfect, how can he create something imperfect? It would seem pointless to punish those who he created to be they way they are.
The point is; the human body is a vessel for learning. Those who fail to learn and succumb to fear have already punished themselves.
Once religion might have been a gateway to spiritual learning, but when it turn dogmatic is like trying to learn mathematics by memorizing the multiplication table by heart. You dont get to understand the bearing principles.

God's 10 commandments shows His nature. We are imperfect. Ever told a lie? Lusted? Have hatred in your heart? Jesus is your ticket back to the Father. Read your Bible and obey His commands and He will change your heart. Your own self righteousness is filthy in front of the Holy God.

What Neals talks is about own experience of life.
Christians use to talk about others experiences of christianity, or bible.
If you say to me that the sun was great in Italy, and i believe you i will go to Itally such to see that? Or to prove your statement?
Christians and folowers are people like that. Having the experience of others.
In the end, they had no life at all.
What is sad, and sadness create a culture.

There's no true.
The true is what you built around your own reallity.
And wnhen you do that you can recognize the other's true.
True is a construction, not a status quo.

People who use to forgett this teatchings - as me - use to say, "there's common knowledge"!!
But If don't have people like Neal, they - as me - have never the opportunitty to say that.
That what we call re-membering messages.

Most people have fear of life because have fear of death. Most people never experienced death on life, or never gave inportance as life did to death. Life loves death because life needs death to know what it is.
Need is a decalration about you don't have, not about you have already. You will never remember bad lovers when you know taht that you have is what you got, right now.
The message from Neal is redundant because we all know. Neal is usefull because he remember us what we tend to forgett.

Those who know the truth will recognize the words of truth..no matter who is speaking them.
There is one truth.
Thank you Neal for sharing all this with us.

The original Greek word for sin is the same word used for when archers missed their target. To sin is to miss the target in our decisions and actions. It's more about not doing our best than not following God's laws. Jesus said if you have seen me you have seen the father. If Jesus was the loving, healing, and forgiving being portrayed in the bible than the father must be so to. He taught through parables and example not through preaching WRATH and HELL FIRE. Truly learn what his message was. |
