God is Unity and Love

[willow the wip]

Soma when ever you say for example the Lord is in charge of judging and rebuking the enemy, not the Church.

Well the Bible says we are to put on the armor and stand: Eph. 6:11-12 Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.

For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

If this is not our fight the Bible would say it is not.

yet again another thinking that is contry to the Bible.....

 

[soma]

God the Father is like the sun because He dispels the dark ignorance in the world. Even the moon is full when it faces the sun, as we are full when we encounter the Lord, but if the shadow of the earth becomes central to the full moon and the sun, an eclipse takes place. An eclipse of the mind ocurs, if any feeling of the self casts a shadow on the experience the mind is having with the pure consciousness of the Lord. This fall from witnessing I would call a fall from grace.
Selfishness is like the force of gravity, it pulls us down; therefore, to surmont it reveals a state of grace or selflessness that extablishes one in the consciousness of love. This implies a passionate knowledge of one's unity with all, which Jesus illustrated to us by laying down his life for our souls. The love Jesus showed is naturally creative and includes everyone. When we work selflessly for Christ, we experience his grace and the size and the positive love of his all-pervading consciousness.

 

[willow the wip]

having unity with Jesus is very diffrent to having unity with a moslem you spiritualize unity with unbelievers.

dosent work quite like that.

moslems teach God has no son.

not the God of the Bible.

8-) You now that this new age stuff is just a bunch of biblical distortions, right? Give me the biblical text to back up these ubsurd misleadings.

MT 28:18 And Jesus came to them and said, All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth.
MT 28:19 Go then, and make disciples of all the nations, giving them baptism in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit:
MT 28:20 Teaching them to keep all the rules which I have given you: and see, I am ever with you, even to the end of the world.[BET]

Tell me what this means to you.

 

[soma]

Your quotes tell me to spread God's word to anyone who will listen. God is giving me joy to spread to all good or bad just like the sun shines on all things equally good or bad. Yes, some people put up the umbrella of ego to block God's word, but that is no reason to throw stones at them.

So which is it soma, witness or was Jesus wrong?

 

[Soma-Sight]

Give Soma a break. He said Christ was his saviour.
He lives according to the Golden Rule and Biblical principles.

here is your friend.

January 1997 interview on CNN


Larry King: "What do you think of Mormonism, Catholicism, other faiths
within the Christian concept?"

Billy Graham: "Well I think I am in wonder fellowship with all of them."

Larry King: "You are comfortable with Salt Lake City. You are comfortable
with the Vatican?"

Billy Graham: "I am very comfortable with the Vatican."

Larry King: "You were preaching in his church (Pope) the day he was
made Pope."

Billy Graham: "That is correct."

Faith for the Family, Nov. 1982

The Religious News Service reported on January 13,1981, "Pope John Paul II was closeted for almost two hours with the Rev. Billy Graham, the world's best-known Protestant evangelist."

"Following the New England Crusade, thousands of those who came forward are now in the process of being integrated into the Catholic church. Meetings have taken place between the Graham Association and Catholic clergy for the transfer of these people to the Roman church. One such meeting took place at Pope John XXIII Seminary in Weston, Massachusetts, on the evening of June 9, 1982, when the names of 2100 inquirers were given to priests and nuns."

No, I can't give him or you a pass on this. If witnessing makes you fall from grace, then Jesus sinned. If witnessing is not important, then Jesus sinned when he commanded us to sin. There is no middle ground in this topic. Either it's a sin to witness or not. I choose Witness, because my Savior commanded me to.

 

[Gary]

Wishy-washy new-age .......

Why not quote a few Bible verses to back up your beliefs soma?

 

[Gary]

"...... If witnessing makes you fall from grace, then Jesus sinned. If witnessing is not important, then Jesus sinned when he commanded us to sin. There is no middle ground in this topic. Either it's a sin to witness or not. I choose Witness, because my Savior commanded me to.

Amen!

Soma-Sight spoke about Graham vic i was responding to her.

 

[Elijah message]

There is only one God.
God is all powerful.
Jesus said, love your brother so why do you condemn others and express love as if it is a competition? There is nothing to fear, if you walk with the Lord. Don't worry so much about others, just worry about your relationship with the Lord. One God is not going to beat up another God.

**********
Sure Eve, why not go on the 'd'evils ground & even eat the forbidden fruit, nothing to fear! And 'shun every appearence of evil? Why do that, nothing to fear from the other 'g'od? santanic FOOLISHNESS!!

[soma]

Things and people have a purpose in being the way they are.. Whatever we don't like in another is usually something we are afraid of within our own mind. While we are resisting something inside, we don't like to see it in other people, but this doesn’t make it wrong and we don't need to make judgments about it to make it true because that only makes it right for us and wrong for others.
"But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought they brother? for we shall all astand before the judgment seat of Christ. For it is written, As I live, saith the lOrd, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. So then everyone of us shall give account of himself to God. Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother's way. " Romans 14:10-13 KJV
Acceptance is the key because when we accept others, we accept ourselves and are not disturbed with the things around us; we notice that these things have a purpose in being the way they are. When you experience Jesus Christ and his pure consciousness and feel a part of life, you notice that it does not matter if something is good or bad because everything makes a difference in life. Therefore, acceptance must be practiced by observing life without judgment, living in the present moment, not attached to memories of the past nor attached to schemes for the future. Acceptance does not punish or reward a man because it is simply to help us live with happiness, health, success, sorrow, disease and failure. It helps us live in harmony with Nature's Laws, observing the law of cause and effect in perfect harmony with one's individual demands; therefore, the way to change our condition in life is to change our mind about life. Cheerful, constructive thoughts set in motion vibrations that bring us good results such as happiness, kindness and love. They propel us forward and upward, physically, mentally and spiritually because our thoughts, feelings, and attitudes provide the cause for the effects that we experience in the outer world.
"Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you." 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 KJV

 

[evanman]

"Acceptance".

It is because we are not "acceptable" to God that Jesus came and died. This was done to make us acceptable.

God does not accept us "As we are", He accepts us as Christ makes us!

Rom 3:24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

Rom 3:25 Whom God hath set forth [to be] a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;

Rom 3:26 To declare, [I say], at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.

 

[Blazin Bones]

Soma, will you please answer my Question. Was Jesus Sinning when he called us to witness or not? If you answer not, then why is it okay for you not to witness?

Evanman, I with you all the way on this one. 8-)
