Hi Raggy; You ask:
Was the universe created? Did it have a beginning?

Siam says:
What do I say to this, do I get all sarcastic:
“Nuh! The universe was not created, it doesn’t have a beginning and we don’t exist.”

Or do I get into my personal belief that time exists within an eternal “big bang” Now.

I don’t know where your going with this Raggy.

Do you want me to suppose a Man God made it all…Cause I don’t.

Siam Quote:
The Christ returning is the one in our souls when we accept that we are all aspects of God.
The Father in heaven is the higher aspect of our selves.
Raggy:
Could you explain what you mean by aspect here?

Siam:
We all have a Father in Heaven.
The kingdom of God is within.
We are intrinsically linked with the God Head.

I appreciate the direct questions.
Cheers, Siam.

Raggy, I forgot to comment on this:

Isaiah 59:1-2
Behold, the LORD'S hand is not so short That it cannot save;
Nor is His ear so dull That it cannot hear
But your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God, And your sins have hidden {His} face from you so that He does not hear.

Your iniquities have made separation, one does not really exist.

Cheers again,
Siam.

I think that the disciples, being Students and followers of Jesus, learning direct from the source, that they must have spoken, taught and written in parables.

There teacher did.

As we know, the bible is not a very good tool for continuity or for straight forward advice from an omnipresent god force.
In fact the bible makes more sense taken from a standpoint of parable.

Don’t you think so.

I wanted to establish my stance on why Jesus is not worthy of being a God with seven new up-to-date reasons.

1: We all have a father in Heaven. Not Just Jesus.

2:That you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins . . . WE are all the Son of Man.

3: The Son of Man is Lord says Jesus. The Lord is part of us.

4: Exodus 20-4. "You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below”. (ooop’s most religions do just this.)

5: The God “I Am” of the Old Testament. The God “I am” has sent me to you.

6: "Why do you call me good?" Jesus answered. "No one is good—except God alone. Jesus doesn’t even want us to worship him.

7:Jesus said that the Kingdom of God is within. And the Prophets said-are we not all Gods.

We are all aspects of God. We are not separate, for how can we be.

The energy of Christ fills my being.
The Fathers Kingdom comes.
Praise the Lord/Law.

Do Christians ever wonder about this stuff?

You've taken many of the very verses that we point to as proof and turned their meaning inside out mostly through sheer ignorance. Either that or tried to put a modern meaning on a first century expression. Which seems to me rather predictable given your point of view on so many things here.

Jesus taught with parables so that people like you could listen and not hear, see and not perceive. You may go on your merry way believing anything you choose just dont bother confusing what "you hold as true" is anything remotely connected with Christianity.

Nope Rev...Just the Christians.

Hi 45;

You have said: You've taken many of the very verses that we point to as proof and turned their meaning inside out.

Oh…Like this one;
Exodus 20:3 "You shall have no other gods before me. 4 "You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below.
Where I believe Christians have made Jesus into a false idol.

Or this one;
Matt 23-9And do not call anyone on earth 'father,' for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. 10Nor are you to be called 'teacher,' for you have one Teacher, the Christ.

…Where I see us having a Father in Heaven meaning that we could all be sons/daughters of God.

Or maybe you mean this one;
Mark 2-9 Which is easier: to say to the paralytic, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Get up, take your mat and walk'? 10But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins . . . ."

Where I see the authority to forgive ones sins comes from us as we are all Son’s of Man… no matter which way you look at it.

Or you were probably referring to this one I take out of context:
Mark 12-28 One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, "Of all the commandments, which is the most important?"
29"The most important one," answered Jesus, "is this: 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. 30Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.'31The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these."

Cause’ I don’t see Jesus saying Love “ME” with all your Heart…

I love quoting this one so maybe this is the one out of context:
Luke 17-20 Once, having been asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, "The kingdom of God does not come with your careful observation, 21nor will people say, 'Here it is,' or 'There it is,' because the kingdom of God is within you."

Cause’…Gee, I think this means the kingdom of God is within…
#Silly but bein’ igrunt don’t help. #Silly

I guess this seems to be rather predictable given my point of view on so many things here.

You know, the silly stuff like Loving the Lord with all my heart, and than confusing that Lord with Karmic law.

Or believing that I have a Father in heaven and thinking that it’s a part of me and believing it’s an “energy” instead of an actual man living in the sky controlling my life.

Or how about my Christ thing, when I say that Christ is an eternal aspect of us and when we “love” ourselves we love and see God in everyone and everything.

Gosh...Why would I want to think like this. Rolling Eyes

But I have to disagree with you on this comment:
Jesus taught with parables so that people like you could listen and not hear, see and not perceive.

I think Jesus taught in parables so that the core of the bible message would not be lost through time. They are written in such a way that 2000 years later they can still touch our hearts.

And thank you for permission:
You may go on your merry way believing anything you choose just don’t bother confusing what "you hold as true" is anything remotely connected with Christianity.

Here is a word of warning. Do not confuse “Truth.”

My belief in the esoteric nature of the Bible comes from the “Truth” that historically, scientifically and by it’s continuity the Bible breaks down. It can not withstand all the evidence.

And yes there is “Proof” to substantiate the historical accuracy of the “book” in places, but it is very flimsy and it kind of reminds me of starting a search for the existence of fairies with an absolute belief that fairies exist. You will inevitably find proof.

So yeah; 45 I don’t believe, nor would I ever want to be naive enough to have to believe or have faith in anything that has passed through or been rendered by the hands of mere mortals as the bible has.

For God might be infallible, but just living has shown to me, without a doubt, that man is not.

And with the kingdom of god being within I figure I can’t miss by treating the bible as an inner map, and you know what…

Neither can anyone else.

Peace.
Siam.

All very interesting, Mr Siam.

I have been through all that stuff before. some years back, and while some of what you say has some truth to it, the end result is less than impressive.

You are skittering around the event horizon of the black hole at the center of your own private little universe, and marveling at the view.

I have no intention of trying to take the place of the LORD in any way, even if it is just inside my own feeble little mind.

God is a much Bigger, and we are a much smaller part of our own little universe than you can even imagine.

Oh...Gee. I thought I was just looking at the bible from a
Metaphysical perspective. Shocked

And as for this little bit of wisdom from you Shardikson:
God is a much Bigger, and we are a much smaller part of our own little universe than you can even imagine.

I say you are spot on.

Peace from the event horizon.

A lot of what you seem to be trying to say can be summed up in Romans 8:14-18,
Quote:
14For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

15For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

16The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:

17And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.

18For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.



but the difference is in whom you put YOUR focus. In your posting you forget that we are still the creature. but...

Quote:
19For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

20For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,

21Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

22For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.

23And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.

24For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?

25But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.


So as children of God, in Christ, we are raised above the nature of humans and are brought into glory, but when we try to raise ourselves to His level, Without the grace given us by The Christ, we will find ourselves back in the Pit.

I’m not sure why you sent me this Shardikson! It’s great, and yes this is what I’m trying to say. This is the heart of Jesus teaching.
I come across from an ego perspective and can be classified as arrogant at times, but I live not for my body, (As nice as it is.) or for the my face (Which is handsome.) but for my eternal self.

That part of "us" that is infinitely eternal.

Thank you,

A triple P.
(Pleasant Positive Post.) Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

Peace.

Siam.
