Salvation to those whom obeyed Him, and punishment for those that went whoring away from Him. [/quote] And Jehovah went palling before his face and declaring: "Jehovah, Jehovah, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abundant in loving kindness and truth, preserving loving-kindness for thousands, pardoning error and transgression and sin, but by no means will he give exemption from punishment,..."- Exodus 34:6, 7 [/quote] Jehovah is YOD HEH VAV HEH. the Tetragrammaton. It represents the holy family of FATHER, MOTHER, SON and DAUGHTER. If an individual God had a name, it would have been Jah or Elyon. God has a wife called the Holy Shekinah. Judaism teaches this. Christian Fundies have stripped away the feminine. Judaism has no problem regarding God as Married. Christianity does. Jesus was Yeshua Bar Yosef. or Joshua, Son of Joseph. He was married to Mary Magdalene and they had children. Jewish Antiquities knows this, They have many family records. [/quote] I have heard that Christians stripped away the feminine to place more emphasis on men, and subdue women. You have any readings you might suggest so I can explore this topic? [/quote] Yes, I would go back to studying Judaism, and also Christian Gnosticism. They were the original and unchanged. Judaism has no problems with the feminine. In Rabbinic writings, Rabbis speak lovingly of Gods wife. and in Christian Gnosticism, they speak of the importance of the feminine, including many writings on the marriage of Christ. http://gnosis.org/ [/quote] Thank you , good karma for you and OP. sorry OP did not mean to distract from your original message. :hf: [/quote] Thank you Paradigm, likewise my friend ! I gave you some karma too. I recommend for starters author Tau Malachi, Here he speaks of the holy Bride http://www.amazon.com/St-Mary-Magdalene-Gnostic-Tradition/dp/073870783X/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1360645927&sr=8-5&keywords=tau+malachi And if you put his name in Amazon, youll see many more great titles. Its a good way to start off. Id also study Judaism too. although they dont allow beliefs of Gnosticism, Its interesting to see that the Jewish people believe in a real man becoming Messiah, one that had a human Father and Mother, They see nothing sinful with sex and human love. [/quote] :crazyjak: " He that comes from above is over all others. He that is from the earth is from the earth and speaks of things of the earth. He that comes from heaven is over all others. 32 What he has seen and heard, of this he bears witness, but no man is accepting his witness. 33 He that has accepted his witness has put his seal to it that God is true. 34 For the one whom God sent forth speaks the sayings of God, for he does not give the spirit by measure. 35 The Father loves the Son and has given all things into his hand. 36 He that exercises faith in the Son has everlasting life; he that disobeys the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God remains upon him." Jo3:31 [/quote] Wow, you are programmed well. No independant thinking of your own. What a shame. Youre just reduced to copy and pasting Bible verses.. [/quote] .... it really is [i]that[/i] easy.... However I'll give you this; "Keep on giving these commands and teaching them. 12 Let no man ever look down on your youth. On the contrary, become an example to the faithful ones in speaking, in conduct, in love, in faith, in chasteness. 13 While I am coming, continue applying yourself to public reading, to exhortation, to teaching. 14 Do not be neglecting the gift in you that was given you through a prediction and when the body of older men laid their hands upon you. 15 Ponder over these things; be absorbed in them, that your advancement may be manifest to all [persons]. 16 Pay constant attention to yourself and to your teaching. Stay by these things, for by doing this you will save both yourself [i]:hf:and those who listen to you[/i]." 1Ti4:11 :hf: .....second chance...? [/quote]
