Logic dictates, if God is infinite, then it's turtles, all the way down.

As for double meanings.
Jerusalem was the religous centre of God
Now the Capital Market is the religous centre of the 'new' God, money
Babylon was the centre of worship for the devil and now the world is a worshipper of sin.
The 'fall' of Jerusalem is not the fall of Jerusalem but that of the Capital Markets
The 'fall' of Israel is that of the world's currency, the dollar and the world's economy

I find it interesting about what was said in that article:

"The question of how many people have ever lived on Earth is a perennial one among information calls to PRB. One reason the question keeps coming up is that somewhere, at some time back in the 1970s, a now-forgotten writer made the statement that 75 percent of the people who had ever been born were alive at that moment."

Correct. The Kingdom of God is NOT inside most of these socalled Churches, where evil and Satan dwell in all their glory.

Ever wonder why the very sources that cast out devils are just burgeoning with them????

For myself, it´s my heart straight to my God. Period. And I have tried many religions, but since man himself is fallible and weak, it always plays out the same, with me being once again disallusioned and disenchanted.

God knows me and loves me, and I know Him and lean on His Love, Grace, Support and Protection.

Treat others as you wish to be treated, and love God with your whole heart, mind, soul and being, and everything else will fall into place.

That is the TRUE Golden Rule.

Blessings.

Re: Jesus said "The Kingdom of God is inside you and all around you, not in mansions of wood and stone. Split a piece of wood and I am there -- lift
I truly believe this. I don't go to church. When I do (which is very rarely, I am usually dragged there) I find it hard to listen to anything that they say. I believe that if I wanted to pray or worship in anyway shape or form there's a perfectly good tree outside my house in which to do it, or just pray within myself. If I am supposed to pray in the house of god then it better be the true house of god, not in something that was built by man. I can't bring myself to absolutely believe in a religion, because any religion, doesn't matter how you look at it can be falsified. I find it best to remain neutral in every aspect of this world. There are so many things we don't understand and can't even begin to comprehend, so who is right - who knows? Is your religion the absolute truth? PROVE IT!
 Quoting: Harsesis 822519


The whole purpose of church, especially Catholic Mass, is to participate in the remembering Jesus. Believe it or not, you may know Jesus and his two commandments, but humanity will forget without ritual. How did the message get from 2000 years ago to now? Through ritual. Try passing a message around a classroom by whispering it to the next person. The message is severely distorted after 15 to 30 people.

What I say above is the PRIMARY purpose of going to Mass or a church service. You may personally never forget the message of Jesus, but for the person who hates the way their parents went about forcing them into a religion, the subsequent generation may never be taught about Jesus. Without a foundation of where behaviors originated and why, the beautiful message of Christ could be lost within 100 years. This is very hard to believe, but it is possible. A group of people who are willing to admit that human memory is fallible should find it their duty to continue the rituals and sacraments that keep Jesus Christ in our collective memory.

Study the origins of Christianity (The Way), and you will find that God did incarnate on this Earth. I know this because powerful, corrupt men can co-opt a great idea, but they cannot create it and then run it. Think about that for a while. A miracle occurred 2000 years ago, and it is our responsibility to make sure it is never forgotten. If you can think of a better way to hold the memory in humanity's mind than others then go for it because we should all try our hardest to keep Jesus alive in our minds and hearts.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1010794


Were YOU there? I dont think so,You only know what you have been told,Generation after generation.Have you ever researched your religion,I have,It's DARK and millions died.Try a little research even though your told it's sacreligious to do so. I promise lightning will not strike you.
 Quoting: JimBomB


You miss the point. I make reference to the corruption through the ages which makes it even more amazing that the message of Christ lives on today.

Do you think the owners of the Federal Reserve could come up with the ideas of Christ (assuming they were not known yet)? Then do you think they could carry them forward 2000 years. In no way am I condoning corruption and death by what I am writing. Men will always co-opt a big idea for their advantage and then the killing begins. It does not mean that it stays that way.

Look for the word life

The kingdon of god is inside you and all about you

What is inside you, the LIFE force your heart and your lungs etc what is all around you when you look around LIFE.

Not in mansions of wood and stone:

a church is just a building for people to come and be together.

Split a piece of wood and i am there lift a stone and you will find me:

when you split a piece of wood you find the sap the LIFE force of the tree when you lift a rock you will find LIFE slugs and beetles and worms

This is the interpretations of the true sayings of JESUS

Look around you and think what the word LIFE really means to you.

it is not IN a person

Dear one, you have just posted absolute bullshit. And the church has also left this out. Heaven IS within YOUR SOUL. SO IS GOD. And the FAther is going to manifest in due time on that world when most of the people of this world have learned the Father is within them and not before. There is no reason WHY this world cannot be part of "heaven." Heaven is not some fluffy something.

"Canon 14. We prohibit also that the laity should
not be permitted to have the books of the Old or
New Testament; we most strictly forbid their having
any translation of these books."
- The Church Council of Toulouse 1229 AD


The Council of Tarragona of 1234,
in its second canon, ruled that:

"No one may possess the books of the Old
and New Testaments, and if anyone possesses
them he must turn them over to the local bishop
within eight days, so that they may be burned..."

One of the great wonders of the world to me is how anyone could claim to be a Catholic and still believe the Bible is God's Word. Even the Catholic 'Douay' version of the Bible condemns the Catholic faith repeatedly.

Not unlike the posters on GLP with all that info which is proven because they get banned...

On these matters, I know what I know... I'll be accused of being a ignorant and unfaithful before my heart will move to these matters.

As a former Catholic, the words were spoken to my heart but God gave me not the sense to hear.

I won't accuse you of anything other than following your inner conviction which is all I would ever hope for you in the first place.

GLP posters with all what 'info'? That christianity was made up by Augustus? They could have also been banned because of personal dispositions held by one or more mods.

The last statement as a former Catholic... What words were spoken to your heart but did not hear?

I have nothing against any individuals in any religion. My beef is literally with the spiritual forces.


I am interrested in learning more about your knowledge in these matters. I have heard the theory before but it didn't offer up any kind of proof... But archeological evidence seems to prove that the Romans had a hard-core vendetta against the christians... and then later the RCC and EO churches agains the 'heretics' (those who choose to follow their conscience).
 Quoting: GUANO


I am suggesting that the persecution of the Christians by the Roman emperors created the necessary preconditions for it's eventual success during the reign of Constantine, which coincides with the codification of the canon. I don't think any of this would have been possible without the heavy involvement of a cult within the Roman elite, dedicated to the Sun Gods... the establishment of sun worship in the guise of monotheism under Constantine being roughly equivalent to the take over of Imperial Egypt by the Sun Cult of Nefertiti.

As a young Catholic, I always spoke to God, but never Jesus... it seems I simply ignored him. As I grew older and learned more, I discovered why this was the case... hmm

Science estimates that 106 billion peeps have lived on Earth, so where are all the graves? Where are all the bodies? Where are all the skeletons in our closets? hmm

I find it interesting about what was said in that article:

"The question of how many people have ever lived on Earth is a perennial one among information calls to PRB. One reason the question keeps coming up is that somewhere, at some time back in the 1970s, a now-forgotten writer made the statement that 75 percent of the people who had ever been born were alive at that moment."

Just how long dew you think humans have inhabited this planet? chuckle

Even the Catholic Bible states in Matthew 23:8-11, "But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren. And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ. But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant." Simply stated, the Bible condemns allowing ministers to come between us and God.

Do this in rememberance of me.....

Mass..RC, early coptic, as well as Eastern Orthodox preserve many of the early practice as layed down by Peter and Paul and the other Apostles.

Church history is a interesting study which should be taught in all Western and Eastern schools as it pertains to our present belief system.

The lies taught you via the public system need to be exposed for what they are.

True the so called Church strayed yet it always had a remenent in tack.

We are not above our master...The Lord Jesus Christ.
