2007.11.10 World Religions and Surrender

I see a discrepancy: the first post is credited to Monica, but this quote cites DreamingPeace.

DreamingPeace was my username before I was invited to become a moderator. Sorry for the confusion!

Wouldn't Carla count, as a devout metaphysical Christian and, certainly, a scholar and enthusiast of the Law of One?

I think she definitely would count!

And, I know of others who are religious and students of the Law of One, even though they've never read the books. Let's remember that the Law of One is not the books. The Law of One is just described in the books.

I found the OT god image to not be god at all. ... The LOO allowed me to look with reason into the Bible, instead of just accepting it. Once I did this, I could see God in certain places and in other places I saw ways of man.

I had a similar experience. I had already concluded, before I ever read the Law of One, that the Bible was not what I had been taught. If anything, the true 'test' was to be able to discern which elements of the Bible were 'of God' and which were not.

I felt a bit nervous about what I was thinking, due to the programming of my upbringing (to never question the Bible). Reading the Law of One helped validate what I had already concluded.

The LOO also allowed me to find God in all religions, as well as find ways of man in all religions.

Yes, me too!

The LOO helped me move away from the fear that my childhood religion placed in me.

Me too!

All the while I was not alone...I always was given comfort through this transition.

You are blessed! I felt alone during part of this time, which I understand now was part of the process in my case.

Instead of having comfort from other humans I began receiving comfort from my higher self and the Holy Spirit. Its nothing less then magnificent and miraculous.

AMEN!!!
