A big topic, and it's generating a lot of feelings and emotions....what would 3-d be without catalyst?
I would venture to say that there is more to the disagreement then that and that is why I quoted the above passage from christian scripture. This passage has helped me so much to move ahead in my path, and seek the truth about LOVE. I am still learning, and it is a process.
The LOO was a blessing to me the way it explained our purpose...this being a density of choice...and for me that means choosing love, and learning what that means. How can I love more authentically, more truly? What does that mean to me? I am a Christian, meaning I follow Jesus as a wayshower, and Jesus' teachings. I was born and raised in Christianity in this lifetime and others, my circle of family and friends is completely penetrated with the history and energy of christianity. Born catholic and now part of a community of evangelical Bible-believing christians, it has been a challenge to trust my inner truth to follow this "mystical" path.
I have finally let go of the doctrine! and am finally at peace with that, I embrace myself as a mystical Christian. However my friends and family have not. They are my loved ones and community. How do I best serve them?
Well I also finally learned that it doesn't work to beat them over the head with a truth two-by-four. And by that I mean, my attitude that I know the truth and they do not. The attitude that I am superior in my wisdom and knowledge of Truth . It can be very unloving.
Our global community of humanity has so many unique sparks of the Creator, there are 2 billion Christians. How will we best serve the emergence of 4-D. Criticize their viewpoint? Point out their errors of intellect? I recently left a spiritual teaching that asked me to do that. It was separating and divisive.
It left me depressed and disempowered, sad and angry. It did not work for my life, for the energy I am experiencing in my life.
I feel the Truth has to be balanced with love...and love is what we are choosing in 3-D.
Many good points have been made , I value everyone's opinion on this thread.
I would like to suggest that we approach these matters from our hearts, in a like-hearted and loving community of seekers.
I hope I am making sense.
Shalom!!
Quote:1If I speak in the tongues[a] of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames,[b] but have not love, I gain nothing.
Quote:All of us are expressing our opinions. Could it be that the disagreement has to do with whether the person is focusing on the people in the religions, or the institutions themselves?
