Leo . There are two kinds of Christianity: One is loud ,doctrine shouting and in your face, It drives the educated, who promote most effective change or at least antipicate the changes, into anger as faith is the most personal of issues. most of the shouters don’t want to debate with
those offering different interpritations that might threaten the beliefs of others with new truths.they have not the intellectual power to question their own beliefs. and keep searching for deeper understanding.” Seek and ye shall find ,knock and the door will be opened for you”.
The second kind of Christian heeds Matthew 6:22…
.
“Meditate and let thine eye be single and thy body will be filled with light.
this is as simple as I can retell it…..If you shout you only add to the confusions ,if you button up and go inward you will meet unimaginalble Love.
For those who mature in understanding and faith the effort to make union with the Almighty ALWAYS, leads inward ,it depends on no doctored scriptures nor the rantings of those who beleave their vocal efforts can really disclose the “Beatific Vision”.
Most will never understand that looking to public
expressions (ie Preaching) or public external worship only seperates one from those who have other contradictory beliefs.
“If you can’t find it inside yourself ,where do you go to look for it?”
you must close the eyes to see the light .
Those who love the Lord don’t gumbeat others ,they
quietly manifest Love and consideration for all forms of personal worship. ( there is no seperation in Reality)
if they feel the need to prostilize, they make sure that they have really understand the underlying message and share it in wisdom not in paraphased scriptures and with untenable beliefs .
Your quoting of Old Testament and trying to use the Hebrew Bible to verify the man God interactions of the Hebrews
only reveals a jealous and spiteful war God, who Directed rape pillage and Murder, Yesu came to change this evil, expansionist ,doctrine, He knew all would receive welcome in their Fathers house if they loved one another and ceased public worship and went inward .
Preachers,even the best of them only rattle the cages and prisons of mind error,while feathering their nests with the offerings of the gullible
Meditators furnish their own proofs by directing the longing for union inward .
Jesus hated public prayer this is why he utilized Parable to make his followers think and then meditate.
He felt most prayer was useless mummery and so he only gave us a single prayer of Thanksgiving.
this was in contridiction to the noisey public worship of the Temple priests.
Quoting is not enough and intellectualizing tampered messages only lead to more spiritual confusion and seperation .This is likely why Jesus never wrote to circulate his message.
HE made meditation and love his entire issue ,remember He came not to change the Law only to amplify it.
he claimed no more greatness of spirit than all others and refered to himself as the “Son Of Man”.
When followers, much later wanted to replace his Jewish reform attempts with Constantine and the Nicea counsel monarchically elevating Rabbi Yesu to “God Status” and creating a Triune God out of the “One”
an image hateful to those who had kept his instruction via Gnostic ,oral ,retellings and needed to Know the One, rather than believe.
Jesus did not, I say again, did not split the nature of the ONE, to elevate any mortal man with all his failings and yes even Christ demonstrated some of these characters flaws himself,and was a real man man himself ,you can believe that Jesus
himself was a wonderworker and savior and guide without adding the “Holy Ghost ” a pagan tale long believed throughout the Empire before the coming of Jesus.
If you need miracles and risings from death to understand or know,
you miss the essence of the Good Masters teachings . Stop thinking so your mind can bask in the Eternal Light. and if you must preach,make sure that you have ernestly studied everything attributed to Jesus,no matter what the source.
and you have a good knowledge of History (ie, His – Story). otherwise leave the contradictory and tampered Roman belief system alone. ,
Thank you “MamaDaddy” for giving me the chance to share my lifetime of study with our good brother Leo, and Brother Leo, you need not send me any offering for this “Sermon on the Cliff”
Reverend Arnold doesn’t need any either.
Please just feed the next poor family you encounter or at least send some cash to my favorite charity.”Smile Train” ,they repair thousands of cleft pallets so the children can sing God’s praises with the miracle of repaired faces and mouths.Acomplished by Surgeons taught in Latin.
See even Jesus couldn’t repair those however he was sure ,If we understood his message that we could do even greater works than he. Rather than close with AMEN I’ll close with ALLMEN.
