God never wrote any thing I never said he did.
Therefore you misrepresent me in the forum by lying.

Are you willing to acknowledge that the ones referred to as "morning stars" in Job 38:7 are angels loyal to God?

Thanks, Cooperton. You've been very cordial...and I appreciate it. I really do. (even though I do believe you hold the Bible as being inerrant). Correct me if I'm wrong.
Anyway, I do thank you for your kindness...even if we disagree on things.

Ironically, most Christians don't accept my testimony because it involves a higher purpose for humans in THIS lifetime NOW (see John 11:25-26, emphasis on verse 26). Many put Jesus on the pedestal and isolate themselves from the very process of transformation that he was directing us towards.
The etymology of matrix is breeding mother, and it is derived from the latin 'mater' which is also the derivation of the word "matter". This material world is like an incubation chamber for spirit to develop - to be born again so to speak. If you are interested in the earthly mother and the womb in which we are developing (John 16:21), I would insist you read the teachings of the Essenes:
Essenes book 1
Essenes book 2
Essenes book 3
These go into detail about renewing yourself in the mother's womb in nature to develop into spiritual consciousness. It is not that we are supposed to escape the matrix, but rather, come to be in its control seat. This is what Jesus (and Buddha, etc) were doing when fasting in the wilderness for extended periods of time - which resulted in them being offered endless material splendor because they had become kings of the matrix, rather than its subjugates.

Wow....so you have delved into the Essene's teachings, too. Cool. Well, that explains your cordiality. LOL.
The Essene's were also vegetarians, I believe. What are your thoughts on the Demiurge?
Yeah they were raw vegetarians from what I've read. From my own experience, I realize such a diet to be most conducive for my faith/certainty. As Paul says, those lacking in faith should stick to vegetables, whereas those with complete certainty can eat whatever they wish (Romans 14:2).

One thing everyone familiar with it knows God's name Jehovah.

Who is called by Jehovah's name?

No, people killed people, and may have twisted God into an excuse to do so. You need to learn how to discern reality, but then you are only using these things as an excuse.

I'm trying to figure out if you are being sarcastic when quoting that verse from Paul, or serious. That verse from Paul clarified even more to me, that there were sects of Jews who did not eat animals...and were against animal sacrifice. There are hints to this all throughout the NT. If it wasn't an issue, then Paul would never have even made that distinction...and I believe James was teaching vegetarianism.
I stopped eating animals after Passover of 2014. Once I figured out Paul was false, I wanted to keep the feasts. I had been studying them earnestly and my heart was to simply obey and please the Father (whom I still saw as YHWH at the time).
I made the Passover that year, just between me and the Father. Well, the strangest thing happened that day. I have a BUNCH of animals....5 dogs, 4 cats, 3 goats, chickens...yea, always loved animals and have rescued, saved, many. Still, I ate them. Never thought much of it.
So, that day, I started to cook the lamb. I had this little dachshund named Waylon (also had his brother Willie). Well, as soon as the smell of that lamb permeated the house, Waylon wanted outside BAD. I let him out, where he ran to the back yard, turned towards the house and started barking like crazy. I was trying to figure how what the heck he was upset about. I went out to get him and when I picked him up, he was shaking like a leaf. He did not want to go back inside. I left him out and tried a few times to bring him in, but as soon as I'd set him down in the kitchen, he wanted back out.
Well, after the meal I put some juices of the lamb over the dogs food. Waylon was hiding under my bed by this time and when I put the dogs food out, he wouldn't touch his. I'm scratching my head, thinking "WHAT has gotten into you??". My youngest son (being Mr. Curious) decided to google "why don't dogs like the smell of lamb" . There were thousands of hits...it's some weird phenomena that certain dogs, doesn't matter the breed, are repulsed by it....I mean, literally freaked out.
The only thing different about Waylon from my other 4 dogs, was he had almost died a year prior....been run over by a car in the neighborhood. I'm thinking, can dogs have NDE'S? I don't know. I had to put Waylon to sleep a few months later. He had a perforation in his abdomen from being run over, that went unnoticed. One day, he started throwing up. When I took him to the vet, they said his stomach was literally in his chest cavity. I had to put him down. It was a horrible day. I watched his "spirit" leave his little body. They have them too...animals I mean.
After that Passover meal, all sorts of things started happening to me. It was like "God"...was leading me in a totally different direction. He's always used animals to show me things. It's hard to explain, but all these "synchronicities" started occurring. It's too much to try and put down here, but long story short, it led me to stop eating them. My heart was literally broken when I SAW what we've done to them...just broken.
I don't have it all figured out, Cooperton...not by any means. All I know is the little bit I've been shown. Becoming aware is hard though...really, really, hard.
I don't like this world. I really don't.

Interesting stuff. Animals are truly something special and our disharmony with them is indicative of many things in my opinion. "wasn't my milk enough for you?" Cried the cow as he was lead to the slaughter. Isaiah saw a golden age of vegetarianism for ALL creatures (Isaiah 11:6-9). Something interesting to note - eating animals was not a decree until after the flood (Genesis 9:3), prior to the flood the command was to eat plants and fruit (Genesis 1:29). Even more intersting to note - after the flood is when people's lifespan decreased to a cap of around 120 years that we observe in our contemporary world.

Just because we are bible believing Christians doesn't mean we have to agree.
This we know about you is you are not a Bible believing Christian.

I said he was but he wasn't the bright and morning star. But the preserved scripture is still son of the morning not morning star because it causes confusion nothing the Devil would like more than people to think that he is the morning star and Jesus is the morning star so people would question and doubt.

Tsunamis are the result of shallow earthquakes which are naturally caused by crustal movement and slipping, but if you want to blame that on God, that is your choice even though it is epic in it's ignorance.
