Hi Christ!,
Thank you.
The true Creation of GoD is the Son of God. The Son of God is Christ. Christ is the "Kingdom of God". The Kingdom of God is "within" you because you are Christ.
Christ is hidden underneath a "bushel". The bushel is "the universe". The universe is a manifestation, a confusion...a darkness that covers the glory of Christ with its own grandiosity.
Yet, the universe contains those whom are awake as well as those who are asleep.
See, "the universe" if it were true and real, would symbolize Christ "dead"...Christ "crucified".
Why?

Tsk Tsk! Way to show the typical hypocrisy that is so well associated with those of the Christian cult. Way to shine that Paul light bright! Lest you lie, shall I mosey on through the thread and pick out some of your lovely and kind words to badmedia and myself?
The innocent act isn't working as well as you think it is. Funny how you can't take what you dish out.

Direct it towards me ..the one who you have disdain for ...not them ..
Otherwise I am done ....I wont let you hurt their feelings because of me.
It is prophesied in Zachariah (I think- somewhere in the Old Testament) that two "shepherds" will come. Jesus was the first but they will reject Him (this happened) but another will come, the Antichrist, who the Jews (and world) will accept as a whole. Of course there will be dissenters at the time but for the most part, many will accept the "wicked shepherd" after rejecting the "good shepherd."
In the New Testament, Jesus again warned the unbelieving Jews of His time this would happen. He said although He was rejected, another will come that the people will accept. Not sure how this will play out but I think they will accept the Antichrist for a little while as their Messiah but after he breaks the peace treaty, many will open their eyes and see.
It is interesting to see exactly how many religions are looking for their "Messiah." Even Christian preterists expect the Second Coming to occur without any tribulation, Antichrist, and all the other "end time" events. The only people who know to reject this supposed person and wait for the "real thing" are Christians who see Biblical prophecy in the futurist sense. The resounding warning is to not be decieved when you see this individual.

oh.. that's right. I should just believe it because Paul says to?
How does a Christian not realize that we are living in the Last Days when the old rules do not apply and the gate has been opened to bring in the Nations into the fold and being of any particular ancestry becomes meaningless?
I'm curious, how does a "christian" not realize they are a jew?
You can see this where Jesus left his family and stayed in the Temple to do his Father's work. He had a mission that superseded and went beyond the normal rule set that normally are followed by ordinary people. One day we will understand this and will throw down our crowns and worship a greatness that is presently beyond our comprehension.
. . . because he does/follows the commandments the father gives him.

It's just that you are comparing apples and oranges. Some day you'll wake up and smell the coffee. Jesus has nothing to do with the idol you mention. Men trace their lineage back to that idol, so Jesus said: "Call no man father".
There is a world of difference between the *Our Father* of Jesus and the gOdfather of Hebrew lore. So its laws do not apply to the Son of God. To demonstrate that, the last thing Jesus did was to defy the law of gravity. That's like in Arab cultures to show the soles of your feet at someone. To leave the world in defiance of gravity is the same as to fly the birdie to the gOdfather of man.
That is why Christ transcends your gOdfather's laws. They simply don't apply. So, get over it already.

To be more exact, the universe contains those who are asleep, and those who are awakening. Those who are awake are not in the universe, because the universe is a dream in the mind of Christ.
Why is the universe a crucified/dead Christ?
The Kingdom of God is alive and life.
A dream of what is nOt the K of G is going to involve what is nOt of it.
Death is nOt of it, so that is involved in the dream.
The dream has also something it called "life" because the dream is a combination of attributes, as if to combine opposites.
The net effect of combining opposites results in all kinds of paradox and oxymoron.
So, for example, the son of man is "born to die".
The life of the son of man is not really life.
The death of the son of man is not really death.
You see the irony?
Further, the son of man is like a machine, as is the mind that makes it.
The son of man is like a robot running programs written since before time.
Time is finished, and yet, man keeps running like an energizer bunny.
His thoughts are not his own, rather, they are the machine's thoughts since before time, recorded, and playing out like scripts.
If you have ever had a 'deja vu' experience, you can understand how closely the son of man is matching the scripts written for him.
All of his steps are pre-scripted.
The pre-scription [ie. prophecy] since before time is the playing out of the crucifixion of the Son of God enparody. I'm not just talking about Jesus. In the universe, everything is attacking everything, and nothing lives but something dies. And everywhere in between are terror, pain, suffering, loss, lack, sickness and death. This is not a result of some crime of man. This is how the universe functions, how it is supposed to function, and it functions perfectly in this regard.
Science also tells us that it is a "closed system". Everything that can happen has already happened. Things like this. So there is an appearance of life, but really is kind of a "Stepford Wives" kind of existence.
So, existence in the universe/dream is like being in a tomb. This is symbolized by Jesus three days in the tomb to represent all of time.
Jesus said we would recieve the sign of Jonah. That is a reference to the universe like being in the belly of a whale. Jesus showed how to escape.l

Israel is, as defined by the bible: He said, "Your name shall no longer be Jacob, but Israel; for you have striven with God and with men and have prevailed." Genesis 32:28
To me, Israel consists of individuals from any and all nations and from any and all religions or not.
LIB, it doesn't matter what you think it consists of.

Disagree, Jesus comes and fulfills the law and shows man how to actually follow them.
Also, Jesus does defy mans laws and traditions, but not the laws of the father. He isn't sin free simply because he is the son of god and incapable of sin, he is sin free because he does/follows the commandments the father gives him.
