A 'real' Christmas story.

[InLove]

As I said before, the logic of love is as viable as any philosophy known to man--actually, it is more for those who understand it.

Be careful about what you reject---it might just be exactly what you are looking for.

I know I said I was "out of here" but I guess I am not yet...

In Peace,
InLove

Love? Love trancends logic. It supercedes common sense. It places us in danger, when we'd be better off hidden. It is a dangerous weapon, for the good side.

Q

 

[InLove]

Hi, peace to all, and try as I might, I cannot escape this, now can I? Yes, love seems to defy all logic--yes it is dangerous, but only to those who fear it.

So all those people who said I was "dangerous" all those years were right? LOL--yes I was, but not in the way they thought.

The message of my Lord is truth that disturbs--it does transcend any philosophy that man can offer, no matter how talented.

It also comforts--why? Because it is the truth--

Now I realise we are not on the Christian board, and so, I think, as much as I am drawn to this conversation, I must now quit, because otherwise, I will break some rules (like I haven't already).

Really, guys--gotta go--

InPeace,
InLove

To me, the philosophy presented in the Word of God (and the proof of it to my own spirit) is the most truthful and sensible philosophy ever presented to this world--basically that Love conquers all. Why not from the very beginning, you ask? Well, I believe that we must see all sides of things before we can know the true nature of this Love--and yes, God's Creation suffers in order to grow. But in the philosophy of Love--that is, the sacrifice of Christ--God suffers more. How can I tell Love how to design me when Love is my Creator?

Mighty interesting thread this has grown to be. Hope to chime in more at some time to Z's interesting questions, but for now I must commend Q and InLove for some great answers and highlight this bit by InLove, which I think says it all.

peace all,

Christmas is Christ's mass. Regardless of what non Christians think, this is the grace we prayed for, and are reminded of every year. It is what makes us, us. I don't want be be anything else...

The idea of god becoming a man just for us on this planet is impossible, not just that but I don’t believe he can overwrite the program!

All I wish for is Christians to admit Jesus is not god and that the trinity is false. Hmm that’s quite a lot isn’t it!

Ok Z. you have a Christian right here, (ME) who does not believe God turned into a man. & everyone here knows i do not believe that way. you should also know there are tens of millions of Christians who do not believe in the trinity.

is that what you want to hear? does that make you happy now?

Considering 2/3 of the population does not believe Jesus is the Messiah, i dont see what your problem is, other than to defame him & make Jesus less than who he is.

you should also know, that when it comes down to the wire, i have to side with the ones who believe God turned into a man, because after reading what you say about Jesus, it is a real turn off & i would not trust much about what you have to say about Jesus.
this is typical of what happens when you make Jesus less than what the bible says Jesus is & I dont think you know who Jesus is & i dont think you really seem to care & would like to incorporate your own personal story (whatever that is).

somehow, i think your issues about Jesus & the scriptures go much deeper than what you are trying to say here on the surface.

i am just glad i was not around to read all this over the holidays.

Ok, I feel I am just digging a deeper hole for myself with every word I say, so I am going to stop! My purpose was not to be Christ’s adversary! I am very confused and just don’t know what to make of it all, wrong time of year to be like this I know – but I am a lot harsher on myself and my own philosophies. I hope you have all seen enough of the other side of me to forgive my trespass! I am aware that the world needs more love and peace and that taking the negative line doesn’t achieve anything – I just have these mad moments. Just remember what we druids have been through over the last 2000 years – not that I feel Christ would have wished this - and that much of the trouble in the world is due to people using Christ as a basis for their authority and to further their own power!

Ah dear what can I say, if I have let myself and you all down and you want me to leave then I will but I love you all regardless!



Inlove – perhaps we can find a more diplomatic way to explore the truth!





Hi inchristalways,

what is your short view of what happens after death so I can get an idea where you are coming from.

well in short I feel the soul has a kind of magnetism that pulls it towards its rightful place, like if someone is a Buddhist, then they will be reborn or go to nirvana, if Christian then to heaven. But I don’t believe in the devil or that beings born in ignorance [and innocence] should be punished, it is my nature to want to help even the most deeply fallen souls – the farther they have fallen then the more help they need! Thus I believe there is an underworld or as Buddhist say – intemediate realms, where the fallen may rise, but I would not want even satan himself to be cast aside in the pits of hell – it is more that he chooses not to rise! But that doesn’t mean I wouldn’t try to help.



It does concern me that there is a seemingly vast dualistic schism in the idea of heaven and hell, as all evils arise from duality! Perhaps both I and many others are seeing this in the wrong context and that the duality inherent in Christian teachings is only apparent – I don’t know to be honest!




Respect [believe it or not]
