Good Saturday to all and may GOD bless you and keep you now and always!

Well, number of things to discuss today, the Lord has filled my plate a bit.  So this will be a longer one. Some I may have touched upon before, and this will happen from time to time, so forgive my redundancy at the time.

Let me pose a question!  What if GOD said to the devil, ok I want you to control Earth for the purpose of testing all my souls, weeding out the weak, the chafe.  Like natural selection works in nature, survival of the fittest.  Is GOD and Heaven not mirrored on Earth and in all His creation?
GOD who is all knowing, clearly for saw that the devil and his group would leave Heaven.  What if that was the plan all along?  And it continues to this day, the weeding out the natural selection of souls.  The harvesting of His crop.  Possible, impossible?  One cannot deny the possibility and still say one believes in GOD.  For all things are possible thru, with, of, from GOD, therefore if we believe in Him truly then this too is even possible.  I am not saying yay or nay, just posing the question for the purpose of opening one's mind to all possibilities, for once the mind is open, then learning can begin.

What if GOD, desiring to show His wrath and to make known His power, has endured with much patience the vessels of wrath made for destruction (i.e. devil etc.), in order to make known the riches of His glory for the vessels of mercy(i.e us), which He has prepared beforehand for glory, even us whom he has called, not from the Jews only but also from the gentiles?....Romans 9:22-24

Next topic!  Speaking of those who presume to know GOD and speak for Him, and this pertains to me as well, as I am not perfect.  Those who are close-minded in their perspective and try to force others to view things the same way; who doubt the truth or are falling away.  Paul addresses this in Romans as well:
Brethren, it is my hearts desire and prayer to GOD for them is that they may be saved.  I bear them witness that they have a zeal for GOD, but it is not enlightened.  For, being ignorant of the righteousness that comes from GOD, and seeking to ESTABLISH THEIR OWN, they did not submit
to GOD's righteousness.  For Christ is the end of the law, that every one who has faith may be justified.....Romans 10:1-4
Now I have spoken of both these passages before, but dealing, pertaining to diff topic.  This is an example of how there are many meanings in the Bible passages.  I have addressed this as well before.  The Bible and all religious books are multi-layered in meaning.  It is like sitting in a boat and looking at the water surface, seeing the many sparkles of Light.  Then just below the surface one can see more things, and deeper one goes more there is to perceive!  It is up to you to decide what you want to see. 
Also, this passage addresses here today, that we all perceive differently.  No two people ever in existence, perceived GOD the same exact way.  We are all different. So we are wrong to ESTABLISH OUR OWN  PERCEPTION, CHURCH as THE one way!  Our own true church inside us is OUR true way. Build it with His help!  To borrow a movie line appropo here,  "if you build it HE will come!  He will enter into your church and dwell in His temple in each and every one of us. 

Now this flows into the next topic.  What does Paul do in that last passage?  He does not say Jesus, nor Jesus Christ, but Christ.  For Christ is the end of the law, that everyone who has faith may be saved.  This one line is IMMENSELY important.  Jesus was a man, like any man, born of a human mother, very special one, but human nonetheless.   Jesus Christ or Jesus the Christ was that man infused with the Christ essence, spirit.  This Christ has existed since the beginning.  He has been here many times.  Which specific times, I am not privy too as yet, but I have an awareness, which usually gets confirmed later.  So for sake of argument I lean towards it, does not mean you have to.
Was this essence in Buddha, Mohammed, Confucius, Brahma, Adam, etc? Or was He here as another and taught these men?  We know that Jesus, known as Issel(spelling may be wrong), is known to the near east peoples long ago. Again all things are possible. 
Let me put it this way! Put yourself in GOD's mind a bit, a perfect mind. Say you wanted to teach all your children the Way home, all about Him.  But your children had grown, multiplied, spread throughout the world, with different cultures, perspectives, and languages.  Now would you think it best to send one messenger, one Christ man to teach about yourself to all the peoples, of diff races, languages etc?  Or would it be better, more efficient, productive, to send the Christ essence to each peoples, in a different man? One who looked like them, talked like them, understood them, was one of them?   Food for thought in this all things are possible with GOD world.

As Paul said, everyone who has faith may be justified!  We have killed, hated, mutilated etc each other for having different perspectives of GOD.  He is still GOD, no matter how you see Him. 
It is not important how you believe, or what you believe, but that you believe!!!

For man believes with his heart and so is justified, and he confesses with his lips and is so saved.  The scripture says, "no one who believes will be put to shame.  For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; the same Lord is Lord of all and bestows his riches upon all who call upon Him.  For, "everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved."    ....Romans 10:10-13

Before Abraham was, I AM .....John 8:58
Christ has always been here.  He is that spark within each of us.  The spark at conception.
That was the true Light which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.....John 1:9
We were all there in the beginning, as part of GOD and can return to Him if we want. 
We will shed these skin coats we have now. 
For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.  For now we see through a glass darkly; but then face to face.  Now I know in part, but then shall I know even as also I AM known.....1 Corinthians 13:9-10,12
I AM come that you may have life and that you might have it more abundantly. I am the good shepherd.  The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep....John 10:10-11

Learning about GOD is usually not done so in a big step.  Can it be so?  Of course, as again all things are possible.  Usually tho it is in small steps, taught us in perfect pace for us.  The important thing, and this is free will choice, is to take the steps.  That is why we are here!
Free will, that amazing gift, but double-edged sword!  One edge perfect, smooth, sharp.  One edge jagged, pitted, rusty.  Which do you choose?  Too many choose the rusty one and end up roaming thru life empty, lost, full of holes, an empty well.  They seek things of this world to fill the holes, the well.  Drugs, booze, addictions, possessions, wealth, power, sex, etc.  It is like eating sugar vs protein.  One flames up and is gone, one builds the body.  Your choice!  The things of this world will NEVER fill the holes or the well and you will ALWAYS be thirsty.

For I AM the water of life, He who drinks of ME will never go thirsty.


GOD Bless!
