For Christians who may want to think "well..it's not written in the Bible"

It is interesting that there was no "divine ordinance" that even a bible of letters between people in Israel be created to rule the thinking and behaviors of men.

This reasoning above forms parts of my questions back in the day.

Secondly, we don't read the Bible to become Physicists, Doctors, etc. This means it is not a compendium of all realities or truth. There are many facta and truths out there not written in it.

Christianity Etc › Re: Who Is That "One Like The Son Of Man" In The Christian Bible by chieveboy(op): 10:08am On Mar 31, 2023

It is interesting that this very 'Manifested So. Of God' which was tagged "one like the son of man" also aided the famous Christopher Columbus in his journeys to the Americas to help with depleting resources of his people.

Okay,I wish you the best.

I hope you indeed find the Holy Spirit and not the wandering voice speaking to you.I'll leave you with the words of Solomon on Eccl 1:18

For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow

LoL bro, what's this quote about "sorrow" and "grief", it felt so negative in vibration

. The Holy spirit business takes you away from regions where using sorrow and pain for any reason whatsoever is not possible. There are better things with God...

By the way,one like the son of man is the Holy Spirit.

This is true. It is the Holy spirit. Man's purpose in life is to develop to become one with the Holy Spirit so much that they are not distinguishable. There are those who have attained this. Cheers.

So I found that this being is known as an 'Eck Master' in Eckankar.

In Eckankar, any one who develops in spirit to become one with the Holy Spirit is known as an 'Eck Master'. Think of it as. Professor of the Holy Spirit.

'Eck' here is simply defined as what the church calls "Holy Spirit". It is that all-oervading force which gives life and sustains all things. This is what the Supreme Deity uses to manifest ITself in all life.

There are several people from all walks of life that had attained that stage. There are Muslims like Rumi the Persian poet, Kabir, Shams and so on.

Some are Christians like Saint Germaine, Saint Francis of Assisi. They are all Eck Masters in their levels.

Christianity Etc › Re: Who Is That "One Like The Son Of Man" In The Christian Bible by chieveboy(op): 9:51am On Mar 31, 2023

Interestingly the church likes to preach that this person ('one like the son of man') was Jesus.

Of course you would expect this, everything must either be 'Jesusified' or it may not fit in the narrative of the Bible especially, and also the fundamental ideology of Jesus being the center of it all.

This is where one would earnestly beg to differ. Yes, Jesus is mighty, glorious, is the son of God, etc. But then, there are more grander things for us all. This is the realization of ourselves as pure spirit.

In other words, beholding yourself during a spiritual encounter as pure spirit instead of the boring bag of flesh that we believe we are. This is the true and everlasting Gospel.

Christianity Etc › Re: Who Is That "One Like The Son Of Man" In The Christian Bible by chieveboy(op): 9:48am On Mar 31, 2023

So when John chanted the holy words and was lifted to the heavens where the present, past and future exists as a single pot of soup, he saw events that are to occur.

Some of them was how beings from the skies in space crafts would come to revisit man again.

That being represents man in the higher scheme of things where man is yet undeveloped to participate. Some call it the 'Galactic Council'.

Interestingly, these space crafts and stuff where translated or written as "flying horses" "chariots of fire" etc

Christianity Etc › Re: Who Is That "One Like The Son Of Man" In The Christian Bible by chieveboy(op): 9:44am On Mar 31, 2023

So while John was chanting those spiritually charged words, he of course would be charged enough to visit other dimensions, heavens and planets in full consciousness while probably laying in his hut.

This act of course is a discussion-ender in mainstream religion. But it is funny that the people the bible are written around all do it, else they are ordinary people.

You joined Eckankar right?

Yes, I mentioned this earlier. 2011.

Christianity Etc › Re: Who Is That "One Like The Son Of Man" In The Christian Bible by chieveboy(op): 9:41am On Mar 31, 2023

I happen to find out that how the book of Revelation came about was when John was banished to the island of Patmos by the authorities.

It will blow Christians away to hear that John then resorted to singing of spiritually charged words being alone and dejected. The spiritual words of course will be branded "satanic" by people of today.

This is largely because their practices back in the is nothing in similitude compared with the choirs time, sermon time, offering time order of events as we have today that forms the order of Church service. We today stick to what we grew to learn from Sunday school.

Christianity Etc › Re: Who Is That "One Like The Son Of Man" In The Christian Bible by chieveboy(op): 9:37am On Mar 31, 2023

Before I go further, I later joined Eckankar after finding it here on Nairaland. This was around 2011.

Christianity Etc › Re: Who Is That "One Like The Son Of Man" In The Christian Bible by chieveboy(op): 9:35am On Mar 31, 2023

Now about this "one like the son of man" in the bible, I came to find that he is a very well-known being in Eckankar. They even know his name.

This being was responsible for giving John the revelations he recorded which was never a Christian or religious affair. It was purely spiritual.

So your personal relationship with the Holy Spirit to you to Eckankar?

Sorry I do not fully grasp your question

Christianity Etc › Re: Who Is That "One Like The Son Of Man" In The Christian Bible by chieveboy(op): 9:33am On Mar 31, 2023

After staying at home for about 1yr plus, thoughts like "this Holy Spirit, didn't they say it is everywhere? Does it mean it is here where I sit?"

I also began to question some beliefs and practices which I won't mention here due to the potentiality of causing a destabilization.

I tried practicing some psychic arts like being in two places at the same time and some others. I had taken my searches online. I found that the so-called "gifts of the spirit" are nothing more than abilities people develop when they expand their concepts of what is real or not.

It is tied to the saying by a a very wise man that "your state of consciousness is your level of acceptance", a very powerful statement this one

At the time, my heart and inner experiences (visions, deja Vus, Traveling in the dream, prophecy, etc) where steering me to the a solitary spiritual life, where I am neither a boring religious person nor a spiritually handicap person.

My fears of eternal damnation and shame which may arise from leaving the outer fellowship of "brethren" held me back. I would not dare.

After holding on in futility, that Joyce Meyer message sort of dealt the last blow to the thinning cord holding me back. I ceased church and prayed at home.

I spoke in tongues from the wells of my belly. I grew in inner strength for the 'next phase'.

Before joining, an inner voice that had been with me from childhood directed me to Christ Embassy church and said "Use this pot to cook turkey"...the message of course was not about turkey meat which I loved ...

Caveat*

We are all unique, this means you don't just cease church because of a beef with a pastor or because someone left church snd felt better off. I mean do not take my word here for instruction to leave your church or religion please.

The golden rule had been: "follow your heart, it will never lead you astray"!

Christianity Etc › Who Is That "One Like The Son Of Man" In The Christian Bible by chieveboy(op): 9:14am On Mar 31, 2023

At one time before becoming an Eckist, I had listened to a particular message by Joyce Meyer and stopped going to church from that day onward.

Don't mistake her message for a negative one. Infact, the message (which I can't recall the name) was like the springboard I was looking for to venture into searching for God in the real sense of it. By that, I mean making this "God" thing a personal reality rather than mere faith and blind belief.

Joyce Meyer in that message spoke around the subject of outward exhibition of ones faith and it remaining there. She encouraged one to develop a personal relationship with the Holy Spirit.

Christianity Etc › Re: Is God A Trinity? by chieveboy(m): 9:48am On Mar 19, 2023

Eckankar teaches that God is not describable, and no one is ever right or wrong about IT.

This is because GOD is nothing and is everything at the same time. Any attempt to fit it into any mold is a futile effort.

All man deals with is majorly GOD's attributes, the story of the ten blind men and the elephant explains our romance of what we think GOD is.

FxMasterz:
All false religions have their origin in ancient Babylon. All forms of myticism, occultism, idol worship and fake religions have their roots from Babylon. That's why false religions have similarities. Mysticisns also have similar practices because they share the same origin. Each of them just have different brandings but worship the same gods in different names. All of them are under Satan whose ancient desire is to be worshipped.

If God has opened your eyes to know Jesus, just count yourself fortunate. It isn't easy to deliver Satan's captives from his captivity. It's purely the work of the Holy Spirit.

CC: Courz

Much as I agree with you they original Nate from Babylon, they however by no means "false" in the sense of the word.

They are genuine as we have English words emanating from Latin.

Further, no God worshipped today either in Idol format or otherwise is false. They originate from existing entities who have romanced the earth at one time which man believed where Gods or angels.

All religions today worship one of these characters from outer Space.

3: The ultimate dissolvent of the Negatives is the Life Force itself. This is experienced as pure light in the inner vision.

It had gone by many names which don't matter. One is to find a conscious way of making conscious contact with it. It is what can turn someone red as scarlet and make them white as snow.

Chanting Holy words or names of God are one of many ways to contact it.

It requires or seek no religious belief in it. Infact, most religious beliefs and rituals are a turn-off sort of for it.

It only needs sincerely and purity of purpose to contact it.
