O I often sit and ponder,

when the sun is sinking low

where does yonder future finds me,

doth but God in heaven knows.

shall I be among the living?

shall I mingle with the free?

But wherever my path be leading,

Saviour keep my heart with thee.

young man the needle eye is not the eye of the normal needle you sew with. its a gate in Jerusalem that is too low that a camel needs to stoop so low to pass through. its all about humility.
as for being rich, u can as well tell me how poor Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, Solomon etc were, and if u ever saw them in hell wen u paid a visit there

At bolded, so Jesus too can be wrong? How you easily contradict Jesus to support your pastors... it beats me.

I, Judas of Kariot loved my Rabbi Nicodemus, who was teaching
me to walk along the Paths of the Lord.I used to serve him as any dignified disciple of Israel must serve
his Rabbi, and I was waiting for my hour to serve the ETERNAL ONE and in my heart was burning the love for the Truth.
However, that morning my eyes made me see that my Rabbi
Nicodemus wasn’t my Rabbi Nicodemus. In his face I saw anguish,
and in this way I could feel how his heart was hurt, but, I did not
know whether his wound had been caused by evil or by the good he
longed for, since my Rabbi was following the Path of the wise of
Naim, according to the tradition of Hillel.

That morning, he discharged all his disciples except me. When he did that, my heart became anxious, and it seemed to
me that the omen was dark because I could not seem to understand
what was happening. It was frequent at that time to see faces distorted by anger and
worry amongst the Pharisees.

And Jerusalem was a cradle of confusion. Pontius Pilate, the Roman Procurator, wanted the treasures of the temple for himself; he wanted to build an aqueduct, which
would make him be remembered in other times. And in the streets
people got excited amidst the noisy prattle in which the hatred
towards Rome was noticed.
And a humble man who came from the far lands of Galilee had
lit in their chests a new hope, talking to them about freedom.

I would like to speak to you about Judas, the man of Kariot, the one you have cursed many times, but who was a beloved brother of
that Son of Man whose name was Jesus. My story and my account begins with an impulse that spoke in
my heart, modulating words so clear and precise, just as the ones
you modulate in the ear of the beings you love.

I know well that all I’m going to say to you from now on, in this determination for justice, is in open contradiction to everything you
believed to be true of what happened in very remote times to a Son
of Man, Jesus of Nazareth, handiwork of a great lineage, that existed in another continent and who also walked amongst men of clay looking for those who wanted to make themselves of the sacred lineage.

So... how can a person discover what his unique destiny is?

This is same as asking how to make love... But this is what you have to do. You have to be unclad, most times completely unclad. Only then can LIGHT possess you. LIGHT will be your garment. With it you will penetrate your nights of ignorance. And before you will stand your unique destiny unclad.

So you just want to patronize us right? trying to find a middle ground for both parties to settle at? Well that doesn't cut it for me, because it's not like I'm unsure about whom I know God to be as to want a new definition from you regarding Him.

The God that I as a Christian believe in is:
1. A spirit with an eternal existence, no beginning, no end.
2. At some point he spoke words which caused creation to happen. At His word, the supernatural brought every physical thing into existence, the details of some I don't know, whether a bang was involved I don't know, but what I am sure of is if there was a bang, it happened at his command.
3. He created man in His own image. He formed him purely from dust and gave him the breath of life. He also made him superior to every other creation that's ever been or that'll ever be, which is still evident today.
4. He has a son Jesus, who came to bring redemption to man after his fall. And those that argue that God doesn't have a wife, and so he can't have a son. Here is what you should know: That humans need their wives to bear kids doesn't imply that every being needs a wife to have a child.

If musk had christened his Tesla model X a son of Model S, would you say he was wrong because model S was never in the delivery room?
God created some beings and named them angels. He created Jesus as his own begotten son.

5. He will bring this current world to an end some day. There'll be a judgement for everyman the kind if which determines who gets to live in eternal bliss, and who gets an eternal agony.

A typical "Christian". You are rolling in clay, you are getting yourself heavy unnecessarily. You are too focused on Earth (Outer) that you forget the Sky (Inner), you have even forgotten that you have wings to escape your ignorance. You started well by saying, God is an Eternal Spirit, with no beginning and no end. You said his WORD made all things but you couldn't hint on the nature of this WORD. Is the WORD separate from GOD? John tells us that the WORD is GOD itself. It is written somewhere in your Bible, GOD is the ALL IN ALL, in him we have our BEING. Why reduce God to a disadvantaged man? That makes him ugly. Atheism is the wilderness most seekers will have to cross to meet Truth, while religions like the one you subscribe to at the moment is the egypt-slavery you must fight (within you) to escape. And when the Red Sea divides and you cross, you may find yourself where Seun is. But don't remain there.

ONCE UPON A TIME, two explorers came to a clearing in the jungle. It was a beautiful place -- thousands and thousands of flowers were blossoming. One of the explorers said, "There must be a gardener tending these flowers, looking after this plot." He was a believer.
The other disagreed and said, "I don't see any gardener here. I don't even see anybody's footprints. And there seems to be no point in making such a beautiful garden in such a dense and deep forest. Who will come to look? Who will enjoy these flowers? Nobody ever passes by. No, there is no gardener. The whole garden is just an accident."

They argued. The second was a nonbeliever, a skeptic. But there was no way to decide who was right, so they pitched their tent and waited for seven days. No gardener ever appeared. The skeptic was very happy. He said, "Look, there is no gardener. It has been proven now." But the believer said, "The gardener is invisible. He comes, but we cannot see him; he comes, but we cannot hear his footsteps. This garden is impossible without a gardener." So they set a barbed wire fence up around the garden. They electrified the wires, they brought bloodhounds, and they patrolled day and night. But nobody ever entered. No shriek was ever heard from the shock of the electricity flowing in the wires. The bloodhounds never gave a cry.

After seven days, the skeptic said. "Finished! Now it is proven beyond doubt that there is no gardener -- visible or invisible." But the believer was not convinced. He said, "The gardener is not only invisible, he is intangible. He has no scent. He is eternally elusive: you cannot catch him by electrified wires, you cannot catch him by bloodhounds, and our eyes cannot see him. But he is -- for certain he is." Now the skeptical friend, in great despair, said, "What happened to your original statement? What is the difference between an invisible, intangible, eternally elusive God, or gardener, and one which is just imaginary, or one which does not exist at all? What is the difference between the two?"

Believers go on talking about an invisible God, skeptical minds go on disproving any possibility of it, and they both seem to be right. Or, they both are wrong. The argument never comes to a conclusion. From the very beginning, the whole line of inquiry has taken the wrong route. Once you separate the gardener from the garden -- God from the creation -- the problem arises. Then it can never be settled. The garden is enough proof of the gardener. But the gardener is not separate. He does not come to tend the garden: He is in the garden; He IS the garden. He does not look after the flowers: He is IN the flowers; He IS the flowers. Not that HE is invisible -- He is visible, but visible as flowers. If you have an idea of God, you will never find Him. The very idea will become the barrier. Only those who have no idea of God come upon Him, or allow God to come upon themselves. If you have a certain idea, the very idea is going to be the wall, the brick wall, between you and the truth.

The believer was not wrong, but he took a wrong line of argument: he divided the gardener from the garden. The gardener cannot be proved because the gardener doesn't exist. A gardener separate from the garden is nonexistential. That's why the skeptical friend could argue. And his argument is valid -- valid not against God or the gardener; valid against the believer. The believer has taken the wrong argument.

To me, God is herenow. All that you see is God. God is not something beyond; God is something within. Or, if you like paradoxes, you can call God the within beyond or the beyond within. But God is intrinsic, God is the innermost core of existence. Unless you start in the right direction, you will go on missing. Never believe in a God who is separate from His creatures and the creation. He is not, He cannot be. He is one with it: He is in it, He is it. Once this is understood, you start flowing; your whole life becomes a prayer.

That is the basic message of Jesus. That's why he goes on saying that "God is my father." It is a way of saying what I am saying to you. Between the father and the son, or between the mother and the child, there is a continuity. The father goes on living in the son; the mother continues in the child. The son is nothing but an extension of the existence of the father -- an extended hand: as if the old body has become incapable of existing and is going to disappear, and the father has created a new body to live within. When Jesus says, "God is my father," he simply means that "I am continuous with Him; there has never been a separation. He is flowing in me: in my every cell He is flowing. Nowhere has there been a discontinuity." That is the whole meaning of it, but he uses the word 'father' because he is talking to very simple, unsophisticated people. He is talking to real people, not to plastic people; he is not talking in a university. He is talking to real people -- people who are alive. He uses the word 'father'. And it is beautiful in a way, because unless religion becomes personal, it remains a philosophy. When religion becomes personal, it becomes life. Religion is something to be lived, not something to brood about. It is something that should become a milieu around you; it is something that should become a continuous breathing, continuous beating of the heart. Religion is a way of life, a way of being. It has nothing to do with thinking. When Jesus says, "God is father," he means this existence is not alien, this existence is a home. You can rest in it, you can rely on it; you need not be afraid.

This is one of the most significant things to be understood, because modern man is so much afraid. Never before has that been so. Never before in the history of humankind has man been as afraid as he is now.

The world is a unity. Existence is a family; we exist together. Life is togetherness, and that togetherness is God. If you cannot feel that togetherness, you will feel alien and you will always be afraid. To a truly religious man(not the Christian, Muslim etc), fearlessness happens spontaneously. To a nonreligious man, fear is the only way to be. 'God, the father' can be translated. It means: existence is one; it is a togetherness. It is a harmony, not a conflict. We are members of each other. Whenever somebody dies, something in me also dies. Whenever a new child is born, something is born into me also. Whenever a new child is there, life becomes more alive through him -- life smiles. Whenever somebody dies, there are tears. It has to be so, because I come out of life; I go back into life. Life was trying to do something through me. Everybody is a messenger; everybody is a messiah; everybody has a destiny to fulfill. And until you fulfill that destiny, you will never feel fulfilled. You can have much money, but fulfillment will not come through it. You can have much sex; fulfillment will not come through it. You can have much power; fulfillment will not come through it.

Fulfillment comes only when you have fulfilled a certain destiny that you were carrying, that was coded within you, that was deep in your blueprint. Unless you have become that for which you were made -- unless you have attained to being -- you will never be fulfilled. Fulfillment is peace, fulfillment is bliss, fulfillment is contentment. And only a fulfilled heart can pray, because only a fulfilled heart can be grateful and can feel the grace descending: the spirit of God, like a dove.

It's not built for Nigerians alone, but will be international non-profit with arrangements with Airlines and Tour Buses to bring people from different locations.

There is also no way we can really reach out for more people worldwide if we do not run a web platform, so the Media & Communication Strategists will work out the best platform and approach for everyone.

Coming over to the location will always be for those who really want to meet with people of like-minds; We will not just sit there reading about God and Universe and looking like born-again Christians and Deeper Life members.

We are not going to Assemble and Study and go home and then the people will go back into this nonsense rat-race, we will have Incubation Laboratory for Renewable Energy, Futuristic Technologies, Design Modules for Different machineries, Integration of cleanest technologies.

be right back, my home needs me now.

Great idea... wao!!!!

May the blessings be. Even as the Universe brings your way all that is needed to fully materialize this. I will not only be alive to witness it's fruition, I shall also actively partake in it. May it be!

It is well

Christ Consciousness is what Science calls Cosmic Consiousness. That was the Spiritual Order of Jesus aka Yahushua Ha Masiach aka Issa Ibn Mariam when he walked on this Earth, an impeccable Spirit who chose to come here to this 3D and made himself mocked. He is higher now, cos in his order I now walk. I had to meet Jesus, I had to be Awakened to Christ Consciousness. My 3D pyramid has been squared, now I live in Heaven on Earth. Life is beautiful. I am the resurrection and Life, means you have to die to resurrect into Christ Consciousness.

It is always nice reading you Billyonaire. Those who "know" know that "death" is an essential prerequisite to enlightenment. However, just as we know numbers not to have an end, i.e infinite, so also are the levels unto the DIVINE. So Sir, I guess we may both agree that YOU HAVE NOT SEEN IT ALL, only that you have been "made" to experience the highest possible bliss for a Spirit in a mortal frame.

You may perhaps find this to b true, that every new level presupposes an absolute surrender of the former, which in mystic wording is called the mystic death. This is a unique kind of death, for it is a living death (not physical); a death every true seeker shall earnestly yearn for. Holy Lord Yehushua (aka, Jesus Christ) according to the Christian Bible made a profound distinction between this living death and the dead death. Matthew 8:22 But Jesus said unto him, FOLLOW ME; and let the dead bury their dead and also, Matthew 16:24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. It is now clear that the death that precedes resurrection (New Spiritual level) is the living death, whilst the death of the dead is in the bizarre illusion of death among the "many".

Congrats!!!

Sarassin:
There are four elements plus the greater spirit element that permeates all four and from which they all arise from. A practitioner works with these elements to balance his own nature. When he casts a spell, he ritually involves the appropriate element or elements. When he consecrates any object, he places it on the pentacle, touches it with water, and passes over the censer (for air) and the candle (for fire).

But we also develop techniques for entering directly into the ‘worlds’ of these elements, to experience each in its undiluted form and to become aware of the entities that inhabit it - indeed, to communicate with them. In a sense this is a form of astral projection, one remains fully conscious all the time, but out of the physical body.

I would like to take a brief and concise look at each of the elements, the methodology of "entering" into their 'worlds' and uses. I have received a number of inquiries relating to issues dealing with Marine spirits therefore accordingly I will start with the Undines

Those who know the great value of your posts won't rate u less than a Master. Here you freely serve life's elixir from the deep well of wisdom. Sir, I suspect that in your ascent up the mystic "ladder", you have read works of Franz B. (especially IIH).

Scientific Explanation of the prophesied apocalypse, and those to escape the impending cataclysm.

This exposition is not intended to scare anyone, but to prepare us, so that we can like Noah, see the flood from the ark.
Earth travels over 900 Millions kilometres yearly around d sun @ a speed of over 100,000 Km/hr. It is also rotating around d centre of the galaxy, which is also traveling endlessly through space and pulling the earth along with it. Nothing ever stands still, including our apparently immobile Earth. Hence, there is motion everywhere, and everywhere you turn, there are POWERS in operation.

For those who choose to navigate along with the Universal harmony through the narrow inner path of wisdom using the bright lights of deeply sought knowledge soon find along this endless Path that everything is ENERGY. This is true whether or not motion is sensed.

The Earth's energy consequent upon seemingly unobservable inner vibrational influence result in constrained motion about an imaginary North-South pole identified by Science as rotational. The "rigid" mountains and hills, the ocean's water in its undulating "sprawl", the Sandy deserts and the green-rich forests etc. Although they all hang on nothing, yet, forge a formidable alliance of intelligent vibrational harmonic. The vector sum of such mind-boggling vibration result in what Science term as Earth's ROTATION, and this is responsible for the varied time in our Earth. Our "Space shuttle", Earth, however CONSCIOUS of the need for sustainance maintains an orbital balance with the "life giving" Sun, and the resultant attraction ENERGY is termed REVOLUTION. Let me make it clear at this point that VIBRATION = ENERGY and HIGHEST/PUREST ENERGY = UNCONDITIONAL LOVE!

The UNCONDITIONAL LOVE is GOD that has kept all in balance. Everything and everyone is on an ever forward journey towards Spiritual perfection, however each and everyone is to manage how they advance - "free-will". Man over millennia had carelessly sold himself farther and farther away from the majesty, glory and grandeur of Purest Heaven's LIGHT (light is a form of energy), and like the "prodigal son" most are lost in the delusion of their aggrandizement and self-love - their human slavery. They have now attained an extreme state of localized love (lowest vibration).They have moved out of the blissful congruous correspondence with the macrocosm - the Universe. Such man now sees himself as just one life, totally separated from another life, he sins against the Holy Spirit by not letting LOVE flow freely unto all, he sees himself as "individual" totally separated from what the common destiny is weaving. The Love men imprison shall fight them, and for this reason many are kept bound in a vortex of suffering. He is wretched, whether rich or poor!

Many now engage in perpetual fight against the Earth's yearnings for its own advancement, they vibrate low energy of selfishness and the earth is now saying ENOUGH! The Earth is being hurt by man's selfishness leaning. Earth show Love, and we disparage at will. Earth will soon spin faster and become less physical. For the low energy people will have to face the flood of eternal regret, the mountain they will desire to see again, they will even wish it falls on them.

Love manifested through Albert Einstein with the formula E = mc², where E=Energy, m=mass, c=speed or vibration. With this, ENERGY can be transmuted into matter and vice-versa, not forgetting that matter is that which has mass and can occupy space. From the above relation, we can deduce that at a constant mass, Energy is directly proportional to square of vibrational speed. Einstein took this speed to be the SPEED OF LIGHT. This reminds me of the Sacred words of Holy Lord Jesus, "I am the LIGHT of the world, he who follow me will not walk in darkness (his delusion), but shall have the LIGHT OF LIFE". Therefore, if we vibrate Love up to considerable perfection, which is Light, we will have on our being the "wedding" garment of regeneration, and with it enter the invisible Noah's ark, and from this ark, see the FLOOD and form a new civilization. Amen!

Life's game is not that easy to decipher, however, for now I settle with the belief that life is birthed in death, illusions throw up reality, darkness reveals light and the subtle is hidden in gross.

And that nothing else explains the paradox of life better than experience.

People always fail to realize that as at the time of the conquest of Canaan, that Era was brutal. However, Isaiah.2:4, presents a Biblical prophecy addressing how believers of this age ought to act
"... the nations, and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more"

What then do you make of Our Lord Jesus' prophecy, that nation will rise against nation, and Kingdom against Kingdom, ye shall hear of wars and rumours of war?

Or should we just accept that Isaiah's prophecy supersedes Christ's?

This is a very serious indictment on all of us...

Behavioral Statistics of Nigerians :

Group 1: 0.9% represent excessively greedy and mindlessly manipulative elite (politicians and religious "leaders"
Group 2: 99% represent an incredible herd of mumus, these are mentally lazy and often fight themselves in defence of the above behavioral proclivities of the first group.
Group 3: 0.1% represent the indifferent.

You can help a beggar but give your tithes to the church because there are people and also things God want to use them for that is why he referred you to the church.

Hey Shaarap! Go and find out what that means, "whatsoever you do to the least of my brothers, you do unto me."

Sadly, christianity (especially in Nigeria)now suffers a queer hijack by its mostly ignorant adherents. It is now for most "christians" a means to a materialistic end.

Whereas Holy Lord Jesus taught that "one can't serve God and mammon", but for naija, what is being promoted is that one can serve mammon by "God's grace".

Adrian Cooper's work, the ultimate reality is one book I won't forget in a hurry. I consider his work a priceless gift from the Divine to humanity.

ALL that is, is GOD. The infinite multiverse is GOD'S manifestation. The "devil" and "God" are aspects of ONE primordial Life or Energy. This singular Energy is in all, and the all in it. This is what the Bible so profoundly describe as, "Light that shines in Darkness".

However, the expression of this duality shall sooner or latter be known to you and the "all of the ALL" for what it truly is - ILLUSION
