Beautiful piece

Why am I creating this topic? I create this topic to enlighten the world and to also get enlightened from people's inputs.

I sometimes see some Muslims singing Christian songs, and I reason within me how more peaceful, united and harmonious the world can become if we all realized that the universal God is one and God doesn't have a religion. Religions are merely pathways to God, created by man, sometimes with the help and inspirations of the holy spirit. However the supreme pathway to God is to worship God in spirit, truth and uprightness.

Why was the old testament and new testament mixed together? There are actually two different religious text, the old testament belongs to the Judaism religion and the new testament was created by the followers of Jesus.
This was done in a bid to paint Jesus as the messiah of the Jews prophesied about, the Jews till this day reject Jesus as their messiah, pointing out that he didn't fulfill the messianic prophecies. Yet some people continue to force Jesus on the Jews.

In the old testament for example, the Jewish god pointed out that he was a jealous unforgiving god that visits the sins of the fathers upon the children. In the new testament Jesus pointed out that the universal God is love and ever forgiving.

For a God that never changes, this is contradictory, but of course Jesus wasn't talking about the Jewish God, he never mentioned Jehovah. Jehovah is not mentioned in the new testament, Jesus always or usually addressed God as Father or simply God.
God doesn't have a name, what is the use of a name? A name distinguishes or differentiates, for the universal God without equal, beginning or end, what is the use of a name?
We can of course address God with honorable titles, however God doesn't have a birth, native or specific name. He is what he is.

Jesus is not God, he repeatedly pointed this out in many bible verses but some people insist on twisting things.
In John 14:28 Jesus said the father is greater than I am.
In Mark 10:18 he said why do you call me good, nobody is good except God.
Jesus prays, who does he pray to if he is God.

Jesus said things like I and the father are one and if you see me, you have seen God, however he simply meant that the spirit of God dwells in him and he is a good representative of God. The spirit of God dwells in all of us, so same can also be said of every Godly upright human. That is why Jesus said everything you do to another human, you do to me and God.

You don't have to fight for God, this shouldn't bring malice. If you have a contrary opinion or something to say, just voice it politely. Nobody knows it all, we are all learners.

To be continued.

The Torah only point is to God...
And it rightly said, it is within us .

Consciousness......higher consciousness.
Not a Jewish man up in the sky.

I disagree, the Torah talks about how God creates Adam and Eve, intentionally puts them in a garden with a tree of knowledge. Comes back to find that they have eaten of the fruit and instead of trying to rectify things, he goes about cursing everybody and creating more suffering.
Except if this stories are not meant to be taking literally and have other meanings, if not, then my fellow, it is nonsense. Since it is a sacred text for some people, I wouldn't want to criticize it much. Let everybody count their teeth's with their tongue and believe what they want. Peace.

Do you know the meaning of "the letter killeth"?
They are all allegory....we are expected to read it and learn the messages they contain ..They are not historical.

Every culture have their own creation myth, no one is truer than another...All myth

What way did the Torah give people on attaining higher consciousness?

sonmvayina:
Follow my latest thread....

Come with me

I was telling someone today; just us The Mercedes Benz is a great car for driving doesn't mean it's the only means of moving from point A to B.
If you enter another car brand ,eg. Ford and apply the same principle of driving. It'll still take you from point A to B.
Religion is just a vehicle.
The real principle is your driving skill or holiness

MaxInDHouse:
Have you heard of Jesus of Nazareth?

advanceDNA:
U pple just juxtapose different context to suit wateva narrative is hungrying you....
