I’m going to say that Jesus & The Holy Spirit are the only way. So, Getting this insult to your integrity out of the way, please listen as to why. We’d like to believe that we can figure it out for our selves,… and we’re independent. But, out very nature is interdependence to a society. A society with a government & an economy still trying to work out the kinks. But this dependency can only get us so far. We need a crutch beyond our meager will and limited perspective.
A definition of the Holy Spirit is; a feeling people get in the presence of God. While in group prayer or worship of God, people with an open mind are left feeling content ness and peace. This feeling is temporary, and needs constant recharge. Maybe this is why people consider religion a crutch. Yet this crutch inspires us to want change. I define the Holy Spirit as a power that renews the soul, into something similar of the purity of a new soul. Any progress away from the Holy Spirit is perversion. The devil cannot create; only pervert what God has already created. Thus some religious fanatics go against God.
People learn hot to interact in society in a selfish manor. This selfishness is from living life in first person perspective. Yet through brain scans they have found that prayer and meditation will open up the part of the brain associated with selflessness and (? space and time placement?).
God weighs on peoples hearts to help others, without knowing exactly why. Hence a dependency on God as a medium toward a socialistic standard. A standard beyond democratic socialism. In that God won’t give it to you, if you don’t need it because you need to work on other things first.
Why are you making “God”, “HolySpirit”, Love and Altruism all attach themselves to one another?.. and why did I also do this for so long?..
…No.
I’m tired of you all.
You keep on smiling and doing what “feels right”,
and your democracy keeps on voting in what is most popular and appealing, and these lies keep on feeling better then reality. What a drug you are.
…Civilizations detachment from reality will ultimately bring great catastrophy and error.
What was the earth like before Jesus “came”? and what about the countries that Jesus had never effected. Jesus had little effect on humanity. Humans were always capable of both virtue and evil.
A religion without Jesus and God is a religion without devine dirrection. They see truth, but this truth is baced on a limited perspective. Jesus reinvented perspective by giving us the most basic and highest priorety things to focus on. All answers are in the Bible in that we have to reflect on what we do with the Bible.
Jesus didn’t need total control of the world when He was around. Jesus just needed to make the way for future events.
He added all of his good to an old, false premise, just like everyone else did, and it’s only because of them that there is ever any good in Christianity at all.
It’s strange how you can have all the answers, because answers normally lead to the solution for the initial problem that caused the question.
I think that what you have is hope, not answers. You have feeling, but no miracle or salvation.
Jesus added spiritual cause and effect. Through metephores Jesus showed motive of the spirit and where it will take you.
He said that if you wanted another mans wife, that you have commited adultry in your heart,… for you would do it, if the circumstances were right. But, then of course you have to live through the physical circumstances of ruining the fantacy and runnig from your problems. If all you focus on is the reward of sex,… you’ll find the prioreties change, changing the game. Thus taking sex out of love will change how you percieve people. They then become an object for your pleasure. And further taking sex before marriage, you’ll see that people will lose site of the none physical things when chossing a spouce.
It comes down to the very nature of who we are as spirits primarily.
