Well, I do think your post on humility and faith is very good and like I said I want to think about it as it is very interesting. Have no immediate response at all except that you seem to be overdue to throw in the towel and pray. Perhaps it could be true that when anyone reaches a level of question that their thoughts are going the way yours are going now, that that person is almost at the door. That's my feeling about people.
Very simple process He set up so the PhD and the slobbering idiot alike could have immediate access to the Kingdom of heaven. Think about it--if you had to rationalize and intellectualize your way to God, wouldn't that be the most unfair thing possible since l/2 or more humans never think, they are too busy keeping themselves alive? Definitely would be horribly unfair.
Simple prayer instead.
Jesus come into my heart. I believe you are the Son of God. [I can't believe in a Son of God, but if you ARE, Please, Please show me.] I give you permission to change my mind, and please forgive my sins as promised as the guilt is not fun. And I promise to try not to keep doing what I know to be wrong, and I assume you will help me do this.
Basically, that's all it ever has been, as this situation about fits every human who has ever lived. Everyone either prays it slightly differently, or just repeat after others, as I did, half smiling because I thought what we were doing was silly and I wasn't sure it was going to do anything. Hey, I was a confirmed Episcopalian for Pete's sake!
Anyway, yes, all of the things you mentioned are the lines of which I am quite familiar. Except now the payoff time is here, and I haven't a clue myself. I worry about G 2000 as I said.
Electronic scanning. They have satallite scanners that look worldwide for key words. It's along the anti-terror lines. The sattalites pick up dope smuggling talk and terrorist talk and throw the poor Michigan Militia in there too. I was once warned to be aware that I was probably on "file" due to the request for certain information, and certain 1-800 calls I had made for information. "You're kidding!" I yelled. Then I got the explanation of how the list thing went. Just questions and phrases they look for, if you believe that kind of thing, which I most certainly do. I said that if anyone was looking at me, they must be desperate for names.
The Templars remain the Crime of the Millenium. Not as what they supposedly did, but what was factually done against them in full daylight with all of the kings of the world cooperating with the Pope.
Trust me that they will receive a FULL PARDON WITH HEAVENLY HONORS at the Lord's return. There will be a lot of settlements coming, believe me. I sure the awards are already determined by the Father.
Now, on Machevelli. O.K. Here's what I do know about him. He was prepared and raised up from the inside, and knew of what he spoke. To a certain extent he was like the devil's Paul, writing an epistle to the madmen of the world to come who would help build the temple for the Anti-Christ to simple one day walk in and claim while the world roared its approval and revelled in the streets and basically returned to their pagan origins.
That time is here. Do you disagree? |
