Epstein, old fellow, You don't understand: there is a state in which one is given over to God to the point that all one's directions, attitudes, actions, are DONE by God and NOT by the egoic being. So the individual in question NEVER knows in advance what that will be, and does not try to know, because there is no point in doing so. It is in the immediacy of the moment. Frederick is telling you that that is where he is coming from. You can believe it or not--that's up to you. Anyway, you are the one asking the question. So it matters more to you than anyone else. So answer it yourself, directly, state your reasons and let it go. Namaste! Jim

Epstein..... >>So what does your God tell you to do ? Shoot ? Lend the other cheek ? We are talking of a crowd here. Of worshippers. Christians from all over the world, kids and saints marching up united in their faith. You sent them to death ? Let your VERB be heard, ONE!>> The true God of all creation who is the Father to us all doesn't tell-compell us to to do anything. He loves us so much that he doesn't assign or attach any conditions or stipulations on his love which supports everything. Freedom is the essence of his love. As our Lord already said the greatest love expressed is when one give one's live so that others may live. This is what our Lord did for mankind. He gave his live so that we may believe, enter into his kingdom here on earth so that we can freely and unconditionally receive and share life. And this Kingdom extends to heaven for the Lord re-established the direct conjunction between the spiritual heavens where the angels are mankind on this earth. The Lord would give his live and so shall others who follow him. For death does not exist. His life and love is "the way." And he gets all credit and glory. 119293!!
