James.... >>>>With all of this evidence flowing out of the woodwork confirming his perfect order and providence, why should the Lord God Jesus Christ "be replaced?" Isn't this just a simple example of how we are freely receiving and sharing more and more and more of His perfect, divine, benevolent order and providence?>>>> >>Sorry to say "NO", but because I am among the "mathematically impaired" of this world, I find your "prime number" posts illustrations more of what you yourself are PERSONALLY interested in, rather than anything else. From our many posts backwards and forwards, Frederick, I read you as a devotee of Jesus, filtered through Swedenborg, and with a dash of Dean Fagerstrom thrown in for good measure. Is this correct? I would invite you (and anybody else on the thread) to lay out: -- what their spiritual/religious path is about -- what is the nature of the spiritual/religous practice followed?>> "A devotee of Jesus filtered through Swedenborg with a dash of Dean thrown in for good measure....!" You must be a great chef!! I'm not quite up on the definition of "devotee" but the only way I can interpret this to my position would be to assume it's the position of the servant to his/her God. >>what their spiritual/religious path is about?>> The spiritual-religious path of the Lord God Jesus Christ is the connectedness of all things with His perfect Divine order and Providence which proceeds from the ONE End/Source - ie. the Lord God Jesus Christ - through an infinite number of spiritual causes in the heavens and hells before manifesting as natural-temporal effects in our world in the eternal present-now. The path is one of perfect unity in the infinite expression of His perfect energy, light and love which, just like the His Divine system of prime and non-prime numbers, emanates from and returns back to ONE (1). Emanuel Swedenborg and Dean Fagerstrom are simply servant messengers who were called to freely receive and share what the Lord and His angels presented as gifts of thought, ideas, energies and insight about the Lord God Jesus Christ's Divine love, truth, order and Providence. >>what is the nature of the spiritual/religous practice followed?>> The simplest way of describing the nature of this spiritual/religious practice is ONE (1) word: RISK. The manifestation of risk is love which is use as in "being useful" to others and the universe in general. That is, we are all called to risk discovering the divine truth about our spiritual heritage through words, deeds and acts that manifest use - ie. the process of sharing, risking, being and living while helping, serving and loving others freely and unconditionally. In a nutshell, we are to be free/open conduits for the universal energy, light and love to shine, flow and GO!! Because of the glory of the Lord's energy, light and love which we freely receive every day, we are all called to share the glory of this in His name. In this way we all can become beacons of hope and faith for mankind - ie. Lighthouses!! And when our spiritual lighthouses freely lite up and shine we are happy!! And with the activation of each individual lighthouse we manifest more and more and more of what becomes a truly happy, caring, forgiving and loving world. Peace and God Bless!! 119293!!

I share your innumeracy when it comes to Frederick's postings, but at a certain level I see little difference between Frederick's ONE (1) perceptions and your posting of the "ONLY COMPLETE WAY". I am happy whenever anyone tells me they have found a path to God, love, happiness, etc. But when someone says they have the path, or the truth I instinctively find myself in Solon's camp. Here is what CWG observes on the subject: A true master is not the one with the most students, but the one who creates the most masters. A true leader is not the one with the most followers, but the one who creates the most leaders. A true king is not the one with the most subjects, but the one who leads the most to royalty. A true teacher is not the one with the most knowledge, but the one who causes the most others to have knowledge. And a true God is not the one with the most servants, but One who serves the most, thereby making Gods of all others. For this is both the goal and the glory of God; that His subjects shall be no more, and that all shall know God not as the unattainable, but as the unavoidable.
