I don't know what to say except my religious views are in transitional as always. PANTHEISTIC CHRISTIAN UNIVERSALIST LIBERAL QUAKER BUDDHIST PAGAN seems to have a lot of contradictions but to ME all involve finding the LIGHT within all of us.These are all beautiful paths towards realization of who we REALLY ARE.Don't get me wrong,please because I haven't mentioned the Sufis,the Jains the Siks etc.As long as a being is trying to live the principals for living as instructed by Jesus,Buddha and many others and is a better person for it is K3Y  :Peace2:

Blackstar, that's some theological milkshake you're drinking!  I admire some things about Buddhism myself, just not the religious part.  I also read the Tao te Ching with joy, but I don't see it as a religious book.  Yup, you are welcome here!  :gimmefive: :friendstu: :gimmefive:
Socrates taught Plato.  Plato taught Aristotle.  Aristotle tutored the son of Philip of Macedon.  This boy grew up to become Alexander the Great, largely by slaughtering a lot of people.  That's philosophy.

Jesus spoke the Truth.  He blessed the poor.  He healed the sick.  He even raised the dead.  He died on a cross for us, lived again, and came back long enough to tell us to love one another.  That's religion.

YHVH = Behold the Nail, Behold the Hand = Jesus

Every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father, including the Budha, and Confucious and Mohammed. There are some beautiful sayings in every religion, but the Lord Jesus is the unique "word"(expressed thought, exact icon, perfect image) of the Creator, the I Am, YHWH the one true Almighty and Invisible God.

I rejoice that all will be reconciled to God because of the blood of Jesus Christ, shed on a cross for all the sins of the world- only He can gather all things into one and present them to the Father, that God may be ALL IN ALL. It is really GOOD NEWS of God's GOOD WILL TOWARDS MEN.

Jesus the Messiah, through whom God created all things, appointed from the beginning to redeem all things by the shedding of his blood and restore all things through the power of his resurrection, and all by the power of his love and his willingness to become the servant of all.

These other ways are no more misleading than modern western Christianity, but nevertheless, it is only at the feet of Jesus that mankind will find the Way.

Thank you ALL for the warm welcome :banana: lol@ these emoticons. I did experience THE LIGHT for 7 days many years ago but coming from a fundamentalist upbringing they convinced me that those feelings of pure love and benevolence were from "the evil one" I'm sure you've all heard that one passage the born again' s use, of Satan being able to appear as a "being of light" but the Love comes from God and sustains the universe,always was always will be.It is NOW!Love IS eternal.For me it's not just FAITH but faith in and of itself is never a bad thing.I think i'm going to like it here  :dsunny:
