Hi Michael,
This is the answer to your question. In mercy does God successively reveal spiritual Truth to his children corresponding with our ability to receive it, through revelations great and small on the evolutionary worlds of time and space, but he NEVER interferes with the evolution of our wisdom. It is up to man to determine weather or not mans writings about God are factual. Jesus didn't come to earth to reform Judaism, fix it's conjecture and speculation, HOWEVER, his God revealing Life did in fact greatly improve our concepts of the Father revealed in his life. Before Christ man may have had some justification in his belief of the more primitive concepts of deity written of by man in the scriptures, but not after. Now that we have a greater vision of the Father in the Son, we have no excuse! Before the age of scientific inquiry, man may have been justified in his creations stories, but not now. Religion is very slow to reform.
Dear Caino,
And this is my response to you. What you speak seems to be heresy, for Jesus said Himself, that "He who hath seen Me, hath
seen the Father." Now that being the case, you are saying that God created, in His Image, an ancestor of a chimp or ape?? You all feed upon one desire: to alter the words of God and Jesus to suit your own whims and your UB {Urantia Book}. I abhor your Book and the Book of the Moslem's, the Koran, for starters. A mixture of copying what God says about Himself and then adding whatever else they so please. Did you know that the Koran has the story of Joseph in it thousands of years
after it was already written in the Hebrew Bible, our Old Testament.
That's not the only thing they copy. One thing they say is something God said or did {like the story of Joseph} and then mix it in with other words that are lies from Satan. You don't understand all of the dynamics of what lies can do. Satan is cast down into the Earth, and he confronts the Truth of God with tons of lies. Some are quite successful. But, only the people entering the straight gate will be led to Heaven, while all of the other gates are closed because their paths do not lead to Heaven. It's your eternal life. What do you want to do about it?? Do you want to mess up losing it when you've waited so long for the time to reach there?
It is of great importance because even one man, besides more I'm sure, read the story of Joseph in the Koran and he cried upon finishing the story, so he became a Moslem. His name, Yusuf Islam, a.k.a. Cat Stevens. Do you know how close he came to being Christian instead? You don't understand what lies can screw up a man's life. I will not go on any longer, because you aren't going to believe me anyways. There is so much more than you realize the fact that Satan has tons of wrongdoing, but there is only ONE Truth of the matter, and that is what HE SAYS. For example, Earth is inhabited. That is the absolute truth. Now here comes someone else saying, the Earth is not inhabited because everyone has gone to Heaven or Hell. That is a LIE. That has not happened, though it might seem to be true. It's either one or the other. Only one way can be true at the time it is declared. Do you know that Hell is mild compared to the Lake of Fire? {See Rev. 19:20KJV}. Next, see Rev. 20:14KJV, "And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death..."
Hell is one place for evil souls. It is within the center of our Earth. The bottomless pit, Caino. The Earth is round, so it has a center and a top, because everyone feels they are on the top of the Earth re: gravity. This is Hades, Hell, the nether regions, lava and magma pit. Just think of a Ball that only has a top and a center, but you cannot ascertain where the bottom is. First a soul is sent here, most of the time. But there are some who will go straight to the Lake of Fire, where they will eternally stay there and it is much hotter than Hell. The Lake of Fire is into our Sun. It is much hotter than Hell, and it is a permanent punishment. Hell will give up those souls in her, and they shall be judged by the Lord, some will go to Heaven and some will go to the Lake of Fire. There are a lot of conditions and fine print, but I can't go into it here.
I can tell you that lightning is 5 or more times hotter than the surface of the Sun. Hey, enough is enough. If you want, you will learn these things as your life goes on, Caino. I know it seems like a lot to take in, and it is. So I'll hold my tongue for now. You will grow some in spirit and soul. Okay, it's almost 6:30 a.m. which is way past my bedtime by about 3-4 hours.
I care about you plenty, Caino, and will help you with any questions you have. But I may have to tell you in a PM. Some others will not be ready because they haven't read this post first, or for other reasons also. I should close for now. Have a joyful day, keeping your thoughts and hearts on Jesus' Return. I've learned the things I've told you from an impeccable source. That being said, I am not just saying what I've THOUGHT UP in my HEAD. This is the real thing, and you can bank on it.
I will keep quiet about my source, for now. Just learn slowly. The devil is more than ready to start filling your head with other lies to sway you from the real truth, because you might tell someone, who will tell someone else, etc. Soon enough, it spreads like wildfire. Also, you might learn too much truth that you will not go to Hell, and the devil will lose your soul. That's not good for him. He wants your soul, so he can add you to his followers and spread evil lies to many others, like wildfire. Now do you see why it's important to watch what you say. I've screwed up a couple times and have learned the hard way. But everyone has to go through the same stuff. But it was about something much more than this. Okay, it's almost 6:30 a.m. which is way past my bedtime by about 3-4 hours.
God Be With You! Learn Slowly. Don't start thinking a bunch of other stuff, but only what I've said here. This is just something to ponder for now.
Michael
