God is absent of Sin. God did not create sin. Sin was developed by our free will to choose to rebel against god. So not all things that exist are from god.

The Bible plainly states what comes from god and what does not.

No the Old Testament is divinely inspired however it was written by men. Some of these men like King David had serious character flaws, as do all human beings. Humans also tend to make laws, rules, regulations that go against what god wants. For example the Israelites wanted a king like all the other civilizations. God gave them a king because it was what they desired but it was never his plan for them to have humanistic rule and because of their disobedience they had to suffer through their choices.

God never taught the Eye for an Eye doctrine however there were a few times in which he did order the Israelites to committee mass execution.

Jesus abolished the Eye for an Eye doctrine because it was never a divine order. It was a man made moralistic law.

Have you ever read the bible?
He opposed laws created by man not the laws created by god. "Ye cast the first stone who has not sinned" He taught the same message of faith not the religious dogma that god never created.Jesus never opposed the ten commandments. Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I did not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, not one letter, not a dot, will dissappear from the law until all that must happen has happened. Anyone therefore who sets aside even the le ast of the law's demands and teaches others to do the same, he shall be called the least in the Kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them. the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. (Matt. 5:1 7-19) |

Jesus taught the same principals as Yahweh in the torah. Jesus came to fulfill the prophecies and bring eternal salvation teaching the same message from torah. God is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow the message never changed so the Old Testament has everything to do with Jesus’s teachings

I believe he wasn’t influenced by any outside source because he is the divine. Only someone who has no knowledge of Christianity and Buddhism can believe there similar doctrines the very foundations of each faith are polar opposites.

“Was Jesus really a Buddhist? The answer is not yes or no, but rather to what extent Jesus was or was not a Buddhist.”
What a joke there’s plenty of Buddhist who live near me but it doesn’t make me a Buddhist nor does it affect my philosophical outlook. Christianity and Buddhism are completely two different faiths with two different agendas. Similarities in morality do not make them the same. Christianity is the same doctrine as the Torah or Old Testament, which is far older than Buddhism. |

WHY I DON"T BELIEVE IN SATAN
|

Sure they’re passed down. There are generational curses and generational blessings. It doesn’t mean the generational curses can’t be broken. For Example a pregnant woman who becomes a junkie receives aids through her drug use. Her unborn child also gets the disease through sharing the blood with its mother. Is it fair for the child that he or she is punished for her mother’s actions? No but it doesn’t make it any less real.

All children are born into sin. Sin is a generational curse and can be passed up to the 10th generation. We all are accounted for the fall of man from our greatest ancestor Adam and Eve. However there is a certain time where children are not accountable for there sins. Jesus said to enter into the kingdom of heaven you have to be like children. There is most definitely a symbol of purity and innocents in children but there is no true human innocents. So no I don’t believe babies go to hell.

Being saved is something inward and personal. Only God and the individual truly know if they’re saved. Pronouncing salivation is as simple as saying im god however it doesn’t make it true. In truth all humans are sinners we were born into sin and will die in sin. Being saved doesn’t make you sinless it just allows for the ultimate forgiveness. Everyone falls short of perfection no matter how well they might live their life.

Self-divinity is the religious doctrine of Satan. By denying the creator and putting yourself into godhead your doing exactly what Satan did long ago. All new age movements and satanic cults preach the “god consciousness” this concept is far from new and is the same deceiving doctrine since the rebellion.

"Feel free to spread the pictures around to anyone who needs to know that Sarah Palin most definitely does not speak for all Alaskans."
She actually does speak for all Alaskans because she was voted as there representative. That’s how a republic works however to say that all people in a geographical area will believe exactly the same thing is nonsense and anyone who needs to see pictures to believe that not all Alaskan agree with Palin is a Moron. |

BLACKS VS WHITES In AMERICA

Racism like any other form of discrimination does exist and will always exist. Although great strides have been made in to change the social norm of discrimination in the western world it is sadly our very nature to discriminate. Naturally through the very instinct of survival a living organism with even the slightest form of intelligence categorizes objects and other living organisms. Sometimes consciously and other times subconsciously. Although social values and norms can be changed through personal experience. For instance a dog is a natural predator to a cat. In the natural state the dog and the cat will follow the predator/prey class. However if a dog and a cat are raised together at birth there social hierarchy can change due to outside influence, which can avert their very genetic nature. Human beings have a natural survival instinct to classify everything as “different” rather it be physical or even social as something to take with caution or to avoid. Its only through life experiences and even education can this opinion be changed. Discrimination goes so far beyond the racial perspective and its, because like it or not it’s a natural survival instinct.

I agree that McCain has major character flaws but I would say Barrack Obama is on the same political scum boat with most politicians….. but what do I know I’m just a typical white person ;)

Dear John, Thank you so much for your email re the McCain story. I really appreciate your following up.I did not write the original email or story but forwarded it from a friend who knows Ana, the woman who had this experience. Since that is the case, kindly remove my name and work address from your blog immediately. I understand she (Ana) has contacted the New York Times and the Washington Post as well as the people who were on Turtle Island with her.I am trying to reach her to ask if I can give out her name. I regret my email was mistakenly sent from my work email whereas it should have been sent via my personal email. The story was not written by the supposed author but forwarded from someone she "knows" who supposedly had this encounter, which almost sounds beyond ridiculous. I'm not a supporter of McCain BUT This is an obvious smear campaign. The only way to verify the story is for the original author to step up to the plate and for others who were present at these incidents to verify or corroborate this story. |
