" But the question that is perhaps most significant of all is why was Jesus born Jewish? Once again, only God knows.......Jesus lived and died Jewish."
Most trinitarians accept that God is three persons, father, son, and holy ghost.
But what can make sure that God consists of three persons? What if he simply hasn't revealed a fourth person to us yet? How do we know that there are exactly three and not two or just one with three "masks"?
Could it be? Is it a possibility? What would it mean to the followers of Christ that call themselves Christians because they believe that "Jesus died for my sins".
So, this is a rather old event, but it's been on my mind for a long time. I need some ... thoughts sorted out, you know?
I live on a farm, just for some background information. We usually have about 6 ewes that produce lambs each year. They're born in the spring, as the snow is just beginning to melt.
Last year, we had several disappointments, to say the least. Not unexpected living on a farm but it hurt nonetheless.
I don't remember (or don't want to remember) the exact happenings, but:
Looking at the scriptures and seeing that Jesus went off by himself many times and encourages others to retreat., if Jesus was around to day would he be able to withstand our busy way of life - no seashores or hilltops outside the city gates. Do you think he would retrieve messages on his Blackberry or would he urge all of us to throw cell phones, blackberries and similar devices away?
80 kilo winds here. have to have something to think about.
I became to follow Christ when I go to Cegep. I meet Jesus in a catholic charismatic meeting. This was before my coming out. After my conversion, I decide to improve my knowledge of my faith. I follow course on catholicism with Opus Dei. After two years, I have finish my Cegep and I decide to work for Christ. I go to Montreal University in theology studies. At the same time, I decide to become a priest in a religious community.
As we know, human beings are in fact animals. We are of nature and we are nature. We are as much nature as plants and other animals. What is it that makes us different from other animals then?
It is our advanced minds that seperate us from nature (or vainly attempt to). Nature, from which humans attempt to diverge from is OUR true nature as humans. Our true nature is essentially Jesus Christ, it is Buddha nature.
