It has the potential also to be all inclusive, but only if all were to adhere to the instinctual selfless conscience within themselves imparted by God and made possible to reunite with via the teachings, way, example, and self sacrifice of the one true Christ.(December 21, 2015 at 11:28 am)popsthebuilder Wrote: People often times don't understand that the word "believe" in the scripture means to adhere to whole heartedly in All you do without waver.
Faith in selfless Unity for Good.
Faith in selfless Unity Action for Good is what I can get on board with.
"Unity" is dangerously problematic because it puts a halt on the critical thought processes which are required for anyone to really see the difference between good and evil. If I were to start thinking like everyone else again, as I did (or tried to) when I was a Christian, then I would become blind to abuses within my organization for the presumption that Christian organizational leaders are appointed by my god. I would see only the friendly smile, and hear only comforting words, and it would take something particularly outrageous and vile to wake me up to the notion that said leader isn't really what he's supposed to be.
Scripture <> Good unless you are already a Christian,
and
Good <> God.
Therefore, if you want to sell your bible or your god outside of your echo chamber (sorry, but you act exactly like one who just crawled out of one), then you have a lot of proving to do. Protip: Don't waste time on bible quotes, that old pile means nothing here. Also, don't argue, because argument is not evidence, and evidence is both culture-proof and reason-proof (just in case you don't understand the word "empirical").
You speak of my God; I speak of One Creator GOD. I'd be delighted to speak of any topic, or specifics you would like. Insults or negativity in any form is counter productive, and a waste of energy.
Peace
Faith in selfless Unity for Good.
