I think morality is like every choice we make in our life there is a option for us to choose either this or that or something else but if we are a truly good person we will only choose the right course of action. Morality is like a tool given for us to remind us what is the right path and what is the wrong path, so even if someone takes the wrong path they can be reminded to go back to the right way. I think it's a good thing and if we keep following the right way we will eventually end up at a better place.
This is the problem in the world in my view. They make morality as a tool to suit their needs and don't recognize what it truly is. While it is a spirit from God we are all connected to. During Jesus time it was Jesus, when Jesus ascended, it was Elyas (Elijah) who was born before Jesus, and when Mohammad was sent it and ascended to the highest and holiest place of prostration in the sky, he became the leader. We are to be at service of this light, because it is the chosen leader and guide.
I find the bible is more explicit that it is a spirit from God than even the Quran which does state it but in more subtle way. For example, Jesus explicitly said he was the light of the world, and said some else holding this position would be sent after he leaves, and that even during their waiting period of that sent Messenger promised, they would be guided through someone who was the holy spirit and light of God to the world as was Jesus that during his time.
In fact, Jesus explicitly states he is the way. When we don't recognize this leader from God and make use of his light extending to us and his commands and advice for our sake, when we make it a tool for ourselves, as opposed to ourselves a tool for the light and prefer the leader from God over ourselves, everything goes wrong, because our priority is unbalanced.
We will use of the light and mix with it darkness.
I want to know how you interpret the following words of Jesus:
"I am the light of the world" "I am the door and the way..."
"I have been sent with the sword of God..."
With what the holy spirit is.....
It seems to me that the holy spirit was Jesus, but that as the holy spirit on earth had predecessors.
Who was the light of God and holy spirit of God on earth before Jesus? Who was the holy spirit after him? And who is the promised one to be sent that is predicted to also an instance of the holy spirit?
