					<description>Jesus called Paul into the ministry and Paul constantly reveres Jesus. Jesus predicted the future. Jesus stated that the scriptures bore witness to him as the source of their salvation. Jesus is called the Word of God in Rev. Jesus is the lamb slain from the foundation of the earth. Satan obeyed Jesus. The devils asked for permission to enter the swine. Jesus performed miracles before his death. God AND the Lamb are the light of the new heaven and earth. Man was created as a triune being just like God. Go back and read Genesis. Jesus didn't rebuke after being worshiped.  Believe what you will, but don't be hasty about it. Ye do err not knowing the scriptures.</description>

					<description>If the canonical gospels as handed down through the millenia to us are tainted by doctrinal and textual additions, emendations and coarse edits made to suit various political ends at the time these changes were made, wherein might we have faith in the story of Jesus of Nazareth, prophet of God?  Among the words in the Bible that we might trust that Jesus actually said, as you noted, constitute perhaps his most profound teaching: 

"Love God with all thy heart and all thy mind and all thy soul, and do thou love thy neighbor as thou love thyself."  

That is true wisdom, regardless of whether it comes to us via the prophethood of Jesus. 

And yes, our neighbors include our "enemies" as well, such as we may conceive of them.

But going the extra mile and turning the other cheek are often likely to result only in terminal soreness and finding oneself somewhere in a place not of one's own choosing.  

Wisdom certainly does not demand the passive acceptance of injustice and war as a means of bypassing the potential suffering that might result from one's confrontation with these and other harsh realities in favor of staying on some imagined "higher road" to personal happiness. This is nothing but a crock of new age nonsense.  Such a course is, at best, simply selfish and hedonistic idiocy and, at worst, a way of delusional solipsism in collusion with the forces of exploitation and degradation that are all ultimately bound to be defeated and destroyed. 

And if, historically, Christianity does claim to stand for such avoidant quiescence, then what about the allegedly Christian doctrines of those men who brought us the Crusades, and missionaries and pederast priests in Africa, the Americas, Australia and Asia?

Not very God-fearing, God-loving, or Jesus-like, those, I venture to say.  Something critical has clearly been lost in translation and grossly distorted with the passage of time.

I agree completely with the idea you expressed that piety or faith in God Almighty is central to a life of peaceful co-existence and social justice for humankind, as Jesus said. 

Therefore I suggest as a guide to useful action towards those ends, to raise us out of the torpor into which we have been lulled, the idea expressed in the following hadith: 

We shoud each have such deep and abiding faith in God that we trust and know that all things depend solely on God.... but, nevertheless: 

We should each act in such a manner as if everything were to depend solely on the quality and extent of our actions. 

This is my understanding of wisdom brought forward into the realm of deeds. 

It is not all that different from the wisdom expressed in the Bhagavad Gita, which is:  to act with full intention, mindfulness, vigor, intelligence and courage, but not to be attached to the outcome, or fruit, of one's actions. 

For only God controls the ends. 

But thanks to our free will, we do have a choice as to the means by which we act, or fail to act.  And so for us, the means do in fact constitute the end.  Truly, then, the means by which we choose to act must be just within and of themselves.

For, as a mercy, God gives us this most precious gift - the freedom of will to choose, to make moral choices.  And the outcome of our actions depends upon God's mercy, as well.  

From God we arise and to God we must return.</description>

					<description>David,

I think that this article contains your most thoroughly thought out, incisive, concise, and important pieces of historical analysis.  I agree that the Pauline and Nicene post hoc deification of Jesus Christ is a keystone in the overarching luciferian game plan.  

Beside all of the occult overlays with Mithraism and associated practices, it works quite simply to corrupt the masses in this way:  If Jesus can be God, then it opens the door to the concept of the deification of any man.  Hence, if Jesus could be God, why not you, or me?  Why not Crowley, or Bush, or Hitler, or a Rothschild?

The idea that man could become God, or that God is weak and incomplete and in need of man's help, are the quintessences of the luciferian and cabalistic inversions.  And, indeed, such ideas are the very antitheses of Islam, wherein "shirk", placing anything or anyone, even an idea, on an equal footing with God is the worst sin or blasphemy, and constitutes one of the most utter forms of self-abasement to which a human being might fall.  To confess to being muslim means to exercise one's free will in complete submission to, and surrender before, God, the One, the Only, the Manifest, the Hidden.  

God the One is ultimately reality, the Truth, of which there is no second or partner, of which evil and all its manifestations are but themselves partial attributes of God's creation.  Thus, Unity is all encompassing.  And this ineffable Reality is what the cabalists and luciferians fear most, because it represents the diminution or loss of their own aggrandized and overweaning egos, which they must strive to prop up with all manner of nefarious, duplicitous, and despicable deeds.  So that they might seem real or meaningful to themselves in the vacuum of their denial of God. So they marinate themselves in an evil of their own relative creation as an, albeit futile, attempt to stave off their own recognition and acceptance of the Infinite.  

It might be said that "they can't handle the Truth."</description>
