Re: what is your relegion?
what is your relegion?................."They will all be taught by Jehovah."—JOHN 6:45.
(Isaiah 54:13) And all your sons will be persons taught by Jehovah, and the peace of your sons will be abundant. (Micah 4:2) And many nations will certainly go and say: "Come, YOU people, and let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will instruct us about his ways, and we will walk in his paths." For out of Zion law will go forth, and the word of Jehovah out of Jerusalem. (Isaiah 2:2) And it must occur in the final part of the days [that] the mountain of the house of Jehovah will become firmly established above the top of the mountains, and it will certainly be lifted up above the hills; and to it all the nations must stream................. i would say it is elavated in a spiritual way. and firmly established. |

Re: Sum up your religious belief
I experience myself as living within a cosmos, not a chaos. All things have meaning and value, even if the meaning is often veiled.
And at the heart of everything is mercy and grace - not judgement and sacrifice. And the closer we ourselves live according to mercy and grace, both towards ourselves and others, the greater our clarity of understanding becomes. And that our "understanding" becomes embodied and expresses itself in our on-going lives. (Perhaps, the more true understanding, the more spontaneous) There was a time in my past when my mother had become senile, she had reverted to childhood and spoke as a six year old. She suffered a car accident, then a stroke. I remember holding her hand and she said...."Why is this happening to me? I've been a good girl." The memory haunts me and breaks my heart. Yet I think "explanations" - even "beliefs" - are a blasphemy against Reality-as-is. |
