GOD

[Sir Les]

Your welcome...The Idea is a good moral to follow through on!

I would also like to add that Israel the jews out of Eygpt, were promised a land flowing with milk and honey...the wilderness!
And God was with them, and told them to spy out Canaan, and take the seeds, and bring them back to the wilderness...God provided the water Already made ready out of the stone Moses struck with his staff...
So they had "free land" (Wilderness) (Water) (God)(people)..everything they needed to make their promised land out of the wilderness in peace, with out breaking any of the commandments they were already given, and told to hold dear in their hearts and minds!

The Jew chose to Go to war, and take land already made tame by other people...thus they coveted others belongings...and they murdered them to gain control of their land...This went against God's will!...Moses didn't enter this land they stole!
If you apply the commandments, and the will of God..who was with them...until the wars started...they never questioned the reason for their hardships, nor the bloodshed!
And they never tried to figure out why God has abandoned them ...Thus they now need nuclear weapons to keep what they stole!
Who wrote the Bible, come into Question, and I can see things have been added in, that are not trustworthy and true to the construct or foundation!
Nor do they agree with the commandments!..and terms of Idolatry.
So something is a muck with some parts of the Bible.
But Not with God!...he is the same, and holds up his will as being peaceful, loving all life, and being a helper in the garden himself...a Shaman...So we should also be like him...and share with every living thing.
I believe the Kingdom Of God includes many life forms.
We are just a small part of the whole, working in union...it is important to rise above the scribes and pharasies, so we learn the truth about this creator/heavenly Father, and His Son who conquered Death, and was taken up.

We can read into the Bible...If God was with them, then there was no need to go to war, to gain this land of milk and honey....breaking a commandment God established already...is in error.
And in being God, with them Jews, he could of made his paradise in a few minutes...if he could create the hole universe in six days, imagine what he could do in a few minutes with so many people working for the same goal...

Interesting idea. Where do you find any of that in scripture? You can pick which topic to start with and we can go from there. That should prove to be a nice discussion and not to much of a hijack. lol

Actually, I found Sir's post very interesting. I think this is all going where it is ment to. We should go with it.....

I agree with you Sir,that is why I mentioned the fact that the bible started out original books. Was then condensed into 1 book, and edited for sure by the Roman Catholic church, who WAS the grand daddy of "religion". Then interpretted, and so on.

This was also written so long ago that translation plays a HUGE role.

Look how many uses there are for the word up. On the surface you think of up as a direction, and it is. But you look things up, start up your truck, you stink up a place, you burn up a place.....

The way language was then, and the way it is now, it is really a whole new language, only worse, it sounds the same, yet means a BUNCH of things.....

I am so stoned, and I have a flu so I took a bunch of nyquil. I am going to go take a nap

I was hoping for more input from Les. I think he has some interesting views that would be fun to discuss.

[siSTARindigo]
