Can the world condition be worse than this?

by abiather in

the innocent civilians being attacked is the norm of the day.

attacking hospitals too are happening frequently.

now schools being attacked is becoming a regular affair (last of its kind massacred 150 children in peshawar on december 16, 2014)..

Galaxie,

Humans have given me bitterness—including my sweet heart!

Hence I trust only God. I go into meditation, and stop all my thinking (talk of the mind). Depending upon the need of the hour, I assume God as my Father, Preceptor, Companion, Sweet Heart, Mother, Teacher and God Almighty, and receive a sort of link to a supernatural source of power, pure feeling, joy, love, peace, discretion, and bliss respectively.

If I sense any problem in my day-to-day life, I alert Him, and He pre-empts it for me! (You may laugh at this—yet this is my experience)

Cofty,

Galzxie,

Lebanese philosopher Khalil Gibran narrates, Once Beauty and Ugliness met on a seashore. And they said to one another, Let us bathe in the sea. They disrobed and swam in the waters. After a while, Ugliness came back to the shore, wore the garments of Beauty and walked away. Beauty came later, could not find her robe, was too shy to be naked, so clothed herself in Ugliness robe and walked away. To this day, men and women mistake one for the other and identify them from dressed appearance.

However, in my case, I have not experienced goodness and beauty from anywhere except from the invisible hand of God. I have helped many people—including my family members. It is ok if they do not show gratitude. But they enjoy doing harm to me. Hence I am not trying to prove anything. I just wrote what I am observing and experiencing.

When a Witness claim the uniqueness of Bible and its accurate prophecies!

by abiather in

with the bulletin of atomic scientists moving its iconic doomsday clock up 2 minutes on 23.01.2015 (which means we are just three minutes closer to midnight in comparison to 17 minutes to midnight in 1991), and rapturewatch.net/timelines.htm predicting the end of the world as early as 2017, subject of last days is getting heated up again..

next time you have a witness boasts about the uniqueness of biblical propheciesespecially about last days, you can point the following photographic description of our times found in srimad bhagavatam, one of the ancient scriptures written even before the bible:.

1) religion, truthfulness, cleanliness, tolerance, mercy, duration of life, physical strength and memory will all diminish day by day because of the powerful influence of the age of kali (age of unrigteousness).12.2.1.

Viviane,

Entropy requires no proof--the very fact that we left JWs itself is the proof. Many of us left them because we experienced them becoming worse than other religions

Nature of community is the reflection of the individuals that make up that community.

For example,

1) all the RELIGIONS were good when they started, then gradually deteriorated into a money making machine.

2) HOSPITALS start as charitable institution, then they become a synonym for greed!

3) Communism came as a replacement of tyranny, only to become more tyrannical later

4) JWs came accusing all religions to be Satan’s instrument, yet they became Satan's worse tool—declaring God felt challenged by Satan, not even greeting those leaving them …

That’s why all the scriptures (that include Bible and Bhagavatam) foretell about moral decline reaching a climax in the last days (which is ENTROPY in one word)

In my case, I have helped many people (including my family members), yet it is ok if they are not thankful—but if they do harm to me, what should I term it? I would call Entropy of the mind!

Viviane,

My subject is ENTROPY.

You are now concerned about at what speed it is happening, and ask me what do I mean by day-by-day!

Entropy is a fact experienced everywhere—whether it happens day-by-day, or year-by-year does not matter!

Leaders spying on other leaders of friendly nations and even on own citizens are all the proofs that entropy is at work!

Cofty & Viviane

You are free to hold your view that world is getting better and better day-by-day.

My experience is that world is becoming worse and worse day-by-day.

Interestingly, former Pope Benedict XVI shared my view of the world (http://www.bostonglobe.com/news/world/2013/02/12/popemain/bit1RIB2rL0hlshVpiAiKJ/story.html). He was hesitant to lead an organization that is going to become bankrupt because of on-going settlements of cases involving pedophile priests. And not only Pope, virtually all world leaders too share my experience. See how much security arrangements they do when they visit even a friendly country. Some of them even request for a no-fly zone over the hotel they stay in as guests.

Viviane, You say we know “elevation and entropy” to be false!

Entropy is a fact because people in general do not learn from their mistakes, but only repeat them. We know spending more than our income is a bad habit—yet which Government does not suffer from debt. Do you have any idea about US Federal debt? Trillions and Trillions. It fought all the Middle East wars on borrowed money. Yet did it make that part of the world a safer place? Is the situation worse than before? Only in last year how many journalists were beheaded there? The very fact that we humans have not learned to live in peace with each other is the proof that entropy is the norm of the day!

I know a marriage counselor who helped over 200 couple to reunite from their divorced status. She is a retired Judge and Human Rights activist (not a psychologist). The technique she used in all of them was very simple: “Go to your ex-spouse and say ‘let us start again, as if nothing has happened between us.’” If these magical 11 words worked with that many divorcees, it can definitely work with Israel and Palestine, or with any others who are in conflicted relationships. What is needed is the will to come out of the self-made prison of past!

Yet humans in general are not doing such an easy thing, instead resort to age-old wasteful idea that war-preparedness is better security than a friendly neighbor. Why? We are evolving physically, but mind is not evolving!

The best argument that we have an immaterial part (called Spirit/Soul) came from Jesus Christ

by abiather in

the best argument that we have an immaterial part (called spirit/soul) came from jesus christ.

however, it is recorded in the gospel of thomas (not in the traditional four gospels).

jesus says: if the flesh came into existence because of the spirit, it is a marvel.

villageidiot,

It is not that I have not seen Mathew 10:28.

Barak Obama would not say sometime in the 20th century that “no one from the black community has become US President except me.” He can make such statement only after becoming the President! So is the case with Jesus: “No one has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from heaven—the Son of Man.” (John 3:13) He obviously ascended into heaven after his death, not in the beginning of his ministry, because context is that he is talking to Nicodemus. If John 3:13 is not spoken by Jesus, what about the subsequent verse 3:16, which says: “God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”

If such major subject as ransom teaching was later interpolation, Bible itself says we have to use discretion to quote from the bible. (1 Thess 5:21)

In the light of the above Biblical warning, we can know that Mathew 10:28 would not have been spoken by Jesus who had already declared categorically that the obedient ones experience only the physical death (death of the body), but his spirit survives the death of his body. (John 5:24). In this saying, there is no departure from the OT where we find the statement: “the spirit returns to God” following man’s physical death. (Ecclesiastes 12:7)

To make the ransom teaching meaningful, Bible writers (rather editors) had to invent many verses such as Mathew 10:28.

Phizzy,

You are wonderful, great. What I had in my mind you discerned perfectly.

If evolution is true, it should be EQUALLY true everywhere--why only be restricted to body?

Mind is not evolving, rather it is going downward! Our deep-rooted prejudices remain as they were--anything we term as progress is only an eye-wash, just cosmetic toch.
