Religion & Spirituality - 24 September 2006

According to early Vedic Hinduism, there were two paths to Salvation.
1. The Karma marg that stated even a man or women who did not believe in God went to heaven if he had performed good deeds and was a good person.
2. The Bhakti marga stated that if a man had his personal path to salvation and aligned his life to whatever divinity he believed in, irrespective of the path, as long as it led him to pious deeds, he would go to heaven.

Thus, whether you were Christian, Jewish, Atheist, Agnostic, Gay, etc, you had your means for personal salvation.

Thus, though I am an agnostic, and sometimes wonder if there is a heaven like place to which we go, if there is one, I believe all people go there irrespective of their beliefs and only on the basis of the content of their lives.

That is just mine. I am interested in knowing, that IF there was a heaven, who do you think would go there? I would assume you would base this on your beliefs.

Probably misinterpreted by everyone,

I'm a heterosexual atheist who is pro-gay rights. I don't think people or born straight or gay, I think they just become one the other or both at some point(s) in their life.

Your thoughts please.

I keep trying to spread the word that RA, the SUN GOD is all powerfull.

He will cast all unbelievers into the TOMB of 10,000 SNAKES.

Why are people asking for proof of his existence? It's called FAITH people!

Why would you run the risk of being locked in a tomb with 10,000 Snakes?? I mean YIKES! SNAKES....Come on!

What does your bible tell YOU?

Isaiah promised the Messiah first to suffer and die for our sins-and then to come back to reign. 52vs13-53vs12

to be born a sign unto a virgin and be God with us "A Virgin will have a sign and bring forth God with us ."(emanuel in Hebrew)

Isaiah 9 vs 6 "Unto us a child is born a son is given, and he will be the prince of peace, the almighty God, and the wonderful counselor."

who is your Messiah-God didnt lie when he promised and without him we have no atonement for sins-

Moses-"The life of the flesh is in the blood and I have given it to make atonement for your sins."

Jeremiah 31vs31 "I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, not like the one i made with Moses, and ye shall be my people and i will be your personal God."

The Bible constantly contradicts itself so please don't use God or the Bible as a reference!

When I go to bed at night, as I look up over me, I see many flickering wavy rays of lights moving all over. This started about one month ago and it is not every night. No alcohol or drugs involved here and vision is normal. Yesterday there was a show about mediums on the cable channel and this guy said he started off seeing flickers of light and eventually started to see people who had passed. Could I be starting to see ghosts or spirits or angels or something like that? I hope not because I would be so afraid that I would probably go into cardiac arrest if I saw a whole person.

John chapter a rabbi cometh to Jesus to ask how to be born again----and For God so loved the world--have you fallen into his care and salvation-or do u deep in your heart live in despair-Messiah says if you reject him and his word you will be judged to hell gnashing teeth forever-for rejecting the greatest treasure on earth-his sinless sacrifice for your sins in our life-John 12vs48 and chapters 19-22 in Revelation-describe hell and heaven.

Jewish -Daniel 12 vs 2 says hell is aborance forever

Do you agree with this?


Mary had a little lamb,
His fleece was white as snow.
And everywhere the children went,
The Lamb was sure to go.

He followed them to school each day,
Twasn't even in the rule.
It made the children laugh and play.
To have the Lamb at school.

And then the rules all changed one day,
Illegal it became;
To bring the Lamb of God to school,
Or even speak his Name.

Everyday got worse and worse,
And days turned into years.
Instead of hearing children laugh,
We heard gun shots and tears.

What must we do to stop the crime,
That's in our schools today?
Let's let the Lamb come back to school,
And teach our kids to pray!

Moses--"The life of the flesh is in the blood and I have given it to make atonement for your souls."

do you have a blood atonement to forgive your sins?? the Jewish high priest offered it once a year-without believing in it you were considered a rebel against Judaism.

Isaiah 52vs 13-53vs12 "He will be exaulted as Messiah, but first will be marred more than any man-(Did u see the movie Jesus of Nazareth?) He will be rejected by his people and lay down his life to make atonement for sins. He will die with the wicked and be burried with the rich (Jesus was placed in a rich mans tomb-Luke-and History

well according to the bible u cant be a true Jew if you reject the Jewish Messiah, Isaiah and Moses

pray with me-and write downt he verses-

Dear Messiah come into my heart, thanks for dying for my sins and offering me a new beginning-help me and be my friend-amen. Revelation 1vs1& 3vs19&20 "Messiah saith, I love you and stand at your heart to come in, deliver and beFriend
