Those who believe that Jesus is the Son of God.
That he was killed on a cross and rose three days later.

Not one person here talks about living life according to the teaching of Jesus nor striving to be as he wanted us to be.

Everyone here is into instant salvation.

No wonder I don't like Organized Religion.

A follower or believer of Jesus should strive every day not to sin. If you don't know what sin is I'll put it you quickly. If you gather your Mother, Grandmother, Aunt, Younger Sister and ANY Minister or Priest together and you can't DO or SAY what is is you normall DO or SAY in front of them, then it's a sin.

If you go out on a date and squeeze your girlfriends backside and YOU CAN"T BRING YOURSELF to do that in front of MOM, GRADMA and the MINSTER, then what you are doing is WRONG.

If you go out and get DRUNK on Martini's and YOU can't do that in front of MOM, GRANYY and the PREACHER, then it is WRONG.

Anything you can't DO on CAMERA for LIVE TV is wrong.

Sin is something SOMEONE ELSE can blackmail you with.

Want to find out how sinful people are, let them run for PResident and the PRESS will find out everything they did in Grade Schoo, High School College and Business and thrust it out on the public.

They will OUT you.

Now we know what SIN is and I didn't say anything about GOD. It's something YOU are afraid of. You know, like your NEW girlfriend talking to your OLD girlfriend and comparing notes on you.

Like your new boss talking to your old boss on the phone about you.

And the old boss says you took half hour breaks.

That's a sin.

Jesus said SIN NO MORE.

So, you're supposed cut all that stuff out. For there is a BOOK OF LIFE and ALL that is known about you by GOD who sees you in the shower, in the bed, while you sleep, goes in there and a final decision is MADE on you based upon GOD's RULES at END OF TIMES.

This doesn't mean you can't have fun, but YOU are living the world of The TRUMAN SHOW and GOD reviews all tapes at the end of the day, except on the Sabbath.

This happens even if your not a christian. Atheists face it. Muslims face it. Buddists face it.

It's about living "a good life" and you can go off in several direction.

The Satanic life where you are evil and destory lives, businesses, pluder just so you can get a fat bank account in the Kamin Islands. YOu know. Out for yourself. You come first and NO ONE ELSE comes at all.

The Pagan life, where you're ok, but you like to screw around, girls are play things for you, finder keepers, no one is watching, I want the big piece, let's party hearty, supersize me, you only live once. You still remember your mom's birthday and you put a suit on for church.

The Godly life. Varies from religion to religion.

Jesus said we can do everything he did. That means walk on water (but don't try that at home, boys and girls, no one has yet to do it except for I think Paul or Peter and only for a few seconds).

Restore life (any of you Boy Scouts out there know CPR -- who says JEsus didn't do that or something even better that we have yet to discover within OURSELVES).

What JEsus didn't want us to do was die on a cross. He said sell all you own and buy a sword, BUT he also said when struck on the left cheek, give them your right cheek to also strike!

You draw that sword ONLY when absolutely required and you better know how to use it otherwise don't even take it out.

God said, Don't kill, so don't use that sword to kill a human. Just use it to keep from being killed yourself.

JEsus said, when ASKED for your COAT, give them YOUR CLOAK as well!

JEsus said when ASKED to carry something 5 miles, carry it 10 miles.

Don't just GO the DISTANCE, go beyond the distance.

Dont' judge. That is God's job.

Love your neighbor like you love yourself and love your enemy the most (that doesn't mean LIKE, it means LOVE). Muslim, gay, gentile, jew, atheist, drug dealer, prostitute, gambler.

Give to MAn what is mans and give to God what is Gods. JEsus said pay your taxes. Pay your fines. It's only man's money, God has no need of it. God wants YOU intact as as pure as possible.

YOu are your own gift to God and how clean or unclean is your temple!

GOD will NOT accept anyone with the MARK OF THE BEAST. No unclean temples allowed in heaven and I don't care HOW much you pray to JEsus, how much you praise his name, how many pictures of him you have on your wall or how much you pledge the church, if GOD views YOUR TEMPLE as being UNCLEAN you will not get past the gates.

GOD makes the final decision, not Jesus. JEsus is the Son Not the Father. The Son does not go against the Father, except to Honor God

Jesus said put God above your mother, your father, your son, your daughter.

Jesus, by this, admits GOD is above him. We can't put the SON above t GOD. We don't go against GOD in the name of any SON.

All JEsus promises is an audience with God. Only through JEsus can you reach the father. Everyone may have to go through a beuracracy or maybe get NO audience at all.

Jesus also promises you eternal life, if it's not in heaven, then what?!

God has final say on heaven.

Don't follow false prophets. You'll hear things like RAPTURE. RAPTURE is a concotion of a 15 year old girl named Margaret McDonald of Scotland in 1830. The WORD RAPTURE is not found the Bible.

Souls and people will rise up at end of times, but that is for final judgement by God.

There is probably not planet Elan or whatever is foudn in some other modern Prophecy books.

Be careful WHO you follow. Be careful WHO you give your allegences to. STick with God, it's a better bet. Arabs, Jews and Christians all have this ONE God concept. that covers over 65% of the world. IT's the PROPHETS you have to worry about.

Be careful with the Prophets. GOD comes before all else.

Keep a day of rest. Day for just resting.

Respect holy days.

Can't hurt to respect all of them! Remember God on those days.

Jesus said to keep from being a fornicator ALL men should marry. Jesus did NOT totally go aginst the Old Testiment views of sex between people who are NOT married. JEsus also said when you marry it's forever, except for adultery, which is one of the things God said not to do. Don't committ adultery. Don't adulerate a wife. Don't adulterate a husband. Don't adulterate YOUR OWN TEMPLE.

If your TEMPLE is dirty can it be cleaned? They tell us if you stop somking cigarettes in about 10 years it's like your never smoked at all. Can you cleans your temple, yet it it takes time and work. And you may still not be clean enough for heaven.

Did you EXPECT SOMETHING? Is THAT why you became a CHRISTIAN, because you EXPECT something! There is some reward that you are DUE, because of all that work. You expect Social Security! Is that what you're going to say to God when you get that audience becasue for some STRANGE reason you name can't be found in the book!

Don't expect. Religion is a SELFLESS ACT. YOu do it because it's the right thing to do. Anything more and you're pandering to God, you're proestuting yourself for salvation.

If you're into religion for some BADGE of honor. For some PAT on the back for being a good boy or girl, I have a suprise for you. GOD ALWAYS EXPECTED THAT OF YOU! You'd still be in Eden if that was a reality. You'd still be in paradise. You'd still be in HEAVEN instaed of on this rock. Go think again.

Keep your temple clean, clean it up and HOPE it passes Mom's inspection. That is the only thing WARANTED.

The idea is, your job is NOT to save yourself but to save others. You don't get to go to heaven but maybe someone YOU TOUCH will! If that isn't good enough for you, then you're pretty shallow and maybe that's why your name wasn't found in the book.

Religion is a selfless thing.

When you eat and drink remember Jesus. Remember he told you to PUT GOD above all else. Remember he told you not to judge. Remember he became the last scrifcial lamb so that man no longer had to cut an animal open on the altar anymore for God. The Olden days are done and this is a new era of kindness and generocity.

What can be false about love, kindness, gereocity, giving of yourself, not clinging to money, not clinging to possesson.

YOu can still have possession, just don't worship them!

Worship NO idols made of metal or stone or even wood.

What is a Christian.

Every girl is your sister or mother and is to be treated accordingly.

God is all and above all.

Watch your anger, don't react, be calm.

Don't cling.

Don't covet.

Do for others selflessly.

Live a good life.

Keep a clean temple.

It's not easy to follow in the footsteps of Jesus.
