Ever-Embracing
Heavenletter #4697 Published on: October 4, 2013
God said:
My heart is impeccably linked to yours. When this is the case, what can you be upset about? And yet you are. Interminably, you are upset about something. Upset is all for naught. What good is there in your being upset? Invariably, whatever it is that is upsetting you, it is here today and gone tomorrow.

Regardless of all the theories, there is no percentage in your being upset. Being upset is like flapping your wings and going nowhere.

The only good thing about upset that I see is that when the intense upset is over, you feel a great sense of relief. What you have been relieved of is upset. Somewhere along the line you picked up the idea that you had to be upset. Would that somewhere along the line you learned to feel relief in the first place.

Who taught you that upset is natural and that you must have it? What is upset? It is tension. It is feeling tight, uptight. Upset is a burden, like a rope tightened around your neck. What is there about upset that you possibly like? Why keep upset close to you as though it were a valuable commodity?

I will tell you that simple relaxation beats upset any day. Do not believe for one minute that you are meant to have a predilection for upset. Why on Earth would you believe that?

Look, if you see a train coming, jump out of the way. Look both ways when you cross the street. If preparing a meal for twenty-five people makes you tense, why are you preparing a meal for twenty-five people? Who said you have to be exacting of yourself?

If hurry hurry hurry is a way of life for you, change your way. Hurry takes too much out of your hide. Easy does it makes you young. Are you in a hurry to grow old?

Who is it that puts pressure on you? Probably you are the culprit. Must you allow that? Is it better to be Brer Rabbit than the Tortoise? Is there something wrong in your being who you are in terms of your grasp of the world? Must you grasp the world at all?  Must you whip life into obeyance?

Perhaps you relax a little when you are riding in a train or an airplane. At these moments you have let go of your responsibility toward life. Your life is in the hands of the pilot or the train conductor. You are not driving the car.

Can you not relax in life in the knowledge that you are riding with Me? Perhaps you can slow down a bit knowing that I am in charge. Will you relax with Me? Consider that We are dancing together, and I take the lead, and you follow. It’s pretty good to be a follower of Mine. What that really means is that, in our dancing, We are in tandem. How graceful We are as We step this way and that and as We move and as We twirl and as We look into the twin mirrors of Our hearts. 

We are not in any hurry to end Our dance. In any case, Our dance is unending. Close or far, We are dancing, follow My lead. Beloveds, We are dancing on the town, and We are dancing in Silence. We are ever-dancing and ever in an embrace. We do not dance a dance of tension. We dance a dance of grace. If anything, We unwind. You don’t need to do handstands for Me. It is enough for Us to look into each other’s eyes and know peace. We are at peace. What else could We possibly be as Our souls soar and We trip the light fantastic?


--------------------
Life is an expression of countless endless words that are true for you and the universe and all the time it will come to your mind life and spirit of humanity and your life you are truly grateful to be alive you are the great one of this universe you are wise and truly endless in your nature...

The LORD then gave these further instructions to Moses: 'Tell the people of Israel to keep my Sabbath day, for the Sabbath is a sign of the covenant between me and you forever.  It helps you to remember that I am the LORD, who makes you holy.  Yes, keep the Sabbath day, for it is holy.  Anyone who desecrates it must die; anyone who works on that day will be cut off from the community.  Work six days only, but the seventh day must be a day of total rest.  I repeat: Because the LORD considers it a holy day, anyone who works on the Sabbath must be put to death.'  Exodus 31:12-15

^^ The bible is awesome :datass:




Yes it is awesome, I don't know what point you're trying to make in posting those beautiful old testament passages. If youre trying to show that God is bad because he puts people to death, you need to understand that that was just his way of demonstrating his power to the people back then. People would not have feared a god who didn't mean business and the bible says that wisdom begins in fear of the Lord. God is good.

This guy sounds no different to a mob boss or any other leader that uses fear to manipulate its soldiers. The bible lacks credibility anyway it was written by Men not God which is a subjective term depending who you talk too.

spirituality is just theory unless you mix it into your materiality
but the will to power is the same in both realms

fortunately for spirituality the cost of a computer is greater than that of a human, so humans will still be there for religion after the market has left humans behind for mechanicals and puters.

This is a main objection to debate with christians. The double standard.  Every thing god does is good no matter how bad it actually is but if man does it it's evidence of his godlessness.  It's a pretty obvious case of in the name of defending your belief system at any cost.

You're either the greatest troll I've ever encountered of the singly most ignorant heartless human being I've shared thoughts with.

The bible says...

--Slavery is totally cool, and you can beat the slave so long as they dont die

--Homosexuals are evil and will go to hell (despite animals displaying naturally homosexual tendencies)

--Non fish sea food is unclean and sinful
Wearing clothes made from more than one material is sinful (hope youre not eating shrimp or wearing any kind of modern clothing)

--Sitting on the same bench as a woman on her period makes you unclean until sundown

--Sinful thoughts are sins

--Masturbation is a sin

--Premarital sex is a sin

Basically human nature is a sin, I hope youre adhering to all of this as you are preaching it.

For sure, I have seen this at play many times and its certainly not limited to Religion as you already know but they do have a history of drawing large quantities of fanatics. I once knew a guy who would literally block his ears when his Religious beliefs were in question...

Yeah exactly, all the writings are written by men though unlike my post the bible claims to be the word of God.

lol its always the same with your type. there are two possibilies. One possibility is that God is evil/doesn't exist because the Bible doesn't make sense to you. The other possibility is that your understanding is incorrect. Why do you automatically assume that the former is true and ignore the latter possibility? It is not logical.

To bolster the irony, your own post betrays your ignorance and actually proves that you do not understand what you are attempting to critique. For example, you hope I am adhering to the Moasic law when I am not a Jew and thus was never under the law.

Furhermore your statement "basically human nature is a sin" is exactly the point! Human beings have fallen nature.

You can agree or disagree. I dont care, but I do ask that you have at least a third grade understanding level of christianity before you begin running your mouth about it.

The entire premise of christianity is that humans fell from a state of grace into a state of corruption. orginally we existed in a state of spiritual bliss, virtue came naturally to us and earth was set to be a paradise. After the fall, we lost our spiritual joy and thus became addicted to the pleasures offered through the body, the flesh. Christianity teaches us that we can recapture the peace we were originally created for, by going against our nature (the way that seems right unto a man is the way that leads to death) and developing virtue and unselfish love to the max, while making no provision for the flesh. Obviously our nature is to seek out pleasures of the flesh.

Now I have lived both ways. I know what it is like to live according to the flesh and I know that the happiness attained in that state is never lasting. I also know what it is like to live in the spirit, giving up the search for happiness outside and relying on the Lord instead. This has brought me great joy and peace.

that is all that christianity is. my only desire is for others to discover the wellspring of unlimited joy which I have found.

i understand that many people, such as yourself most likely, are incapable of understanding spiritual truth or interpretating scripture and thus will not agree with me. I can respect that, for i myself was an atheist for 20 years. but you could at least behave in a respectful manner. calling me a troll for trying to share my joy with others, only demonstrates your immaturity. this is the spirituality and mysticism forum. you are the one who is trolling by the very definition of the word. my posts are sincere, from my heart and on topic for the forum.

if you dont believe in this stuff, why are you on this forum?

I am the vessel of gods message, believe in me and you will be saved, because if you arent saved you will be raped by well hung african penguins with sandpaper genitals for an eternity while freezing in hades2.

Isn't that scary enough to convert?

Its totally as likely as a multi headed dragon eating someone again and again forever because they loved someone with the same gender.

There is no double standard. For the Christian, good is defined in terms of God. God is good, the only source of good and the only true judge of good and evil.

What makes something good or evil? whether or not it is line with God's will or not.

You are trying to set up a standard of good and evil outside of God and then apply that to God. That doesnt make any sense.

I also have one question for you. Whats the difference between defending your belief system and defending the truth?

Look, I understand that you have a desire to ridicule people with spiritual beliefs. That's great, I am not going to tell you no. ALl I ask is that you do it on a forum where that is allowed.

Its a spirituality forum btw, not a 2000 year old superstition forum... Spirituality is fine, I love that aspect of my life. Embracing the fallen nature of man as accounting for homosexuality while you own bible condones beating and owning slaves is as retarded as anything I've ever heard.

We're also talking about sea food and clothes made of more than one material being sinful. Sounds like the thought process of an uneducated person from a culture 2000 years old. :shrug:

Your bible is what I would expect satan himself to preach as a false prophet and the antithesis of Christ himself.

Please wake up.

My soul is more awake than it has ever been, thanks in part to the Bible.

It's not my fault if you are too stupid to separate the spiritual truth in the Bible, from the context of the ancient Jewish culture it came from.

Don't like the Bible? Don't believe it. But why bother me?  if you actually had a legit criticism of Christianity which I hadn't heard or thought of before, you might be able to peak my interest. but posting some old testament verse about homosexuality, or the moasic law as if that disproves the entire bible is insulting my intelligence. that is not how you debate with someone and certainly not how you arrive at truth.


If you "love spirituality" then why not post something about that? Tell me about your brand of spirituality, since its obviously so superior to Christian spirituality.

You and fivepointer are certainly of the same ilk.  God is right no matter what he does. And you are the interpreter.

Well carry on but I can't see anyone of any personal integrity and decency  wanting any. That kind of "spirituality" would never attract me and you can bank on that.

Anything not fundamentalist is superior to what is supposedly the word of god, but needs a modern context :datass:

Nothing wrong with connecting to something larger through meditation, exercise, dreaming, sex, prayer, fasting etc doesnt matter.

There is some larger bliss for people to connect to psychological or otherwise. To claim that I know a wizard wrote a book but did so in an inferior context or language... thats not god. Thats men with no teeth and huge jew dicks that wrote that, and you worship it, or at least the parts that you agree with...

Pure disappointment on the part of the human mind.

It's not my fault if you are too stupid to separate the spiritual truth in the Bible, from the context of the ancient Jewish culture it came from.

Don't like the Bible? Don't believe it. But why bother me?  if you actually had a legit criticism of Christianity which I hadn't heard or thought of before, you might be able to peak my interest. but posting some old testament verse about homosexuality, or the moasic law as if that disproves the entire bible is insulting my intelligence. that is not how you debate with someone and certainly not how you arrive at truth.


If you "love spirituality" then why not post something about that? Tell me about your brand of spirituality, since its obviously so superior to Christian spirituality.




Anything not fundamentalist is superior to what is supposedly the word of god, but needs a modern context :datass:

lol so theres nothing wrong with connecting to something larger through meditation, prayer, fasting, etc and yet it is wrong to use the Bible to help you make that connection? i would act surprised but this sort of absurd hypocrisy actually seems very common among humans.

of course, your approved methods are the only way someone can be spiritual. if someone wants to study the wisdom of an ancient culture  and learn about prayer and fasting that way, its wrong. wow.
