I think there are demons though, look at hillary and obama for example

People can have the freedom to choose which they call themselves, and I think if they’re truly on a path to try to enlighten , they’ll learn about different ones if they can

Lol

it's tribalism in my opinion

i'm a dirty outsider on the outskirts of the world. in the world but not of it, really.

I'm just here because Jesse showed me the light, and so I wanted to try to help him help more people.

That’s nice 🙂

(by 'here' i mean this Discord server and https://www.youtube.com/user/bondinfo

I think that the West is the Best and I'm not ready to go digging for archaeology in India like it's some utopia.

@Deleted User The Bhagavad-Gita was written by a man from the lowest caste in India, probably around 500 BC. There's no mumbo jumbo in their, nothing in there is going to change your trajectory to be one with YHVH. But if you read that short volume, it will make you feel much better about your Brother.

I promise

it was written before Yeshua Ha-Mashiach was born, so it cannot possibly contradict the New Testament.

I'm sorry, I had to step away because I had to get back to work and I was getting flustered at the same time. I had to cool off knowing that I was tripping over here.

@J_G_ At the end of the day, if someone wants to study whatever they want, fine by me. I can ask a question or two but I am not going to force them to do what they don't want to do. I get enough people who get angry at me for just simply asking the question.

I believe in the Bible, God, and His Son Jesus.

And the Holy Spirit that dwells within me.

People believe in multiple representations and I just keep it simple. Jesse may hold similar values to other religions, but at the end of the day, he quoted the Bible.

I worry about myself and how I must live my life daily.

I have lived it wrong for so many years and paid a price. But now that I am in a better state of mind, that is all that matters.

It’s not right for them to get angry about it

I didn't get angry by the way

@J_G_ Oh no, I didn't say you were. I mean't other people I have talked to outside of Discord for the last couple of years.

My apologies if it seemed that way. I probably should have worded it better.

It's ok, I didn't know for sure, just wanted to clarify.

@J_G_ Diabolical mimicry

Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
2 Corinthians 6:14‭-‬16 KJV

Bhagavad-Gita must be diabolical, since it offers three easy directions to get to hell, it says to use lust, anger and greed.

it even talks about Democrats:

"Chapter 16, Verse 18

Bewildered by false ego, strength, pride, lust and anger, the demon becomes envious of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is situated in his own body and in the bodies of others, and blasphemes against the real religion."

"Chapter 16, Verse 21
There are three gates leading to this hell-lust, anger, and greed. Every sane man should give these up, for they lead to the degradation of the soul."

"Chapter 16, Verse 24
One should understand what is duty and what is not duty by the regulations of the scriptures. Knowing such rules and regulations, one should act so that he may gradually be elevated."

by the way, the only religious service I attend is JLP's

but I have learned that nobody has the monopoly on the Truth. the Truth rather has a monopoly on us.

It all sounds like someone's summarization of the Bible.

If the Bible writes about truth and somebody else writes about truth they might seem similar.

By my estimation that's how you know what they writing about is consistent. But the Bible and every other holy text came from the heart. Those texts are just words on a page. The most important thing to me is the meaning not the authenticity of a document. People get all tripped up on material things but spirituality deals with the non material things. Material things crumble. And be destroyed. The spirit is immortal and cannot be destroyed.

You’re so on point <:GWchiakiKannaWave:369468313157369858>

The Bible was written light years before most other religions. So does it come from the heart when a text in a page saying to kill all infidels?

It pleases me that you continue to remember and honor me by keeping up the traditions of the faith I taught you. All actual authority stems from Christ.
