My comment to JenJackson's video and my beliefs about ghosts and aliens

The 13 Articles of Faith which lay out the beliefs of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

Influenced by the great artist, Monica Sjoo, who as a lone voice in the years prior to 9/11 warned of the powerful patriarchal covert message and symbolism in the New Age beliefs, I wish to further explore   more...about this in these post 9/11 times...  less

My take on the text and the end time indicators. I tried to do this in a respectful way and hope to raise questions on the issue.

The text used is a direct opposite of the teaching of Paul because in his   more...theology he teaches that one should not be of the world but should be separate. And that the world is unclean. It is my opinion that Paul hijacked the teachings and sayings of Jesus and turned it into a belief system of his own ideas and theology.

"I mean, brothers and sisters,the appointed time has grown short; from now on, let even those who have wives be as though they had none, and those who mourn as though they were not mourning, and those who rejoice as though they were not rejoicing, and those who buy as though they had no possessions, and those who deal with the world as though they had no dealings with it. For the present form of this world is passing away. I want you to be free from anxieties. The unmarried man is anxious about the affairs of the Lord, how to please the Lord; but the married man is anxious about the affairs of the world, how to please his wife, and his interests are divided. And the unmarried woman and the virgin are anxious about the affairs of the Lord, so that they may be holy in body and spirit; but the married woman is anxious about the affairs of the world, how to please her husband. I say this for your own benefit, not to put any restraint upon you, but to promote good order and unhindered devotion to the Lord. If anyone thinks that he is not behaving properly toward his fiancee, if his passions are strong, and so it has to be, let him marry as he wishes; it is no sin. Let them marry. But if someone stands firm in his resolve, being under no necessity but having his own desire under control, and has determined in his own mind to keep her as his fiancee, he will do well."
(1Co 7:29-37 NRSV)

This technique of 'borrowing" is called "pesharim" it is also used in the Dead sea scrolls.

The texts of Maccabees tells of the resistance to the Greek Hellenization policies. Maccabees 4 the Greeks use torture devices.

The War scroll is a good Essen apocalyptic
document.

Also "The Teacher of righteousness" may have some relevance.

The Sermon on the mount spoke in apocalyptic and metaphoric terms of the global reversal of the current order.  less

Adapa and the food of life.

Mark:14 Mark is the earliest account in Epic form, where the sayings and works that circulated were possibly tied together. The other   more...Gospels seem to try to improve on Mark. The"q" source is possibly used in the other gospels and not in Mark.

Here is an awesome essay that had influence in my thinking on this topic.

Also the parable of the prodigal son may be relevant for when the son returns he is clothed and a ring is put on his finger.

As the essay related, the serpent in the garden may have tricked the humans into eating the tree of good and evil so they would not eat of the tree of life and live forever, which as Genesis relates the heavenly council was worried about.

Then the Lord God said, "See, the man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil; and now, he might reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever"— therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken.
(Gen 3:22-23 NRSV)

Christ was also semi divine even though he was divine he still had to face death. Even after he returns from the underworld he is clothed in heavenly garb.

Also may have relevance to a different way of viewing communion and why it has become such an important ritual.


Sorry if I pronounced some of the names wrong. The ancient Near East gods at times had complex names. Take care!  less

"Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge?' Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand, things too wonderful for me, which I did not know.
(Job 42:3)

Christians - I know its asking a bit much of you, but can you step back and take an objective look at your beliefs?

This is "Part Four" in a series of various philosophical things I've heard on TV or radio, or read in novels, or in poems, or in letters and emails friends have written to me, or even seen as   more...graffiti on urban city walls over the years, so I wanted to share some of the thoughts with you.

The photos in the video are ones I took recently from my hotel room in Las Vegas overlooking "The Strip". The pictures show the Excalibur Casino and Hotel at various times during the day.

The song in the video is "Secret of Life" by Faith Hill.  less

Is this your life philosophy? Send me a lot of video responses and tell me what you think and feel.
