Christ's Case Before God
Christ's Case Before God
Christian faith is in their salvation by their redemption, and redemption is the forgiveness of their sins, and without sin there is life eternal, and ones redemption is only by ones belief in Christ as the Messiah, the Son of God, the only begotten of God, and being the one, only way to life eternal. Hence, belief is forgiveness is redemption is salvation, is eternal life.. As all who know earthly life will know bodily death, the death which Christ refers to can only be the death of ones spirit, and so Christs issue of law would only save life from spiritual death, but as Christs law condemns earthly life, joining his law forsakes earthly life. Christ was killed by the Jews because of the law he issued, for that law condemns all whom live their own lives on earth, and all material values, and it drives one into enslavement, and into the desire for bodily death/union with God in Heaven. (PassOver comes a few days before Christian Easter NOT by chance, but to drive the christ spirit/mystic away!) Christ accepted crucifiction to issue God's law, and if he would not accept crucifiction, that law would not have been issued, and Jesus would not have been the Christ, but would have kept his own life on earth. If Jesus did not accept to issue the law and take crucifiction, he would have disobeyed God, and he would then know spiritual death, but he would have kept his own earthly, bodily life, which ends in bodily death. Christ cannot say, that if he did not accept crucifiction he would then have done his own will (for to avoid his own bodily death) that when accepting crucifiction he was doing only God's will, and not his own will. (soto avoid his own spiritual death) Either way Jesus/Christ was going to die, but by serving God's will he would know eternal spiritual life. Is spiritual death not a greater suffering and loss than bodily death/crucifiction? (spiritual death as eternal, and if a suffering, an eternal suffering) The evil of the christian is their joining the law of the Christ to save only themselves, and the Christ's law condemns all humankind, but the christian themself is not affected by that law, and are exempt from the law and have no obligation to it, and only for themselves. The Christian proceeds to worship Christ as the uttermost goodness, but only for themselves, and to make themselves the utmost least good, and only for themselves, and so doing join to condemn all humankind altogether, and only for themselves, and do so soto flatter that Christ, but only for themselves, and the Christ savours their selfishness, for it serves it's case before God that humankind be utterly destroyed. The more christians there be, the stronger Christ's case be before God! (Without the law for love, there is no duty to love others, and there is only selfishness, and without sacrifice there is only selfishness, and without law and sacrifice there is utter selfishness, being why most christians are 'right-wing', and why so many neo-nazi's are christian.) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If one asks love for themself, they ask love from another, and they join the will for love for others. If one asks love from another, they ask for sacrifice, for without sacrifice there is only selfishness, and there is no love. They whom ask love for themself join the will for love for others and the will for sacrifice, and it needs be they too serve love for others and they too take-up sacrifice. Otherwise, they reject love for others and justify others to reject love also, and without the will and duty to love others, all that is law and all that is justice collapse, for only by that duty are we made and held accountable. Without the will for love, there is neither love for nor from others, but there is utter selfishness. And I say, all whom by their own good Heart freely join the purpose that we have life without harm, and they whom do so serve mercy and honesty and justice, and will deny themselves and the earth, that they are in those actions worthy to have life, and their will and actions are accounted for belief in God. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Read my essay Creation, Human Society, and Suffering at www.mts.net/~chs2000/chs.html : |

Not BC&H material. I'm moving it to GRD. You should get more responses there.
