God is always present. God was present before Christ came, during and after. You have to start thinking to yourself that Father Son and Holy Ghost are already present everywhere and you will live in the light after the dawn.

Try it out. If it doesn't work for you then you can get on a different med. It is ok to God to take care of your mental health.

Yea but God is his heart mind and soul. All of those things would be God if they are found in God. In Catholicism, Jesus presents his heart as a furnace of fire--that is an idea that has already been thought up, as God having a heart burning with the fire of his Love. With the mind is a halo...

John 14: 26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

God created everything and everything is a manifestation of his will. Creation proceeds from God so it is part of God. There is nothing created that is separate from him. He is the Beginning and the End.

You have senses including your mind and senses give you a perceptible reality. If you can sense a chair by seeing it and sitting in it then it must be real. If you can hear someone speak then the words they speak must be real through a perceptible reality. If you believe that the world is a...

What's wrong with this earth that there has to be a "new earth" on mars? Plus there is nothing in scripture that supports this claim. No other planet is named but earth. This is mere fantasy and not reality.

One can't simply live out of a book. The wisest men follow their own direction.

The part of the bible I like the best is when Jesus speaks about the Holy Ghost. How if Jesus goes away he will send him to us. And just basicly what he says about the Holy Ghost being the Spirit of Truth. I am SchizoAffective, so I have hallucinations. One of my hallucinations was of the Holy...

It means that one has discovered that the world is not a giving place. Like the corpse of an animal, the world is unto itself. An unforgiving place, a place where one does not prosper. A corpse has no life and neither does the world that is why it is likened to a corpse. To fall into the world...

From the gospel of Thomas: Jesus said, Whoever has known the world has fallen into a corpse and whoever has fallen into a corpse the world is not worthy of him! Not from your usual gospel but it is the way I feel most of the time, having fallen into the corpse that is the world. It makes me...

Immortality is not living forever. It is about the Spirit that you bear. The only Immortal that should concern us is Jesus Christ and the Spirit that he gives. The Gnostics believed in this--that if they bore the Spirit of Christ they would rise to Immortality becoming that Spirit and in turn...

Are you talking about the sacrifice, the crucifixion? But isn't it the word of God that gives life? It's not his flesh and blood but his Spirit which is given through his life. And the Word of God is the Spirit of Truth. It is the Spirit that lives not the flesh and blood. The sacrifice is in...

You do have to seek to find Jesus and that is an act of movement. Split a piece of wood is an act of seeking, pick up a stone is an act of seeking. The whole gospel of Thomas is about seeking. Whoever comes to find the interpretation of these sayings will not taste death.

This is so true and an excellent insight. I've often said the same thing about the interpretation of scripture. The farther away we get from the source, the more change in the meaning within the interpretation of the text. I think we have to keep this in mind when choosing a bible in our own...

It doesn't deny the trinity. The trinity is established within the text. Where there are three Gods they are divine. Where there is one ore two I exist with him. Whoever raises a word against the Father shall be forgiven. Whoever raises a word against the son shall be forgiven. But whoever...

Yea. Thanks. But we're just talking about one book, not many. Besides what is the recognized words of Jesus in the gospel of Thomas do you think it is possible that the gospel of Thomas is indeed the gospel of the disciple they called Thomas?

May I ask an example of a statement that you find to be clearly Gnostic in character? Clearly the Holy Trinity is established within the gospel of Thomas. I wasn't suggesting that the gospel of Thomas should be added to the canon. I was merely suggesting that it should not be viewed as such...

What about the Apocrypha. Protestant bibles have taken out the Apocrypha. Are those people in danger of the plagues found within revelation? The Roman Catholic bible includes the Apocrypha and they have been around long before the protestants. The gospel of Thomas is not Apocrypha. It is from...

The Roman Catholic Bible of today includes those same books. I have a copy/facimile of the original KJV. Those books are called the Apocrypha.
