Have you ever felt that local and world religions have a propensity to ignore the fact that it is easy to have or allow half-truth, and lies:

 

 

TO CREEP INTO THEIR PERSONAL FAITH    

 (1) I have been taught that we are all made in the Spiritual Image of God (Genesis 1:27). The image of God that we are can’t be destroyed, and we will ALL BE in the new Heaven and Earth, changed and PERFECT FOREVER (and our sinful nature is quarantined in Hell. God has already saved everyone who has ever been conceived in a mother’s womb (no good thoughts or works save us).

 

(2) I have a “Free Will” (1 Corinthians 10:13) to think good or bad thoughts, and a “Free Will” to do good or bad actions. Thinking good thoughts and doing good actions (Ephesians 2:8-9) CAN NEVER SAVE ME. When I think and act MORE righteous, I am blessed to be able to embrace living the ABUNDANT LIFE that our Creator wants us to experience in this sinful world of trials and tribulations.

 

(3) I have a body that contains the Spirit of God as His child, and a new name given to me before the foundations of the WORLD. Ephesians 1:3-6 Emmanuel (meaning God with us) no longer has His Spirit in the body of Jesus (Jesus isn’t Deity, his body is a temple or tabernacle that is HOUSING DEITY, the flesh and blood body is created by the marriage of Joseph and Mary) For Jesus is like me in every way (Hebrews 2:17 AMP). Which means that Jesus had a normal conception, birth, childhood, teen, and adult experiences (working, marriage, and being a parent) and experienced DEATH; just like other men. Emmanuel is no longer in the body of Jesus (Flesh and blood can’t enter the Kingdom of God, 1 Corinthians 15:50 NKJV. God’s Spirit is probably in the same perfect body that Adam and Eve had, before they sinned (God restoring perfection in a new Heaven and Earth).

 

Pagans believe their gods were VENGEFUL and wanted to harm us for doing wrong. My God is ALL LOVING and able to clean up His baby children and not throw His children out with the proverbial bath water. People of faith should not think that our God has human LIMITATIONS and is powerless to separate us from our sins (and doing it, without injuring us in the process.

 

“Every knee shall bow and …..confess. ” I believe refers to EVERYONE made in the image of God. All humans will be like Mr. Legion, who had 6,000 demons in his spirit, and after Emmanuel healed him, he was clothed and in his right mind. After the resurrection of the dead, we humans will be cleansed, and our sins will be separated from us FOREVER (Psalm 103:12).

 

If a teenage son severely harms his sister, and his father says if you don’t tell your sister YOU ARE SORRY, I will beat you severely. If he apologized to her and didn’t mean it, the father is causing his son to be GUILTY of lying. God has no reason to make our sinfulness lie to God (since our sins can’t REPENT, for it isn’t made in the image of God.

 

If anyone is in hell and I ask God if I can talk to my neighbor who is now in Hell, and I ask him, “You were told on earth that God has an everlasting LOVE FOR YOU, do you believe God still loves you, and he will say HELL NOW, pun intended LOL

 

I will call my viewpoints “Spiritual Logic 101” LOL. In the new Heaven and Earth, we will know all Spiritual TRUTHS. 1 Corinthians 13:12 NLT “Now we see things imperfectly …. but then we will see everything with perfect clarity ….

 

Don’t feel ashamed or disheartened that we are mostly guessing at “What is Truth” in our earthly pilgrimage.

 

Sincerely,

Arthur Trafford
