“Love your enemies. Do Good and Give expecting nothing in return. Your reward will be great and you will become Children of the Most High; for He is kind to both the ungrateful and the sinful. Be merciful, therefore, just as your Father is merciful.” ~ Jesus (Luke 6:35-36) Here are two notes of […]
“God is Light and in Him there is no darkness …” ~ Paul (1 Corinthians 10:13) It is tempting for many to claim or believe that life’s trials & turmoils are signs of God testing our resolve — or even God punishing our transgressions, and yet this simply cannot be the case; at least […]
“Very truly, I tell you, the one who truly Believes in me will also Do the Works that I Do — and in fact, will Do even greater Works than these.” ~ Jesus (John 14:12) This is actually an extremely important biblical verse, in that it reminds us all – Christians & non-Christians alike […]
If you want to remain in Hell, it’s pretty easy to do – just keep on hoarding things — and keep on seeking superficial pleasures — and keep on justifying your excesses — and keep on denigrating or ignoring the poor in your midst. If you want to enter life, it’s not that much more […]
What if this particular poem was legit? What if this particular “What if” was real? Well — IT IS … Our life IS our religion; our religious practice IS how we interact with each other; the Earth IS our holiest temple; knowing our True Self IS knowing our greatest Wisdom; and our holiest water IS […]

“Now is the acceptable time … See, now is (always) the moment of Salvation!” ~ Paul (2 Corinthians 6:2) While it is clear from reading the works of Paul that he indeed believed that Salvation was a singular event of divine intervention – that he indeed believed that the time was nigh during his […]
It is indeed high time for us ALL to aspire to something more than mere “wealth” or “fun” or “power” or “redemption”. It is time for us ALL to change our perception of what it means to live “the good life”. It is time for us ALL to alter our definitions of “happiness” & “pleasure” […]
“Walk while you have the Light … If you walk in the Darkness, you do not know where you are going. While you have the Light, actualize the Light, so that you may become Children of the Light.” ~ Jesus (John 12:35-36) If the embedded Wisdom of this verse is to ever be fully […]
“By the tender mercy of our God, the dawn from on high has broken upon us, to give Light to those who sit in Darkness and in the shadow of death; to guide our feet onto the Way of Peace.” ~ Luke (Luke 1:78-79) This passage is the conclusion of the prophecy Zechariah uttered […]
To get to Heaven, Jesus made it clear that we must “Love our neighbor” (Matthew 22:36-40, Mark 12:30-31 & Luke 10:27) … For most Christians the wording of this commandment is well-known, and yet what many folks do NOT understand is just what Jesus meant by them. For Jesus, “the Kingdom of Heaven” was NOT […]
