900-928

"although people give the Absolute different names or make different pictures

of It in their minds it is only a dust on the surface ,of a much larger truth"

900 Summary

 

The back-land of the religions has not been seriously researched at all, as we know, due to it being declared a forbidden realm. But we will now learn, how the inner need for a contact with the Absolute, is the only worthwhile phenomenon of religious reality. And also that Jesus Christ came for all men equally, no matter what their religious or otherwise beliefs are. We then look at the following: New Age, divine entities, the God-is-dead movement and also the forces of good and evil. There follows a short story from the crucifixion of Christ. Warnings are sounded for Out-of-Body Experience- "journeys". We learn how to protect ourselves against black magic. The plan of the Absolute Beingness and the Law is somewhat defined. The difference between that of BEING or just having an existence is further defined. Then demonology is explained. A religious experience from basic existence is described. And finally we look into the general effects of man-made religious believe-systems on human existence.

 

 

 

901 Tradition

 

When we look at human existence, religious reality is certainly a large and inseparable part of that phenomenon. This part of reality encloses both the institutions we call religions, but not least our religious experiences and the need for divinity that touches each individual. What we experience in

this private way is absolutely independent of what religion we are born into or without. But the visions that we may often experience in this way are, on the other hand, more often than not, related to our accepted explanation by the religions, in the details . How else would we possibly understand them as such? Therefore they are all part of Gods´s Mercy independent of the religions involved. And alas, these two, the visions and organised religion, are totally separated matters. They do of course not constitute a proof that one religion is right and the next is wrong! - The religions already divided the paradigmal cake with other powers of the culture a long time ago. The two departments are the so-called secular and spiritual halves of existence. And both are happy with their part of the cake. The two power structures can in this way accept living with each other. But where there used to be only one cosmology or reality before we now have two. The two cannot easily be joined together into a single whole, so we just keep them divided. Obviously, this is the main agreement within the culture.
