Second Take on Original Sin #53

Roman Catholics are taught that everyone is born with original sin. Sin from the 'Greek' means mistake. So what was our original mistake. Our mind had a choice between body, and spirit. A choice between right mind, and ego mind. Right mind is spirit, and ego mind created matter, and physicality, and the universe.

As we are in body, and taught Christianity teaches of the trinity of 'Father, Son, and Holy Spirit' what does this mean? Is this what is the 'Meaning of Life'? What are we to discover about ourselves? Is it a human having a spiritual experience, or are we spirit having a human experience?

It is really the experience of the 'Father and I are One' meaning Father (Creator), Son (Created), and Wholly Spirit. There is no separation from god for anyone, we are all part of Holy Spirit.

So the non sense is the body, and its ego mind, and the common sense is the spirit, and its right mind. How much simpler can we get? The way to to return to the Holy Spirit is through forgiveness, and forgiving ourselves for forgetting, or not remembering who we were.

Why Fear God? #52

Why do you fear god? Because you were taught so from the pulpit about the fire and brimstone, and read of the coming times of revelations! Well all the gospels say the kingdom of god is within should give you a clue. So who is found in the kingdom of god is a no brainer question. So the answer is God! So this means that Christians fear themselves, and those around them.

So what does the phrase mean 'the father and I are one', so creator, and created are one? Does this mean by fearing god you are separating yourself from god (as each are part of god), and therefore will not be able to enter the kingdom of god.

We have to join with Holy (Wholly) Spirit, be in communion with god, realizing that we are all brothers, and sister, all one all having a part of god within us. So there is only one ego mind (outer kingdom, and state of non sense), and one right mind as taught in A Course in Miracles, (in the inner kingdom, and state of common sense).

How do we stop fearing god, ourselves, and others? The tool is forgiveness as taught in A Course in Miracles. That is not all the story but that is a start, we have to forgive ourselves for the separation from Holy Spirit, and God, and as there is only one right mind, so there is only one god, but going by many different names.
