Idealism of Faith

[ThomasJoseph]

Simple as you get, coving the facts that matter.
What is your faith?​

This is here so we can decide what to think about what is being said, since I have no relation to any of you.
AKA where your coming from when you try to make a valid opinion.

Joseph Thomas F.
God is, and is everything
Jesus IS our Saviour, and creator all blessed
Devil's are indeed thoughts and desires, as explained to the disciples.
The Earth is Eden, and the water came before land.
You are 100% responsible for your own choice.

I'll edit in more important details when they become relevant. But I gotta go eat my eggs.

Joseph Thomas F
The lord takes all credit
While Satan takes all blame.
hence we are forgiven.
But should you rebuke your saviour, how is he to save you.

If you, yourself, can not take and accept blame, but instead insist that satan should be taking the blame....why SHOULD you be forgiven for YOUR transgressions?

I've read the first section, and it is irrelevant since you still apply blame to something besides yourself.

 

[ThomasJoseph]

Satan is a concept. And it is responsible fro all ill effect and cause. You are 100% at fault for all your blames, But The Lord shares pity on your soul for the current state of affairs that renders you 'innocent' to the full extent of how that could be possible.

Now you're changing the goal posts again. Previous posts of yours showed that God showed no pity for the sinners but only retribution of the harshest metal. How about you take a break and try to put together something with a little more consistancy.

Live long and prosper. The purpose of life is to enjoy it and help others enjoy it in whatever way they want to. You can't do that to the best of your ability if you constantly fuss over sinning and whether you're going to hell or heaven.

 

[Cliffy]

Faith does not rely on a particular belief system. Faith can even come to someone who does not believe in gods or goddesses. Faith has more to do with a trust in life, that whatever forces that influence life are benevolent. After forty years of studying comparative religions and philosophies, I came to the simple conclusion that Anna has come to. Life is about being happy and spreading happiness. There is no such thing as sin, just bad choices. But even they are beneficial if we learn from them and take responsibility for them. That you believe in Jesus as your savior and devil as deceiver is dis-empowering. It takes away your personal responsibility toward life. Why would Jesus want to save someone who is too lazy to save themselves? Nobody is going to rescue us from the mess we have made. As the Hopi elder said "We are the people we have been waiting for."

Jesus isn't in Genesis. He doesn't even make an appearance until halfway through the book....

What is your faith?.

The cosmos is consistent and comprehensible (at least in principle, though we may not be smart enough to figure it all out) and there are no supernatural beings of any sort in it. Matter and its interactions are the fundamental reality, and that's all there is. No gods, no tooth fairies, no Easter Bunny, no Santa Claus, just matter and energy.
