Faith, Belief and Forgiveness

Faith and belief are the most powerful gifts our creator has given us, and yet these gifts give us no power over our brothers and sisters, they only empower us in our own existence. We chose what we believe and have faith in, and our choices determine the lives we live. Chose to believe something that is not true and your life will be a life of lessons showing the truth you don't believe. Believe in something that is true to the core and you life will be one where you will anticipate your path, because it is consistent with the truth you believe.

I find it ironic and sad that so many of us believe in religious dogma that says we are different than each other. God created us all equal, and he didn't create us to hurt or kill each other.

Religions and beliefs that say that men are different are not something to put faith in, they are not true, if God created us all equal. This is especially ironic for Christians, they have chosen Christ as their path to God, but Christ, the son of God, was also a Saint of Forgiveness, and taught lessons of not judging our brothers, and that forgiveness of our brothers and ourselves was the path to God. These lessons are lost in trying to teach your brother, if you do not know them your self. These lessons are gifts form God, to Christ, to you. They are meant for you personally. If you do not care to know what they mean to you personally, you have no business telling your brother what they mean to him. Your brother has his own path to God, and God did not put you in between your brother and God, and you don't belong there. Judging any brother is trying place yourself between them and God, God will not let that happen, but when your brother believes you belong there, you have helped your brother believe what is not true, that you can do what God didn't give you to do, Judge your brother, and you share in a belief that is untrue, that your brother can be judged by you.

If you are Christian you should follow the path and lessons Jesus gave you. You should strive to understand what those gifts mean to you personally, and how they direct your behavior with your brother. For only if you learn from God's gifts through Jesus will you find your true relationship with God. If you are of Christian faith and you want a true relationship with God, you must learn not to judge your brothers, and then learn not to judge yourself. For the Christian path to God is forgiveness.
