There are two distinctly different realities
Two states of being
Either, one is of this world
Or one is not
There is no other option
We are born into the system and here we stay until we die, unless we choose to leave it.
We belong to it
To leave is NEVER an easy decision
The system provides us with everything we need.
There are a few who have chosen to try and leave it physically in their own strength, but this is futile.
Only so much could be achieved this way, it's not the answer.
There are many who rage and rant about the evils of the world while still claiming its benefits. ( I am guilty of this myself)
There are some who claim it can be done on a more spiritual level by just believing that god/ the universe, will provide.
This is also nonsense and the ones claiming it are reaping the rewards from their luxury homes with their luxury cars, swimming pools, designer suits etc and paying for it all with their credit cards. They've achieved large bank balances by convincing gullible people to give everything they have away and walk off into the world with only the clothes in their backs.
How many stories have I heard of people leaving everything, walking off to the desert and having some sort of spiritual " awakening"?
Only to return and become extremely wealthy by telling this story.
If these stories were true, they wouldn't have returned.
They certainly wouldn't be sitting in their big houses telling everyone else how to live their lives.
There is a lot of truth in what these people say though.
People's spirits recognise truth, so it's much easier to deceive when most of what's being said is truth.
Everyone's perception of the world is extremely skewed
The biggest questions is " what is the meaning of life?"
Is it to have a " purpose?"
A job ?
A wife/husband?
Children ?
To love?
Achieve wealth?
Notoriety?
To be happy?
What is happiness?
Self gratification?
Feeling loved?
Is anyone truly loved by others?
We're born, we do stuff, we die
You made a name for yourself?
So what?
You're dead
You achieved great wealth?
What for?
The wealthiest people who ever lived are penniless the moment they breathe their last.
What does it matter, who likes you, who doesn't, who thinks you're a " good" person?
WHY does it matter???
It only matters because it bolsters your own delusions, helps you believe you're a " good" person if others do
We're all just passing through
It's only a very short stay
Your arrogance, self righteousness, beliefs, opinions and the like will be meaningless in the end
We hold on to these things, somehow believing it's our identity
Who are you?
What do you like?
What sort of music do you listen to?
What do you like to wear?
What's your favourite food?
Colour?
Do you like to read?
Are you a film buff?
Can you sing?
Dance?
Do these things make up who you are?
Is this your identity?
We LOVE taking quizzes and reading about our personality based on our astrological signs etc
We're so self obsessed and desperate to feel important in some way
These things don't make up who we really are
We don't know who we are
But if we stopped doing this, it would surely send us insane or thrust one into the depths of depression
It's very important for one to have a sense of identity
But it's a false sense of identity, a programme based on all the different things ones chosen to pick up along the way for whatever reason.
Insanity?
I say " bring it on"
Thrust me into the depths of depression
Surely it's better than the alternative
If that's what it takes to wake me up and stop believing that any of this is real, then I would welcome it with every fibre of my being.
To be purified by fire
There is NO other way
Everything we subscribe to is of the world
There's no escape from it
Adopting a set of beliefs isn't going to change anything
It's laughable in the extreme
One HAS to go through the refiners fire to be purified
You can't escape this
" I believe in God" " la de dah, everything's great"
Until things don't work out the way YOU think they should.
Shake your fist at him
He's your servant, not the other way round after all
You've been a good boy/ girl
He should reward you
He should give you everything you ask for
You can plan a life in your head, then ask him to make it happen
I want to marry this woman/ man/ get this job/ live in this house/ pay my debts etc etc etc
That's how it works right?
Then when it doesn't happen?
Get angry?
Stop believing?
Wonder what you've done wrong?
Pray for more " faith?"
John 14:13
And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
Until you've been purified by fire, this doesn't apply!
Until the spirit of truth is seated upon the throne of your heart, you have NO right to ask for ANYTHING other than for him to open your eyes and shine a light on the evil creature within who would DARE to dictate his evil desires to Yahweh.
The utter arrogance and stupidity!
He is the creator of the universe and everything in it, including you!
Humble thyself!!!
Fall to your knees and worship at his feet!
NOW!!
Before it's too late
Let go!
Be willing to submit to HIS will
Not your own, evil, wilful nature
LET GO of what you " want"
No matter how painful
In fact it MUST be painful
No pain
No gain
You MUST be willing to be all alone in the world, no money, no home, no love, no family, no possessions
Until you can TRULY let go of all these things, you will continue going round and round on the spiral deluding yourself
Searching but never finding the answer
Love is the answer
But first you have to know what real love is
You may think you know
It's not possible
It's something very few have ever experienced
If there is anything you can't let go of, that is your god
And until you realise this, you will never get anywhere
Fear is of the devil
Perfect love casts out all fear
What is it you fear?
Being alone?
I fear being alone, it's painful
But I'd rather be alone than stuck on the spiral
Compromising myself for another person, just so I'm not alone in the world.
What's the point?
It's futile
Give it up
The irony is that all will be given once you've let go
But you can't do it for that reason obviously because that would mean you hadn't let go at all
My brain hurts 😱
NOBODY can fix you!
Perhaps they could be a bandaid for a while, but nothing more.
Self gratification
Desperately trying to stop the pain
Trying to connect
It will all end in tears and then the pain will be worse than ever.
More damage, more mistrust, more self loathing, more feelings of unworthiness.
You're just digging a big black hole for yourself by clinging on to these fantasies.
Two demonically driven people trying to be joined together in holy Union
It's an unholy Union, there's no two ways about it
The only way this could work is if both parties were completely in truth
Give it up!
Submit to HIS will
Stop being self serving while deluding yourself you have pure desires
You CANNOT serve Yahweh while you cling on to these delusions
Nothing is a sin in itself, but the desire for it is
It's certainly not sinful to be married, but the desire to, is. ( I could greatly expand on this as with most things)
No matter how much you try to justify, it's putting your will before Yahweh's
Is that his will for you?
Do you know this for a fact?
If you don't, then you're not in his will
You're not living in truth and all your beliefs are just head knowledge, dead beliefs that mean absolutely nothing and will get you absolutely nowhere
Having knowledge of the truth without acting on it Is a very dangerous thing to do
You can no longer plead ignorance
You either choose to stop deluding yourself and do what's right or be damned
It's your choice
