And Who knows all the truth and all the lies and how far one can go, deluded, without ever removing the moat from one's own eye. PD NEVER accused all of Christendom of evil, but there is certainly evil there. Without evil, we would have no understanding of what is good and righteous or how dearly beloved of G-d we are to be given such a gift of understanding.
In you, and in the things you have said, I see denial of truth. Denial of truth is a lie. And the lie will consume you if you let it.
So let me explain this. There are Christians and Jews who call themselves Christians and Jews who believe in nothing while swearing otherwise. By doing this, even if you murder thousands or only one in the Lord's Name, believing in nothing, it matters not. If you murder in your OWN name, one or one thousand, believing nothing, it matters not. You murder your own soul and with that goes all hope. You have died inside yourself and nothing you can ever do will return that which you willingly allowed to depart. There is no eternity for a dead soul. It is sudden and empty death. REAL death and you go to it with no hope of redemption.
The LAW is such that almost any other sin you commit, excluding ONLY murder, can be forgiven. For this to be so, you must ask your victim for forgiveness and mean it. If you are NOT forgiven, even if you ask, then the punishment for one who can't forgive is misery for the one who has to carry hatred around until it finally subsides. With this comes profound sadness because it is healing to forgive. For some, it takes longer than others. Though YOU will bear the burden of guilt, you ARE forgiven. As in go and sin no more.
The whole LAW is that you MUST ask the receiver of your transgresssion. You cannot ask someone you have murdered for forgiveness. You cannot ask the families of those you murdered for forgiveness. No one can forgive you. Therefore, you are never forgiven even if you live a hundred more years and pray 24 hours a day. There is NO forgiveness for murder.
Living in a lie will not murder your soul, but it will make you weak. It will allow you to stand by while others murder in YOUR name, and when THAT happens, you have just as surely murdered as if it had been by your own hand.
All that is on this page is the truth. If you prefer the lie, then you believe in nothing.
All of that must be a bit of a worry for you, eh?
You should probably write a book about it, too.
In the meanwhile, though, I will stay with The Book I have.
The one my Father gave me.
A'Dios
