"What is TRUTH?"

Someone had commented, "Truth is subjective. You have drank the Kool-Aid as a Christian (there were 'christians' who drank poisoned kool-aid because their crazed leader jim jones told them to do so), so of course you will see truth through the lens of your Christian beliefs. I am fine with that. Where I say Christians cross the line is when they try to make me drink the Kool-Aid. Not saying that is what you are doing... but just a general gripe I have about Christians.

And i responded(with further testimony added):

How is it that you believe i am a pagan "christian"?

You must be blind not only Spiritually, but naturally as well for your own words prove you have "eyes, yet see not, and ears, yet you hear not"! (Jeremiah 5:21, Matthew 13:15-16)
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/09/hear-now-this-oh-foolish-people-and.html

Each And Every 'biblical' Translation IS Biased And Perverted!

The Messiah testified, "The Words I speak unto you, they are SPIRIT and they are Life"! And "The Words I speak unto you, I speak not of Myself, but The FATHER WHO dwells within Me, HE Does The Work"! (John 6:63; 14:10b) http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/10/the-messiah-testified-i-can-do-nothing.html

And TRUTH IS! "A natural man can not comprehend that which is of The SPIRIT that IS Our FATHER and GOD, for such is foolishness unto him; and neither can he know that which is of Our FATHER, for that which is of HIS SPIRIT needs be Spiritually discerned"....... (I Corinthians 2:14)
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/08/natural-life-is-but-shadow-of-life.html

And Spiritual discernment reveals that each and every translation, of that which those of this world and/or religion's way(except it be The Active Faith as revealed in James 1:27) call their 'bible', is biased and perverted in accordance with the religious dogma and/or worldly views of the translator(s)! (James 1:18)

http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2008/10/pure-and-undefiled-religion.html

"The Greatest of these is Love!" (I Corinthians 13:13)

Sadly, this world's version of 'love' is of the flesh and the natural fleshly mind! Such a 'love' is void of "The SPIRIT and TRUTH" that rightly declares such 'love' to be but lust; or a word used and abused as a soul seeks their own way and/or will!
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/12/a-vision-of-submission-and-love.html

So it is worldly 'married' wo-men continually cry out "you don't love me!", "you don't love me!", as they evermore seek to 'man'ipulate, dominate and rule over their "head", a man....... (I Corinthians 11:3)
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2010/07/women-rule-and-children-oppress-is-312.html
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/05/kids-everywhere-where-have-all-children.html

And there are multitudes who seek to prove their version of "love" by using and abusing portions of that which should rightly be called pagan catholic canon(aka: the new testament). Such are those who have been "given over to a reprobate mind" because they have chosen to have their portion with the perverse lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and trans-sexual ways! (Romans 1:26-28)
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/12/catholic-canon-that-which-they-call-new.html
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/07/god-gave-them-up-unto-uncleanness.html

Yet Thankfully, "Now abides Faith, Hope and Love, but the greatest of THESE is Love"! 
(I Corinthians 13:13)

The Messiah testified, "I can do nothing of My own self"! (John 5:19,30; 8:28-29; 7:16; 9:4; 12:49-50; 14:10,23-24; 17:8,14)

Someone had written, "When I saw the prayer "God grant me the serenity to accept the people i can not change, the courage to change the one i can, and the wisdom to know it's me", I thought of you."

Sadly, but a variation of a typical pagan catholic and christian prayer coined by those who have been braindirtyed to the utmost! So it is they live and believe in The LIES that are of this world and/or religion's way in this day and age! (James 1:27)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/10/love-not-world.html

http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2008/10/religion-is-way-of-this-wicked-world.html

TRUTH IS! A soul needs REALize The TRUTH that The Messiah bore witness of when He testified, "i can do nothing of my own self"! (II Thessalonians 2:10-13, John 5:19,30; 8:28-29; 7:16; 9:4; 12:49-50; 14:10,23-24; 17:8,14)

http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2009/05/i-must-die.html

Can His brethren do anything more?

The Messiah, "A Servant of, and sent by, The Only True GOD"!

TRUTH IS! The ONE and ONLY TRUE GOD and FATHER(CREATOR) of ALL, WAS, IS, and Always Will Be SPIRIT! (John 4:24; 17:3; 20:17)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/02/god-is-spirit-is-creator-is-life-is-all.html
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/08/the-messiah-testified-spirit-has-not.html

And it was as Paul testified, "GOD(SPIRIT) was IN The Messiah seeking to reconcile the world unto HIMself(Our FATHER and GOD)"! (II Corinthians 5:19)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/10/immanuel-messiah.html

Not that GOD(SPIRIT) took upon HIMself "human" flesh, but that The HOLY, Set Apart, SPIRIT that IS "Our FATHER and GOD" entered into The Messiah, He Who was "born in the likeness of sinful flesh"! (II Corinthians 5:19, John 20:17; 4:24, Romans 8:3)  
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/09/our-father-and-god-john-2017.html

Simply, if The Messiah was "GOD", there would have been no need For The SPIRIT That IS "Our FATHER and GOD" to enter into Him(The Messiah)! (John 20:17, Luke 24:39, II Corinthians 5:19)

The Pagan Catholic and Christian "CHRIST-MASS" CRAZE!

TRUTH IS!  And is always "in season".......

And pagan catholicism, christianity, and christ-mass(a capitalistic holyday), are a trinity indeed!
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/08/catholicism-christianity-and.html

And liken unto the three headed pagan catholic god(s), wholly unholy!

Yet sadly, the multitudes of worldly and/or religious souls love The LIE that is the "imag"ined pagan catholic and christian "christ-mass" craze, as well as a myriad of other pagan catholic and christian holydays, fairy-tales, folklore, traditions and doctrinal heresies! Sadly, such is the way of this evil world and/or religion(except it be The Active Faith as revealed in James 1:27) in this day and age! (Galatians 4:9-11, John 7:7; 8:44, I John 2:15-17; 5:19, James 1:27; 4:4)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/11/christianity-is-anti-messiah.html

http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2012/10/taking-bait-and-lies-are-swallowed-hook.html

Thankfully "Faith Wins The Victory", not religion!

And The TRUTH always bears repeating.......

"Faith Wins The Victory", not religion! (I John 5:4)
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/07/thankfully-faith-wins-victory-i-john-54.html

However, 'religion' was, and is yet needful for the natural man! Those "disobedient and gainsaying (contradicting and opposing GOD) people", who are "stiff-necked and uncircumcised of heart and ears"! Those souls who would rather have a man (Moses/Prophets) than "Our FATHER and GOD" speak to them, and would rather have a man (Saul/Kings) than Our FATHER and GOD rule over them!  (Romans 10:21, Acts 7:51, Exodus 20:19, l Samuel 8:4-21)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/08/why-religion-was-and-is-yet-needful-for.html

And Yes! Atheism is a religion as well, for atheists see their version of a god each and every time they view their reflected "image"!  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2012/03/atheists-so-called-are-some-of-most.html

Eternal Life -OR- Eternal Damnation?

Someone had testified, "There is no 'heavenly award' waiting at death, nor is there 'fiery hell' in punishment for the wicked; dead is dead. With that in mind, I can appreciate why there would be a resurrection catering to the righteous. They would be able to finally enjoy their promised reward. However, if a resurrection to condemnation/damnation is what lies in store for the wicked, What's the point? Such a resurrection seems cruel to me. The wicked dead are gone, why bring them back?

And i responded:  Spoken like a true atheist, or someone bound in the chains of "strong delusion" that is religion's way! Simply another lost soul who has never "received a love of The TRUTH"! So it is atheists see their version of a god("I",ego,id,self,pride) each and every time they view their reflected "image"! (II Thessalonians 2:10-13, James 1:27)

http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2008/10/pure-and-undefiled-religion.html

The Messiah testified, "Touch Me and see, for A SPIRIT does not have flesh and bones as you see I have"! (Luke 24:39)

And TRUTH IS! The Messiah also testified, "GOD IS A SPIRIT and they that worship HIM must worship HIM in Spirit and TRUTH"! (John 4:24)
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/02/god-is-spirit-is-creator-is-life-is-all.html

http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/08/the-messiah-testified-spirit-has-not.html

And it was as Paul testified, "GOD(HE WHO IS SPIRIT) was IN The Messiah reconciling the world unto HIMself (GOD)"! (II Corinthians 5:19)

Not that GOD(SPIRIT) took upon HIMself "the likeness of sinful flesh", but that GOD, HE WHO IS SPIRIT, entered into The Messiah who was "born in the likeness of sinful flesh"....... (Romans 8:3)

TRUTH IS! If The Messiah(The Son of GOD) was "The Only True GOD", there would have been no need for The SPIRIT that IS GOD to enter into Him! (John 17:3, II Corinthians 5:19, Ephesians 4:6)    
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2009/08/who-is-lord-g-d-almighty.html

"catholic canon"... That which is called The New Testament!

First it needs be REALized that "the god of this world" and religion's way (except it be The Active Faith as revealed in James 1:27) in this day and age IS "the father of lies"! And that The Faithful brethren (naturally male or 'fe'male) of The Messiah ARE Family; "The Family of Our FATHER and GOD", which IS "both In Heaven and ON EARTH"! (II Corinthians 4:4, James 1:27: 4:4, John 8:44, Ephesians 3:15, Galatians 6:10)

http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2011/07/family-of-faith-or-system-of-religion.html

So what of pagan "catholic canon(authorized by the pope)"?

Which includes that which those of this evil world and/or religion's way(except it be The Active Faith as revealed in James 1:27) call "The New Testament"(in what is declared to be the 'holy bible', yet IS rightly called "The Word of TRUTH" when "Spiritually Discerned")"! (James 1:18, I Corinthians 2:14)
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/10/all-so-called-biblical-translations-are.html
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/12/catholic-canon-that-which-they-call-new.html

Sadly, there are multitudes who are unaware of The TRUTH that testifies, "The New Testament was, and IS, but pagan "catholic canon (authorized by the pope)"!
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/11/concerning-new-testament-which-is-but.html

Immanuel {for The SPIRIT of GOD was IN Him} The Messiah!

Thankfully "Our FATHER and GOD (HE WHO IS SPIRIT) was IN Immanuel The Messiah, seeking to reconcile the world unto HIMself(and The Holy, Set Apart, SPIRIT of Our FATHER IS also IN the "Born Again" brethren {naturally male or 'fe'male} of The Messiah)"! (II Corinthians 5:19, Matthew 1:23, John 3:3,7, I Peter 1:23)

http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/10/a-born-again-experience_15.html

And TRUTH IS! Joshua(The Messiah's name translated into modern english from the greek word "Ιησούς") was The GOD given Hebrew birth name of The Messiah(the pagan catholic and christian 'jesus' is of the pagan latin 'iesus') in today's english. And He IS "The Only Begotten Son of Our FATHER and GOD", both Spiritually as "The Word of GOD" spoken into being as "The Light" of Genesis 1:3, and physically "in the likeness of sinful flesh" destined to be "The Anointed One(The Messiah)"! (John 3:16, Romans 8:3)

http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2012/08/the-word-of-god-let-there-be-light.html

And The NEW Covenant Joshua (who leads The Way to The Heavenly Promised Land) WAS Anointed as Immanuel (The Name above every name) The Promised Messiah, when The Fullness of The SPIRIT that IS Our FATHER and GOD entered into Him as He was immersed by John in the Jordan river! (Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:23, Philippians 2:9,  John 1:29-34)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/11/the-new-covenant-and-new-covenant-jew.html

"The WHOLE WORLD (not just a portion) is under the control of the evil one"! (I John 5:19)

Someone had written, "The nations whose population mainly worship other gods, so that nearly the entire population is devil led, those are nations we might call "evil"!  

And i responded(with further testimony and modifications): 

Sadly, your own words prove that you have never experienced The Miracle that is receiving "a love of The TRUTH so that you might be saved" from your own self ("I", ego, id, pride) life! And your own words also prove that the lies that are of "the god of this evil world(he who is "the father of lies")", and/or religion's way(except The Active Faith as revealed in James 1:27) in this day and age, have bound you in the chains of "strong delusion"! (II Thessalonians 2:10-13, II Corinthians 4:4, John 7:7; 8:44, I John 2:15-17; 5:19, James 4:4; 1:27, Ephesians 3:15, Galatians 6:10)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/10/they-received-not-love-of-truth-that.html

http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/10/religions-way-is-anti-messiah.html

So it is you have your portion with those who call "evil good, and good evil"! (Isaiah 5:20)
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2010/11/oh-games-people-play.html

"Religion" was, and IS yet needful for "disobedient and gain-saying(contradicting and opposing GOD) people", who would "rather have a man than GOD speak to and rule over them"!

(Romans 10:21, Acts 7:51, Exodus 20:19, I Samuel 8:4-22)

http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/08/why-religion-was-and-is-yet-needful-for.html

And history has revealed, and continues to reveal, that multiplied BILLIONS have been killed or en-slaved(in physical chains at times, yet primarily in the chains of strong delusion that are the commandments and doctrines of men) in the name of the god(s) of this, or that religion! (II Thessalonians 2:10-13)

Proving the fruit of death and enslavement are bore of religion's way, 
for life is but a pawn in the wicked game they play!

http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/10/because-of-religions-way-way-of-truth.html

Come out from among them and be separate!" (II Corinthians 6:17)

"A simple and Spiritual Life"

i believe a simple and Spiritual Life was revealed in both The Life and The Teachings of The Messiah!  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/03/the-simpler-life-becomes-more-life.html

And it is needful to REALize that The Messiah received both His Life and His Teachings from "Our FATHER(CREATOR) and GOD(SPIRIT)"! (John 20:17)
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/09/our-father-and-god-john-2017.html

TRUTH IS! The Messiah testified! "I can do nothing of My own self"....... (John 5:19,30; 8:28-29; 7:16; 12:49-50; 14:10,23-24; 17:8,14; 20:17)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/10/the-messiah-testified-i-can-do-nothing.html

And His brethren, can we do anything more?

Thankfully The Life and The Teachings of The Messiah revealed that "Narrow Way", which IS "The Way, The TRUTH, and The Life"! (Matthew 7:14, John 14:6)
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/10/the-truth-needs-be-sounded-midst.html
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2013/05/one-needs-receive-love-of-truth-to-be.html

A Testimony of receiving "a love of The TRUTH"!

The testimony that follows (with further testimony added) was given in response to a comment someone had posted concerning The TRUTH:

Good Day Dan,

i don't receive a positive comment often, so your comment was very much appreciated.

Is that blog you mentioned your's?

If so, then it most certainly seems that you are a seeker of The TRUTH. 

"Seek and you shall find" indeed! (John 8:32-36, Luke 11:9-10, Matthew 7:7-8)

And it seems you may have already experienced The Miracle that is receiving "a love of The TRUTH so that you might be saved" from your own self ("I", ego, id, pride) life. (II Thessalonians 2:10-13)
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2013/05/one-needs-receive-love-of-truth-to-be.html
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2009/05/i-must-die.html

"i have met The Enemy and it is 'I(ego, id, self, pride)'"!

So it is the "I(ego,id,self,pride)" Must Die for The Life to be!

And in as much as i can 'see',
That which is of the "I(ego,id,self,pride)" in me,

So it is i seek, desire, and to Our FATHER cry,
For deliverance from all that is of the "I".

The "I", born of "imag"ination and selfish desire,
As lust, greed, and pride, stoked a consuming fire!

"Master, Are There Few That Be Saved"?

A soul questioned, "Master, are there few that be saved"? (Luke 13:23)

And The Messiah(The Anointed One) responded:

"Strive to enter(Eternal Life) in at the narrow gate, for I say unto you that multitudes will seek to enter in, and will not be able to do so." (Luke 13:24)

And He testified: "Enter in at the narrow gate, for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leads to destruction, and multitudes go in at that gate, because narrow is the gate and small is the way(so narrow only The Messiah can lead) which leads unto Life(Eternal), and few there be that find it." (Matthew 7:13-14)

What to do? Where to go? How to cope?

I had written to someone a while ago, "i believe it needs be REALized that the most destructive and/or perverse "absolute junk", as you call it, is not the physical "thing" in and of itself. But the destructive and/or perverse thoughts that created, and dictated the use of such a "thing"!

For such "absolute junk" originates in, and emanates from mankind's "imag"ination", and mankind's "imag"ination IS truly the 'd'evil's playground! (Romans 1:21, II Corinthians 10:5)
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/07/the-nation-that-calls-itself-israel.html
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/03/sadly-imagination-and-interesting-walk.html

And so it is mankind's "imag"ination has it's portion in the destruction of Creation(air, water, land, vegetation, creatures), and worse yet in the perversion of that which IS SPIRIT(TRUTH, Light, Life, Love, Peace, Faith, Grace, Hope, Wisdom,,,,,,, ALL that is Truly GOOD)!
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2009/07/simply-progress-so-called-is-destroying.html

How can i be but sad for the braindirtyed?

Brainwashed(cleansed) has it's portion in the "strong delusion" that is of this evil world and/or religion's way in this day and age.......
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2015/09/are-you-braindirtyed-and-bound-in.html

And Hope is there will be those souls who will take the following personally!

Someone had asked, "what is your purpose"?
-------
And i responded(with further testimony added):

Not my "purpose", for back in '93 i was given the unction to reveal the doctrinal heresies, traditions, and folklore of pagan catholicism and her harlot christian daughters! For all such is of their god, he who is "the father of lies", and "the god of this evil world"! And i seek to share that which i have "seen (experienced) and heard (received)" concerning such, wherever and whenever possible....... (John 7:7; 8:44, II Corinthians 4:4, I John 1:3)  http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/08/catholicism-christianity-and.html

"They hear your words, but they do them not"! (Ezekiel 33:32) As Ezekiel and Israel, so also Mahatma Gandhi and India!

As i awoke one morning a question came to mind, "why is it so few will receive the testimony of Mahatma Gandhi in India"? Not only his words, but especially his life example in his latter years. For in his latter years i believe he sought and desired to follow The Messiah on "The Way, The TRUTH, and The Life", and liken unto The Messiah he also lived that which he taught! (John 14:6)

Then i received of "The Word of TRUTH" that bore witness unto "why so few receive Mahatma Gandhi's testimony in India", and in the rest of the world as well.

(Ezekiel 33:31-32) "And they come unto you as the people come, and they sit before you as MY people, and they hear your words, but they will not do them!
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2014/08/catholicism-christianity-and.html
http://asimpleandspirituallife.blogspot.com/2012/10/taking-bait-and-lies-are-swallowed-hook.html

For with their mouth they show much love, but their heart goes after their covetousness!

And lo, you are unto them as a very lovely song of one that has a pleasant voice, and can play well on an instrument. Yet they hear your words, but they will not do them." (Ezekiel 33:31-32)
