Thank you for your post

religions and there many confilcting beliefs ar e man made constantine changed many things and introduced pagan worship beliefs into christianity

look up Christmas (from pagan traditions) 25 dec pagan

look up easter (from Goddess esther) pagan

Sunday worship, (from pagan sun God by contantine

Jesus Born while (shepherds watched there flocks by night) they did not do this in Dec in winter the sheep were in corrals the shepherds watched there flocks only in lambing season, Not winter but spring,

3 wise men (where does it say that?) 3 presents Gold frankincense and murr but 3 wise men and they didnt go to see the baby in the manger! they say a (child) in a home! why do you think Herrod wanted to kill all children up to 2 years old!

it is written (THE SPIRIT WILL GUIDE YOU INTO ALL TRUTH!)

I have found the spirit had indeed shown me many things and also many human traditions nothing to do with Christianity or Christ,

negative spirits are indeed deception

to answer you statement of us all being the same or should i say not

just imagane God as a tree and we are all around him like a huge circle we all see different things and we portray in life that what we see of him we tend to join with them closest to us for they see almiost the same things what what about the others at the other side of the tree there perception and manifistation is completely different, we must try all things

if things are of emotional based and motivated it is like a reed blowing in the wind or a house built on sand but if things are of pure truth they are like a house built upon solid rock,

we must not make emotion the horse and pure truth the cart, we must make pure truth the horse and emotion the cart then we have true compassion

negative spirits attack love a man or womans main enamies are of there own household, because of the love they have for them, negativity attack Love and brings hurt and rejection and resentment,

we must guard our emotions and build our spiritual emmunity, negative spirits feed on an emotional negative response,

the choice is ourse to create our own hell or heaven choice to accept negativity thrown at us by our own loved ones or stand like a rock above it then it will not control us (greater is the spirit IN you than the spirits in the world)

choice choice choice accept or reject as your faith is so it will be unto you, and what you sow you will reap!

thank you again you are a wise woman

Yes Mike, We do need more spiritual Christians, but their may already be many spiritual Christians.  Those Christians who look at our sacred Bible and understand that information meant for us has been removed and interpreted in error. In many cases these Christians do not attend fellowship with the religious Christians.  Religious Christians tend to say one thing and do another. They also tend to use judgement a lot in their daily lives.  Who are we to judge another soul?  I believe our path is guided by God. He/She sends his/her Angels to help us thru many challenges, both to our person and to our beliefs.  Does God want us all to be exactly alike in our devotion to him/her, in our prayers, in our meditations? If so, then why were we created with such diversity? We each have a purpose in life. We each have been given some talent for fullfilling our purpose or many talents, but be assured that each one of us has been created uniquely. Some of us hold beliefs that are not in the mainstream of the religious Christians.  That does not make us second class Christians, but we feel expanded Christians, able to serve our God with more knowlegde about His multiple being.

with Love, Genelda

behind every conflict there is a I, Me, Mine,

A mother or father becomes the leader, controller, guider, advisor (a spiritual one also)

1 Peter2: 2. As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:

1 John 2; 12. I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.

13. I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him [that is] from the beginning. I write unto

you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father.

14. I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him [that is] from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one.

Heb 5: 12. For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which [be] the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.

13. For every one that useth milk [is] unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.

14. But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, [even] those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

ye ought to be teachers  as stated above as mothers and fathers in Christ, mature Christians we are to be teachers,!

Not to lord it over Gods people and not by constraint (a load of rules and regulations!)

The more rules the more bondage!

Gal 5: 18. But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

Gal 5: 1. Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

2 cor 11:19. For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing ye [yourselves] are wise.

20. For ye suffer, if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour [you], if a man take [of you], if a man exalt himself, if a man smite you on the face.

Rom 8: 14. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

15. For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

Unnecessary rules and regulations bring us again into bondage of them not free!

Matthew 23:4. For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay [them] on men's shoulders; but they [themselves] will not move them with one of their fingers.

A baby needs full control (a spiritual baby also)

A child needs full control ( a spiritual child also)

No man has any scriptural right to dominate over another with mans arrogance and pride and religious mindset, nor ‘man’s concept of how he feels you should be serving god, nor are we any mans sheep!

And once we have a relationship with God  NOT MAN but = John 16: 13. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth

Acts 5: 29. Then Peter and the [other] apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.

Note this scripture =  We ought to obey God rather than men. (This does not mean rebellion)

Note not some truth but ALL truth, from a perfect God! Not imperfect man! With his narrow mindset and belief that his way is “the” way!

We must strive for a relationship with God and be led into ALL truth by God !

Rom 8: 14. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

Led by the spirit not religion or another man we become sons and daughters

1^st Peter: 2. Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight [thereof], not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;

3. Neither as being lords over [God's] heritage, but being ensamples to the flock.

1 peter 2: 24. Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.25. For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.

Whos sheep are we the ministers or Jesus? Who is the bishop of our souls man or Jesus? Who died for you man or Jesus?

Heb 13: 20. Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,

John 10: 20. Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,

John 10 16. And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, [and] one shepherd.

Not man being the shepherd only one  shepherd  - Jesus

The children of Israel looked to the man Moses (imperfect man) and not (perfect) God who worked though the man, when the man left into the mountain they made a more imperfect idol (a golden calf)

For that they missed out on the promised land, we too can miss out on the promised land if we look to man and not God who works though man!Our shepherd is Jesus ONLY not man,

 Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep. Who’s sheep JESUS!

No man has any scriptural right  [ send green star]

If I have a relationship with God  PERFECTION  and follow his will

Why would I follow INPERFECT man,

As a child (Christian or in life) we are to obey our teachers who are responsible for us,

As an adult we are responsible for our own actions, and become teachers ourselves,

We are NOT any mans sheep, this is NOT scripture!  It is written =

John 21: 17. He saith unto him the third time, Simon, [son] of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.

Whos sheep?  The deciples?  No Jesus!

16. He saith to him again the second time, Simon, [son] of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep.

John 10: 6. But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.

27. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

note my sheep hear my voice and follow me  (not man) and also note MY  SHEEP, not mans Jesus sheep,

1 John 4: 1. Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

And false teachings within religion, not everything taught is truth, we must discern by the Holy Spirit,

believe not every spirit, but try the spirits (believe not every word spoken, is it according to THE WORD!) or mans narrow mindset and interpretation, remember = 

= John 16: 13. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth

So now what are we told to do?

Phil 2:5. Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

What was this mind?

John 5: 30. I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.

Not the will of man but =

Matt12: 50. For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.

Not the will of man the will of my Father it says the same as Jesus, remember we are to have the MIND of Jesus!

All scripture King James Version

First. we are taught by man (ministers) laymen etc, about Jesus and what He has done for us! And the law.

First the law  =  galatians 3: 24. Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster [to bring us] unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

the law is only to bring us to Jesus Christ and after we have come to Christ and accepted Him as our personal Saviour =

1Tim 1: 9. Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,

now we have come to Christ, we are no longer under the law!

Gal 5: 18. But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

When we receive the holy Ghost into our lives we will be by the Spirit guided into ALL truth NOT SOME TRUTH, not mans interpretation of truth!

John 16: 13. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, [that] shall he speak: and he will show you things to come.

We are not to put ourselves under everything a man says, whether pastor, elder , deacon or layman
