| As humans we have so many prejudices and those prejudices blinds us to all truths as God would have us see them. The Universe is the mind of God and as such we are the thoughts of God ,(his creation), real to ourselves but to God only a vapor and a second in time. The Universe and all that's in it consist of all the knowledge in the mind of God. Man is blind to so many realities because of religion and predjudice. | | |

| Who created God ? In human reasoning it's hard for us to comprehend the idea that a being could always be and would have the ability to create himself. But if we free our minds from earthly restraints and cultrual thinking the posibility of this can be conceived. If by God, we mean those beings who posess eternal life and creative ability, then to us an angel could be considered a God. But if by God we mean the creator then we have to concede that he could indeed create himself and it would be within reason that God or the Creator was self created. | | |

| What is the importance of religion ? The importance of religion is in it's ability to deflect the attention of a subjugated people away from those who would be their masters and in the process ligitimise their rulership by claiming God has put them in athority. In truth religion is a Satanic device use to drive a wedge between humanity and the Kingdom of God ; which according to the Bible teaching, Jesus has been appointed Ruler. How else could Satan rule over man unless he uses religion to make legal his athority. | | |

| WHEN Jesus came to His own hometown synagogue to preach, he astonished the people with His teachings. In their amazement, they asked, "Whence hath THIS man this wisdom, and these mighty works? Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? And his sisters, are they not ALL with us?" (Matt. 13:54-56).

Forum / Religion / Re: why is JESUS called lamb of GOD and lion of triba of judea |
on: 9-10-2009 03:23 AM
| The lamb and the lion seemingly two opposites but as each coin has a head and a tails, Lamb and Lion is really two sides of the same coin (metaphorically speaking ). The Bible speaks of Jesus as the Lamb of God in reference to his being sacraficed as lambs were during the Jewish Passover. In the context of the Gospels of Mathew, Mark, Luke and John there is also reference to him being called the king of the Jews. As Pontus Pilate asked " are you the King of the Jews ". Pilate knew from historical references that jesus was in the Davidac line to become king, hence the Lion symbolised the Jewish head of state. Remember palm sunday, this was the actual coronation of Jesus as king of the Jewish nation. This coranation was also an affront to the ruling elete of Israel of which Herod was placed by the Romans as King. Those in power knew that if Jesus was to take his rightful place as king ,their power would be in jepardy so they ploted with Herod and Pilate to have him crusified. The Sanhedrian fearing Roman retribution if they went along with this coranation also ploted among themselves to sacrifice Jesus the real King ,so that the nation of Israel would be spared destruction at the hands of the Roman Legions. Thus Jesus was sacrificed as a passover Lamb even though he was the true King or Lion of Judah. Thats why He is called the Lamb of God and the Lion of Judah. | | |

| The problem in Zimbabwe,is Robert Mugabe and his political cohorts.The most important resource of any country is it's people, be they white ,black,red or yellow.Mugabe's' first mistake was to remove the very people who knew how to produce an abundant food supply and replace them with inept lackeys. The food production know how of the white Zimbabweans should have been studied and successful pratices put in to place nation wide. The whites should have been allow to stay and been compensated for their land and know how.They should have been allowed to be a part of the government ,but instead was run off the land and replaced by people who had no idea how to raise crops and feed the population.Robert Mugabe harsh rule and lack of vision in leading all the people and not just those who agreed with his policies is the problem. Good ideas don't always come from those who agree with you.He should have been above the fray and the president of all the people ,providing good educational opportunity's, research into how to grow better agricultural products,developing the countries infrastructure,and educating the people, developing financial institutions, hospitals, housing and industry.Instead he stole the economical blood of his people depositing it in foreign bank. The fate of any people depends on the wisdom and moral character of its leaders. Look at the people of Zimbabwe it reflects the morality and character of Robert Mugabe. The people of Zimbabwe are impoverished because the character and morality of their leader is lacking. If the leaders of a country are basically moral the people will prosper. | | | |
