“If your brother, a Hebrew man or a Hebrew woman, is sold[a] to you, he shall serve you six years, and in the seventh year you shall let him go free from you. 13And when you let him go free from you, you shall not let him go empty-handed. 14You shall furnish him liberally out of your flock, out of your threshing floor, and out of your winepress.(B) As the LORD your God has blessed you, you shall give to him. 15(C) You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the LORD your God redeemed you; therefore I command you this today.” - Deuteronomy 15:12-15
44Both thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, which thou shalt have, shall be of the heathen that are round about you; of them shall ye buy bondmen and bondmaids.
45Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them shall ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which they begat in your land: and they shall be your possession.
46And ye shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit them for a possession; they shall be your bondmen for ever: but over your brethren the children of Israel, ye shall not rule one over another with rigour. - Leviticus 25:44-46
Don’t imagine that I came to bring peace to the earth! I came not to bring peace, but a sword. - Matthew 10:34
Slaves, obey your earthly masters with deep respect and fear. Serve them sincerely as you would serve Christ. - Ephesians 6:5
All slaves should show full respect for their masters so they will not bring shame on the name of God and his teaching. 2 If the masters are believers, that is no excuse for being disrespectful. Those slaves should work all the harder because their efforts are helping other believers[a] who are well loved. – 1 Timothy 6:1-2
20And if a man smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and he die under his hand; he shall be surely punished.
21Notwithstanding, if he continue a day or two, he shall not be punished: for he is his money. – Exodus 21:20-21
You must kill those who worship another god. Exodus 22:20
Kill any friends or family that worship a god that is different than your own. Deuteronomy 13:6-10
Kill all the inhabitants of any city where you find people that worship differently than you. Deuteronomy 13:12-16
Kill everyone who has religious views that are different than your own. Deuteronomy 17:2-7
Kill anyone who refuses to listen to a priest. Deuteronomy 17:12-13 Kill any false prophets. Deuteronomy 18:20
13 that scoundrels among you are leading their fellow citizens astray by saying, ‘Let us go worship other gods’—gods you have not known before. 14 In such cases, you must examine the facts carefully. If you find that the report is true and such a detestable act has been committed among you, 15 you must attack that town and completely destroy[a] all its inhabitants, as well as all the livestock. 16 Then you must pile all the plunder in the middle of the open square and burn it. Burn the entire town as a burnt offering to the LORD your God. That town must remain a ruin forever; it may never be rebuilt. 17 Keep none of the plunder that has been set apart for destruction. Then the LORD will turn from his fierce anger and be merciful to you. He will have compassion on you and make you a large nation, just as he swore to your ancestors. - Deuteronomy 13:13-17

I've heard them say on the radio that muslims are very dangerous because of what is written in the koran. hmmmmm.......
PS Oops, I'd better say this: Im not trying to incite anything. What I'm saying is we're all the same. There are good people and bad people, and you can't stereotype people from any particular group, even when you think you have irrefutable evidence. |

Micah 6:8
He has showed you O man, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly, and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.
This is my favorite verse.
May you live in light and in love, Kathy |

I am actually just joking, those aren't my favorite quotes, that would be horrible, I was being sarcastic, of course.
I am just showing how corrupt the Bible has become, and how far removed it is from the true teaching of Christ as taught by the Essenes.
With the above verses, it's easy to see how someone like Hitler could have been inspired to do the holocaust (burnt offering).
"Then you must pile all the plunder in the middle of the open square and burn it. Burn the entire town as a "burnt offering" (holocaust) to the LORD your God." - Deuteronomy 13:16
Hitler was a devout Christian.
a) Hitler was baptized as Roman Catholic during infancy in Austria.
b) As Hitler approached boyhood he attended a monastery school. (On his way to school young Adolf daily observed a stone arch which was carved with the monastery’s coat of arms bearing a swastika.)
c) Hitler was a communicant and an altar boy in the Catholic Church.
d) As a young man he was confirmed as a “soldier of Christ.” His most ardent goal at the time was to become a priest. Hitler writes of his love for the church and clergy: “I had excellent opportunity to intoxicate myself with the solemn splendor of the brilliant church festivals. As was only natural, the abbot seemed to me, as the village priest had once seemed to my father, the highest and most desirable ideal.” -Adolf Hitler (Mein Kampf)
e) Hitler was NEVER excommunicated nor condemned by his church. Matter of fact the Church felt he was JUST and “avenging for God” in attacking the Jews for they deemed the Semites the killers of Jesus.
f) Hitler, Franco and Mussolini were given VETO power over whom the pope could appoint as a bishop in Germany, Spain and Italy. In turn they surtaxed the Catholics and gave the money to the Vatican. Hitler wrote a speech in which he talks about this alliance, this is an excerpt: “The fact that the Vatican is concluding a treaty with the new Germany means the acknowledgement of the National Socialist state by the Catholic Church. This treaty shows the whole world clearly and unequivocally that the assertion that National Socialism [Nazism] is hostile to religion is a lie.” Adolf Hitler, 22 July 1933, writing to the Nazi Party
Hitler and the Pope Hitler worked CLOSELY with Pope Pius in converting Germanic society and supporting the church. The Church absorbed Nazi ideals and preached them as part of their sermons in turn Hitler placed Catholic teachings in public education. This photo depicts Hitler with Archbishop Cesare Orsenigo, the papal nuncio in Berlin. It was taken On April 20, 1939, when Orsenigo celebrated Hitler’s birthday. The celebrations were initiated by Pacelli (Pope Pius XII) and became a tradition.
Each April 20, Cardinal Bertram of Berlin was to send “warmest congratulations to the Fuhrer in the name of the bishops and the dioceses in Germany with “fervent prayers which the Catholics of Germany are sending to heaven on their altars.” (If you would like to know more about the secret dealings of Hitler and the Pope I recommend you get a book titled: Hitler’s Pope: The Secret History of Pius XII, by John Cornwell)
h) Due to Hitler’s involvement with the Church he began enacting doctrines of the Church as law. He outlawed all abortion, raged a death war on all homosexuals, and demanded corporal punishment in schools and home. Many times Hitler addressed the church and promised that Germany would implement its teachings: “The National Socialist State professes its allegiance to positive Christianity. It will be its honest endeavor to protect both the great Christian Confessions in their rights, to secure them from interference with their doctrines (Lehren), and in their duties to constitute a harmony with the views and the exigencies of the State of today.” –Adolf Hitler, on 26 June 1934, to Catholic bishops to assure them that he would take action against the new pagan propaganda “Providence has caused me to be Catholic, and I know therefore how to handle this Church.” -Adolf Hitler, reportedly to have said in Berlin in 1936 on the enmity of the Catholic Church to National Socialism
These are my favorite quotes:
Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. - Luke 17:21
I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High. – Psalms 82:6
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me (Jesus), the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. - John 14:12
I don't know how it is possible for religions to teach love and then have quotes like that, it's seems contradictory to me.

"The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field." Matt: 13:44
Namaste:

This is a result of people putting all their faith in one religion. Believing that all truth comes from one source leads people astray no matter what the source. Most of the conflict in the world today comes from that. |

kill kill kill hehehe, now i c why most of the gnostics say that the god of the old testament is satan himself.
but to be fair there are good and there are bad stuff.
but the sad thing is that people mostly from all religions and doctrines are implicating the bad teachings instead of the good ones and the middle east is the biggest theater for that show.
Namaste

Yes if we just stick to the simple teachings of Jesus of treating others well, and be still and know thyself, and we can ignore most of the rest. Of course Jesus didn't have that written down for all time. Hmmm. . . .it's almost like he knew what people do with things that are written down, and he didn't want to be put on a pedestal, and to darken the world with more writings to be worshipped.
I've heard people argue "Jesus probably couldn't write". But people worshipped him. All he had to do is say "Write this down". i don't believe he never met anyone who could write. I think he was quite conscious of what he was doing. |
