God gave you the gift of your OWN mind. Refuse to give it away---it is the Free Will Gift given to you by your Creator. Examine everything objectively, bravely following your own inner spirit, which lives in the bastion of your inner citadel---the place where God lives within you. Rember--you are free in Christ:

"In olden times the fetish word of authority was a fear-inspiring doctrine, the most terrible of all tyrants which enslave men. A doctrinal fetish will lead mortal…

Jim--These are quotes from The Urantia Book, talking about Pentecost. They will disagree with almost everything you now believe---but they will unsettle your mind---and, if you don't immediately reject it out of fear---you might, just might, (but I have little hope) start to see the light of truth beginning to take root in your heart. I know you are afraid---but once you realize that Jesus Christ (also known as Michael) is everything he said he was---He walked the talk--he never wavered and…

Jim Rigney,

So, what does that mean to you? Are you acknowledging Jesus before men? or

Are you saying that He failed, thereby making you better than him?

If Jesus is who He says He is----are are you worshiping Him or are you worshiping someone else?

Jim, you need to think deeply about this---before you shoot off your mouth.

It took me many years of wandering in the wilderness to finally come to the place where I could meet Jesus---and discover that he is…

Jim Rigney,

There you go again---calling people "rotten". You can't help yourself, can you? The mouth reflects the heart. If a heart is filled with love---then love flows from the mouth. Discipline is one thing---and parents sometimes need to use a stern manner---speaking truth like it is. However, a man of God needs to understand the difference between using truth to correct, heal, and love----and the "truth" that is destructive to the spirit.  A True Parent would never think to call…

The Ideal Family sounds great! Nice concept. But, my friend, tell me---what does an actual ideal family look like? Wouldn't an ideal family be a family where Satan has no way to enter? In an ideal family; would there be any wife abuse, violence, misuse of public funds, drug abuse, vengeful retoric, suicides, being pushed by Satanic forces, divorces, etc?

Some would say, "well, we still have our own 5%". If that is the case, then, what hope do any of us have----ever?

Now, you…

There is a division between North Korea and South Korea. South Korea is a bustling industrial democratic hub while North Korea is a socially backward, impoverished country. Entire generations of people have grown up under ruthless dictators. As a result, they are brainwashed so much that all they can do is hate. They live in an atmosphere of FEAR--controlled by evil men. South Korea, however, clearly shows what living in freedom is like. The successive leaders of North Korea all claim…

Your question was, "how can God be in control when He gives us Free Will?" That's a good question; and; significant. It is significant because it means that you are actually asking questions. You should ask many questions---instead of just eating every word up---and trying to rationalize how it has to be true; or how you need to change because it doesn't seem to fit with your deep beliefs. An honest spiritual seeker will continuously ask the questions and follow the answers. If something…

Jim,

You don't understand because you didn't read the book---now, did you? Come on Man--admit it---you already had your mind set on rejection---just like the pharisees did---don't you? If you don't make room for higher truth---it can never come in----yup---you got the "old wine skins" thing going on. Are you any different than a Jihadist or a Baptist?

Rev. Moon says what he says--through his speeches.By what mechanism can one determine if what he says is accurate or not? This is a very big question----and it can only be answered by each individual person, weighed out against the backdrop of their own personal life of faith. Some, such as yourself BELIEVE his words to be completely accurate. That is your own decision, and you are entitled to it. A truly wise man, will recognize that they have the freedom and the responsibility to search…

My Friend Jim,

God was able to create the Cosmos---and uphold it forever. Could we agree on this? Billions of galaxies each containing billions of stars---and who knows how many planetary systems circle those stars---and God upholds the very gravity to those systems. He can do all that----and yet----cannot control itsy, bitsy, puny little man? Those poor little--gas breathing sex creatures---rebelled against God and broke His heart---and the great God of creation cannot do anything…

You know, when someone writes a book, and it receives negativity----it just makes the book that much more popular---and more people get to read it---and think about it. So, thank you Jim---for publicizing my blogs. It might cause members to think and to realize that they are free to find God and Jesus on their own. That's why Jesus said that he didn't need people to "believe in him"---but "with him". If Rev. Moon is a true Self-Realized Master----and he sees a prodigal son going off in his…

God created man as a helpless baby, crying for it's mothers milk and protection--completely dependent- but emitting innocent joy and love. As he grows, he begins to make decisions---finally culminating in a decision to serve others. This is when clearer communication with the Creator begins. 

The more often it is attempted to establish a clear connection with your ‘on board…

JESUS enjoyed a sublime and wholehearted faith in God. He experienced the ordinary ups and downs of mortal existence, but he never religiously doubted the certainty of God’s watchcare and guidance. His faith was the outgrowth of the insight born of the activity of the divine presence living within him. His faith was neither traditional nor merely intellectual; it was wholly personal and purely spiritual.

The human Jesus saw God as being holy, just, and great, as well as being true,…

I hate to hog the blog site here, and I'm wondering where all the other 1975 missionaries went? But, since the site appears to be empty, hey, why not have fun and post? My ongoing discussion with Jim Rigney is interesting, at least to me. All this "satan" talk flying around. Did you ever watch the "Church Lady" on Saturday night live? "That's special!" Well, this whole conversation is about as ridiculous as those skits were. It's easy to label other people but, how much do we really know…

Jim Rigney,

I'm beginning to wonder if there is hope for a person that is so full of himself---that there is no way of having a two-way communication. If a person is so puffed up with his own pride that he is living in a parallel universe---I'n not even sure how God Himself could reach him. Jim represents all of the brainwashed bigots of history. He is not unlike the Jihadist, that would even blow himself up in order to kill as many of the infidels as possible. Jim does not have the…

"The chief priests and the teachers of the law heard this and began looking for a way to kill him, for they feared him, because the whole crowd was amazed at his teaching

And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins

They arrived again in Jerusalem, and while Jesus was walking in the temple courts, the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders came to him.…

God is omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent. That means that He is all-powerful, all-knowing, and present everywhere throughout the universe. He said in the Bible that "he calls all of the stars by name; knows when every sparrow falls; and counts the very hairs on our heads".

So, if God is all this----and evil is happening on the earth causing millions of struggling mortals to suffer---why doesn't the loving God do anything about it?

The answer to this question solves a very…

Oh beloved Father! How many times did Jesus hope for repentance from the people of Israel, from the Pharisees and the people of the Jewish religion who did not believe in him?

Please allow us to become people whose minds and bodies are touched by the course of Jesus who was driven out and pursued and was not able to sleep in peace, and please let us become people who cannot help but feel the heart of Jesus, whether we want to or not, and who cannot help but begin to resemble his…

The Master was a perfected specimen of human self-control. When he was reviled, he reviled not; when he suffered, he uttered no threats against his tormentors; when he was denounced by his enemies, he simply committed himself to the righteous judgment of the Father in heaven.

At one of the evening conferences, Andrew ked Jesus: “Master, are we to practice self-denial as John taught us, or are we to strive for the self-control of your teaching?

 Wherein does your teaching differ…
