Fundamentalist Christians

Let me be quite specific ..

I have no issue with what you as a person believe. I only make it an issue when you are rude to me, inform me I am wrong for broad reasons, and from badly translated copies of your personal Bible.

Don't tell me I am going to hell just because I argue with your interpretation of the Bible. If you want to have a discussion, be prepared to state Chapter and Verse, because I'll be checking it up, taking it back to the original languages, and questioning 'why' you think what you do. And I would expect you to do the same to me (but you don't?) So think it through!

And don't come onto a site where I am talking paranormal subjects with other people, and butt in and expect a friendly welcome. We have heard it ALL before, and most of us don't need to hear it ever again. And let me remind you, your Bible says you should not associate with people like me - so what are you doing on a site that defies the teachings of your Bible? We are not looking for missionaries. We do not need to be saved, and often, some of the people with me there do not even WANT to be saved .. by the God who hates instead of loving, who judges and torments, and finds us all wanting.

In that case I would have to question your judgment. Why love a being you fear? Isn't that what hostages come to do to their captors, and don't we see it as a mental illness, something they have to be cured of?

I am not the cure. I make no claim to knowing everything, or anything, about God, but I speak from my experiences, from the knowledge I have gained over the years through my readings in the theological field, anthropology, mythology, christianity and metaphysics.

You will not convert me to your way of thinking by throwing the Bible at me. For one, respect your books! For another, I will pick it up and throw it right back at you! And if you can't catch .. duck! LOL

And we love you .. says a quiet voice in my head. God loves you, all of you, so much. How could you possibly doubt that? Only 144,000 people are supposed to be able to go to heaven. Are we all so sinful that there are only 144,000 good people on the planet right now? Or was it the number of recognised Christians at the time the Revelation was written? What does logic say? I am frightened to think that there could be so few.

Love & Peace

Spiritual Soapbox

.
Good God its afternoon again. What happened to the morning .. oh I know, I spent a large part of it trying to change the background pictures on this site, and my other 'sacred gates'. I succeeded finally, after abandoning any hope of uploading my own favourite pictures. I settled for the wood of a crate for this one .. very appropriate given its new title. Yes, the site will still be about God, Spirit, the angels, demons, elementals, and hopefully a tiny bit of wisdom that I have been trying to acquire over the years. I noticed I succeeded in not writing a thing here since 11 March 2010. That didn't mean I wasn't writing .. believe me, I was .. there are reams of Allexpert.com (paranormal) pages to prove it, and then there was the meetup group .. which turned into more of a struggle than it was worth .. so its gone, but some of us remain - quietly hidden (lol) away at yahoo and facebook. In summing up the year I have to say the rest of it was a struggle - a mood swing and hot flush and other joyful symptoms of peri-menopause one .. so before I go any further, for those who also suffer, the Australia Menopause Centre is wonderful. Check them out. They have been my saving grace! http://www.menopausecentre.com.au/online/index.php

In the last nine months I have made many attempts to write a blog or two here. I even started a couple of other blogs with the same results .. no words were forthcoming on any particular subject, because most of the time it was my frustrations I wanted to express, and not the joys. When I sat down this morning I 'clarified' my thinking, which Spirit had been asking me to do for some time .. I deleted two of my blogs and settled down to keep just these two. I intend to try and write in each each day, but if I don't .. you'll know there's a very good reason. Call it my new year's resolution. I usually resolve not to resolve anything, but not this time. Things have got to change! :-) So this site is for expressing the challenges in life, and sacred gates will be for the joys.

Having spent at least an hour under the clothes line hanging clothes and talking to myself, everything I wanted to say here has vanished .. so I'll sign off for now and flip over and write something cheeful at Sacred Gates. The link is there on the right if you want to follow.

Have a wonderful day, have a wonderful year, and most of all, have a wonderful life,
Love & Light

Excuse me while I blow off a little steam.

.
One of the puzzles of my life is why people will go to clairvoyants, and/or tarot readers, for readings when they don't want to hear what the person has to say. Oh, I am not talking about you personally, I know you won't argue with me when I say something you don't want to hear. You won't explain to me how I am wrong about so-and-so whom you are madly in love with - because she, or he, is wonderful and truthful, and only lies to other people. Hmm.. no, no, you will hang on my every word, and trust everything I say .. and I will be wondering exactly what it is you think I said, because obviously you are not listening to any of it.

Ok, so I am ranting. I love doing readings for people. I love watching their lives falling into those patterns that they have been creating for themselves, over such a long time. I love seeing them heal from old fears and new ones. I love watching them change their minds, their tunes, and their attitudes. It is one of life's pleasures when people get back to me and say 'it happened .. it really happened'. Yes, it happened, angel, just the way you wanted it to. Or didn't want it to, some of the time.

The future is open to interpretation, just as we reinterpret the past to fit how we want to feel about ourselves. The future appears, for me, in a series of stepping stones based on the choices we make today. Each step can lead to many different possibilities, none of them absolutely fixed. We can choose to change, our hearts, our minds, our thoughts, our feelings, and in doing so change our lives.

So when you say to me "oh no, you are wrong, its not like that at all", you are already changing your future away from what you asked me to review for you. Why do you come to me if you only want me to tell you what you want to hear? Why don't you just go back to daydreaming, or fantasizing? Yes, with our thoughts we do make things happen, but only for ourselves. If you are trying to make someone else do what you want, or be what you want, it is their choices involved, not yours. You can dream the person in your head, but if they are living already they will not fill the shoes you want them to wear. I know this from experience, I've been heart-broken too.

Why do people come to us for readings - because they are doubting their own inner instincts and want to be told that those instincts (that say this is not a wise choice) are wrong. It is about trusting yourself. It is so easy to place responsibility for your actions on others, to not pick up the mantle of 'trust' and wear it .. because sometimes it can be heavy, and sometimes it can hurt. If I say something will happen, in the way you seem to want me to, then you can be mad at me when it doesn't work out, rather than blaming yourself for not trusting your first instincts that said 'don't go there', 'don't do that', 'you know it is not true'.

I am sorry you are hurt because of what I told you. I am also sorry, in a way, that I cannot tell you only what you want to hear. I have my ethics too. I will tell you the future as I see it, and you will continue to argue - for you want things to be the way you want them. Well, if you want that so much why do you not trust yourself and not waste your time with me?

Follow your heart, and trust your instincts .. that inner feeling is your guides and angels talking to you .. saying 'we love you no matter what'. If we all did that then we would all be clairvoyant .. and know the truth of the song of our hearts.

Love & Light

I love you

There was a book I read a few years ago, a part of which surprised me very much. It was only one chapter. the title was 'what God wants from you', or something like that. What God wants. The pages of the chapter were totally blank, and as I looked through each wondering at the 'revelation' I realised just how wrong the totally blank pages were .. to me they said 'God wants nothing from me' .. but that is not true. Even if God truly does only observe humanity and not interfere, God loves us .. loves us profoundly .. loves us deeply .. and allows us to 'be' all the small nasty people we can be, all the great and glorious we are equally capable of being. And asks only one thing 'Love as I Love you'.

God loves unconditionally - 'he' proves that every day. He gave us free will, that means that we can ignore him, invoke him, scream at him, lie to him, pretend he doesn't exist .. even when we then ask a friend to 'pray for us' so that we can achieve our dreams, rant at him, rage at him, worship him, beg for things, ask for things, kill ourselves and each other, ruin our environment, kill all his other creations, ignore his good works and the people trying to achieve them - regardless of our behaviour; what else can I add to the this? I'm sure you can think of a few things.

And if you look in your heart and soul you will find his message there ..

"Love child, be simply love, child,
Be what you will be,
what you are, child .. simply Love Child,
Know your true nature,
God in creation, part of the whole self,
Part of the truth, child,
Be simply Love,
Child ..."

Song of Creation .. sung for the children of 'man' (humanity).
