My Message From God - Christian Spirituality

This is a special article to me and I would like to share it with you. It seems like, every one that I have ever met, who refers to themselves as Christians, have received a special message from God.

I would like to share my message from God with every person in the world.

Why would God go out of his way to create evil people? To create people that wouldn't convert to his religion. To understand the true meaning of the one true religion. To have the ability to comprehend the truth and wisdom of Christianity.

I have been listening to Christians for years, talk about evil, the influence of the Bible on Christians, gifts from God, questioning their beliefs, lacking understanding for things that God doesn't give them or things that he takes away from them and excluding sinners from their lives.

I've been listening to Christians talk about love and caring, but excluding sinners, homosexuals and women from their church. Not allowing women to hold decision of authority or allowing them to perform certain tasks, inside of the Church.

I've been listening to Christians, quote from the Bible, with limited knowledge of the origins of that individual Bible verse, let alone the origins of their church or how Christianity was formed.

I've listened to them judge me for my beliefs and condemn others for theirs, while they are telling me about decision's they are making within their own lives, that don't support Christianity.

Just because you go to church, read the Bible or simply believe that Jesus Christ is your Lord and Savior, doesn't make you an educated Christian. It only makes you a Christian.

My message from God is simple. Learn more about Christianity and this will allow you to do one of two things. Either you will become a stronger Christian or you will relinquish your beliefs in Christianity.

Either way you will have learned more about Christianity and could consider yourself an educated Christian or simply an educated person.

Good Christians Really Do Inspire Me

One of the best Christians who I ever met, truly inspired me and everyone around him to become a better person. His son is now working at a church and his daughter is a teacher and they're not the only people who he inspired.

He inspired me to write this article, good Christians really do inspire me and others and he definitely was living his life, like Jesus did. He's the only person that I ever met, who didn't have anything bad to say about anyone, with the exception of one time. I actually heard him say that he hates that person, the person probably deserved it, but I still couldn't believe that the word came out of his mouth.

We all make mistakes, even he did, every once in a while. Whenever someone asked him about Christianity, he would try to avoid sharing his beliefs with them, unless they were persistent and then he would share all that he knew.

He never tried to convert anyone and never forced his opinions on anyone else. I asked him once," Did he actually read all of those books that he had in his library." He said that he actually did and I was shocked. He had three large library shelves that were each 4 foot wide and went almost all the way up to the ceiling, filled with books on Christianity and some on other religions.

He's the only man I ever met, that I would actually consider to be a good Christian. I don't know what it was about him, his honesty, compassion or simple kindness, but I valued his friendships and kept my ears open and my mouth shut... most of the time.

If you know someone like this in your life, I would advise you to take full advantage of their wisdom and let them inspire you to become a better Christian and if you don't believe in Christianity, these people can inspire you to become better person. A great life can be acquired, learning the wisdom from people who lead great lives.

Could Christian Pride Get You in Trouble?

There's a good chance that most of us know at least one person who seems to be very prideful. These people are often hard to deal with and can easily get their feelings hurt. When someone who has a lot of pride, gets trapped in a corner, they often come out swinging in full attack mode.

When a Christian has a lot of pride, and is faced with a problem about their religion, the opposition had better be prepared, especially if this person is large and intimidating. I'm not referring to every Christian here, I'm not even referring to every Christian with a lot of pride either, I'm referring to Christians who mix their prideful beliefs with factual evidence.

These people can often become stubborn and the more that you push or pull, the deeper they dig their heels in, until they can't even be moved in either direction. It's almost like they're feet are buried in a large concrete slab of cement.

Yes pride can get you into trouble, they key is, knowing how to get yourself out of trouble. When someone approaches you with a question about your beliefs that you don't have the answer to, simply respond with," I will have to do some research and get back with you."

Don't let your pride get in the way and create an enemy out of someone that could provide you with some useful information about other beliefs or even your own religion. Think about it, your pride can often dig holes that you might not be able to get out of.

Living the Ultimate Lie - Religious Fundamentalism

I've been doing research on Christianity and other religions throughout the world for quite some time and find it hard to believe that most of these religious followers, won't even listen to facts that I and others have found regarding their religion.

I find most of these people to be living the ultimate lie and when it comes to Christian fundamentalism or someone who I would consider to be a super Christian, these people adamantly hold both hands over their ears, while stomping their feet, trying to scare me into submission.

No matter how you slice it, no matter how you want it delivered to you, the truth is always going to be the truth. If you won't listen to the truth, you will live trapped living in a world of lies. It doesn't matter whether you're a Christian who believes in Jesus or an Islamic follower of believes in Allah, the truth, for most people, can only be found outside of your religion.

Let me give you an example of what I'm talking about. How many religions talk about how the world was created, most of their followers, choose to believe their religious leaders and their religious text, without ever questioning, but often doubting what they were taught.

Science teaches us one way, religion teaches us another, however, neither one of them have any scientific evidence to back up their theories.

The minute that you state either one of these beliefs as a truth, you're living in a world of lies. If a scientist or religious leader, can convince you that their way is right, they have simply took a belief, without any evidence and made it into a fact. This illusion, is simply a belief that you have personally made into a truth and as long as you continue to believe this, without doing any of your own research, you will continue to spread lies and rumors throughout the world.

The 11 Forgotten Laws - The Law of Thinking

There is one thing that you must first master before you can create the result that you want in life and that is not other than the law of thinking. The law of thinking simply states that your result will always in-aligned with what you think in your mind. You can't get things that you don't have in your mind.

Your circumstances, regardless good or bad is the result of how you use your mind. Thinking is the roof of everything because as you think, you speak and as you speak you do and as you do, you create the results or effect that reflect what you have thought initially. This is just simply a chain of cause and effect.

Most people are unaware of this simple truth and when bad thing happens they begin to freak and start dealing with the effect instead of the cause. If you find out that one of the pipes in your kitchen is leaking and thus causing the floor wet, will you fix the pipe or keep cleaning the floor? I bet you'll do the former.

Life is a thinking process because as you think along, you are constantly creating your reality that matches with it. This is the basic principle of the law of attraction and you can't attract things that you do not have in mind. It's just that simple but due to the collective consciousness that tend to focus on the negative instead of the positive, most people are pulled into the same kind of thinking.

One of the biggest influences that shaping the way we think is our parents. While I'm not trying to put the burden on our parents' shoulders but they do a major part on this. What would you think a child will 'tend to behave' when his parents always tell him that money is hard earned? Well, this opinion will definitely affect the way he earns money in the future because he will be using his mind to think of ways of earning money the hard way.

This is nevertheless same with prosperity and abundance. Wealthy people think in wealthy way and poor people think in poor way. They way that they use their mind determine their ability to make money and which this has nothing to do with luck or education or even the economy and government.

Scientist found out that our thoughts travel 930,000 faster than the speed of our voice and no other force or power in the Universe yet known is as great or quick, not even light. This also simply means that your thoughts have tremendous power in attracting whatever that you want in life only if you do not judge your current situation with what you have in mind. Physical manifestation definitely could not match up with the speed of your thought.

Remember that the cause always lies in your mind as The Buddha says:

"We are what we think."

In Appreciation of William Cowper

The nature of social man is in every human being, so a quest to be individual is clouded by the ideas and dogma of the social mind. Few seem immune to the many diseases of the mind and body that move through societies. In many ways we are trained to be sick. Our inborn desire to nurture causes illness to be rewarded with attention and concern from early age. When we observe new and modern diseases; AIDS, heart disease, diabetes, cancer we note that they now extend to our children manifesting in asthma, autism, and the multitude of imbalances, each bring the rewards of medicine and attention. Medical Doctors suppress the symptoms of these diseases from birth to the coffin and as a consequence you are never done with the medicine of suppression. The medical crisis lurks, but managing your mind and body discourages its appearance. Although medical society invites your dependence, you owe it to yourself to try and avoid the trappings of drugs and Iatrogenic (doctor caused) disease.

These traps include poisons from the modern processed food, modern medical medicine, inherited and modern mental delusion from the mind of others, including modern media and advertising that combine to feed fear into the universal mind creating a circle of circumstance that treats individuals like "straw dogs" (creatures made from straw that before the ceremony were worshiped, but after were trampled in the dirt). The power of big food, big medicine, and the attending hype complete a circle of human fear and destruction from which there is no easy release.

The nature of individual man is the quest of holistic inquiry. How can we find that path through life that matches our individual quest in life? How can we find the awareness to tell the difference between the noise of society and the story from within. William Cowper from his book, The Rush reflects that intention in this short vignette:

"Knowledge and wisdom, far from being one, have times of no connection.

Knowledge dwells, in heads replete with thoughts of other men:

Wisdom in minds attentive to their own."

William Cowper, The Rush

Attic Odors and Strange Smells

If you've ever opened up your attic access hole, only to find one of the worst odors you have ever smelled in your whole life, I've been there too. What causes these horrible smells and what can you do about them?

Let's start with the cause of these smells, moisture, dirt, mold, mildew, dead animals, animals that make their home in your attic and the biggest problem of all is normally poor ventilation.

Poor ventilation is the biggest problem with musty smells in the attic. These smells are often caused from moisture accumulating in the building materials over time. If there is enough moisture in the attic, the wood will start to rot but this wouldn't be a normal situation, unless there was a roof or water leak.

Roof leaks can cause a constant supply of water to one part of the attic. This constant supply of water will eventually rot the wood and damage the ceiling. Water leaks from pipes can provide a steady supply of water and the situation can attracts termites and mold. Not a good thing.

One of the worst possible smells or odors in your attic would be a dead animal. Don't under estimate the size of some of these animals, they have found dead raccoons, cats, snakes, large birds, squirrels, rats and mice in some attics. These animals usually enter through damaged access holes or vent blocks, roof vents, large gaps, holes and even fireplace chimneys.

Once these animals die, their bodies start to decompose and produce one horrible odor. Once the body is completely decomposed, the smell usually goes away if the attic is ventilated properly. These smells can seep into the homes living area, often creating a room that no one wants to enter.

Home peststhat make their home in your attics, often create smells from urinating and defecating in the areas around their nest. Large birds like owls can become a problem over time.

Now that we've figured out some of the causes for attic odors and strange smells, what can we do to prevent this from happening and if it's already happened, how can we get rid of the smell.

Greg Vanden Berge is working on the internet to promote the education for creating simple to follow guides and home building books to help professional building contractors as well as the weekend warriors. He has just finished a Home Buyers Guide to take some of the frustration out of home shopping.
