(Strip The EMAIL = yes..)

Has your nature changed? Apparently somewhat (for they who are less sinless) and not so much for they who were saved by grace. So with your “new or not so new” nature, what do you expect....what do you need, want and desire?

ME? Shouldn't I say where I came from first? Out in Deep Left Field 40 of 50 years pounding down wheat, sugar, alcohol, and combusted smoke then BANG, heart attack. 100% blocked, ended up with a stent, then thought DAPT drugs for life. Statins made me bedridden. Then I got nutrition, with weight, blood pressure, and inflammation down, I'm off all the dapt drugs, safely. I can't smoke, drink, and my diet is hard core, but I am alive, I have learned to LOVE FOOD, so what I need now is land for more crops to plant more (I already had a garden), I have good luck with some things over others. I need to have an fresh produce every day, so I need to plant, I want to have a happier life with time for more electronics, I want to be able to see things closer than four inches to my eye again, I desire to have a family, but I still don't cause well as you saw at the beginning 40 of 50 years I was a sweaty drooling mess.

IF you want to talk about morals, the oath that a soldier /or official takes, that sums it up for me. Most of the problems now are from the current government breaking/treason of that oath.

Sin was invented, Hell was invented, and Karma is nonsense. All these do is close your mind off with fear. Ask yourself Who benefits. The church keeps control.

You going to have to do a lot more work if you plan to become a "living stone god" (little g) yourself. Why will anyone want to worship you, and what are your accomplishments? Do you come with a Pocket pop-out MYTH?! And if you allow your ego to be WORSHIPED what the heck does that say about your wild spirit. what the ultimate moral is do you harm or kill senselessly. if someone can whip out a 45 ACP and get people to worship them, it don't make them a stone god (A Stone GOD (little g) which has real power from worshipers of thousands of years and even today adding energy into it) I am not sure how you become a BROUGHT DOWN power yourself. better be really enthusiastic I suggest.

God (BIG G) can't touch us. God don't give a crap about us. God ain't MALE, or female, god is so far beyond human comprehension you can't even think it, it's the thought that can't be thunk. God has no petty human emotions or feelings. It will better to think of GOD as an "it"

I can't tell you why your here, or if you want to be moral, but it sounds like you've got more exploring to do still and I ain't saying I know anything at all. I don't, I am constantly amazed.

I only know my needs are no longer for booze, and poison food. And my bmi is rocking my A1C, and my doctor is FATTER than me. Are things perfect? NO. I wear the pinhole glasses, I have pain, I keep my mind positive because I know myself, and stay informed, I love all religions, not death cults. I can hunt, dig, fly, swim or shoot. Staying alive isn't a MORAL.

: If consciousness (life) ISN’T about adventures in new
: realities, what is it about?

: If life IS as some religions (theologies) teach: “Conquer your
: weaknesses and become less sinless– more morale,” or as
: some other’s teach: “Believe ... and you are saved”, what
: happens to spirits when some have conquered some sins and
: others have not, but are saved none-the-less?

: So you are dead, are saved, and anticipating your next
: existence.

: Has your nature changed? Apparently somewhat (for they who are
: less sinless) and not so much for they who were saved by
: grace. So with your “new or not so new” nature, what do you
: expect....what do you need, want and desire?

: If you say, “Whatever God wants?” (well....you could have said
: THAT while alive and strived for it (and maybe you did) but
: since there are no sinless people, according to some
: teachings, you’re probably going to desire pretty much what
: you desire now, UNLESS God changes your nature for you, OR,
: places you in a “heaven” where there are no temptations.

: With that said, perhaps life ISN’T about becoming moral
: creatures.

: But let’s say it is. YOU are now “sinless” (whether by works
: or grace or both). What are you wanting out of life with
: your new nature? Perhaps your new nature is literally DOING
: the “love others as yourself” (total unselfishness). That
: would be heaven. And so you’re in heaven....doing what?
: Enjoying life more fully. Enjoying a new adventure.

: Because of THE PLAN (let’s say it is THE PLAN as some
: theologies teach) God offers you (because of your changed
: nature) to become a “Father & Mother” (mini-gods) to a
: new world He wants populated. THAT WOULD BE AN ADVENTURE
: FOR SURE.

: Of course all the above is assuming there is a God and that He
: has a plan for man (whether to dwell in heaven...forever,
: or ... from heaven create and populate new worlds).

: If there is an after-earth-life, meaning consciousness
: continues, then it would be kinda nice to have something to
: do...which, if it isn’t boring and mundane, would be an
: adventure, meaning, doing something that “excites” your
: consciousness and motivates you to continue living
: eternally.

: Now you could say, “Don’t worry about it...it’ll be just
: fine.” But on the other hand, it is written, “Come now, and
: let us reason together, saith the LORD...”

: Perhaps common sense, logic, reasoning (and thus thinking) are
: not anti-thesis to religious teachings. And hope, belief,
: faith and feelings have their place, and my take on them
: is: Hope, belief, faith and feelings are tools to gain
: knowledge, understanding and wisdom and not substitutes for
: them (just wondering on a Friday evening before we get
: bombed and helter-skeltered into another adventure ). nem.
