"BEWARE!", "GO BACK!", "You're Life is in Danger!" Oh. Wait! It's only almonds. It's okay Chicken Little, the sky is not falling in. Millions of people every day are being warned about such catastrophes as the Apocalypse, World wars, Cyber attacks and natural disasters. Millions every day are also warned of an eternal damnation in a lake of fire unless they accept the churches teachings of how to escape this.
This is a psychological tool, designed to cause a 'fear' that the church believes is beneficial for keeping people in line morally. This traumatizing of the innocents; those in the young, formative years; is veiled under the guise of the religious language of loving God and believing in the gentle Jesus of the synoptic Gospel stories.
The "rest of the story" is withheld until later when stories of a violent God come to light and the young person/young adult is given rationalizations for the inconsistent actions and attitudes of Bible characters.
The good news is that many are being set free from the effects of the subtle deception of that organization that, long ago, lost touch with the true message of Jesus the Christ. Jesus taught an inner transformation that leads to acts of true charity. Not outward acts of church attendance, tithing, praying in public, mission work, preaching, memorizing Bible verses or handing out gospel tracts.
We have missed both the message and the method that Jesus taught. Hence, the organized church has "established it's own righteousness" and not "submitted itself to the righteousness of God." (Romans 10:3)
What can we do as a church? as an individual believer? Do we have to do anything or are we alright just the way we are? How did this defection happen? Learn more in the book; 'Intuitive Bible Study A new Interpretive Model" available on amazon.com and amazon.ca.

Since I have been given the genuine salvation experience, I am like a 'kid in a candy store'. Every day, and many times moment by moment, there are glimpses of divine truth that come to mind as I review, re-study and ruminate on all that was taught before, while growing up in a church environment.
My eyes of understanding have been opened to see just how much I've missed of the soul affirming, spiritually healthy, concepts that are entwined in the mystery. parable and allegorical narratives of the Bible.
My way of viewing the Bible is now in a more comprehensive context intellectually. And the realities of the mysterious workings of the invisible realm are an actual part of my daily experience.
Although they are sincere, as was I, the church has caused much undue harm on their adherents. The mission of the Christ was (and is) to "set the captive free" and I have been released from the deceptions of the manipulating, traumatizing doctrines of eternal Hellfire and Universal sin, among others.
This page is a forum as well as a teaching platform to present the findings of my search for the divine. I make to bold statements of absolute authority and do not claim exclusive knowledge since it is impossible for anyone to know for sure the things concerning the ancient past, the spiritual realm or even the workings of the human mind.
