"Beauty with a capital T." - Vish, 11/27/2002
I have two main things to share today. The first came second, and was a conversation I had yesterday with an old aquaintance. We talked about clarifying the future, and how I really need to. Yeah.
The second comes out of the Soul Friends class that I'm a part of through Brent House. For the past Sunday's session, we were supposed to compose a creed of our own. Since I actually put a fair amount of thought into this, I'd like to share it here. So, then.
I believe in the almighty God, the creator and maintainer of all things.
I believe that God saw fit to grace mankind with independant will,
which mankind abused, and dove out of the grace of God.
I believe that because of God's great love for us, God gave our forefathers a code by which to live,
and that mankind has failed to do so.
I believe that because of that same love, God chose to take human form,
be born on earth, and live among mankind,
existing as fully human, so as to share fully in our experience,
and simultaneously as full divine,
and that this person was Jesus of Nazareth, the Christ,
who lived a blameless life,
in order that He could be brutally murdered as a sacrifice for our sins.
I believe that Jesus Christ returned from the dead, ascended to heaven, and will return in glory.
I believe that it is only by accepting Jesus's sacrifice for our sake that any person can return to the grace of God.
I believe in a life after this one, where all who accept this grace will be reunited to God.
I'm not sure if this veganism thing is going to work out.
