Imagine, teaching the children of Man how to become Sons and Daughters of God, Disciples of the Messiah and what the Christ taught to the Apostles. The first of the Jews to be the Chosen of the Son of Man, that YHWH or Yahweh calls his Son and High Priest. For doing his goodwill of loving others, even those that would make themselves his enemies.
And become his mouthpiece, preaching his Gospel of the word Good and of a Good God and Father of Jews and Gentiles alike. That all are made from and in his Image of invisible of Spirit. Making all human beings a child of God and brothers and sisters deserving of that love and inheritance.
The Christ said: that all can do as he did, meaning loving one another eg, "love your neighbor as yourself", by following the Golden rule, writing the Commandments on your hearts and obeying the law. Rather than being lawless, reprobate and unrepentant.
Saul proving that with rebuke reproof and correction, repentance is possible for even the Chief of Sinners, becoming Paul.
But Rome being carnally minded corrupted the good word and made it evil. And like the dog returning to its own vomit returned to the idea and the law of the shedding of Blood. The law of using the blood of Sacrifices as appeasement, rather than obeying the law that serves and protects the victims. The women and children, the least among you, from those that would break it and abuse them.
The shedding of the blood of sacrifice does nothing to save the victims of the lawless and reprobate from harm and abuse. It does nothing nor serves and protects no one especially the little ones from being hurt, tortured or even murdered. In Fact, it encourages the abusers of them.
Just stop and think about it, if you are being told this is what a good God & good Father would, could, should want. Test everything just as you do before you eat and drink, whether or not you will like the taste and smell of it, Is it GOOD? If not then you will not eat or drink of it!
Do the same no matter how much someone puts your feet to the fire and refuse to be extorted and bribed by them. Never allow Fear to be your guide but let Love and the Spirit of Truth be the Light you follow. The Yoke Easy and Burden Light.
Better to be a Servant in Heaven than the Master in Hell. God will not be mocked, you will Reap whatever you Sow!
To Be or Not to be, good or bad, good or evil, is the question you should be asking yourself. Is what you are being told to believe, knowing as you believe so shall ye be and do. Going to lead you if you follow it, doing good in this life, following after the Best Man at the Feast, the man God calls his Son?
Or making you into a Devil, your Nature Evil and unable to do good, serving evil and it, your Master living in fear of it and a heart full of Hatred for it?
This Life of the Living is the Only Place you have to test anything of the here and now so be here and now to test it. Do what the Messiah says and test everything or not but do not do the opposite and just worship an IMAGE that you give his Name, claiming that is the same as picking up your own cross and following him.
Especially if you do not believe in the God and Father that called him Son before he sent him!
To be the Doctrine of the Christ it must have both Our Father and his Son, side by side, able to see Both even if only one is Visible and the Other Spirit.
Look in the Mirror, do you see both the Flesh and the Spirit, the I am? What were you before you were born and will be after no longer in the flesh? Ask Elijah or John the Baptist where were they before they came again and took up the flesh?
