We are told that the Son has the capacity, lacking in Father and Holy
Spirit, of believing in error. We are also told that the Son is a
perfect creation. This really only makes sense if the ability to
believe in error is a part of the Son's perfection. Yet how can this be?

A perfect outcome of all things is sure. We are told that God's will
will be done. The outcome is a part of God's eternal world, but the
sin and pain of separation is not. If God creates His Son with the
maximum of creative freedom, and if doing this leads to the best
outcome, it becomes understandable. On this view, the outcome of having the
Son created prior in order of cause and effect to the Holy Spirit
would also be better. This all make sense to me--anyone else?

Hi Everyone:

A group of us, which are reading the Eckhart Tolle A New Earth and are
involved in the web-class, met last Wednesday on a conference line to
have a verbal discussion about the book. Typically, we have Wednesday
tele-seminars and this last week decided to have it on the book. It
went so well that we decided to open it up to others to join us. We
have reserved another conference line to hold many more people. I
hope you can join us. Check us out at:

You can be sure, when I see Nurse Ratched, I'm going

This is Nurse Ratched and, believe me, I've had

M-28.1. Very simply, the resurrection is the overcoming or surmounting
of death. 2 It is a reawakening or a rebirth; a change of mind about
the meaning of the world. 3 It is the acceptance of the Holy Spirit's
interpretation of the world's purpose; the acceptance of the Atonement
for oneself. 4 It is the end of dreams of misery, and the glad
awareness of the Holy Spirit's final dream. 5 It is the recognition of
the gifts of God. 6 It is the dream in which the body functions
perfectly, having no function except communication. 7 It is the lesson
in which learning ends, for it is consummated and surpassed with this.
8 It is the invitation to God to take His final step. 9 It is the
relinquishment of all other purposes, all other interests, all other
wishes and all other concerns. 10 It is the single...

I tend to agree with you on this one but I will wait to see what
others think.

Happy Easter, everyone

This has always been among my favorites of the
poems that Helen authored, and published in her
book "The Gifts of God." And these three lines
from this poem have always struck me as especially
powerful.

"Think not the Holy Spirit waits for death
To offer you the gifts God gave to Him,
Or Heaven rests upon a failing breath."

~ Lee

Easter

I did not die. In rising up I did
But stay the same. Eternity had come
To claim its own from the embrace of time
And bitter kiss of death. I but came home
After a journey so diminutive
...

GOOD FRIDAY

There is no death. But there is quietness
Beyond the reaches of the world; a peace
Which only life can give. It is the life
That is the gift of God. All conflicts cease
Within this life. It beats in harmony
With all creation, beyond any sound
The world can hear. It sings a different song,
And where it reaches, there is holy ground.

There is no death. Whom God created whole
Is whole forever. Who can crucify
Eternal life? And who can bring to dust
Whom God has willed immortal? Can he die
Who rises past the universe, to rest
At one with his Creator? So are we
Ensured to life. There is no death because
God's Son belongs to Immortality.

Just few hours ago, I was thinking. I am tired to this world. I am
going to kill myself by stoping my brain. Afterall I am not going to
committ suicide ordinary way. But I may be still alive in dreams.
Those dreams are also real worlds. OK, I will kill myself in every
dream. But for the moment, let me kill myself in this stupid real
world.

And I woke up...
