Yep....but I don't believe Jehovah is his father.
The righteous father, the Alfa and Omega is.


Jesus's father's ways vs. Jehovah's ways... obvious disconnect.

"...for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you." (John 15:14-15)

Jahova - “The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name.” (Exodus 15:3)

It'll bother you for a while, but sooner or later, your heart, if
you truly seek the truth will, say, "...Oh, my. Yes."

Deprogram the dogma.

Though, I must admit, Old Testament and pro-zionism apologetics are
entertaining. Bible waving pharisees abound aplenty. i.e. John Hagee.
(please note: there is a true distinction between being anti-Zionist vs anti-Semitic.
Half truths and omission have done well to obscure the facts from the run of the mill sheeple)

I think I've said all I have to say. It's obvious some
don't read long post all the way through. LOL.

Peace.

Illustration:

Enter a murder scene under investigation. Something bad happened.
Are the detectives arguing whether the firing pin that fired the
lethal bullet struck the primer on the cartridge properly in the
center or slightly askew? Nope. Now zoom back.
The major concern here is the larger overarching question. Yes?

Enter the teachings of Christ (mystic son of GOD) vs. Judeo Christianity (a contradiction in spirit).

In regards to Constantine (a ruler, usually prodded about by one
behind the scene counsel or another and typically garners either the
applause or condemnation of history)- the overarching point is the
the great deception of who the truly holy God is as well as what
true righteousness IS. I don't want to get caught up in being a
Pharisee or Sadducee as in the times of Christ. A clanging cymbal
full of tangled spaghetti arguments and the intellectual equivalent
of a body builder, oiled up, on the stage, flexing his butt off for
the crowd. The point is, how do we live our internal life?
God IS, regardless of childish human argument.
Professing ourselves to be wise, we become fools. Agreed?
What did Jesus teach us and what are we doing with it?
Creating and accepting ironclad dogma or giving all - absolutely all
- not for a stupid mansion in heaven or a get out of hell pass
... but just to see his face. Period. Period. Agreed?

Besides, what is coming has not been written about. Where do we each
truly stand within our hearts? You'll feel the tug of truth in you
when you hear it. Not always comfortable. But you feel it.
I used to quote scripture like crazy. But truly reaching is how
a man breaches a wall. I've given my honest and sincere opinion
on this matter. Not to stir anything up, but out of love of the
pursuit of truth. Out of love for those few truly reaching with
their utmost.

Even a Judge will tell you, evidence is not "the truth."

Take care guys.

I believe not. Now I do believe in Christ, but not Jehovah. This is not a flippant comment full of spite or guile. It is a soul searched and considered statement. If you study how the letters by everyone in the bible came to be known as the collection we know of as "The Bible," you see that Constantine blended Judaism with the teachings of Christ. Now, I do believe that Jesus was sent by his father, a truly righteous and Holy God but he is not Jehovah. Jesus said he learned his ways from watching and learning from his father.
Now, consider this... Jesus taught basically, "Hey, if you want more than all of this earth stuff, follow me. No matter the cost."
He didn't demand or threaten. Didn't strike bargains. He doesn't need you to fight, slay and take MATERIAL things i.e. land etc.
like "the God of Abraham did. If God is love, he's not Jehovah. True love honors free will. THAT'S part of the reason Jesus is the Man of Sorrows. We bring our own judgment upon ourselves and we walk with willful ignorance by choice, yes? "Let the dead bury the dead."
Now, I do believe that Jehovah/Yahweh/Enlil does exist, but as a "power or principality of the air." A great con and deception become dogma. Now if you approach the bible with these things in mind, a whole new picture emerges. Obviously, what Jesus did on the cross was massive. So massive that Christ's message was blended with a "the Bargaining God" of Abraham to obscure, co-opt and control the true message. There are several voices on the old Testament, sure. God the true father's voice does break in every now and then. The Bible, anthropologically and historically is also important.
Leviticus, for example - great anthropologically/historically, but I'm pretty sure if I ripped it out of my Bible, only book lovers (like myself) would lament the loss of the script. Observing angels would just yawn.

Holy Land? In a truly holy place, no evil can even come close to stepping near - and not because of human warriors, gates or walls. Just by the virtue of the fact that holiness actually is there. And that place is not Jerusalem OR Mecca. Holiness is away from the earth, as Jesus is showing us (even through the worm eaten scripture, his sheep hear his voice)how we must overcome ourselves to be made holy and enter in. A personal, individual transformation. Not a mass "Rapture." It's all about what's really going on in your heart in the midst of every interaction we have and NOT about religious observances. I could go on, and on as this is where I live in my head space most of the day. I'll spare you, bro. Lol.

I am a Christian and truly do strive to be more like him (Jesus). You may be a little offended (not my intention) of what I had said....but over time, the seed has been there within those who truly are reaching, truly feel deep down inside that something is a bit "Off" when trying to fit the "accepted" concept of "God" into a box, scripture or "Official Doctrine." I think as we enter into hard times, these seeds will start to grow within us here and there.
All men fall, few men reach. The Bible is full of such examples...
