Welcome to our article,
May God help me to say the right things.
Today we want to ask: Is religion important and
necessary to exist for all humanity? The answer to this question must be yes,
because religion has been important to humanity; it is enough to look at
important religious events, to see the numbers of people that attend them.
I believe that religion is necessary to every
living soul, because it is in our nature that we need to believe in God and
religion to have a meaningful life, you see, we have always felt the need to
believe in a higher power and we call this higher power God, which we like to
turn for help when we need help. We also need religions to explain our
existence.
Anyhow, religions are a set of rules of how people should
live their lives, so, they help us to decide what is good to do during our
lives. Of course, there are also man made rules that would help us to decide
how to live our lives, but those rules need to be enforced by the government
authorities, whereas the religious rules are self-imposed, because of your own
religious beliefs, therefore, religions have been important, and are important.
You see, if we look back at the history of mankind,
we will find that all civilizations had their own religious beliefs. Even though
most of those beliefs have been proven untrue, nevertheless they were helpful
to the people of those times, because they helped to create a meaningful life
for them, according to those beliefs.
Wherever we look, we find evidence that people have
believed in religions, with gods who were more powerful than us humans, which
we humans would turn for help, when we found ourselves in a dangerous situation.
Most civilizations have believed in the afterlife, which would give them some
sort of immortality, since no one likes to die and disappear forever. Some
religions proved to be good in the ancient world, but a few were disgusting and
believed in human sacrifice, to keep their gods in a favorable mood for the
rest of the community.
Today those ancient sacrificing religions have
disappeared, and the pagan religions have also disappeared, and they have been
replaced with Christianity, but some of those archaic religions have left the
signs of their existence. So, today there are still statues of gods and
goddesses to be seen; there are ancient books where we can get some ideas of
what these religions were like; there are some words in our language which come
from these ancient beliefs; as there are the names of the planets of the solar
system, which come after the name of gods and goddesses of the pagan world; in
everyday language, love sex and sexual diseases, they all seem to have
something to do with Venus the goddess of love. We believe that it is good, to
compare these beliefs that mankind has always had, with today beliefs, because
this will show the need to believe in something higher than ourselves. It is
our beliefs and spiritual consciousness that push us to do it.

Beliefs and spiritual consciousness
Now that we have looked at old religions and the
need that we humans have for religions, let us look at our beliefs and
spiritual consciousness that we have ourselves. We know that religious beliefs
are complex and there are other things to keep in mind and follow. Because
everything we believe, has something to do with our conscious or subconscious
mind, therefore, our own spiritual beliefs; it has always been like this and we
must find our own ways and beliefs.
Therefore, we may ask, what were those old
religions like and where did their beliefs come from?
We have reasons to believe that our consciousness
or sub consciousness have always played a part in religion, because things that
we believed a long time ago, we are still believing today, so, this field of
consciousness is very wide and includes many things, one example could be found
in our dreams, the old religions and today religions they both take into
consideration our dreams.
You see, since the beginning of recorded time,
people have always believed that dreams come from our spiritual side; we believe
that dreams can be a way of communication between the living and the dead,
which our subconscious mind can communicate at certain times of our lives.
Therefore, when we are sleeping, we could be in a
position to communicate with the spiritual world; I want to say this because
what follows hereunder are a few religious dreams,
which I dreamed and they are so real that I felt that I had met these spiritual
forces in my dreams?
Now, my personal religious beliefs are those of a
modified Roman Catholic person; I am saying modified because there are some
issues that I do not agree completely with this religion.
Anyhow, to give you an insight of my religious
beliefs I am going to tell you my religious dreams, as you all know dreams
reflect the inner most part of what a person beliefs are. So, I am going to
tell you my religious dreams about our Lord Jesus Christ.

First dream about Jesus Christ
MY FIRST DREAMS ABOUT JESUS CHRIST
In this first dream about Jesus Christ and other
spiritual forces, I dreamed this.
I seem to go around in many unknown places, as we
know dreams can take us in very strange places, some of these places are good
and some are not so good. At one stage during my dream I seem to be in danger,
because some evil force
or people are after me to rob me or harm me. So, I try to run away from them,
while I am running away from this danger, I try to find some safety by knocking
at a stranger door, the door opens and an old Lady lets me in, I felt safe in
there, because there were wise mature people inside, I wanted to thank the Lady
(who may well have been the virgin Mary) for letting me in: But they all seem
to smile back at me, as if I knew only half what was going on. So, I started
looking around to find the reason, and there I see my own mother beside me in
company with the old Lady: So, I could not help it; (as I was aware in the
dream that my mother had passed away a few months before) So, I asked my
mother: (in my own native language, which translated in English is) Who sends
you here to help me? Is it Jesus Christ or the Virgin Mary? There was not much
else to be said, as I was waiting for an answer from my mother, but it did not
happen, but I could feel that I was right in saying that. Anyhow, this dream
ends here because I woke up thinking about that feeling of danger.
Dear readers, I have had more dreams about Jesus Christ to tell, but I believe that this blog is long enough, so, I will split my original article of Importance of religions in two blogs, and write the rest of the dreams in our next blog. I also believe that to make sense, I may have to repeat this first dream, at the beginning of our next blog called, my dreams about Jesus Christ. See you soon.
