Prayers of Reconciliation

Welcome to my blog, Religious reconciliation doc

And my post, Prayer of reconciliation;

We need to pray God our own personal way.

Prayers of Reconciliation

Welcome to my blog, Religious reconciliation doc

And my post, Prayer of reconciliation;

May God help and guide me to write the right religious things in this chapter called, Prayers of Reconciliation, being part also of Prayers for Reconciliation religious writings.

Since the name of this post suggests praying let us start with a prayer.

People prayer to God

We come to you praying God-Most-High master and eternal life giver of the universe, we are praying thee for forgiveness, reconciliation, cleansing, guidance and blessing.

Father, we are praying and hoping that in your mercy you would forgive us all our life sins, and that you would make us spiritually clean of any impurities that may affect our souls; and thus, we would become worthy to pray to you and our prayers of forgiveness and reconciliation would be heard and accepted.

We are praying in the hope that we would receive your forgiveness, reconciliation cleansing, guidance and blessing, and after receiving them, let us be your humble servants.

Father, hear my prayer forgive me my sins and bless me; so that I can live in harmony with thy eternal life-force; Amen.

--------------------------------------------

Our second prayer to God

My second prayer to God
Almighty and merciful Father, I am praying thee with all my heart my soul and my mind earnestly, hoping that in your mercy you would let be a healthy old man and live a long life, Father guard and protect me from all dangers and the forces of evil, and let me be a very wise man, so that I would be able to live the rest of my life according to your will, and also be able to write these religious writings as humanly as possible according to your will, and in such a way that humanity may accept them and use them for the future benefit of mankind.
-
Now, let me try to explain how I feel about my prayers and why they have been written this way.
Dear readers: As you can see, my prayers above are directed to our Father God Most High and that is good, as God is really the divinity that we should all be praying before any others and also because God would be the centre of all the existing spiritual forces.
You see, by praying to God-Most-High directly, not only we would be able to say a better prayer; but we would also be able to neutralize any doubts in the mind of other religious people who belong to other religions and have different gods; because God-Most-High would become the focal point where all religions meet together; therefore all religions become the same, and we would appear as brothers to all the world religions at the same time, because we would be able to bypass any doubts of separatism in the minds of people belonging to other religious groups as God most high is the focal point to all existing religions.
Of course all religious groups have their own way of praying, and they could keep their own praying ways, if they like to do so, since that is the way that they know how to pray. I am sure that it will not make any difference at all how they pray, because they still should be able to link their own prayers to our Father God Most High, as God-Most-High is the highest of all positive life-force that guides the whole universe, and therefore, He links all religions together, since all religions have been born from Him.
-------------------------------------

People prayers to God

Since all religions have been born from God Most High, since all existing life has been born from his/it life energies, then whichever religion you happen to be in has a direct connection to God. This may not be easy to understand, but all will become clearer as we explain to you again and again as we go on writing and explaining our views and you read them. But now let me say just a few more things about this subject; pointing out to you how and why a prayer (a person who prays) should start to pray his own personal prayer.
Any praying person should start to pray in his own personal way that is in the way which he has been taught to pray from his parents or community which one belongs. Therefore, in these religious writings we will not be able to show everyone how to pray or start praying, because I/we would only be able to pray our own way; and therefore, we all must try to use your own ways of praying, even if we happen to use our own personal way of praying to God.
Now, since most of our prayers in our writings will be direct to our Father God Most High; in order to keep to the highest focal point for all world religions to agree: Just because I happen to be a Roman Catholic person, I am going to use the most important opening way that a Roman Catholic person uses when we start praying, so, the opening prayer or first link in my personal case to our Father Most High is the sign of the cross, which is the sign of the Holy Trinity as this clearly states in the words, The-Father, The-Son and the Holy-Spirit. Of course there are also other ways on how to start praying to God our Father, which is whatever one religious person is using as opening prayer in his own personal religious ways as I have said above. It is also possible for anybody to pray going through smaller deities and saints and we will talk about these prayers in a chapter later on.
But now let me go back to the prayers written above that I have just written and prayed and how I feel, since I have prayed God for forgiveness and reconciliation: I can tell you that I feel more confident that God will hear my prayers, not only for my reconciliation, but also for help and otherwise, and in his own ways through the guiding force of The-Holy-Spirit God will help me write my religious writings, which are the most important part of my writings here. And God would also help me with my personal wants and needs, which they are mostly to keep me safe and healthy and to keep safe and in good health all the members of my family.
So now dear readers allow me just for a moment to talk about my own personal needs, because as a human being I have also my personal needs and this has been one of the main reasons why I started writing about religion, and as you can see I am still writing these religious writings here. Therefore because I need some personal help from God right now, what I am going to write here would be my personal prayer to our Father God Most High, in the hope that God would hear my prayers, and so would help me by granting my earthly requests.
I believe that for God everything is possible to do, even those things that for us humans beings seem impossible to do, and I believe that as God is our heavenly Father He is very helpful, merciful and compassionate towards us, but we have to try to live according to His will and pray to Him if and when we need His help, because this could be the only way for God to help us, so, we should turn to God and praying state our needs, even if what we want and what we need for us humans seems an impossible thing to humanly achieve.
Therefore as I have already said and let me say it again, another of the many reasons why I am writing these religious writings here, it is because nowadays I need really help from God, since only God would be able to help me. I believe that I need God’s help right now, because there is illness in my family and the doctors don’t seem to find a good lasting cure, so, I have no other way but to turn to God and pray with all my heart, my soul and my mind, I am praying God just like most people would pray, but from the bottom of my heart I feel that I have to do more because of my special needs, in order to receive from God what I would like to have, and therefore, these writings that I am writing here are dedicated as my personal prayer to God Most High, in the hope that God would help me and grant me my earthly requests.
May God bless us all?
See you in our next post, where we are going to tell you what we have already published about our religious writings.

My friends answer

St Peter basilica is the center of the Roman Catholic religion and they are the leaders in religions, so I wonder what would they be thinking, if lots of people start thinking the way I and a few of my friends are thinking today about religions being modified.

My friends answer,

My friends answer and reaction to my speech in our last post.

Dear readers to understand this post better you need to read our previous post, there is a time for everything, because this is how my friends answered me after I had finished my long speech or talk. My friends did not answer me straight away, because first they had a long talk among themselves I suppose they were considering what I had just said, and after a while Gino came to me and said: We understand now why you are slow in accepting our help, but really when we look at the way you feel about all this religious stuff and your spiritual circumstances, we know that we have to help you and we are happy to help; beside we are so much interested in your religious writing project that we are ready to help you anyhow.

You see, we have been thinking that just to make things easy for everybody involved, we have decided that I (Gino) and Mark will speak for all our friends when we think that you should know our views on this religious subject. So that it would be easier for you to keep records of what is being said, because if you are really to write this religious theory of yours, which you have in mind to do, you need to keep records of everything that is being said.

Then I said: I agree with you that I have to keep records of all the most important things that are being said, otherwise I will get lost in the jungle of all what is being said to me.

And they kept talking to me about religious possibilities for another hour at least, and as we were talking they started to realize that the only way for me to achieve what I wanted to achieve in my religious writings was that we had to somehow try to modify existing religious beliefs, here I want to point out that I was already saying to them that religious beliefs need to be modified in my writings and not changed altogether, but the first time they became really concerned and shocked from this necessary changes that I was forecasting, for them it seemed that perhaps I had lost my mind, because during their lives they have always believed in the way they had been brought up according to the Christian teaching; so they started to asked me then:

Don’t you think that believing in anything else other than what is written in the Bible would be a sin? And you are saying that you want to move away, or partly move away from the Bible teachings that we have today; are you not?

We are a bit worried about this aspect of your religious beliefs, so we would like to hear how you are going to explain your religious beliefs in such a way that they would still be agreeable to God and the rest of the community?

I know that what I have in mind at this point of time is not going to be easy to convince anyone, I said; and for this reason I am thinking hard what to say or do next.

And they kept talking and asking questions like the following.

If you believe that there is something wrong with the way the Bible has been written; do you have in mind to read and review the Bible? What parts of the Bible do you have in mind to review?

We believe that first of all you ought to make sure what you want to say or do, because as we see it, it could even be a bit dangerous to say what you want to say without thinking about what can happen next. You need to think that for every action there is also a reaction, and sometimes that reaction is not what you want?

Therefore be very careful about what you say. Now because what we are talking here is about God and religions, we council you to pray God for guidance and for help first of all, Mark and Gino said, because you are really going to need a lot of help and acceptance from above to succeed in your attempt about writing this religious theory of yours. But anyhow as I said at this point of time they had started to accept my way of thinking.

Then the meeting was adjourned, as we had spent too much time already on this matter, I was feeling tired and so were my friends, and everyone went to his own home to rest.

-------------------------------

Thinking a prayer to God

Thinking about writing a prayer to God

That night I started thinking whether I really needed to pray God for help, and how I should pray God for help in order to be allowed by God to write my own religious theory, as close as possible to my own way of thinking without upsetting anybody.

After a long time I came up with a possible acceptable prayer; but before I say or write my prayer, I want the reader to know that all the prayers within this book will be prayers directed only to God, as God is the highest and most holy of all existing spiritual entities, therefore to pray to anything else will not make much sense unless there is a special reason for it.

My prayer to God:

With my personal concerns I come to you praying Father Most High, Master of the universe and eternal life giver of all living things, I am praying thee for forgiveness of my sins and reconciliation to thy eternal life force, I am praying in the hope that my prayers would be heard and accepted and then be your humble servant and serve you by writing this religious theory.

Deep in my heart there is this force that drives me to write these religious beliefs, so, I am praying you Eternal Father that you would inspire me and help me, so that I would be able to write those religious writings as humanly as possible according to your will and in such a way that humanity could accept them and use them for the future benefit of mankind.

Father, hear my prayer forgive me my sins and bless me, so that I can be your humble servant and serve you by writing those religious writings. Amen.

I believe that I have said enough in this post, so, I will be continuing with my religious writing with next post called; Prayer of Reconciliation

There is a time for everything

May God help me say the right things?

There is a time for everything

Dear friends, from our own life observations we may have reasons to believe that today we are approaching a time in our lives when religious beliefs and other ways of life in general might need to be changed somehow; so, let me say just a few more words about this present time.

First of all I believe and I am sure that most people would agree with me that there is a time for everything; here I mean that things may continually change and what today seems just perfect for us just the way they are; tomorrow those same things may seem completely out of place, therefore, some adjustment would be required to make them good again and be able to fulfill those things which were supposed to be fulfilled in the first place for the benefit of mankind.

Now that we have started to talk about there is a time for everything, let me go back to the facts that I was telling you in the beginning, because this may be the real reason why I feel strongly that there is a time for everything, since just now I feel that there are things that need to be done now, perhaps this was also the reason why that supernatural event happened to me, because it might have been set in motion by my own spiritual circumstances, so let me say a few more things about it.

Even before the supernatural encounter that I have mentioned before in my hub called, Prayers of reconciliation,(link) Prayers for Reconciliation, 5 I was aware that the world’s religions clashed with each others in many ways, and that it was indeed time for somebody somehow to come up with some new ideas on how to fix those differences, in order to make the world a better place to live in, or at least keep it going the best way we could.

So, I was thinking and asking myself, what anyone could possibly do to improve this unrealistic damaging religious situation that exist today. Sometimes I ask myself how much of these beliefs contributed to my religious vision.

Because I did find myself in this religious dilemma as I have been saying above, I made an effort in order to understand these religious situations better and also for my own good, so, I did some research and read a few religious books, and after reading and thinking a lot about what I had read, by pure logic reasoning I came to my own conclusion of today existing religious situation, therefore you see I have formed my own religious beliefs.

Here I want to point out to you that I have reached my own conclusion by pure logic human reasoning, and I want also to say this, I believe that we (the human race) are now ready and able to understand our own religious situation better than before, and therefore, we are able to do something about it these days, you see before it was a lot harder to do anything religious and otherwise; but today it is a lot easier, because today we are advancing rapidly in all fields of knowledge and learning, thanks to the computer and other electronic devices that bring knowledge to the people at large. So the people in general are now entering the age of knowledge and REASON, and everything that in the future will not be able to stand to our logic benevolent human REASON or reasons, which is the scrutiny of all aspect of life and beliefs will be rejected by humanity.

Now, having reached this stage of understanding about the progress we humans are achieving today, I was looking for some positive signs or news that humanity was doing something about it, in order to rectify this religious problem that exist today; but I was shocked to see that nobody was doing anything worthwhile which could be able to improve the situation.

It was for this reason that I came to the conclusion that perhaps I should be doing something myself, and having started this thinking in mind I started to write a few articles just for myself to see if I could come up with any good ideas on how to achieve something useful, therefore I had already writing some of my own religious beliefs when that supernatural encounter happened. Therefore, in a way I have reasons to believe that perhaps it was just because I had written those religious articles that supernatural encounter happened.

You may ask why I started writing them. And I will tell you that deep within my heart my soul and my mind I was feeling that I had to do something about these existing religious beliefs, because in my mind eyes I felt as if I was called to write what I was writing then.

Here I am not going to be able to write all the reasons why I am writing this last paragraph but what I would like to say is that in a way the human race has left it become overdue, even though at the same time one may say that humanity is advanced so much and we have reached the age of reason, but even though we have reached the age of reason, we are not really using all our mental capacity so to speak.

Dear friends, I have been talking a lot myself, so I have not yet given you the chance to have your say, so now let me only ask you this:

Do you think that by pulling our knowledge together and working together we would be able to suggest how to improve the present religious situation?

Since what we would like to achieve are these things written below:

SINCE WE BELIEVE THERE IS A TIME FOR EVERYTHING;

This could be the right time to start with changing things, therefore;

We would like to set the stage for the entire world to see

When you read these pages we hope that you would agree

That here we are trying hard to find a way to save all humanity

While we are praying God who may be willing to save us for eternity

For this reason I am going to pray God to help me.

-----------------------------------------

I believe that I have said enough in this post, so, see you next post.

Religious discussions

The pope is usually a very wise man, as he represents the Christian wisdom on earth

Manu is a very ancient wise man he belongs to the Indian religions

Religious discussions

Dear readers, we all need to talk to our friends sometimes just to see what they think about your own beliefs or ideas, which could be religious or otherwise; I am saying this because I am sure that you would like to know why I am bringing in my friends to talk about these religious issues. I know you are saying why bring them in when you already know most of the answers about what you want to write and discuss? But you see even me need reassurance and since my friends were willing to help me, we had a meeting to talk these religious things. At this religious meeting Mark, Gino and three other friends came as they had promised.

At the beginning of this meeting we were all behaving just like children, as we all wanted to push above all our own views without listening to each other, so I thought that the meeting was going to be just a waste of time, what else could it be, as we had never had a meeting with an agenda in mind to discuss. But then, my friend Mark soon became aware of my feelings and he said; Look the way we are going about is not going to get us anywhere, if we want to help Frank, and since we are here to help Frank, then, let Frank be the one who talks first. After he states his views we will have plenty of time to state our own views.

So, there and then, I had to put my very mixed thoughts into words, and I didn’t even know how to start in front of my friends, as confusion was on my mind, not because I was really confused, but because what I wanted to say was so complex, just because what I was aiming to achieve at this meeting was not easy, since we had a decision to make about these future religious writings that I wanted to write, therefore everything that I had in mind was complex, but in the end I said:

My dear friends, I can feel within my heart that you are my friends indeed, because you have come forward to help me on this very difficult decision that I am facing today. Now let it be understood before we start that this task of mine is not going to be easy for anyone of us to achieve, so if you still want to help me to succeed in writing my religious theory, which I would like to write, because of my personal spiritual circumstances, then, first of all I will have to tell you that it is going to be hard; because, what I have in mind to write is going to be a very controversial religious subject, so there will be lots of people that are not going to agree with our religious views, but then because of my spiritual circumstances, I feel that I want to do it, because there is a time for everything and this is the right time; this religious time that I am talking about I believe is very close, so, I feel that even now is time to start. Having said that I have also to say to you this, if you are my helper, because people may not like what I am going to write, they could also not like you for helping me. So you better consider that for yourself right now is that understood?

Having warned you of what might happen to us all, now I feel free to say how I see this unusual situation and try to reason what can be done. I believe that it really takes more than a few very wise people to be able to begin solving this problematic religious situation, and whether the existing religious situation could and would be solved nobody knows. So this question arises; in theory are we going to be wise enough to solve it? Or at least to get it started in the right direction? So that one day humanity would be able to solve these religious problems that we see today, as we all know about the atheists and the religious extremists.

I need to say that I have reasons to believe that it all depends on our wisdom and our beliefs, so, let us make it simple to start with, because if we believe that there is a god, then it follows that if we believe in God and religions, then God will help us achieve what we are willing to achieve.

Now let me talk a little about Wisdom, which is something that we are going to need so much, if we are going to solve anything at all, so hereunder are my views about wisdom since we are going to need it.

-------------------------------------------

Wisdom and knowledge

Views about wisdom and knowledge

During our lives many issues arise and some of them are easy to solve, some others are not that easy to solve; for instance, today we would like to solve these religious problems that exist in the world, so how do we go about to solve them? First of all we look at these issues and see that the world religious issues are also spiritual circumstances that may exist in every one of us, therefore we have to be very careful here as they are not easy to solve; the only thing that we can do here is use our knowledge and wisdom if we have any. Now let me explain what wisdom is in my opinion: Wisdom is the mental capacity of a wise person, whom when confronted with a problem is able to solve it better than the average person, because he is wise.

Therefore, his/her wisdom is usually an accumulated knowledge of all those events that this person has lived during his/her life; therefore this wise person is capable somehow of using this accumulated knowledge to his own advantage, therefore when a problem arises he/she would be able to solve it better than the others people.

It is not known why one wise person becomes wiser than somebody else, even though they might have lived most of the same events together, so, we may have to guess at the reasons why, so, let us say that some people are better able to assimilate their accumulated knowledge, perhaps by storing it at the highest level in their own mind and when the need arises they are able to use this accumulated knowledge to their advantage.

Since wisdom (accumulated knowledge) may be stored at one level higher that just logic reasoning, so, it may seem and feel like a sixth sense to the wise man that has it. The wise man knowing what he should do by this intuition of his sixth sense, he also uses logic reasoning just to make sure that everything is all right to back up his wisdom.

Of course there are other possibilities also, so we better mention something about this, some people believe that there is also a small possibility that the wise person may be able to tune into the cosmos, which is thought that it may be able to store the entire accumulated knowledge of everything in the universe just like God, this thought of course gives rise to this question.

Is the cosmos an integral part of God of the universe? Well it may be part of God.

But here we are talking about wisdom and not God. So the definition of wisdom and where it comes from may still remain a mystery to most of us, but that does not matter because we can use wisdom our accumulated knowledge to achieve our goals. Therefore we are going to use our accumulated knowledge, which together with our logic reasoning may be able to come close to achieve our goal. And as I have said before, it seems to me that now the time has come for us to do something about it, I see it and you may see it that there is a time for everything, so let us try and see what needs to be done, and let us study what is around us, so that we may understand better the situation, before we do unnecessary things that could make the situation worse, but anyhow it seems to me that the time has come for us to do something about these religious beliefs; because as we have said there is a time for everything, and this is what we will be writing in our next post. See you soon.

May God guide us to achieve something useful?

Creation of mankind

The Garden of Eden and Adam and Eva

Creation of mankind

Welcome to my post, Creation and creation of mankind. This is the first post that we talk about creation; this post will be followed by other post about creation, the reason for doing this it is because we are going to talk about many religions and perhaps myths of how the world started and how man came about, or created as this has to do with religious beliefs.

This is a study of religions and how they serve humanity; therefore in this article we are trying to compare at least the two largest religions of the world, how they begin and then how they explain creation and the creation of mankind.

So, let us see first of all how these main religions begin, and how they explain briefly the very beginning, the way it is written in their religious books and first of all let us talk about the Bible.

This is our personal view and we feel that the Bible starts in a very bold way and it does not explain how God came about, since God is there ready to create the world, as most of us know the Bible stars thus:

¹ In the beginning God created heaven and earth.

² Now the earth was a formless void, there was darkness over the deep, with a divine wind sweeping over the waters.

³ God said, 'Let there be light,' and there was light.

⁴ God saw that light was good, and God divided light from darkness.

⁵ God called light 'day', and darkness he called 'night'. Evening came and morning came: the first day.

⁶ God said, 'Let there be a vault through the middle of the waters to divide the waters in two.' And so it was.

⁷ God made the vault, and it divided the waters under the vault from the waters above the vault.

⁸ God called the vault 'heaven'. Evening came and morning came: the second day.

----------------

This was the first day of God’s creation in the Bible, God continues to create the rest, and then God created man.

²⁶ God said, 'Let us make man in our own image, in the likeness of ourselves, and let them be masters of the fish of the sea, the birds of heaven, the cattle, all the wild animals and all the creatures that creep along the ground.'

²⁷ God created man in the image of himself, in the image of God he created him, male and female he created them.

²⁸ God blessed them, saying to them, 'Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth and subdue it. Be masters of the fish of the sea, the birds of heaven and all the living creatures that move on earth.'

²⁹ God also said, 'Look, to you I give all the seed-bearing plants everywhere on the surface of the earth, and all the trees with seed-bearing fruit; this will be your food.

³⁰ And to all the wild animals, all the birds of heaven and all the living creatures that creep along the ground, I give all the foliage of the plants as their food.' And so it was.

³¹ God saw all he had made, and indeed it was very good. Evening came and morning came: the sixth day.

Here-under there is a second description of how God created man:

⁵ there was as yet no wild bush on the earth nor had any wild plant yet sprung up, for Yahweh God had not sent rain on the earth, nor was there any man to till the soil.

⁶ Instead, water flowed out of the ground and watered all the surface of the soil.

⁷ Yahweh God shaped man from the soil of the ground and blew the breath of life into his nostrils, and man became a living being.

⁸ Yahweh God planted a garden in Eden, which is in the east, and there he put the man he had fashioned.

⁹ From the soil, Yahweh God caused to grow every kind of tree, enticing to look at and good to eat, with the tree of life in the middle of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

And still there is another creation going:

²⁰ The man gave names to all the cattle, all the birds of heaven and all the wild animals. But no helper suitable for the man was found for him.

²¹ Then, Yahweh God made the man fall into a deep sleep. And, while he was asleep, he took one of his ribs and closed the flesh up again forthwith.

²² Yahweh God fashioned the rib he had taken from the man into a woman, and brought her to the man.

²³ And the man said: This one at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh! She is to be called Woman, because she was taken from Man.

²⁴ This is why a man leaves his father and mother and becomes attached to his wife, and they become one flesh.

This is how the Bible explains creation and the creation of mankind.
