• Jesus' disciples—Himself and the 12—are astrological (12 signs of the Zodiac, and Jesus in the center representing the sun).
We are all just setting suns, shining light for the brief day in which we rise. Some of us get a longer day than others. Some of us shine brighter and warmer on our given day. And some of us get eclipsed by our ego and just spew darkness during our rise. But when we set, we set. And someone else rises.

What if a person chose to follow Buddha instead of Yeshua?
Another thing intrigues me about Yeshua. Was Yeshua really married to Mary Magdalene and is there really a royal bloodline (from Yeshua)?edit on 4-10-2010 by sphinx551 because: (no reason given)

We already seen what happens to you, you dont want to know
I've seen what happens to me, too. However, you must be looking through the wrong looking glass if you assume I don't want to know. Here's the great big reality of what will happen to me:
I will continue to age, and along the way I will make some new friends. Among these friends I will teach several spiritual insights which will help them come to terms with their own morality. Then, one day I will die. At my funeral will gather everyone who I have ever touched, or inspired. After my funeral my body will slowly decompose while my essence transcends language and contemplation to become something beyond both words and thoughts.
but it cause of your actions and things you messed with that you shouldnt have
Nothing is "off-limits" to a sentient being who exists to question and challenge every pre-conceived notion of what reality is. That being so, I regret nothing, and feel no guilt for past misadventures. Tales of my own misdeeds affect me in no great way, as I have come to terms with who I am, what I've done, and where I am headed. It seems as though you still see everything in terms of "good" and "bad" objectively. You know no sense of subjective existence. What a pity.
This is possible to be changed if you stop being such a self serving person and begin to understand what Christ truely represented
Christ is a plagiarized allegorical representation of the solar Messiah in the age of Pisces, meant to represent the life of the sun throughout a year. And then an aeon (age). Jesus is a mythological hybrid of pagan allusions, metaphors, and myths all used by Rome, and later empires, for political control. Subjugation of the masses is what Christ really is.
instead of argueing with One carrying the Authority of God 'creator' Adonai
Maybe this Adonai made you... but if such is so—and judging by your own internal inconsistencies and short-comings— then he makes faulty things. Therefore, I'd rather not let an inept workman have his way with me.
Thanks, but no thanks.
All teachings past to the world are of the same origin
Wrong. Teachings evolve over time, as all things do.
Animism, paganism, polytheism, henotheism, monotheism, Hermeticism, occultism, theosophy, UFOlogy, fundamentalism, cult psychology, biology, astronomy, divination, spirituality, spiritism... they're all different belief systems because they're not the same in origin, intent, or destination.
Surely someone so wise as yourself would have done research on the evolution and history of religious, spiritual, and ethical teachings.
Or maybe not...
The rest is pseudo-biblical jargon, and mystic word-play without any substantial importance, or meaning. Satan, Yahweh, God and the Devil, angels, densities and the threat of limitless torment and torture! Oh no! Go ahead, ACB, prove the existence of God and the Devil. Then I'll listen a little more to your cryptic fire and brimstone speak.
'til then, why don't you open a book, or go talk with a priest, or sit down at a temple and listen to some monks discuss their faith. You might learn something!

To all of those conversing about what 'christ' is....
Its a level we are all to reach. Jesus showed us ways to reach this, through finding the inner nature of the Holy Spirit, in turn, living for the life of spirit over the life of flesh. This is much more then a choice, it must be understood WHY we are to do this. It cant be forced, things forced are not understood.
Much of what is acclaimed to Jesus is misunderstood. In saying 'through me' is saying....through what I have done. Walk in my footsteps, Ill show you the way. As he said 'pick up your own cross (for no other can carry it for you ) and 'follow me'.
Jesus was no different then any of us....WE are to go on and do better things....We are the ones that MUST move mountains.
Love to all!

He was more empowered than we. I truly believe he came from Beyond, already his Higher Self, to teach us, and show the way out of this cosmos, to pass the tests. That he came probably several times, and his message is one of Love. But he also said, that which he did we could do and greater.
I also believe in the Christ consciousness. That this message is not restricted to earth, but is a cosmic one as well.
Also, the reincarnation issue cannot be attribute to what Yeshua taught as there are different scrolls, and I even read a thread yesterday here, about the language of the Judaic religion being altered from its original verb form, which changes the meaning. That religion seems to be controlled a great deal, and manipulated. I have a strong feeling that what we're reading today is not anything like what was said or meant.edit on 5-10-2010 by Unity_99 because: (no reason given)

I have felt this from few perspectives and contemplate which is Truth. I have viewed from Dreams/Visions of the Catalyst event's to come. However as much as ET_MAN has taught me well, to be Physically/Emotionally/Spiritually prepared everyday as anything can happen as a result to consequence of each Thought/Choice/Action.
When I feel my low points in life, I always attempt to question WHY do I feel like this, WHY am I tormenting myself like this, WHAT will I do to CHANGE, HOW will I be the BETTER person, WHERE do I strive to go in LIFE???
And the list goes on and eventually I stop living in self-pitty and get up and do something about it.

If He was no different from us, why could He do miracles and we can't? Why did He make wild claims like He would sit at the right hand of God and come in the sky?
And if He really didn't do those miracles, why would any Jew abandon their faith to follow Him?
Originally posted by 547000
Still, if He was just a bum with dreams or grandeur, I don't think people would follow Him. There had to be something that happened to convince the Jews of the time to stop believing in Judaism, and something that convinced the apostles to throw their lives away preaching about Him.
