Freedom from god's oppression can be had!
It's within your power to do so!
I've observed Christains for a long time, and during that time
I've never made a commitment to your god of any kind, nor have I
placed any measurable amount of faith in him. Instead I have observed
your people for the longest period of time, tolerating their abuses
and idiosyncrasies in an effort to find out more about them and their
god.
...you are putting yourself under submission to I have no idea what, you
are going in blind, led by a book to who knows "WHAT",
but your book describes it in Psalm 2:11 & 12. I've presented this
to several other Christians who's response will be like your own,
and they see the verses thru rose colored glasses. Believe me everyone,
those verses do not appear to a deprogrammer the same way they appear
Christians.
You CAN break free of this mental disease known as faith,
and no matter how real he seems to you at the moment, he is a
mental construct in YOUR MIND ONLY, and has no real substance
in this world!
Your faith is no more than a form of mental conditioning that you have
imposed upon yourself, hence it is within your power to be free of it.
This is not a suggestion that you live your life without restrictions or
morals, but it puts the responsibility for living a moral life squarely
with you. Your god is NOT a moral god; Ted, have you seen me, or anyone
for this matter, threatening to end someones life if that person doesn't
agree with me and do as I require ? No Ted, you' won't see this ever...
but Ted, your GOD does this very thing...
Psalm 2:11 & 12 describe a raging psychopath, and in exodus 34:6 & &,
describing yet another side to this "god" that is often associated
with the psychopaths need for recognition...
Psalm 2:1 Why do the nations rage, And the peoples meditate a vain thing?
Psalm 2:2 The kings of the earth set themselves, And the rulers take
counsel together,Against Jehovah, and against his anointed, saying,
Psalm 2:3 Let us break their bonds asunder, And cast away their cords
from us.
Psalm 2:4 He that sitteth in the heavens will laugh: The Lord will have
them in derision.
Allow me to ask of you; whom among you believes that slavery is a
good thing? Whom among you believes it is acceptable? Whom among you
believes it a laughing matter, as your "god" does? Can you not see a
pattern of wickedness with your god ?
Who among you would NOT fight to be free if you were enslved by
someone ? Read these verses carefully, for they describe enslavement of
a people....by YOUR god...
Psalm 2:5 Then will he speak unto them in his wrath, And vex them in
his sore displeasure:
Psalm 2:6 Yet I have set my king Upon my holy hill of Zion.
Psalm 2:7 I will tell of the decree: Jehovah said unto me, Thou art my
son; This day have I begotten thee.
Psalm 2:8 Ask of me, and I will give thee the nations for thine
inheritance, And the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
Psalm 2:9 Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; Thou shalt dash
them in pieces like a potter's vessel.
Psalm 2:10 Now therefore be wise, O ye kings: Be instructed, ye judges
of the earth.
Psalm 2:11 Serve Jehovah with fear, And rejoice with trembling.
Psalm 2:12 Kiss the son, lest he be angry, and ye perish in the way,
For his wrath will soon be kindled. Blessed are all they that take
refuge in him.
Exo 34:6 And Jehovah passed by before him, and proclaimed, Jehovah,
Jehovah, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in
lovingkindness and truth,
Exo 34:7 keeping lovingkindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and
transgression and sin; and that will by no means clear the guilty,
visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the
children's children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation.
You are in a cult, members of a very large, loosely knit cult.
No appearances of your god have been made, only rumors of them spread
throughout this "community" of followers.
You CAN come out of the delusion, but you must want to be free
of the disease, and believe me, GOD is NOT able to kill you for
doing so, and he won't be sending you to any hell after death.
Believers! Your god is a mental construct, he is only as powerful as
your mind makes him; no more so than that!
Why give him power to terrorize you ? Turn your back on him and leave!
