Do you ever notice how religious types are so unmotivated? All of that “restriction” takes its toll on you. We have been so scared for so long that once we try to be good, we are scared that we are going to go the wrong way. I’m here to say we have to trust [...]

The majority of thinking people surely agree that we need a profound transformation to liberate us from chaos, immorality, violence,  and corruption. But, with few exceptions, the general tendency until now has been to look first at the problems we see outside of ourselves; we want to “see the straw in the other’s eye” (Matthew [...]

Many Americans have felt in their conscience a desire to change this country and this world. Sure, we can say we know many good people; we have good friends and family. What we need to ask ourselves is how we can achieve true love to challenge ourselves, our inner core, to expand our love for [...]

Education today is focused on creating a winner-take-all society where those who finish first are rewarded with a monopoly on happiness. That is not the right way to educate children. Education must be a means for creating a world where all humanity can live well together. The philosophies and methods of education that have dominated [...]

What is the quality of life, to you? What is your quality of life? We take clean air and water for granted every day. Even the fundamental, vital things that keep our bodies working, are giving us our life quality. Even if you’re in a jail cell, at least if you get in a work [...]

When we are young, we don’t think much about death. But we become increasingly serious about death as we grow older. This is because death is a gate through which we are inevitably destined to pass.
Why do people fear death? It is because they do not know the purpose for which we are born. Those [...]

When you go to bed, lie down with a beautiful mind. Remove all ugliness from it. In the morning when you wake, come before the deep bosom of God, and then, when you go out to work, you will embark from the throne of God. The spirit world is always around you, listening and attentive. [...]

Who knows how long he or she will live? Maybe tomorrow you will die, at a mere 25 or 30 years of age. Do you have some guarantee from God as to how long you will live? No one has such a guarantee.
A wise person thinks like this: “I have only a short time to [...]

Recently, in Maine, voters voted on proposition 1. The proposition stated: “Do you want to reject the new law that lets same-sex couples marry and allows individuals and religious groups to refuse to perform these marriages?” The majority of the voters voted yes, and with that Maine repealed their law which would have allowed same-sex [...]

When you work, you must love that business, love the products you work with, and, of course, love the people. Always give honor to the other people. God created us, but we are also shaping ourselves and restoring our original value. Return a portion of what you earn to God as a tithe.
When you [...]

The keyword for life is respect:
Respect all things as holy things.
Respect all men as holy men.
Respect yourself as a holy person.
Respect your mind as holy.
Respect your body as holy.
Pay deep respect to all people, no matter what kind of person they may be. As a child, be respectful towards an elderly person. Think over your [...]

“The distinction between the general abstract formula of moral law, and the living, personal, concrete manifestation of God’s Will in our own lives is one of the most fundamental truths of Christianity, for it is the distinction of the letter, which kills, and the spirit which gives life. Jesus who came not to destroy the [...]

We each have concepts we’ve formed over some situation, memory, or experience on an individual level which influence our behavior and views about others. On top of that we have our family history, culture, and national concepts that are collectively embedded in us. These shape our personalities, decisions, and opinions on life in general. We [...]

Richard Wiseman, professor of psychology at the University of Hertfordshire, tracked 5,000 people who made goals and New Year’s Resolutions. 9 out of 10 failed to meet their goals! Are you one of them? To make success more likely:
Break your resolution into a series of small steps; tell your family and friends about your resolution, [...]

True Spirituality must emphasize living for the sake others-selfless service and the denial of fleshly desires. Anything other than this is false. This is the basis for spiritual maturity.

We’re finding volcanoes erupting under the ocean, taking vacations to the moon, and discovering new dinosaur species every day. Scientists have even found a way to turn deadly, toxic waste into oil and glass. But are our priorities in line? Is it imperative to spend our energy on energy? It seems that we are so concerned with [...]

It’s already been over a year leading this, and many times I’m still surprised that I’m heading a Bible study group. Looking back on my life and what disdain I had for Christianity, it boggles me that I am now doing this… But the amazing part is that I love it. I have come to [...]

Freedoms of speech, religion, to assemble… But are we using our life to make a difference in creating a better world? How about in America? America has declined. Unless this nation, unless the leadership of this nation, lives up to the mission ordained by God, many troubles will plague you. God is beginning to leave [...]
