https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/The_Golden_View/The world is moving faster and getting more extreme in every direction... Aristotle (my favorite philosopher) would have us seek the middle ground, his Golden Mean of moderation between extremes. To do so, we must first identify the extremes... so here I go.hourly12000-01-01T12:00+00:00https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/The_Golden_View/920130The Covenant of Grace Erases Karma Let me put forth a clarification, to prevent some possible conflicts with my readers. The following is what I consider to be a hypothesis, after gathering a lot of information about the subjects at hand. I am not trying to preach, or to force my opinion upon you....https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/The_Golden_View/919731The first era of Judaism (and therefore also of Christianity) was a era of LAW, as described in the Old Testament. The Mosaic chapters of the Old Testament were the only “Bible” the Jews had. God handed down to Moses hundreds of laws (not just the “Top 10” Ten Commandments) to govern his chosen...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/The_Golden_View/916560I have been away for a few months, but I am back. Other issues have demanded my full attention. Please forgive my absence. I will be catching up now, reading your posts and commenting, to get back into this great society of writers. My last post, several months ago, covered the general belief in...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/The_Golden_View/910418In the last post, I said “In the New Testament, there is a general ‘background’ belief in reincarnation”. I also said that “Jesus was a Jew, and the Jewish community of his time was well aware of, and open to, the idea of reincarnation. This is an undeniable fact of history.” So where, you may...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/The_Golden_View/910247My last post revealed subtle passages in the Christian Old Testament that teach or support karma and reincarnation, even though the Bible was edited and purged by the orthodox Christians (Catholics) to eliminate such teachings. Their literary warfare against reincarnation was dwarfed by their...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/The_Golden_View/910123Let us put aside Jesus in India for now, but we will come back to that issue. In the last post, I promised to reveal passages in the Bible that teach or support karma and reincarnation. There are many such passages, so this will be a long post, and I will not even cover all the passages. If you...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/The_Golden_View/910030Last post, I addressed the manuscript “Life of Saint Issa”, which described the ministry of Jesus in India. I promised to address the incredible doctrinal implications of these teachings. But that is not a simple matter, to be dumped in one’s lap without proper warning and preparation. So now I...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/The_Golden_View/908860“The Life of Saint Issa” is the title of the manuscript Notovitch found in Tibet. There is a good reason that the manuscript was found in Tibet, instead of India. The Muslims invaded India, starting roughly in 700 AD, continuing in relentless bloody waves until the 1700’s, in a 1000-year Indian...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/The_Golden_View/908763Taking a break from the 800-Year French Nightmare, which is somewhat depressing, let us delve into something more uplifting and delightful. This is still what I consider to be under the heading of History, so the closest Blogit category is News & Politics. This post has been inspired by the most...https://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/The_Golden_View/908575After the Catholics destroyed the Cathars in Southern France, their next target for destruction in France turned out to be Peter Waldo and his followers. I can bet, with near certainty, that you have never heard of this. But it was a crucial next step, in the 800-Year Nightmare of France. The...
