The cross

[diggy]

Translations.

[LORD NOSE]

This mentality is popular in certain circles, not all. Sex and violence. Animal nature. I think we heard of some "people" who lived like this, but it did not turn out right for them in the long run!

it's popular culture - not just a few circles

it's the american way - and america has influencedand fooled the whole world.

every one wants to be macho and this isn't limited to just men

"people" who lived like this, but it did not turn out right for them in the long run!

- but it's not turning out right for anyone

most are blind to just how wrong it is -

it turns out way worst for those who mean well

[Face of the Golden Falcon]

Odin hung from the World's Tree


Moses and the caduceus


Christ on the Cross


Ixion on the Solar Wheel


The Sun God in the middle of the Solar Wheel

The Tree and the Cross are the same symbol.

The only problem is those who wear it thinking that some external savior is going to make their wrong-doings vanish (until of course they do wrong again). If they use that symbol to remind themselves of the constant journey of the Self to uphold Truth then more power to them. It IS a symbol of sacrifice like Sunny said, one must take up their cross daily, that is walk the path of Truth, and again like Sunny said people will throw stones at you for doing that because it shines the light of Truth back in their face.

[LORD NOSE]

but also - those who chose to walk that path are expected to be perfect - if they sneeze, they could be burned at the stake

people expect these men to never fall down and scrape their knees - Muhammad Ali is still the champ even though he doesn't fight any more

Great points.

[THE W]

Maybe you did not pay attention to what I wrote. A cross is used to nail people to it and hold them there til they pass away. Where is the "sovereignty, holiness, justice, goodness, lovingkindness, mercy, and graciousness" in that????? If you see goodness in that, then there's a problem with the way you see.

Is a man being punished for the sins of others fair? What if humans punished some for the crimes of others. Does this sound like justice to you?????

in God's justice, holiness, and goodness he exacted punishment for sin by crushing Christ(isaiah 53).

God's love, mercy and grace is for his elect people who are sinners destined for holiness, whom Christ in their place, took the punishment for their sins.

by this method God displays all these characteristics. God's holiness, justice, and goodness is displayed in punishing sin and his love, mercy, and grace is displayed in taking the punishment for the sins of man.

the cross is the symbol of the mercy of God for those will receive his mercy.

how does one "partake in jesus' flesh and blood" ?

by abiding in Christ by obeying his law.

[LORD NOSE]

by abiding in Christ by obeying his law.

his law is Gods law - he didn't come here to change that, but to be it

New International Version (©1984)
"Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.




they give out wine and hard bread chips that look like casino coins at church instead of obeying the law - throughout the bible, the law is exclusively for the children of israel and not the gentiles -







when you have a people masquerading as "the choosen people of god", and establishing then promoting that as truth, you'll have the majority of earths population being used and abused by said people -





these used and abused people will then begin to feel and act unworthy.

perhaps these used and abused people really are the choosen people of god and those who are pretending to be, are really the satan written about who fooled the whole world into believing they were god

how did these symbols of spliced animals and humans come about ?


can't really come from connecting stars/suns with lines to outline the shapes of these creatures

that shit is really strange - today i'm seeing astrology as a bigger deal than we as people thought it was - it's just so misunderstood. and like everything else sacred, it's been made complex and technical to mislead and discourage


" Associations made with the astrological sign Pisces have shaped centuries of mythology, including the story of Christ. "

[LORD NOSE]

God's love, mercy and grace is for his elect people who are sinners destined for holiness,

i say he connected jew and gentile by sharing his blood and flesh

and that the cross is also the symbol of beast and man connected

[Face of the Golden Falcon]

how did these symbols of spliced animals and humans come about ?

Good question. From my understanding it was through an understanding of the archetypal forces that influence mans psyche. These archetypes are reflected all through out the universe. From the movement of the heavenly bodies to the 7 visable colors of the light spectrum.

you are correct in saying that Christ's law of love is the fulfillment of the law.

gentiles were also included in israel. israel symbolizes God's chosen people not by biology, but by promise.

its for this same reason that Jesus is regarded as the son of David.

and that the cross is also the symbol of beast and man connected

Christ's sacrifice was for those whom God the Father gave to The Son to be raised up to eternal life.

and Christ's salvific work had nothing to do with animals.
