[The Whole Armor of God]
A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.
Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm. Stand your ground, putting on the belt of truth and the body armor of God’s righteousness. For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News so that you will be fully prepared. In addition to all of these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil. Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere.
-Ephesians 6:10-18

Saturday thoughts
I have somehow, through various fandom follows, ended up on the Jewish side of Tumblr.
I am not Jewish, I am… let’s say a follower of the teachings of Jesus, because I don’t really follow any denomination and very much prefer more progressive takes.
The break downs and teachings and explanations that a lot of people are putting on here for free is amazing. It’s making me see where my thoughts and beliefs are not as loving and open as I would wish them to be and that I have a lot of work to do yet.
I also feel like it’s helping me to understand the teachings of Jesus better because you can’t remove Judaism from Jesus without completely corrupting and perverting what he taught.
So thank you to everyone who is putting the time, effort, mental and emotional labour to post these teachings and spread the true understanding of your faith.
I, for one, am really learning a lot.

Almighty God Kabir
✝️Jesus was the son of god
Hebrews 1:5 – To which of the angels did He ever say, “YOU ARE MY SON, TODAY I HAVE BEGOTTEN YOU”? And again, “I WILL BE A FATHER TO HIM AND HE SHALL BE A SON TO ME”?

“For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and wholesome teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look for teachers who will tell them whatever their itching ears want to hear. They will reject the truth and chase after myths.”

Me and my weird religion
Im syncretic?
But also i dunno what i believe.
I mean *i* know what I believe: just no one else understands it.
I see Dionysus and Jesus as like, the same beings.
I see Dionysus as being a dying-and-reborn god; but also the Horned God; a god of Life and Death; and of Wine and the Orphic traditions.
I see Jesus as a Child of Mary, a dying-and-rising god; a god of wine, death and life, and also a great Teacher who taught alongside Mary Magdalene.
Thats one example? I see Them both as.. the same being yet different.
Mary and Ishtar/The Queen/Hera.
Mary is the Mother Of Jesus, and metaphorically birthed "all" the Gods.
I heavily believe Gods come from.. a lineage? I mean i study History so it makes more sense to me, that a Gods spirit can.. transcend culture and time?
So for me; Mary is fully divine, She is a God, and The Holy Spirit (female) came with Mary (as in, impregnated Her) to give Jesus divine knowledge (Sophia) 🤷 so jesus is mortal, because Mary made Herself mortal for a short time (so Jesus& Magdalene could be half-mortals to preach love and rebirth), but because obviously Jesus is also conceived of Mary (who is human at this point), and The Spirit (the breath, life, what ever, The Dove,) who is fully divine.. it uh..
Yeah its elaborate? But this *makes sense to me*. This is how *my brain works*.
I grew up Catholic, got taught witchcraft and buddhist-ish practices, Wiccan practices. And found Norse and Hellenic paganism by myself. I then came "back" to Mary, Jesus. But i also found out *my own* truth. That Mary is a Goddess; who birthed the Teacher Jesus, and the Teacher Magdalene. I don't care if it dosen't make sense; it makes sense *to me*.
Other than Mary, Jesus and Sophia (who i also see as.. the more primordial force to all knowledge gods? Santa Muerte, Athena, Sophia powers them.), im basically a normal pagan?
What ya gotta remember is that religion and personal belief dosen't have to.. fit into a box? Im a weird blend of all the divine and knowledge i've gathered throughout my life. Im okay with that. If you're not? Keep it to yourself please :)
I understand it might be, and probably is; incredibly weird to people. But it's my belief and it comforts *me*.

Of all the gr8 things, experiences, and lessons I'm taking away from 2023.. my new found relationship with God is by far the best thing from this year. I'm so grateful for the switch in mindsets, the release of trauma and hurt, the settling of my HEART & the PEACE in my mind. I don't worry anymore, I don't doubt myself, I don't allow things out of my control to consume me, & the list goes on but most importantly I follow God's lead. I gave him full control of my life and it's the best thing I could have ever done for myself. I'm a work in progress but with God, I will not fail.🤍

#TrueStoryOfJesus

✝️ God is immortal, but Jesus Christ died
The death of Hazrat Jesus Christ was predetermined. Jesus himself said that one of his twelve disciples will hand him over to his enemies. One of Jesus Christ's special disciples was Judas Ixaroti, who handed over his Guru to his enemies for the greed of thirty rupees.
(Matthew 26:24-55 page 42-44
