i am thinking of all the times .


i would apply the bible . and get the blessing the bible would say

but it wasn't so for others . and it still isn't what bugs me is .

i didn't know what i know now . and nobody else did either .

i was in such a place of danger . and no one could tell me .

i didn't understand what i am discovering now .

but now i don't know what to think of it all .

of these posessed people with duplicated environemnts

who then project into others who think they are being attacked by demons

who then project and prject and project until no one knows why these thoughts happen and no one knows why "in Jesus name" no longer has the power it did before the 1000 years AD

but i was just speaking of myself . i know people do get posessed by demons still . its just i know some other things happen too . which are like proxys that can change a lot on the internet . and the computers don't even know they're infected or being used in that way . and the same it is with the people being used that way . so if it is written "may they be one as we are" and it is written "do you not know that i am in the Father and the Father is in me?" then it was revelaed this kind of oneness is possible for all humans .

so then i guess its just for me to deal with this information . because this subject matter makes little sense to anyone else .

thank you for the open space to express . ]]> Michael Collum Michael's BlogWed, 13 Jan 2010 03:07:32 -0600 http://papashome.com/read.php?7,847,847#msg-847 http://papashome.com/read.php?7,847,847#msg-847

Revelation 13:1

1And the dragon stood on the shore of the sea.

Revelation 13:2-3

And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. He had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on his horns, and on each head a blasphemous name. 2The beast I saw resembled (Mammals) a leopard, but had feet like those of a bear and a mouth like that of a lion. The dragon gave the beast his power and his throne and great authority. 3One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been healed. The whole world was astonished and followed the beast.

Daniel 7:3
Four great beasts, each different from the others, came up out of the sea.

Daniel 7:4
"The first was like a lionChimpanzee, and it had the wings of an eagle. I watched until its wings were torn off and it was lifted from the ground so that it stood on two feet like a man, and the heart of a man was given to it.

Daniel 7:23
"He gave me this explanation: 'The fourth beast is a fourth kingdom that will appear on earth. It will be different from all the other kingdoms and will devour the whole earth, trampling it down and crushing it.

That my friends,

is Evolution .

Papa said in the shack "ritual is nothing" . so i'll go back to the Qu'ran as the Spirit so leads . i'll look into the Catechism today .

in the Apostolic Constitution i noticed something interesting:

"A catechism should faithfully and systematically present the teaching of Sacred Scripture, the living Tradition in the Church and the authentic Magisterium, as well as the spiritual heritage of the Fathers, Doctors and saints of the Church, to allow for a better knowledge of the Christian mystery and for enlivening the faith of the People of God. It should take into account the doctrinal statements which down the centuries the Holy Spirit has intimated to his Church. It should also help to illumine with the light of faith the new situations and problems which had not yet emerged in the past. "

They don't rely only on 1) the scripture but also on 2) their particular tradition 3) the group of people appointed (by whom? i will not say ;) ) to communicate God's will to the church (Magisterium) 4) as well as what was contributed by the experts who were inspired by the Holy Spirit in the past .

Now, even though this is a closed model to a particular group of people who were born into certain types of families who would be ahead of the game enough to even begin to be eligible for this kind of position . it gives a good picture of a family that learns from past lessons and still believes that the Holy Spirit talks to the people called in Jesus name . The way in which it is chronicled

"Given 11 October 1992, the thirtieth anniversary of the opening of the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council, in the fourteenth year of my Pontificate."

is very book of kings .

of course as per their revelation Mary is given central focus in the conclusion and Jesus is not mentioned by name but as "the incarnate word" can't say i'm much of a protestant anymore . i tend to emphasize Jesus Christ of Nazareth . and i'm sure their forefathers did also ;) the idea of the revelation of God not being controllable is the reason why the Catholic Church still writes as if they are writing scripture .

Whether that be true or not . is up to the eye of one filled with light to discern .

Since i don't mind the idea of people learning stuff that cannot be seen from scripture exclusively .. but from the Father as Jesus so learned "everything" this doesn't bug me as much .]]> Michael Collum Michael's BlogWed, 23 Sep 2009 20:23:04 -0500 http://papashome.com/read.php?7,98,98#msg-98 http://papashome.com/read.php?7,98,98#msg-98
As with anything "the ezekiel syndrome" can become an unbalanced thing in itself . one may find the following things beneficial to keep in mind:

1) God told Ezekiel to only tell a person of his wrong doing "once" .

2) After giving the long list of things Ezekiel must do God told Ezekiel
to hide so he wouldn't see what people were doing .

3) Truth is to be spoken in Love

4) According to Jesus (Matthew 18) We inform someone of wrong done against
us when it has been done to us .

5) According to the proverbs meddling in other people's business is like
pulling a dog by the ears . thus not advisable .

6) Ezekiel was one man . who was commissioned to do a unique ministry .

7) James 3:13-18 is a good pasage for discerning if it is God leading you
to speak or if it is your own ego impulsing you to speak .

This is what i have found helpful . Thoughts?]]> Michael Collum Michael's BlogWed, 23 Sep 2009 20:17:30 -0500 http://papashome.com/read.php?7,64,64#msg-64 http://papashome.com/read.php?7,64,64#msg-64

I find it weird that people say . oh the bible is the word of God, but denounce the stuff that nurtured the people who decided what would be in the book and what wouldn't .

There is a lot of stuff that was used in the beginning of the christian faith that would have been helpful earlier in my walk .

For example the Gospel of Thomas (not to be mistaken as the Childhood Story of Jesus also attributed to Thomas) strings a number of wisdom sayings and sayings of Jesus together . the document was in heavy use before canonization and was even translated into other languages like the synoptics (Mark, Luke, Matthew) when communicating the good news cross culturally . The Gospel of Thomas appears to be of a similar mindset as the John Gospel .

Thomas uses a metaphor that is kinda hard to grasp kinda like the John of the John Gospel uses high lofty language to get his message across regarding being born again . Thomas touches on the idea of "women becoming as men" and "men as women" which is a very literal interpretation of Galatians 3:28 with strong emphasis on the "no longer" and an application of the discourse in Luke where Jesus accepts Mary of Bethany as His disciple and goes so far as to say "she has chosen the better thing (vs getting back in the kitchen) and it will not be taken away from her." Back then it was customary that a disciple would become a rabbi at length . If it weren't for the Gospel of Thomas and the other texts that were in high usage prior to canonization . who knows what kind of bible we would have .

In light of this i see the The New Testament part of the christian bible as a finished product after 300+ years of spiritual research .

A question that comes to mind is what agenda does one have . if one "blesses the fruit but curses the tree, or curses the fruit but blesses the tree" what is their agenda?

The Gospel of Thomas would have been helpful much much earlier when i was just figuring things out because it deals with some of the more esoteric parts of the synoptic gospels and takes them "too literally" and gives great insight to those who might actually think this way . I get the impression the early faith took Jesus at His word way too literally for today's western rationalistic society . Perhaps a change is needed?

All such changes begin within, for from the heart does one interpret with their mind . and out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks . so as it was then so it is now . the answer lies in Jesus who changes peoples lives and hearts when they trust in Him with their complete totality . I trust in Jesus to bring such changes in me . and then ripple what reflects His nature outward .]]> Michael Collum Michael's BlogTue, 22 Sep 2009 05:19:31 -0500
