On the way to Maha Oya. We are helping out with a small school in the east, and some widows in the karadiyanu and Kithula areas. Maybe you should come next time. http://sites.google.com/site/rebuildinglivesnow/

Jesus says hi
For billions of years, fundamentalist Christians have been held captive by the greatest dilemma that ever existed. Do, people who do not know Jesus Christ, fry, like a sausage in margarine? Of course. Not. But then, if it wasn’t necessary for him to have died, why did he die?
I don’t know, but here is a page that gives some answers:
“1. if you believe in Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior
then you do not go to hell
2. if you do not believe in Jesus Christ
and you have not heard the gospel or do not understand it
then you are judged by the natural law (or by the mosaic law
if you are a Jew.) the royal law ("you shall love your neighbor
as yourself") fulfills all the requirements of both the mosaic
law and the natural law (according to Galatians 5:14).
The Natural Law is approximated in the Ten Commandments
(see Exodus 20:1-17) together with The Great
Commandment (see Matthew 22:35-40). The Royal Law,
so named by James, is "You shall love your neighbor
as yourself" (see Galatians 5:14, James 2:8).
The Mosaic Law is all the Law of the Old Testament.
3. if you do not believe in Jesus Christ
and you have heard the gospel and understand it
(but you reject it nevertheless)
then you go to hell
. . . unless Jesus decides to take mercy on you, which He as Judge,
is allowed to do.

It gives biblical verses for all points at the link.
I think God is living, and it’s his Holy Spirit who makes people believe, and also live up to his commandments. “I am the vine, you are the branch, without me, you can do nothing. If anyone remains in me, and I in him, he will bear much fruit (spiritual, could be taken as love). I know God has lots of love btw.
My definition of reality btw:
Also, I think I figured out what reality is : Everything, every thought, every atom that ever, ever happened in the past + everything, every birth, every smile, every rape, every thought that is happening now= reality.
The more of these you know, the better your understanding of reality.
Please tell me what you think about the post on top.
