The pursuit of holiness is not a pull-yourself-up-by-your-own-bootstraps approach to the Christian life.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Human Potential388 views0 answers0 votesFrederick William Faber said: “Happiness is a great power of holiness.

The part that I like the most from Buddha’s teachings and from His Holiness, The Dalai Lama, is that the most powerful weapon is to not attack, to be able to have self-control.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Human Potential397 views0 answers0 votesMother Angelica said: “Every Christian who strives for holiness of life experiences dryness of soul. It is to most people a heart-rending experience. It is a paradox, for the soul becomes confused when it realizes the harder it strives the further away Jesus seems to be.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Human Potential371 views0 answers0 votesJames E. Faust said: “Holiness is the strength of the soul. It comes by faith and through obedience to God’s laws and ordinances. God then purifies the heart by faith, and the heart becomes purged from that which is profane and unworthy. When holiness is achieved by conforming to God’s will, one knows intuitively that which is wrong and that which is right before the Lord. Holiness speaks when there is silence, encouraging that which is good or reproving that which is wrong.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Human Potential332 views0 answers0 votesShunya said: “If you want to help a guilt-ridden person, don’t act holy and pure around them. Everyone has a dark side, Be true, Be vulnerable. Be normal. Be human.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Human Potential311 views0 answers0 votesR.C. Sproul in his book, Choosing My Religion, wrote: “If you don’t delight in the fact that your Father is holy, holy, holy, then you are spiritually dead. You may be in a church. You may go to a Christian school. But if there is no delight in your soul for the holiness of God, you don’t know God. You don’t love God. You’re out of touch with God. You’re asleep to his character.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Human Potential370 views0 answers0 votesIs holiness an end in itself, or a means to an end? Can Creator tell us how Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol enhance and empower the pursuit of holiness, and most important, remove the obstacles to the practical attainment of holiness for both the individual and humanity itself?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Human Potential336 views0 answers0 votesWhat enabled Jesus to heal people so quickly, to bring about a clear miracle?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Divinely Inspired Messengers452 views0 answers0 votesLong wrote about the kahuna interpretation of Christ’s crucifixion. “His weakness had been self-righteousness, the cardinal sin of the highest spiritual level. He had been held back by his desire to enjoy the fruits of his labors.” His pride had betrayed him and “laid him open to obsession by certain spirits who were evil because they forced on him the emotions of pride which were their own besetting sins in life. … As the curtain falls on the last scenes of the drama of crucifixion, all seems to be lost. And on the cross the man who had worked miracles called on the Father for help, and his prayer was cut off – it was not delivered and not heard (because of the blocking done by evil spirits obsessing him. Having gained unnoticed entry on account of the build-up of personal pride during his ministry). He suffered the most agonizing of deaths.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Higher Self416 views0 answers0 votesA practitioner asks: “With some divine encouragement, I’m wondering whether Christians might be able to shift their perception of Jesus’ journey on the cross from focusing on him as one who came here to become a sacrificial victim for the purpose of canceling any future need for animal sacrifices for forgiveness of human sin, to seeing him as a divine emissary who modeled for humanity the art of forgiving and requesting healing for one’s perpetrators, even while he was in the process of being killed by them on the cross, such that they might see this as a reason to begin focusing on praying for the healing of all the perpetrators of evil in the world as their primary mission in the world. Can Creator give us a tutorial on whether this would be a viable approach for incorporation in the LHP and, if so, how Creator and Jesus Christ would view this potential strategy?”ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Religions645 views0 answers0 votesA viewer asks: “I would appreciate if you would do some investigation as to the authenticity of the Shroud of Turin. There is fascinating discussion and discovery over the centuries about this artifact, and questions as to whether it is indeed the image of Jesus Christ imprinted on the burial cloths. Carbon dating indicates that it was in fact more like sometime between the years 1260 to 1390. We do know that there are deceptions in this world on both sides of many issues. It does seem to have the qualities of a miracle, although the reproductions of the face look like an older man and no physical damages evident, rather than someone who was 33 at the time of death and scourged and tortured prior to death. Can Creator clarify whether the shroud is indeed genuine as the religious artifact many hope and believe it is?”ClosedNicola asked 4 years ago • Religions877 views0 answers0 votes
