bursting a friends bubble

Hi My Dear Dreamer,
So you are praying for me? 
Sorry to burst your dream bubble, but I am well entrenched as an Agnostic.  In my life I have been sprinkled as a Baptist, poured on as a Methodist, dunked as an Evangelical and born again, Baptized in the Holy Spirit and even spoke in tongues and had visions. 
All of this I did while honestly seeking God and Jesus. 
But finally I learned that everything is God, and Jesus merely pointed this out to us. 
I have learned that Good and Evil do not exist in the Universe.  They are Man Made and exist within our brains(hearts). 
Most Life on Earth devours other Life in order to exist.  Man devours in anger, pleasure and just out of thoughtlessness. 
Man cannot even own up to His corrupt nature, looking to some Great God to bail Him out.  But our Salvation lies within ourselves.  Earth is indeed the Mythical Garden of Eden.  And we have eaten from the Forbidden Fruit.  But it was never Woman who tempted us.  Another denial by men. 
We are busily destroying this Garden that was ours to care for.  But we blame everyone and everything else for its demise, that is when we even agree that Earth is in trouble. 
We must look within ourselves for our Salvation.  Seeking Jesus only sets us up for another Despot to control and abuse us. 
We need to come to the understanding that collectively we are Jesus, and we can create miracles.  There is no preacher wiser than you when it comes to knowing your heart.  All the great writings and investigations and pontifications are nothing more than smoke and mirrors.  The Truth lies within us.  Why do we buy into this notion that we are so dumb that we need some great leader to tell us how to think?  Even caring Souls like Billy Graham cannot replace my own understanding of what I am.  Teach.  Explore ideas.  Challenge.  But once the alter call goes out we are being duped.  The Alter Call should be, "Enter into your own heart and mind and accept yourself as part of All that exists".  But the preachers turn us away from ourselves and set us up for failure. 
 
End of the Sermon for today.
