Looking for Inspiration
So I have long hair, not to long I can pull it in a pony tail, the sides are shaved so it is all on top. Today a friend of my wife was surprised to find out I had not tattoos. She figured I had them since I admire the art work. Now many people might think tattoos, music, or language. That you would not be able to find inspiration in those things. I think it is all how you look at things if you look at it to be negative then all you will see is the negatives. You look for the inspiration and you will find what maybe was the true message of the author. Now many things can be construed to what any individual wants it to be. Take scriptures for many years they were used to control and manipulate people that trusted their clergy. That led to a revolt for people to learn the truth.
We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly; we also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God.
That is the eighth article of faith in the LDS faith. So we believe in the Holy scriptures as the Bible, Book of Mormon. That gives us two accounts of the teaching of Jesus Christ. Now i believe in Christ was a man far beyond "Jewish Carpenter Zombie".
As far as man controlling people through the faith of the people whom listen to the person. That has been done for thousands of years and still in use to this very day. A person that is not controlling will teach you and ask you to make up your own mind on what was taught. Not force it down ones throat or manipulate the teaching for one's personal devices and goals. I am a rebel at heart and I question everything that is put forth to me. I believe in Christ because I feel it is right and he is guiding his church as he did in old times through the Holy Ghost and inspiration to men called by God and set apart by the laying on of hands.
I am not asking you to change I am asking you to love everyone for whom they are and not what they believe in or do. So please accept and love one another as he has loved us. Charity is the purest form of love on this planet as any human kind can partake in. So if you would like to be charitable please be charitable to your neighbor and your self.
Thank you for reading
