I do not belong to a church. I was raised as
an Episcopal. I have seen a lot of hypocrisy in the churches I have
been to and I have been to many different churches.
Over the years I have strayed from the Church. I have sinned many
times and I am no angel now.
My sins are between God and me. I am trying to help others help themselves
and I think that I am doing a pretty good job of it. I feel that I
do have God's help and that He is supporting me in my endeavor. I know
that some of those who come to the Castle of Hope for Lost Souls disagree
with some of what I say and some of what I do. Some disagree
with most of it. I have been called the anti-christ, a traitor to my
race and a few other things I do not want to repeat at this time.
I have been threatened but I will not stop my work. I do not scare.
The Castle of Hope for Lost Souls is non-denominational. I
do not push my religious views on others. When I deal with prisoners
and addicts I do not bring religion into it until they do. I am not
in the business of converting people to any religion or church. I
am in the business of helping people who are lost find themselves. In
most cases we turn to God for help. For the Christians we look to Christ.
Most non Christian religions recognize Christ as a prophet and they
do look to his teachings. I do try to help people live a way
of life that Christ would want them to.
I think that God looks at our lives as a whole when our time comes but
he also looks at what is in our hearts at the end when our time in
our bodies ends. Does a person who is quilty of murder go to
heaven when he is executed? No one really knows but I have a
feeling that it depends on how they live their lives after the murder.
I am not the same person I was 59 years ago or even 4 years ago.
I went through a complete change on 1/1/2000. I started over
again. I have learned over the years that things happen that are hard
to take.
People close to us come into our lives and go out of our lives. Our
memories keep them close even when they are gone. My father passed
away a few years ago but he is still in my heart. My mother misses
his body but she knows he is still there for her. Many times
when a couple are as close as my parent were when one goes the other soon
follows. The one left behind want to join the other. If they
only looked in their heart they would know that that person is still
with them. My father is with my mother. You can ask her, my brother,
my children or me. We all know he is there. We felt his presence
when we visited my mother. When I was in an accident my car was totaled
and I was not hurt.
My father came to
me and saved my life.
Many things in the bible have been proven to be true by scientist. Many
say that the only explanation for life and the universe is a supreme being.
Christians are not in the majority but the majority of the religions
believe in Christ. Almost all believe in God (no matter what they call
Him)
I feel that The Castle of Hope for Lost Souls is a project given
to me by God. All of the obstacles in my life, all of the good and
bad events of my life led me to where I am today. I want to stay on
this earth as long as I can but I am not afraid of death. I know that our
soul lives on when our body goes. We are our souls not our bodies.
Many of you have seen cartoons where the character has a devil and an angel
arguing about what to do. That really happens.
Our personality, logic and reason are part of out soul. Our instinct
is part of the body located in the brain. When our behavior gives
way to addiction or evil it is the instinct part of the brain that takes
over. The soul fights to regain control. I have known some very
bad people but when I get to know them I see the good in them where the soul
has regained control. In most cases a traumatic experience will give
the instinct the edge.
In order to get the soul back in control we have to look inside and find
ourselves. Sometimes we need help. We need someone who sees
the good in us to show us the way but we are the ones that have to make
the changes. Once we have found ourselves and start helping ourselves
we find that God is there to help us.
Cryogenics will not work. When our body dies the soul lives on. Our
body is frozen and when the cure is found they bring the body back to life
and cure the problem that did us in. The problem is that we are long
gone. The body will only work on instinct. The ability to reason
went with the soul. What is left is on the level of the lower animals.
The soul makes us human.
Another thing that we must all realize is that we are all Gods children.
He does not love anyone more than anyone else. To God we are
all equals. We are all different but we are all equal. We all
came from the same beginning. We are all related. I am sure that
if you look at DNA you will find very little difference between the races.
Whether you believe in the bible's account of the beginning of mankind
or in Darwin's we all come from the same two who started it all.
Why don't we all start acting like family? Well some families do
not act like families.
Life is what you make of it. Some day you will realize that there
is a reason for everything that happens to us. Instead of letting bad
event ruin our lives we must learn from them and find good in them.
You can overcome anything if you try very hard. I look at the
innocent people in prison. These people are in a living hell but many
survive because the refuse to let the injustice system beat them. Others
go the other way. It is not just being strong but also making the
best out of the worst.
I love life and I love those who live. That is what God wants us
to do. That is why Christ died for us.
Love yourself, Love life and Love God and God and others will love you.
Thank you for reading this and I hope that it will make you think.
I know that many will disagree but if you look hard even those who
disagree with part of what I say will agree with part also. Just maybe
a light will go on in your head and something in this will help your
in your life.
