The Living Life Series is dedicated to Lord Bo Tien (武天菩萨). The doctrine is in His image. The image is the doctrine. He who sees, understands and effects the doctrine sees and knows Him. He who does not see, know and effect the doctrine sees not and knows not the saint even if the saint or His image is beside him. The far may be near and the near may be far. Let the doctrine and the saint be part of our life. The lord saint in your life can be any heavenly saint of any religion, sect or school. The doctrine of truth is behind all and this is the Inner Truth that leads all (regardless of their religious affiliation or even if none) to inner peace and heaven on earth here and now and not just in the after life. The ideal worship and devotion is to know and effect the doctrine of God and the saints. The best gospel is the gospel of life. We learn from our life and the lives of others. The true temple is the world we live in. The sky is the roof of the temple and religions and sects are the pillars of the temple. All under Heaven are in the temple. Needless to say that all the saints we know are in this temple. Ji Gong Posat too is no exception. The whole wide world and web is the temple and must be regarded as a sacred place --- a temple for living and learning. It is more important that everyone that counts plays a role in this universal temple if due focus is to be given to the Mission of Heaven. Men must not be distracted by the agenda of men and end up serving the mission of man. That would be a far cry from the Mission of Heaven. We worship God and saints, not man however good that man may be. There should be no hero worshiping or idolizing of man whether he is a charismatic pastor, priest, monk, medium or lay leader. We don't even idol worship the image of any saint but reflect on what the image stands for. - the doctrine in the image. Omitofo 阿弥陀佛!.

Some like it hot. Some cold. So is this wrong?

No 950 of Living Life Series 1



Some like it hot. Some like it cold. Some like it lukewarm. Don't tell me that you would insist that it better be this or that. 
from wikipedia
That is the problem with some men, more so in religion. When men have a choice to differ and to be on their own, why must some men simply insist that others do their bidding when God and saints adopt a hands off approach? 

Some men simply think others cannot think for themselves when God allows men to be even wrong. They cannot control and manage their children, let alone manage other men as though these other men are little children. 

They feel insecure and lonely. They want others to do as they do and to believe as they believe. Even those already in the same house of God may not see eye to eye and may splinter off and go separate ways to start new sect or denomination. They succeed and have God's blessings. 

For goodness sake, be realistic and know that men may not do the bidding of other men just out of faith for they will end up responsible and facing the consequences of what they do. They will learn from what others tell them and they decide what to do, not let others decide for them. 

Life is full of learning opportunities at every turn and corner, and with every view and word of fellow men. Life is the living gospel. This is echoed by all saints and the good lord Lord Bo Tien 武天菩萨 is no exception. 
Some like it hot. Some like it cold. So is this wrong? What can the matter be? The matter cannot be with God. The matter can only be with some men who think they can think for God and think for other men.
