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!.

Believing in one does not mean we don't believe in all

No 1089 of Living Life Series 1



The awesome and heart winning part of a heavenly saint like Lord Jesus is that the saint goes to all length to help men who want help even to extent of personal pain and death. 

Of course before this help can materialize, men must believe that he could help. But, this does not mean believe to extent that they do not give regards to and belief in fellow men, members of family, friends and all other helpful beings here or elsewhere. 

To go to the extent of not believing in all others except the saint in question is not logical and may pit them against the rest of the world. 

The good lord Lord Bo Tien 武天菩萨 says that we can get blessings from a heavenly saint. We can also get blessings from others in the world. Having help from a heavenly saint does not mean we cannot get help from others, be they saints or no saints. 

It also does not mean inaction and leaving everything to the saint. It does not mean we cannot help ourselves and be blessing to self. 

But if in context of ancient times, believing in others might confuse men, then a saint might advise that men believed in no one else but him. 

But in most times and context with civilization and the maturity of thinking of the masses, this may not apply. 

The good lord Lord Bo Tien 武天菩萨 advises that in whatever religion we are in, there is the same inner teaching and knowing all saints and religions, as well as believing in all saints add depth to our understanding of our own saint and the truth he stands for. 

Believing in one does not mean we don't believe in all unless we are in uncivilized days of human sacrifice and the other barbaric practices.
