LIVING LIFE SERIES 1

A BO TIEN (武天) MISSION INITIATIVE LAUNCHED ON 28TH SEPT 2010 BY INNER TRUTH NETIZEN 2. THE MISSION IS TO SHOW THE WAY TO HOPE, INNER PEACE AND ULTIMATELY SALVATION FOR ALL BEINGS. THE PURPOSE IS TO SAVE SOULS. IT IS WAY BEYOND NORMAL GOOD WORK LIKE CHARITY AND WELFARE ACTIVITIES. NO ONE SHALL BE SAVED BY GOOD WORKS ALONE BUT BY MORE THAN GOOD WORK. THERE IS NEED TO BE IMBUED WITH THE BASIC DOCTRINE COMMON TO AND BEHIND ALL RELIGIONS AND SECTS. LIVE IN DOCTRINE. DOCTRINE IN LIFE IS PARAMOUNT.

.

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!.

Why we need a saint like Jesus and be like him

No 1317 of Living Life Series 1

There is often the lack of personal touch in life. Everything just ends up as a transaction. That is the problem.

You get something but you need to pay for it or to give something. There is the lack of heart. Where is the personal touch or feeling of being wanted?

The winning edge of life is to have the personal touch and to emphasize on this.

Let not life end up as a transaction in every and anything we do. The personal touch means we need to make the person with us or in front of us feel he is special to us. He stands out from the rest.

The attraction of prophets or saints can only come about if they make us feel special to them. That is exactly what they do.

Thus even if we are transgressors and break all rules and ethics, we will still feel we are special to the saints. Jesus Christ is a sure winner.

He has swept the world like a storm. He makes us feel we stand out and special to him.

The good lord Lord Bo Tien 武天菩萨in his early messages reminded us that if we ask the saint (any saint for the matter), the saint will come to us.

We only need the heart to want him. No mention at all that we be no transgressors or be do-gooders before the saint will be with us.

The good lord added that anything we request from the saint, the saint will know and will try to accede though there is the element of fate which we must reckon with.

Nevertheless, most issues will be no issues with the blessing of saints. Even if issues are big, these will at least become small issues.

If fate is such we must have it, then the saint will open the way for us to see the light. He said that no storm that blows our way will stay forever.

Also be mindful that calm seas do not remain calm forever as well.

In life, he adds, there is the yin and the yang. Every dark cloud has a silver lining. We may add that with clear sky, there will still be areas or pockets where there will be thundery showers.

Life is not perfect. With good that comes our way, there will somehow be disappointments. Who don't have this?

This however should not affect us if we have insight of life. More important is that we must know and know we must that saints like Jesus can make us special to them.

Religion like life should not be centred on transactions. Personal touch is the winning edge of life. We need a saint like Jesus and be like him. There is the personal touch. He makes us special to him. Any saint will do the same. We too must do likewise.

Lest you forget

Do not make the mistake of idolizing any man who tells you about the Word. He is in the same boat as you even if religion refers to him as a religious leader. Mere mention of a religious leader is as good as encouraging idolising of that man. Why must there be hierarchy in religion? Hierarchy is conventional but may end up as liability rather than a necessity or asset. There should be no caste or hierarchy system in religion. No one is to be considered above another in religion. A religious leader or follower is a servant to serve you and not a leader to be idolised. Do not put him on the pedestal and make a monster out of him.

MAY ALL BE WELL AND HAPPY

May all be well and happy. May they have peace. May our departed friends and kins be well, happy and have divine peace. The main writer wishes the best for all for those near and far. Our kins may be far when they had passed on to better lives but they are near though far. He remembers and wishes his parents Mr Siow Soo Koh and Mdm Tay Hung Siang, his uncles and aunties like Mr Tay Koon Huay, his cousins like Mr Tay Chong Sim and his friends like Mr Philip Png well and have abundance of life. May they be rich in spirit for without such ancestors, there will be no posterity - no us and no you and me. They have blessed us and we must blessed them in return forever and ever.
