HEAVEN'S TRAP
So Jesus was sent by the Father to teach us about getting to heaven or the coming kingdom of God, heaven for me is such a disconnect from the teachings of Jesus here on earth. So why the obsession with Heaven and Hell in this so-called church age, in the churches desire to be superior to the Jew, they abandoned earth to will full religions while the people were trapped in a heavenly mind trap. So the church used the tools of man, that is the tools of fear and violence, whether real or hell’s torment. Becoming more powerful in this world while losing heavens desired spiritual influence, were God’s focus has always been “for God so loved the world.” So in the Messiah’s first earthly visit those who should have embraced Him were bound to The Law and Temple which trapped and closed their minds. We have become in my mind, equally trapped to the Doctrines of Men and the Dreams of Heaven, and earth be damned along with everyone you doesn’t adopt our interpretations. Jesus has become the end all and be all, Father who? as we pray to Jesus or is it God? or does it matter? we are so confused but then maybe that was the plan all along. If as Jesus taught the teachers of his day spoke with a voice that was not the Father’s, what makes us think we are immune from the same arrogance. Which then confuses His great sacrifice and the Fathers great love for us through Him and by Him, towards Himself (The all in all Father God). It further confuses our theology so that we in effect abandon the God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob for a creation of a church that despised the faith of the Jews, for Popes, Calvin, Luther and the whole lot. Look the middle wall of partition is down as the writer of Hebrews taught between Jew and Gentile, not so that we turn our backs on the Jewish voice but embrace it with the all the liberty grace gives us. Heaven I am afraid has become “The Great Trap” and we are so busy looking for “The Great Escape” we are missing the Kingdom that is Coming and unfolding around us everyday.

Heaven, Earth, or whatever….
These are all just destinations.
The point is not where we are, but who we are and what we are becoming
