Just And Merciful God-Hilary L Hunt MD

cropped-img_0360-1-e1509913859388.pngDo You think God is just and/or merciful? I think God is neither, and here’s why. In my book, Wilderness Cry, I define the essence of God as ‘A perfect Rational Being’. That Prefect Rationality demands  Perfect Love. Perfect Love means ‘acceptance without conditions’.

Consider this—if God were truly Just, not a single person who ever lived could possibly attain heaven. Every last one of us would be condemned to hell, no matter how ‘holy’ we pretend to be. If God were truly ‘merciful’, he would be playing tricks on us—he created each of us with a selfish nature, so if he is the culprit, how can he blame us—he made us that way.

God is neither ‘just’ nor ‘merciful’—God is Perfect Love. And that means very simply that God accepts us exactly the way we are, no matter how evil we may seem to each other. That ‘acceptance’ became visible through the death of Jesus, a mirror image of both God and us.

IMG_0082God made his universe to be %100 evil (selfish) for a very specific reason—so he could die in atonement and become ‘Perfect Love’. God actually ‘needed’ a love object equal to the ‘love task’—what better love object than an entire universe/s of evil (selfishness) which he, himself created.

Consider this; selfishness demands ‘satisfaction’ of needs—that satisfaction demands ‘change’—‘time’ is a measure of change. If there were no change, there would be no time—the universe would be ‘frozen in eternity’ which, by definition, is a state of being without change. God would have no ‘vehicle’ for showing ‘perfect love’. With his ‘super-genius’  mind, Jesus saw through that principle, and since he was the only one to recognize it, he knew that he was the messiah—he had to die to ‘pay the price’ of perfect love.

In its truest sense, we and every tree leaf, star, grain of sand, and every other entity in this universe are merely puppets on God’s giant stage. Because we are ‘players’ in his game, we are loved and accepted without consideration.

IMG_1065So what conclusions can be drawn? Many, many, but the most important are these—hell is an impossibility; everyone is destined for eternal bliss; physical miracles, as such, are an impossibility (any miracle would demand God change his nature and since that is imposable, so are miracles).

Considering all of the above leaves one simple conclusion—our only ‘justifiable’ prayer is simply “thank you Lord God, Jesus, and Holy Spirit (Will Of God). Amen.”

In my two books, Wilderness Cry and Peace in Spirituality, These concepts are developed to the fullest. In their reading, you will see clearly how ‘religion’ is the antithesis of this philosophy. Religions of all types are generally ‘begging and pleading’ God for something he has already done—lovingly given us eternal bliss, not through ‘justice and mercy’, but rather through his ‘Prefect Love’.

SPIRITUALITY OR RELIGION-Hilary L Hunt MD

cropped-img_0360-1-e1509913859388.pngDuring the last thirty years or so I have become more and more aware of the disconnect between Religion and Spirituality. On the surface one might consider those two concepts as being more or less one and the same—far from it. When we dig below the surface of any and all religions we find the same malady (sickness). Each of its kind, in turn, is afflicted with a variant strain of the same virus. Each is attempting, and I might say rather successfully, to control your mind and your purse. Each tells you that they offer something special which none other can offer. Furthermore, each is continually trying to convert ( steal) other groups members, and for what purpose?—more money, power, influence.

So how is it possible that 7+ billion people can be so divided over what seemingly should be a rather simple subject, God, Allah, Yahweh, Buddha, Brahma etc. The answer is very simple— no one knows about whom they speak. No one has ever defined the  essence of their Supreme Being– that is, no one before me. And that simple, singular fact is responsible for all the confusion and conflict in the universe. Spirituality is impossible. All we have is divisive, destructive religion.

IMG_0082Just what is religion anyway? Religion may be defined as a set of cultist practices aimed at a mythical god either as appeasement for our offenses or for gaining favor over others (a higher place in heaven). You may scream and kick and call me a heretic and blasphemer, but then, all I ask you to do is to define the essence of your god—and I will show you post-haste that your god is a myth—you can’t define it—I did. Because of a lack of that essential definition, we have in the world 33,000 so-called Christian religions alone—to say nothing about all the sub-sects of the other Great religions of the world.——–Spirituality is impossible.

Three years ago after 60+ years of intense study and deliberation, I was finally able to define the essence of God (Supreme Being).  I published that definition and expounded on many of its ramifications in my little book Wilderness Cry-A Scientific And Philosophical Approach to Understanding God And the Universe. I show in unmistakable terms how the concepts of God as portrayed in the Old Testament are pure mythology. The Israelites conjured up a god right out of their own play-book. They carried him around on their shoulders so they had total control of his whereabouts; they bargained with him down to the last penny (person); they offered him sacrifices in appeasement. Moreover, they proclaimed him to be their god alone—their god would eventually restore the Kingdom in the form of a new paradise  here on earth just or them—to hell with everyone else. Does anyone besides me see the cynicism in that ideation?—-aren’t we pretty much stuck with the same today?

You may say what does that have to do with anything?—and I say  everything. Without an essential definition, god is a myth—there is a different god for every person who ever lived. Each person’s god is no more than what each can imagine—just like Santa Claus. Priest and preacher wag their tongues incessantly about god, and all you can do is listen and imagine. Personally I was painted a picture of a grizzled old man sitting in bust-like form in the clouds—sometimes he was smiling—mostly he was scowling.

But then as we become educated as to the enormity and make-up of our universe, we are forced to reconsider this god of ours—how could that old man lord it over an entire universe so vast that no human mind can comprehend it? Consider this—the universe contains trillions of galaxies, each of which contain billions and trillions of stars (suns) and each of which are billions and trillions of miles apart. Out Milky Way galaxy alone is so vast that it would take a beam of light traveling 186,000 m/sec, 100,000 years to reach the other side. We also know that everything in this universe is made of identical tiny particles of energy—there are several different types but each is identical to its counterparts and each is perfect in form and function.  Furthermore, there is not a single one more nor less than when first created 13.7 billion years ago. Now that is  pure perfection  That knowledge not only  allowed but mandated my definition of the essence of God.   So therefore, GOD IS A PERFECT RATIONAL BEING.

IMG_1065Perfect rationality demands an ‘intellect’ which knows all and a ‘will’ which achieves all. It not only allows for, but demands, the existence of Trinity God. More importantly, it demands that every particle of energy (quantum) be branded  with the Holy Spirit (Will, Love, Acceptance) of God or it could not exist. That, my friends, is SPIRITUALITY—the understanding and acceptance that the spirit of God is in everything and that everything is in God.  Three years ago, I called for the  World-wide Communion of Spirituality—and what is that? It is the understanding and acceptance that we and every gravid object in God’s universe are bound in a common cloak of his Holy Spirit (Spirituality).

Religion, then, becomes the antithesis of Spirituality—it always has—hence we have perpetual discord. Instead of uniting us in Spirituality, Religion divides us with greed and hatred.

In my recently published little book  Peace in Spirituality, I demonstrate clearly the problems religion creates. Furthermore, I show that a ‘religious’ world can never be at peace—only a ‘Spiritual’ world can have peace.

For your consideration, I have includes Press Releases and short video trailers of my two books prepared by my publisher, Covenant Books. You will note that Covenant describes my Wilderness Cry as ‘A shining beacon of wisdom’. You be the judge.

Christmas-Hilary L Hunt MD

cropped-img_0360-1-e1509913859388.pngWhat does Christmas mean to you and why? I would vouch to say that for anyone even remotely indoctrinated in ‘Christianity’ of any type, it means a myth. And you, understandably shriek in horror at such blasphemy. And I say, “not so fast”. My intention is not to offend anyone—rather it is to plead to your sense of understanding.

Jesus was a real person just like you and I. The only real difference was that he was a ‘super-genius’. Without benefit of any basic scientific knowledge, Jesus was able to deduce the nature of God and his universe. Jesus was able to understand that he and everything in existence were mirror images of their creator—otherwise they could not be. He could see the universal condition of ‘selfishness’ in all things. He clearly understood that selfishness was an intrinsic necessity for existence and function—without selfishness, there would be no need–if there were no need, there would be no change—with no change, there would be no time—the universe would be functionless and frozen in ‘eternity’.

IMG_0082So ,why did we have a universe in the first place? I’m certain Jesus pondered that question incessantly—when he discovered the answer, he was terrified. God, his father, your father, my father, must show and actually be ‘perfect love’. What greater ‘love object’ could the Father have than an entire universe of ‘evil’ which he, himself created. Why, then, was Jesus terrified? Because he realized that since he was the only likeness of God to know and understand that principle, he was the one who had to ‘pay the price’—and gloriously he did. God, in the likeness of Jesus, accepted all of the evil in the universe, in the grandest display of love possible—he gave his own life in atonement.

Now lets back up to the birth of Jesus. Just last Sunday’s first Old Testament reading, we hear a prophet (I think Isaiah ) predict that ‘a virgin shall conceive’. Where he came up with that ridiculous idea would be interesting to know—I strongly suspect it was added in retrospect to support the superstitious ideas of the astrology mentality. Then three days later, we have the prediction come true.

If you have read my book, Wilderness Cry, you will know that I am the first person ever to define the essence  of God. I did so with six simple words– God is a perfect rational being. That perfection is translated into everything in existence—everything follows that perfect order. Therefore, physical miracles are an absolute impossibility. In order for a physical miracle to occur, God would need to change his nature—since God is perfect, change is an impossibility.

So why do we have the Nativity story as told in Luke’s gospel? I suspect Luke had to paint a ‘spectacular’ picture to satisfy his own superstitious and mythological mind. Professor Garry Wills, in his book, What Paul Meant, shows clearly that Luke is a veritable liar—every important aspect of Acts, which is meant to be a description of what Paul did and said, is at complete odds with what Paul, himself, wrote. Luke seems to have an uncanny penchant for fabricating tales to create a church the way he wants it.

IMG_1065Now, back to the ‘horror story’. From a sound and irrefutable, scientific and philosophical standpoint, physical miracles are an absolute impossibility. Therefore the following pertains: (1) Jesus was/is real: (2)he was born of natural parents: (3) of  necessity, he was a super-genius to see and recognize the nature of God and his creation: (4) once he concluded that he must die so the Father could be/exhibit his perfect love, he wanted desperately to tell the world the good news (gospel). So he set about his public ministry, working on the periphery attempting to educate twelve illiterates—it seems very doubtful to me that he succeeded: (5) in spite of his working and preaching in relative obscurity, his heretical teachings reached the ears of the Jewish authorities—he knew his days were numbered:(6) he went straight to the source—he made an onslaught on the temple—he turned over the moneychangers tables and called the some pretty nasty names while doing it: He then ate his last meal with his apostles, and while eating, he made one final desperate attempt to pierce their thick, prejudiced skulls—he told the that he and the Father are one just as they and the Father are one—he told them that the bread and wine they consumed were one with the Father, as was all of creation—it seems that most if not all of the didn’t understand–we have no certain way of knowing. Much of what was written was written by biased, superstitious people. Furthermore those writings have been altered extensively by other biased and superstitious people. (7) I believe without doubt that the ‘Jesus” story is basically true—its parameters are false.

It is noteworthy that the contemplative religions, Hinduism and Buddhism, basically can be summed up in the concept of trying to understand and define their Supreme Being—for that they are to be commended. The Abrahamic religions, on the other hand, are about appeasement.

For those of you who have not read Wilderness Cry and Peace In Spirituality, I strongly urge you to do so. You will garner a clear understanding of your Perfect God and your relationship with him—all  mystery and innuendo will be removed—you will then be able to have internal peace which will then assist you in being at true peace with your neighbor.

I am including press releases for both books as well a short video trailer for each.

SPIRITUALITY-Hilary L Hunt MD

cropped-img_0360-1-e1509913859388.pngSpirituality: now that’s a commonly used word, but I suspect few who use it are communicating a specific message to their listeners. In fact, I would venture to guess that if 10 million people used the word simultaneously, no two would be able to explain its meaning or to convey identical ideas to another. How am I allowed to make such an assertion? Simply stated, seemingly no two people have the same understanding of spirituality.

Just ‘google’ the definition of spirituality and you will get a litany of rambling, ambiguous verbiage but literally nothing of concrete nature. It is impossible to describe something the nature of which you don’t understand. Just as I have defined the essence of God in my book ‘Wilderness Cry’, I have defined the essence of spirituality in my newly released book ‘Peace in Spirituality’.

IMG_0082So, if those same afore mentioned 10 million people read and comprehended ‘Peace in Spirituality’, they would be able to speak about spirituality with one voice. Furthermore their listeners would be able to comprehend with ‘one ear’—that is real communication—everything else is misinformation and disinformation.

In my last post, I noted that Hindus and Buddhists were committed to understanding the meaning of existence, and, if possible, to  understanding the nature of the ‘existence giving’ principle, if any. Without benefit of any scientific information, they were severely hampered in their quest—that did not deter their determination.

Abraham and his descendants, on the other hand, identified ‘their’ god—he was theirs’ and theirs’ alone. They fashioned him directly after their own image and likeness. He had created the world—he ruled it like a king sitting on a glorious throne. He was totally separate from his creation and lorded over it with a ‘heavy hand’. His ‘subject peons’ were at his mercy. Sometimes they made him happy and he showered them with gifts of many sons and animals. More frequently they made him angry as his resultant wrath demonstrated. It soon became evident that the only way their god could be ‘appeased’ was through the sacrifice of their goods and animals.

Those sacrifices had to be ‘perfect’ and for that reason a ‘High Priest’ came into being. Not only was he the only one allowed to offer the sacrifices, he was the only one who could provide the perfect specimens to be offered. Of course those specimens didn’t come cheaply. The High Priest had to be paid, and a ‘pretty penny’ at that—so the High Priest got richer and the peasants got poorer.

IMG_1065Do you see how god operates?—just like the Israelites who designed him. You might say ‘what’s that got to do with spirituality?’ And I say everything. The Jews eventually got to talking about a Holy Ghost, but didn’t have a clue as to who or what it was. The Hindus and Buddhists recognized that possibly such an entity existed but, likewise, couldn’t quite put the puzzle together. The Israelite imagination of god precluded any possibility of their ever knowing the Holy Spirit. The Hindus and Buddhists suspected it was there but didn’t have an understanding of how.

Guess what, nothing has changed till now.  I have, in fact, defined the essence of spirituality in no uncertain terms. For more than a year, I have repeatedly called for the recognition and acceptance of the World-wide Communion of Spirituality. For greater understanding, please read my little books ‘Wilderness Cry’ and ‘Peace in Spirituality.  Press releases and video trailers of each attached.

Buddhism-Hinduism-Wilderness Cry-Hilary L Hunt MD

cropped-img_0360-1-e1509913859388.pngHave you ever wondered why and how two of the oldest philosophies/religions in the world came to be? More importantly, have you ever considered the ultimate concepts contained in those philosophies ? While I do not know, with certainty, about their origin and development, it seems likely to me that they were a direct attempt to understand the basic meaning of life, and at the same time, discover the nature if its origin. While the Abrahamic religions were busy bargaining with their god, and offering sacrifices to him, the contemplative far-easterners were desperately trying to understand if such an entity actually existed, and, if so, in what environs.

hMy research tells me that the contemplatives were way ahead of the sacrificials who had dreamed up a scheme of power and control right out of their own playbook—that is to say, they manufactured a god patterned directly after their own possessive, egotistical selves. Their god was theirs alone and could not be shared with anyone.

In the meantime, the contemplatives, like many native Americans, were driven to see their god in everything (wind, sun, stars, waters etc.). Without benefit of any scientific knowledge, just as Jesus, they were able to grasp the existence of God in everything. Jesus could not explain the specifics, he just knew that the spirit of God existed in everything. He saw that everything in existence was evil  by virtue of its selfishness, and by his knowing, he felt himself to be commissioned to die in atonement for the Father’s faults  so the Father could be Perfect Love . So, he died that we may live in eternal bliss.

IMG_1065Can there be a greater thrill? I’d vouch to say that no one, who professes an Abrahamic religion, is  any closer to God than any Hindu or Buddhist who ever lived. We, each, are loved equally by our Perfect Loving Creator, with no one possibly being more favored over another—there are no such things as  higher places in heaven.

Communion-Hilary L Hunt MD

cropped-img_0360-1-e1509913859388.pngCOMMUNION: in its usual sense this word means ‘a coming or being together’ in either body or spirit or both. It is generally used in a religious or spiritual sense–for instance we frequently hear of ‘the communion of saints’–more often we are presented with the sacrament of Eucharist which is commonly referred to as ‘Holy Communion”. The latter terms  typically are used by the ‘sacrificial’ Christians–Catholics, Episcopals, Lutherans, etc.

I am not certain how the term Eucharist became equilibrated with Holy Communion. The word eucharist means ‘thanksgiving’ whereas the term Holy Communion refers to the eating of the body and blood of Jesus by the community of believers. This latter matter is what I wish to address today. The afore mentioned group of ‘sacrificial  Christians’ believe that by saying the words of consecration, ordinary bread and wine are turned transsubstantially into the actual body and blood of Jesus. This ritual is a direct hold-over from the Jewish High priest who made IMG_0082a ‘perfect sacrificial offering’ to a vengeful God as an appeasement.

Religions and religious leaders are free to profess and believe what they wish, as well they do. Consequently, as of 2014 there were 33,000 so-called Christian denominations with each claiming absolute validity and authority–that’s religion for you.

Now, lets put some sense to all of this. Presuming that the Particle Physicists are correct, we know the following—every gravid object of any kind in this universe is composed of the same identical particles of energy. Those particles have different identities, but each of its kind is identical and perfect in both form and function to its counterparts. Furthermore, there is not one particle more or less in existence now than roughly 13.7 billion years ago at the time of the ‘big bang’. Collectively, these particles are known as quanta (pleural for quantum). A quantum is the smallest particle which cannot be farther subdivided. Each particle has remained perfect since the moment of its creation. With that knowledge and understanding, two logical assumptions may be made—1-those particles were imagined and designed by a ‘perfect intellect’—2-those particles are maintained and kept perfect by a ‘perfect will’. That perfect intellect and will comprise a Perfect Rationality which has been called by a thousand different names—some of the more familial are God, Allah, Yahweh, Brahma, Buddha, Zeus, etc.—‘a IMG_1065rose by any other name is still a rose’.

So, what does all that have to do with ‘communion’?—I say everything. And by everything, I mean ‘everything’. If the scientists are correct, and I have no reason to doubt that they are, then everything in existence is in %100 communion with everything else. Jesus, we say, was/is God—so are we—so is every grain of sand, every drop of water, every leaf. Everything is ‘branded’ with the Will (Holy Spirit, Love, Choice) of God—therefore ‘all’ is God and God is ‘all’.

Then, what we see in ‘religion’ is an exclusionary attitude—you may not partake of the God in you unless you are ‘branded’ by ‘our’ doctrine. Does it get any more ‘selfish’? And for what reason?—power, money, control. Just look around you and what do you see?—‘missionaries’ of every sort and description scouring the earth in desperate attempt at converting the unaware to their way of thinking (believing).

All of this display clearly demonstrates two vital points. Number one, not a single religious leader has ever defined the ‘essence of God’—consequently, not a single one of them knows the God about whom they so vehemently preach. Number two, that unrelenting attempt at ‘stealing’ other group’s members always has and always will create unrelenting hostilities.

So where does that leave you and me? I don’t know about you but I certainly know about me—it left me ‘crying out for truth from a wilderness of mythology, superstition, ignorance, and deceit. It prompted me to do something never before done—define in irrefutable terms the ‘Essence Of God’. As a consequence it allowed me to lay out an absolute pathway to ‘permanent peace’. Those two unimaginably important concepts plus dozens more are spelled out explicitly in my two books, Wilderness Cry and Peace in Spirituality. Press Releases and short video trailers for both books are attached below.

Contradiction-Hilary L Hunt MD

cropped-img_0360-1-e1509913859388.pngCONTRADICTION: the word itself mean a saying or statement that seems contrary to the reality or truth of another statement. Contradictions are a ‘dime a dozen’ in our everyday lives—may are readily resolved and many go totally unresolved. I want to address what seems to me do be a direct contradiction between Christian prayer and a direct quote from Luke’s Gospel.

The Christian prayer in question is the Apostles Creed which says, ‘Jesus was crucified, died and was buried. He descended into hell. He arose again on the third day—‘ . Luke, in referring to Jesus’ crucifixion with the two insurgents on either side says that one of them rebuked Jesus for not saving  them and  himself, while the other scolds the first for rebuking Jesus, attesting that Jesus was innocent while they were getting their ‘just due’—he asked Jesus to ‘remember him when he came into his kingdom’. Jesus replied ‘this day thou shalt be with me in paradise’.

This appears to me to be a clear-cut example of ‘direct contradiction’. Some apologists, may attempt to explain it away with some hidden meaning of hell etc. However common folks speaking and hearing common language would definitely have a clear understanding that those two statements are a direct contradiction of one another.

As a matter of factual experience, during my 81 years of regular weekly/daily attendance at Catholic Mass, I have never once heard the issue addressed from the pulpit. I believe I know why—there is no rational explanation.

While I can’t prove either of the statements to be correct/incorrect, my strong suspicion is that neither is correct. In the first instance, no one knows what happened to Jesus’ soul, and in the second instance, we know from History Professor Emiratis, Garry Will, That Luke was a veritable liar. Professor Will, in his book, What Paul Meant, Shows clearly that everything Luke wrote in ‘Acts Of The Apostles’ was a total lie. Paul, you recall was the first writer—he wrote about his activities basically as they occurred. Luke’s writings about Paul’s activities bear no resemblance to Paul’s writings. Luke fashioned a religion the way he wanted it—not according to Jesus’ plan.

So, ‘right off the bat’ we have, contradictions galore and we have unfounded speculations galore all of which set the stage for the birth of more mythology founded religions—33,000 of them to be exact (as of 2014).

Preachers of every ilk have pounded the pages of that ‘holy book’ without the slightest notion of that they are saying—how can they possibly know? They speak incessantly about a god that they don’t know, and they speak incessantly about a Jesus they don’t know. And for what purpose?—money, power control. These same preachers  are building empires of structures, wealth an influence. Is That what Jesus supposedly told his apostles?—I don’t think so.

While shaking the dust off my cerebral cortex, I seem to remember Jesus telling his apostles to ‘go into the world and preach the good news that God loves you and that I have come to die for your salvation. Take no provisions; accept that is offered you; If you are not received, shake the dust off your sandals and move on’ (paraphrased). Of all the hundreds of thousands of preachers in the world, what percentage of them are concerned enough about your soul  to do as Jesus said?—I suspect extremely few. Do you see the hypocrisy as I do?

More importantly, do you see the lament?  While the preachers are amassing wealth, simultaneously they are unwittingly/possibly wittingly spreading hostility among Gods People—‘my preaching(church) is better than your’.

Please read my little books, Wilderness Cry , and Peace in Spirituality. In wilderness Cry I actually define the essence  of God, so now you may know explicitly just who your God is. In Peace in Spirituality, I show the absolute only fool-proof pathway to peace. Press Releases and video trailers for both books attached—all comments and questions welcomed.

TRINITY GOD-Historical Perspective-Hilary L Hunt MD

cropped-img_0360-1-e1509913859388.pngTRINITY GOD: I suspect that most so-called Christians have been indoctrinated with the  basic concept of a Trinity God—Father, Son. Holy Ghost. Likewise, we have been led to believe that, while such a concept is absolute truth, it is not understandable for us mere mortals—it is a mystery. And, based on the concept of God as portrayed in both the Old and New Testaments, I would agree one hundred percent with that assessment. I am allowed to say that because that God is portrayed either as a grizzled old man with an angry demeanor sitting in semi-bust form on the clouds or a similar figure dressed in finest regalia, sitting on a befitting throne with Jesus his little boy sitting by his right side—the whereabouts of the Holy Ghost seems conveniently absent (how do you depict an invisible Ghost?).

There is a clear reason for that  mystery denotation and it  rests clearly on the singular fact that absolutely  no one before me has ever defined  the essence of God. It goes without saying that absent an essential definition, nothing has meaning, God included..

So now we fall back again to history—what does it have to say about all of this? What it has to say and to show clearly is that beginning with the Egyptians, literally every society in existence has recognized a trinity godhead. Of course the Jews while in captivity of the Egyptians undoubtedly adopted their trinitarian concepts— there seems to be a reasonable assertion that it is referred to in the Second Creation Story. Be that  as it may, the writers of the New Testament picked up on it, but I’d vouch to say , they had not the foggiest notion about what they were saying and less idea about what it meant–they simply were spewing out meaningless words base on superstition and mythology.

The oddity in all this is that Jesus knew—he was the only human to know, but because of their bias, and prejudice, the Jews could not  and would (did not want) understand what he was saying. So they killed him.

Another oddity is that for two thousand years, great thinkers, philosophers, and theologians of all types and kinds have tried desperately to understand—they all failed for one simple reason—their thought processes were locked in a box with a grizzled old man for a god. Not one of them could or would let his mind wander back to the real Jesus and his words—such was their blindness or fear of reprisal or possibly both.  Foolishly, they all kept trying to put a two inch square peg into a one inch round hole—it wouldn’t fit.

My sixty five to seventy year trek to the truth took many twists and turns before the ‘lights came on’. When they did, all was instantly clear. That Grizzled old man of a god instantly turned into A God of Perfect Rationality—a God of Perfection in all spheres and domains including Love. My essential definition of God as ‘A Perfect Rational Being” not only allowed for but rather mandated Trinity just as Jesus described, and the Jews rejected.

Jesus knew that his soul (Spirit) and the Spirit of every particle of energy of which everything is made mirrors their Creator. Cumulatively, that Creation is the Mirror Image of God—the Second Person Of The Trinity. The perpetual Love between them carries the ‘Brand of its Generators—it is the third person of Trinity—the Holy Ghost. So the Trinity is no mystery at all. The Jews and Christians concept of God is, however, a complete myth.

The rub comes from the irrational concept that God is here and his creation is over there—he lords it over all. Rationality demands an omnipresent God which permeates all with his Perfection and Love. He resides in all, and therefore can reject nothing.

For a complete dissertation on all of  this and much, much, you must read my two little books, Wilderness Cry, and Peace in Spirituality. Press Releases and video trailers included below. All comments welcomed.

Baptism With the Holy Spirit-Hilary L Hunt MD

cropped-img_0360-1-e1509913859388.pngAs suspected, yesterdays post about the history  of baptism, created  quite a   stir about the origin of baptism and its meaning. There are certain groups of Christians who cannot allow themselves that luxury of historical perspective. However, the  pagan origin of Baptism is undeniable. The ‘rub’ came when the Catholic Church declared Baptism a Sacrament, and  an essential for admission into heaven. That instantly created another loophole which had to be closed—that being  state  of limbo for the  un-baptized.

I will expose my ignorance here and declare that I do not know exactly  how the Fundamentalists  Christians came  to recognize  Baptism as a requirement for salvation. They don’t recognize Sacraments—some accept a few–Episcopalians accept them all—just don’t recognize the Pope. Suffice it to say, the pagan ritual of baptism was adopted by the Jews and  was eventually converted to a rite of ‘penitential cleansing’ by making John’s baptism as salvational.

IMG_0082So it is evident, the responsibility for Christian baptism lay clearly at the feet of Jesus. However Jesus said, ‘John gave you baptism with water, but I will Baptize you with the Holy Spirit’. Obviously a paradox exist here. Why did God’s voice speak from the  heavens and say , ‘This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased . Listen to him’. Who was there to listen and hear? Jesus had not yet chosen his apostles. So who heard that it might be recorded later? I suspect no one.  I believe it was absolutely a ‘trumped up’ idea inserted into Bible centuries later to satisfy the figment of someone’s imagination. If the Jews had heard it, they would have been compelled to, obey—direct orders from God?—who would dare ignore?

No, rather I think Jesus spoke truly about the Holy Spirit. He tried desperately for three years to educate his ‘thick- headed apostles and others—we have absolutely no way of knowing whether or not he was successful—so corrupted is the Bible. Jesus saw plainly that the Spirit of God (the life giving principle of all,  God’s love of all, God’s acceptance of all,  God’s Holy Will) resided in all. God did not reside  ‘over there’ and his creation reside ‘over here’—they were one an the same. Jesus told his apostles, ‘The Kingdom Of God is spread out all over the earth around you and you don’t see it’.

IMG_1065If we are ever to have peace on this earth, each of us must come out of our ‘badger like’ cocoons, humbly accept that the Spirit of God is in us all, and indeed in all of creation. Not one of us is worthy of God’s Kingdom—it is by his singular acceptance that he has  made us, and every grain of sand in the universe worthy.  With that understanding, we could finally have peace—not until.

My little book, Peace in Spirituality spells it out precisely. You must first read and understand Wilderness Cry before  you can understand  Peace in Spirituality.

For you locals, I will be signing copies of both books at The Good News Shoppe in Mayfield this coming Friday, Jan. 10, 11:00 AM-2:00 PM. Both books are readily available on line both hard-copy and e-books—of course, always available directly from me. Don’t miss out.

BAPTISM-Hilary L Hunt MD

cropped-img_0360-1-e1509913859388.pngBAPTISM: today I want to address the custom of Baptism and discuss its history. I would venture to guess that most Christians think of Baptism as a Christian rite originating with John the Baptist and Jesus’ baptism in the Jordan. Nothing, however, could be farther from the truth. A simple perusal of historical data will show that ancient Egyptians, Mesopotamians, and cultures of all sorts including Hindus and American Indians had some sort of ritual Baptism.

In the case of Christians, the practice undoubtedly came through the Jews from the Egyptians. The Egyptians believed that baptism in the waters of the Nile River afforded them an immersion into god in the next life. You will recall that the Jews were enslaved by the Egyptians for 400 years. It is very likely that during that period, the Jews adopted some of their captors’ ways—baptism was one of them.

So when the New Testament says matter of factly that John was baptizing in the Jordan, it was understood by the writer that his readers would know what he was IMG_1065referring to—it was a common practice.

When Jesus came along and was baptized by John, the developing Christian church established the process as a sacrament. Moreover, the church declared it an absolute requirement for admission into heaven—un-baptized people could not enter heaven; they went to a place called limbo—a place of natural happiness but not supernatural, perfect happiness. When I was catechized in Roman Catholicism, baptism was to be done expeditiously—doctors, nurses and all people were instructed in the simple process of pouring on the water and saying the baptismal words in case of emergency or risk of death. In any event, baptism as a formal ceremony, done by a priest seldom went 7-10 days post-partum.

As I attend Sunday Mass, baptisms are frequent, and many are done during the Mass ceremony itself—others done after Mass. It seems obvious that most of those babies are several weeks(months) old. I wonder why the change in sense of urgency. The ceremony used to be done in private—now with great hoopla. Anyone have any ideas? Has limbo been swept under the carpet? I haven’t heard the word mentioned from the pulpit in sixty years.

The truth of the matter is this; baptism has absolutely nothing to do with our salvation—that has been guaranteed by the death of Jesus. My two books, Wilderness Cry and Peace in Spirituality elucidate all. By defining the essence of God, I am able to address every human condition relating to God and salvation. Press Release and video trailers for these books included.
