"a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth" - Hate Money of Satan and Love the Love of the God!

 

Mt. Fuji from around Tokyo

Hate Money of Satan and Love the Love of the God!

The current Christianity teaches people that those who believe in the Bible, Christ Jesus, the Holly Mary, etc. should be allowed to enter Heaven.  But, it is apparent that this teaching of the current Christianity is not enough to save peoples in the world and achieve true peace among peoples and the world.  

The core of the teaching in Christianity is encouragement for people to become poor and poorer than their neighbors so as to be loved by the God and allowed to enter into Heaven.  Be poor and poorer is the essence of Christianity.

From this point of view, we have to review the Bible and the Gospels.  Christ Jesus was revolutionary in the fact that He declared publicly and openly that the poor would be accepted in Heaven after their death in this world but the rich would go to the hells; and the God loves the poor. 

In this sense, it should be regarded as blasphemy for a man to be richer than Christ Jesus if a man thinks that Christ Jesus is one of his neighbors.  If a man, whether he is a priest or a man in a street or a palace, lives in a richer house, eats more delicious foods, and clothes himself in more beautiful clothes than Christ Jesus had, he should be rejected in Heaven after his death in this world.

People today look like a young man who asked Christ Jesus about guidance in life but could not accept what Christ Jesus told him:  

        (Matthew 19, King James Version)
18 He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,
19 Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
20 The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet?
21 Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.
22 But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.
The point at issue is that Christ Jesus did not say to be a priest or a clergyperson and help the poor, but He recommended to be poor as much as one could.  And Christ Jesus said that if a man became poor, he would be accepted in Heaven where he could enjoy his wealth.

Therefore, people who believe in Christ Jesus should try to be accepted in Heaven where they can enjoy spiritual happiness, so that they should try to be poor and poorer than their neighbors.  In this context, people should be proudly poor and poorer as Christ Jesus and early Christians were.

Indeed, Christianity is a religion for the poor.  A Christian country is a nation where everyone is competing in getting poor and poorer.  And, the poorest man should be a king or a president in such a country.  Every one should sing a song praising poverty.  And, every one should dream to become the poorest man in the world, so that he would be given more rewards in Heaven after his death in this world. 

But, as most of people have been brainwashed by Satan using money as its tool, such people despise and laugh scornfully at the poor.  Indeed, Satan has made people love money and wealth so that they would hate the God, Heaven, Christ Jesus, the Holy Mother, etc. and revere Satan, evil, the hells, etc.     

Therefore, believers of the God, Christ Jesus, the Holly Mother, etc. should fight against Satan who is trying to brainwash people with money and make them revere Satan and evil.  What is more, Satan attacks the believers who hate money, using those brainwashed by money, as it attacked and killed Christ Jesus in this world 2,000 years ago.

So, the order of this world and the spirit world is as follows:
The God => Love => Heaven => the Spirit World => the Material World => the Hells => Hatred and Money => Satan
  
Or simply:
The God => Love => Men <= Hatred and Money <= Satan

++++ ++++ ++++

Luke 12, King James Version
13 And one of the company said unto him, Master, speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me.
14 And he said unto him, Man, who made me a judge or a divider over you?
15 And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.
16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:
17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.
19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.
20 But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?

"where many were gathered together praying" - Psychic or Spiritual Power among the Japanese


                                              Mt. Fuji from around Tokyo

Psychic or Spiritual Power among the Japanese

Before WWII in Japan, there were some psychics or religious leaders who launched doctrines where Japanese Buddhism and shintoism were mixed based on Japanese spiritualism.  They believed that once emperors of Japan had been the leaders of the world more than 10 thousands ago.  Those super-ancient emperors were traveling the world on board of a kind of UFOs to guide local people in various areas in the world.   Some religious groups established by them are still active today.

In other words, the Japanese imperial family are based on spiritual traditions that are still believed in by some Japanese.

Many psychics in Japan have been linked to Japanese Buddhism and shintoism, although they accept the religious authority of Christ Jesus.  Even some researchers of spiritualism in Japan think that every religion in the world is under the common spirit power.  In this context, they think that Christ Jesus, the Buddha, etc. are on a par in the spirit world.  They admit that there is a sole great god who had created this world and this universe, and they think this great god is among traditional gods or deities of Japanese Buddhism and shintoism.

Psychics in Europe and Americas are mostly linked to Christianity like Swedenborg and Allan Kardec, but Japanese psychics are mostly linked to Japanese Buddhism and shintoism.  Therefore, Japan's imperial family whose ultimate authority is based on Japanese shintoism is the potentially religious or spiritual leader of the Japanese people, although Japan's Emperor does not occupy a religious position such as that of the Pope in the Vatican.   

However, as the Pope seems not to have sufficient spiritual power, Japan's Emperor seems not to have such power.  But, in WWII some 80 years ago, most of the Japanese thought that the Empire of Japan should win and defeat the U.S. by super-natural or psychic power of the Emperor.  But, the Empire of Japan surrendered to the U.S., accepting the American style of democracy based on American Christianity.  However, the Japanese people did not abolish cultural or spiritual traditions centered around the imperial family as in past 1700 years, although they became not to be hostile or but became rather friendly to Christianity after WWII.        

Although none requests a U.S. President to have and exercise super-natural or psychic power, it is a little disappointed that the Pope does not have and exercise super-natural or psychic power.  But, sometimes some Japanese psychics or spiritualism researchers tend to dream that Japan's Emperor has and exercises super-natural or psychic power to become the spiritual leader or center of the world like in more than 10 thousands ago according to their belief.

However, the incumbent Emperor of Japan once studied in a university in the U.K.; he seems not to have any power associated with Japanese Buddhism and shintoism.  Yet, unique spiritualism associated with Japanese Buddhism and shintoism seems to still alive in Japan even today.  And, it must be a key to understanding the Japanese unique culture and the human nature of the Japanese.

For your reference, one of the world's oldest clay pots used 16,500 years ago was found in Japan.  So, it is natural to think that some Japanese have psychic or spiritual power that can be traced back more 10 thousands years ago, since today there live in Japan similar people to those who lived in Japan about 17 thousands years ago creating the world's oldest clay pots.

Acts 12, King James Version
11 And when Peter was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a surety, that the Lord hath sent his angel, and hath delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews.
12 And when he had considered the thing, he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, whose surname was Mark; where many were gathered together praying.
13 And as Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a damsel came to hearken, named Rhoda.
14 And when she knew Peter's voice, she opened not the gate for gladness, but ran in, and told how Peter stood before the gate.
15 And they said unto her, Thou art mad. But she constantly affirmed that it was even so. Then said they, It is his angel.
