Re: We Punish Ourselves...

Amazing really that our Karmaic debt can be canceled but this is what every religion hopes. An example in Christianity: The wages of sin(ego)is death but the gift[karmaic debt cancelation]of God[Trusting the source God/Love]is eternal life through Jesus Christ[Yahshua Messiah] our Lord.


"FOR ALL HAVE SINNED, AND COME SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD".
(Romans 3:23)

"FOR THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH; BUT THE GIFT OF GOD
IS ETERNAL LIFE THROUGH YESHUA MESSIAH (CHRIST) OUR LORD".
(Romans 6:23)

In Christianity that gift is given to us while we live if we confess with our mouth that Jesus Christ(Yahsua/Yehshua) is Lord but lets look at who will receive the gift at some point:

Romans 5:18 Therefore as by the offence of one [judgment came] upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one [the free gift came] upon all[All Men] men unto justification of life.

One way or another ALL will come to shed our sin(ego) but it is a matter of when we shed our sin(ego) that determines when we receive salvation. What an amazing gift if we receive it in this life and believe it enough to begin walking in it. This is why I can't see why so many religions are bent on thinking its their way or else God is going to roast them for eternity. If we choose now we receive the Gift of the Holy Spirit(In the Christian Tradition Jesus Christ)then we can do greater things than even Jesus Christ performed but many Christians bury their gift(karmaic debt relief) and choose to put their ego back on. I know I do sometimes...but as soon as I go back to the source of life through prayer and meditation, I get back in the flow of the Holy Spirit. If we don't receive the gift of karmaic debt relief in this life then we will not have access to the Holy Spirit that is the inner person that resides within us but some day every knee will humbly bow before a loving God and confess that they have sinned(let their ego rule their life) and receive the gift of eternal life(minus the ego).

Our egos(sins) can start making us begin to start believing that the free gift of Jesus Christ is for people just like us but we all who continue to sin(have an ego) and need to work out our salvation daily because we can get out of harmony with God. I hope each and every person can find the peace the Holy Spirit brings me by accepting that free gift. If not, I am certainly not going to condemn them....because each of us has our own day to let go of our ego(sin) and accept the the free gift of debt cancellation the true source of God's gift to the world.

Each of us can only attempt to walk in love(without ego) but for me it helps knowing that Jesus Christ is on my side... I hope that each of you find that gift(debt cancellation) as well. God's love is light and not heavy. I hope you find that light.
