  • Celestial Jerusalem

    IMG_0408

    When I think of Jerusalem I think of the Jewish settlement there. PBS had a recent series of shows on "what being Jewish  is."

    It was interesting and I never really thought of it as a  religion with just one God and the Muslims have only one God, too.

    Being a Christian I believe in three Gods in one; the Holy Trinity. I guess it all depends on how you were brought up to believe.

    I put the picture up cause I trust in someone higher then myself. That is my Jerusalem.

  • Hehe! But being Christian you should believe in One God as well. One God in three Persons - the Holy Trinity - still only one God.. The way you said this makes you sound polytheistic instead of monotheistic... just saying.

  • I never understood the Holy Trinity.

  • I must have missed the Jerusalem cue. :)

  • I like the way you think and speak honestly.

  • I too, believe in one God in 3 Persons. I think that's probably what you meant. I don't understand the Trinity either, but I still believe. I like what Frank said about the Perfect King ruling in love. I haven't written any poems because I've been super busy with company, and taking care of Tom.

    • I haven't done any poems cause I just am not able to.
      I know what you mean about how you believe but you don't understand.
      Once on Archie Bunker in All in the Family the mother Edith stopped believing and going to church because a friend was murdered and the whole family was up set but the son Mike-meathead said,"well, did you understand math in school and she said no, I was terrible and he said,"well, did you hate school cause you hated math and she said,"oh, no I loved school."
      That really meant a lot to me.
      Give the birthday boy a big hug from me.

  • I agree with ata_grandma, as far as the Christian Trinity goes. God presents Himself in ways different people can understand Him.

    • I believe a lot of things I don't understand but it's what I was brought up to believe.
      I don't understand how God made a flower so I'm rather simple. LOL

  • Jilly there is nothing simple about you...I believe God is the father, the son and the holy ghost.

  • Only one God in three persons , the FATHER , THE SON AND THE hOLY SPIRIT , the Holy Trinity.
    Love
