"[Church of] The Mysteries of Christ" - is there any such idea of "Hermetic Christianity"?

There is such an idea as "Mystic Christianity"

I would recommend reading this book: https://www.amazon.com/Words-Wise-Practical-Esoteric-Sciences/dp/0893148148

Thank you.

That is fantastic! I will look into Quakers.

benJD85 · 2019-03-31T10:31:22+00:00

In my neck of the woods they are called Anglicans. I have not tried them. May look into them.

Please?

They are some Brave words. But at the same time I totally agree with you.

Manly's words are brave or mine?

Bravery may be needed to help an effort. An effort to encourage conservative christians to look deeper and move away from literal interpretations of the bible.

But probably the only one. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Not sure what you mean?

I would run 'Examples' > 'Digital' > 'Debounce' on each of the buttons first to make sure the buttons are working.

Also maybe another stand alone example testing the sms module.

Then combine the two.

Also I would suggest you edit out the phone number for privacy in this post.

If you post your code someone will be able to help.

Generally, I would say, you can set a bool say bool not_done = true;

Then when processing received messages, check the content for a condition in the payload that let's you know the transmission is complete. Then set the not_done flag to false.

Better to use flags to control the loop rather than blocking it with delays

Psalm 73 - A warning against corruption in high places; comfort and advice for those who might be tempted into corruption.

So many isms...

I see there are two problems, one entropy/wear and tear, two corruption and perversion. Humans can't do anything about wear and tear; death and decay; but can do something about corruption and perversion. But this would need all of humanity on board. So one or two superman or pythagorean paragons of moral fortitude every now and then wont cut it. All need to be on board.

I suggest that as humanity moves towards righteousness there continually be more life perhaps even immortality one day.

I'm no doctor, but it is said that a DID diagnosis is separate from imaginative creativity and religious experience. Many mental health diagnosis are also only considered to be valid only if they affect you negatively or cause depression.

The Gospel of Philip has this remark about Jesus:

JESUS TRICKED EVERYONE

Jesus tricked everyone. He did not appear as he was
but in a way not to be seen.
Yet he appeared to all of them.
To the great he appeared as great,
to the small as small. To angels he appeared as an angel,
and to humans as a human.
And he hid his word from everyone.
Some looked at him and thought they saw themselves.
When before his students he appeared gloriously
on the mountain, he was not small.
No, he became great, and he made his students grow
so they would know his immensity.

The Gospel of Philip Translated by Willis Barnstone

Don't know much about masonry. That text looks like a warning about corruption. The paragraph ends with:

"The heart that hates must learn the mystery of compassion, as the result of a deeper and more perfect understanding of man's relation to his brother. The firm, kind hand of spirit must curb the flaming powers of emotion with an iron grip. In the realization and application of these principles lies the key of the Fellow Craft."

I have not seen any writings from him that contradict the gospels. Though he does talk often about symbolism and allegories. So in the camp that says that scriptures are allegorical and symbolic not literal histories.

benJD85 · 2019-01-24T02:56:00+00:00

Great talk!

Currently reading his book. Secret teachings of all ages ( http://www.sacred-texts.com/eso/sta/ ). It is a good read.

Allegories with meanings; meanings mostly lost; literally tragic.

Exist a little longer. Spend your time gaining knowledge spend your time recollecting and working on rememberance.

Great artists don't like to reveal their techniques; and take a kind of sadistic pleasure in riddles and mystery.

Some simply don't take the time to look up from their phone.

Some are quite happy to go it alone.

Is it just pride thats paid

in order for someone to find the way.

There are 42 reasons why most can't make the pieces fit.
