I have recently (last few months)been thinking about God, religion and have ended up quite confused. I would be grateful for your thoughts.
basically, this is what I believe, does it match any religion?
I believe -
there is a creator (God) but is neither male nor female but has both elements - Father God/Divine Mother
that we do in fact re-incarnate, working out our sins or karma until we achieve self realisation and can return to the creator.
that Jesus was a great man, who had christ consciousness, and came to show us how to worship God/creator. I do believe he did in fact resurrect due to his god awareness/christ consciuosness.but i dont think he intended me to worship him,(jesus) but to worship/find God/Creator.
I believe that the New Testament has a lot of good stuff in it, but am confused as to why some things seem to be followed but others arent hence all the diff churches etc. For instance I read that women should keep their heads covered (to pray),and shouldnt cut their hair, why dont the majority of christians do this then? how come some things are taken "by the book" and others are disregarded ?
Also, regarding the Bible, did "God" suddenly change from being a vengeful and strict God, to being an all loving one, at the end of the Old Testament and start of the new?
Am confused by this! So any thoughts and comments are most welcome please.
