Anyone vaguely familiar with the four so-called Gospels in the Judaeo-Christian bible's New Testament, knows the comparable of the rich young ruler. This young man said he had done a lot of good things. He was essentially saying he was a good person, a good Christian, a good human, a good citizen, a good employee, a good neighbor, a good son, a good father, a good husband, a good brother, a good friend, so what else did he need to do to have eternal life? Jesus said sell everything, give it to the less fortunate and follow me. The rich young ruler was sad and left, and no longer followed Jesus. Jesus' twelve disciples were also confused as to why somebody had to sell everything. They missed the point that the first thing is to set yourself free from having faith in possessions which are corruptible and instead build a foundation of Trust in The Lord. Build all logic on that and then all things needed for this life will be added and can be added with the proper amount and perspective.Societies worldwide have the same mentality as the rich young ruler. Societies are unwilling to do what is fundamentally necessary to be truly good in this life and have that result in eternal life in the next. Societies do not not want to structure their asilis and worldviews on a foundation of two truths. Societies don't want to fundamentally change their logic, thinking, behavior, ways. Societies do not want to trust in the Lord Maat.
Societies want to do almost all things disharmonious and then a few good things and claim their society is mostly good and only need a few tweaks.
Societies do not want to do what is fundamentally necessary in any aspect of life, except when that aspect supports their vices and weaknesses to maintain imbalances, privileges and unfair advantages. The primary weakness being a weak knowledge of who they are, where they came from and why they are here.
This is why nothing has been done and will be done in societies to respect water, air, earth and sun.
Jesus, the Lord of Two Truths, told the rich young ruler to keep the commandments. This means keep the ten commandments which can be summarized in the two greatest commandments (Matthew 22 and Mark 12). Societies fail in every one of these twelve laws of living a good life and being a good person.
The only reason societies exist and the only reason favored groups exist is that they violate all the commandments of Christ, which are otherwise stated as Maat and Rights Of Creation and 47 Admonitions To Maat.Societies don't even do the good things the rich young ruler did. Even though the rich young ruler was good, good ain't good enough. You have to be perfect to have eternal life. Perfect is not hard. Perfect is what the Lord Of Two Truths said perfect is. Perfect is not how societies defines perfect. Perfection is achieved in the heart that remains light as a feather. In order for a heart to remain as light as a feather has been explained. I now add that a heart must bear the burden of carrying the cross of Maat, the christ of two truths in order for that heart to become as light as a feather. Jesus said, take up the cross and follow me (take up the spirit, logic, emotions, mindset and philosophy of the two truths and follow them by carrying them with you everywhere). This approach transforms the burden into an equal bearer that lifts, supports, guides and illuminates.
Societies serve one master only, the Destroyer Principle. This is why the Judaeo-Christian bible justifies all manner of crime against the natural world and against people in order to gain and maintain possessions and power. Recent example: while claiming to be about saving earth and humans from climate change, societies also are still going full speed with every manner of poisoning people with vaccines and medications. Jesus said follow me. That means follow my logic, not human logic. Follow the ever-coming, ever-changing, always climate changing logic that remains harmonious throughout the ecosystem. Get rid of your worldview and laws. I am the worldview and I am the law.
Jesus told the rich young ruler to give everything to the poor. In other words societies must restore balance and individuals and collectives must work immediately and hurriedly and quickly towards that goal, not do a little bit at a time and back pat self by saying we've made progress. Progress towards what? Do good completely to the degree you know what needs to be done.
Up to the point of asking Jesus the question, the rich young ruler did not know he needed to sell everything and follow all the commandments. Societies have come into existence and praise themselves on what they've done, but when faced with the obvious truths of what they lack, societies don't want to change because that would mean, giving up possessions and power. Societies claim to be about budgets while maintaining debts and deficits.
In the Usa and worldwide, many groups claim greatness based on goodness contributions and an abundance of goodness logic. This has always been obviously false. No society has ever been good.
Obviously it's okay to be rich as long as you are contributing to balance and not contributing to imbalance. Not contributing in a few ways, but contributing with all you have to give. With all your resources, time, thoughts, spirit, being, intentions, hopes, dreams, careers, jobs, destinies, purposes, goals. To whom much is given, much is required. Also, one who gives all they have, even though it is a little, has given more than one who gives a lot, yet who has not given all. (Mark 12 and Luke 21).
Same lesson is taught in Matthew 25 about the master who gave varying amounts of talents to his servants. The point is to take what you have, invest it in the world, and create abundance that returns to God, nature, the world, the universe. Leave the world in a better place than when you arrived. What are we doing with what we have, be it a little or a lot. What are we doing with the little bit of understanding we have? With the large amount of understanding we have because we are “educated?” What are we seeking first? What are we holding onto the most? What gives us the most feeling of security in this life?
1. Matthew 19: 16 – 30
2. Mark 10: 17 – 31
a) But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life. Black people, we don't have a hundredfold in this life, so what are we doing wrong?
3. Luke 18: 18 – 30
a) There is no man that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of God's sake, Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and in the world to come life everlasting.
If The Lord You Serve Provides For You The Needs Of This Life Then Trust In This Lord, Otherwise Do Not
Didn't the Lord give Job riches? And Solomon? And the Israelities? And weren't there rich people who did follow the two truths? Namely Nicodemus, Joseph Barnabas of Arimathea**, the Marys, the multitude, the one who had the loaves and fishes, those who have enough to tithe, those who have enough to pay tithes of taxes to governments. Those who have enough to go beyond needs and get wants.
1. Matthew 6: 25 – 34 is yet another contradiction to “if a man does not work, he should not eat as explained in Don't Trust In The Lord Who Is Not Ride or Die, Unity Consciousness #2931
a) Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
b) (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
c) But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
d) In other words, seek to be good and do good always, and by living this way, then you will prosper.
a) Sell that ye have, and give alms; [give to those in need, give time, money, energy, thoughts, information, knowledge, understandings, wisdom, instruction and other assistance you are able to give]
b) Acts 4: 34 – 35, Neither was there any among them [christians] that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold, And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.
This message applies to everyone. Everyone is rich. Rich is multidimensional. Rich is relative. Rich means you have more than others who need something you have or can make good use of what you have. Rich in no ways applies only to human-made money. Rich even applies to the trash we throw away every day. We are rich in trash because we compile bags of trash and pile it up and send it away instead of giving those riches of trash back to the earth from whence it came. We flush waste down drains and toilets. We send away food waste instead of giving it to the birds and ants and other creatures in the soil. And so on there are many things we are rich in. Are we being good stewards, good enough stewards and even better stewards?Societies are suboptimal and inefficient, thus they waste more than they produce in benefit, which is why societies are always running deeper and deeper deficits in the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual, thus also causing deficits in multiple areas of the natural world. Think about it for about 30 seconds. If the American Dream was a good thing why are so many people mentally ill in a place with the best education, best healthcare, best institutions, best culture and best everything?
