THE BANE OF EMERGENCE AND EVOLUTION OF RELIGION: SHOULD FOUNDERS AND FOLLOWERS BE CRUCIFIED?

RELIGION has become so DEAR to the HEARTS of many that none is REPARED to RELINGUISH! Almost ALL FOUNDERS of RELIGION saw the NEED to RESCUE humanity from SUFFERING, HUNGER, DESTITUTION, IMPOVERISHMENT, POVERTY, PAIN, SORROW, DEATH, UNPLEASANT CIRCUMSTANCES or SITUATIONS! Out of EMPATHY many FOUNDERS' of RELIGION emerged.

Almighty God in His INFINITE WISDOM gave the TEN [10] COMMANDMENTS to Moses to be READ to the PEOPLE for them to FOLLOW and OBEY. The COMMANDMENTS were PROTECTIVE of the POOR, NEEDY, WEAK, GULLIBLE and VULNERABLE in Society. The LOVE of GOD for HUMANITY PERMEATES ALL CONTROLS of Almighty God. Will a GOD of PERFECTION condone IMPERFECTION? NO! God throughout BIBLICAL HISTORY shielded HUMANITY from His JUDGMENTS and PUNISHMENTS! That was why He commanded that the MERCY SEAT be put on TOP of the ARK of GOD! The Israelites, who were the TREASURED POSSESSION of Most High God, REJECTED GOD as KING and RULER, so opted for an EARTHLY KING to LEAD them. The VOICE of the PEOPLE is the VOICE of God, so God had to succumb. But then, Almighty God warned them of the CONSEQUENCES of the CHIOCE they are making. The TORAH was the HOLY BOOK serving as GUIDE to ZIONISM and other SECTS that emerged afterwards. The SCRIBES, SADDUCES and PHARISEES were always at CONFLICT with each other. DOCTRINAL DIFFERENCES emerged from MISINTERPRETATION, MISAPPLICATION, MISUNDERSTANDING, MISREADING etc. of the TORAH. SECTARIANISM, DIVISIONISM, DENOMINATIONALISM, and SEPARATISM gained CREDENCE!

CHRIST JESUS emerged on Earth in the 1st Century B.C. and INTRODUCED GOD-LIFE or GODLINESS to HUMANITY. The SCRIBES, PHARISEES and SADDUCES were in CONSTANT CONFRONTATION with CHRIST and His DISCIPLES. They refused to ACKNOWLEDGE CHRIST JESUS as the MESSIAH! No matter the NUMEROUS PARABLES JESUS spoke to ILLUSTRATE the KINGDOM OF GOD, they were always at VARIANCE! The JEWS REJECTED CHRIST, so APOSTLE PAUL had to be sent to the GENTILES for the SALVATION of NON-DESCENDANTS of ABRAHAM. So the FALL of the JEWS brought SALVATION to the GENTILES.

PROPHET MOHAMMED lost both parents at a very tender age so had to be RAISED by a RICH uncle who was a MERCHANT. Mohammed had a CHRISTIAN COUSIN who INFLUENCED him so much with the HOLY BIBLE. Mohammed, at age between 8 and 12, met a CHRISTIAN MONK on a VOYAGE. This ENCOUNTER brought great TURNAROUND in the LIFE of the HOLY PROPHET. Mohammed returned to the ARABIAN PENINSULAR from his VOYAGE and saw how IMPOVERISHED to Society has become. The RICH are FEW and LORD OVER the POOR and NEEDY. He began to LIVE and LIFE of SECLUSION. He could go to the CARVES or SECLUDED places to MEDITATE and COMTEMPLATE. I believe that ALL this while the HOLY PROPHET carried a BIBLE with him, since QU'RAN was non-existent at the time. MEDITATION will definitely bring a man to DREAMS, VISIONS and REVELATIONS. Mohammed had a VISION and was great TROUBLED! He spoke to the ELDERLY of his time about the VISION and they ADVICED him to go SEEK CLARIFICATION from a CHRISTIAN MONARCH! VISIONS from God are DEVOID UNEASINESS and TROUBLE of the MIND. The CHRISTIAN MONARCH was not God, so how on Earth can he UNDERSTAND, KNOW and INTERPRETE rightly the VISION? Prophet Moses before departure from Earth told the PEOPLE of ISRAEL that God will send to them a PROPHET in the LIKENESS of ELIJAH, who will TURN the HEARTS of the FATHERS to the CHILDREN and vice versa. The CHRISTIAN MONARCH therefore suggested to MOHAMMED that he was the PROPHET Moses talked about. The FOLLOWERS of MOHAMMED therefore encouraged him to embark of a CRUSADE to SALVAGE the SUFFERING MASSES. Unlike CHRIST JESUS who introduced GODLINESS, Prophet Mohammed used WAR and CONQUEST to IMPOSE MOHAMMEDANISM or ISLAM on the people of ARABIA PENINSULAR and beyond. Who do we take ADVICE from? Prophet MOSES talked about the emergence of JOHN THE BAPTIST, who was the FORE-RUNNER of CHRIST JESUS and not Prophet Mohammed! Now ISLAM and MOHAMMEDANISM have METAMORPHOSED over the years and greatly upheld by many as the TRUE RELIGION. Other FOUNDERS also went through same or similar FATE.

The FRAILTY and NOTHINGNESS of HUMANITY are greatly EXPOSED in the EMERGENCE and EVOLUTION of RELIGIONS. Shall we continue in IGNORANCE and MISSOUT of HEAVEN or FOLLOW GOD-LIFE introduced by CHRIST JESUS and make it to HEAVEN? RELIGION will not take mankind to HEAVEN! The WAY to HEAVEN is GOD-LIFE or GODLINESS! CHRISTIANITY is NOT RELIGION. CHRISTIANITY is the VERY LIFE and ESSENCE of Most High God. ALL FOUNDERS had GOOD INTENTION for HUMANITY but ended up on a SAD NOTE! Even HOLY PROPHET MOHAMMED begged ALLAH for FORGIVENESS at TIME of DEATH! Let us be WISE and FOLLOW the GOOD. SHALOM.
