Answer Upon - Stopping a Nuclear War
Back 20 years ago when the Internet was just in its infancy, the only way to build a webpage was simply to use notepad, a free text editor supplied with Microsoft Windows. Now as the Internet has become a collage of music, special effects and flash, the art of writing HTML code is slowly being lost to HTML Editors like Microsoft FrontPage and Macromedia Dreamweaver MX. Yet, whether you like it or not, to be able to effectively build websites you still need to know at least basic HTML Code. Let me explain …HTML or Hypertext Markup Language is in all essence the language of the World Wide Web. Without HTML our Internet Browsers like Netscape, Internet Explorer or Firefox would not be able to interpret our webpages. HTML is made up of a series of tags that describe the inner workings and structure of how you want to present your webpages. Now in all seriousness you could survive building webpages without knowing one little bit of HTML but to be truly successful on the web this is not true.Search engines are now one of the main tools utilised on the web and everyday you see Microsoft's MSN, Yahoo and Google jostling for the number one position in the search engine stakes but as a web programmer being able to position yourself into a top ranking spot is probably one of the most important skills you will need to master. As being in one of the top positions for your keywords means that you will be receiving free focused traffic to your website which is much better than having to pay for it via Google's Adword, Overture and any one of the other text ad based services.So why is knowing HTML going to help you in getting your website positioned into a top spot in the search engines …The first thing you need to know is how to correctly format your header tags of your webpage because without properly formatted header tags, the search engines won't know what your sites about and what keywords you wish to associate with the webpage. One of the big issues I have seen with some of the HTML editors is that they don't address this issue of Header tags or in particular meta tags, which means if you are building a website you are already compromising the websites ability to be placed into the right position within search engines.For example many of the HTML editors will provide you with popup forms that will help you set your meta data for your descriptions and keywords but they miss out other important meta data such as wheth
To repeat, THERE IS NO CONNECTION BETWEEN THE END TIMES, ARMAGEDDON, OR A WORLD-WIDE NUCLEAR WAR, AND THE IDEA OF ESTABLISHING HEAVEN ON EARTH, OR THE LIBERATION OF THE INNER MASTER OR THE CHRISTOS. The Bible relates that when the CHRISTOS returns the goats will be separated from the sheep. Essentially, this is a process that separates out the good from the bad. It is at this point that literal Christians make the same literal mistake that they criticize literal Muslims of making. The process of separating the goats from the sheep is usually mistakenly understood to mean that all evil people, (the goats), are marked to be physically killed and the sheep, (the good people), are marked to be saved. This literal belief reduces people to a black and white judgment of being either all good or all bad.
The original intended meaning is that the evil and good within people are to be separated. Then the evil within is what will be destroyed. The awakening of the Christos within people does happen through an inner positive violence that destroys all the illusions and the evil within, rather than an OUTER Satan that is in other people. Therefore, the awakening of the dormant Christ Within, or the Islamic Master Within, is not about a mass slaughter of humanity to cleanse the earth. The reality of your false personal world must be destroyed before it can be replaced by a new connection to your awakened inner Christos reality. The Bible states this principle by saying that the Old Man (old natural mind) must die and then you can be born again as a new spiritual creature in The Christos Within.
The kingdom is within and it does require an inner battle to seize it, but that does not require that billions die in order for that inner relationship to become activated within your inner reality or to liberate heaven within you.
THE PHYSICAL LIBERATION OF THE ISLAMIC MESSIAH
Who is the Master that is trapped in the well? Was it a literal physical well that he refused to crawl out of until a mass destruction of humanity occurred? No, such a Master would not ask you to destroy life in order to create happiness. He is within you. He is a part of your dormant inner Divine self that seeks your concerted efforts to strip away your evil parts of yourself that bind you and imprison Him. The Islamic Messiah is within every Muslim.
Every Muslin when the Master Within is freed is a savior to others. There is no external physical Master. You are blessed with the gifts that this Master offers you. This is the same idea that exists in Christianity. There is the Christos that exists in all people but is dormant and asks to be awakened. It comes from within to all who are willing to remove the physical attachments that bind them to the destructive attractions of human nature.
It asks only that you overcome your own human nature. To he who overcomes, it shall be given. Suicide does not awaken that mas
Internet home businesses are being launched in record numbers. While working from home creates a unique set of challenges, working on the internet is often an even greater obstacle. There is no doubt that the internet environment provides more distractions than a three ring circus. Here are some simple steps to save you tons of time and money.Define a specific goalDon't fall into the "make money" trap. That's not a goal. It's an outcome. Your goal is to build a lasting business and successfully market a product or service. But even that is too vague to prevent you from laughing at the clowns a taking a roller coaster ride.To succeed you must specifically define a niche market, an in demand product and a marketing strategy. You might choose rose gardeners as your target market. Your research shows that rose gardeners are desperately trying to rid their bushes of aphids. Your product is the Aphid Eliminator.Your marketing strategy will probably include building a simple website to sell the product, driving traffic with articles, and following up with visitors via an autoresponder series.Adopt an "all business" mindsetFor the next few weeks you must devote your time exclusively to the Aphid Eliminator. Anything that diverts you from reaching your goal of successfully marketing this product is a sideshow. Ignore it, at least during your working hours.You must stay on your chosen path to take your product to market. Later, you will adjust your strategies. These changes will be based on the tracking data you collect. If you allow yourself to be diverted before testing your strategy, you will just be wasting time and money.You don't need to invest in the latest side show that guarantees a flood of traffic, until your web stats tell you that your not generating enough website visitors with your current methods. Even then, carefully consider the cost versus the possible return.Create a timetableBreak the tasks down into manageable steps. During week 1 create 10 articles about aphid problems and solutions. During week two set up your autoresponder and create a series of informative articles and tips about the joys of rose gardening and remind your subscribers about your easy solution for aphid problems. During week 3 set up a simple website to sell your product. Do not allow your targeted completion dates to be changed. Procrastination seldom leads to success.Internet home businesses fail frequently. Stay focused and s
This article, which is being freely distributed over the internet, is designed specifically to awaken over a billion Christians and another billion Muslims, plus non-religious people from all over the world to the fact that neither of these religions advocate that a physical Armageddon is coming. Nor does either of these religions state that the end times are coming or that they are a necessary ingredient in order to bring about a return of their Master or the establishment of the inner Kingdom of God on earth. Both the Master, and the Kingdom, are already present and awaiting a global awakening of all peoples of the human race.
Currently, billions of people are all holding the thought that both the Muslim scripture, and the Bible, have teachings stating that an outer world-wide destructive event must occur before their scriptures will be fulfilled. However, such interpretations do not reflect what is written in the scriptures. These destructive prophetic expectations almost accelerate people’s contribution and participation in using violence to accomplish religious ends.
If billions of people are focusing their concentrated thought upon one fixed idea that a world-wide conflagration is almost a necessity before scripture can be fulfilled it is obvious that nuclear War becomes far more likely to happen. At the very least, this attitude tacitly condones the large-scale use of weapons of mass destruction which will help facilitate the arrival of heaven on earth.
This article is not meant to be an in-depth presentation. It merely offers to correct a few of the mistaken religious ideas that are helping to fuel an outbreak of global nuclear war on this planet.
REMOVING THE UNDERLYING RELIGIOUS CAUSES OF NUCLEAR WAR
What are the religious beliefs that are fueling a nuclear war right now?
• That the end times and Armageddon have not yet occurred.
• That when the kingdom of God comes it will exist physically on earth AND it will not be a kingdom within as is stated in the scripture. Instead the belief is that it will be a literal outward kingdom which people who dwell in physical bodies will easily experience in a completely natural physical literal way. The belief that Jesus has not already returned physically. Therefore, his physical literal return is still expected by the great majority of Christians world-wide.
• That the Islamic Master trapped in the well cannot be freed until a world-wide catastrophe is started.
• That the battle against evil is a battle against other humans rather than an inner battle. Therefore physical killing can be a service for God. That killing others who seem to be evil and sacrificing your life in outer battle will bring you into good standing with God.
• That God created chosen religions and chosen people these special religions believe that they have little evil within them. However, Satan is believed to be in the other religions, and therefore destroying them is a great service for God.
• This world-wide catastrophe is believed by many Christians and some Muslims to be a literal outer necessary event (versus a complete destruction of all the old evil parts that are within each person and the race at large).
• That Jihad should only be defined as an outer battle against people who are perceived by you to be evil and deserving of the judgment of death. However, evil and Satan are within yourself, therefore what is required by scripture is an Inner Jihad.
• That the Muslim or Christian religion will prosper world-wide after the great world-wide destruction occurs. The Muslim heaven is set up by their returning Master who is freed from the well and Jesus sets up a kingdom after breathing on two great warring armies that are engaged at the time in the great battle called Armageddon.
• That the rapture is going to occur before, during, or even after the end times.
• Some believe that the rapture is a meeting with the returned physical Jesus and he will take people away from the earth to meet in the air, and supposedly their physical bodies will disappear. Then the physical Jesus will come down to earth and the raptured people will come back down to earth with him. Then Jesus will setup a literal physical outer kingdom of heaven on earth.
SATAN EVIL
The philosophical and religious debates surrounding the origin and nature of Satan have been around for thousands of years. Regardless of your personal beliefs on this subject at least you might acknowledge that evil is also something that can exist within people rather than be only some external destructive force that comes upon you. If evil is only external and you are free of it inwardly then you are the savior of the world. But if you have any flaws in you thinking, your character, your mind, your body, your habits, your behaviors or even your beliefs then perhaps you too carry some evil around with you. The evil within is the same as Satan within Everyone has some evil within them. That is why they are here on this school of learning called Earth.
Your neighbor has some evil in them. Perhaps they can’t see it but you might. And maybe it is harder for you to notice the evil within yourself than it is to notice it in your neighbor. Remember though, your neighbor also has goodness within them. No doubt it is true that some people contain more evil than others. Keep in mind though that there is a Spark of Light that God has placed in everybody. If God is everywhere then that spark has to be in the worst person on the planet. Therefore, it is impossible to totally destroy evil by killing people. If you do then you have killed some good as well. This kind of physical killing will produce a scar upon your soul. It violates ethics, morality and it violates your scriptures as well.
THE END TIMES AND ARMAGEDDON
Have you ever heard the hopeless question, If the Bible is correct, and I believe it is, then how can Armageddon be stopped The author also believes the Bible and Muslim scripture are correct about the great battle that needs to be undertaken with evil, Satan and destructive influences. But this battle is not about a physical world-wide destruction it is about destroying Satan within. The intent of this article is to uncover that fact that many of the end times prophesies have already been fulfilled. Its other goal is to demonstrate to you that the return of the Master can happen without any outer violence or the taking of human life. Neither the Islamic Master, nor the Christ, require a world-wide Armageddon in order to awaken in the hearts of people. Let’s take a short look at the end time’s issue. The word Armageddon is mentioned only once in the Bible. It is in the Book of Revelations 16:16. It is also called the great day of God in Rev 16:14. While the term end times is not specifically mentioned in Revelations it is certainly very likely that Armageddon and the end times both refer to the same event. No doubt the majority of readers will be startled to hear the assertion that the Biblical end times have already occurred.
The country of Israel was completely brought to an end in 70 AD when the Roman army invaded and destroyed the country. It happened SOON just as Jesus repeatedly stated in his messages. If your country was totally destroyed, the army demolished and the survivors scattered throughout the world, would you consider it important enough to be called the end times? Never once did he allude that the end times were some far off event. When the Old Testament prophets spoke of the end time they DID speak of it as being a far off event. But not Jesus, every time he spoke of it, he said that the end of Israel was coming soon, or quickly. He also spoke of it coming unexpectedly.
Keep in mind that unexpectedly is different than soon or quickly. He said it would occur unexpectedly and soon, within the very generation he was addressing. John and other disciples spoke of the Antichrist ALREADY with them and that the end was near. Jesus in Revelations states that the end times would bring a recompense to repay those for what they had done to him, (Rev 22:12 revised standard edition). Again that meant it was coming to those who were physically involved in his death and the rejection of his message and who refused to believe that he was the messiah whom the Jews were expecting and failed to recognize.
THE PHYSICAL RETURN OF JESUS
What is equally surprising to many Christians is not only that the end times have already occurred, but that Jesus has already returned physically in the flesh as well. Paradoxically, while the Jews missed the coming of their messiah, the Christians recognized him, but then they missed recognizing his expected physical return.
The Jews still await their physical messiah, and ironically, after almost 2,000 years, Christians are still awaiting the bodily return of Jesus. Jesus has already returned physically to his disciples exactly as he promised he would.
After the crucifixion he startled them all as he came to them in his very physical body. They did not believe he was flesh and blood when they first saw him again. They asserted to him that he must be a spirit. But he corrected their mis-interpretation and let them know that he was physical and not a spirit.
However, they were skeptical so he showed them his physical wounds. Still they did not believe him, so he challenged them to touch him physically. He further had to prove to them that he physically returned by asking them if they had any food because he was hungry and they all sat down and ate fish and drank wine together.
However, his physical return was not some special physical vision that only his disciples and those close to him were able to witness. The Bible states that hundreds of people also witnessed that Jesus returned physically in the flesh after the crucifixion and his death on the cross. The Bible is very clear on these accounts. Jesus returned early to his disciples as he promised.
He did not make them wait thousands of years. The accounts of Mary hugging him and others seeing him are clear. He has already physically returned. He even said those who pierced his side would witness his physical return. He kept his word. Jesus also promised to his disciples that when he returned he would transfer the kingdom of God and the Holy Spirit to them. His promise is in the Bible. And when he returned physically, the Bible confirms that he did indeed transfer both of these to his disciples. However, some of them were skeptical after he did this for them. Nevertheless, whether they were able to fully appreciate his gift or not, he gave them the Kingdom and the Holy Spirit as he promised he would upon his return. They could receive it in their current life at that moment he gave it, or later if need be, in the life to come. Further he told them they all had the skill of passing on the realities of both the Kingdom and the Holy Spirit to others who were open and willing to receive it.
Again, he kept his word. Perhaps you may wonder, why so strong a belief exists in the mind of so many Christians that Jesus never physically returned, or all the accounts in the Bible of his physical return somehow don't count. Most Christians don't believe Jesus returned because there are a number of literal beliefs held that Jesus specifically mentioned should not be expected to occur. These beliefs can be distilled into one idea. Many Christians mistakenly believe in a literal outer kingdom. This belief exists is despite that such a kingdom is not what was promised to anyone. It is because of this expectation they can easily point to anywhere on the earth and see that OUTWARDLY there is no kingdom of God. But, to repeat, he never made that promise. The kingdom is inward and Jesus set up a spiritual condition than can be experienced when we inwardly join with him.
So the mistaken expectation that heaven is going to be outwardly present on earth is causing millions of Christians to deny the Biblical accounts that his physical return to his disciples was the fulfillment of his promises. This fulfillment seems so impossible to many people because the natural side of their human condition (the natural man) cannot meet with Jesus. While he taught that you can meet with him in the spiritual realm (in the air), but that rapture cannot be with your flesh body or your flesh senses. Instead, he said it will require you to be raised up into your spiritual body. But being raised up does not make your physical body disappear.
THE SPIRITUAL RAPTURE
What is also confusing to many Christians is the idea of being taken. Many Christians want to be taken in a rapture and not left behind. Those taken will supposedly disappear in the middle of their daily activities. This is the attempt to make literal and physical the spiritual rapture that actually happens within yourself. It has no relationship to your physical body. This is the exact opposite of what Jesus taught. He explained that in the days of Noah people were eating and drinking and did not care. When the end times came, they were taken and they perished in the great flood. Noah and his family were LEFT BEHIND. The idea of being taken is not what you want and it is not related to the rapture. There is a rapture, and it is related to the Christos, but Jesus did not discuss it in Matthew 24. A world-wide wave of awakening the INNER Christos is coming. It will sweep upon all religions and all peoples. This rapture is an inner meeting with the Christos embedded within all receptive people.
THE CHRISTIAN RETURN AND THE SPIRITUAL CLEANSING OF EARTH
How does the Christian concept of Christ returning after a great world-wide Armageddon differ from the Islamic idea of their Master being liberated from His prison after a world-wide destruction? Actually, the awakening of the Inner Christos relates very closely to an INNER awakening of the trapped Islamic Master. Keep in mind that neither the Christos or the Islamic Master require an Armageddon or a world-wide destruction in order to be liberated from its current dormant state within humanity. The mistaken belief that underlies the radical Islamic and Christian ideal of an outer Jihad or an outer Armageddon in order to liberate heaven on earth and the Master that is trapped (in a well), is what is fueling the religious contribution towards making a global nuclear war a reality.
To repeat, THERE IS NO CONNECTION BETWEEN THE END TIMES, ARMAGEDDON, OR A WORLD-WIDE NUCLEAR WAR, AND THE IDEA OF ESTABLISHING HEAVEN ON EARTH, OR THE LIBERATION OF THE INNER MASTER OR THE CHRISTOS. The Bible relates that when the CHRISTOS returns the goats will be separated from the sheep. Essentially, this is a process that separates out the good from the bad. It is at this point that literal Christians make the same literal mistake that they criticize literal Muslims of making. The process of separating the goats from the sheep is usually mistakenly understood to mean that all evil people, (the goats), are marked to be physically killed and the sheep, (the good people), are marked to be saved. This literal belief reduces people to a black and white judgment of being either all good or all bad.

The awakening of the Christos within people does happen through an inner positive violence that destroys all the illusions and the evil within, rather than an OUTER Satan that is in other people. Therefore, the awakening of the dormant Christ Within, or the Islamic Master Within, is not about a mass slaughter of humanity to cleanse the earth. The reality of your false personal world must be destroyed before it can be replaced by a new connection to your awakened inner Christos reality. The Bible states this principle by saying that the Old Man (old natural mind) must die and then you can be born again as a new spiritual creature in The Christos Within.
The kingdom is within and it does require an inner battle to seize it, but that does not require that billions die in order for that inner relationship to become activated within your inner reality or to liberate heaven within you.

Car loans after a bankruptcy is one of the first secured loans you will qualify for. Not only will you obtain transportation with a car loan, but you can also rebuild your credit. The following three facts will help you get the best financing deal.1. Seven Years Doesn’t Mean Seven Years Of No CreditBankruptcy doesn’t mean that you can’t qualify for credit for seven years. After a few months of reestablishing your credit, you can apply with a subprime lender for vehicle financing. With a good credit record of two years or longer, you can look at conventional lenders.Subprime lenders work with non-traditional borrowers. With their slightly higher rates, they can offer a variety of financing options to people with all sorts of credit records. Conventional lenders also look at people with bankruptcy once they have regained a good credit score.2. Lenders Offer Different Rates – So Compare First Lenders offer different rates from the market index. By comparing the APR, which also includes any fees, you can find the lowest costing loan. This doesn’t always mean the lowest interest rate.Another way to reduce your rates is to increase your down payment to 20% or more. A large down payment reduces the risk of default, enabling lenders to provide better rates.Rates also vary by the type of vehicle you purchase. New cars purchased from a dealership qualify for the lowest rates. But budget considerations, such as vehicle price, should also be considered in choosing your car’s financing.3. You Can Refinance Car LoansOnce you sign a contract for your car loan, you don’t have to feel trapped by the rates. Today’s lenders offer refinancing options for car loans. Even if rates go up, you may find that by improving your credit score, you will qualify for better rates in two years.If you plan on refinancing, make sure that your current car loan doesn’t have any early payment fees. Also, be aware that the majority of your interest is paid at the beginning of your loan. Waiting too long to refinance may not save you any money, so check the numbers first.Reasonable car loan rates can be found by researching and planning ahead.
• That Jihad should only be defined as an outer battle against people who are perceived by you to be evil and deserving of the judgment of death. However, evil and Satan are within yourself, therefore what is required by scripture is an Inner Jihad.
• That the Muslim or Christian religion will prosper world-wide after the great world-wide destruction occurs. The Muslim heaven is set up by their returning Master who is freed from the well and Jesus sets up a kingdom after breathing on two great warring armies that are engaged at the time in the great battle called Armageddon.

To repeat, THERE IS NO CONNECTION BETWEEN THE END TIMES, ARMAGEDDON, OR A WORLD-WIDE NUCLEAR WAR, AND THE IDEA OF ESTABLISHING HEAVEN ON EARTH, OR THE LIBERATION OF THE INNER MASTER OR THE CHRISTOS. The Bible relates that when the CHRISTOS returns the goats will be separated from the sheep. Essentially, this is a process that separates out the good from the bad. It is at this point that literal Christians make the same literal mistake that they criticize literal Muslims of making. The process of separating the goats from the sheep is usually mistakenly understood to mean that all evil people, (the goats), are marked to be physically killed and the sheep, (the good people), are marked to be saved. This literal belief reduces people to a black and white judgment of being either all good or all bad.
The original intended meaning is that the evil and good within people are to be separated. Then the evil within is what will be destroyed. The awakening of the Christos within people does happen through an inner positive violence that destroys all the illusions and the evil within, rather than an OUTER Satan that is in other people. Therefore, the awakening of the dormant Christ Within, or the Islamic Master Within, is not about a mass slaughter of humanity to cleanse the earth. The reality of your false personal world must be destroyed before it can be replaced by a new connection to your awakened inner Christos reality. The Bible states this principle by saying that the Old Man (old natural mind) must die and then you can be born again as a new spiritual creature in The Christos Within.
The kingdom is within and it does require an inner battle to seize it, but that does not require that billions die in order for that inner relationship to become activated within your inner reality or to liberate heaven within you.
THE PHYSICAL LIBERATION OF THE ISLAMIC MESSIAH
Who is the Master that is trapped in the well? Was it a literal physical well that he refused to crawl out of until a mass destruction of humanity occurred? No, such a Master would not ask you to destroy life in order to create happiness. He is within you. He is a part of your dormant inner Divine self that seeks your concerted efforts to strip away your evil parts of yourself that bind you and imprison Him. The Islamic Messiah is within every Muslim.
Every Muslin when the Master Within is freed is a savior to others. There is no external physical Master. You are blessed with the gifts that this Master offers you. This is the same idea that exists in Christianity. There is the Christos that exists in all people but is dormant and asks to be awakened. It comes from within to all who are willing to remove the physical attachments that bind them to the destructive attractions of human nature.
It asks only that you overcome your own human nature. To he who overcomes, it shall be given. Suicide does not awaken that mas
Thanks to Wojciech Jestrzebowski, a Polish scholar, who introduced the term Ergonomics back in 1857 we know more about how we can incorporate the use of equipment to help with some of the daunting work duties that may take its toll on our bodies in the long term. It has only been in the recent years that companies have taken notice and have implemented ergonomic equipment in the work place. Thanks to these employers we can now lead a healthier, happier life with less body pains and strains than before.Computer work stations have advanced significantly throughout the years as people sit at them more and more. The incorporation of a good ergonomic chair and ergonomic computer work station can be a heaven sent for those who are lucky enough to have one. Repetitive motion is one of the larger concerns when it comes to computer users.The repetitive motion disorders develop because of microscopic tears in the tissue. When the body is unable to repair the tears in the tissue as fast as they are being made, inflammation occurs, leading to the sensation of pain. Repetitive motion injuries are among the most common injuries in the USA. Thankfully there are ergonomic solutions that can aid with many of the repetitive motion jobs that we face in the work place.Pushing or pulling wheeled loads has also taken a turn in the ergonomic lime light in recent years. With more and more published articles and proven methods on how we can push or pull more effectively. And with equipment like the Cart Mule ® which motorizes the cart or carts making the task easier for one person to do without the normal physical aspects of pushing or pulling heavy wheeled loads. Most workers do not realize the nerve, tendons, muscles and supporting structures of the body they may be injuring beyond repair when lifting, pushing, pulling, holding or carrying objects the wrong way.As ergonomic equipment and products come into play more and more in the work place we will find a healthier, happier society. As equipment and products evolve into ergonomic helpers, we will find workers who become more productive in the work place, a worker that feels good and is without pain and stress will call in sick less often, work quicker and more effectively. When a worker is without pain it can cause mood changes for the better thus being in a better mood around fellow workmates, which in turn will make a more pleasant work environment.More job applicants are becoming aware of the ergonomic benef
The country of Israel was completely brought to an end in 70 AD when the Roman army invaded and destroyed the country. It happened SOON just as Jesus repeatedly stated in his messages. If your country was totally destroyed, the army demolished and the survivors scattered throughout the world, would you consider it important enough to be called the end times? Never once did he allude that the end times were some far off event. When the Old Testament prophets spoke of the end time they DID speak of it as being a far off event. But not Jesus, every time he spoke of it, he said that the end of Israel was coming soon, or quickly. He also spoke of it coming unexpectedly.
Keep in mind that unexpectedly is different than soon or quickly. He said it would occur unexpectedly and soon, within the very generation he was addressing. John and other disciples spoke of the Antichrist ALREADY with them and that the end was near. Jesus in Revelations states that the end times would bring a recompense to repay those for what they had done to him, (Rev 22:12 revised standard edition). Again that meant it was coming to those who were physically involved in his death and the rejection of his message and who refused to believe that he was the messiah whom the Jews were expecting and failed to recognize.
THE PHYSICAL RETURN OF JESUS
What is equally surprising to many Christians is not only that the end times have already occurred, but that Jesus has already returned physically in the flesh as well. Paradoxically, while the Jews missed the coming of their messiah, the Christians recognized him, but then they missed recognizing his expected physical return.
The Jews still await their physical messiah, and ironically, after almost 2,000 years, Christians are still awaiting the bodily return of Jesus. Jesus has already returned physically to his disciples exactly as he promised he would.
After the crucifixion he startled them all as he came to them in his very physical body. They did not believe he was flesh and blood when they first saw him again. They asserted to him that he must be a spirit. But he corrected their mis-interpretation and let them know that he was physical and not a spirit.
However, they were skeptical so he showed them his physical wounds. Still they did not believe him, so he challenged them to touch him physically. He further had to prove to them that he physically returned by asking them if they had any food because he was hungry and they all sat down and ate fish and drank wine together.
However, his physical return was not some special physical vision that only his disciples and those close to him were able to witness. The Bible states that hundreds of people also witnessed that Jesus returned physically in the flesh after the crucifixion and his death on the cross. The Bible is very clear on these accounts. Jesus returned early to his disciples as he promised.
He did not make them wait thousands of years. The accounts of Mary hugging him and others seeing him are clear. He has already physically returned. He even said those who pierced his side would witness his physical return. He kept his word. Jesus also promised to his disciples that when he returned he would transfer the kingdom of God and the Holy Spirit to them. His promise is in the Bible. And when he returned physically, the Bible confirms that he did indeed transfer both of these to his disciples. However, some of them were skeptical after he did this for them. Nevertheless, whether they were able to fully appreciate his gift or not, he gave them the Kingdom and the Holy Spirit as he promised he would upon his return. They could receive it in their current life at that moment he gave it, or later if need be, in the life to come. Further he told them they all had the skill of passing on the realities of both the Kingdom and the Holy Spirit to others who were open and willing to receive it.
Again, he kept his word. Perhaps you may wonder, why so strong a belief exists in the mind of so many Christians that Jesus never physically returned, or all the accounts in the Bible of his physical return somehow don't count. Most Christians don't believe Jesus returned because there are a number of literal beliefs held that Jesus specifically mentioned should not be expected to occur. These beliefs can be distilled into one idea. Many Christians mistakenly believe in a literal outer kingdom. This belief exists is despite that such a kingdom is not what was promised to anyone. It is because of this expectation they can easily point to anywhere on the earth and see that OUTWARDLY there is no kingdom of God. But, to repeat, he never made that promise. The kingdom is inward and Jesus set up a spiritual condition than can be experienced when we inwardly join with him.
So the mistaken expectation that heaven is going to be outwardly present on earth is causing millions of Christians to deny the Biblical accounts that his physical return to his disciples was the fulfillment of his promises. This fulfillment seems so impossible to many people because the natural side of their human condition (the natural man) cannot meet with Jesus. While he taught that you can meet with him in the spiritual realm (in the air), but that rapture cannot be with your flesh body or your flesh senses. Instead, he said it will require you to be raised up into your spiritual body. But being raised up does not make your physical body disappear.
THE SPIRITUAL RAPTURE
What is also confusing to many Christians is the idea of being taken. Many Christians want to be taken in a rapture and not left behind. Those taken will supposedly disappear in the middle of their daily activities. This is the attempt to make literal and physical the spiritual rapture that actually happens within yourself. It has no relationship to your physical body. This is the exact opposite of what Jesus taught. He explained that in the days of Noah people were eating and drinking and did not care. When the end times came, they were taken and they perished in the great flood. Noah and his family were LEFT BEHIND. The idea of being taken is not what you want and it is not related to the rapture. There is a rapture, and it is related to the Christos, but Jesus did not discuss it in Matthew 24. A world-wide wave of awakening the INNER Christos is coming. It will sweep upon all religions and all peoples. This rapture is an inner meeting with the Christos embedded within all receptive people.
THE CHRISTIAN RETURN AND THE SPIRITUAL CLEANSING OF EARTH
How does the Christian concept of Christ returning after a great world-wide Armageddon differ from the Islamic idea of their Master being liberated from His prison after a world-wide destruction? Actually, the awakening of the Inner Christos relates very closely to an INNER awakening of the trapped Islamic Master. Keep in mind that neither the Christos or the Islamic Master require an Armageddon or a world-wide destruction in order to be liberated from its current dormant state within humanity. The mistaken belief that underlies the radical Islamic and Christian ideal of an outer Jihad or an outer Armageddon in order to liberate heaven on earth and the Master that is trapped (in a well), is what is fueling the religious contribution towards making a global nuclear war a reality.

When it is time to shop for a new car there are many things to take into consideration. One of the biggest decisions is whether you should choose car leasing or car buying. There are many fundamental differences between the two.To help make your decision easier the following is a list of those differences:- At the end of the car loan term you will own a car if you opted to buy. At the end of the car lease term you return the car to the dealer and are left with nothing.- A car loan term is usually four to six years. A car lease term is typically two to four years.- Monthly car loan payments are generally higher than car leasing payments. This is because you are only really only paying for the car’s depreciation during the car lease term plus interest, taxes and service fees.- Most car leases limit the amount of mileage you can put on the vehicle. If you plan on traveling a great deal you will have to consider negotiating a higher mileage limit. This will mean slightly higher monthly payments. If you exceed the limit you will be required to pay a charge of between 10 to 15 cents per mile. If you choose to buy the vehicle this is not an issue.- When leasing a car there are limits to the amount of wear you can cause to the vehicle. Excessive wear will result in extra charges. If you buy you can do what ever you want to your car.- If you terminate a car lease before the term is over there usually is a charge. In the case of car buying if you buy out the remainder before the car loan term is up you are usually charged a fee as well.- The up front costs of car leasing include first month’s auto lease payments, a refundable deposit, a capitalized cost reduction( similar to a down payment), taxes and service fees. The up front costs of car buying include a down payment, taxes, registration and other service fees.- At the end of the car lease term you have to pay any charges for excess wear and mileage then you can either walk away or buy out the car. When you reach the end of the car loan term you have no further payments and you walk away with your car.Consider all these differences before coming to a decision on whether to buy or lease your next vehicle. Your choice will effect quite a lot over the loan or lease term including your monthly auto loan payments as well as what you can do to your vehicle to a certain extent. If you know what your long term goals are it will allow you to select the right option for

RE-FRAMING JIHAD AND ARMAGEDDON TO AVERT A NUCLEAR WAR
So liberation and the long-awaited return of the Islamic Master from the well needs to be reframed to understand that the Islamic master meant that the evil in the world needs to be destroyed in an inner battle. This is not a literal war! The mis-interpretation of this statement by making it literal amounts using the negative destructive principle of outer violence to bring about a positive creative principle. That is not possible. Instead, a positive inner violence is needed that cleanses and washes away sin and illusions.
This is possible. In Hinduism Shiva is called the Great Destroyer. But such destruction makes use of the positive destructive principle. It is the removal of sin and illusion! Correction of this mistaken and reframing it to mean an Inner Jihad against the evil within, would radically change the current misguided world-wide motivation, (Which desires to literally create an Armageddon nuclear war in order to the Islamic master from the well that he entered hundreds of years ago). This literal idea is a deviation from the inner original intended symbolical meaning of freeing the master within from the mistaken identification with evil, (the Well and an Inner Prison are synonymous concepts).
Creating an outer Apocalypse as the means to bring heaven to earth is a mistaken literalizing of a spiritual truth. This inner Islamic master, (synonymous with Christ within trapped within our own inner evil), can be freed from the evil within. The Islamic Kingdom of God on earth can be reestablished in a spiritual way that awakens, the inner Islamic Master, without an outward Jihad. This is the true liberation of the Master Within. Nuclear war can be averted if a new understanding of this principle awakens outer warriors that the REAL war is within.
