![WHAT IS THE BUDDHIST RELIGION OF JAINISM? [2 of 2] Jesus talked about the Jewish Pharisees forcing their followers to perform prescribed works as the way to supposedly reach a pleasant afterlife, the same sort of works that today’s Jainism (an offshoot of Buddhism) holds their people to. What did Christ say about people who force followers to perform manmade tasks as the supposed ticket to heaven? He called the Pharisees what they were: fools and hypocrites. Here is Jesus addressing the Pharisees in Matthew 23:15 and 27:"Woe to you, blind guides! You go over
land and sea to win a single convert, and when he becomes one,
you make him twice as much a son of hell as you are…; You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside, but on the inside are full of dead men’s bones and every kind of impurity.” The Pharisee’s rules where false teachings, useless burdens put on people. Completely contrary to what the Pharisees prescribed, Jesus had the people follow Him, promising this at the end of Matthew 11: "Come to Me…you will find rest for your souls. My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” But even today, because people refuse to accept Christ’s free gift of salvation, those caught in false religions like Jainism continue to suffer under Pharisee-type rules, not to mention risking an eternity away from God, ending
up in hell, if they don’t accept Jesus before their death. | image tagged in jainism,buddhism,hindu,god,bible,jesus | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/5ylfaf.jpg)
![WHAT IS THE BUDDHIST RELIGION OF JAINISM? [1 of 2] “Jain” simply means “conqueror,” and “ism” is a “doctrine, cause, or theory,” so a Jainist is a “conqueror from the bondage of this world.” That foundational belief of Jainism sounds like the Hindu idea that we all must escape the bonds of reincarnation, life’s supposed cycle of continuous birth and death which is caused by our bad karma built up in previous lives. The similar views make sense because Jainism is another spin-off from Buddhism, which came out of Hinduism. The works-based aspect of Jainism—the same, tired, old claim that we all must
work our own way to heaven—is similar to the beliefs and practices
of Jewish leaders during the time Jesus walked the earth. Christ had to deal with the Pharisees and all their onerous, manmade rules and traditions that they relentlessly put on the Jewish people. The Pharisees came up with crazy decrees, like not spitting at the ground on the Sabbath. Why in the world would that matter? Well, having the right trajectory, your spit might hit the dirt with a strong enough force to roll through the dust; thus, you would be plowing a tiny trough—how dare you work on the Sabbath. This is just one of a million examples
where man’s rules have been put on people to religiously control
them with constant threats on their eternal lives. | image tagged in jainism,buddhism,hindu,god,bible,jesus | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/5ylev4.jpg)
![WHERE DO THOUGHTS OF SUICIDE OFTEN COME FROM? [1 of 2] Demons work with Satan, and the Bible’s John 8 tells us the devil is the father of all lies, as well as a murder. So, it's no surprise that someone who gets possessed by a demon would have that foul spirit try to kill its host. As Christians we have the Holy Spirit in us and He will not share space with demons, so they cannot possess us. But when I was involved with the occult before getting saved, I was not just demonically oppressed, but most likely multiply-possessed. This was my own doing. I had asked these entities to come inside me in hopes
of receiving power, not understanding how dark it would get. So, they obliged, setting up shop and commencing to drive me insane, as their way of killing me. The goal of Satan and his demons is to trick each of us into staying away from Jesus—the only way to heaven—as long as needed for us to take our last breath and end up in hell. And by the way, the types of distractions they throw at us can include getting us involved in the occult. Anything you do is fine with demons, just as long as you don't go down that Jesus route; as long as you don't turn to Jesus on the cross, trusting in His work alone and asking Him to forgive your sins. Why do you think the ecumenical movement
(the push for a one world religion) allows all beliefs except the
biblical reality of confessing that Jesus is the only way? | image tagged in suicide,god,bible,satan,jesus,demon | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/5v1oi4.jpg)
![WHERE DO THOUGHTS OF SUICIDE OFTEN COME FROM? [2 of 2] The entities that so many world religions and cults call spirits are just demons that want your death before you’re able to get saved through Jesus Christ, and one way they can kill you is with your involvement in the occult, which often leads to a shorter life. People who get
entangled with the occult and drug use often commit suicide. Where do you suppose that kind of depression comes from? It's not from the Spirit of God! Who is probably putting that sort of suicidal idea in people's heads? Why are these spirits (demons) so bent on killing people? Again, if a person is tricked into pulling the trigger on themselves before getting saved, they go to hell, so that is a demon's modus
operandi; they want all humans to join them in hell. Demons work for
Satan, who is the father of lies and a murder (John 8:44). | image tagged in suicide,demon,satan,god,bible,jesus | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/5v1ot9.jpg)
![PRINCESS REBECCA [Part 1] Years ago, when we lived on the East Coast, my daughter Rebecca inspired what I think would be an excellent children's book. Like all little girls, she had been reading and watching stories involving knights, princesses, kingdoms, realms, quests, enchanted forests, and all other aspects of mythical, chivalrous lands. She was deeply enamored with the idea of somehow, one day, becoming the princess to a handsome, honorable prince who arrives unexpectedly and ends up being devoted to her only—she’s probably still looking for that. Hearing her passion, God worked on my heart to steer her thinking back toward Him and His Word. How would the Bible best be explained to a little girl enthralled with the idea that Prince Charming would come sweep her up and carry her off to his beautiful castle, where they would marry and live
out the rest of their lives in luxury and happiness. Unfortunately
for Rebecca, she also lived with a common disappointment
that most fairytale-consuming young girls come to realize:; Her parents do not have royal blood, so she is disqualified from nobility. But then, one day, God had to finally smack my head with a thought that should have come to me sooner: Wait a second, that fairytale is the true story of Scripture. We are nobles! At the moment we trust in Jesus’ sacrifice of Himself on the cross, we Christians become born-again and are instantly princes and princesses! As a family of Christians, that means Rebecca’s mother and I have royal blood, and our daughter also received her princess title at the moment she accepted Jesus—the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Christ comes from the most lofty, powerful, borderless kingdom above all kingdoms. In fact, He created and owns everything! Even though God could have scrapped His human project, having no need of us rebellious children who often grieve Him, God
decided to send His only Son—the Prince who volunteered—to
perform the princely act of sacrificing His earthly life. | image tagged in princess,prince,jesus,god,kingdom,christian | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/5yk62w.jpg)
