Jesus was sent to the lost children of Israel Matthew 15: 24. The Trinity including Jesus is alive? There are personal relationships with the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit?

I’m listening to doctors, healers.

There is a situation today where there is no Come to Jesus moment for children, where there is not Come to Jesus moment for the lost children (including adults) of Israel.

The Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit must not exist, really.
Innocence and hope can no longer be given out or restored by religion or the Trinity or St. Joseph.

The Lancet says, not 40,000+ but 186,000+.

I am listening to doctors, healers, scientists.

Dr. Ehrman recently posted about having your religion replaced–losing your own religion.

Goodness is ingrained in children and healers.
Is that just a psychological operations having to objective truth?

** you do not have permission to see this link **

We faced what happened in the 1940s and still came out believing there was a Jesus, a Heavenly Father, and a Holy Spirit.
We faced what happened in the Civil Rights in the U.S. and we came out still believing.
What’s going on today … are we justified to believe?
We are justified to live out the psychological operation, the psy-op.

But as an objective author on the topic of Christianity, what should Dr. Ehrman write?

As an objective author on the topic of goodness, what should Dr. Ehrman write?

Weren’t there a group of good politicians in the Age of Pericles?
They were defeated.

Goodness is only an idea. It is not an objectified personification that actually exists.

Anyone who wants to counter, do.

I cannot remember the good politicians in Athens who tried to keep the Age of Pericles going, I think.

Maybe this Group of Seven? did not have to do with the Age of Pericles but the outcome of the Athens-Sparta war.

Maybe they were great philosopher-warriors.

God’s problem.

The suffering of the pediatric healers.

It’s not God’s problem, it is our problem.
Carl Jung was correct when he defined God this way:

Second, all we have are our spirit guides, loving ancestors, benevolent past civilization wisdom (I Ching), benevolent aliens, our highest ideals, and teachers, healers, good influencers.

Yes, but shadow does not mean evil / unhealed psychopathy / sociopathy / mental illness or the same that cannot be healed.

The astrologer in me says human nature is programmed for some of the evil we see.

So we need some Crime and Punishment and decreasing recidivism.

Jesus dying for our sins did not reduce recidivism.

I was told the Dallas police dealt with 18,000 car theft in one year.
And when you set up an economy where people cannot make it by being holy, unholiness is ingrained.
