Christ for the Spider Crystals

A problem that some evangelists might have when trying to convert the Spider Crystals of Arcturus is that some of them are already listening on all frequencies – including the Christ channel – but all of them are immobile so there's not that much trouble they can get into other than thought-crimes (which just don't happen in their culture).

So are they damned for Eternity, or what?

Yeah,....wait, what?

As an aside, if the number 666 is considered evil then 25.8069758 is the root of all evil.

Clever, Ghost.

Love of money’s the root of all evil.

So if you love having $25 and change in your pocket, that’d be evil (by your way of thinking.)

Two things are holding us back as a species, one being subservient to our own imagined deities and the other humanity's greatest frailty, greed. (I would include 'power' as well as money). It's the reason socialism doesn't work with humans, on a fundamental level, not wanting to be entirely equal. (Resulting in corruption etc.)

This weakness will hopefully evolve ...[text shortened]... id. (On Saturday the 330m-long asteroid 4660 Nereus will break into Earth's orbit. Fingers crossed.)

Thanks for info on that asteroid; first I’m hearing of it.

But I believe your post is contradictory in that if one were truly subservient to God, one would not be greedy.

Man is greedy and corrupt by nature. That’s what man is without God.

Man is greedy and corrupt by nature because he evolved as a species. Greed and self interest were a means of survival.

@ghost-of-a-duke said
The problem is there are many Christians, transformed by the Holy Spirit, who continue to live a life motivated by greed. If you're looking for a contradiction, there you have it.

@pb1022 said
We disagree on the source of man’s greed and corruption, but in your view, those traits appear irreversible. In my view of the source - abandoning God - they’re not irreversible.

@pb1022 said
They obviously are not living in the Spirit if they are living a life motivated by greed.

@ghost-of-a-duke said
I haven't met many Christians void of greed. Are all the ones succumbing to this human frailty fake Christians? Is that your position?

Why doesn't 'living in the Spirit' entirely eradicated greed?!

@pb1022 said
Void of greed and living a life of greed are two different things.

No Christian is perfect but a Christian who is living in the Spirit (also referred to as walking in the Spirit and keeping in step with the Spirit) will not be greedy.

Greed is a result of a Christian not trusting God - at least not trusting Him sufficiently.

@ghost-of-a-duke said
No, you haven't properly read what I wrote. Did I not say that in the coming centuries we may evolve out of such weaknesses? Did I not say that? How does that equate with greed being irreversible?

As stated, greed was in our nature as a means of survival. As we progress further as a species, hopefully these basic instinct will diminish and be eradicated.

Why aren't Christians perfect when living in the Spirit? Isn't God perfect?
