The Living Life Series is dedicated to Lord (武天) Bo Tien. The doctrine is in His image. The image is the doctrine. He who sees, understands and effects the doctrine sees and knows Him. He who does not see, know and effect the doctrine sees not and knows not the saint even if the saint or His image is beside him. The far may be near and the near may be far. Let the doctrine and the saint be part of our life. The lord saint in your life can be any heavenly saint of any religion, sect or school. The doctrine of truth is behind all and this is the Inner Truth that leads all (regardless of their religious affliliation or even if none) to inner peace and heaven on earth here and now and not just in the after life. The ideal worship and devotion is to know and effect the doctrine of God and the saints. The best gospel is the gospel of life. We learn from our life and the lives of others. The true temple is the world we live in. The sky is the roof of the temple and religions and sects are the pillars of the temple. All under Heaven are in the temple. The whole wide world and web is the temple and must be regarded as a sacred place --- a temple for living and learning. It is more important that everyone that counts plays a role in this universal temple if due focus is to be given to the Mission of Heaven. Men must not be distracted by the agenda of men and end up serving the mission of man. That would be a far cry from the Mission of Heaven.

Respect the laws of the land not just the laws of God

Learning Point No 27



Lord Bo Tien said that all must respect
the laws of the land not just the laws of God





Lord Jesus said, "Give to man what  is due to man and to God what is due to God."

Lord Bo Tien added that the laws of the land need to be respected in matters related to the crown even in a religious gathering. The laws of Heaven too must be respected, not just by those in a place of worship but by all under Heaven. The teachings of saints in different religions and sects may differ but must be respected for they serve their usefulness for the specific people and the times. They are sacrosanct and that is why the second of seven universal precepts directs us to believe in all saints and their teachings.
