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.

God is all love and that is the truth

Learning Point No 233






God and the saints have all to do with love, unconditional love, no threat and no bargain. Where there is conditional love, threat or bargain, that is not the love of God and saints for all beings. But why can't God give us paradise here and now? The problem is not in God and saints but in us. He gave us choice and freewill and we have to learn step by step. He and his saints will shelter the candle flame of our life but it is us who will have to nurture our own candle flame. This candle flame analogy was referred to by Lord Bo Tien. Even the candle flame of those in Hell will be sheltered but they too need to nurture and grow the candle flames of their lives. This is simple truth isn't it? Truth is love and truth is simple but difficult for many to believe because they are caught up with the complexities of life which the ancient sages in China referred to as the dualities of yin and yang.
