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.

Know the Word and know God

Learning Point No 325





The greatest service to God is to know the Word and live in the Word so that we will be able to nurture God in us. This Word was there even before the beginning and many fail to realise that. This the sages of old in China did say. 'Tao' is the Word.

The greatest disservice to God is not to know the Word and to idolise God. Had not God said that He should not be idolised in any way? 

We are given a brain to think and to see the logic or rationale in every aspect of life. This was referred to as Tao (Way) or Tou-li (Logical Thinking).  

Those who teach not the Word but instead in its place the Worship of God are not in tune with God. God is not there for us to idolise. Will idolising God have any lasting benefit if men know not the Word and do not live in and by the Word?  

Who is closer to God? Is he the man who lives in the Word or the man who idolises God and yet knows not the Word? 

For the man who knows not the Word knows not God even if he claims to worship God. The best gift we can give to God is to live in The Word and nurture the Godliness in us. 

God will bless those who live in the Word. Why? Haven't we heard that the Word is God?  

For such men who live in the Word will be at peace with life. There is no fear of life, come what may for they are at peace with the ups and downs, the yang and yin, the dualities of life. 

There is no fear of life for sure, let alone fear of God, simple because God is in them. They have the Word in them and the Word is God. 

Know the Word and know God. The Word is God.
