Dear President Obama
and Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon,
Inter-Religious unity

Religion and Society: Dynamics of Religions of the World:
http://www.religions-congress.org/content/blogcategory/27/41/lang,english/
God has provided a way
to unite the religions. It is as simple as
each religion cleansing
itself by going back to the written texts sent
from God and put aside
all that man added.
In 2 Nephi 29 He has
said He has commanded all nations to write and it
shall be found to be
the same thing. I have seen the proofs.
In all major religions,
there is One Supreme God who created all and
directs all. Anything other is sent by God. He proclaims He is the
same, yesterday, today
and forever; He changes not. Religions were
not to change to fit
the culture; the different cultures developed
because they went away
from IT IS WRITTEN. We see the result: a world
polluting itself to death,
under great stress and servitude one to
another to make gain
from one another. This is not the abundant life
God promised believers
of any religion.
God has sent a written
word to guide people; it is failure to follow
what was written that
leads to different denominations and religions.
God did not call for
tolerance, He calls for repentance. It is the
doing of God’s
will that results in an abundant life, a garden
paradise lifestyle of
living, loving and enjoying life by loving God,
family and neighbors
in the way God calls love. Jesus – Isa-Yeshua
said, “First take
the beam out of your own eye; then shall you see
clearly to take the speck
out of your brother’s eye.” (Matthew 7:5)
Each religion and person
must be first to go back to IT IS WRITTEN;
then they will see where
their errors were and can help others.
The God of the whole
earth speaks to be followed. That is our
provision, our protection
and our deliverance from our God-ignoring
ways and tribulations
we brought upon ourselves.
Examples Of Unity as
recorded in 2 Nephi 29 (I have spoken to all
nations the same.)
God spoke through many
prophets, but it was always God. The prophets
were nothing without
God. We are in the Great Apostasy God warned us
of. None are following the word of God, but follow commentators and
doctrines and practices
man put in place.
Moses: Man shall live by every word out of the mouth of God. (Deuteronomy
8:3)
Jesus: Same: (Matthew 4:4)
Muhammad: (Qur’an, Ahmad. Numbers)
5.68 “O Messenger! Convey to the people what
has been revealed to
thee from thy Lord; and
if thou do it not, thou hast not conveyed His
Message at all. …
5.69 Say, “O People of the Book! You stand on
nothing until you
observe the Torah and
the Gospel and what has been sent down to you
from your Lord.”…
That is what God said
through Moses and Jesus said. (Torah is called Law)
(Bhati-rasamrta-sindhu
1.2.101) “Devotional service of the Lord that
ignores authorized Vedic
literatures like the Upanisads, PURANAS and
Naradapancaratha is simply
an unnecessary disturbance in society.”
(The Bible is a PURANAS,
having creation details, genealogy, human
history, royal dynasties,
religious and secular matters.) They tell
how God interacts with
mankind. It is always blessings for obedience
and cursing and problems
for disobedience.
Buddhist: (Udana IV.6): “They know not the Law. They know not what
is not the law. In their ignorance of these things, they are by
nature quarrelsome wrangling
and vastly disputatious, each maintaining
it is this and thus.”
Dhammapada is The Way
of the Law
Gita 16:23, 24: Krsna answered, “He who discards scriptural
injunctions and acts
according to his own whims, attains neither
perfection, nor happiness,
nor the supreme destination.”
16:24 “One should therefore understand what is duty
and what is not
duty by the regulations
of the scriptures. Knowing such rules and
regulations, one should
act so that he may gradually be elevated.”
When each religion does
what is commanded in their holy books, they
will find unity. It is trying to hold onto a denominational name
wherein divisions prevail. We must first believe that all we have
learned is in error and
begin with IT IS WRITTEN with a heart and mind
cleared from prejudices
toward our own religion. It is the One God of
the whole world that
we seek to follow. Differences will be settled
within the cleansing
of our own religion. The expectation of each
religion encompassing
the world will be fulfilled, for it is the same
religion.
God bless you in your
endeavor for peace.
