People need to realize that the full complexity of The All is SO vast, SO
inscrutable, that any of use are only able to percieve narrow cross
sections. Hence, the difference between one person's vision and another's
must neccessarily be so far from the full truth as to render the
distinctions moot. Hence, tolerance is strongly suggested. To the
'mainstream' Christion, the Shamanistic outlook seems silly and primitive.
The Wiccan has another perspective, and can't fathom how Christians can
believe what they believe. I am convinced that all true seekers have PART
of
the Truth, but it is a Truth that will always exceed our ability to fully
fathom it, even in our most fully evolved spiritual state.
There is no "fully evolved spiritual state", for we are always maturing
spiritually. Our Christian "God is love" (1 John 4:8,16). Therefore
Christians are saved by love and loving. See below
Wiccans are into power, which is the antithesis of love, for power
destroys love and replaces love with fear.
Pastor Frank
1Jn:4:8: He that loveth not, knoweth not God; for GOD IS LOVE.
1Jn:4:16: And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us.
GOD IS LOVE; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
