Kingdom of God

Today the sins are within the limits of certain control. What is the reason for this? Do you think that these courts and police system are controlling sins? People always have discovered loop holes in every system. The only control of the sins is the concept of God that was established since several generations by the valuable ancient tradition. People are controlled to some extent only due to fear of God and the hell created by God. People know that God knows everything and does not require any witness. Therefore, there is no argument of any case in the hell. There is no need of any advocate in the hell. The sin is shown to you through the divine television which is protected as picture. This is the meaning of word Chitragupta. Such divine concepts are only controlling the sins.

Do not think that such concepts are really unreal but they are useful to control the sins and so should be retained. I assuredly tell you that such concepts are really real. Your ignorance of the truth cannot make it unreal. If you are unaware of the snake in the darkness, it does not mean that the snake is unreal. You will know the reality of snake, when it bites you. Therefore, the propagation of divine knowledge and devotion can alone change the society.

When all the human beings become the real devotees of the Lord doing the real worship, God is pleased with such divine society. His grace will fall on such society. There will be no problem for any soul. One has to search for the trace of some problem in such society. The only problem in such society will be the absence of any problem! This is the permanent solution. This was the dream of Jesus which is the meaning of His word “Kingdom of God.” Leaving this, if you put any amount of effort, it will be only thronging spoons of sugar in to the ocean to turn it sweet.

sridatta1, I find your post to be a little upsetting, but maybe that is what is needed, I don't know.

One of the reasons why I left the Christianity of my younger years was because of the fierce, hostile rhetoric in the preaching, and the concept of an everlastting hell. I have found Sanatan Dharm, especially vedanta to be much more compassionate. The way I see it is that God gives us infinite chances through Samsara in order to work off our karma and draw neare to him. Eventually all beings will experience Moksha/Nirvana.
Of course there is a hell that we can sink to but it is not forever, the doors are not locked, and we can reverse our course in time.

Shanti

Jack
