Don't hit me with your Bible!

Woah! I'm actually diiggng the actual template/theme on this blog. It's easy, yet successful. A lots of times it is rather hard to acquire that perfect balance between ease of use and physical appearance. I need to say you could have done a great job with this. In inclusion, the weblog loads very quick for us on Safari. Excellent Weblog!

Hey Micky- voted UP- glad i stopped by- been tested this past week and had to remind myself what and who i was dealing with.

The hypocrisy of the world at times near overwhelms me- but having true knowledge of existence keeps me afloat. Ha- it is so very simple isn't it- the words of great men and the heroics of fools many times are interwoven.

thanks for the reminder brother- peace

What a beautiful poem! You have a great gift with words my friend and your words are wise as well. All the better!

Thank you very much for writing this - I do wish it will encourage people to stop and think about the state of our world today.

All the very best!

I love this hub of yours, Micky! You’ve said it all with well-chosen words, and the quotes and scriptures you’ve chosen are absolutely relevant. I’m in full agreement with you and will always love you as I love myself.

And God bless you too. I also enjoy your view of things. Keep up the good works.

I enjoy your thought process, at the end of the day, we all stand out on our own, it is what we do with our life that really counts.

So, to keep the first and second commandments of Jesus, we must come from the perspective of oneness. There can be no divisions in our beings, no dualistic version of 'good and evil,' we must rise above 'I'm right, you're wrong.' We are beings of light, all created by the Living God, all with the spark of the creator at the core of our being.

The torah, qur'an, bible, you name it are words on paper. Without the Word (logos) of God we can not hear anything useful in our beings. This is where the Words of God must come from anyway, the core of our being. Without those Words to back up what these scriptures say, all we have is a bunch of out of date words that really don't help anyone.

Great hub. Thanks for writing it.

Micky, my friend, you've got passion in your soul and fire in your belly and that's why people love you and why you're an inspiration. Keep telling it like it is buddy')

Wow, what a funny and interesting poem you actually shared in here Micky Dee. Honestly am always informed and filled with so much joy and inspiration each time i read your article and this particular one is not an exception,thanks dear for sharing.cheers!

You are great and you prove it time and again. It is the message, the vers and the pictures that make you such a complete and wonderful man that many of us love and respect.

This hub is a perfect reminder to all of us about the greatest commandment of God. You wrote a beautiful interpretation through your poetry. We must apply what we may learn from reading the Bible. You’ve quoted wonderful verses that validate your poem.

Great work as always. Just think what it might be like if mankind went back to oral tradition. Would the WORD not still be the WORD? Would truth not still be the truth? I've always believed that the written word itself is dead because it cannot carry within it the overall beliefs of any man or woman. Once we put it down, we have rooted it to the place it cannot move from. And if our interpretations and understandings are changing on a daily basis - growing and finding deeper depths and higher heights - how can we look back and not say there was something still lacking in what was written previously. How can we not look at the word written in any book, yes, even the Bible, and not say they are dead? Until we put them in us and begin living by them, memorizing and reciting is vain and leads to schisms and war. Peace

There is NOTHING, absolutyl NOTHING that I can disagree with on this hub. Though we may not see eye to eye "politicaly"....this hub nails it all.

I vote up and across the board.

:)

Very thought provoking and very inspiring. Thank you for this Hub. God Bless you!!!!!!!!!!

This hub really is brilliant.

Beautifully said Micky Dee,

Thanks micky. It does appear the world is walking in murkey water for sure..hard to see through it all..Have. A blessed day.

I understand...I know what I believe in my heart. Love our country, respect the authority, love our neighbors.(all of them)..respect one another, I am really alittle confused about republican and democrat right now. I thought I was liberal with some conservative views if that is possbile..and at times I thought I was a republican with some liberal views..I am just screwed up..I don't understand any of it and hate to put myself in a box. I try to comment on a couple political pages but don't want to be connected to a certain view yet until I get in straight in my brain. So much I don't understand. Thanks Mick for serving..my dad was a vietnam vet, got a page dedicated to him..propoganda is deadly.

You and the comment from always exploring said it all! You are one smart, kind and compassionate man who preaches and no doubt follows the Golden Rule. God bless you for what you do and try to impress upon others.

Only one word; brilliant.

Beautiful Mickey, truly beautiful. I was reading what you had wrote on Dim's page this morning and because I do not have any political agenda and do not understand a lot of the political jargon that is written, I have tried to read and make comments so I can learn and be more awake to what is going on around me but I sure do not advocate hate. Thanks for a good reminder.

“Love your neighbor as yourself.

Love each sister and brother.

This is the LAW that I give to you,

You WILL love one another!”

This is what it is all about and I have always believed this to be so.

Sunnie

I like that.

Memorizing passages does not make one holy, but adhering to the golden rule will make one decent. I'll settle for that in this life. Ride on, Micky. Ride on.

This is so beautiful, Micky, thank you for sharing your talent in this written message.

An excellent message for the masses. Bless you, Micky D.

up/awesome

Another loving message this world needs a good dose of...Thank you for using your talents to share them!

Amen Ruby. Mickey, your poetry and views on life are always insightful. Thank you for sharing.

Man can stand on the highest mountain and shout his love for God.He can stand in a Mega church and pray, giving God all praise, yet he forgets the homeless, he forgets to feed the hungry, he proclaims his love for mankind, yet forgets that there are many differenf kinds of men who speak in many different tongues, read many different bibles ( books ) have different skin colors, they are all one in God's eyes. There is no one race above the other. Micky your message here is love. If we love we are doing God's commandment. If we lack that love, yet still stand and proclaim Godliness, we are fools and God never knew us.Thank you, another great hub to make us think about love.

Amen, my brother. Beautifully, perfectly stated.

Yet another wonderful hub. For people to all believe like this it would mean that the love of power would die. Wouldn't that be the best day of all?

Oh Mickey Dee, keep spreading your depth of understanding with the world. Perhaps one day, we will get it! I so appreciate you.

This was lovely, Micky. All so true and beautifully written. You just get better , the more you write. l love the thought that ¨Love conquers all¨.

take care, love you, man,

I have to wonder how many times I'll think that you've out done yourself. Keep it up, and you'll be a folk hero in the ages to come!

Those who think they are better than other because they hold the best and the truth, seem keep forgetting about being humble and respectful to others. Holier than thou attitude never fails to degrading their own religion.So sad!

"Countless times it is written.

Countless times, it’s been said.

But the oceans’ waters rise,

From tears cried for the dead."

We do not learn fom our mistakes, nor from the teachings of our Lord, and time mounts with these tragedies as the ocean shares the depth and taste of our tears.

Bless you, Rob.

"Don’t just commit to memory,

Scriptures as a tool,

To prove that your brother man,

Is lacking and just a fool."

I especially liked this part. It happens too often.

Thanks Micky, for another refreshing hub full of wonderful scriptures and powerful message.

Thought of you today as there was a big bike race going on in the town I live.

God bless you, Rob.

Amen brother! Peace!! Tom and Justin

I shall “Love and hold our God with awe.” for I am simply a speck of sand in an ocean. Thank you brother man for posting this I to share your opinion. We must LOVE our God with all our hearts and minds as well as our fellow man/woman/child. Peace my friend.

You must know I share your opinion in this matter...

"But the oceans’ waters rise,

From tears cried for the dead."

Yes!
