Or he's a false ...Rufus Opus is not a prophet. Or he's a false prophet.<br /><br />Rufus says everything you do will eventually lead to things being all right. Just do your will, and you'll be good. You'll gain riches, love, your will, etc.<br /><br />A prophet tells you everything will go to hell if you don't repent. You must turn away from yourself, and turn back to God (the Source, the Divine, whatever). Maybe it will go to hell even if you do what the Divine wants. See Jeremiah chapters 14, 28.<br /><br />I'm not saying that what Rufus says isn't correct, or useful. I'm not saying he can't be an inspiration. <br /><br />I am saying that Prophet is not his title. And to you I say: If you are not inspired, even sent, by the Lord to warn of calamity, do not claim the title of prophet. If you speak of peace, you will be proved false, for the Lord did not send you. <br /><br />I have met prophets, men and women sent by God to warn of calamity. They've been correct, but they were not nearly as personable as RO is. He's no prophet, he's not nearly disagreeable enough.Monsignor Scott Rassbachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11685549734111626335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25882546.post-72285347918482415972012-11-18T01:35:39.688-05:002012-11-18T01:35:39.688-05:00So then is sin, for a magician, to ignore or repre...So then is sin, for a magician, to ignore or repress that yearning to express their will?The Unlikely Magehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17240640320016617550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25882546.post-59193175362253245862012-11-17T21:50:54.696-05:002012-11-17T21:50:54.696-05:00"and you will do what you must.
Because you ..."and you will do what you must. <br />Because you can."<br /><br />You and Deb at Charmed I'm Sure are my personal prophets at this point, Frater. It's nice to be reminded that other people still remember and ascribe to the idea that some of us do things not out of some sort of masochism, but because we're Told To. This is hard. Is some of the hardest stuff I've ever been Told to do. But I think that when I come out the other side, even I won't believe what I could and did do.The ocelothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08158052946010994691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25882546.post-12482734477468772252012-11-17T13:51:32.578-05:002012-11-17T13:51:32.578-05:00All I can say is, I read this, and it hit me. So m...All I can say is, I read this, and it hit me. So much so, that I started to read again. As I was doing so, memories and feelings from my childhood came rushing through. I had a very difficult and painful childhood. I always, to my recollection, felt a sort of wistfulness that I could never account for. I was very much loved by my mom, but in school, I had a tough time fitting in. Music and books becamee my refuge.I hated the neighborhood where I grew up and wanted desperately to escape.<br /><br />I did make my escape but I am still wandering through the desert! I still feel that I am not "among my people". Indeed I am Moses, and it has been a very long and arduous journey. Wonderful post!Evienoreply@blogger.com
