Lovebooks and Death

*******

Love Ministries, Inc. now has written, published, and distributes twenty books about the fascinating subjects of spiritual psychology and practical lifedesign, ennucleated around Love.

The diabetes continues to be a challenge, but has not yet been lethal-- although I've little doubt that it will, mercifully and ecstatically, take me out of this world, in time.:):) But the being of Love must work hard to shake off the tough cultural program that death is "bad." For it is a process as natural as the shining dewdrop's reflecting the bright morning sun on the petal of a new rose. And the afterlife is fantastic!

(I've written a novel about the Afterlife world, called the "Homeworld,"
if you would like to receive a copy. It is an "adult" novel about real life, and is not recommended for kids. It is called Luminous Ecstasies and Passions: Journeys Into Afterlife. And if you do want a copy, please just send along your snailmail address.

Always Double-check!

*******

If you looked up the word Elohim, I congratulate you. It is always good and wise to double-check our sources. It is always possible that I can be in error.

But in this case, I am not wrong. The Hebrew word elohim is definitely a plural word. It does NOT mean "God," even though much tradition, based on the King James Version, supports this falsehood. The word definitely means "gods."

What was the name of the reference-work in which you looked the word up? For fundy churches have produced an entire library of false "reference" works that are unreliable, and it is possible that you used one of these.

Always remember this very valuable principle: Just because a statement appears in a book, that alone does not guarantee that it is correct. In the history of religion, especially, tens of thousands of falsehoods and errors have appeared in print, in books. Still, you are very wise to question everything that I say, and also, that everyone else says.

Thanks for staying "on your guard," and double-checking on this. This is precisely what a good student should do!
