Subject: Love is not a feeling |
Bible Note: Dear John Your very informative quote on what love is, intrigued me greatly, I have done some searching, and found some other quotes from your favorite well known Author, and Psychiatrist - M. Scott Peck I see that he is in your estimation, a perfect example of the type of person, that could truly express the kind of love as taught by Jesus, in the Bible. These quotes of your Mr. Peck, and more can be found at - - - Ascension Gateway.com 1) “Nirvana or lasting enlightenment or true spiritual growth can be achieved only through persistent exercise of real love.” 2) But for the first time, I had a religious identity. I had come home. And so I called myself a Zen Buddhist at the age of 18. 3) I can remember years ago sitting on my bed and suddenly thinking, "I am God." 4) God wants us to become himself or herself or itself. We are growing toward Godhood. God is the goal of evolution. I much prefer this as a definitive definition, and a much more reliable source. ( 1 Cor.13:4-7 ) Bless You YenIsaRap |
