The Gospel of Doug: The Son of Man

Who is the Son of Man? Was and is He a magician, able to make our dreams come true? Or a genie?  Was and is He, a loving hippie type of personality that only wants love, peace and harmony?
      In scriptures, it is obvious He is none of these things. Jesus Christ  is God in the flesh. He appearance in the world, is an attempt to establish and explain what our relationship with God the Father should be.  His life is an example of what this relationship should look like. . .  We can not and will not experience God's love fully, until we turn our lives over to God, completely and wholly.  That to me, in this time of Covid, means not putting our faith in cloth masks, or in Science, but understanding our lives are in God's hands. His Will be done. Closing churches to prevent deaths only shows a lack of faith in God's plans. It shows how flawed organized religion has become. We have to share in God's kindness, and understand it, before we can share it with others. This kindness isn't about acceptance, or tolerance, it is about learning what God expects from each and everyone of us, and then attempting to live up to those expectations .  The Son of Man is our guide, our big brother, helping find our way back home.
