MONTHLY THEME OCTOBER-NOVEMBER 2007 (SPECIAL EDITION)

A Common Word between Us and You.

We celebrate this recently released letter In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful.

A quote from the Summary and Abridgment states:“Muslims and Christians together make up well over half of the world’s population. Without peace and justice between these two religious communities, there can be no meaningful peace in the world. The future of the world depends on peace between Muslims and Christians.”

How true this statement rings. It is with great hope that we joyfully announce the publication of this letter. The time has never been more appropriate for such a noble endeavor. While the reactions and responses have been varied, the one thing that everyone must agree on here is that it's worth the effort. The true call of our Creator, that one spiritual reality that transcends any human definition, is that we may unite as a species and perfect in loving harmony. Remember, the things that unite us far outweigh the things that divide us. As I have mentioned several times over the decades, there is only ONE reality. There is only ONE way that all things have come to be and there is only ONE way that things continue to be manifest. Whether you believe in GOD and Creation or not, the actual events that have and continue to unfold are exactly the same. It is only our perception that differs.

There is only one REALITY, and it is because of this simple fact that we need heed the wisdom in this Common Word. I encourage each and everyone of us to read and study this document, as well as read (or hopefully re-read) your own scriptures and those of other beliefs. As you ponder the messages and lessons in these great works, look for those things that point clearly to the REALITY of our Creators message. Look for those admonitions to Love one another, and forgive and tolerate one another. Look for those eloquent calls for simple understanding and you will see the great mystery unveiled. Like facets on a beautifully cut gemstone, we are all part of one event. We are all part of one Human family. We are all inhabitants of one magnificent jewel called Earth.

Let us celebrate this enlightened document, and appreciate the spirit behind it's creation. Not so that one faith can be elevated above another. Not so that one Religion can be right and others be wrong. Let us celebrate this because we all choose to Love GOD and accept our great creators call to Love one another. It takes two legs to stand and walk and run, a right and a left. It takes two hands to mold the clay, or embrace the child. It takes two eyes and two ears to triangulate true distance and position. Not withstanding those who have but one or even none of these things, it takes all types of beliefs and concepts to truly understand the nature of our Creator. We are all observing that same wonderful creation we call Reality. Let us unite in our desire to observe and exist in peaceful co-habitation. Let us peacefully share eternity and together face our common challenges. We are stronger united than any of us are divided.

In the way of our Messiah's and our Profits, our Healers and our Teachers.

Amen!
