Proposals for a Reform of the Church
Modern Spirituality,
Introduction
The following does not all need to be shared. It is a roadmap, towards a modern spirituality and a modern church. Step by step one can integrate one or the other, depending on the response.
There is a lot of suffering and violence in families. But that doesn't mean you dissolve the family. Is this not the same with the church? Here are a few impulses for reform. Of course, you can't do everything at once, but one thing at a time, so as not to overwhelm people. But stagnation is very dangerous!
Contact people who no longer go to church and ask them why. This could also be done in written, anonymous form.
👉 Have pastoral officers or deacons preach as an alternative.
👉 Offer talks and coffee / tea etc. after church.
👉 Offer house groups to create more commitment.
👉 Invite good preachers.
👉 Possibly read out prefabricated good sermons to relieve the pastors.
Communicate that people can connect directly with God through their heart, as described by Anselm Grün. Paradise and hell are within us!
👉 Make creative church services that also reach the youth.
👉 Perhaps establish a working group to deal with the problem and take measures. What do the other congregations that have many worshipers have?
👉 The role of women must be equal to those of men in the church. Female spirituality is a very great enrichment and important for everyone!
👉 Women must also be able to become priests and bishops.
👉 Priests must have the freedom to marry. Valuable personnel is lost to the Church.
👉 Churches should always be open to everyone. This is the case with mosques
👉 In every mosque there is a water point and toilets that are always open. Why not in the churches or communities too?
👉 Why doesn't the church stay out of political issues? After all, one can remain silent on certain issues. Also about vaccination. It is not advertised in the mosques. That is a very personal decision of everyone. Does the church have the appropriate departments to recognise truths? It is not only since the Relotius case that the leading media have been known to lie. But the churches can easily obtain independent and objective information (1).
The clergy should not place themselves between God and man. They can help the faithful on the path of faith until people discover the light in their hearts.
- They provide the rituals.
- They can communicate a healthy life and heal spiritual.
- They take on the task, like in a company, to serve as a role model, to supervise and manage everything, to remove tensions, to build communities e.g. through youth work, men's and women's circles, house circles, social issues, one world work, fair trade etc.
- They take care of finances and popularity.
- Marriage and family counselling is a very important institution.
👉 Man can connect directly with Jesus, God, or his higher self. Prayer and meditation is a way to do this. Meditation as a form of prayer could be an integral part of worship, as is successfully practised in Taizé. This gives people the opportunity to listen into themselves and promotes peace and health.
👉 One reading and the sermon above it is enough! Too many different impulses have less effect.
👉 Isn't it important to communicate that religious life can also include regular quiet time, prayer, meditation or Bible study?
👉 The church must not be misused to serve power or state interests.
👉 The church needs a feedback system to ensure development and innovation.
👉 We are the instruments and servants of the Creator. We humans can make the world a paradise! It is enough for the evil one if we do nothing and leave everything to the Creator! This means that faith and commitment belong inseparably together. This is an important message to believers. It is very important, depending on one's disposition, to also do something for the community and the big picture, just like the bees do.
👉 Everything is connected to everyone! We also have a responsibility for where we can make a difference. And fall into guilt when we allow injustice that we could prevent.
Call attention to sin to set the sinner on the right path! But do not accuse the sinner!
👉 The numerous contradictions in the Bible would have to be revised.
👉 The Gospel of Thomas should be included in the canon, because it describes Jesus and his message very precisely.
👉 The great Aquarian Gospel should be made known as a new version.
👉 Reincarnation is even scientifically proven () and should be included in the teachings. Souls are reborn here on earth until they return to where they came from, paradise.
👉 The basic law of the cosmos, what I do falls back on me, should be part of the teaching. This could prevent many cruelties, because then it is clear that with bad deeds or speeches I harm myself and generate my own suffering or vice versa!
👉 Suffering or illnesses are not meaningless, but usually have a message. Suffering can serve growth, Jesus also suffered a lot! Great suffering can cause great leaps in development. In any case, it is a good message.
👉 Nature is part of creation and thus a reflection of the Creator! When we honour and love fellow human beings and nature, we also honour and love the Creator. From this follows a heart relationship with fellow human beings and with nature. From this follows the commitment to human beings and to the protection of nature, the preservation of creation.
Angels are at our side. They only act when we ask them to. This is a very positive and important message.
👉 The body also has an intelligent consciousness, almost like a person. We should treat it gratefully, well and lovingly.
👉 Loving yourself, the consciousness of the body is very important and also the basis to love others. This has nothing to do with narcissism and egoism. It is a love of the heart!
👉 It is very important to live your talents! Otherwise life can become a theme miss! There is a very hard parable about this!
👉 Suicide, just like murder, is a very serious offence. We did not give ourselves life, can we then take it away? This is important to communicate.
👉 It's about character development. A believing person with many human faults would ruin paradise! The key or password to paradise is character. It is to develop and shape this that we are here.
Forgiveness is not unconditional! You have to compensate for the suffering you have caused through good deeds. An energetic balance is important.
Life is a school where it is about maturing in character and love. The highest is unconditional love. We can train this here. Many experiences help us to do this.
👉 God relationship, religious community, prayer and commitment belong inseparably together, see James letter.
👉 Power, wisdom and love are the prerequisites to bring about constructive things.
Optional
👉 The basic laws of the cosmos, the hermetic laws should flow into the teaching (http://e.pc.cd/xnTotalK ).
👉 We are not alone in the cosmos. There are numerous other worlds, most of which live more harmoniously with each other. We are a problem case for the cosmos!
👉 We must not rely on the leading media, but must also inform ourselves independently (1). Ignorance does not protect from punishment.

Appendix
Aberrations of the Church
The text "The Lord and His Servant" from 1664 was circulated in various text variations. Here is a version in simple language adapted to the time.
By the Lord is meant Christ riding on a donkey. And by his servant is meant the Pope, bishops or some clergy, who often come along in expensive cars, according to a Spiegel survey. Whereas the Pope is currently different.
The Lord comes on a poor donkey,
the servant with the highest splendour and adornment.
The Lord wears a crown of thorns,
the servant wears a triple golden crown.
The Lord was poor in this world,
the servant has great power and money.
The Lord washed the disciples' feet,
the servant is often served and lives at the expense of others.
The Lord suffered much shame and ridicule,
The servant often lets himself be honoured as God.
The Lord gives blessings, peace and joy,
The servant divides, causing strife and no joy.
The Lord built up groups who lived by the word of our Creator,
the servant fought them fiercely, tortured, murdered and destroyed them.
The Lord was persecuted and crucified,
The Servant kept on murdering, through the Crusades and much more.
The Lord commanded (ordered) "put in thy sword",
The Servant blesses even the weapons of war (2).
The Lord is our Prince of Peace,
the Servant does not do enough to prevent bloodshed and violence.
The Lord remains our faithful shepherd,
the servant did all to increase power and wealth.
The Lord lived humbly and laboriously,
The servant rises above all.
The Lord was meek and merciful.
the servant harshly led a worldly kingdom.
The Lord exhorts to keep the commandments,
the servant too often ignores them.
The Lord loves all people equally,
the servant only loves those who are equal and rich.
The Lord respects each sex equally,
The servant, however, often despises the woman.
The Lord died as a sacrificial lamb,
the servant allowed millions to die in war.
The Lord brought salvation to the people,
the servant reduced many to ashes at the stake or in war.
The Lord seeks all who are lost,
The servant waits in the church for those already "converted".
The Lord warned against mammon, the power of money,
the servant calls this God's wealth.
Now whoever is serious about his soul and blessedness and whoever wants to come to glory will serve the Lord Christ and not the Antichrist.
Excerpt from the 1664 poem.... "The Lord and His Servant"

What is the true Christ, what is the Antichrist?
To understand the nature of the Antichrist, we must first understand what 'the Christ' is: the Christ goes far beyond Jesus the Nazarene. It is a state of consciousness that one reaches when one has become completely one with one's Higher Self, and thus with the whole universe. It is a state of all-encompassing love, of being connected with all life. You could call it merging with God. Jesus exemplified for us what it means to become a 'Christ'. He proved that this can be achieved as an embodied human being, each one of us.
When we have achieved this oneness with God, then His light and power flows unhindered through our being and can work 'miracles' through us.
In oneness with the divine love energy - in Christ-bus consciousness - lies boundless, invincible power. The slogan of the anti-Christ, on the other hand, is: Divide et impera! - Divide and rule! Where the Christ unites, the anti-Christ wants to divide. If the Christ represents the eternal, unchanging law, the Antichrist stands for its reversal. Wherever the truth is twisted, the energy of the Antichrist spreads.

(2) The son of a German soldier who took part in the Russian campaign during the Second World War knew how to report about his father: "He didn't tell me much about the war, but he did describe one thing to me vividly: Before the big offensive against the East started, the tanks were lined up and the priest walked them with the crucifix in his hand, blessed them and then said a prayer with the soldiers about loving one's neighbour. He emphasised the 10 Commandments and especially the commandment "Thou shalt not kill". Since this experience, his father had nothing more to do with the church and never went to church again. It all seemed too hypocritical to him.
