Subject: “A Dynamic Faith.”
Message received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “The faith a human being needs most is not blind faith. Blind faith is generally the kind of faith that the religions of dogma demand from their followers — a faith that doesn’t allow doubt, critique, or honest examination. The kind of faith that promotes spiritual growth is the one that inspires a person to explore within and to find the answers for her sincere questions. This is a dynamic faith because it invariably demands action from the individual. It is not an attitude of acceptance without question. It is to plant the seeds of hope, suggesting the idea that there is something ‘out there’ that deserves to be explored.
“A dynamic faith is able to survive deceptions and disillusions. Science has often demystified the traditions and dogma of the past, and when this happens many believers are disillusioned and abandon their spiritual careers. This happens because they have passively accepted the teachings and the statements of others. On the other hand, those who have searched for answers within themselves and have tasted the elixir of discovering truth and experiencing the Presence of the Father, can’t forget these experiences and these understandings, even when others insist that such can’t happen.
“If you search for your Father within your being, you will find Him to the full satisfaction of your soul. If you let yourself be transformed by His unconditional love your life will become an expression of this divine love and, once you have experienced the peace and assurance of knowing that you are a child of God, you will not be deceived by the fallacies and the traps of the world. This peace beyond all understanding is the consequence of a dynamic faith and the decision of a human being to not be influenced by the majority — to think independently and freely — thus ensuring her own progress and well-being.
“The fact that a lot of people accept something as true does not constitute sufficient proof of its validity. Our Father doesn’t demand blind and deaf followers. He asks His children to assume their responsibilities and their rights as universal citizens, in a personal way and without coercion of any kind. The One who holds the universes in His hands would not dare to contravene the decisions of His beloved children, but the Father experiences great joy watching His little ones grow and increasingly become what He has dreamed for them to become.”
