A journey along a spiritual path....
2009
The life coach said: “Set your troubled heart at rest. Trust in my methods and spiritual science. There are many Universal Laws that you can use to create the life you want. If that were not so, I would not have told you so, for I am going to be your guide. And if I go and replenish the secrets of success that worked in my life, I shall come back to you and take you under my wing, so that you may also connect through Universal Consciousness and know the internal processes to apply.
The client said, “Master, I do not understand Universal Consciousness and why the Universal Laws work.”
The life coach replied, “I am the way, the truth and the life; no one achieves true Prosperity except by me. Peace, light and love is my parting gift to you, such as you will find nowhere else. Set your troubled heart at rest, and banish your fears.”
Written AD 70 ish, attributed to one called John
“Set your troubled hearts at rest. Trust in God always; trust also in me. There are many dwelling-place in my Father’s house; if it were not so I should not have told you; for I am going to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I shall come again and take you to myself, so that where I am you may be also; and you know the way I am taking.”
Thomas said, “Lord, we do not know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”
Jesus replied, “I am the way, the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father except by me.
“Peace is my parting gift to you, my own peace, such as the world cannot give. Set your troubled hearts at rest, and banish your fears.”
(The Holy Bible, New Testament, John 14:verses1-6 & verse 27)
Exercise in the "Art of Allowing"
(Adapted from the words of the His Grace, the Archbishop of Canterbury, at Lambeth Palace, on 9th April, 2009, at a private funeral service of a friend).
Allow the Grace of God to be with ourselves, so that we can be at home with ourselves and so welcome others. Be at home with our values and vision and at home with God, and relationships will be built up. If we trust in God always, we can believe in being welcome wherever we are, whatever steps we take.
“Be with me,” said Jesus, “be in my company along your way.”

Questions:
Is there sufficient and adequate evidence for the message from the AD 70 "coach" to supplement or replace the first version offered by many modern day coaches?
What is the nature of authority?
What is the relationship between faith and scientific reality?
Is a win - win combination available in the 21st century? Should one aspire to one?
