Prolotheos: “The [[creation]] of ‘saviors’ is common to most [[religions]] and comes from the inability of [[human being]]s to deal with [[guilt]] about [[sin]] and the [[growth]] of a [[consciousness]] increasingly refined. In [[Christianity]], by means of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pauline_Christianity Paul’s theology] and a misconception of [[Jesus]]’ ministry by the Twelve, the idea of Jesus Christ as a Savior came out mixed with a horribly mistaken envisioning of [[the Father]] spiritually enraged against [[humanity]] because of sin and requiring [[atonement]] by His Son in order to give [[salvation]]. In fact, [[the Father]] is not an enraged perfect being against sin and who demands the perfect life of His Son instead of the lives of sinners to grant salvation. Rather, the Father is a loving Creator who lovingly and mercifully offers [[pardon]]s to His children conditioned upon just faith and the teaching of [[repentance]] and [[obedience]]. No sacrifice whatsoever is needed. Jesus is not your savior because he died for your sins, neither to satisfy the perfect [[God's justice|justice of God]]. However, there is a way to see Christ [[Michael]], the same that incarnated on Urantia as Jesus of Nazareth, as a Savior — in fact the greatest of all. | Prolotheos: “The [[creation]] of ‘saviors’ is common to most [[religions]] and comes from the inability of [[human being]]s to deal with [[guilt]] about [[sin]] and the [[growth]] of a [[consciousness]] increasingly refined.
