You're welcome :-) Not a follower myself, but you gotta like a guy who says (and everybody seems to get this one wrong), "If you're not against me, you're with me."
I know you're not, and that's totally fine with me. I never thought I'd have this kind of relationship with Christ - something that's taken me by suprise. I don't consider myself a follower though - it's more of a relationship. Like working with Vajrakilaya or Vajrasattva - one builds a relationship with them that is entirely personal and experiential rather than theoretical.
This is not a choice. Someone coming up behind you and tapping you on the shoulder is not a choice. I turn around and see my Friend who has come to say hello. That's not really a choice. It's a HAPPENING. I'm glad these conversations are taking place because it's further defining experiential vs. doctrine.
People choose a religion based on comfort. Gnosis happens through practice, longing, and grace.
I do not call myself Christian, but I feel the same way. I started studying magick at the same time I was given to God personally and publicly.
I don't push the subject, and I don't REALLY like to dispute it. but I have only met with internal discontent when I begin to try and depart from it, based on the politics of others.
Even today, despite my Gnostic and Magick work making people think I am a "ian", "ite", or "ist" and myself interchangeably using those terms of convenience in regards my Admission into Mysteries with those who far understand who I am, you will not a hatred or mocking in MY words life or deed for the essential Apocalypsis of my own experience of Rapture that was well earned in the study and attendence to the teachings of Jehesua, Iesu, or Jesus if you will.
You have earned a place among my chosen and preferred on LJ, and I am still unsure who you are.

Have you heard the quote: "One consciousness experiencing itself subjectively"
