No comfort from the comforter?
When it comes to comfort, you can't beat a 1/2 gallon of ice cream and a hot fudge brownie fresh out of the oven. Physical needs are a part of this life's adventure. We need to have food, rest, reproductive interaction and other "organismic" type activity in our lives. I'm comfortable now that I'm comforted by the "Comforter" that Jesus promises in the gospel of John.
The "Comforter" has come for the elect. (John 14:17-20). And we really have no need of Jesus to pray for us, because we have direct access to God, VIA the spirit of truth. (John 16:23) and we have no need to ask him anything because of that direct access. The veil of the temple has been torn down.
The difficulty with most Christians is believing in their mind, the "accomplished works of Jesus Christ", which is their gospel. Actually, they have a tough time believing that one to the point of "action" as well.
The nice thing about the true gospel of Christ, is that it doesn't require you to "do" much of anything.
SO they are distracted from the gospel preached by the Christ of God, and miss the comfort of the "Comforter" all together.
And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. - John 14:16-17 KJV
You can't be one with anything but yourself. And since God's temple IS you, within you, you MUST go within yourself in meditation to "KNOW thyself" and to commune with "God" in the temple of God.
And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail. - Revelation 11:19 KJV
Open the temple of God within you…and the lightning from the east to the west and the voices and the thunder and the earthquakes all make sense now that Jesus spoke of in Matt 24…
The spirit of truth is found and communed with in meditation. Silent darkness.
BE STILL and know that I AM God -
The gospel of Jesus was about the kingdom of God. And the kingdom of God is within you. And unless you meditate, you are simply not feeding the spiritual side of your own "temple"/being. And remain in the "flesh"/carnal world, without your spiritual weapons. You can't have a carnal knowledge and expect to reap spiritual results.
Meditation is the SINGLE EYE that Jesus said:
The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness. - Luke 11:34 KJV
The word for evil is "Poneras" and is usually translated from Greek to English as, full of hardships, labors, annoyances, trials, diseased, troubled…

and in the spiritual sense, it is less frequently translated as "evil", as in being constantly ravaged by the carnal world and works, and never making time to GO TO THE TEMPLE
Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? - 1 Corinthians 3:16 KJV
Most Christians shun the most basic of spiritual nourishment, because they believe meditation is from the devil
How sad is THAT
This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. - Galatians 5:16-17 KJV

Ecc 1:9, 14
The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. ... 14 I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all [is] vanity and vexation of spirit.
Don't let the events in and around your life, vex your spirit.
It happens all the time. It was happening then. It's happening now and it will happen in the future.
The prophecies of Joel, Isaiah and the "prophets" will continue to "be fulfilled" by the consciousness of man in the form of meaningless world events. History is a perpetual thing. It's always happening. Look! There is goes again.
It doesn't matter who is behind the crimes or their motives for doing terrible things. The actions of the people will be the reason for their success or failure. It's either sadness or euphoria. You choose. But who created all of this stuff?
"I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things." - Isa 45:7
Jesus said the Kingdom of God comes NOT with observation, because "the kingdom of God is within you". Luke 17:21

" Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things live [of the things] of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar? - 1Co 9:13 KJV
" And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in [them]; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people." - 2Co 6:16 KJV
" In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord"- Eph 2:21 KJV
"Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, [which is] new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and [I will write upon him] my new name. - Rev 3:12 KJV
God said He would dwell within you and via Jesus, He accomplished just that. Metaphorically speaking, of course, of the electron wave particle theory/quantum physics. Basically what God is….God is LIGHT…
Jesus said he would dwell in you with the Father
and ON THAT DAY you IN A MOMENT, in a twinkling of an eye, you realize this.
You "see" the Lord face-to-face, given a white garment and a new name; the "coming" of Jesus is accomplished and the book of Revelation fulfilled.
You are now with the Master, as one, in the temple God has created…the one He created with no hands, the temple in your forehead.
19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost [which is] in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? - 1Co 6:19 KJV
Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and [that] the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? - 1Co 3:16 KJV
Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates? - 2Co 13:5 KJV
Ecc 1:9, 14

22 And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. - Rev 21:22 KJV
Iron sharpens iron. Go in peace and preach the indwelling kingdom of God.

Notice in the above picture the component of the brain called "Cerebellum". Also notice the location of the Medulla Oblongata in the "Eye of Horus" or "Eye of Ra" in the symbol.
The "curl" on the Eye of Ra symbol is the Cerebellum. AND located deep with the Cerebellum, in the inner part of the "curl", is where you find a component called the "Arbor Vitae", which is Latin for "Tree of Life". The Cerebellum looks like a tree. Kinda cool.
Every named component of the brain has a specific function. Let's look at some of them and then let's see if we can find a corresponding reference in the Bible.
PINEAL GLAND
Jacob in the Bible discovered the pineal gland.
Genesis 32:30
"And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved"
Jacob saw God "face-to-face" in a place named "Peniel".
Stedman's medical dictionary or a copy of Grey's Anatomy is always helpful for learning. But since this is the internet
according to Wikipedia,
"The gland has been compared to the photoreceptive, so-called third parietal eye present in the epithalamus of some animal species, which is also called the pineal eye.René Descartes believed the pineal gland to be the "principal seat of the soul" and viewed it as the third eye.[6] "
For now, let's just stand in awe of Wiki's definition. Mentioning Descartes is remarkable since he viewed it as the "third eye", which is stimulated during meditation.
Matthew 6:22 "If your eye be single, your whole body shall be full of light"
v 33, 'Seek ye first the kingdom of God…"
the kingdom within you
accessed by simple meditation.
Isn't that special? No need to join a club. Send no money. You don't need me to pray for you. There's no monthly requirement. No weekly events to attend. Donate nothing. Please. We don't want your money.
Just go inside yourself. TAKE NO THOUGHT…is the encouragement of "Jesus" when seeking the kingdom. You don't need anyone's approval. You don't need to have a special prayer group lay hands on you. You have direct access to the throne of the king, right there in the temple - which is right there in your head.
Put the lower mind away. Meditate. Jesus will arrive on a white horse called the "Hippocampus" of the brain.
