Very good point. Thank you. I was saying that the story needs to be told without all the beliefs that the churches have wrapped around it, but the story won’t mean anything to anyone if they don’t see the fruits. That requires constant efforts in self-Improvement, with Jesus as our guide and teacher. Not any Jesus of any churches. Not any historical Jesus. Not any Jesus that people invent for themselves. Those are all more clouds hiding the light from people, and repelling them away from it. The Jesus that I think we need is the Jesus that people can see in the gospel stories, and in the lives of people who are following Him, including their warm feelings and friendly intentions towards all people and all of nature.So look at the fruit of the spirit and you will see what we want ie love, peace, joy.
