I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, [which] shall never hold their peace day or night: ye that make mention of the LORD, keep not silence
1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 KJV
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

Many stars that are seen already dead millions years ago
There is divine boundless awareness consciousness in the universe.
Which cannot be seen, not found in any forms or shapes don't need any Throne don't need to be seen
Don't need any witness to confirm His existence
Don't demand to be worshipped and glorified
Never threaten men with death for failing to revognize.
Does not claim as the most holy crap which told people to kill
The ultimate destination that does not need or appreciate praise
Re: Psalm 147:4 He determined the number of the stars : CANNOT BE PROVEN (Edited by Author)
Speaking of stars, another question I have is how could a star in the night sky ever stop and wait for wise men to guide them to a location?
... It doesn't quite compute.
Neither does the virgin birth narrative. Stuff like that just does not happen due to the limits of science and human biology. And in order for it to be true, the Creator would have to go against himself by violating the natural order of things that was set into motion in the first place.
Yet illogical fear-driven religious beliefs justify this with emotions, dreams, and things that go bump in the middle of the night to somehow make the narrative fit their worldview.

Thanks Ano,
The buddhists in Tibet has a story of great teacher who came to Tibet in 8th Century.
The teacher was born out of a big lotus flower.
He subdued most demons (prince in the air) in Tibet and converted them into dharma protectors
When he died he shrinked his body and transformed it into rainbow light to the sky.
So he shrinked to the size of a baby and smaller, then he disappeared with the rainbow
The same with Buddha who refuse to live in flesh and blood containing faeces and urine.
They return to cosmic boundless consciousness

That's very interesting that so many ascended masters / teachers of humanity share similarities. Is there any factual evidence to validate those claims? ... Or is most of it lore and legend passed down through the generations?
Now some of those things such as "being born out of a lotus flower" may exist metaphorically to amplify a greater teaching .... and also work as a catchy hook to convert people into the Buddhist faith.
However, the great ones (Buddah, Djwhal Khul, Madam Blavatsky, Umling, Owuor, Rhonda Empson, Ruben, etc.) do not literally hatch out of rocks, flowers, or fall from the stars to bring goodwill to earth. It's interesting metaphor to get followers, but no cigar in actuality.
God would have to provide cheat codes for physics and biology in order to do that.

The Dharma taught about 10 chains that bind all creature in endless misery of reincarnation.
That is called Dasa Samyojana/ Ten Chains
1. Believe in ritual to purify heart (blood, food, beard, foreskin, Feasts etc)
2. Believe your body is yours
3. Doubts of Dharma and believe threatening religions
4. Loathe
5. Sexual enslavement
Arrogancy, Greedy, Ignorance of Sins, Vengeance worries
Claim to own heaven and holiness by religion
If you watch the above chains carefully
You can understand your exact position
How much men effort to cleanse their hearts.
Or are you honestly admin you are still chained.
A man who Freed from above chains is called Arhat and free from rebirth
He shall be united with boundless consciousness of universe.
Not being birthed in heaven.
Not only proclaiming prophecies and think it a supreme achievement.
Do people ever learn to remove the above by enlightment their heart instead of seeking answers from heaven
