I have a genuinie question. Do you see any Hindu trying to do a Baptist Service on Spiritual Baptist Liberation day or Doing African Rituals on Emancipation Day? Maybe you can explain what is your inspiration behind this or your intention? What is the desired outcome? The title of this is also a bit misleading, Can you please explain what a "puja service" is as I've never heard this term. Bishop Andre Francis please bring me some clarity.
bless if you have never heard the term ... you have never just heard it .. I have been to many in the diaspora ... I am quite amazed that a service of such has a few in a bunch ... please RUclips is filled with millions videos ... watch another one if this one is not your cup of tea ... what denomination do or not do is not my business ... Note this my last response this .. have a bless one
When you are ready come and let's chat. Knowledge is there for the gaining. Now I would say to you that many Hindus will never talk against Jesus. In fact there are spiritual lineages from India, several hundred years older than Spiritual Baptist Faith, who have long held Yeshua as an ascended master of their traditional lineage. That is fact, not fantasy. Many millions of Westerners practice under those lineages and unlike our pop up shop "faith" or "religion" persons don't become a bonafide Guru in the Vedic system overnight. There lineages of discipleship go back thousands of years.
@@michaelforde1818How did Africans get to the western world? Also this is not a case of any Hindu talking bad about Jesus, I don't know where you saw that. When you talk about lineage, African spirituality does not trace back to Puja or Hinduism. If you want to talk lineage. Not even Jesus or "Yeshua" as you say but Yeshua is really Joshua. Not even Jesus' lineage traces back to Hinduism. Infact any follower of Jesus is prohibited from worshipping, sacrificing, paying homeage to any other god of any other nation. Your bible gives strict penalties for this. Can a man serve two masters? Just stop confusing yourselves and confusing the people who follow you all, you all will be held accountable. I am available for a live debate if you wish to pursue this futher.
Plzzzzz....no part of the holy bible says My JESUS went to india...and even worse they taught him...what could anyone of us uncircumcised philistines teach Jesus the one that sees and know all things..HE came to teach not to be taught
Divine nature within us should reveal that there is no Hindu or Baptist or any other designation that can get us into true knowledge of God. Only the genuine seeker can know what is G_D. No amount of scriptural quotations without real, provable experience of G_D will suffice for those who truly seek. That said, the service parts displayed here do not contain the Vedic (Abrahamic) rituals which were performed during this service. These are not for show to the masses, who by virtue of a lack of knowledge or direct provable spiritual experience, will not seek to understand and grow into the fullness of our practice. Every year we perform Puja and Homam which is a service of devotional offerings and sacrifice by fire, respectively. The puja is done as 8 steps of offerings of things symbolic to us in the same way that Spiritual Baptists place a thanksgiving table and put symbolic offerings on it. The basic puja offerings are sandalwood, incense, flowers, lights, food, amritam, rice grains. For a more detailed puja there are other offerings such as clothing, jewelry, water for drinking, water for bathing, paan and betel nut etc. These are all symbolic of doing service to G_D as if G_D where physically there at that present moment. Spiritual Baptists of olden times used to keep what was called a "sit down prayers" and, laughingly, "'for the Indian Man". Of course, most could not properly identify who this "indian man" was but proceeded to do a whole prayer service with the "indian road" be the predominant spiritual vibration of said prayers. As everyone already knows within the Spiritual Baptist from of worship there are so called "roads" and "countries". It fails me to understand why to be African means only one thing, when it is historical fact that all ideas and concepts about G_D can be traced back to the cradle of civilisation. Note I have written ideas and concepts, because that is all we have...ideas and concepts about G_D. We are always caught up in semantics when true provable experience is there for our good. Our Temple operates by the Grace of the Divine Supreme Being. This means that we do what we have received from the spirit and do not follow silly conventions of human beings who lack direct provable experience. As always, we invite everyone to come and experience truth. We often have deep teaching sessions before church service on Sundays exploring the words of the Bible in such detail as you will not receive in your own congregation. We have other ad-hoc teaching sessions to discuss the God manifestation in different schools of taught and practice including the Vedic format and Hebrew format. Come learn, grow and get direct provable experience. Divine Temple of Light is located at LP 55 Waterwheel Drive, Diego Martin.
Opinions you can have .. it is in thy power .. but your opinion will not dictate my pace or my relationship with God. It's not your cup of tea dont drink it ... peace be with you . Respectfully ApB Andre Francis
you using the word to characterize my mind so yes you are being disrespectful as you dont know me .. handling the word decierfully .. that written also .. bless
opinions... a view or judgement formed about something or someone , not necessarily based on fact or knowledge. You dont know me nor where you there not was it given to you to do poor me & shame? that's an opinion I dont share ... but again it's an entitlement you have. Shalom
Please note the Vedic rituals were not taped as per the normal rules of our Temple. In fact even in India it is still taboo to video record Vedic rituals in progress, though some people have started doing that. I have direct first hand experience of this in India and not talking from fantasy as most do.

There will always be condemnation.

1Ti2:1-6 is quite instructive. I would suggest a thorough study of that passage and its associated/related scripture.

Please do yourself a favor and do some research before you talk.
Lady before you condemn, please edify yourself if you lack knowledge no shame in asking questions to be made wise
