Title: If you love the BEATLES, specifically John Lennon. READ THIS!
Post by: carloroman on July 30, 2007, 10:47:25 PM
 If you love/once loved the Beatles, specifically John Lennon, this article must concern you. :-D

     Last night, as I was surfing the net, I stumbled upon an article saying that Jesus appeared to seven (7) Columbian youths. According to the article, Jesus brought these seven youths to HELL for them to spread the news to the world that hell is real and that it is terrible and gloomy down there indeed.

     Ito na 'yong nakaka-loko na parte. Ayon sa unang nagtestify (isa sa 7 na Columbian na bata), may iba't ibang level daw sa hell, at si JOHN LENNON daw ay nasa 2nd level!

     Ako, hindi ako naniniwala kasi ayaw ko maniwala na ang idol ko na si John ay nandoon, sana talaga hindi.  :cry:
Pero kayo, ano tingin ninyo?

Hell exists, but no one is there yet.  That is what judgment day is for.

Alam ko history ng Beatles and all.. beatlemaniac ako, eh.. ahah! Pero, ngayon ko lang nalaman na may mga taong nagsasabing nasa impyerno nga si John! Alam ko ung "we are bigger than Jesus" blabla.. pero, di ko alam na may taong nagsasabing nasa hell si John. Nagulat nga ako e.. akala ko religious stuff lang binabasa ko nung gabing yon, nanlaki talaga mata ko nung nakita kong si John Lennon pala ung nakasabit na nakabaliktad e.. grabe..

Well, first of all, the article isn't really a "trivia" because trivias are supposed to be facts.. I personally don't think the article is a fact. I think the whole story was made up by a Beatle/John Lennon hater..

Nakakagulat lang, kasi ginamit talaga si Jesus e.. I mean, big thing talaga siya kasi "apparition" ni Jesus daw e. Gusto raw ispread ni Jesus sa earth na may hell nga at ginamit niya ung pitong Columbians na yon.. Sana lang hindi na lang binaggit si John Lennon. ahehehe!

Siguro mabibigyan ng pangalawang pagkakataon yung mga nasa impyerno (Yung mga gustong magbago)
Tapos yung mga nasa langit na naging masama sa taas, mapapatapon sa impyerno.
Yung mga natira sa lupa, first judgement nila yun. ("Siguro" Theory lang po)  :-)

    there is no worse punishment then death , existence in hell for john lennon will be a bliss, he'll be very grateful because his conciousness and his mind are still intact and besides, pain and misery are good themes for his newfound new-dimensional poetic exploits...hehe.

"I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use." -Galileo Galilei

Kahit atheist ka pa, di ka siguro mapupuntang hell basta may malinis na konsyensya ka.

Kung si John nga, naniwala kay God e.. di dapat mas safe pa siya. Oo, nasabi lang niya na once upon a time na "more popular" ang Beatles kay Jesus. At pwede namang totoo iyon nung panahon na sinabi niya yun: mid-60's. Pero hindi naman siya nagka-sala no'n, eh. Pwede namang totoo iyon, so hindi siya nagsinungaling man lang. At hindi naman porket sinabi niyang mas sikat sila ke Jesus e sinabi na rin niya na mas powerful siya sa Kaniya. Popularity DOES NOT equate with might.

And yes, John believes in God and Christianity. If you analyze the lyrics of his trademark song, "Imagine", you'd know. In the very first line of the song saying, "Imagine there's no heaven..", you see that he believes in heaven;hence telling us merely to IMAGINE that THERE IS NO HEAVEN.

Chaka ang sama nung unang testimony talaga.. sinabi doon na satanic music group daw ang Beatles. haha!

This is my personal opinion to this. ahihi! :-D Of course, I may be wrong..

those "john lennon at 2nd level of hell facts" could have serve a purpose for some people who need this data just to get through this life
linear pa rin pala pagdating dun may levelling pa rin bat di na lang holistic level as in isa na lang.....na Hell.
i have not always believe in those mythical places.....
but i do believe na may common good and if it makes the world a bit better place then that is God or heaven.

i believe God would not set a criteria just like we humans do.
we have a need for this criteria though too make sense of this life
to the fact that we become zealous and too purist
that the original intention of making sense of this life was corrupted

yung anak ko bunso pag tinawag akong dada thats heaven......
yung asawa ko pag hinihilot ang pagod kong mga mata dahil sa trabaho thats heaven
yung anak kong nagaaral kahit hirap siyang tumayo dahil sa SMA ....thats heaven....encouraging

i dont love john lennon though ....
i love the beatles music ...thats more like it.
drama.

Holy sh*t.. the killer of Lennon read "The Catcher in the Rye" before shooting lennon. We were required to read the same book during 4th year high school.. astig!

hehe!

astig tong trailer na ito a!! may movie tungkol sa pagpatay kay Lennon? Interesting!!

SAbi sa akin ng ibang beatle-addict friends ko, pinatay raw si Lennon ng CIA tlga.. tapos cover-up lang daw lahat ng ito? Ang gulo! I think it has something to do with the feud between lennon and the USA.

last month ko nga lang nabasa ang catcher in the rye. hehe. klasik! feeling ko, ako din si holden. haha.

showing na ata sa UK to eh. at kung di ako nagkakamali, indie film to.

conspiracy theories lang naman ang pagkakasangkot ng CIA sa pagpatay kay Lennon. may book din palang FBI: The John Lennon Files. (di ako syur sa pamagat, pero parang ganito hehe). di ko pa nabasa nang buo, pero interesting din. ang kaso kasi dati, ipinaglalaban ni Lennon na makatira siya sa US. ayaw ng gobyerno ni...Nixon? ewan. basta ganun. pero sa huli, granted ang kaso ni Lennon.

ayun lang.

Faith, through it. But, what you have said is similar to the thought that disturbs my mind. I always ask myself this "What if everything is just pure science?". Pero nilalabanan ko yan syempre. God is the one that made science. Yun ang pangontra ko sa sarili kong kabaliwan. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Astig to.

Paul McCartney was involved in a car accident. Apparently "he hadn't noticed that the lights had changed." The accident occurred at 5 a.m. on a Wednesday morning. Cause of death was massive head trauma. So severe were his wounds that dental records were useless for identifying the body.

No accident report was made public due to pending investigation of the occupant. Beatles' insiders learned it was Paul, but kept silent. Understanding the ramifications of such news, the remaining Beatles hatched a cover-up.

A Paul McCartney look alike contest was held. William Campbell won first place, but the results were never announced. Campbell's prize was to be made a clone of Paul for photos, videos, movies, etc. Plastic surgery was used to smooth out the minor differences. They failed to fix a scar on Campbell's upper lip - this is how you can tell authentic McCartney photos from the Campbell ones.

thanks for your question bro. Andon na rin sa previous post ko ang sagot. Panginoon lang ang nakakaalam sino sino ang maliligtas. Salvation to other race and even mine and yours, Panginoon lang nakakaalam.

 Surely without His grace and mercy, everyone and that includes you and me, are doomed for destruction. We should not worry too much about other peoples lives, instead  lets have a true relationship with our Creator. :-)

thanks bro, but its not selfishness.. :-) salvation is God's department , that's the context. It is never earned nor purchased, not even our good deeds will earn it, but through grace by accepting Him as our personal savior. What I mean is there's no use worrying about them because we cannot do anything about it.

speaking of Lennon and the Beatles, namatay na pala si Maharishi Yogi. sino siya?

BBC NEWS

Indian guru Maharishi Yogi dies

The Maharishi built up a following of about six million people.

Meeting the Beatles
The Indian guru, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, who is credited with introducing the Beatles and other stars to ancient Hindu meditation methods, has died.

The Maharishi, thought to have been 91 years old, died in his sleep on Tuesday evening at his home in the Netherlands.

He introduced the Transcendental Meditation movement to the West in 1959, with the intention of creating individual peace and enlightenment.

By the time of his death, it had grown into a multi-million dollar empire.

The Maharishi announced his retirement and retreat into silence at his home in Vlodrop last month, saying his work was done and that he wanted to dedicate his remaining days to studying ancient Hindu Vedas texts.

Don't fight darkness - bring the light, and darkness will disappear.
-Maharishi Mahesh Yogi

"He had been saying he had done what he set out to do," his spokesman, Bob Roth, told the Associated Press.

Mr Roth said the Maharishi died peacefully in his sleep at around 1900 (1800 GMT), due to "natural causes - his age".

Mantras

Born in the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh, the Maharishi trained as a physicist before devoting himself to spiritual enlightenment.

After studying in the Himalayas under Guru Dev during the 1940s and 1950s, he spread the teachings of transcendental meditation throughout the world.

Based on the theory and practice of yoga, transcendental meditation involves a mental technique that can reportedly be easily learnt and practised by anyone to reach a "state of pure consciousness" and gain deep rest.

By repeating in the mind a Sanskrit mantra, a short word or phrase, a practitioner is supposedly able to find deep relaxation, which in turn leads to enhanced inner joy, vitality, and creativity.

"Don't fight darkness. Bring the light, and darkness will disappear," the Maharishi said in an interview in 2006, repeating one of his own mantras.

The Maharishi introduced the technique to the US in 1959, but it did not become widely known in the West until 1968, when the Beatles travelled to India to meditate with him, although the band famously later fell out with him.

Despite this, transcendental meditation's 20-minute routine came to be widely used in the worlds of education, business and welfare to reduce stress and improve concentration, eventually building a following of five million people.

Donations and the $2,500 (£1,270) fee to learn the technique helped finance the construction of Peace Palaces, or meditation centres, in dozens of cities around the world, as well as several universities.

After decades of teaching, the Maharishi unveiled plans to use the power of group meditation to create world peace and end poverty.

In 1990, he moved into 200-room mansion in the southern Dutch village of Vlodrop. Concerned about his fragile health, he secluded himself in two rooms, speaking only by video link even to his closest advisers in the same building.

here'e a quote from the article na hindi ko nagustuhan...

"The Lord allowed us to see a man who was inside of one of the cauldrons.  He was upside down and the flesh on his face was falling in pieces.  He remained watching the Lord intently; and then started to shout and call on the name of Jesus.  He said, "Lord have mercy!  Lord give me a chance!  Lord take me out of this place!"  But the Lord Jesus didn't want to look at him.  Jesus simply turned his back on him.  When Jesus did this, the man started to curse and blaspheme the Lord.  This man was John Lennon, the member of the satanic music group "The Beatles."   John Lennon was a man who mocked and made fun of the Lord during his life.  He said that the Christianity was going to disappear and Jesus Christ would be forgotten by everyone.  However, today this man is in hell and Jesus Christ is alive!!  Christianity hasn't disappeared either."

Sobrang biased naman against rock music to. And the beatles were satanic???!!! Paano na si John Bonham? Kasi di ba backmasked daw ang stairway to heaven. The Beatles weren't satanic. They were just into eastern mysticism kaya it seemed that they were "unchristian". And that "we are more popular than Jesus" quote of Lennon's was soooo massively taken out of context.

Tama ang isang forumite na nagsabi na merong hell, wala lang tao dun ngayon.kasi we all have to wait for judgment day. don't believe this article. It's just the cocaine talking (Kung colombia talaga to at hindi columbia,hehehehe)

Peace.

yes, the Earth where we now live in is hell when Jesus comes on the judgement day, also, the day for true repentance   is now and Jesus will surely listen to every ardent prayer. He is only a prayer away :-)

looks like another desperate attempt to win over non believers. John had a lot of haters in the late 60s for saying "Were more popular than Jesus" and eventually led to christian anti-beatle campaigns.

Read on (taken from http://www.newsoftheodd.com/content/view/212/)

Today in Odd History, The Evening Standard published a long, rambling interview with John Lennon in which he proclaimed that the Beatles were "more popular than Jesus." Although there was little reaction to his statement in England, Christians elsewhere embarked upon a massive campaign to destroy Beatles albums and other paraphernalia. Lennon apologized for the remark later, and the Archbishop of Boston admitted that he was probably right, but many still refused to forgive him.
In its original context, the remark was part of a perfectly harmless lifestyle piece by Evening Standard reporter Maureen Cleave. She had spent the day Lennon, whom she described as "imperious, ... unpredictable, indolent, disorganised, childish, vague, charming and quick-witted." He took her on a tour of his mansion, talking about books and fame, and the gorilla suit he bought so he could drive around wearing it. When they reached the subject of religion, Lennon said, "Christianity will go. It will vanish and shrink. ... We're more popular than Jesus now; I don't know which will go first-rock 'n' roll or Christianity. Jesus was all right but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It's them twisting it that ruins it for me."

The British public took the comment as what is was: An opinion voiced by an artist known as much for his hummingbird mind as for his considerable talent. In July, however, an American teen magazine called Datebook quoted the infamous Jesus statement without reprinting the original article. It appeared as part of a cover story called "The Ten Adults You Dig/Hate the Most."

The American reaction was instantaneous. Radio stations across the country, but especially in the South and Midwest, stopped playing Beatles records. Death threats began pouring in — directed against not only John, but the other Beatles as well. Bonfires appeared, with Beatles pictures and albums providing the fuel. Maureen Cleave tried to explain that "John was certainly not comparing the Beatles with Christ. He was simply observing that so weak was the state of Christianity that the Beatles were, to many people, better known. He was deploring, rather than approving, this," but to no avail.

In Cleveland, the Reverend Thurman H. Babbs threatened to excommunicate any member of his congregation who listened to the Beatles. In the South, the Ku Klux Klan burned the Beatles in effigy and nailed Beatles albums to burning crosses. Finally, on August 11, with a scheduled American tour fast approaching, Lennon held a press conference in Chicago, at which he attempted to make amends.

"I'm not saying that we're better or greater," he said, "or comparing us with Jesus Christ as a person or God as a thing or whatever it is... I wasn't saying whatever they're saying I was saying. I'm sorry I said it really. I never meant it to be a lousy anti-religious thing. I apologize if that will make you happy. I still don't know quite what I've done. I've tried to tell you what I did do but if you want me to apologize, if that will make you happy, then OK, I'm sorry."

For most people, this was enough, but not for all. The KKK tried, unsuccessfully, to stop the Beatles' show in Memphis. On August 13, KLUE, a radio station in Texas, organized another Beatles bonfire. (That same night, the station was struck by lightning, which damaged their equipment and knocked the station manager unconscious. Sometimes, justice really is poetic.)

The international reaction was just beginning. Beatles albums were banned from the airwaves in Spain and Holland. The Vatican, while recognizing that the remarks were made "off-handedly and not impiously," also said that "[T]he protest the remark raised showed that some subjects must not be dealt with lightly and in a profane way, not even in the world of beatniks."

In South Africa, Piet Myer of the South African Broadcasting Corporation justified his decision to bar Beatles albums by saying, "The Beatles' arrogance has passed the ultimate limit of decency. It is clowning no longer." Even years later, after the group had broken up, John Lennon's albums were still banned from South African radio, although Paul McCartney's and George Harrison's music could be broadcast.

John Lennon returned to the subject in December, when he told LOOK magazine that "I believe Jesus was right, Buddha was right, and all of those people like that are right. They're all saying the same thing — and I believe it. I believe what Jesus actually said — the basic things he laid down about love and goodness — and not what people say he said... If Jesus being more popular means... more control, I don't want that. I'd sooner they'd all follow us even if it's just to dance and sing for the rest of their lives. If they took more interest in what Jesus — or any of them — said, if they did that, we'd all be there with them."

Although the Beatles would remain together for four more years, the American tour that followed the Jesus incident would be their last.
