Divine Strategery

How God Fools Mankind

And Keeps Him Ignorant Of The Truth

 

What Is Divine Strategery?

How God Fools Mankind - Keeping Him Ignorant Of The Truth: Strategery has become synonymous with when what is portrayed as simple, simpleminded, or even self-evident, is able to dupe and thwart an opposing force that perceives itself to be either superior, or to suppose they know the answers.   Divine Strategery is how God fools all the religious leaders of this world who think they doctrinally know God -- all the would-be teachers and philosophers of this world who think they Know Truth -- all the Atheists and those who criticize and denounce the existence of God by virtue of their limited perception and understanding -- and all the people in this world who think they understand the purpose of life and the world in which we presently dwell.  As prodigal sons and daughters of our Heavenly Father, if the people in this life knew the answers, then the learning experience of God's School House of this world would not effectively evolve us to become mature prodigal sons and daughters who are able to return to the Edenic Kingdom -- and with our return, true Brothers and Sisters of our Elder Brother Yeshua/Jesus.  Therefore, in order to insure that each of us is immersed in the necessary learning experience that this life offers, all people are equally fooled into thinking they know, in order for them to be manipulated into embracing a higher agenda that is beyond their ability to even imagine.   Thus, Divine Strategery!!!

 

Strategery

The word "Strategery" was first used in a Saturday Night Live sketch aired October 7, 2000, satirizing the performances of Al Gore and George W. Bush, two candidates for President of the United States, during the first presidential debate for election year 2000. [1] Comedian Will Ferrell played Bush and used the word "strategery" (a play on the words "strategy" and "strategic") to satirize Bush's reputation for mispronouncing words. The episode was later released as part of a video tape titled Presidential Bash 2000.   After winning the 2000 Presidential Election, people inside the Bush White House reportedly began using the term as a joke, and it later grew to become a term of art among them meaning oversight of any activity by Bush's political strategists.  Bush's strategists also came to be known within the White House as "The Department of Strategery" or the "Strategery Group" (Quoted from Wikipedia). 

The Truth Is Not Of This World

Until you come to the wide-eyed stark realization that those who say they can doctrinally know God, don't -- and those who say there is no God, are only fooling themselves -- and those who believe they can teach you, can't -- and those who think that they can find the answers to life in the wisdom of this world, are self-deluded -- then you can never even begin to learn about either yourself, the truth, or your Creator-God.    While Christians are in denial, and attempt to ignore the many biblical warnings, it is openly stated that the untransformed organic mind of man, is incapable of comprehending the higher reality of the soul and the Mysteries of the Kingdom (see Organic Consciousness) -- with the long ignored warning that Christians themselves will condemn the higher realities of the spirit at utter "foolishness"!   And this warning has been prove true -- as demonstrated in the fact that the Churches reject and condemn even the lesser concepts of the Mysteries of the Kingdom that Jesus could only reveal to his most faithful of disciples.

Flawed Human Reasoning


Believers and disbelievers alike are all under the grave misconception that God wants man to philosophically know the truth.  Atheists and believers are on opposite sides of the same boat -- one is of the opinion that God wants them to believe the truth -- the other is of the opinion that if there were a God, that He would reveal the truth to mankind.   Neither can come to terms with the reality that the flaw is in man's organic thinking -- and that while part of one's own unknown self already knows all truths, the part of us that dwells in this world is inhibited from knowing the truth.   Why?   Because there is a higher objective that must first be accomplished, prior to our being permitted to even open the door to the Truth that reveals the reason for all things.   And since at our inner spiritual essence and kernel, the Truth is already known, then the objective is to become an Expression of the Truth and the Light.   And this can only be accomplished, by first overcoming our own divided natures that we are for the most part oblivious to the far reaching reality of.    And while it is man's Destiny to know the Truth, it is his own limitations and flawed thinking and mindset that alienates him from fulfilling that Destiny.

 

The formula for finding Truth is seen in the reality that no man or woman can ever possess any greater level of Truth, than they are willing to live and manifest in their lives in word, thought, desire and deed.  We are the Prodigal Sons and Daughters of the Most High -- and any time that we truly desire to return to the Edenic Kingdom, all that is required is that we seek Truth over manmade doctrine, turn about from the ways of this world, and we will find the Kingdom Come Within Us.  This is the Truth, the Light, and TheWay for all of mankind.   How do we begin the journey?   The secret to escaping the "outer darkness" of this world, is to understand that it wasn't until the prodigal son desired to become a servant, that the journey home could begin.   Therefore, it is not until you come to understand what it means to be a servant, that you can even begin to understand the higher reality of the soul and the Mysteries of the Kingdom.

The Solution

 

While carnal man who is imbued with the hunger for instant gratification may not like the reality of his plight to know the Truth, it is presented to him in one of the parables of the Kingdom in the words: "The kingdom of heaven is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal till it was all leavened" (Matt 13:33 NKJ).   While every element of the parables -- i.e., woman, hid, three measures, meal, leavened -- all has a deeper meaning in their own individual right, on a very simple level, the leaven has been infused within each and every one of us as part of our Spiritual DNA.   It makes no difference whether we are presently a believer, a non-believer, a saint or a sinner -- without exception, the above parable is intimately applicable to each and every one of us.    Moreover, without exception, there is a reason why each of us is standing at our present station in life -- and in order for each of us to succeed in our primary objectives, which is the expansion of the leaven in the parable -- it is imperative that we do not know the Truth beforehand, while we are confronting the tests of life that creates within each of us the proper conditions for the leaven to expand and ultimately enlighten us.
 

Why Would God Want To Fool Mankind?

Regardless of the uncountable number of times that Holy Men, Mystics and Prophets attempt to convey to man that his own higher reality is beyond his ability to even imagine, carnal man refuses to believe this Universal Wisdom of those who have themselves entered the Kingdom of God, and witnessed what "eyes cannot see", and "ears cannot hear", and what is impossible for the natural mind of man, functioning under the limitations of organic consciousness, to perceive, comprehend and understand (see The Incomprehensible).   The man known as the Apostle Paul warned that men of a "natural" mind would look upon the Mysteries of God that he was not permitted to reveal to the Christian Congregation, as "foolishness" (see The Letter That Killeth).   And explained that only those who have evolved to a state of spiritual maturity and completion, are capable of perceiving and comprehending man's own higher True Reality.   But even these words which were very clearly spoken, the Laws of God hardens the hearts of Christian believers so they neither acknowledge their implications, or comprehend with an understanding mind. 

 

God does not want the Atheist to believe -- certain areas of mind can only be developed as a non-believer.   God does not want the traditional teachers of religion to know the Truth -- God wants them to Become the Truth.   God does not want the scholars and philosophers of this world to comprehend the true realities of life -- if they did, then they could never be subjected to the tests of life that will make them Whole and Complete.   Why can't the truth and the higher reality of the soul simply be openly stated?   So that all people can know the Truth?   Even if carnal men could conceive of the Truth and their own Higher Reality -- which they can't -- if they were able to understand the Truth, then this knowledge would negate the most important reasons for life itself.   What are those reasons?   The leaven in the parable of the Kingdom (see Leaven), can only work under the proper conditions -- and if the prodigal sons and daughters knew the Truth, or were able to dispel what the scriptures called the "outer darkness" and remember how their more distant past and how they came to be at their present station in life -- then the Leaven in the parable could no longer bring about the necessary transformation that enables the prodigals to return to the Kingdom.    If government knew the Truth, it would be classified Top Secret -- i.e., it can only be imparted to those who not only have prepared themselves to receive it, but have themselves evolved to a state of maturity and completion.   And it was for this reason why the first century Elder Ignatius wrote in warning to the Christians of the simple-faith: “Might I not write to you things more full of mystery?  But I fear to do so, lest I should inflict injury on you who are babes.  Pardon me in this respect, lest, as not being able to receive their weighty import, ye should be strangled by them” -- and why Paul stated that it was unlawful to convey to others what he witnessed while in the Kingdom: "...Fourteen years ago I was taken up to heaven for a visit. Don't ask me whether my body was there or just my spirit, for I don't know; only God can answer that. But anyway, there I was in paradise, and heard things so astounding that they are beyond a man's power to describe or put in words (and anyway I am not allowed to tell them to others)” (2 Cor 12:1-4 TLB).    And why Peter is quoted by his disciple Clement as commanding: “We remember that our Lord and teacher, as commanding, said to us, guard the mysteries for me, and the sons of my house.  Wherefore also he explained to his disciples, privately, the mysteries of the kingdoms of the heavens.” (Clementine Homilies) -- and why Jesus concealed the Mysteries of the Kingdom in parables that could only be understood by those who were of a spiritual understanding, as seen in the words: “Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables: That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand” (Mark 4:11-12 KJV).

Those who say no one really knows the Truth - are themselves not supposed to know.

Those who will teach you the truth - are themselves counterfeit teachers.

This is a realm of growth and testing - only the few who pass the test can know the Truth

A true teacher will guide you in TheWay to find the Truth and the Kingdom within Your Self

The few who know the Truth, will always be rejected and condemned by the religious and political leaders.

To know the Truth, you must convert yourself -- and you must become a Living Temple where Truth Manifests

There are no shortcuts -- no group/church pass

Jesus stated to those who would become his disciple:

"Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it."

(Matt 7:13-14 NKJ)

While The Bible Openly Warns Man Of The Truth

Man's Arrogance Causes Him To Ignore The Many Warnings

 

Quoting An Extract From

The Key Of Knowledge

( http://KeyOfKnowledge.org )

Paul called the written words of the scriptures the "letter that killeth" (2 Cor 3:6).   He warned the baptized believers at Corinth that until they undergo the necessary process of spiritual transformation, that their natural organic mind will be incapable of understanding the true meaning of the Gospel, and they will look upon the Mysteries of God as "foolishness" -- i.e., “But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned” (1 Cor 2:14 NKJ).   And he warned these baptized and confirmed Christians who had received all the gifts and testimony of the Gospel, that their untransformed mind was yet too carnal to comprehend and begin to grasp the necessary higher realities of soul and spirit -- i.e., “And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual men, but as to men of flesh, as to babes in Christ (1 Cor 3:1 NAS).   Further explaining that what is known as the testimony of Jesus Christ and him crucified is the "milk" of the Gospel -- meant for entry-level believers who have only begun their journey in TheWay -- i.e., “I gave you milk to drink, not solid food; for you were not yet able to receive it. Indeed, even now you are not yet able” (1 Cor 3:2 NAS).

To this very day, what the believers of a natural organic mindset have trouble in comprehending -- a reality that continues to plague all people who attempt to read the scriptures -- is the reality that the religion preached by Paul was one of Spiritual Transformation.   Paul warned those he preached to about the "letter that killeth", that their religious ideas and doctrines were merely elementary.   Paul attempted to convey this higher reality to believers who were unable to comprehend the Mysteries of God, because he was a man who was not only enlightened about the Kingdom within (see Gate Of Eden), but had himself been permitted entrance into the Kingdom -- as seen in his words that every Christian who beseeches the Lord today to enlighten their understanding, is in fact asking to see and hear “…things so astounding that they are beyond a man's power to describe or put in words…” -- and after they gaze upon these mysteries, what they have witnessed will be of such a profound nature that they will “…not [be] allowed to tell them to others” (2 Cor 12:4 TLB).    Why?   Why will they not be allowed by Divine Decree, to convey to the believers in the Church what they have seen and witnessed?   Because in not having evolved through the process of spiritual transformation, they are still of a carnal mind -- a mindset that Paul warns: The... “carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God... For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God” (Rom 8:7-8;13 NKJ).    

When Paul warned that he could only speak to the believers at Corinth as   "...men of flesh, as to babes in Christ” (1 Cor 3:1 NAS), what he was warning was that “Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil” (Heb 5:13-14 NIV).   And because they are yet carnal -- not having undergone the process of spiritual transformation -- Paul warned that “And if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know” (1 Cor 8:2 NKJ).   For if man could simply open the scriptures and be able to discern the Truth, Jesus would not have said of his disciples: “For I tell you the truth, many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it” (Matt 13:17 NIV).   Why did Jesus say these words?   Because the majority of believers who attempted to read the scriptures literally, and observe the oracles of the Word in a ritualized outward manner, were the counterfeit believers whose carnal mindset had spiritually disenfranchised them from the Kingdom within. 

The evidence has proven that when the scriptures were given to the Gentiles, they immediately began to corrupt them (see Bible Corruption )and misinterpret the meaning because they did not possess the necessary Key of Knowledge.   And this prompted James to write in the Epistle of Peter and James: "Hear me, brethren and fellow-servants. If we should give the books to all indiscriminately, and they should be corrupted by any daring men, or be perverted by interpretations, as you have heard that some have already done, it will remain even for those who really seek the truth, always to wander in error.   Wherefore it is better that they should be with us, and that we should  communicate them with all the fore-mentioned care to those who wish to live piously, and to save others."    

The fact is attested to that the Ebionite/Nazirene Disciples of Yeshua did not give the Gentiles the most spiritual scriptures -- i.e., in the words of St. Jerome: "A difficult work is enjoined, since this translation has been commanded me by your Felicities, which St. Matthew himself, the Apostle and Evangelist, did not wish to be openly written. For if it had not been Secret, he would have added to the evangel that which he gave forth was his; but he made up this book sealed up in the Hebrew characters, which he put forth even in such a way that the book, written in Hebrew letters and by the hand of himself, might be possessed by the men most religious, who also, in the course of time, received it from those who preceded them. But this very book they never gave to any one to be transcribed, and its text they related some one way and some another".  This Secret more Spiritual version of the Book of Matthew was referred to by Gibbon where he wrote: "But the secret and authentic history has been recorded in several copies of the Gospel according to St. Matthew, which these sectaries long preserved in the original Hebrew, as the sole evidence of their faith."

Why would it be written by James and Peter that if this essential knowledge was lost, that "...it will remain even for those who really seek the truth, always to wander in error."?   Why couldn't believers merely read the scriptures, and know the truth?    For many of the very same reasons why Paul warned that the believers of a natural organic mind will look upon the Mysteries of God as "foolishness"!   Why Paul warned that those who knew the Truth by virtue of their inner spiritual experiences, were not permitted to tell others what they witnessed in the Kingdom -- i.e., “…things so astounding that they are beyond a man's power to describe or put in words…” -- and after the few who have themselves walked in TheWay, and brought about the necessary spiritual transformation of their body and mind are able to gaze upon these mysteries, what they have witnessed will be of such a profound nature that they will “…not [be] allowed to tell them to others” (2 Cor 12:4 TLB).

The Tower Of Babel

A Portrayal Of The Laws of

Divine Strategery

 

All People Dwell Under The Illusion & Confusion Of

The Tower Of Babel Syndrome

“Now the whole world had one language and a common speech… But the LORD came down to see the city and the tower that the men were building. The LORD said, ‘If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them. Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other’” (Gen 11:1-7 NIV).      Until you come to understand the deeper meaning of the account of the Tower of Babel, you will continue to dwell under the illusion of Divine Strategery which will limit your perception and, through the workings of the Laws, greatly suppress your understanding.    Men and women speak a different language where they remain ignorant of the fact that they each bring alternate realities to the equation of gender harmony and conflict.  The races manifest different and sometimes incompatible areas of mind as expressed through the pattern of the Tree of Life.   There is the possibility of 144,000 fragments of mind from which stems a language and understanding unique to it's own sphere of perception and comprehension.   And this quagmire of massive division and state of confusion is brought about by the Laws of God, that few organic people of this world are able to understand.   

 The Key

To The Tower Of Babel Dilemma

In the allegorical drama presented, the flaw in the thinking of the people -- and this flaw is observed in the thinking of all people of an organic mindset -- is seen in the attempt to build the tower that reaches into the Heavens using only the earthly thinking and mindset of this world.   The Key to the Dilemma is in the phrase: “...they are one people, and they have all one language; and this is only the beginning of what they will do; and nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them” (Gen 11:6 RSV).    Thus, the key is found in the ONENESS that permits a person to accomplish all things -- "...and nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them”!!!   But how to achieve this Oneness, is not something that is easily understood.   Moreover, in the same way that the outer world is a place of confusion and conflict -- i.e., the many languages that express reality differently -- the many factions that attempt to silence and prevail against all others -- what most people fail to recognize is the fact that what exists without us, also exists within us -- and it is only our own inability to perceive the reality of self in Wholeness, that shelters us from the true quagmire of our own mind and being.   

How Can This Be?

The Journey Of The Prodigal Son

If this is true, then it would appear that God has abandoned us!   This can't be!   Yet, in the parable of the prodigal son, this is exactly how the journey of the soul is presented.   The prodigal son who dwelt in the Kingdom of our Heavenly Father, ventured into the "far country" where he came under the control of what is portrayed as the "citizen" of this realm.   While here, the citizen which is portrayed by Paul as the god of this world, possessed total control of the thinking, mindset and life of the lost prodigal son who was portrayed as (spiritually) dead.   And regardless of the fact that the son had to endure much suffering and great hardships, the Father did not attempt in any manner to save him from his fate.   Why?   When the prodigal son was suffering the hardships -- immersed in the ignorance of the Far Country -- and dwelled in a state of spiritual disenfranchisement -- why didn't the Father come to his aide?    Because this world is God's School House where his sons and daughters evolve and grow to maturity -- as did their elder Brother Jesus and others who have themselves walked in TheWay.   And as portrayed in the parable of the prodigal son which Jesus taught, it was not until the son had matured to the degree that he understood and comprehended his plight, that he was able to return to the Kingdom and enter into Life.   Thus, so long as man dwells in this, the far country -- and embraces the thinking and mindset of the religious leaders and authorities of this world -- he will remain under the power and control of the god of this world.   And it is not until he matures enough to break free from the shackles of ignorance and corruption, that he will be given the Power to begin the journey in TheWay that will return him to his Source of Being.   And the secret to understanding, is portrayed in the desire of the son to become as a servant.   Therefore, it will impossible for you to know the Truth -- or escape the "outer darkness" of this world -- until you first understand what it means to become a servant of TheWay -- and live the life of the servant in word, thought, desire and deed.

 

 

 

The Laws That Perfect Mankind

-- Cause And Effect --

What Is The Source Of Evil?

Why Does Bad Things Happen To Seemingly Good People?

Would A Benevolent God Permit Human Suffering?

If There Is A God, Why Doesn't He Fix This World?

 

 

If we pose the question as to what degree life on earth is predestined?   It is at this point where the biblical teaching of predestination gets really frightening for the vast majority of people who do not possess the necessary knowledge of the Laws that control every event, endeavor and person in this world.    From a biblical perspective, this all-pervading fact is demonstrated in Jesus' own words when he said: “Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground without your Father's will” (Matt 10:29 RSV).   If a sparrow cannot fall to the ground apart from the Will of the Father, then we have no other option than to come to terms with the biblical fact that everything in this life is directly orchestrated by God?   On this verse the Adam Clark Commentary states: “The providence of God extends to the minutest things; everything is continually under the government and care of God, and nothing occurs without his will or permission”.   And this fact of the Laws is expressed in the Wisdom of Isaiah: “I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say: My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please” (Isa 46:10 NIV).

Just as important as the above statement by Jesus, is the very words he spoke to the man who he healed when he warned: "Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee" (John 5:14 KJV).   We must therefore ask: If our own actions can cause "...a worse thing come unto [us]", how is this tribulation brought about?  The answer is that there were Laws put into action at the very beginning of Creation which returns to each person the fruit of their own actions -- “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows” (Gal 6:7 NIV).   With respect to the above, Paul went on to say that someone who professes to believe in Jesus, and continues to sin, are not only apostates to the Gospel, but that their fate is worse off than the unbelievers -- i.e., "For it is impossible to restore again to repentance those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come, if they then commit apostasy, since they crucify the Son of God on their own account and hold him up to contempt.. For if we sin deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a fearful prospect of judgment, and a fury of fire which will consume the adversaries." (Heb 6:4-6;10:26-27 RSV).   And how is this judgment brought about?  By virtue of the Laws that return to each person the fruit of their own past.

Without Exception, every person is at their present station in life, by virtue of the road they personally traveled to get there.   Without Exception, everything that exists, exists for a reason -- and has been brought about as the result by a pre-existing cause, which has become manifest in order to bring about a preordained result.   Without Exception, your present life is the result of your past, and you are presently creating and forming your future.    Without Exception, if you are a victim of any of life's circumstances, then you have made yourself a victim by virtue of your own actions, inactions, or complacency.    Without Exception, your own past actions is responsible for your present gender, race, sexual orientation, social and economic station in life, manner of thinking and mindset, and even the religious, political and cultural conditions of the life you are presently living.   

It is the mind that raises man above the beasts of the earth -- that permits him to prevail over the forces of nature -- that enables him to rule over his environment -- overcoming even the very force of gravity that holds him to the earth, and traveling to distant heavenly bodies that his ancestors worshiped as gods.   And to escape the limitations of this world, and begin to rule of one's self in pursuit of the Inner Kingdom (see Gate Of Eden) -- and through this expansion of the mind beyond the organic limitations of earth-consciousness, the prodigal sons and daughters are able to fulfill the Laws in the same way as their Elder Brother Jesus taught, and become re-born in the Kingdom while still in the body-vessel.   Thus, to this end the Gospel of Philip declares: "Those who say that first they shall die and (then) they shall arise are confused. If they do not first receive the resurrection (while) they live, they will not receive anything (when) they die"( http://DivineManna.org ).

 

Early Church on Predestination: In the words of the third century Church Father Origen -- the man St. Gregory of Nyssa called “the prince of Christian learning in the Third Century”: “We have frequently shown”, writes Origen, “by those declarations which we were able to produce from the holy Scriptures, that God, the Creator of all things, is good, and just, and all-powerful… But since those rational creatures themselves, as we have frequently shown, and will yet show in the proper place, were endowed with the power of free-will, this freedom of will incited each one either to progress by imitation of God, or reduced him to failure through negligence… Now God, who deemed it just to arrange His creatures according to their merit, brought down these different understandings into the harmony of one world, that He might adorn, as it were, one dwelling, in which there ought to be not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay (and some indeed to honor, and others to dishonor), with those different vessels, or souls, or understandings. And these are the causes… why that world presents the aspect of diversity, while Divine Providence continues to regulate each individual according to the variety of his movements, or of his feelings and purpose. On which account the Creator will neither appear to be unjust in distributing (for the causes already mentioned) to every one according to his merits; nor will the happiness or unhappiness of each one's birth, or whatever be the condition that falls to his lot, be deemed accidental; nor will different creators, or souls of different natures, be believed to exist” (De Principiis, Bk 2 Ch 9).

What Origen is stating is that, in the beginning, each soul was created equal and the same, and their place in life is not the result of an accident, or the indiscriminate manifestation of God's Will in the form of Divine Providence -- but rather, each soul's lot in life is the result of the exercise of their own freewill, and consequently is arranged “according to their merit”.   This merit is not the result of some unknown condition -- but rather, is imposed upon each individual in accordance with what they have accomplished in their previous lives.

Origen then goes on to demonstrate this truth by using the very example which the Apostle Paul gave with regard to Esau and Jacob, and writes: “‘What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God?' And that he might furnish us with an opportunity of inquiring into these matters, and of ascertaining how these things do not happen without a reason, he answers himself, and says, 'God forbid.' For the same question, as it seems to me, which is raised concerning Jacob and Esau, may be raised regarding all celestial and terrestrial creatures, and even those of the lower world as well. And in like manner it seems to me, that as he there says, 'The children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil,' so it might also be said of all other things, 'When they were not yet' created, 'neither had yet done any good or evil, that the decree of God according to election may stand,' that (as certain think) some things on the one hand were created heavenly, some on the other earthly, and others, again, beneath the earth, 'not of works' (as they think), 'but of Him who calleth,' what shall we say then, if these things are so? 'Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid.' As, therefore, when the Scriptures are carefully examined regarding Jacob and Esau, it is not found to be unrighteousness with God that it should be said, before they were born, or had done anything in this life, 'the elder shall serve the younger;' and as it is found not to be unrighteousness that even in the womb Jacob supplanted his brother, if we feel that he was worthily beloved by God, according to the deserts of his previous life, so as to deserve to be preferred before his brother”.

God did not hate Esau and love Jacob for no reason!   To even believe such a preposterous concept of Divine Wisdom is to affirm Peter's assertion that the Gentiles believe these absurdities because “their minds are accustomed to take in things spoken against God.   Respecting the Divine Order of Creation, Origen then continues referring to the Paul’s Epistle to the Romans and goes on to explain: “For God must be believed to do and order all things and at all times according to His judgment. For the words which the apostle uses when he says, ‘In a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and of earth, and some to honor and some to dishonor;' and those which he adds, saying, 'If a man purge himself, he will be a vessel unto honor, sanctified and meet for the Master's use, unto every good work,' undoubtedly point out this, that he who shall purge himself when he is in this life, will be prepared for every good work in that which is to come; while he who does not purge himself will be, according to the amount of his impurity, a vessel unto dishonor, i.e., unworthy. It is therefore possible to understand that there have been also formerly rational vessels, whether purged or not, i.e., which either purged themselves or did not do so, and that consequently every vessel, according to the measure of its purity or impurity, received a place, or region, or condition by birth, or an office to discharge, in this world. All of which, down to the humblest, God providing for and distinguishing by the power of His wisdom, arranges all things by His controlling judgment, according to a most impartial retribution, so far as each one ought to be assisted or cared for in conformity with his deserts. In which certainly every principle of equity is shown, while the inequality of circumstances preserves the justice of a retribution according to merit. But the grounds of the merits in each individual case are only recognized truly and clearly by God Himself, along with His only-begotten Word, and His Wisdom, and the Holy Spirit”.

Origen again demonstrates that our lot in life is the result of our own deserts, and writes: “For God the Creator makes a certain vessel unto honor, and other vessels to dishonor; but that vessel which has cleansed itself from all impurity He makes a vessel unto honor, while that which has stained itself with the filth of vice He makes a vessel unto dishonor. The conclusion from which, accordingly, is this, that the cause of each one's actions is a pre-existing one; and then every one, according to his deserts, is made by God either a vessel unto honor or dishonor. Therefore every individual vessel has furnished to its Creator out of itself the causes and occasions of its being formed by Him to be either a vessel unto honor or one unto dishonor. And if the assertion appear correct, as it certainly is, and in harmony with all piety, that it is due to previous causes that every vessel be prepared by God either to honor or to dishonor, it does not appear absurd that, in discussing remoter causes in the same order, and in the same method, we should come to the same conclusion respecting the nature of souls, and (believe) that this was the reason why Jacob was beloved before he was born into this world, and Esau hated, while he still was contained in the womb of his mother”.

 

Why Does Knowledge Of The Laws Matter?

Jesus not only taught that the life that everyone is living has been predestined from before they were even born, but that one's failure to embrace and abide by the Higher Law of Creator-God, will bring about a type of imprisonment -- an  imprisonment that is portrayed as the "outer darkness" of mind and being below.  Thus the oft ignored warning: “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows” (Gal 6:7 NIV).   In speaking of this prison of the "outer darkness", Jesus warned that “Thou shalt by no means come out from there, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing” (Mat 5:26).   And while this reality was understood by the early Ebionite Nazirene disciples of Jesus (see Ebionite), and the early Gentile Christians (see The Secret Doctrine), this higher understanding of the journey of the pre-existent soul and the interaction with the Laws, was declared heresy by the Emperor Justinian because his circus prostitute wife rejected these important teachings of the Church (see The Ten Reasons Why The Church Rejected The Doctrine Of The Pre-Existent Soul).    And many of the biblical teachings which supported these teachings, had previously been removed to make the scriptures support the pagan doctrines of Rome (see http://BibleCorruption.com ).  

Even in what remains in the corrupted scriptures, it can still be seen that Jesus taught that each person is born into this life in accord with their own past accomplishments.   "And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to each according to his own ability; and immediately he went on a journey" (Matt 25:15 NKJ).   The key concept here is that each person in this world is not only entrusted with a different amount, but that each person is entrusted with an amount "...each according to his own ability."   What this means is that each and every person was born into this life, exactly as ordained for them in accord with their own past accomplishments, and those who find fault with their lot in life, are in reality judging themselves.  

It is interesting to note that the most popular and used scripture of the earliest Gentile Christians was the Shepherd of Hermas (see Shepherd Intro), which was later suppressed by the Church of Rome because it was unacceptable from a pagan mindset and lifestyle.   And in addition to revealing the threefold nature of the scriptures (see Threefold), the understanding of caring for the poor, the widows and orphans, that is not at all understood today, is presented in this important writing (see Widows).  

The proper mindset with respect to the Laws, is expressed throughout the scriptures.   The Ten Commandments thus state: "You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor's" (Exod 20:17 NKJ).   Why?   Because each man's life is the direct result of their own previous actions and accomplishments -- and that they fail to remember these pre-existent actions, is because they dwell in the "outer darkness".    And this is further confirmed in the Shepherd of Hermas which commands: "The expenditure of the heathen then practice not ye; for it is not convenient for you the servants of God.  But practice your own expenditure, in which ye can rejoice; and do not corrupt, neither touch that which is another man's, nor lust after it; for it is wicked to lust after other men's possessions."

By virtue of the Laws that orchestrated and dictated every part of the life that every man, woman and child is presently living, every person is at their present station in life, by virtue of the road they personally traveled to get there.   The conditions of your birth, as well as the life you are living, has been brought about, orchestrated, and maintained, by the Laws of God -- Laws that insure that each and every "...man reaps what he sows” (Gal 6:7 NIV).

And everything that exists, not only exists for a higher reason -- but has been brought about and is the direct result of pre-existing causal reasons, which have become manifest in order to bring about a preordained result.    When you desire or lust after what the Laws of God has provided for your neighbor, or any other group of people, then you not only reject the Hand of God that provided in accord with your own needs, but you have sinned against God because you reject His Wisdom in what was provided for others. 

The Chickens Come Home To Roost!

As portrayed in the above presentation of The Laws That Perfect Mankind, the term the chickens come home to roost is merely an acknowledgement of the workings of these Laws.   Malcolm X used the phrase in response to the assassination of Pres. John Kennedy.   While Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson did not explicitly use this phrase, the meaning was the same when they attempted to portray the disaster of 9-11 as being caused by the sin of the American people in their rejection of the Laws of God as presented in the Bible.   Because Pat Robertson has embraced the doctrines of Pagan Rome (see The Christian Judas), Robertson was forced to deny the teachings of Jesus, and apologize because of his own spiritual ignorance which inhibited him from explaining what both the Bible and Jesus directly taught.   More recently, it has been demonstrated that just after 9-11 the spiritual mentor of Sen. Barack Obama used this phrase to present the argument that God is punishing (white) American because of their past where they enslaved the black race.  

While the statement with respect to the chickens coming home to roost is true, because the religious leaders who have attempted to use it are all ignorant of the Movement of the Laws of God, they have been unable to explain exactly how and why the chickens do come home to roost.   On September 11th, 2001, the very liberal New York City and the very liberal United States was brought into the presence of reality, and was mugged by Islamic terrorists who believed they were doing good by striking a blow against the Great Satan.   What the left leaning liberal Bill Clinton, and the right leaning Jerry Falwell each predicted, was that the United States had angered God.   Falwell and Clinton had each suggested that the September 11th attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon was the result of debts that were owed by the American people.   While Bill Clinton in his speech at Georgetown University did not out right attribute the devastation at the hands of Islamic terrorists directly to the Will of God, as did Falwell, there can be no other reasonable explanation.

Interestingly, when Jerry Falwell proclaimed that the cause of the World Trade Center disaster was due to God’s anger over the immorality and ungodliness that has overcome the Nation as it continues its downward spiral into the decadence of Sodom and Gomorrah, the liberal leaning media was aghast that he would make such a statement.   People were appalled that Jerry Falwell, and then Pat Robertson, could even suggest that God had brought judgment upon the American people in the manner of the biblical portrayal of Sodom and Gomorrah.   Yet, as typical of liberals, very little protest was raised by the left leaning media when Bill Clinton warned that we were suffering the consequences of a nation that was both founded on slaves, and disposed and killed native Americans in order to get their land.   Regardless of the fact that we don’t like the message that both have expressed for very different reasons, there is an element of truth to what they are saying.     

In much the same manner, many of the mainstream Reform and Conservative Jews were angered when Rabbi Ovadia Yosefan, the former chief rabbi of Israel, a religious scholar who was also the spiritual leader of the Shas party, made the statement that no innocent Jews died in the Holocaust.  What Rabbi Yosefan said was that the 6 million Holocaust victims "were reincarnations of the souls of sinners, people who transgressed and did all sorts of things that should not be done.”   Rabbi Yosefan explained that these souls who had previously lived lives of sin, “…had been reincarnated in order to atone.”   Immediately, all sectors of the population -- from then Prime Minister Barak, to the Holocaust survivors -- condemned the rabbi's remarks.   In a communiqué issued from his office, Barak stated: “His words are liable to harm the memory of those who perished in the Holocaust and are liable to hurt the feelings of their families and the feelings of the entire nation.”

Legislator Yosef (Tommy) Lapid, who had been himself a Holocaust survivor who at that time headed the secularist Shinui party, condemned Rabbi Yosef’s statements and said he was “… in effect confirming what Hitler said, that the Jews are sinners.”    Holocaust organizations and the two main Israeli radio stations reported that they were inundated with phone calls and fax messages, most of them criticizing Yosef's statement.   The Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial Museum labeled Yosef's remarks “miserable” and said they “seriously harm the memory of the victims.”    In a released statement the museum said: “With all due respect to such a leader, it's hard to understand where Rabbi Yosef gets the courage to explain the intentions and ways of the supreme authority.”    Attempting to clarify his words in the following week to a populace that did not comprehend one of the most paramount teachings of both the Old and New Testaments of the Bible, Rabbi Yosef cited a 16th century Jewish mystic, Isaac Luria, who wrote: “If the soul was not purified entirely the first time, and it left this world, that soul must come back in a reincarnation, even a few times, until it is entirely purified.”

What Rabbi Yosef stated was that all those Jews who died at the hands of Hitler, were merely reaping their own debts they had themselves committed in a previous life!    From the perspective of the Laws that everyone is in denial of, “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows” (Gal 6:7 NIV).   And this could just as well be expressed in the words: The chickens of those people who suffered under Hitler, had come home to roost.  

What the Rabbi suggested was even though we may appear to be the innocent victim in this present life, this was not always the case -- and each of us inherits both the good and the evil that we have personally and collectively engendered in the previous existences our soul has lived prior to our being born into the present life we are now living -- as so clearly stated in the words of the Church Father Origen when he wrote: “Every soul... comes into this world strengthened by the victories or weakened by the defeats of its previous life” (Origen, De Principiis).   

Thus, the common message that Jerry Falwell, Bill Clinton, Pat Robertson, Jeremiah Wright and the Rabbi Yosef all proclaimed, was the conformation of the great biblically defined truth that what goes around comes around: “Even as I have seen, those who plow iniquity and sow trouble reap the same” (Job 4:8 NKJ); “Therefore they shall eat the fruit of their own way, and be filled to the full with their own fancies” (Prov 1:31 NKJ); “But you have planted wickedness, you have reaped evil, you have eaten the fruit of deception” (Hosea 10:13 NIV); “God will give to each person according to what he has done” (Rom 2:6 NIV); “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that nature will reap destruction; the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life” (Gal 6:7-8 NIV); “If anyone has an ear, let him hear. He who leads into captivity shall go into captivity; he who kills with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints” (Rev 13:9-10 NKJ); “Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed; for in the image of God has God made man” (Gen 9:6 NIV); “His disciples asked him [Jesus], Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?” (Jn 9:2 NIV).   Yet, because certain New Testament teachings were removed by the Pagan Church of Rome, modern Christians are at a total loss when they attempt to explain how the Laws work in the life of man -- and even the very reason why bad things seemingly happed to good people -- or why a benevolent God ordains the good and evil that man is incapable of understanding.

While Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson do not believe in the pre-existence of the soul, and we are not quite sure exactly what Bill Clinton believes in, we can easily see that the position of Rabbi Yosef was not only biblically based, but is very much in accord with the original teachings of the New Covenant.   In the 69th chapter of the Gospel of the Nazirenes (see Gospel), Jesus is asked: “Master, if a man die, shall he live again?”   While every Christian will agree with the reply of Jesus in the words: “I am the resurrection and the life, I am the good, the beautiful, the true; if a man believe in me he shall not die, but live eternally,” where modern believers depart from the original teachings of TheWay is seen in the biblical interpretation of what it means to believe in the Lord, and what is required in order to live eternally.   Of those who believe, Jesus said: “As in Adam all die, so in the Christ shall all be made alive. Blessed are the dead who die in me, and are made perfect in my image and likeness, for they rest from their labors and their works do follow them. They have overcome evil, and are made pillars in the temple of my God, and they go out no more, for they rest in the eternal.”   While modern Christians will readily accept the idea that they will be made perfect in the image and likeness of Christ, the problem is seen in the words that they will “…go out no more”.

While Jerry Falwell and Bill Clinton agreed that man will be judged and owe a debt for his evil, only Rabbi Yosef correctly predicted the means and process by which the Most High God employs to correct the evilness and debts of mankind, as seen in the very next warning of Jesus: “For them that persist in evil there is no rest, but they go out and in, and suffer correction for ages, till they are made perfect. But for them that have done good and attained to perfection, there is endless rest and they go into life everlasting. They rest in the eternal. Over them the repeated death and birth have no power, for them the wheel of the eternal revolves no more, for they have attained to the center, where is eternal rest, and the center of all things is God.”   

If these words are true, and there is no rest for those who persist in doing evil because they are forced back into life in this world where they “…go out and in, and suffer correction for ages, till they are made perfect,” then we must pose the question as to how we will recognize these souls when they re-enter this life?   For the most part we can’t -- and they will appear to us as innocent men, women and children, unless we ourselves possess the spiritual eyes to see their more distant past that was beyond their entrance into this present life.   Thus, we can see the words of wisdom when Rabbi Yosefan said of the Jews who died in the Holocaust that they "were reincarnations of the souls of sinners, people who transgressed and did all sorts of things that should not be done.”  

What this means is that those who suffered in the Holocaust came into that life to pay back a debt that was incurred in a previous life, and what Rabbi Yosefan was merely acknowledging was the very clearly defined doctrine that everything in life is predestined -- as demonstrated in Jesus' own words when he said: “Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground without your Father's will” (Matt 10:29 RSV).   If, as Jesus taught, a sparrow cannot fall to the ground apart and without the Will of the Father, then we have no other option than to come to terms with the biblical fact that everything in this life is directly orchestrated by God?   On this verse the Adam Clark Commentary states: “The providence of God extends to the minutest things; everything is continually under the government and care of God, and nothing occurs without his will or permission”. Perhaps even more enlightening is the biblically based explanation provided to us under the heading of Providence in the Nelson's Illustrated Bible Dictionary where it is explained that: “Divine government is the continued activity of God by which He directs all things to the ends He has chosen in His eternal plan… He governs insignificant things (Matt. 10:29-31), apparent accidents (Prov. 16:33), as well as man's good (Phil. 2:13) and evil deeds (Acts 14:16). God acts in accordance with the laws and principles that He has established in the world. The laws of nature are nothing more than man's description of how we perceive God at work in the world. They neither have inherent power nor do they work by themselves. Man is not free to choose and act independently from God's will and plan; he chooses and acts in accordance with them. In His sovereignty, God controls man's choices and actions (Gen. 45:5; Deut. 8:18; Prov. 21:1). God's actions, however, do not violate the reality of human choice or negate man's responsibility as a moral being”.

What is truly important for us to begin to comprehend in these words is the profound statement which truly conveys the reality of life in the words that “God acts in accordance with the laws and principles that He has established in the world. The laws of nature are nothing more than man's description of how we perceive God at work in the world. They neither have inherent power nor do they work by themselves.”  

What does this mean to us?   If it is true that not one sparrow can “…fall to the ground without your Father's will” (Matt 10:29 RSV), then Jerry Falwell and Bill Clinton would be correct in their assertion that the United States owes a debt, and the terrorists attacks on us were not only known beforehand, but were actually permitted by the “…laws and principles that He [God] has established in the world.”   Moreover, what this means is that those who appear to be innocent victims, actually entered into this life knowing that they would be required to repay a debt for their own past actions in a previous life.   And this is the very reality portrayed above by the Church Father Origen when he explained: "...that the cause of each one's actions is a pre-existing one; and then every one, according to his deserts, is made by God either a vessel unto honor or dishonor. Therefore every individual vessel has furnished to its Creator out of itself the causes and occasions of its being formed by Him to be either a vessel unto honor or one unto dishonor.

 

Failure To Perceive And Understand

The Reflection Of Self When

The Chickens Come Home To Roost

In the same way that the Jews rejected the wisdom and understanding of the Laws that caused them to be victims of the holocaust -- even when it was their own Holy Man and Jewish Mystic whose teachings they rejected -- few people possess the insight to see that it is themselves that they are judging, or the knowledge to understand the movement of the Laws in their own lives.   Liberals such as Bill Clinton who have been diminishing the Constitution, and empowering Secular Progressives who want to re-define the Rights of Man from being God-Given, to that which government permits,  are themselves invoking the Laws that will destroy our Constitutional form of government (see The Laws That Will Destroy America).   Both Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson fail to see that the decadence of Western culture, is due to the perpetuation of the pagan doctrines of Rome which they continue to promote.    As demonstrated in the Blog article entitled The Enslavement Of Black Liberation Theology, black activists such as the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, were themselves the very slave owners of the past who they condemn in the present.     

Quoting the Blog article entitled The Enslavement Of Black Liberation Theology : How did the thinking of these men get this way? In past lives, most of them were the very white slave owners that they hold the white race accountable for today.  Jesus warned that as ye judge, so shall you be judged -- and this is accomplished and brought about by the Laws when you literally become what you judged or oppressed.  Thus, in the case of Jeremiah Wright, him and his followers not only became the race that they oppressed, but in the same way that as whites, they abused blacks, as blacks, they hate the white race.  Further, their hatred of everything American, is the result of their being the very Confederate forces that opposed the Union with the same vehemence, that we can see in the words of men such as Jeremiah Wright today. Because they exploited blacks, they were born into this present life as African-Americans -- the very form of the people they oppressed and hated in the past.  And because they fail to redeem themselves as blacks in the present -- blaming others for the conditions of their birth -- they will continue to switch back and forth from life to life, as aggressor and oppressed, until they see and redeem the error of their ways.   And if the Rev. Wright had anything in common with the teachings of Jesus who taught to pray for those who persecute you -- never returning evil for evil -- forgiving those who would be indebted to you -- they would be preaching forgiveness instead of the doctrine of racial hatred. Once properly understood in light of the genuine teachings of Jesus, what the Sermon on the Mount basically is, is a means for those imprisoned, to get out of their self-imposed jail that is maintained by the Laws "...till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing” (Mat 5:26).  But to release yourself from the Laws that imprison you, you must once again re-enter the vibration of mind and reality that caused your imprisonment.  If you are a thief, then you must see the error of your ways when you are either a thief, or the victim of a thief when you pray for the soul of a thief.  If you are a whore, a homosexual, a rapist, a murderer, or what ever in life is your cause of imprisonment -- i.e., (see below) “Thou shalt by no means come out from there, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing” (Mat 5:26) -- then you can only free yourself when you are in one of the positive or negative cycles that hold you in the loop of Action/Reaction, Cause and Effect.   Instead of preaching the hatred of homosexuals, the Rev. Phelps (see http://www.godhatesfags.com/ ) should be praying for their redemption from the shackles that has caused these people to be born a homosexual.   Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell should have examined the flaws in the manmade doctrines they were preaching.   Bill Clinton should have examined the folly of the Marxist Secular Progressive agenda that he and his wife Hillary have been trying to unleash upon the American people.   And in the same way that the Rev. Wright was in all likelihood a white slave owner in the past, the Rev. Phelps was a homosexual.   And because they have both rejected the Wisdom of the teachings of Jesus which they claim to represent, each will again become what they persecute.

Using a rapist as an example: A rapist, will continue to loop in the positive and negative cycles of rapist and victim -- from life to life -- until which time the rapist sees the error of his ways as a rapist, or prays and forgives a rapist as a victim of rape.   Modern medical science has only now come to understand that behavior -- even criminal behavior -- is programmed into the DNA and genes of a person -- and this programming is the Laws which have brought the chickens home to roost in the life of every individual.   And this is true of all the conditions of life that most people despise.   In the above case of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, his failure to repent from his own past as a white slave owner -- and the fact in the present, he blames the white race for his own evil that he perpetrated in his more distant past -- his rejection of the teachings of the Sermon on the Mount will continue to hold him in the karmic loop maintained by the Laws.   Further, many of the congregation of believers who are praising his gospel of hatred that the Rev. Wright and others presently preach, were the very Confederate soldiers who opposed and fought the Union armies. What this means is that what today is known as Black Liberation Theology, will continue to enslave these souls in the future, until they begin to embrace the spiritual concepts of the Sermon on the Mount, and free themselves from the shackles of ignorance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Call

Man Dwells In The "Outer Darkness" Of Consciousness

In the Gospel of Matthew the term "outer darkness" is used three times in conjunction with the fate of the Jews who did not seek to walk in TheWay.   Who dwells in the "outer darkness"?   It is used in conjunction with the person who failed to put on the required wedding garment -- and in conjunction with the servant who put his talent into the earth, instead of multiplying what he had received.    In each case it portrays a person who is a believer, but has not lived their lives in accord with the Law and teachings of TheWay.    And the differentation is made between those who dwell in the "outer darkness", and those who are portrayed as being imprisoned by the Laws of this world -- i.e., “Thou shalt by no means come out from there, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing” (Mat 5:26).

It is therefore important to understand the difference between a person portrayed as being imprisoned, and one who has been cast into the "outer darkness".    What is the "outer darkness"?   What it represents is the outer dimensions of mind and consciousness that is associated with the natural organic mind of man.  Paul described the Christians who had yet to undergo the process of transformation, as being of a "natural" mind -- carnal, and too immature to comprehend the higher reality of the soul and the Mysteries of the Kingdom (see Organic Consciousness).   With respect to this condition of mind and being, the scriptures warn that it is the reason why the people of this world will look upon the Mysteries of God as utter "foolishness"!!!    All of us are equally the Prodigal Sons and Daughters of our Heavenly Father.   We are presently dwelling in the "far country" -- dwelling under the power of what the parable portrays as the "citizen" of this world.    Paul called it the god of this world.  The first Spiritual Christians called it the Demiurge, because this Power of the Left Hand is the creator of illusion that keeps the Prodigal Sons and Daughters as slaves to the things of this world.   And as the prodigal sons who dwell in the "far country... outer darkness" of mind and being, all of mankind dwells in a state of ignorance with respect to the inner reality of his soul and spiritual natures -- as well as the Inner Kingdom (Lk 17:20-21) -- because he has been cast into what the Bible calls the "outer darkness" of consciousness.   Thus, until, in the manner of Jesus' portrayal of the prodigal son, he is ready to arise and "turn about", he will remain under the illusion of unknowing and ignorance of his true self -- surrendering his inheritance as the Offspring of the Most High -- until which time he is ready to return Home to his Source of Being.  Jesus warned those who want to be his disciples and followers, not to believe the teachers and authorities of this world, because they have all been deceived by the god of this world -- i.e., the keeper of the School House of this world.   Jesus taught that there is the Power of the Left Hand that Rules this world -- and the Power of the Right Hand that draws the true seeker who has put on his "Wedding Garment" into the Marriage with the Divine Bridegroom of our inner souls.   Which means that to hear and come to TheCall, all we need to do is apply the Key of Knowledge in our lives, strive to live the Consecrated Life that Jesus Ordained, seek the Divine Manna of Heaven which is given only to those who are worthy to receive it, and seek the Kingdom within.

Fulfill The Royal Law

When the man addressed Jesus with the title of "good master", and asked him what he must do to have eternal life, Jesus replied: “Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments” (Matt 19:17 KJV).   If Jesus was God, he would have accepted the title of Good Master.   He would have replied: Believe in me, and you will have eternal life.  And if the Law was done away with as Christians maintain, he never would have told the man: "...but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments”.   Paul correctly warns that the written Law is an allegory that contains an inner meaning not apparent to those who read the written word that he calls the "letter that killeth".    And with respect to the deeper spiritual meaning, Jesus said: "The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life" (John 6:63 NIV).   Before a believer can become a disciple of Jesus and TheWay, they must first fulfill the Law within themselves.   And those who have remained of a natural organic mind, and have yet to bring about the transformation that fulfilling the Law initiates in their lives -- i.e., "Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature" (Col 3:5 NIV). To the degree that Paul warned: “For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live” (Rom 8:13 KJV) -- remain carnal, and cannot become a disciple and enter into Life.   And as prodigal sons and daughters who have not come to TheCall, they remain spiritually disenfranchised from the Inner Kingdom, and dwell under the power of the god of this world -- they cannot know the Truth, because they dwell in what the Bible portrays as the "outer darkness".

Jesus Taught

Only The Few Can Enter Into Life

If this is true, then it would appear that God has abandoned us!   This can't be!   Yet, in the parable of the prodigal son, this is exactly how the journey of the soul is presented.   The prodigal son who dwelt in the Kingdom of our Heavenly Father, ventured into the "far country" where he came under the control of what is portrayed as the "citizen" of this realm.   While here, the citizen which is portrayed by Paul as the god of this world, possessed total control of the thinking, mindset and life of the prodigal son.   The first Spiritual Christians called the god of this world the Demiurge -- because he keeps the prodigal sons and daughters shackled through the illusion of knowledge.
