Jim Wallis and Sojourners have begun a campaign to bring about an end to what they portray as the Sexual Violence And The Church — which violence they attribute to Masculine Christianity.   But what is the cause of violence — sexual and otherwise?   If violence is a spiritual and mental disease that plagues mankind, can man’s condition of violence be cured, without first understanding the cause of the disease?

While wisdom and spiritual knowledge can save the soul, when man’s religious leaders are blind and totally deficient in knowledge and understanding, such misguided well-meaning men will lead you into the abyss of even greater suffering and despair.   And when rightly understood, this same plight of mankind can be expressed in the wisdom that those who fail to learn the lessons of man’s past, are doomed to repeat them — over, and over, and over again.   Why?   Because in the original teachings of Jesus, an understanding of the Natural Laws was laid down with respect to the cycles of life — Natural Laws that controlled all events and occurrences in life — and it was recognized that the same souls are returned back to life to confront their own past Conditions Of Birth.   From the perspective of pop-culture, this can be portrayed in the words: What goes around, comes around — or, from life to life one’s own chickens come home to roost — which can be expressed in the biblical reality: “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows” (Gal 6:7 NIV).

The disciples asked Jesus about the man who was born blind — and whether his blindness was caused by his own previous sin prior to being born into his present life, or the sin of his parents (see Biblically Based Mindset).   In their ignorance of the Natural Laws, Sojourners takes the position that a man’s actions in the matter of sin, should not come back upon him.   When Jesus healed the man he warned:  “Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee” (John 5:14 KJV).  Which causes us to ask: What force of the Laws would bring a worse condition upon us, if we sin again after being healed?   If it is true that we create the conditions of our life by virtue of our own actions — and the conditions of our life is intended to be a corrective force of healing which invokes a change in behavior — then shouldn’t we learn about the relationship of sin as the causal factor in the conditions of the life that we are presently living? 

Jim Wallis and the people at Sojourners do not understand this fact of life.  In their profound ignorance of the Natural Laws, they assert that it is not right for a man or woman to reap what they have themselves sown — i.e., to inherit the fruit of their own ways.   And if we inquire as to why Jim Wallis and the people at Sojourners are ignorant of the Laws of God?   It is because the Church itself is founded upon what can best be portrayed as The Religion Of Roman Emperors.   Which is based upon a man-made dogmatic foundation that is totally adverse and in conflict with the original Biblically Based Mindset.   What this means is that the modern Church has totally nullified the original Gospel teachings by promulgating man-made doctrines which promote violence and spiritual disenfranchisement.    And what we observe in the world is the effects of the spiritual disease which has totally undermined the original teachings of Jesus and TheWay. 

In the article entitled The Ten Words, the wishful thinking of Sojourners is very much within the scope of what is called The Tinkerbell Effect.    Which is defined as something that “…you think or believe that something is true or will happen, strictly on the basis that you wish it were true or will happen.”  While Sojourners, and those who wish for world-peace and tranquility to come upon mankind, without a knowledge of the causal factors and the Natural Laws which control all events and encounters of man in this world, the wishful thinking of Sojourners is little more than just another example of blind faith in The Tinkerbell Effect.    And perhaps the key to bringing about change, is in the words of Mahatma Gandhi who correctly stated that change can only be brought about when those who desire change become “…the change they want to see in the world”!   Which means that if Jim Wallis and Sojourners truly want to see change in the world with respect to violence against not only women — but against all people — then Sojourners must begin by leading the believers along the path of returning to Gospel First Principles.   

The new campaign of Jim Wallis and Sojourners (faith in action for social justice), is to bring an end to Sexual Violence And The Church.   And while I totally agree with Sojourners position that all violence against all our brothers and sisters worldwide should cease, without understanding the cause of human violence — the naive good intentions of Sojourners will bring about the same results as the Just Say No campaign in the War On Drugs.   Without understanding the causal factors, not only can no progress be made, but often one’s efforts make the original problem even worse.    And if Jim Wallis and his people at Sojourners had even an ounce of insight into the causal factors of the systemic violence as being driven by the Natural Laws of Creation — and if Sojourners possessed a degree of spiritual knowledge with respect to the Original Gospel teachings of Jesus and TheWay — only then could Sojourners vision of man overcoming the forces of violence that immerses our culture and much of this world in abject moral depravity and indifference, could man even begin to overcome the malady of perpetual suffering and despair.    

When rightly understood, the only possible way to end man’s legacy of violence from the Sojourners perspective, would require the suspension and nullification of God’s Laws that were put into effect at the Alpha of Creation.    When rightly portrayed, Jim Wallis and the people at Sojourners want God to repent from the system of development that He brought forth and ordained.   And while this may sound rather bazaar to the people at Sojourners, what they fail to understand is the fact that there is an important reason for what man portrays as evil in the world — i.e., to put it in another way: Evil has a higher purpose.    But to even begin to understand the causal factors of evil and violence, the intelligent Christian would first have to abandon the dogmatic limitations of The Religion Of Roman Emperors, and begin to restore the essence of Truth within the foundations of the Church.   When rightly understood, what man sees as evil is the effect of a spiritual disease — a disease that has been perpetuated through the ignorance of the Natural Laws which control all events in this world.   And this state of abject spiritual ignorance that promotes what man calls evil, begins with man’s ignorance with respect to man’s own Conditions Of Birth!    Not until this world is understood as a Living Bio-Feedback Organism where each individual person is confronted with the actions of their own past — i.e.,  “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows” (Gal 6:7 NIV) — as expressed in the words of the early Church Father Origen where he stated that “Every soul… comes into this world strengthened by the victories or weakened by the defeats of its previous life” (Origen, De Principiis) — can mankind even begin to prevail over the evil and violence that has immersed him in times of great suffering throughout his long history upon the earth, without first understanding the purpose of evil?   

Each man and woman is in fact the lost prodigal son and daughter of Creator-God.   And when mankind ventured into this world that is portrayed as the Far Country, there were a series of Natural Laws which were put into effect that would not only bring about man’s return to the Edenic Kingdom of Origination (see GateOfEden.com), but these Laws were intended to drive fallen man to the required state of Wholeness and Perfection (see The Laws That Perfect Mankind) that would enable his Spiritual Restoration and Return to his Source of Being.   But these important teachings became suppressed and even outlawed, by The Religion Of Roman Emperors.   Which means that the wishful (Tinkerbell) thinking of Sojourners can’t become a reality in the life and existence of mankind, until the Church first returns to the Original teachings and spiritual objectives of the Gospel.   Quoting from The Fourth Fatal Mistake of the Church’s rejection of the Key Of Knowledge: 

 Peace can only be achieved when the Church is restored to its position as the Light of the World — and this can only be accomplished by a restoral of the Original Teachings and Core Gospel First Principles!          

Brother Of Yeshua/Jesus

In the recent Huffington Post Blog article entitled Who Wrote The Bible And Why It Matters, by prof. Bart D. Ehrman, what we have should more appropriately be portrayed as Prof. Ehrman’s Confession of Ignorance.   While I have attempted on a number of occasions to communicate with Bart Ehrman — to portray him as a  Distinguished Professor of Religious Studies, would be like portraying those people who make burgers at McDonald’s, as fine cuisine chefs — which is why I often portray the body of biblical scholars as pseudo-authorities.      Quoting from The Prodigal Son And The Theist/Deist Perception Of Creation:    

Deists such as Thomas Paine often portrayed the literal text of the scriptures as being untrue and not historically accurate.   And when we pose the question: What does the Bible state?   The Apostle Paul portrayed the scriptures as the “letter that killeth” (2 Cor 3:6) and “Jewish fables” (Tit 1:14) — stating that the written text of the scriptures was purely allegorical.   In the article  An Inconvenient Truth the fact is presented that the purpose of the scriptures was to preserve and conceal the esoteric knowledge within the garb of allegory to protect it from the unenlightened carnal believers and their pseudo-religious leaders (see An Inconvenient Truth).   The enlightened few have always pointed out the countless inconsistencies which were purposely inserted into the literal text of the scriptures which the critics portray as being so numerous and unbelievable to a rational minded person, that is was pointed out by the Church Father Origen when he portrayed the literal text as virtually worthless — i.e., “Scripture contains an unhistorical element in-woven with the history, in order that the worthlessness of the latter may drive us to seek the spiritual meaning” (Origen quoted under Origen Adamntius; The Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics).   Further explaining in De Principiis that: “Where the word found that things done according to the history could be adapted to these mystical senses, he made use of them concealing from the multitude the deeper meaning; but where in the narrative of the development of super-sensual things, there did not follow the performance of those certain events which were already indicated by the mystical meaning, the scripture interwove in the history the account of some event that did not take place, sometimes what could not have happened; sometimes what could but did not.”   And that the carnal mind of both the blind believer, as well as the skeptic critic, both attempt to ignore these important inconsistencies (see Inconsistencies Purposely Written Into Body Of Scriptural Text), and attempt to read the scriptures as an historical account, inhibits them from perceiving and understanding the great truths that lie concealed beneath the allegorical texts.   And in the proper application of the scriptures as the Key of Knowledge, the Church Father Origen writes: “But all the narrative portion, relating either to the marriages, or to the begetting of the children, or to battles of different kinds, or to any other histories whatever, what else can they be supposed to be, save the forms and figures of hidden and sacred things? As men, however, make little effort to exercise their intellect, or imagine that they possess knowledge before they really learn, the consequence is that they never begin to have knowledge”. 

What does this mean?   What it means is that “…all the narrative portion [of the scriptures], relating either to the marriages, or to the begetting of the children, or to battles of different kinds, or to any other histories whatever”, do not at all pertain to historical accounts of man’s more distant past — but rather, to the Forces and Laws that are presently working within man’s own mind and being.   Why?   How could Origen who was called the prince of Christian learning second only to the Apostles themselves, state that the historical interpretation of the scriptures is “worthless”?  And that what is presented in the written text as marriages, the begetting of children, and the many various wars and battles are not at all historical — but rather, an allegorical portrayal of the Forces and Laws working within one’s own mind and being?   The answer is this: A truly spiritual people have no need of an historical account in their search for Truth — but rather, their primary concern is to tap into the Inner Source of Knowledge which the disciples portrayed as the True Prophet.    And because man’s pseudo-authorities of this world remain virtually ignorant of the profound reality portrayed in Origen’s statement that “…As men, however, make little effort to exercise their intellect, or imagine that they possess knowledge before they really learn, the consequence is that they never begin to have knowledge” — indicating and confirming the reality that the Source of Knowledge already dwells within man — in his failing to understand the Cosmology of his own mind and being, the vast majority of pseudo-intellectuals merely alienate themselves from the True Source of Knowledge within themselves that remains a perpetual enigma.              

Tuesday, March 05, 2013 China Copies Church & Roman Emperor – Bans Reincarnation In the recent article entitled: China Bans Buddhist Monks In Tibet From Reincarnation, author Chris V. Thangham writes: …

The Rev. Jim Wallis who is Barack Obama’s spiritual adviser (see Jim Wallis), has recently declared victory over Conservative Christianity — and in his publications he takes credit for converting college and university students to his Secular Progressive teachings of the left-wing Gospel.   Supported by George Soros who has been portrayed as the messiah of the atheists, the objective of the liberal and secular progressive churches is to further corrupt Christianity so that it has absolutely nothing in common with the original Gospel teachings.

It has been stated with respect to what is portrayed as The Epistles Of Christ to the Christian Church, that “…it is impossible, if the canons of the Church be followed, for these epistles ever to be read in the public services” (Archbishop Trench, Church of England quoted in Seiss’ The Apocalypse)  Why?   Because the vast majority of Christians have drank the kool-aid of the dogmatic opium of Roman Emperors — and it can be said that the vast majority have been subdued under the influence of Stockholm Syndrome.   Confirming the validity of the Apostle Peter’s long ignored warning that:  “If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in it and overcome, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning. It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than to have known it and then to turn their backs on the sacred command that was passed on to them. Of them the proverbs are true: A dog returns to its vomit, and, A sow that is washed goes back to her wallowing in the mud” (2 Pet 2:20-22 NIV).   Where the modern Church promotes the doctrine that they are saved by Grace regardless of the manner in which they live their lives, Peter not only states that this doctrine is in grave error, but correctly states that: “It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than to have known it and then to turn their backs on the sacred command that was passed on to them.”

Once having become intoxicated by the dogmatic opium of Roman Emperors, the vast majority of Christians to their own spiritual demise can no longer understand this important Gospel teaching and concept.   Why does seemingly Bad Things Happen To Good People?   Why is there evil in the world?   Why is there such inequality with respect to The Conditions Of One’s Birth – Life – And Death?

The Church Father Origen who was known as “the prince of Christian learning” in the third century, second only to the Apostles, writes that “…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“ (see Predestination).  Why?   Why is the conditions of one’s birth not be deemed an accident?   Because there are no accidents as the Atheist and Secular Humanist mindset promotes.    Origen then goes on and writes with respect to each person’s station in life “…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 [person] 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, as stated in the foregoing, each person’s birth into this life is determined by that person’s own past actions — i.e., “…either a vessel unto honor or one unto dishonor”.   Or, as stated by the Apostle Paul: “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows” (Gal 6:7 NIV).

What does this mean?   It confirms the statements in the recent articles Why Are There School Shootings? — and the subsequent allegorical interpretation in the School Shootings Update — that the school shootings were not an accident, and there was a pre-existent cause that was preordained as Conditions Of Birth.   And that for our political and religious leaders to be promoting gun control, instead of addressing the causal factors which has immersed our culture in the diabolical suspension of all morality and spiritual standards, is the abomination of our own ignorance as the kool-aid drinkers of  The Religion Of Roman Emperors. 

The recent Newtown school shooting (see Shooting) of 20 young children and 6 women administrators has provoked many questions as to why such senseless events happen?   If there is a God, then why would God permit such atrocities to snuff out the lives of innocent children?   And while many clergy have provided the typical blind-faith variety of answers — making light of the fact that the Bible states that every event that happens in the life of man has been ordained by the Hand of God.   Yet, these clergy remain without the ability to answer such questions, because of the great void which the dogma of Roman Emperors (see The Religion Of Emperors) has created.  Therefore, in addition to the great question of evil in the world, the Church is without the ability to answer the question: Do We Have Freewill?   Thus, with the anathema and suppression of important biblical teachings, Christians are hopelessly inept to understand the Natural Laws of this world — remaining totally ignorant as to Why Bad Things Happen To Good People — and especially the Conditions Of Birth that each person is born into (see Conditions of Birth – Life – Death).

In a previous article entitled Gov. Rich Snyder Saves The People Of Michigan, I portray anyone who supports the Secular Progressives, the Unions and Democrat Party, as being shackled by the sin of infanticide.    But it is also true that those who escape the fate of being ripped out of the womb in an abortion — and are actually born into this world — must then contend with the Master Abortionist that severs the child from the reality of their soul in the public school environment.   That the lack of School Choice constitutes a mortal sin that causes the spiritual death of young children, is a reality that every American is held accountable for (see God’s Indictment Of The Church).    And it is this reality that the American People who remain virtually ignorant of the workings and movements of the Natural laws in people’s lives, have not yet come to terms with.  

In the same way that 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” (see Conditions of Birth – Life – Death).   And that unbeknown to most people, in the same way that there were souls born into this life to repay karmic debts incurred in their previous lives, there were also souls born into this life expressly to die in the personal sacrifice to stop Hitler.   And once the Laws of this world are understood, it is also true that there are souls being born into this life at the present time to stop the spiritual slaughter of innocent children who are sacrificed on the altar of the public school system which supports the Marxist Secular Progressive agenda (see Jim Wallis – Has This Man Sold Your Soul To The Devil?).   And because spiritually complacent Christians have ignored the mandates and requirements of the Original Teachings of Jesus (see TheLie.org), the Natural Laws can only bring about necessary change by forcing people to react to catastrophes such as the Newtown school shooting.

Man has freewill (see The Great Paradox Of Freewill).   And when mankind refuses to act and accommodate change when it has been presented to him, then the Natural Laws must shove him in the direction he is supposed to go and move in.   Each atrocity and negative action in the life of mankind, is usually followed by a positive action on the part of many people in the opposite direction.   Thus, the Newtown school shootings will force many parents to seek out an alternative school for their children — even to the extent of homeschooling their children.   And in this respect, the children who perished at the hands of a deranged gunman, will have entered this life in a parallel sacrifice to those who were killed in halting such despots as Hitler — except the innocent lives of these children were sacrificed so that other children will escape the spiritual death of the Master Abortionist who destroys the lives of the children in the nations public school system.

While this may seem harsh to the parents of these children, it remains true that many souls enter this world to become a sacrifice to set others free from despots and spiritual death.   Man’s freewill must be preserved so he can learn and evolve through making proper choices with respect to the conditions that each person’s life presents to them.   With good reason the Apostle Paul warns the Christian: “But now I am writing you that you must not associate with anyone who calls himself a brother but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or a slanderer, a drunkard or a swindler. With such a man do not even eat” (1 Cor 5:11 NIV – see All Who Call Upon The Name Of The Lord).  Yet, Christians not only ignore this requirement set forth by Paul and sit at the table with the morally unclean — but they send their children to schools where impressionable young minds are indoctrinated into a spiritually bankrupt mindset and lifestyle.   And thus, in the same way that souls have entered this world to be sacrificed to halt the rule of despots throughout man’s history, souls are entering this world to sacrifice themselves on the alter of the unclean and morally bankrupt public schools, so that other children might escape the spiritual death that is being imposed upon them by a complacent Church which refuses to do what is right.

When Gov. Rick Snyder brought CHOICE to the people of Michigan with the new law which permits a person to work and not be part of the union political machine, he in effect released them from the yoke of bondage that shackles them to a future of…

In a recent forum discussion (see Nazirene Disciple Forum) I was asked the question as to why most people don’t remember their past lives.   My answer that I will present in the below, will be in the form of two different responses to the question?   As a preface to my below explanation, it is important for the reader to be cognizant of the fact that the biblical authors warned that it is virtually impossible for the mind of “natural” organic man to comprehend his own higher soul and spiritual reality — as detailed in the Prologue Of The Key Of Knowledge — and to their own spiritual undoing, Christians perpetually ignore this warning.    Secondly, it is easily demonstrated that while Jesus taught the reality of the pre-existent soul that evolves to perfection over the course of many lifetimes (see Christian Reincarnation), he did not teach reincarnation from an Eastern or New Age perspective.   That a Roman Emperor outlawed the teachings on the pre-existent soul (see Outlawed) — literally forcing the Church to accept his decree — does not in any manner negate the Truth.   But what it does do with respect to the search for Truth within the body of Christian believers, is render them spiritually impotent.   Thirdly, the person you are in this world is not your true self (see The Divine Counterpart) — but rather, an embryonic image of your higher soul-self that has been generated into the body you are presently using as a vehicle in this world with the objective of mental and spiritual developmental evolution — as presented at SoulSelf.org .   Now, in answer to the question?

In further reply I wrote the following addition to the above:

In the Gospel accounts when Jesus healed, he did so by restoring the person to a condition of  “wholeness”.   A holistic healer knows that negative experiences and beliefs create blockages in the body-vessel which inhibit the flow of vital life-force — and the fact that this bio-energy must go someplace, it is lost into nature through the carnal appetites and expressions of the physical self.  What man portrays as carnal sin, is the result of the loss of the inheritance (vital life-force) by the prodigal son who is living a “riotous” lifestyle — primarily, because his immaturity inhibits his using this bio-energy to empower his higher areas and spheres of mind and being.   Thus, because he can’t utilize the bio-energy, it is squandered away on “things of no meaning” and higher significance.  Proper exercise, and holistic healing such as Reiki where blockages of energy are released from the body through deep manipulation, should be an integral part of the process of mental development.   As is such things as yoga which  manipulates  and channels the bio-energy of the body — and many other holistic forms of healing.    

It is easily proven that the original disciples and followers of Jesus were all vegetarian (see TheConsecratedLife.com ). That the mind and thinking of a flesh-eater is incapable of comprehending the higher impressions necessary to understand man’s soul and spiritual reality, was proven by the account of Charles Fillmore (see Fillmore).   The case of Charles Fillmore is important, because as a pillar in the New Thought movement, Fillmore totally rejected the idea that what you eat can affect your thinking and ability to comprehend man’s higher spiritual reality.    On a purely physical level, of course, when you eat dead flesh you not only impact the colon and clog up the body with animal fat and cholesterol, but you also flood the blood stream with toxic death and the fear-impressions of the slaughtered animal.   But since the colon is the organ that manifests the Foundation sphere of the Tree of Life, an impacted colon that is filled with hardened and putrefied dead animal flesh, simply cannot function at the heightened level necessary to access past-life memories.   And this, in conjunction with the blockages of vital life-force throughout the rest of the body — along with the loss of this necessary bio-energy into nature through carnal appetites and expressions — does not permit the seed-essence and/or higher mind to develop — causing the person to remain earth-bound in their thinking.   And since the cultural false-personalities of the person has never lived before, such a person is generally incapable of past-life recall.

I wrote the following letter to Prof. Mark Goodacre on the subject of the claim that Jesus had a wife:

In the pre-Nicene Church (325AD) there existed a body of mature Christians who could easily explain all spiritual concepts presented in the Gospel accounts.   These early Christians never relied upon (blind) faith, because they possessed sure Spiritual Knowledge.  This enlightened core of Spiritual Christians understood that God is the most Rational and Intelligent Force in all of Creation — that there is a reason, a causal factor, and even a higher purpose for all events that transpire in this world — and these Spiritually Mature Christians knew and comprehended all important reasons for every concept set forth in the Gospel teachings.   But this enlightened intellect of the core body of Spiritual Christians presented a serious threat to the political leaders, and they were hunted down as heretics and murdered. 

Recently I became aware of a reply to my article by Jim Loewen on the History News Network entitled George Zimmerman, Travon Martin, And Me, wherein Jim wrote about my article entitled Are Mormons Christian?   In the article I quote Mr. Loewen’s insightful statement: “People have a right to their own opinions, but not to their own facts. Evidence must be located, not created, and opinions not backed by evidence cannot be given much weight” — and in the article itself he writes: At some point, I should relate all this to the study of history as taught in our K-12 schools—on which I’ve spent much of the past twenty years—so let’s do so now. One reason why many Americans are not critical readers and do not insist upon facts stems from their history textbooks. Bear in mind that five-sixths of all Americans never take a history course after leaving high school. High school history textbooks include no footnotes or other system of references.  Moreover, even when issues remain contested, such as when and how did people first get to the Americas, textbooks cite no evidence—in this case, from archaeology, human biology, or anthropology. They just go on blandly relating certainties, even on topics still ruled by uncertainty.

While Mr. Loewen makes this above statement in reference to the history of the Americas, this falsification of facts that Jim makes note of is minuscule in comparison to the text-book censorship and rewriting of history when it comes to the true facts of religious history.   The fact is, that the censorship and misrepresentation of what is presented to the student is so great, that I always assumed that school text-books used a secular version of a Jehovah’s Witness propaganda pamphlet as their source — which to a large degree requires a desire to be duped, and a total suspension of reason and intellect.  

In his article Mr. Loewen takes exception to my statement portraying “Religion As The True System Of Education”, but this is evidently because he never read the link (see Religion As A System Of Education).  Which goes to the core of Jim Loewen’s statement where pseudo-facts are manufactured, in order to support partisan opinion.   At the foregoing link I site the facts of history that one of the primary concerns of pre-Nicene Christianity was “…the heightening and enlargement of human consciousness” — which is of course the objective of true education.   But the crux of the problem is seen in the fact where the meaning of the word religion has become confused with philosophy — and in conjunction with the censorship and suppression of the facts, most people live their whole life not understanding the difference.    Is it religion?  Or philosophy?  Or philosophy cloaked in the garb of Genuine Religion?   Which of course goes to the very core of Jim Loewen’s statement that “People have a right to their own opinions, but not to their own facts”.

While philosophy is based upon opinion, belief and the assumption of unproven ideas, religion is the lifestyle that one lives in order to prove one’s philosophy.   And the fact that few people are even aware that the very purpose of religion is to not only prove the validity of one’s beliefs, but to learn the indisputable Truth of all Truths, is due to both the promotion of opinion as facts, and the suppression of the Truth in support of sectarian and secular propaganda.   

Its too bad that Jim Loewen didn’t take the time to read the article Ann Coulter – The Fine Print – If You Can Find A Better Deal, Take It!   If he had, he would have gotten an eye-full of the mass censorship and manufacture of pseudo-facts that has gone into the foundation of modern Christianity.   In fact, using the Bible, the article demonstrates that every dogmatic belief associated with modern Christianity is rejected and even condemned as apostasy by the New Testament authors.   Therefore, it is virtually impossible for the modern believer to actually practice and live their religion while holding firm to the dogma of the Church — which dogma is built upon manufactured pseudo-facts intended to support man-made Church dogmatic philosophy — dogma that was forced upon a religion by a series of ruthless emperors who murdered whoever disagreed with them, and destroyed all evidence which contradicted their decrees.  In the words of Prof. Elaine Pagles:  “It is the winners who write history – their way. No wonder, then, that the viewpoint of the successful majority has dominated all traditional accounts of the origin of Christianity… It suggests that these religious debates – questions of the nature of God, or of Christ – simultaneously bear social and political implications that are crucial to the development of Christianity as an institutional religion. In simplest terms, ideas which bear implications contrary to that development come to be labeled as heresy; ideas which implicitly support it become orthodox” (see Pagles, The Gnostic Gospels).

I did not write that religious-oriented philosophy which is little more than speculation and belief, is “…The True System Of Education”  — and in confusing what is portrayed through the use of pseudo-facts as religion, with genuine religion, Jim Loewen has permitted himself to be duped by the very opinion-based propaganda that he writes about in his book, Lies My Teacher Told Me.   The religion that I was making reference to, is the system of mental and spiritual development that was outlawed and condemned as heresy by the institutionalized Church which does more to inhibit the seekers progress, than to support the original Gospel objectives.

In his article Jim Loewen writes: Elsewhere on his site, he states that he holds to “Religion As The True System Of Education”—again at odds with education based on fact — and if Jim had read at the heading The Heightening And Expansion Of Mind, he would have encountered my example of faith-based philosophy vs Spiritual Religion where I write: …the original teachings of Jesus was not the blind faith and belief in a prophet or god-man — but rather, the means to transform all Christian disciples of TheWay into prophets and mystics as demonstrated in the words: “…From this perspective mysticism played a vital part in the early church. Early Christianity was a religion of the spirit that expressed itself in the heightening and enlargement of human consciousness”.   But, we must then pose the question: Just what is a “…religion of the spirit”?    Like an astronaut who travels beyond the limits of the earth’s atmosphere into outer space, a spiritual religion prepares the seeker/disciple to transcend the barrier of this physical world, and enter into what the biblical authors portrayed as the Kingdom of God which Jesus taught was within us.   But to accomplish this spiritual transcendence, you had to first prepare the physical body to make it an environment that would permit “…the heightening and enlargement of human consciousness” to be brought about — and this requires a great amount of effort and preparation.     And in the same way that charlatans peddle get-rich schemes which rob the people of their wealth and prosperity, wolves in sheep’s attire peddled short-cut schemes — and it was these counterfeit shepherds who seduced the naive into handing over their money and support so they could live lucratively off the collection plate.  The spiritual Christians who followed in TheWay and prepared themselves to transcend the natural physical limitations of the body, possessed the Divine Knowledge of the Kingdom which they had succeeded in entering.   And the Spiritual Christians were opposed by those who portrayed themselves as Orthodox — who more often than not were charlatans who for the sake of mammon and the political power of this world, ardently opposed the Spiritual Christians because they represented a direct threat to their base of money and political power. 

How can I portray the position of Jim Loewen who took exception to my statement respecting Spiritual Religion being “…The True System Of Education”???  When Christopher Columbus returned from his journey to the New World, he witnessed to facts that could only be confirmed by those who endeavored to make the journey themselves.   As a Spiritual Explorer and Shepherd, all I can do is demonstrate that the vast majority of people dwell under the grave misconception that they know about the founding and objectives of Christianity, based upon pseudo-facts that were manufactured in order to support the man-made dogmatic doctrines of the 4th century Church of Rome.  And that by the power of the sword of Constantine, the True Spiritual Christians were hunted down and murdered as heretics, because they refused to accept the religion of the emperor.   Further, it is easily proven that the New Testament itself was corrupted to make it support the dogma of pagan Rome (see www.BibleCorruption.com ).   Yet, based upon manufactured pseudo-facts, the vast majority of people remain clueless as the true purpose and spiritual objectives of the Gospel teachings.  Which also means that modern Christian dogma is not representative of religion at all — bur rather, secular philosophy imposed upon the Church by a series of Roman Emperors who dictated to the believers what was acceptable to believe.  

In this life I was in my younger years the product of the thinking which was derived from the very same text-books that Jim Loewen makes note of.   I believed that Jesus was God.   That the Church was the expression of the Gospel teachings.  And I had no reason to question what I believed.   In time, though, I found myself doing exactly what Jim Loewen suggests — i.e., “…Evidence must be located, not created, and opinions not backed by evidence cannot be given much weight”.   When I was exposed to the Near Death Experience accounts of the Being of Light (see http://BeingOfLight.com ), I asked myself the question: Why does a person have to physically die, to prove the validity of these accounts?   And thus, like Columbus, I set out to make the journey in search of that place which I have come to call The Realm Of Souls.   In preparation for the journey, I had to follow Jim’s advice and recognize that “…opinions not backed by evidence cannot be given much weight”.  And after successfully completing the journey many times over the course of years, I basically had to rid myself of virtually everything that I thought I knew based upon the pseudo-facts of our history books.   Resulting in the fact that, everything that I have learned is the result of either (1) tapping into the previous lifetimes my soul has lived as; (2) learned directly from my higher soul-self (see http://SoulSelf.org ); or, (3) learned directly from what the earliest disciples of Jesus portrayed as The True Prophet.   Ultimately, I proved the validity of Jim Loewen’s words!  And the extent of my massive writings is for the sole purpose of clearing out the grave misconceptions based upon the pseudo-facts propagated in our text and reference books, and convey to the seeker of True Facts what they must do to make the Journey in TheWay — and Prove the Truth for themselves.   In the same way that I proved Jim Loewen correct, I also proved the words of Thomas Paine correct when he stated: “Such is the irresistible nature of truth that all it asks, and all it wants, is the liberty of appearing”.  

In defense of Jim Loewen, his subject-matter interests are not the same as mine — and thus, he applied his formula for finding truth in a totally different direction than I did.   But the facts are that both of us applied the same formula which he writes is necessary to find the truth.   And while in this life Jim is a couple of years older than I am, let me go on record as stating that Jim has only touched the surface in his research, and if he begins to connect with his true self — i.e., his higher soul-self (see http://SoulSelf.org ) — he will learn more in an instant, than he has over the course of his entire life.  And while I can’t prove this to Jim unless he is willing to make the Journey in TheWay — what I am writing will eventually be confirmed when he passes from this life and is no longer subject to the limitations of the physical body.   And thus, in these very words the difference between religious philosophy and genuine Spiritual Religion is presented — in that, while religious philosophy is speculation and (blind) belief pertaining to one’s faith in the unknown, Genuine Spiritual Religion is the mindset and lifestyle necessary to prove the Truth.
