I recently came across the blog of Laura Wood which she has named The Thinking Housewife. One of her many articles which caught my attention was The Pythagorean Women. Knowing that I could provide the insight into what I portray as the Esoteric Feminine Mystique that our modern culture remains totally ignorant of today, I decided to send off the below email to Laura. As stated, that our culture attempts to recreate woman into a surrogate man — with the almost total loss of her true feminine strengths and powers of intellect and spiritual purpose — is perhaps the greatest folly of mankind today. The plight of modern man because of his suppression of the Feminine-Intuitive, has intellectually flat-lined him in the abyss of abject self-ignorance. And this is demonstrated in my assertion that our modern institutions forces women as surrogate-men, into a type of mental-burka that has been the detriment to all of mankind as a whole — as stated in my following paragraph copied from my affidavit provided for those who oppose wearing a seat belt (see Affidavit):
The proper development of the mind to eclipse what can be called organic human limitations, is dependent upon the interaction of the linear and intuitive spheres of mind. But when the intuitive perception is inhibited, and development is suppressed, even the linear is flat-lined from any development beyond what is portrayed in the Gospels as carnal and restricted consciousness. The linear mind of man remains limited in its development, because the intuitive remains infantile and shackled in a captive environment where it is only permitted to express itself in linear terms. While the inward looking intuitive has the potential to access higher consciousness and states of mind and being, it is unable to arise to its intended potential because of the shackles placed upon it by a thoroughly domineering and controlling linear culture. Like a woman who in many Islamic cultures are forced to dwell in an imprisoned world beneath a Burka — not permitted to openly express herself except when accompanied by a male relative — totally deprived of the ability to openly speak on her own behalf — the natural expression of the intuitive mind has been so impeded by our linear-driven culture, that it has remained undeveloped and unreliable as a resource (see Opening And Unlocking the Mind).
The following is my communication with Laura Wood and her Thinking Housewife blog:
Greetings, and Shalom Laura Wood:
I just came across your blog entitled The Thinking Housewife ( http://ThinkingHouseWife.com ), and I find myself in agreement with much of what you write. So, I am putting your web address across my Nazirene Disciple Forum in the hope that some of the membership will read some of the concepts in your articles and discuss them on the forum.
In your article The Pythagorean Women you write: Granted, much of what is known about their community is uncertain. The sect observed a code of secrecy. But, it appears to have embodied some of the most enlightened and wholesome ideas about the role of women in Western history. Pythagoras opened his learned society to women, who were free to philosophize and pursue arcane studies. At the same time, Pythagoras did not believe in masculinized women; he perceived the difference in male and female functions. If you will accept it, I know quite a bit about the secret knowledge of the Pythagorean spiritual community — and if I might point out that much of this secret knowledge parallels that of the inner core of the original Ebionite Nazirene disciples of Jesus with respect to women — and like the historical man Jesus, what Pythagoras was seeking was Wholeness as portrayed at the subheading The Esoteric Feminine Mystique.
Quoting from the subheading, The Intuitive Mind Vs The Linear Rational: In the introduction to the book Secrets of Mary Magdalene, Prof. Elain Pageles writes and quotes the Gospel of Philip: Simultaneously, the Gospel of Philip celebrates Mary Magdalene as manifesting the divine spirit, which this gospel calls the “virgin who came down” from heaven. When Christians spoke of Jesus “born from a virgin,” this author agrees—but refuses to take it literally. So some people, he says, take this literally to mean that Jesus’ mother became pregnant apart from any man, apart from sexual intercourse. But this, he says, is the “faith of fools” who fail to comprehend spiritual matters (although, as we note, it can be seen in the birth narratives offered in the New Testament gospels of Matthew and Luke). Instead, continues the Gospel of Philip, Jesus was born physically, just as all humans, as the son of biological parents. The difference, says the author of this gospel, that he was also “born again” in baptism–born spiritually to become the son of the Father above, and of the heavenly Mother, the Holy Spirit. That one of the primary objectives of this life is to bring about and achieve the next stage of birth — a non-physical birth which is allegorically portrayed as a Virgin Birth — should be of primary importance to all people.
In the same way that Peter as representing the (male) linear-rational spheres of mind states of the intuitive visions and wisdom of Mary Magdalene: “…These are certainly strange ideas”, it is a fact that it is the lopsided development of what Einstein portrayed as the linear-rational servant that inhibits the development of the intuitive-gift — i.e., as seen in Einstein’s statement that “The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education.” Without the balanced development of the intuitive, the linear-rational which only senses outwardly, arrives as a point where it becomes what can be portrayed as flat-lined — which in turn inhibits the further development of the linear rational servant from itself maturing beyond organic limitations. And herein lies the great obstacle to human development that linear-intellectuals don’t at all understand — i.e., the reality that the linear programming of the mind which is the agenda of our educational systems — including the reading of books and traditional study — only serves to inhibit the development of the intuitive spheres of mind — and it is the lack of balance between the inward looking intuitive and the outward looking linear-rational that inhibits the development of the mind beyond a certain very shallow organic physical level of maturity. Further, what we are presented with are a number of paradoxes that have confronted man since he first stepped foot on the earth. Thus, these proverbial questions must be confronted: Is the mind of a child empty? Or, does a great source of knowledge already exist within the mind of the child that must be tapped into? Do you instruct a child through rote programming in the manner of our educational systems today? Or do you guide the child into an environment of self-discovery?
The problem is seen in the fact that the linear-rational servant can only look outwardly — and not only remains totally ignorant of an inner reality that it is blind to — but it demands that all of mankind ignore and even reject the higher causal reality that can only be sensed and understood through the development of the intuitive centers of mind. Like the tip of the proverbial iceberg, what is observed protruding out of the water is very small in relation to the immense body of ice that is beyond man’s normal scope of vision lying beneath the water line. And because our culture and linear learning environment actually inhibits the development of the intuitive, it remains atrophied and latently embryonic and immature. This is seen in the fact that when the leaders of the Jews (Pharisees) asked Jesus when the Kingdom of God would come upon the earth in the manner that they believed it would, he told them that it would never come upon the earth so as to be seen with their eyes (that look outwardly), because the Kingdom already exists within them (see http://GateOfEden.com ) — and it is accessed through the development of the intuitive spheres of mind that are positioned to look inwardly — which then must be balanced with the outward looking rational linear.
In your article you write: The Pythagorean woman may have achieved the true golden mean. She was learned. She was respected for her intellectual potential. But, she never sacrificed for these her fidelity to husband and home. To a Pythagorean, mind is not separate from soul. Our powers of reason are related to our efforts toward virtue. Here is one of the greatest insights of Greek thought. Here is the kernel of Western progress. The true and the good and the beautiful are one. I hope the above clarifies for you the reason why the Pythagorean spiritual communities “…respected [woman] for her intellectual potential”.
I am presently putting together my presentation at the upcoming Conference For Consciousness And Human Evolution (see http://www.tcche.org/ ) — which will be entitled “Know Thyself – The Higher Reality Of The Soul And The Cosmology Of Mind And Being” — which presentation I am compiling on the website The Holographic Divine Pattern. Pythagoras, as with all truly enlightened men of Wisdom and Spiritual Knowledge, understood the important role that women and the development of the Intuitive Spheres of Mind plays in the seeking the Higher Destiny of Mankind. With respect to your statement “…The sect observed a code of secrecy” — it wasn’t so much that they concealed knowledge from those outside the community — but rather, as stated by the biblical authors, it remains virtually impossible for men of a “natural” organic consciousness to comprehend the higher reality of the soul and the mysteries of the Kingdom (see Mysteries). With respect to your statement: “…Pythagoras did not believe in masculinized women” — the downfall of our modern culture is presented at the subheading The Opening And Unlocking Of The Mind, which demonstrates the importance of the dynamic balance that must be achieved between the minds of men and woman — and the cultural attempt to recast women as surrogate men.
Hope the above provides you some insight into the women of Pythagoras and other Highly Advanced Spiritual Communities.

Larry Stone – The Folly Of Your Noah Article ... July 2, 2014
The below is a letter that I sent to World Net Daily (WND) in reply to their article on the movie Noah. In view of the fact that WND would reject the truth and the facts with respect to the issue of the wholesale Corruption of the Church, faith-based believers can find the facts in the below reply which I did send Larry Stone c/o WND.
Shalom Larry Stone:
After reading your article Noah Revives Ancient Enemy Of Christianity, the only statement in your article that has any factual truth is the statement:“In the second-century, Irenaeus called the Gospel of Judas ‘fictitious history'”. Why is this the lone factual statement in your article? Because neither the Gospel of Judas, or any of the other Gospels, are representative of historical accounts. In the same way that the Pharisees were condemned by Jesus as “blind guides” who were leading the people in the wrong direction, because the Church in like manner threw away the Key of Knowledge (see http://KeyOfKnowledge.org ), the blind leaders of the Church have spiritually disenfranchised the congregation of faith-based believers to the degree that it can be accurately said that they dwell in a self-imposed Spiritual Diaspora. The Gospels — as with all scriptures — are composed with a quasi-historical cloak, so that they will be somewhat relevant to the mindset and thinking of entry-level faith-based Christians who are yet too spiritually immature to understand the higher reality of the soul and the Mysteries of the Kingdom (see Opening The Eyes Of The Heart). Quoting from the foregoing article:
In the original biblical Greek the knowledge of man was portrayed differently than the Divine Manna of the Kingdom that could ONLY be imparted to man directly from the Logos — i.e., this Heavenly Spiritual Knowledge was called Gnosis. Quoting from the Mystery Of The Gospel: The early Christian Valentinius quoted Paul’s Epistle to the Ephesians when he made reference to Gnosis Kardias — or, the enlightened eyes of the heart. “I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints” (Eph 1:18). And that Paul wanted very much to speak about the Mystery of the Gospel to the Ephesians, but could not, is the reason he portrayed himself as an ambassador in bonds: “And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak” (see Eph 6:19-20). And how did a seeker/disciple obtain these enlightened eyes of the heart? Very briefly, by fulfilling the role of a virgin who awaits the Lord with the oil of purification — and by becoming the “good ground” that permits the necessary expansion of the facilities of mind to be brought about, which enables the seeker/disciple to be taught by the Indwelling Logos/Son of God/True Prophet. (see True Prophet)
In your condition of abject ignorance, the Spiritual Knowledge that you portray as the enemy of Christianity, is the very Heavenly Divine Manna that nourishes the Christian seeking Spiritual Maturity and entrance into the Inner Kingdom (see The Third Fatal Mistake). The Greek word Gnosis is indicative of that knowledge that cannot be taught by man — neither can it be found in any book or writing of man — it has absolutely nothing to do with any historical event or account — and is that Spiritual Knowledge or Divine Manna that can only be imparted to those who have become the “good ground” in the parable of the Sower And The Seed — and are therefore able to receive this Heavenly Knowledge directly from the Logos. And what the scriptures are, when the Key of Knowledge is properly applied and turned within, is the knowledge and instruction necessary to open the “narrow strait gate” within your own mind and being, and gain entrance to the Inner Kingdom (see The Third Fatal Mistake).
When the Gospel teaches to “remove the beam from your own eye, before attempting to remove the splinter from that of your brothers and sisters”, it is making reference to the fact that blind guides who have not themselves gained entrance to the Inner Kingdom and learned directly from the Logos/Son of God/True Prophet, should not be teaching others what they have failed to accomplish and experience within themselves. Again quoting from :
It is man-made Church dogma that Jesus nailed the Law to the cross — dogma that is simply not supported by the Gospels. And in accord with this man-made dogma, not only are Christians exempt from observing the Royal Law of God — but they dwell under the delusion that they have completed all Gospel requirements by merely saying their Jesus-prayer — after which they believe they have acquired eternal salvation apart from their actions thereafter. And this dogma they embrace, even though it is totally rejected in the New Testament as seen in TheLie.org : “For it is impossible to restore again to repentance those who …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 for these apostates to the Gospel to even imagine that they can understand the true meaning of the scriptures, is the second greatest accomplishment of that Power of the Left Hand which they call Satan. The greatest accomplishment being the seduction of those who don’t believe that the god of this world even exists.
In what has historically been portrayed as the authentic ending of the Gospel of Mark it reads: “This age of lawlessness and unbelieving lies under the say of Satan, who will not allow what lies under the unclean spirits to understand the truth and power of God” Which is why modern Christians are blind to the spiritual meaning of the scriptures. The Gospel of Mark then continues and declares: “I was delivered to death on behalf of sinners, that they might return to the truth and sin no more, that they might inherit that glory of righteousness which is spiritual and imperishable in heaven” (Moffatt, quoting Gospel Of Mark in Codex W; also quoted by St. Jerome as being the authrntic ending of the Gospel of Mark.
The original Gospel message that became corrupted by the Gentile Church was not about a dispensation for the believer’s sin — but rather, the spiritual transformation of the faith-based believer into a spiritually mature disciple of TheWay. Thus, Paul commands: “Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature” (Col 3:5 NIV). If the congregation of believers could simply have faith, without living a Consecrated Life set apart from the thinking and lifestyle of the people of this world, then Paul would not have warned the believers of the simple faith that: “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). That genuine Christians were to be set apart from the ways and thinking of this world can be seen in Paul’s admonition: “But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner — not even to eat with such a person. For what have I to do with judging those also who are outside? Do you not judge those who are inside? But those who are outside God judges. Therefore ‘put away from yourselves the evil person'” (1 Cor 5:11-13 NKJ).
That the modern Church has been led by blind guides who have promoted the Synagogue of Satan, and have crucified the Son of God afresh, is the true reality of the modern Church.

John 4:18-24 – The Divine Role Of Woman ̵ ... July 2, 2014
The Question posed to me that is relevant to all women: Hello, i was reading through john 4:18-24 and I don’t understand what Jesus is saying on line 22 about the Jews. I see what Jesus is saying about praying and worshiping the spirit of god not just on that mountain or in Jerusalem but always being in a conscious connection with god wherever we are… but what does this mean for that woman who has five husbands and her current husband that is not her husband? I think that maybe the knowledge Jesus is sharing women is a way of conveying that despite her unofficial marriages to 5 other men, the woman and husband can still redeem themselves if they follow in the way of Jesus..
The Answer To The Sexual Dilemma:
We are the prodigal sons of our Heavenly Father. Other than some of my own, perhaps the best quote on the process of the Journey in TheWay is that out of the Zohar: “All souls are subject to the trials of transmigration; and men do not know the designs of the Most High with regard to them… The souls must re-enter the absolute substance whence they have emerged. But to accomplish this end they must develop all the perfections, the germ of which is planted in them; and if they have not fulfilled this condition during one life, they must commence another, a third, and so forth, until they have acquired the condition which fits them for reunion with God”.
In reality, it is impossible to develop all the perfections that will permit our Union with the Logos of God in one life — and when the Cosmology of Mind is rightly understood, the journey from the Alpha of Ignorance to the Omega of Enlightened Light and Being requires countless lifetimes of developing Wholeness, Completion and Perfection. In the Edgar Cayce readings it was noted that the soul who lived as the historical man Jesus required 30 lifetimes to arrive at that point where he could achieve the Final State of Birth — but from my perspective, that number is allegorical — and it required more than that. But he accomplished what he did by making each life a success story — i.e., understanding that each life has a higher purpose, and living one’s highest ideal in pursuit of that purpose.
One of the gravest mistakes of the modern Church is to use Jesus as an excuse for their own carnal excess and the belief that they are somehow exempt from the consequences of their own actions — and one of the gravest mistakes of the New Age is to imagine that they can put off from one life to another. A common New Age rhetorical reply is that they will deal with certain inconvenient issues in some future life rather than do the work, or make the sacrifice in the present. The problem with this mindset is that when we attempt to put off till tomorrow what confronts or is presented to us in the present, the Laws will no longer present us with the opportunity at that level, and it will become much more difficult for us to return to that point where we are again even presented with the opportunity which we previously failed to take advantage of. The fact of life is presented in the Gospel of the Nazirenes: “Don’t put off from day to day, and from cycle to cycle and æon to æon, in the belief, that when you return to this world you will succeed in gaining the mysteries , and entering into the kingdom of light. For you don’t know when the number of perfected souls will be filled up, and then the gates of the kingdom of light will be shut, and from hence none will be able to come in thereby, nor will any go forth. Strive that you may enter while the call is made, until the number of perfected souls will be sealed and complete, and the door is shut.”
The term “Strive that you may enter while the call is made…” is making reference to the parable of The Call — wherein, those who were invited to the Wedding Feast — indicating those who had achieved a level of spiritual maturity — but failed to come to TheCall — were destroyed — signifying that the Laws invoked greater hardship upon them who are presented with an opportunity, but they instead sought the entanglements of the ways of this world. Again quoting the parable of the Talents out of the Nazirene Gospels in preference to the corrupted version in the traditional scriptures: “And that servant which knew his lord’s will and did not prepare himself, nor followed his will, will be beaten with many stripes. But he that did not know, and did commit things worthy of stripes, will be beaten with few stripes. For to whomsoever much is given, of him will they much require, and to whom they commit little, of him they will require the less. For they who know the Godhead, and have found the way of life, the mysteries of light, and then have fallen into sin, shall be punished with greater chastisement than they who have not known the way of life. Such shall return when their cycle is completed, and to them will be given space to consider, and amend their lives, and learning the mysteries, enter into the kingdom of light.” The key statement is “…For they who know the Godhead, and have found the way of life, the mysteries of light, and then have fallen into sin, shall be punished with greater chastisement than they who have not known the way of life.” Which means that the New Age rhetoric that the person will work on an aspect of self in some future life because it is not convenient for them at this time, will find that not only will they no longer have the opportunity in the future, but that it will become far more difficult to once again return to that point where they even had the opportunity.
In the original uncorrupted Gospels there were may statements pertaining to seeking the knowledge of the Mysteries of Light — i.e., “…For they who know the Godhead, and have found the way of life, the mysteries of light” — and this can be clarified by quoting the Pistis Sophia: “Do not cease seeking day or night, and do not let yourselves relax until you have found all the Mysteries of the Kingdom of Light, which will purify you and make you into Pure Light and lead you into the Kingdom of Light.” And on the transformation of the physical body that permits the seeker to receive and comprehend the Higher Knowledge, the Pistis Sophia states: “Do not desist from seeking by day and by night, until you find the purifying mysteries of the light, which refine the body of matter and make it a pure light very refined.” And just as important is the statement: “But if he shall have sinned once, twice, or thrice, they shall reject that soul, sending it back again into the world according to the form of the sins that it may have committed; the form whereof I will declare unto you hereafter. But verily, verily I say unto you, that even the righteous man that hath committed no sin at all cannot be brought into the Kingdom of Light, forasmuch the seal of the mysteries of that kingdom is not found upon him. Once for all, I say unto you, a soul cannot be brought into the kingdom, if it be without the mysteries of the Kingdom of the Light.” And that this transformation of the self that brings about the necessary subsequent stages of birth can only be accomplished while in the physical body-vessel as stated in the Gospel of Philip: “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.” Which means that absolutely no progress can be made when your time in the body has expired (physically died).
Sexual pleasure and procreation is only one aspect of the purpose of the sex-centers of man and woman. In fact, procreation can be portrayed as a holographic allegorical pattern of higher reality — portraying to the seeker the reality that only in the joining of the opposites (male/female, heaven/earth, spiritual/physical, positive/negative) can the third-force be conceived and evolved. Again, holographically, in the same way that marriage does not make the two “one flesh” from the perspective that their male/female physical bodies are somehow altered — but rather, (holographically) the oneness is found in the genetics of their offspring (third-force). The true merger of husband and wife into “one flesh” must be understood on the level of mind — wherein, the third-force that makes the male/female “one flesh” is best portrayed as the Morphic Field that surrounds and immersed the husband and wife within their own atmosphere-like Etheric Field — which is explored beginning at the subheading Gender-Blindness And The Process Of Birth. Why is this even important? The outer columns of the Tree of Life that form the Tree of Duality (aka Tree Of Knowledge Of Good And Evil) are male and female in relation to each other. Therefore, the separate impressions and their corresponding divided male and female thought patterns and frequencies, are in fact the forbidden fruit of the Tree of Duality. And it is in the joining and raising up of the male/female spheres of the Tree of Duality within the man and woman, that manifests and provides access to the fruit of the Tree of Life — the eater thereof inherits Eternal Life.
Therefore, what exactly is a Morphic Field? On the reality of what is portrayed as a Morphic Field, quoting from the excerpt of the book Active Consciousness – Awakening The Power Within, by Amy L. Lansky, it is stated that: “Biologist Rupert Sheldrake’s theory of morphic resonance also depends upon similarity in vibration. Members of the same species, being ‘on the same wavelength,’ are able to tap into information that pertains uniquely to them. And while members of an entire species might be able to tune into a fairly broad spectrum of frequencies (think of Carl Jung’s notion of the collective unconscious that humans supposedly tap into, smaller, more tightly connected groups — such as members of the same family or loving couples — resonate in more focused zones of vibration; they have access to their own “private frequency.’ In fact, Sheldrake goes even further and suggests that morphic fields can explain how human memory operates. Instead of being stored in our brains, he suggests that memories are stored in the morphic field. Our brains then pick them up via resonance, like radios tuning to their own private stations.” Physical sex creates a permanent connection between a man and woman with the objective of the creation of an morphic-embryo that can be evolved by the two (husband and wife) into a higher state of birth. And this is demonstrated in the Gospel of Thomas in the statement: They said to him, “Shall we then, as children, enter the kingdom?” Jesus said to them, “When you make the two one, and when you make the inside like the outside and the outside like the inside, and the above like the below, and when you make the male and the female one and the same, so that the male not be male nor the female female”. By creating that morphic field where the third-force is evolved and balanced, the higher soul-self that is asexual can manifest in the physical — thereby enabling the man and woman and their higher soul-selves to evolve towards the next level of spiritual birth — with the ultimate objective of attaining Oneness in the Final Birth which manifests the Logos in the Union.
The soul or our higher True-Self is neither male or female because the polarities of male/female exist in a united reality. The soul itself IS the third-force balance between the physical and spiritual natures — which are portrayed as the two sons in the parable of the prodigal son — the younger son venturing into this, the Far Country — with the elder son remaining in the fields of the Kingdom of God. From the perspective of the higher soul-self, the prodigal son is feminine in relation to the indwelling spiritual nature which is male. The soul is a Being of Light ( http://BeingOfLight.com ) that is neither male nor female, because it exists as the Morphic Field that is the third-force balance of the physical (female) and spiritual (male) natures. That there are males in this world is only because the holographic nature of the Divine Pattern which is replicated into all of Creation must be maintained. But in this case, a man is only male in his relationship to woman. This can be understood in the feminine genetics of “XX” — which can be broken down to chromosomes from the father and separate chromosomes from the mother. Yet, even though the 23 chromosomes were derived from the father, they are only male in relation to the 23 chromosomes from the mother. On a physical level of being, while the man is male in relation to woman, both are holographically feminine in relation to the inner spiritual nature that remains attached to the Kingdom — with the third-force balance observed in the Light and reality of the higher soul-self.
In order to evolve, these male/female polarities must be separated so they can interact and evolve. In order for the soul or soul-self to evolve, there had to be a division between the spiritual and physical natures as portrayed in the parable of the two sons. Holographically, in order for the prodigal son to evolve, there had to be the division of male and female. Thus, before conception can even take place in the physical, both the sperm and ovum must divide and split so the opposites can join and create an embryo which evolves into a fetus with the objective of initiating birth into the next level of being — which in this case is physical existence. But because the process of birth must be accomplished incrementally and in stages, at each level of birth you are holographically born as an ovum or sperm on that level of being. And this (holographic Divine Pattern) reality of man and woman is explored in the subheading Cosmic Ovum And Sperm. While on a physical level only one ovum and sperm can unite to conceive a human embryo, this is not the case on the next level (human reality). Quoting the above: “…think of Carl Jung’s notion of the collective unconscious that humans supposedly tap into, smaller, more tightly connected groups“ — and on our level, whoever you have sex with remains connected to you in a quasi-morphic field — creating an exchange of impressions which we often receive as thoughts.
Woman is structured to raise up the vital life-force passed to her during sex, and return it back to her husband at a higher level — which is why man is polarized positive in the genitals, while woman is polarized positive at the breasts. It has been noted that woman alone maintains enlarged breasts which is not the case in the animal kingdom where the primary function of the breasts is the nursing of offspring. Unlike the animal kingdom, the breasts of woman remain enlarged in order to serve the higher purpose of the Marriage — which Divine Union can only be manifest in the kingdom of mankind. In the parable, the prodigal son is portrayed as loosing his (divine) inheritance by living a “riotous” lifestyle — which in the loss of his inheritance, places him under the control of the Citizen of the Far Country. What we portray as nature-man squanders away his inheritance (vital life-force) — a process with Gurdjieff portrays nature-man as a type of herd-beast that feeds nature through the loss of his bio-energy. If man is celibate, then his level of bio-energy dwindles — i.e., you loose what you don’t use. Also, as explored in The Way Of The Monk, there is a holographic division of heavenly/spiritual and physical/earthly in the upper three spiritual centers (aka chakras) and the lower three earthly centers within man — with the third-force in the Center. So, if you negate the lower, then you can’t bring about the necessary merger of male/female opposites within self — and therefore you can’t manifest an evolved third-force in the Center — creating an imbalanced condition which we portray as chakra-gazing and head-sex. Again, quoting the Nazirene Gospel: And one of the disciples asked him, “How shall a man enter into the Kingdom?” And he answered and said, “If you don’t make below as the above, and the left as the right, and the behind as the before, entering into the center and passing into the spirit, you will not enter into the kingdom of God.” — with the objective being that the Kingdom can only be entered through the CENTER — which is dependent upon the evolved balance of the three upper spiritual (male) centers and the three lower (female) spiritual centers with the evolution of the Center. Which means that by denying the lower centers through celibacy, those centers fail to develop.
When rightly understood, the organs of the body itself is the epitome of duality working in harmonic conjunction with each other — i.e., the two lungs, the two hemispheres of the brain, the two sides of the heart, the two ovaries or testis, the two eyes, ears, nostrils, arms, legs, kidneys and most other organs. Taking the heart as an example, if the two sides which each contain an upper and lower chamber fail to function together in harmony, then the heart and the body becomes dysfunctional — with physical death a possibility. Holographically, man and woman are opposite polarities that are the two sides of the whole — and each has an upper (spiritual/heavenly) chamber, and a lower (earthly) chamber. When they function in harmony and oneness, the vital life-force is passed from the lower chamber of the male into the lower nature of the female, is raised up into the upper chamber of the female where she is polarized positive at the breasts, and passed back to the husband at that (upper) level where he is polarized negative — and this higher raised up bio-energy then has the potential to be raised up and join the upper and lower within the two — evolving the Center where Wholeness can be matured and manifested. This, of course, is the design of Nature and the Laws Thereof — and in the joining of the two, the Morphic-Field of the union of the two evolves the embryo which permits the next stage of birth to be brought about at that higher level.
Man, though, must have freewill — and in his pursuit of the pleasures and appetites of sexual interaction apart from the higher purpose of sex as a uniting force that bring wholeness to the male/female embryo in the morphic-field, nature man uses the sex organs strictly for pleasure and the feeding of his carnal appetites. With the result of squandering away his vital life-force into the feeding of nature, with him as a type of herd-beast of the god of this world. In the same way that woman craves the exchange of vital life-force from the man, the man desires the return of that vital life-force from woman — which he is deprived of, because this can only be accomplished by a wife who is totally bonded and at-one with her husband. The heart has a common beat in which the four chambers perform unique tasks that manifest wholeness. In order to function above the physical level, the man and woman who are Husband and Wife must have a common beat that moves, sustains and raises up the bio-energy to make the evolved Morphic-Field connect them to the higher reality of their souls. Nature man is incapable of this common beat and exchange of bio-energy and impressions at a higher level that unites the left/right and higher/lower into Oneness. So nature-man goes through life in a spiritual void — fixated on the breasts of woman — desiring the bio-energy which he cannot receive from just any woman. And because he can’t get this energy from one woman, he spends his existence being attracted to the breast of many woman — never receiving what he craves and needs to achieve wholeness. And this attraction to women’s breasts is why Jesus said that a man who looks on a woman with lust, has already committed adultery with her in his heart. And why the woman who was caught in adultery was told to go and sin no more. When rightly understood, Jesus was of course expressing the reality of the Natural Laws of God — and these Laws are not negated because of one’s dogmatic beliefs.
As a woman, the question becomes what you bring to the table of a marriage. If you have already given yourself to other men, then it becomes very difficult for you to raise up the bio-energy of one man and return it back to him as per the Divine Design and the Laws of Creation. Instead of reflecting and completing the impressions of your husband through the merger and raising up with your own impressions, you are reflecting the impressions of many men who are neither your own, nor can you affect in a higher positive manner (see The Merger Of Opposites Into One, and The Holographic Pattern Of Sex). Man and woman each emit opposite polarity impressions (see Impressions As Food) — and it is the interaction and merger of male/female impressions that nourish the mind in its embryonic stages of development within the marriage and merger of opposites. But if the woman is a part of a morphic-field with many men, then it becomes very difficult to near impossible for her to fulfill her divine role and reflect and raise up the impressions of her husband. In like manner, a man who has a harem of women, has too much bio-energy bleeding off into nature. And this was why the woman at the well was portrayed as having five husband and none of her own — and therefore she could not return with Her Husband and receive the Living Waters of the Spirit.
There is no doubt that we live in defiled times — and few of us have escaped the cesspool that we have been plunged into. But there is the Law of Grace — and the fact that if we see the error of our ways, and strive to make change in first ourselves, and then in the outer world, then a certain degree of healing can take place within us. A young girl who is seduced by our culture into having an abortion, can only repent from murdering the unborn, by assisting other young girls into not making the same mistake. In the same way, a woman who has been seduced by our culture into having a multitude of sex partners, can begin the healing process by seeing the error of her ways — and conveying to other young girls not to permit themselves to be seduced and entrapped. The god of this world which is portrayed as the Citizen of the Far Country, wants young women to have a multitude of sexual partners, so that she is unable to fulfill her Divine Purpose as a Wife — and therefore, bleed the vital life-force off into nature — i.e., serving in the role of a herd-beast. But the Law of Grace can only be invoked by repentance — and repentance must be founded upon the making of amends. And this can only be accomplished by positively affecting the lives of others.

O’Reilly vs Duck Dynasty July 2, 2014
While I can’t say that Bill O’Reilly’s recent coverage of the Duck Dynasty fiasco was negative, he raised a number of points that failed to put the issues in their proper perspective. Generally, Phil Robertson was portrayed as a Fundamentalist who promoted outdated biblical morality. Yet, if it is true that the Gospels were written by Godly Enlightened men, can their Wisdom be outdated? Can Truth be outdated? Twice Mr. O’Reilly mentioned the condemnation of homosexuality as stemming from the Old Testament — and yet, it was the New Testament — 1st Corinthians — that Phil Robertson was in fact quoting in the statement: “Don’t be deceived. Neither the adulterers, the idolaters, the male prostitutes, the homosexual offenders, the greedy, the drunkards, the slanderers, the swindlers — they won’t inherit the kingdom of God. … Don’t deceive yourself. It’s not right.”
O’Reilly then seemed to find fault with Phil Robertson’s statements, and quoted Luke 6:37: “Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven”. But in not understanding the biblical mandate of discernment vs judgement, the whole issue of sin became clouded. Was Phil Robertson condemning? Or was he expressing the need for discernment — sharing important facts about the very purpose and objective of the life that all of mankind is presently living? Thus, with respect to the necessity of proper discernment, the Apostle Paul also wrote in 1st Corinthians: “… I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner — not even to eat with such a person. For what have I to do with judging those also who are outside? Do you not judge those who are inside? But those who are outside God judges. Therefore ‘put away from yourselves the evil person’.” If we are not to keep company with anyone “…who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner”, then the ability to discern what the Gospels portray as sin, is of the utmost importance.
When it is recognized that the statement in Corinthians quoted by Phil Robertson was as much a polemic against heterosexual infidelity as it was homosexuality, a wise man would want to know: Why does the scriptures impose such strict biblical-based morality upon mankind? To the degree that adultery and sex outside of marriage are condemned — to the degree that men were told by Jesus that they have already committed adultery if they look upon another woman with lust in their heart? Further, to the woman caught in adultery, Jesus warned: “…go and sin no more'” (John 8:2-11 NKJ). Why? Perhaps the answer lies with what biblical experts confirmed in their excavation of the Dead Sea Scrolls — i.e., that post-Nicene Christianity has virtually nothing in common with the actual first century teachings of Jesus (see The First Fatal Mistake) — which was a religion of transformation where the lost prodigal son gained entrance to the Inner Kingdom (see The Third Fatal Mistake). And in all instances where Jesus was asked how to enter the Kingdom, his answer was virtually the same — i.e., in the Second Epistle of Clement: “Let us expect, therefore, hour by hour, the kingdom of God in love and righteousness, since we know not the day of the appearing of God. For the Lord Himself, being asked by one when His kingdom would come, replied, ‘When two shall be one, that which is without as that which is within, and the male with the female, neither male nor female’”
How could this be? The question should be posed? When Paul stated that the followers of Jesus were exempt from the (outward ritual) works of the Law of Moses, this is true. But Paul also stated that the Law of Moses was an allegorical portrayal of the Royal Law that must be fulfilled within the life of the sincere believer. And it was the proper application of theKey Of Knowledge that would open the inner “narrow strait gate” to the Kingdom (see The Key Of Knowledge And The Cosmology Of Mind). Thus, Jesus commanded those who would be his followers: “And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?” (Luke 6:46 KJV). And this is why Jesus warned those who would claim to believe in his teachings: “And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it” (Matt 10:38-39 NKJ). That the sincere believers in the Gospel teachings were to be in the world and not of it — and to travail in TheWay and transform their lives and become what is portrayed in the previous link as the Final Living Temple — and to have no part in the sin of this world — is very clearly stated in the words of Paul who warned: “For it is impossible to restore again to repentance those who …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 – see TheLie.org). If adultery is sin as Jesus stated, can those who willfully commit adultery “…after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a fearful prospect of judgment“. And Christians are warned by the Apostle Paul to have nothing to do with the “sexually immoral, …put away from yourselves the evil person.” What Phil Robertson was correctly pointing out is the fact that we presently dwell in a culture that is based upon sexual immorality.
In light of the above profound warning to complacent believers who call upon the Lord with their lips, while failing to live in accord with his Commandments, a sincere seeker would want to know: How is that condition achieved where “…the male with the female, neither male nor female’”??? And, it must be noted, that unless this condition where the duality of male and female is overcome and wholeness is achieved, the Epistle of Clement which directly quotes the teachings of Jesus that were evidently removed from the Gospels (seeBibleCorruption.com), conveys to the believer that the Kingdom cannot come outwardly where carnal men look for it — because it is within you (Luke 17:20-21). Thus, where Jesus taught that one must achieve the next stage of birth to enter the Kingdom, this overcoming of the duality of male and female has little to do with the civil ordained unions of man and woman in this world — but rather, the subsequent stages of Marriage and secondary birth that modern man does not at all understand the higher reality of. But even more revealing is the similar teaching that has been preserved in the recently recovered Gospel of Thomas where the disciples as Jesus: “Shall we then, as children, enter the kingdom?” Wherein Jesus teaches when the Kingdom will come (within you): “When you make the two one, and when you make the inside like the outside and the outside like the inside, and the above like the below, and when you make the male and the female one and the same, so that the male not be male nor the female female…” Which provokes the question: how can “you make the male and the female one and the same, so that the male not be male nor the female female…”? The answer is found in what Jesus taught as Wholeness — and the fact that man and woman are half of each other, and must not only be reunited as ONE — but a Divine Marriage must be instituted and evolved where the two become “one flesh” (Matt 19:5; Mark 10:8) — physically, mentally and spiritually. And when rightly understood, these verses are not making reference to procreation — but rather, the total integration of male/female on all levels of their being in Absolute Oneness — allegorically reuniting Adam and Eve within the construct of the Consecrated Divine Marriage. Which means that Marriage itself is a Religious Sacrament — and the vast majority of marriages ordained by the authorities of this world, are little more than stated licensed sex and cohabitation.
Discernment was of paramount importance to the original disciples of Jesus — and this is especially seen in the statement to the person who Jesus healed: “…sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee” (John 5:14 KJV). And what this means is that those who sin — especially after coming to the knowledge of the Gospel message — inherit a fate even worse than before they were healed from their sin. To the degree that Paul warned the congregation of believers: , “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows” (Gal 6:7 NIV). The Question is: How does a man reap what he has sown?
In the coverage of Phil Robertson Bill O’Reilly portrayed himself as a kind of authority who wrote a book on the life of Jesus. Taking into account the absolute need for discernment, the proper question that should be posed would be parallel to that in John 9 where it was asked in a discerning manner: “Teacher, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born homosexual?” And while not righly understood today, this question is well represented in what can be portrayed at the subheading, The Biblical Foundational Mindset. Did the Jews in the first century believe in the pre-existent soul? As stated in The Hastings-Scribner Dictionary Of The Bible (New York, 1903. Bk 4, p. 63) “To affirm that Jews in Christ’s time did not believe in pre-existence is simply incorrect”. Which means that the discernment raised by Phil Robertson with respect to the plight of the homosexual is of paramount importance for all people today to understand.
When rightly understood, Phil Robertson wasn’t judging and condemning anyone — as suggested by Bill O’Reilly and many of his critics. What Phil Robertson was in fact doing was warning others about the pitfalls of certain behavior which the scriptures portray as immoral and ungodly. In the words of the Apostle Paul: “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows” (Gal 6:7 NIV) — which can also be portrayed in the words: “Teacher, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born homosexual?” And this biblically based reality is explored in the subheading The Conditions Of One’s Birth. And if we ask the question as to why this biblical teaching is not understood today? The answer is, because the modern Church has shackled itself in the abyss of a Spiritual Diaspora of ignorance, because of its perpetuation of The Religion Of Roman Emperors.
When Bill O’Reilly first announced that he was writing a book, The Killing Of Jesus, I hoped that he would open the Pandora’s Box of the Christian world and reveal the original Gospel teachings that were suppressed by the secular politics of the Roman Church. The original disciples who walked and talked with the historical man Jesus daily, did not believe that he was God — but very much a true holy man who fulfilled the Royal Law of God within himself, and became At-One with the Indwelling Logos. Quoting from The Foundational Paradigm Of Mind And Being: Jesus was a man who became the Anointed (Messiah/Christ) at his baptism in the Jordan (see The Ten Words), the Church corrupted the very words of God spoken to mankind — because they were too carnal to comprehend the original teachings respecting the man Jesus who was in“…supernatural union of a man and God… In their eyes, Jesus of Nazareth was a mere mortal, the legitimate son of Joseph and Mary: but he was the best and wisest of the human race, selected as the worthy instrument to restore upon earth the worship of the true and supreme Deity. When he was baptized in the Jordan, the Christ, the first of the aeons, the Son of God himself, descended on Jesus in the form of a dove, to inhabit his mind, and direct his actions during the allotted period of his ministry” (Gibbon; The Decline & Fall of the Roman Empire, V.4, P.366). Or that Jesus was the example and pattern for all of mankind because in the original teachings of the Gospel, Jesus was portrayed as being “…justified by fulfilling the Law. He was the Christ of God, since not one of the rest of mankind had observed the Law completely. Had any one else fulfilled the commandments of the Law, he would have been the Christ.” Hence “when [believers] thus fulfill the law, they are able to become Christs, for they assert that our Lord Himself was a man in like sense with all humanity.” (Hippolytus, Refut. Omn. Haer. vii. 34). That the majority of Gentile Christians were too carnal in their thinking, mindset and lifestyle to understand this essential original teaching of the Gospel, is because they could not conceive of the reality that the mind of man is segmented into levels of higher and lower fragmented consciousness that alienates man not only from the inner Kingdom, but the higher reality of his own soul — and ultimately God.
In 2nd Corinthians Paul confirms the reality that there exists deeper levels of consciousness within the mind of man, and relates the account of being taken up in spirit to the Heavenly Kingdom where he witnessed mysteries which are inconceivable to the faith-based congregation of believers. Quoting the article Opening The Eyes Of The Heart: If it is true that there are higher realities of being that are totally inconceivable to the mind of the undeveloped faith-based believer (see Mysteries Of The Gospel) — and by virtue of their immaturity, the biblical authors were powerless to explain in detail many of the important Gospel teachings and concepts — then the spiritually mature author’s of the scriptures who do Know of these higher realities, remain virtually powerless to do anything more than to provide the people with a list of do’s and don’ts, so that the immature Christians will be in a position where they are then better able to evolve to a mature understanding and comprehension of the teachings of Jesus and TheWay. To totally ignore these do’s and don’ts, without knowing the consequence of one’s choices and actions, is paramount to walking out onto a freeway blindfolded.
What this means is that Phil Robertson was promoting Gospel-discernment when he expressed the importance of maintaining biblical morality. In fact, if Phil Robertson was of a more mature spiritual understanding, he would have explained about The Esoteric Reality Of Virginity And Sex — and he would have enlightened the people about The Holographic Pattern Of Sex that is the basis of the biblical prohibitions and morality that the people in our modern culture find outdated. And while it is true that as a faith-based Christian that Phil Robertson does not possess this higher understanding that has been suppressed by the Church of Rome, it is also true that Phil Robertson is wise and insightful enough not to violate the do’s and don’ts set forth in the Gospels.

Opening The Eyes Of The Heart July 1, 2014
The vast majority of faith-based Christians, as well as the opponents of the Church, will immediately reject what is presented on the websites associated with this Blog as “far out” — and even the ravings of a nut! But is this true? Or, have these people ignored the warning of the Gospel that Spiritual Knowledge belongs only to those who are themselves Spiritual? I recently answered this question in a discussion on the Nazirene Ebionite Disciple Forum:
The Knowing and enlightened biblical authors warned that you will not believe or accept a single thing that I will write and say to you (see Mystery Of The Gospel)! The Lord himself warned that you would cast me out of your Churches. In like manner, it has been predicted that your clergy and authorities will condemn me as a heretic. And even suggest that killing me would be doing a good service. Why? Because we are all born ignorant and unknowing — and in your present spiritually immature condition, the biblical authors have warned that you will reject the higher reality of your own soul and the mysteries of the Kingdom as utter “foolishness”! And as the Apostle stated, so long as you remain in this immature and elementary condition — adhering to the dogma and traditions of carnal men — you will not be able to bring about the necessary state of spiritual maturity — and therefore, you will be unable to fulfill the intended purpose and objectives of the Gospel message and teachings!What are the Original Gospel objectives? As the lost prodigal sons, the Gospel Message was given unto man in order to empower him — enabling him to evolve to a state of spiritual maturity — which self-empowerment would provide the means for the lost prodigal son to escape the clutches of what is portrayed as the Citizen of this, the Far Country — thereby enabling the prodigal son to break free of the shackles of human suffering and spiritual ignorance, and return to the Edenic Kingdom of Origination from which he originally emerged (see GateOfEden.com).That the Good News of the Gospel is merely the beginning, is seen in Paul’s statement that after personally teaching the congregation at Corinth — stating that “I always thank God for you because of his grace given you in Christ Jesus. For in him you have been enriched in every way — in all your speaking and in all your knowledge — because our testimony about Christ was confirmed in you. Therefore you do not lack any spiritual gift as you eagerly wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed” (1 Cor 1:4-7 NIV). Which means that even though Paul taught and conveyed to the congregation of Christians all knowledge concerning what Paul portrayed as the “testimony of Christ” — to the degree that he attested to the fact that they “…do not lack any spiritual gift” — it is also clear that they were somehow awaiting for the “…Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed”. Which invokes the question: If they had already been taught the Good News in the form of what Paul portrayed as the “testimony of Christ” — and were not lacking in “…any spiritual gift” — then what, exactly, were they still lacking?In the second chapter of the very same Epistle Paul warns these believers who he himself had personally given all knowledge and testimony of Christ: “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). Paul then goes on and warns these believers of a natural mind who were baptized and dedicated to Christ: “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). Thus, this congregation of confirmed believers who Paul personally taught the “testimony of Christ” and the Good News, could only be taught what Paul portrayed as the entry-level doctrine of Jesus Christ and him crucified (1 Cor 2:2), because they were not yet spiritual men — but rather, they were men of flesh and still very much “babes in Christ”. Paul then explains that: “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).What should be troubling to the modern believer is that Paul openly admits that the baptized and confirmed Christians at Corinth — people who had accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior and received the gifts of the laying on of hands and speaking in tongues — people who were not taught by preachers and priests, but the Apostle himself — were not yet able to understand and comprehend what Paul referred to as the Mysteries of the Gospel of God. Moreover, Paul went as far as to state to the body of believers that if he was to even attempt to convey to them the true spiritual meaning of the Gospel, that they would utterly reject what he stated as “foolishness”. Why? Paul states that the Christians who he had personally taught and instructed into the Good News of the Gospel, were too carnal to comprehend the higher reality of the soul and the Mysteries of the Kingdom of God. Thus, Paul stated: “And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ. I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able. For ye are yet carnal…” (1 Cor 3:1-3 KJV).If it is true that Paul could not speak openly about the true meaning of the Gospel to the Christian who he had himself instructed because of their carnal condition of mind and being — to the degree that these same Christians would reject what an enlightened Paul knew as “foolishness” from their carnal perspective of self and life — would it be any less true that modern carnal Christians would be any different than those who Paul personally taught? Could modern Christians who are carnal in their thinking, mindset and lifestyle, comprehend what the very people who Paul himself taught were incapable of understanding?
To ignore the above fact drawn straight from the pages of the New Testament, is delusional self-deception on the part of the Christian world. And based upon the spiritual ignorance of counterfeit shepherds such as Martin Luther who attempted to promote the idea that only the literal written word was valid, let me present another quotation out of one of the websites associated with this forum:
From a biblical perspective: When Jesus taught the people using the enigma of parables that allegorically concealed what he called the Sacred Secrets of the Kingdom, his disciples who had received all truths revealed to them plainly, asked him: Why do you teach them with parables? What they were asking Jesus is why he did not speak plainly to them? And thus, Jesus answered his disciples and explained:“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 are “without”, are those who dwell in what Jesus called the “outer darkness” of mind and being (see Outer Darkness) — and because they dwell “without [in the] outer darkness”, they are incapable of perceiving and understanding anything beyond the base vibratory frequencies of the earth. The disciples, on the other hand, had abandoned the ways of this world, and were able to spiritually receive the Knowledge of the Sacred Secrets of the Kingdom. Instead of the word “mystery”, the NIV Bible translates this word the “secret” of the Kingdom of God — i.e., “The secret of the kingdom of God has been given to you. But to those on the outside everything is said in parables so that, they may be ever seeing but never perceiving, and ever hearing but never understanding; otherwise they might turn and be forgiven!'” (Mark 4:11-12 NIV).
What does it mean to “turn”? From the perspective of the prodigal son, it is to turn away from the Far Country, and return to the Edenic Kingdom of Origination (see GateOfEden.com). In the Gospel accounts, particular attention and importance is placed upon Children, who are often referred to as the “little ones”. It is warned that if we do not “turn about”, and become as little children, we cannot enter into the kingdom of heaven (Mt 18:3; 19:14). In Mark 10:24 Jesus refers to his disciples as children when he explains: “Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God” (NIV). The Gospel of Thomas saying 22 has the disciples asking Jesus: “Shall we then, as children, enter the kingdom?” To which Jesus responded:“When you make the two one, and when you make the inside like the outside and the outside like the inside, and the above like the below, and when you make the male and the female one and the same, so that the male not be male nor the female female…”. Therefore, unless you understand and bring about the merger and marriage of opposites within you, it will remain impossible for you to bring about the next stage of birth that brings about the necessary Oneness with your higher soul-self — and ultimately with the Indwelling Logos and God.
Jesus did not — and could not — speak openly to those who were portrayed as being “without [in the] outer darkness”. Why? Because, the “outer darkness” is this three-dimensional realm that can be thought of as a mental-womb intended to develop and bring about the next stage in the birth process — and therefore, it would have been impossible for them to comprehend anything beyond the most mundane of earthly perceptions of self and life. In the same way that we were initially conceived within the womb of our physical mothers — where we were supplied all the nourishment necessary to evolve through the fetal stages and our birth into this world — when the womb of our mother was no longer sufficient for our progress beyond the initial stages of development, we were then born into what can be portrayed as the next-level of womb where our development can continue. Therefore, one of the conceptual-realities that Paul had great difficulty in conveying to the entry-level Christians, is the reality that this world is the womb of mother-earth — that each of us can be portrayed as a Cosmic Ovum Or Sperm — and that if we understand the Natural Laws of Creation and the purpose of this world, that our earthly-mother will supply all that we need to achieve the next stage of the four-fold process of birth — the final stage of which is allegorically portrayed in the Gospel accounts of the crucifixion. Because we lack the necessary mental-development to comprehend this higher reality, it was therefore impossible for the biblical authors to write even the next level above elementary truths literally.
When rightly understood it can be said that the religious world is presently drowning in intellectual and spiritual milk. And with this fact in mind, what I am writing is not intended for milk-sucking babes in Christ who dismiss and reject becoming the “good ground” in the parable of the Sower and the Seed — of which the Gospel account of Jesus warns that if you fail to become the “good ground” and understand the meaning of this parable, that you will not understand ANYTHING: “And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?” (Mark 4:13 KJV). And to put this great biblical truth in the more modern language of the New Living Translation: “But if you can’t understand this story, how will you understand all the others I am going to tell?” You can’t! If you fail to understand the meaning of this parable, then you can never comprehend a single truth of any great importance. Moreover, I confirm this well defined biblical statement with respect to all of man’s endeavors in his quest to know himself and his true role in the vision of Creation. It makes no difference if you are a man of faith, science, or philosophy, unless you understand the meaning of this parable in relation to your own life, then you can never know anything of a genuine value and significance.
Quoting from The Key Of Knowledge:If it is true that there are higher realities of being that are totally inconceivable to the mind of the undeveloped faith-based believer (see Mysteries Of The Gospel) — and by virtue of their immaturity, the biblical authors were powerless to explain in detail many of the important Gospel teachings and concepts — then the spiritually mature author’s of the scriptures who do Know of these higher realities, remain virtually powerless to do anything more than to provide the people with a list of do’s and don’ts, so that the immature Christians will be in a position where they are then better able to evolve to a mature understanding and comprehension of the teachings of Jesus and TheWay. To totally ignore these do’s and don’ts, without knowing the consequence of one’s choices and actions, is paramount to walking out onto a freeway blindfolded.
I always found it truly amazing that students of the scriptures could read the words of Paul where he states that the mind of the Christians who he had himself taught, would reject the truths pertaining to the higher reality of the soul and the Mysteries of the Kingdom as utter “foolishness” — portraying himself as an “ambassador in bonds” who was unable to speak plainly — and yet the implications of these words when read by the majority of readers, remain ignored to their own detriment. Further, from this perspective, the best that Paul could do for those who he portrayed as entry-level Christians who were “babes in Christ”, was to provide them a series of do’s and don’ts that would assist them in evolving through the stages of spiritual immaturity that made it impossible for them to comprehend the True Gospel Meaning and Objectives.
It is Church dogma that Jesus nailed the Law to the cross — dogma that is simply not supported by the Gospels. And in accord with this man-made dogma, not only are Christians exempt from observing the Royal Law of God — but they dwell under the delusion that they have completed all Gospel requirements by merely saying their Jesus-prayer — after which they believe they have acquired eternal salvation apart from their actions thereafter. And this dogma they embrace, even though it is totally rejected in the New Testament as seen in TheLie.org : “For it is impossible to restore again to repentance those who …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 for these apostates to the Gospel to even imagine that they can understand the true meaning of the scriptures, is the second greatest accomplishment of that Power of the Left Hand which they call Satan. The greatest accomplishment being the seduction of those who don’t believe that the god of this world even exists.
In the original biblical Greek the knowledge of man was portrayed differently than the Divine Manna of the Kingdom that could ONLY be imparted to man directly from the Logos — i.e., this Heavenly Spiritual Knowledge was called Gnosis. Quoting from the Mystery Of The Gospel: The early Christian Valentinius quoted Paul’s Epistle to the Ephesians when he made reference to Gnosis Kardias — or, the enlightened eyes of the heart. “I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints” (Eph 1:18). And that Paul wanted very much to speak about the Mystery of the Gospel to the Ephesians, but could not, is the reason he portrayed himself as an ambassador in bonds: “And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak” (see Eph 6:19-20). And how did a seeker/disciple obtain these enlightened eyes of the heart? Very briefly, by fulfilling the role of a virgin who awaits the Lord with the oil of purification — and by becoming the “good ground” that permits the necessary expansion of the facilities of mind to be brought about, which enables the seeker/disciple to be taught by the Indwelling Logos/Son of God/True Prophet. And in the same way that in the parable of the ten virgins it was said to those who had failed to prepair themselves with the oil of purification that “Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you” — even though they believed and had called upon the Lord and was awaiting his coming, this reality of the believer who has failed to prepare himself is futher explored in the early Christian scripture known as the Shepherd of Hermas.
In the introduction of the early Christian writing known as the Shepard of Hermas, it is written: “The Pastor of Hermas was one of the most popular books, if not the most popular book, in the Christian Church during the second, third, and fourth centuries… In ancient times two opinions prevailed in regard to the authorship. The most widely spread was, that the Pastor of Hermas was the production of the Hermas mentioned in the Epistle to the Romans. Origen states this opinion distinctly, and it is repeated by Eusebius and Jerome”. If, then, it is true that the Pastor of Hermas was one of the most important scriptural authorities over the first four centuries, then we can use it in our endeavor to better understand the essence of early Christian thought. What the Shepherd of Hermas has to say is very important to us today, because it represents the scriptural tradition that was taught directly to the faithful flock by the Apostles of Christ. Thus, on the nature of scripture, in the Shepherd we find: “I am senseless, sir, say I, and do not understand these parables. For how she can crush out, and on the other hand save, I do not perceive. Listen, says he. Those who have never searched for the truth, nor investigated the nature of the Divinity, but have simply believed, when they devote themselves to and become mixed up with business, and wealth, and heathen friendships, and many other actions of this world, do not perceive the parables of Divinity; for their minds are darkened by these actions, and they are corrupted and become dried up. Even as beautiful vines, when they are neglected, are withered up by thorns and divers plants, so men who have believed, and have afterwards fallen away into many of those actions above mentioned, go astray in their minds, and lose all understanding in regard to righteousness; for if they hear of righteousness, their minds are occupied with their business, and they give no heed at all. Those, on the other hand, who have the fear of God, and search after Godhead and truth, and have their hearts turned to the Lord, quickly perceive and understand what is said to them, because they have the fear of the Lord in them. For where the Lord dwells, there is much understanding. Cleave, then, to the Lord, and you will understand and perceive all things”.
The message that is very clear from this early Christian writing is that it is impossible to mature spiritually, while attempting to divide oneself between the two worlds. In our present day culture we are living proof as to the validity of the wisdom that is portrayed in this writing — i.e., one cannot perceive the true meaning of the parables and the inner significance of the historical narrative of the scriptures, while one devotes their lives to their “business, and wealth, and heathen friendships, and many other actions of this world” — which would include the whole array of addictions provided by all the many leisure’s and entertainments that captivate and control our every-day lives. Further, do we truly do unto others as we would want others to do unto us — i.e., do we send our children (the souls who were placed in our care) off to government secularized schools to become imbued with the thinking, mindset and lifestyle of the heathen culture in which we presently live?
In the Shepherd of Hermas a reference is made to a tower, of which it is written: “And the tower, I asked, what does it mean? This tower, he replied, is the Church. And these virgins, who are they? They are Holy Spirits, and men cannot otherwise be found in the kingdom of God unless these have put their clothing upon them: for if you receive the name only, and do not receive from them the clothing, they are of no advantage to you. For these virgins are the powers of the Son of God. If you bear His name but possess not His power, it will be in vain that you bear His name”. In understanding what is written, it is most important for us to be aware of the continual message found in the words: “If you bear His name but possess not His power, it will be in vain that you bear His name”. Thus, if you call yourselves Christian, but fail to purify and develop your mind and body from the defilements of this world — and do not possess the true Knowledge of the Spiritual Christ — and have not yourselves inherited the same higher powers of mind that the Son of God promised all his followers would possess — then “it will be in vain that you bear His name”. And again, this is demonstrated in the words spoken to those who believed upon the coming of the Lord, and even called upon his name, but had failed to bring with them the oil of purification, where it was stated: “Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you”
The problem that Paul is unsuccessfully attempting to convey to the reader is this: What was revealed to the True believers and disciples of Jesus and TheWay at the beginning of our Common Era, was truly the most Black Swan Event every to transpire. Organic man — whether he is a believer or unbeliever — whether he is a scholar or an acclaimed intellectual genus by the standards of our culture — those who are limited to man’s organic senses and reasoning, are simply not prepared to even envision man’s own higher soul and spiritual reality. And in view of the fact that Jesus himself made reference to bringing about subsequent stages of birth, the vast majority of mankind who have chosen to ignore these crucial words of Jesus, and have not brought about these subsequent stages of birth, can no more envision their own higher soul and spiritual reality, than a sperm or ovum can envision the life of a child beyond the limitations of the womb where the development of a fetus takes place.
Unlike the flock of believers at Corinth to whom the Epistle is written, the modern Christian was not taught directly by Paul — and the very fact that the Christian world remains divided by an uncountable number of factions and manmade doctrines of belief based upon organic carnal reasoning, is proof of the deficiency of the modern dogma and doctrines that are promoted by the Churches. In understanding man’s human and often complacent nature, Paul even went as far to say that anyone who promotes a faction — i.e., a doctrine of belief — is a sinner who has been turned out of TheWay (see No Sects). Why? Because the primary objective of the teachings of Jesus and TheWay was to bring about the necessary subsequent stages of birth and transformation of the disciple/seeker — a process of transformation that would enable them to Know All things, and find the Gospel being fulfilled within themselves in a manner that could not be understood by organic man. Therefore, according to Paul, those who cling to manmade doctrines of belief, have already been turned out of TheWay.
It is important to recognize that the believers at Corinth who Paul stated were too carnal to understand the higher reality of the soul and the Mysteries of the Kingdom, existed at a time when these Gospel teachings were still in a pure and undefiled state. This was in a timeframe that could truly be classified as “BC” — i.e., Before Constantine and the Pagan Church of Rome that threw away and lost the spiritual essence of the teachings of TheWay. Therefore it must be acknowledged that whatever the modern believer views as the Gospel requirements with respect to faith, saying the proper prayer accepting the Lord as their personal savior, or any other such requirement, no modern believer can even suggest that Paul did not know the Gospel requirements when he personally taught and baptized the Corinth flock of believers. Yet, Paul then goes on and warns these believers of a yet untransformed “natural” mind who were committed and dedicated to Christ: “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). Thus, these believers who were taught personally by Paul — in a time of greater spiritual purity, B.C. — could only be taught the doctrine of Jesus Christ and him crucified (1 Cor 2:2), because they were not yet spiritual men — but rather, they were men of flesh and still very much “babes in Christ”. Paul then explains that: “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).
What should be troubling to the modern believer is that Paul openly admits that the baptized and confirmed Christians at Corinth — people who had accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior and received the gifts of the laying on of hands and speaking in tongues — people who were not taught by preachers and priests, but the Apostle himself — were not yet able to understand and comprehend what Paul referred to as the Mysteries of the Gospel of God. When it is recognized that Paul confessed that if he attempted to convey to this congregation of believers the true spiritual meaning of the allegorical scriptures, or the esoteric knowledge which is preparatory to comprehending what Paul portrays as the higher reality of the soul and the Mysteries of the Kingdom — that these same believers would condemn and reject these higher spiritual concepts as “foolishness” — then only a fool would claim that they know what is spiritually true and false by virtue of their study of the written words of the scriptures.
Speaking of the Disciples and what they experienced in order to learn and know the Truth that other men were blind to, Paul writes that they were “caught up into Paradise and heard inexpressible words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter” (2 Cor 12:4-5 NKJ). Why? Every sincere Christian and intelligent reader of the Gospels must ask the questions: Why can’t the experience of being brought up into Paradise be expressed in words? And perhaps even more important is the question as to why “…it is not lawful for a man to utter” what a Disciple who enters the Kingdom experiences? Moreover, if this witness to the inconceivable higher realities of the Kingdom is true, then why can’t Christians gain access to the same spiritual experience of entering the Kingdom as Jesus’ disciples did? When Jesus stated that those who walk in TheWay will find revealed to them the “Truth that sets them free”, he was not making reference to the “milk” fed to those Christians who Paul portrayed as “babes in Christ” — but rather, the mature disciples who had brought about the necessary transformation of their lower animal earthly nature, brought about the subsequent stages of birth, and emerging out of what Jesus portrayed as the“outer darkness” of mind and being, was able to begin to receive the revelation of Gnosis directly from the Logos of God — which is incomprehensible to the organic mind of man, even when they are committed and baptized believers who Paul states, had received the initial gifts of the spirit. These are serious questions, that can only be addressed by very serious seekers who truly seek not only to Know the Lord, but to Know anything beyond the temporal mundane of this world which fades like the cycle of leaves falling off a tree before the winter.
The most profound statement which is all but ignored by seekers today, is found in the Epistle of Peter And James where it is written: “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.” Why would it be stated that, if the esoteric wisdom and knowledge of the teachings of Jesus and TheWay were to be lost, that it “…will remain even for those who really seek the truth, always to wander in error”??? And while many people think they know, in truth these words represent a reality that they have yet to come to terms with: “If any one imagines that he knows something, he does not yet know as he ought to know” (1 Cor 8:2 RSV).
When Paul warns the baptized and committed Christians at Corinth that, because they were of an organic and “natural” mind, they were yet too carnal in their understanding to comprehend the spiritual meaning of the Gospel — which is often referred to as the Mysteries of the Kingdom of God — he conveyed to them the reality that they would judge and even condemn this higher reality of the Spirit as absolute “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). Thus, it is imperative to ask the question: What is the “natural man”? The condition of mankind that Paul is making reference to, would just as well be portrayed as “organic” — or, of the physical body. The “natural man” , is the “organic” human being. And what Paul warns is that the mere act of turning to belief in Jesus does not in any manner enable the believer to understand the true Gospel Teachings that can only be grasped by those who have undergone the necessary spiritual transformation of mind and being of truly walking in TheWay.
It is said that human consciousness is like the tip of an iceberg — and in the same way that only a very small tip which is supported by an immense foundation of ice protrudes above the water where it can be seen — organic man who Paul portrays as of a natural mind, can only utilize a very small portion of his potential of mind. Like an ovum that is released into a woman’s womb, without the proper and balanced fertilization, and the necessary environment that initiated growth and development, the mind of organic man remains earthbound in it’s thinking — simply because those higher areas of mind that are not necessary to the support of the physical body and the culture of this world, do not develop! Because these areas of mind are rarely to ever used, they not only fail to develop, but they remain mentally atrophied. Therefore, it is not a question of how smart a person is from the perspective of man’s way of measuring intelligence. But rather, it is a reality that if these higher areas of mind that do not correspond to the vibration of the earth are not properly stimulated and developed in the proper environment that initiates growth and maturation, then the very spheres of mind required to contemplate and understand anything beyond the physical and mundane, simply fail to develop. And when Paul states that the wisdom of this world will come to naught (1 Cor 2:6-8), it is because of these organic limitations that inhibit all of mankind who are of a “natural mind”, from understanding anything beyond the forms of this physical world. And as I will demonstrate in the below, even the most brilliant of secular intellectuals do not in any manner possess any real understanding of even the forms they see, as they look out into the world in which they presently dwell. In fact, you could enroll in all the most esteemed colleges and universities that man has created — you could endlessly study the volumes of books composed and written by men considered wise throughout the ages — and your wisdom and knowledge would pale in comparison to the Disciples of Jesus and the earliest of Spiritual Christians who were sincere Disciples of TheWay.
The average modern believer who reads these words would probably reply: If this is true, then the Disciples of Jesus were set apart from the rest of mankind, and we cannot expect to know what they knew. Yet, nothing could be further from the truth! The flock of Christian believers have in fact been robbed of their inheritance — like the lost prodigal son — by embracing the consciousness of the earth over the spiritual — which Paul portrayed as the way of the god of this world — which Jesus portrayed as the Citizen of the Far Country. That early Christians, other than the disciples themselves, also inherited the promise of the teachings of Jesus and TheWay, is demonstrated in the writings of the first century elder Ignatius, who personally knew both Paul and the other Disciples. And in his Epistle to the Trallaus he speaks of the Mysteries of the Gospel and the Kingdom in the same exact manner that Paul does, and writes: “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”. The only way that Ignatius could have written these words, was if he, himself, understood what was beyond the comprehension of the organic mind of the believers of the simple faith. And while he states that he understood what was incomprehensible to the organic mind of man, he also confesses that though he is aware of the mysteries, he is not yet “by any means perfect, nor am I such a disciple as Paul or Peter”.
Thus, Paul writes to the congregation at Corinth — who being babes in Christ, only knew Jesus and him crucified — where he wrote: “We speak wisdom, however, among them that are fullgrown: yet a wisdom not of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who are coming to nought” (1 Cor 2:6 ASV). In other translations the word fullgrown, is translated either mature or perfect. Yet, in not even understanding the primary objectives of the Gospel, modern believers study and learn the wisdom of this world and the opinions of men, failing to move on to maturity and learn directly from God — i.e., “It is written in the Prophets: ‘They will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who listens to the Father and learns from him comes to me” (John 6:45 NIV). Not in belief, doctrine, or to a manmade church — but rather, the objective of the teachings of TheWay is to enter in at the inner “narrow gate”, and learn directly from God in the Kingdom. And to accomplish this, it is necessary to disregard that which we see without our physical eyes and understanding, and seek and learn via our spiritual eyes that is able to perceive beyond the limits of this world — i.e., “While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal” (2 Cor 4:18 KJV).
The folly of the Christian world is seen in the fact that they learn from the teachers of this world who proclaim that there is no unseen — and only what is seen with one’s physical eyes is valid. Christians send their children to learn about what is temporal, while alienating themselves from what is eternal. Christians flock to churches which are temporal and built with the hands of men, while rejecting the Temple of their soul which is Eternal and Sustaining.
With respect to the witness of Ignatius: What preacher of the Gospel today would stand before his congregation and state to the people in their pews, that if he was to reveal the true teachings of the New Covenant — the Mysteries of the Gospel of God — he would “inflict injury on you who are babes” in Christ? What teaching of the Lord could a present-day preacher of the gospel reveal that the congregation of believers are not “able to receive their weighty import”? If Ignatius or the other early Church Fathers who knew the Mysteries of the Kingdom of God were with us today, what profound mystery could they speak regarding the true teachings of Jesus that believers today would be “strangled by them”?
Throughout the history of mankind those who have openly claimed to possess the Secret Knowledge which is called Gnosis, were condemned as elitists and heretics. Yet, what the rest of mankind totally fails to understand, is the fact that it is not that a more advanced spiritual soul wishes to conceal higher knowledge from others — but rather, in the same way that kindergarteners are not prepared to study and comprehend at a university level — neither are the organic minded earth-bound people of this world, prepared to understand the higher reality of the soul and the Mysteries of the Kingdom of God. In the same way that the mind of the kindergartener must develop and mature, so too must the mind of man begin the process of expansion beyond organic limits that are supported by the physical body-vessel. And this is exactly what Paul states when he writes: “However, we speak wisdom among those who are mature, yet not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing” (1 Cor 2:6 NKJ). The King James Version reads that wisdom can only be revealed to those who are “perfect” — but what must be understood is that each soul can only perceive and comprehend in accordance with their own level of soul-evolution and spiritual development.

Reply To: Christians, It’s Not A Sin To Chang ... July 1, 2014
A member of the Nazirene Disciple Forum sent me the link to an article entitled Christians: It’s Not A Sin To Change Your Beliefs — which raises some interesting questions that are not addressed in the article. The author attempts to ignore the paradoxes of Christian teachings by stating: Imagine if John Piper suddenly altered his views on Calvinism and became an Arminian, or if Mark Driscoll publicly became an egalitarian? They would be publicly rejected and humiliated, and their followers would be lost, angry, and confused. But what if John Piper’s vision of the world is as valid as that of the opposite Arminian positions? And what if the vision of Mark Driscoll is as valid as the Egalitarian perspective? Moreover, what if there is an important reason why the Rev. John Piper perceives the teachings of the scriptures from a totally opposite perspective than that of the Arminian perspective? And there is an important reason why the Rev. Mark Driscoll’s vision and perception of the scriptures is totally opposite to that which can be portrayed as the Egalitarian perspective? Does it matter? Moreover — and perhaps most important — is the fact that if each of these paradoxical opposites present a valid truth, then isn’t it imperative for the seeker/disciple to understand not only why these different and opposite perspectives exist — but also why whole groups of sincere believers are locked into each of these divided perspectives? (see The Enigma Of The Segmented Mind). Moreover, does embracing one perspective over the opposite fulfill the objective of the scriptures?
The author of the article, Stephen Mattson, seems to be suggesting that both the cause of these different perspectives, as well as what is revealed in the perspectives themselves, doesn’t seem to matter — and that Christians should just accept these differences at face value without explanation or statement of understanding. In the typical liberal — non-thinking — ignorant of consequences — disconnect from all causal factors — devoid of all reasoning mindset — author Stephen Mattson promotes the typical non-contemplative — accept at face-value school of thought — or, perhaps better portrayed in the words, the liberal anti-thought mindset. But, when rightly understood, even what can be portrayed as the liberal anti-thought mindset has a causal factor that inhibits them from even contemplating the result and consequences of their actions.
In the opening of the article, author Stephen Mattson appears to focus on the issue of homosexuality and marriage equality — i.e., which seems to portray the issue of same-sex marriage. Which, to a contemplative seeker, should provoke the question as to why the scriptures reject same-sex unions? Was the biblical authors just a group of homophobes? Or is there a deeper meaning and purpose in the Divine Marriage of man and woman? Jesus taught that unless you bring about the next stage of birth, that you cannot enter into Life in the Kingdom — which should raise the question in the contemplative mind whether there is a higher purpose to sex that same-sex unions can’t fulfill? What if — from a holographic perspective — the sexual interaction of man and woman and the process of birth is a pattern that must be embraced on a higher level of being in order to bring about Wholeness and achieve the next stage of birth which Jesus taught was one of the primary objectives of life in this world? And what if, in the same way that a same-sex union can’t produce a physical offspring of the union, neither can a same-sex union bring about the necessary transformation that takes place in what can be portrayed as the Morphic Field where opposites merge into ONE (see Gender Blindness And The Process Of Birth).
In the dynamics of the male/female union with the potential of opposites to merge in the creation of the necessary foundation of body, mind and spirit — where the divided pattern of Adam and Eve are re-merged into the pattern of Adam/Eve in “one flesh” — the potential to fulfill the requirement set forth in the Gospel of Thomas is presented in the words: Jesus said to them, “When you make the two one, and when you make the inside like the outside and the outside like the inside, and the above like the below, and when you make the male and the female one and the same, so that the male not be male nor the female female” Is it cruel to recognize the fact that if male and female are divided (paired opposite) natures of man’s higher soul reality — and that the foundation of achieving the next stage of birth that manifests the soul in the body-vessel is holographically parallel to the process of physical conception and birth — that in the same way that two men or two women can’t produce offspring, that this same dynamics of opposites is the foundation of the next stage of birth that Jesus taught was necessary to enter into Life (see The Holographic Pattern Of Sex)?
Can we expect liberals such as Stephen Mattson who appears to embrace all things at face value, to have contemplated the esoteric reality of sex and birth? Or even that there is an esoteric reality of sex and birth that is extremely relevant in what the modern emerging science has portrayed as a holographic reality? If the vision of the mystic which has been confirmed by the modern physicist is true with respect to the holographic reality of this world as a pattern which has the potential to reveal a higher reality that transcends the organic limitations of man and woman, then can we just throw out the pattern and expect the Laws of Creation to be suspended with respect to the higher purpose of sex and gender opposites? Would we declare all fertility clinics and experts homophobic and out of touch with reality, if they failed to counsel same-sex couples on producing an offspring of the same-sex union? If two men made an appointment with a fertility clinic and complained that their sexual relationship has produced no offspring, what would the conclusion be? On a secondary note, author Stephen Mattson also lists a change of religious beliefs with respect to the infanticide of abortion — wherein we can conclude that those people who will murder the unborn, also place no emphasis on producing the necessary third-force dynamic offspring of a Divine Marriage (see Index To The Divine Marriage) that initiates the next stage of birth?
Stephen Mattson and the uber-liberal left would have us believe that the Laws of Nature as manifest in a holographic reality of mankind is irrelevant — and that by virtue of the Tinkerbell Effect, that wishful thinking can suspend man’s higher reality. Which provokes the question which is of paramount importance to the contemplative inquiring mind: Can man’s higher reality be understood ONLY by those who recognize the conflicting opposites of the Forbidden Fruit of the Tree of Duality — and in the equation of the dynamic merger of opposites that must be nourished by the Fruit of the Tree of Life, can the understanding of man’s higher spiritual reality and being ONLY be realized by the seeker of Truth and Life in the Kingdom? What is clear is that the biblical authors continually warned the entry-level faith-based Christians that the higher reality of the soul was impossible and inconceivable for man in his “natural” organic condition of mind to comprehend (see Mystery Of The Gospel) — warning the very congregation of believers that Paul himself indoctrinated into the Gospel, that if he was to speak to them plainly about the True Spiritual Meaning Of The Gospel, that they would reject his witness as utter “foolishness”!
When author Stephen Mattson states that its OK for Christians to change their religious beliefs — and embrace the anti-thinking liberal mindset — what is clear is that Stephen Mattson does not at all understand the very purpose and nature of religion itself!!! If we pose the question: What is a Spiritual Religion? We would quickly find that one of the problems that modern man has in comprehending the validity of religion is seen in the fact that he cannot differentiate and understand the marked differences between philosophy as a theory that is ascribed to, quasi-religious-philosophy which is a faith-based belief system, and genuine religion which is a mindset and lifestyle necessary to prove one’s philosophy. And from this perspective, the vast differences between faith-based religious-philosophy and genuine religion which was embraced by the core visionaries of the Age of Reason, opens the Pandora’s Box of the foundation of man’s thinking. The whole concept of religion as a means to prove the Truth — in contradistinction to blind-faith and speculative belief — has virtually no place in modern man’s understanding. In many instances, those who are looked upon as esteemed clergy and religious experts and scholars, are merely parroting the dogmatic opium of Roman Emperors who oversaw the corruption of the Bible (see BibleCorruption.com), and ruled over the doctrines of the Church (see Religion Of Roman Emperors). Therefore, what we erroneously define as religion today, is in reality little more than speculative religious philosophy that is counterfeit from a genuine religious perspective — and this fact is simply inconceivable to the modern believer who is of the position that he is required to exercise blind acceptance as a test of his faith. And perhaps even more important is the fact that many of the core visionaries of the Age of Enlightenment — men and women of evolved Intellect and Reason — some of whom were the very Deists and Masons who formed the foundational bedrock of the American Constitution — understood the counterfeit nature of the Church — because they had personal access to the Pure Source of Truth that should have been the purpose and objective of Christianity to act as guides in TheWay.
To understand the essence of a Spiritual Religion vs quasi-religious-philosophy, you must first understand why Jesus condemned and rejected the Jewish teachers and those portrayed as“…experts in religious law” as being spiritually counterfeit. The allegation of Jesus’ words is seen in the fact that there exists what he called a Key of Knowledge — and when this Key of Knowledge is properly applied, then the person possesses the ability to enter the Inner Kingdom — the portal of which is within the seekers own mind and being. And this fact is presented in the words that Jesus said to the Jewish authorities: “…For you hide the key to knowledge from the people. You don’t enter the Kingdom yourselves, and you prevent others from entering.” Thus, the objective of a Spiritual Religion is to reveal and properly apply the Key of Knowledge in such a way, that the person gains access to the Kingdom — which Kingdom Jesus said was equally within each of us (see Luke 17:20-21 @ http://GateOfEden.com ). And the fact that the carnal Jews who, in their very limited and carnal understanding of the scriptures, was teaching the people to look for the Kingdom of God to come outwardly upon the earth — in the same way that Christians today look for the Second Coming — it is seen that the leaders of both the Jews and the Christians had in fact hidden and thrown away the Key of Knowledge. Failing to fulfill the requirement of entering the Inner Kingdom themselves — which by definition made them blind guides who “…prevent others from entering.” And because the Church followed in the footsteps of the Pharisees, and itself threw away the Key of Knowledge under Roman rule, these same words apply to modern Christians as much as the Jews who Jesus rejected and condemned.
The process of birth in the Kingdom which Jesus portrayed as entering into Life, is dependent upon the merger of the pattern of opposites as allegorically portrayed in the symbolism of Adam and Eve — the eating of the Fruit of the Tree of Life — the return to Spiritual Eden (see http://GateOfEden.com ) through the application of what Jesus portrayed as the Key of Knowledge to open the “narrow strait gate” within the seeker/disciples own mind and being. And, in the words of Jesus: “But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and join to his wife; And they two shall be one flesh: so then they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no one separate” (Mark 10:6-9). But it is not until we begin to understand that man and woman are dynamic halves of a single unit that has the potential to bring forth life — both on a physical, mental and spiritual level of being — that we can begin to understand the dynamic application of the scriptures within our own mind and being within the merger and union of opposites and the process of birth in the Kingdom that is the fulfillment of the Gospel Objectives.
A most important teaching on the coming of the Kingdom which was removed from the Gospels by the Church Of Roman Emperors, is preserved in the Second Epistle of Clement where Jesus teaches on the coming of the Kingdom in the words: “Let us expect, therefore, hour by hour, the kingdom of God in love and righteousness, since we know not the day of the appearing of God. For the Lord Himself, being asked by one when His kingdom would come, replied, ‘When two shall be one, that which is without as that which is within, and the male with the female, neither male nor female’”. How can “…the male with the female [be] neither male nor female’”? The answer: When the two truly become “one flesh” within a the dynamics of a Spiritual Divine Marriage (see Index To The Divine Marriage) — which holographically has the potential to merge the husband/wife into a spiritual embryo in the pattern of the physical embryo that becomes a fetus. Can such a husband and wife achieve the next stage of birth that is made reference to in the Gospel? Only when they live the necessary Consecrated Life in TheWay — making their body and mind into the Final Temple — properly applying the Key of Knowledge to open the “narrow strait gate” by entering within the Holy of Holies within their own mind and being.
