I have spent most of the day debating the wisdom of writing this next blog entry. And, it's not that I care about what others may think about what I say here. If you have spent any time reading through my several blogs, and my entries, you already know that I've had some rather strange happenings in my life, many of which may leave you looking askance at what you're reading.
You may even conclude that I'm delusional, or at the very least schizophrenic. Although I've heard voices (or A Voice), off and on, most of my life, not once have they urged me to do something harmful to others, or to myself.
If anything, they have given me surprising, and generally unknown information about me and the world in which I live.
For example, I was told that we humans weren't this planets first inhabitants, that there were others, who have since moved on. Perhaps science will one day discover who they were.
Another piece of information: All the continents once came together at the Panama Canal, and have since drifted apart.
And I was told, and shown, that this country was moving towards an EU type of economic cooperation (the European Union) long before the US, Canada, and Mexico began to consider a North American counterpart, and answer, to the economic cooperation that was taking place in Europe.
It is called the North American Union, complete with its own currency, the Amero, which had its seminal beginning in October of 2004, and is not to reach its full flowering for another two years, 2010. The scope of the plan was detailed in two documents: "Trinational Call for a North American Economic and Security Community by 2010 (March 2005) and its final report Building a North American Community[1] (May 2005."
I won't direct you to Internet resources discussing this proposal which appears to be a foregone conclusion, what with NAFTA, the North American Free Trade Agreement, already in place, and foundational for this new trinational enterprise. Google for more information.
I wanted a context for what I'm about to say next, the magnitude of which and the not so obvious source, might cause consternation for some.
The primary reason for my hesitancy is for those of you who may read my blog and believe that the world is teetering on the verge of some doomsday scenario. That may not be the case.
I've decided to blog about what the voice said so that posterity may use it as a reference point long after I'm gone, provided that this blog survives me, and is not deleted by Blogger for inactivity.
Finally, after a very long preface and the laying of a necessary foundation, here's what was said to me:
I want to do it; I want to do it all the time...to destroy the suffering that I see.
What was this thing that the voice wanted to do: Destroy the World.
Now, before you leap to a rash conclusion, let me give you two definitions for "destroying the world."
It could mean our physical world as we know it, and it could mean "The World" that is often referenced in the Bible, and often misunderstood, or misused. "The World," biblically speaking, often refers to the world that Jesus discusses:
John 15:19
If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but
because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out
of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
John 2:15
Love not the world, neither the things that are in
the world. If any man love the world, the love of
the Father is not in him.
John 8:23
And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from
above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
John 12:31The world, then, is a belief that a power, a reality, and an existence can exist apart from God, the Father-Mother of All.
Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the
prince of this world be cast out.
It's the last verse, John 12:13, that I believe is referenced when I'm told that the world will be destroyed. At least that's my hope.
It was never God's plan that humankind should "suffer". Shirley MacLaine, yes, the actress, has written in one of her books, I believe it was Out on a Limb, about how we got ourselves into this predicament.
According to her Higher Self, it was we, gods, that created All that we see--the heavens, the earth and All living things. In short, God created us, and we created everything else.
Our bodies were created as a kind of vehicle for the gods, a way for us to experience that which we had created, and a way to experience God in the lowest form of His essence, called matter.
We spent so much time within our creations that we eventually lost sight of our divinity, that we were both the creator and the creature, and became aware of the creature only.
Stuck in matter, we panicked, and this panic created Fear, and this Fear gave rise to All that which has caused our suffering--a material (matter-based) form (body), subject to the vagaries of the world--hunger, thirst, pain, illness, and ultimately death.
Karma, and Reincarnation were established as a way of allowing humankind to experience everything as a way back to the Godhead, and the realization that we're Total Love.
This is where Shirley's story ends and mine begins:
As gods with "freewill," voluntarily placing ourselves into this earthly situation, it would require someone to remind us of our True Nature as gods, or children of God, or God's offspring.
Jesus became that reminder.
John 3:16It's one explanation of how we arrived at this place on the space-time continuum, and it offers an explanation of how we might get off the cosmic wheel of our karmic and reincarnation dilemma.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only
begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
As an aside, Shirley's explanation adds credence to the creationist's belief that humankind is only 6000 to 10,000 years old. Where the concept falters is in the belief that the whole universe was created during that time.
Although man (and various species of man) have existed, according to Naturalistic Evolution (NE), from 50,000 to 200,000 years ago, with Pre-humans/hominids showing up 3 to 7 million years ago, god-man may not have come into existence until recently, when he became mired in matter.
In Conversations with God, we're told that creation took place All at Once, in the Holy Moment of Now, because God couldn't wait, and from our perspective it looked like billions of years of evolution, which puts the creationist and evolutionist more in sync, making them both right regarding how the world came about.
Reading several blogs recently where human suffering has been highlighted, I'm not surprised about having received this message from beyond, as we're wont to say.
What did take me aback was the voice's revelation that it is considering the destruction of the world because, one might conclude, human misery is becoming unbearable both to watch, and for humankind to endure.
In the Gospel of Thomas we read the following:
Jesus said, "If the flesh came into being because of spirit,And we have this from the Second Epistle to the Corinthians
it is a wonder. But if spirit came into being because of the body, it is a wonder of wonders. Indeed, I am amazed at how this great wealth has made its home in this poverty.
For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that,Jesus tells us, by way of Thomas, that the spirit did not create the flesh, and the flesh did not create the spirit, and that the "wealth" of spirit was never intended to take up resident within the flesh. And that it appears to do so at all, is a cause for "amazement."
though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor,
that ye through his poverty might be rich.
Yet, there's something we All can do to hasten the day when human suffering, and man's inhumanity to man will be a thing of the past.
It just requires the continuous devotion of a few--relative to the overall size of the world's population--to bring this about.
I have blogged about this before, and the entry may be found here. We're living in critical times. I urge your participation in this very important work of "Feeding God's Family."
We can bring about an end to human suffering, but we must work while it is day, for night cometh.
