Reply To: Christians, It's Not A Sin To Change Your Beliefs!

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.

In Reply To: Sexual Violence And The Church - The Folly Of Sojourners Mag.

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

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

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

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

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


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

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

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


When did the corruption of the scriptures begin?   There is strong evidence which confirms the charge that the Gospels were corrupted as soon as they were given into the hands of many of the Gentile Churches.   Something which no sincere believer today should take lightly is the charge against Christians by Celsus, the second century Epicurean philosopher, who alleged that: "Certain Christians, like men who are overcome by the fumes of wine and care not in the least what they say, alter the original text of the Gospels so that they admit of various and almost indefinite readings. And this, I suppose, they have done out of worldly policy, so that when we press an argument home, they might have the more scope for their pitiful evasions".   Celsus concludes that because of the wholesale rewriting and corruption of the text of the scriptures, that this fraud has made all of Christianity a bogus lie: "It is clear to me that the writings of the Christians are a lie, and that your fables are not well-enough constructed to conceal this monstrous fiction: I have even heard that some of your interpreters, as if they had just come out of a tavern, are onto the inconsistencies and, pen in hand, alter the originals writings, three, four and several more times over in order to be able to deny the contradictions in the face of criticism." (R.J.Hoffmann's Celsus: On The True Doctrine, Oxford University Press, 1987).   

What teachings were removed from the Gospels?   From a spiritual perspective, the most important.    Moreover, when that segment of the Church which portrayed itself as Orthodox entered into a covenant with the Emperor Constantine, they used the most corrupted versions of the New Testament as a starting point, and then further corrupted the text in order to make it support the tenets of Pagan Rome.    But herein lies the problem: If the Gospels were corrupted -- with many of the most important spiritual teachings edited or removed in order to make them support the tenets of Pagan Rome -- then how can the modern Christian even begin to know the Truth?   The answer is found in the words:  “Then many of the Jewish leaders who heard him say these things began believing him to be the Messiah. Jesus said to them, 'You are truly my disciples if you live as I tell you to, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free’” (John 8:30-32 TLB).    And if we augment this statement with the text of the that translation known as The Message, we can begin to understand the solution to the dilemma -- i.e., "If you stick with this, living out what I tell you, you are my disciples for sure.  Then you will experience for yourselves the truth, and the truth will free you."   The key message is in the words that the seeker must "live out what [Jesus taught] ...then you will experience for yourselves the truth".   And in this respect, the Law is that you can never possess any greater Truth than you are willing to live and manifest in your daily life.   So while it is true that the Gospel was corrupted in order to make it support the dogma of the Emperor Constantine and Pagan Rome, it is also true that with the restoral of the suppressed teachings and a desire on the part of Christians to "live out what [Jesus taught]" , there is the promise of the Gospel that "...you will experience for yourselves the truth"

With the corrupting of the biblical texts and the hunting down of the Spiritual Christians as heretics because they refused to adhere to the dogma of Pagan Rome, the 4th century Church of Constantine put to death the Spirit of the Church (see The Corruption Of The Church).   Yet, it's Spiritual Castration which totally alienated all generations of future Christian believers from comprehending even what was left of a corrupted and spiritually sanitized New Testament (see Bible Corruption), was implemented in the 6th century.   As an example of how the Christian world was literally forced to adhere to the dogma of the emperors, when the doctrine of the pre-existent soul was outlawed by the Emperor Justinian, the Britannica confirms that the emperor then forced his will upon the Church when he "...banished the pope to Egypt , and afterwards to an island, until he accepted the Council, which he ultimately did" (see http://Ebionite.com/reincarnation.htm ).    After relenting to the will of the emperor, and finely accepting the decree of the emperor after seven months of imprisonment, it is reported that the pope met with an untimely death before he could even return to the Vatican.
Peace can only be achieved when the Church is restored to its position as the Light of the World -- and this can only be accomplished by a restoral of the Original Teachings and Core Gospel First Principles!
