The Foundation Of Deism - By Thomas Paine (Redux)
At
its Core and Essence, Deism is a
Spiritual Movement -- which means
that it is impossible to discuss the
Foundation of Deism, without
exploring important spiritual
subjects and concepts that set Deism
apart from the tenets of Revealed
Religion. In our modern
time-frame, many quasi-agnostics
have aligned themselves with Deism
because of its positions against the
Church and Revealed Religion.
Resulting in the fact that, at the
mere mention of spiritual concepts,
these quasi-agnostics immediately
are turned off -- mainly because to
their thinking and mindset, Deism is
more of an academic and secularized
movement, than a spiritual movement.
Yet, it is impossible to understand
the Laws of Nature and Nature's God,
without understanding important
spiritual concepts that is the very
Foundation of Deism and its
opposition to all forms of Revealed
Religion. Why is this
important? At any time that
mankind is willing to understand the
Natural Laws, and reach out and
consciously invoke them, the organic
curtain to Higher Knowledge and
Enlightenment begins to be torn down
-- immersing the sincere Deist in a
level of Knowing that exceeds any of
the Universities and Libraries of
this world.
In
Einstein's Unfinished Symphony, he
stated "I
am not interested in this phenomenon
or that phenomenon,"
Einstein had said earlier in his
life. "I
want to know God's thoughts – the
rest are mere details".
Yet, only the sincere Deist who
understands the Natural Laws of
Creation and is willing to apply
them within his own mind and being,
is able to
"...know God's Thoughts",
and it is this Knowledge of the
Natural Laws that is the Core and
Essence of Deism. Enlightened
seekers understand that it is
impossible to begin to open the door
to Higher Knowledge, without
exploring many of those Universal
Concepts that can be classified as
Spiritual. But with the
influx of quasi-agnostics who
portray themselves as Deists, the
original foundation of Deism has
been replaced with the thinking of
academia and science -- the leaders
of which have been raised up to the
priest-craft of Revealed Deism.
To the mindset and thinking of
agnostics, modern science has ripped
down the curtain of ignorance and
superstition which they see as the
foundation of the Church -- without
understanding that it was the Church
that corrupted the tenets of Deism
that was an important part of the
Original Gospel teachings. But
what modern science has truly
accomplished, is proving that the
the mystic and those who walked the
spiritual path was correct (see
The True Facts And Realities Of Life
http://KnowThySelf.Nazirene.org#TrueFactAndRealitiesOfLife
) -- and the Truth can only be
proven with the restoration of
Enlightened Deists who understand
and can apply the Laws of Nature and
Nature's God. Which means that
only those professors of academia
and scientists who understand
spiritual concepts and the Laws of
Nature and Nature's God, will be
able to lead mankind through the
door of Enlightenment and True
Knowing. When rightly
understood, Plato was a Deist (see
Plato - The Physicist
http://KnowThySelf.Nazirene.org#Plato
) -- and he possessed the essential
knowledge of the Natural Laws which
permitted him to bridge the divide
between the illusions of this realm,
and what modern science has
portrayed as the UNSEEN SOURCE of
the incomplete images that we see
and interact with in this world of
shadow-images.
While Deists and Theists equally believe in God, the primary difference is
that the Deists understand the Natural Laws that enables the seeker/believer to
develop the necessary mental and spiritual maturity that permits them to connect
directly with God. When the Gospel teachings are properly
understood, Jesus was a Deist who applied his self-knowledge of the Natural Laws to
overcome organic human limitations, thereby enabling him to connect with the Indwelling Logos (Mind
of God), arise to the level of becoming Enlightened and Empowered by the
Anointing of his Mind (Messiah/Christ) -- evolving through the necessary
subsequent stages of birth -- and becoming the embodiment of Wholeness,
Perfection and Completion -- which is the ultimate destiny of all of mankind.
In fact, the Original followers and
disciples of Jesus maintained that
ANYONE who understood the Natural
Laws and would apply this Knowledge
to their lives, would know and
achieve all that the historical man
Jesus did. But this wisdom was
not only rejected by Revealed
Religion, but this essential
knowledge was suppressed by the
Church -- thereby maintaining the
people in a state of subjection and
abject spiritual ignorance. In the words of Harriet Tubman:
"I freed a thousand
slaves I could have freed a thousand more if only they knew they were slaves."
If more people understood the Natural Laws of Creation -- and applied that
knowledge to their lives -- they could then free themselves from the limitations
of organic human consciousness that has created a barrier between mankind and
God, man's true Source of Being.
One of the major differences between Theists and Deists
is seen in the fact that Theists fail to understand the meaning of the Sabbath
or Seventh Day (see The Spiritual Sabbath
http://OuterDarkness.Nazirene.org#SpiritualSabbath ). In not
understanding the Natural Laws, Theists believe that after the
Seventh Day of Rest in the allegorical Genesis account, that God got back to work in the daily
functioning and intercessions in the workings of this
world. Genesis chapter two reads: "Thus
the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array. By the seventh
day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested
from all his work. Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on
it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done."
Where the Deist understood the words that
"...the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array
...God had finished the work he had been doing" -- understand
the meaning of the word FINISHED -- the Theist asserted that it is necessary for Creator-God to perpetually
intervene in the day to day affairs of this world. In contradistinction to
the position of the Theists, the Deist position was
that Creator-God brought forth and initiated a series of Laws which He (quoting
Wikipedia: Deism):
"...endowed the world at creation with self-sustaining and
self-acting powers and then abandoned it to the operation of these powers acting
as second causes." What is said to be the
Deist theology has often been portrayed as the Clock Maker Universe --
i.e., (Quoting):
"The
clockwork universe theory compares the universe to a mechanical clock wound up
by a supreme being, or initiated by the Big Bang. It continues ticking along, as
a perfect machine, with its gears governed by the laws of physics, making every
single aspect of the machine completely predictable. Before the emergence of
quantum mechanics, many scientists believed that the Universe was completely
deterministic in this way. ...This conception of the universe consisted of a
huge, regulated and uniform machine that operated according to natural laws in
absolute time, space, and motion. God was the master-builder, who created the
perfect machine and let it run. God was the Prime Mover, who brought into being
the world in its lawfulness, regularity, and beauty. This view of God as the
creator, who stood aside from his work and didn’t get involved directly with
humanity, was called Deism (which predates Newton) and was accepted by many who
supported the 'new philosophy'." How
did the Deists arrive at their conclusion? Because Jesus and all
enlightened seekers were Deists who understood the Laws of Nature, they were
able to learn from God about the functioning of the Natural Laws of Creation.
Because the Theists did not understand the Natural Laws -- and they therefore
embraced the doctrine of men instead of being able to learn directly from God --
the Natural laws remained an unknown enigma to the very foundation of their
thinking.
Again, lets closely examine the
position of
Deism which
embodies the above concepts on a "...Supreme being
[that] does not intervene in human affairs or suspend the natural laws of the universe
...assert[ing] that God (or "The Supreme Architect") has a plan for the universe
that is not to be altered by intervention in the affairs of human life."
These Laws that were instituted as "...a plan for
the universe that is not to be altered by intervention in the affairs of human
life", because these Laws not only drive mankind to his Destiny
envisioned and ordained by Creator-God, but they accomplish this by maintaining
a Spiritual Living Bio-Feedback environment that perpetually returns to each
individual person the fruit of their own words and actions. And it
is these same Laws
that were imbued with the Power of
God to advance man in his journey of the soul, by immersing him in a world of mental
imagery impressed into the forms of matter. Therefore, once this higher
reality is understood, what the scriptures do is reformat the mental imagery in
such a way, that when the scriptures are applied internally as the Key of Knowledge
(
http://KeyOfKnowledge.org ), the scriptures
act as a catalyst that is used to expand man's organic reasoning and depth of
mind to the degree with the seeker is able to move beyond the natural limitations of man's
organic level of consciousness, and perceive and comprehend man's higher soul
reality and the Mysteries of the Kingdom of God.
Does a Living Bio-Feedback
Organism that God
"...endowed ...with
self-sustaining and self-acting powers"that
were perfectly programmed and totally attuned to the condition of
the individual person, need intervention to bring about the results for which
the system was specifically designed to achieve? The journey of the soul and
the very Will of Creator-God that has imbued the Laws of Nature and all of
Creation with the ability to bring about the Design of God, is embodied in the
words: "For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor
are your ways My ways, says the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the
earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your
thoughts. For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, and do not
return there, but water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, that it may
give seed to the sower and bread to the eater, So shall My word be that goes
forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish
what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it"
(Isa 55:8-11 NKJ).
Mankind has a Destiny that he
cannot escape -- and contrary to what is published by organized religion, there
are no shortcuts that exempt a person from fulfilling the above Word of
Creator-God who enacted the Laws in the Alpha of Creation. In the parable of
the prodigal son, the Father does not intervene in the life and hardships of the
son while he dwells and aimlessly wanders in the tribulations of the Far Country under the control of
the Citizen (consciousness) of this world. Only when the prodigal son is
portrayed as
"coming to his senses", and begins the
return journey back to his source in the Edenic Kingdom, does the Father meet him while he is still a
"long way off". The Father did
not rush into the Far Country to intervene in the affairs of his son, because as
stated in Genesis: "...the heavens and the earth
were completed in all their vast array" -- and the Laws that
Creator-God
"...endowed the world at creation with
self-sustaining and self-acting powers and then"
these Laws maintained
"...the operation of these powers
acting as second causes" which ensured that the
"...word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall
not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall
prosper in the thing for which I sent it". And it is these
Natural Laws of Creation that were imbued with
"...powers acting as second
causes" that acts as a Bio-Feedback Organism that
monitors and maintains the progress of each Soul -- causing each Soul to
"...accomplish what [God] pleases" --
causing each Soul to "...prosper in the thing
for which [God] sent it" -- causing each Soul to achieve the Wholeness
and Perfection that God envisioned to be the Destiny of all of mankind in the
Omega of Creation. If the foregoing is true, and each Soul cannot
return to God and the Edenic Kingdom without fulfilling the Law and evolving
mentally and spiritually to Wholeness and Completion, then this process where
the Natural Laws act as a Living Bio-Feedback Organism can only bring the Word
of God about, when each Soul is subject to the Laws over the course of however
many lives is required.
The foundation of Deism is the
Clock-Maker Universe which is the basis of the Deist position that Creator-God
does not DIRECTLY intervene in the affairs of this world. The problem is
that few modern Deists understand the Clock-Maker Universe, because the
foundation of the Clock-Maker Universe is the Journey of the Soul over the
course of many lifetimes. And because those quasi-agnostics who have adopted Deism have
been reared in a spiritually sterile academic environment, those who claim to be
Deists in our modern society, are incapable of understanding the very foundation
of Deism. Why is the Deist Foundation important? Because the
Clock-Maker Universe represents the gateway to higher consciousness. And
without understanding the Clock-Maker Universe, all attempts to mature and
evolve the mind beyond the lower levels of human organic consciousness, will be
flat-lined. Which provokes the question: Why does Deism play a pivotal role in the development of the
mind? Because it focuses on the Natural Laws of Creation that must be
prevailed over, in order to open the door to Higher Consciousness.
When rightly understood, the tenets of Deism was rejected
by the Church that corrupted
the teachings of Jesus -- which in teachings in their foundation, were Deist.
Yet, 18the century Deism represented a return to the Original Gospel
teachings that the Church suppressed. In a letter from Thomas Jefferson to
Benjamin Rush, Jefferson wrote respecting the relationship of Deism and
Christianity:
"To the corruptions of
Christianity I am indeed opposed; but not to the genuine precepts of Jesus
himself. I am a Christian, in the only sense he wished any one to be; sincerely
attached to his doctrines, in preference to all others; ascribing to himself
every human excellence; & believing he never claimed any other"
This same exact thought is expressed in the
Wikipedia article under
Deism:
History of religion and the deist mission. Most deists saw the religions of
their day as corruptions of an original, pure religion that was simple and
rational. They felt that this original pure religion had become corrupted by
"priests" who had manipulated it for personal gain and for the class interests
of the priesthood in general. According to this world view, over time
"priests" had succeeded in encrusting the original simple, rational religion
with all kinds of superstitions and "mysteries" – irrational theological
doctrines. Laymen were told by the priests that only the priests really knew
what was necessary for salvation and that laymen must accept the "mysteries" on
faith and on the priests' authority. This kept the laity baffled by the
nonsensical "mysteries", confused, and dependent on the priests for information
about the requirements for salvation. The priests consequently enjoyed a
position of considerable power over the laity, which they strove to maintain and
increase. Deists referred to this kind of manipulation of religious doctrine as
"priestcraft", a highly derogatory term. Deists saw their mission as
the stripping away of 'priestcraft' and 'mysteries' from religion, thereby restoring
religion to its original, true condition – simple and rational. In many cases,
they considered true, original Christianity to be the same as this original
natural religion.
Because many of the Deists understood the Natural
Laws, this knowledge enabled them to tap into the Higher Source of Knowledge
that is beyond the limited understanding of mankind in this three-dimensional
world. Like the first century Spiritual Christians, the Enlightened Deists
understood that the tenets of Theism was born out of the priest-craft of the
Church who were peddling faux-salvation to the multitude of people for profit
and political power. The Enlightened Christians and Deists understood that, in order to
evolve the mind out of the cocoon of ignorance, the person had to seek
self-knowledge, and understand the
Natural Laws that was the foundation of the Clock-Maker Universe. Which
meant that the person also had to understand the Journey of the Soul over the
course of many lifetimes. But to even suggest that the Soul evolved over
the course of many lives -- and that Creator-God did not directly intervene in
the affairs of man because the Natural Laws intimately monitored every step of
his mental and spiritual evolution -- was incomprehensible to the majority of
people who neither understood the Natural Laws, or the very purpose and
objective of the lives they were living. From a Deist perspective,
both Thomas Paine and Jefferson possessed varying degrees of past-life recall --
but to reveal their source of information was drawn from their experiences in
the previous lives their soul had lived, would have undermined their efforts to
bring about a government of Freedom, Liberty and Exceptionalism.
Deism maintains that Creator-God does not directly intervene in the affairs
of man. Why? In the same way that once fertilized, an embryo develops in accord
with the Natural Laws, the same is true with respect to all of Creation. And
herein lies the problem -- i.e., where physical development can be portrayed as
a cookie-cutter operation, mental development requires choice and the exercise
of freewill -- which can only be accomplished when each person is able to live out
their life in accord with the choices they have made. Therefore, when the
Laws that were put into effect are understood, perhaps the best way to
understand these Laws that the Deists portrayed as the Laws of Nature and
Nature's God, is as a Living Spiritual Bio-Feedback Organism that like a developing
embryo, dynamically evolves each soul to completion by intimately responding to
our every action, reaction and failure to act -- and responds appropriately when
the time is opportune for our greatest learning and advancement. That these Laws
were put into action in the Alpha of Creation -- and are the Perfect Works of
Creator-God that is Dynamically connected to the movement of man -- is a reality
of the Laws that the core Deists attempted unsuccessfully to convey to the
Theists and organized religion.
What the Spiritual Christians and the Enlightened Deists of the past
understood that modern Christians remain ignorant of, is the fact that the man
Jesus evolved into what can be portrayed as an Anointed (Messiah/Christ) Mind by
fulfilling the (Natural) Laws -- i.e., the same Natural Laws that impact the
mind and being of all mankind. And while the fact that Jesus was portrayed
as a Holy Man who fulfilled the Natural Law and arose to the stature of
achieving a condition of At-One with the Indwelling Logos (Mind of God), was
represented in the very Words that God spoke to mankind at the baptism of Jesus
-- but these words were changed by the later Church that corrupted the original
Gospel teachings (see The Unforgivable Sin Of
The Church
http://BrotherOfJesus.org#TheUnforgivableSinOfTheChurch ). Which
provokes the question: How was the Laws fulfilled? Within
Jesus' own mind and being. And this fact of human reality is presented in the
witness of his Ebionite Nazirene disciples who stated that Jesus
"...was 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, for they assert that our Lord Himself was a
man in like sense with all humanity" (see
Hippolytus, Refut. Omn. Haer. vii. 34). Further, with the corruption of
the Gospels by the Gentile Church, it was no longer understood that the Soul who
lived as the historical man Jesus arose to this elevated plateau where he was
able to totally fulfill the (Natural) Laws of Creation, over the course of many
lifetimes.
The
word Christ is a Greek word that the
Bible translators choose not to
render in the English language
because it means Anointed -- which
in Hebrew, is Messiah.
In the Old Testament there were 21
people who were portrayed as having
been Anointed. And this is
demonstrated in the quotations of
St. Jerome in the Gospel of the
Hebrews which reads:
"If thy
brother (saith he) have sinned by a
word and made thee amends, seven
times in a day receive thou him.
Simon his disciple said unto him:
Seven times in a day? The Lord
answered and said unto him: Yea, I
say unto thee, unto seventy times
seven times. For in the prophets
also, after they were anointed by
the Holy Spirit, the word of sin was
found." Therefore,
when properly understood, not only
were others Anointed
(Christ/Messiah) -- and therefore
could be portrayed as the Christ --
but anyone who achieves a certain
mental and spiritual level can be
Anointed. And what the
original followers and disciples of
Jesus said, was that anyone who
fulfills the (Natural) Laws within
their own mind and being, To THE
DEGREE THAT THEY CAN RECEIVE IT, can
become the Anointed
(Christ/Messiah). That
all of mankind can become the
Anointed, is demonstrated in the
words:
"You, however, have an anointing
from the Holy One, and all of you
know the truth" (1 John
2:20). And the original
disciples and followers of Jesus
understood the relationship between
fulfilling the (Natural) Laws and
becoming the Anointed, as stated in
the position that Jesus
"...was justified by fulfilling the
Law. He was the Christ of God, since
not one of the rest of mankind had
observed the Law completely"
-- which enlightened understanding
was the result of the original
followers and disciples
"...having
an anointing from the Holy One, and
all of you know the truth".
And it was this same Power of
Enlightenment TO THE DEGREE THEY
COULD RECEIVE IT, that was the
Source of the Deists understanding
of the Natural Laws and the
foundational Clock-Maker Universe.
The Law that is being noted in the foregoing, is the Natural Laws of
Consciousness that the Enlightened Deists made reference to in the words, the
Laws of Nature and Nature's God. And that all of mankind
possesses this same innate potential to overcome the organic human limitations imposed
upon them by the Natural Laws, is presented in the above words that
"...Had any one else fulfilled the commandments of the
Law, he would have been the Christ".
What this means is that anyone who fulfills the Natural Laws within
their own
mind and consciousness in the manner that the historical man Jesus did,
can
themselves arise -- level upon level of mental and spiritual development
-- to the same elevated plateau of mind and spirit that Jesus did.
The historical man Jesus had received the Anointing over many of the
previous
lives his Soul had lived -- and quoting St. Jerome, it was in that life
that he
had arose to the level where it was stated of him in the Gospel of the
Hebrews:
"The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, not
partially as in the case of other holy men: but, according to the Gospel written
in the Hebrew speech, which the Nazarenes read, 'There shall descend upon him
the whole fount of the Holy Spirit'". That the inner core
of Deists understood this Power of the Anointing that each seeker can receive in
accord with their ability to receive it, is why they placed such emphasis on the
Natural Laws. Further, that the Enlightened Deists understood that it was the Church that corrupted
and suppressed the Original Teachings of Jesus, that was the cause of man's
ignorance -- casting him down into the dungeons of the Dark Ages where mankind was
possessed by abject unknowing and superstition.
Using the writings of PanDeist Giordano Bruno who was
an ordained Roman Catholic priest of the Dominican order, Bruno understood that
each life can be rightly portrayed as an intense lesson intended to bring about
the mental and spiritual and maturity of the soul. And this is
demonstrated where Bruno explained that:
"The soul is not the body and it may be in one body or in
another, and pass from body to body".
Why? Because each life is a step in the advancement of the Soul as it
evolves from the Alpha of Ignorance to the Omega of Enlightened Light.
And thus, Giordano Bruno explained that
"Every act performed brings its
appropriate reward or punishment in another life. In proportion as the soul has
conducted itself in a body, it determines for itself its transition into another
body." Why is each life orchestrated by the
acts performed in that soul's previous lives? Because each life is a
reflection of that soul's need for development, in order to achieve the
necessary Wholeness and Completion in the Omega of our Destiny.
Why is there evil in the world? Why doesn't God intervene in the
affairs of the man? Why does God permit mankind to experience suffering
and death? Unless you can correctly answer these questions, there will
remain an obstacle in your thinking that will inhibit your mental development.
As to the answer: Because each person has either authored their present life by
virtue of their own words and/or actions in the previous lives their Soul has
lived, or has chosen their present life in order to grow and evolve through the
experiences that life has to offer. Mental and Spiritual growth is
dependent upon the choices we make, the exercise of freewill, and the
experiential-knowledge derived from the paths in life that each of us has chosen
to take -- as seen in the statement of Bruno:
"Every act performed brings its
appropriate reward or punishment in another life".
The vast majority of mankind dwell in a state of
Spiritual Amnesia (see
http://AnInconvenientTruth.org#SpiritualAmnesia ) -- causing
them to live lives of self-imposed abject
ignorance. Why? Because they possess no understanding of the Natural
Laws -- how the Natural Laws effect every aspect of the life they are living --
and because they can't intellectually conceive of the Causal Factors of life,
their countless questions remain unanswered. Because the most crucial
questions pertaining to life remain unanswered, the great void in man's
understanding causes his intellect to remain hopelessly immature and
undeveloped. What is being personified in the foregoing words, is an elementary
understanding of the Natural Laws that provide a crucial comprehension of the
Causal Factors of the life that you are living. Which means that without
understanding the Natural Laws, science, religion, academia and philosophy all
remain shackled to abject ignorance -- unable to answer crucial questions that
are necessary to comprehend man's own true higher reality. And when
rightly understood, all the confusion in
life -- all the great voids in the quest of science -- all the conflicting Bible
interpretations -- all the opposing sects, schools of philosophical thought, and
the countless conflicting opinions among mankind -- are all caused by this
self-imposed arrested mental developmental condition that causes man to dwell in
a state of Mental-Suppression. Unless you understand the Causal-Factors of
life -- and especially the life you are presently living -- including the
Causal-Factors of the events you have been experiencing and sometimes
confronting in life -- then your whole perception of life will be either
defective, or hopelessly immature -- and it will remain virtually impossible for
your mind to evolve and mature beyond its present level of comprehension.
Science has already proven the wisdom of the analogy of Plato's Cave and the
parallel Gospel portrayal of the Outer Darkness of mind and being (see The True
Facts And Realities Of Life
http://KnowThySelf.Nazirene.org#TrueFactAndRealitiesOfLife
) -- and because they close their minds to the Causal Factors of the Natural
Laws, they choose the path of blind-ignorance. While modern science has proven
that this physical realm of appearances is a projection of a Higher Unseen
Causal-Reality that they know virtually nothing about, their fossilized
Linear-based foundation of thinking inhibits them from perceiving and understanding the
crucial Causal-Factors that would provide an answer to their most crucial of
questions. In an article entitled, Things That Science Can't Explain by Dr. Claude
Swanson, he writes: "There are many things modern science cannot explain, and
yet they occur anyway. This includes phenomena in the 'hard sciences' as well as
in the paranormal. These effects are now being proven in the laboratory, even
though they defy present scientific theory. These unfolding mysteries point the
way to a new, deeper science, a science which no longer denies spirit and
consciousness, but acknowledges and embraces them. In the past three decades
scientific evidence has accumulated which proves that the present scientific paradigm
is broken and fatally flawed". The problem is that the emerging body of science demonstrates that
the vision of the mystic in the analogy of Plato's Cave is valid -- and what man
sees with his physical senses is not the Source -- which Source exists in the
unseen Forces and Realities that are beyond man's organic vision. From the
perspective of the fossilized science of the past: If they can't
see it, then from their perspective, it does not exist. The reality portrayed by
modern physicists that what organic man sees with his physical eyes is a
shadow-image of a higher unseen reality, simply boggles their mind. Because they
have been proven wrong, they remain in denial of the fact that because what is
portrayed as the UNSEEN Source is not within the spectrum of frequency that man can
perceive with his physical eyes, then it does not exist. In like manner,
Christianity knowingly continues to use corrupted biblical texts with the most
important teachings suppressed and removed, because they have permitted
themselves to remain totally alienated from the Original Gospel Teachings (see
http://OriginalGospel.Ebionite.com ). Without understanding the Causal-Factor of
all the events of life, it is impossible for the mind to evolve beyond a certain
level of organic human comprehension.
Every event in everyone's life has a Causal-Factor. What is a
Causal-Factor? When Jesus said to the man:
"...sin no more, lest a worse
thing come unto thee" (John 5:14), what he was
portraying was a reality of the Natural Laws of Creation that interact with each
of us in the manner of a Living Bio-Feedback Organism. And what he was in
fact stating is that the Laws which intimately interact with our every word and
action, has brought about and initiated what we experience today -- and what we
experience is the result of our words and actions drawn from our own past --
i.e., “Even as I
have seen, those who plow iniquity and sow trouble reap the same”
(Job 4:8 NKJ); “Therefore they shall eat the
fruit of their own way, and be filled to the full with their own fancies”
(Prov 1:31 NKJ); “But you have planted
wickedness, you have reaped evil, you have eaten the fruit of deception”
(Hosea 10:13 NIV); “God will give to each person
according to what he has done” (Rom 2:6 NIV);
“Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A
man reaps what he sows. The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that
nature will reap destruction; the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the
Spirit will reap eternal life” (Gal 6:7-8 NIV);
“If anyone has an ear, let him hear. He who
leads into captivity shall go into captivity; he who kills with the sword must
be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints”
(Rev 13:9-10 NKJ); “Whoever sheds the blood
of man, by man shall his blood be shed; for in the image of God has God made
man” (Gen 9:6 NIV);
“His disciples asked him [Jesus], Rabbi,
who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?”
(Jn 9:2 NIV).
Take
especial notice of the foregoing
words:
"He who leads into
captivity shall go into captivity" --
which is the basis and the
foundation of the Constitution of
the United States. Those who
attempt to use either church or
state to force another into
submission against their own will,
will find themselves in the future
born under the control of a despotic
regime where people do not possess
Unalienable God-Given Rights.
Regimes such as Cuba, Communist
Soviet Union, China, or a whole host
of countries where Liberty and
Freedom is subject to secular
control. Even Socialism is an
infringement upon the Natural Laws
-- and those who support Socialism
of any other such government that
imposes upon the Rights of the
Individual, will cause the
supporters of Socialism to be born
into regimes where they will be
denied Freedom and Liberty.
Prof. Walter Williams lived
previously as one of our
Constitutional Framers, and in a
commentary entitled
America's Move Towards Tyranny
he presented an important
warning to the American People where
he wrote:
"Supreme Court Justice Louis
Brandeis warned,
'The
greatest dangers to liberty lurk in
the insidious encroachment by men of
zeal, well meaning but without
understanding.'
The freedom of individuals from
compulsion or coercion never was,
and is not now, the normal state of
human affairs. The normal state for
the ordinary person is tyranny,
arbitrary control and abuse mainly
by their own government. While
imperfect in its execution, the
Founders of our nation sought to
make an exception to this ugly part
of mankind's history. Unfortunately,
at the urging of the American
people, we are unwittingly in the
process of returning to mankind's
normal state of affairs."
In similar fashion Thomas Paine
wrote:
"Society in every state is a
blessing, but government even in its
best state is but a necessary evil
in its worst state an in tolerable
one; for when we suffer, or are
exposed to the same miseries by a
government, which we might expect in
a country without government, our
calamities is heightened by
reflecting that we furnish the means
by which we suffer!"
-- and of course the immortal
words:
"That government is best which
governs least".
Then there is the statement
attributed to Thomas Jefferson,
Barry Goldwater and Gerald Ford:
"A government big enough to give you
everything you want, is big enough
to take away everything you have".
Those who support the tenets
of Big Government, Socialism,
Communism, and Theocracies, will be
born into regimes where they will
not possess the necessary Freedom
and Liberty to achieve their full
potential.
Without the essential knowledge of the Natural Laws that are the motivating
force of the Causal-Factors of your life, you will continue to dwell in abject
confusion -- forced to interpret the events of life as chance, an accident, good
fortune, the stoke of good or bad luck, and even an act of God. Yet, when
the Causal-Factors are understood, nothing could be farther from the Truth.
Everyone's life is pre-destined and orchestrated by the Causal-Factors based
upon each Soul's own previous actions -- i.e.,
"Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a
man sows, that he will also reap" (Gal 6:7 NKJ). Which
reality is confirmed in the profound statement by the Church Father Origen:
“Every soul...
comes into this world strengthened by the victories or weakened by the defeats
of its previous life” (Origen, De Principiis).
Origen then goes on and writes with respect to each person's station in life
"...that the cause of each one's actions is
a pre-existing one; and then every one, according to his deserts, is made by God
either a vessel unto honor or dishonor. Therefore every individual vessel
[person] has furnished to its Creator out of itself the causes and occasions of
its being formed by Him to be either a vessel unto honor or one unto dishonor."
And, as stated in the foregoing, each person's birth into
this life is determined by that person's own past actions -- i.e.,
"...either a vessel unto
honor or one unto dishonor".
Without understanding the Natural Laws that act as a Living Bio-Feedback
Organism -- initiating Causal-Factors both positive and negative in response to
all the events of life -- it is impossible for the mind to evolve beyond a
certain level of comprehension. If you look upon the events of your life
as fate, chance, good fortune, the luck of the draw, an accident or the Will of
God, then there simply is no way to understand the events of the life you are
living. Further, unless you understand the Natural Law of Wholeness, and
why each person sees and interprets
the realities of life from a
different and often conflicting
perspective as explored at
The Enigma
Of The Segmented Mind
http://OuterDarkness.Nazirene.org#SegmentedMind
, then you will not understand why
these many differences are the very
means by which each person is able
to overcome their own limitations,
and escape what is allegorically
portrayed in the Tower of Babel
Syndrome. And without
understanding these Natural Laws, it
will remain virtually impossible for
you to evolve beyond the Natural
Organic Human Limitations of Mind
which the biblical authors portray
as lower
"animal-consciousness"
(see
Animal-Soul
http://AnInconvenientTruth.org#animal
) -- incapable of comprehending
man's higher Soul and Spiritual
Natures.
Thus, because
the mind of natural man lacks the necessary understanding to
develop beyond an organic human level, there is no basis for the use of true Reason
and Intellect in a world-view paradigm where everything is the result of chance.
And in such a world-view paradigm it is virtually impossible to understand the
true reality and purpose of the life that mankind is presently living. In
contradistinction, if you are cognizant of the reality that every event is
driven by the Laws of Creation -- and the event has a Causal-Factor that is
initiated by a previous action -- then if you understand the workings, purpose
and objectives of the Laws, then you are able to begin to exercise control over
the life mankind is living. And if you understand that the man Jesus arose to
the absolute level of human achievement by fulfilling the Law within his own
mind and being -- and that each person has this same potential -- then the
knowledge and understanding of the Natural Laws of Creation is essential and
paramount in the life of anyone who desires to achieve their Ultimate Destiny.
And where the Theist who believes that their life is the result of accidents and
chance encounters, and salvation is a gift regardless of their actions, simply
has no means to understand the true reality of the life they are living.
On the other hand, if a person understands that the Laws of Creation respond to
their every word and action -- and they begin to observe the Natural Laws
working in their life -- such a person can very quickly begin to advance and
achieve what is virtually impossible for the person who remains ignorant of the
Natural Laws.
Organic Man only utilizes a fraction of his true mental resources. And
the higher spheres and centers of man's mind and consciousness can only become
active and usably manifest, when they are properly stimulated and developed.
Different centers of mind are vivified and activated by different stimulations.
So long as the paradigm of one's thinking remains founded upon the thinking that
one's life is being orchestrated by accidental and chance encounters, then it
will remain impossible for the higher spheres and centers of the mind to become
active. On the other hand, if one begins to achieve a connected wholeness
in their thinking and observations of life -- understanding that every event has
a past initiating factor that is intended to bring about future change and
results, then one's present actions begins to embody dimensions of reality that
provides the person the ability to make change and take control of their life.
In a simplified example: The ability to do Math or Language are drawn from
different areas of the mind. Moreover, those areas of mind must be
nurtured, evolved and matured, in order to become competent in these areas of
human expression. Music and the arts draws upon still different areas of
the mind -- and these areas must be evolved and matured one level at a time.
The same is also true with respect to developing those centers and spheres of
mind that are able to comprehend man's higher Soul-Reality. Someone
who dwells in a foundational paradigm of thinking where events are the result of
accident and chance encounters, cannot develop those areas of mind that are
cognizant of man's higher reality. Because they lack the mental connection
that past words and/or actions have orchestrated present events that are
designed to bring about future results and experiences, no intellectual
development can take place. It isn't until the person understands that
previous actions in conjunction with the Laws of Creation have initiated the
present events that are intended to bring about a future development, that the
higher areas of mind can be stimulated to evolve and mature.
What must be added into the equation of self-development is the knowledge
that each of us is an expression of our True or Soul-Self that dwells in a
twelve-dimensional higher reality that we are a three-dimensional expression of.
Why can't our True-Self manifest in our physical body? Because a
twelve-dimensional Being cannot manifest in a three-dimensional realm -- and
must therefore generate an embryo of Self that has the capacity and ability to
develop to Wholeness and Fullness. And that we can only break down the
wall of separation between the three-dimensional person we are in this world,
with our twelve-dimensional True-Self, when we embrace the process of mental
expansion and deepening that enables us to fully connect with our True-Self (see
Achieving Wholeness of Mind & Being
http://TreeOfLife.Nazirene.org#wholeness ). If the
higher centers and spheres of mind are never stimulated and developed -- and we
remain ignorant of the Natural Laws that initiate Causal Factors into the
Present that are intended to bring about a future Result -- and we are never
exposed to the higher reality that we are a three-dimensional being that is the
expression of our higher twelve-dimensional Self -- then we will remain mentally
and spiritually flat-lined.
On the Pandeism page of the Wikipedia it states of Giordano Bruno:
"Italian
theologian Giordano Bruno was charged with heresy and burned at the stake for
propounding what has been deemed by some commentators to be a pandeistic
ideology." What made Giordano Bruno an Enlightened Deist? His intimate knowledge
of the Natural Laws that are personified in the words, the Laws of Nature and
Nature's God. Bruno understood what modern physicists are only now confirming
with respect to the shadow-images of Plato's Cave and the necessity of
developing the Intuitive spheres of mind to develop the ability of Anamnesis --
i.e., The Innate Knowledge Of The Truth Of All Truths:
http://AnInconvenientTruth.org#Innate
-- when he stated that "Within every man there is a soul-flame, kindled at the
sun of thought, which lends us wings whereby we may approach the sun of
knowledge." Openly acknowledging that the vast majority of mankind totally
ignores this inner Source of Superior Knowledge when he stated:
"The Divine
Light is always in man, presenting itself to the senses and to the
comprehension, but man rejects it" And it is easily demonstrated that the Church
corrupted the Gospels in order to suppress the teachings on how the Inner Light
of Knowledge must be the seekers ONLY TEACHER (see The True Prophet
http://OuterDarkness.Nazirene.org#TrueProphet
). What the Deist portrays as this Source of Inner Knowledge, is always
suppressed by Revealed Religion and priest-craft, because those who develop the
ability to tap into and learn from the Inner Light, do not need a faux-teacher
of this world -- wherefore, they have no use of traditional religion.
In order to understand the Natural Laws and the Causal Factors of Life, it is
absolutely necessary to understand what Giordano Bruno stated with respect to
the Soul of mankind in the statement of fact: "The soul is not the body and it
may be in one body or in another, and pass from body to body". And in order to
understand the Clock-Maker Universe, the person must understand the words of
Bruno when he stated that "The divine perfection of the individual soul is the
aim of all progression". And that this individual soul-progression is
accomplished by the Natural Laws as personified in the words of Bruno when he
stated that "Every act performed [by man] brings its appropriate reward or
punishment in another life. In proportion as the soul has conducted itself in a
body, it determines for itself its transition into another body." Which affirms
the statement of the Church Father Origen when 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). Which means that the Causal
Factors of the conditions we entered into this life, as well as all that we
experience in life, has all been orchestrated by our own Soul's actions in the
previous lives our Soul has lived. God does therefore not intervene in the
affairs of man, because the Natural Laws that God put into effect is in control
of each person's development -- and that each person can change their condition
in life, by embracing the Natural Laws and fulfilling them in their daily life.
At a certain point in our
development we begin to understand
that God is not an old man with a
beard -- and even our own Higher
Soul-Self that is a Being of Light
(see
http://BeingOfLight.com ), is a
Being of Pure Intellect,
Intelligence and a Godly Expression
of Love. And in order to understand
why the Deists sought the Knowledge
of the Natural Laws of Creation, it
is important to begin to understand
man's true relationship to God. Quoting from: The Soul - Thomas Paine's Rights Of Man And Emerson's Oversoul
http://SoulSelf.org#RightsOfMan
:
While Emerson is known as the father of Transcendentalism, he is also known as a
Deist -- but by definition, it has been noted that Pythagoras, Plato and Jesus can
also be defined as a
Deist. But of ultra interest is the statement in the book on Emerson where it is
written: "Emerson gives his argument a special twist at this point since his
first sentence also alludes to Paine's Rights of Man. Arguing for the rights of
men over the rights of institutions and government, he recalls Paine's claims
for the sacred rights of the individual. Like Emerson, Paine's 'motive and
subject -- as he describes it in a letter of 1806 to John Inskeep, the mayor of
Philadelphia -- had always been 'to rescue man from the tyranny and false
systems and false principles of government, and enable him to be free.'" (see
Nature's Archives - p. 114). While it is noted that this exposé portrays
Emerson's thesis on the Oversoul as perhaps his most important work, it is also
noted that very little useable information is provided to the reader. And
because of the great importance of this higher reality, this present work is
intended to fill in the great void with respect to the higher reality of the
soul of man that few religions or philosophies today have any real understanding
of.
Ralph Waldo Emerson, like many of the early American Gnostics, was a Deist.
Quoting the Wikipedia: "The Oversoul is
an essay by Ralph Waldo Emerson, first
published in 1841. The broad subject of the essay, considered one of
Emerson's
best, is the human soul. Several general themes are treated: (1) the
existence
and nature of the human soul; (2) the relationship between the soul and
the
personal ego; (3) the relationship of one human soul to another; and (4)
the
relationship of the human soul to God. Influence of Eastern religions,
including Vedantism, is plainly evident, but the essay also develops
ideas long present in
the Western tradition, e.g., in the works of Plato, Plotinus, and
Emmanuel
Swedenborg. The essay attempts no systematic doctrine, but rather serves
as a
work of art, something like poetry. Its virtue is in personal insights
of the
author and the lofty manner of their presentation. Emerson wishes to
exhort and
direct the reader to an awakening of similar thoughts or sentiments.
With
respect to the four themes listed above, the essay presents the
following views:
(1) the human soul is immortal, and immensely vast and beautiful; (2)
our
conscious ego is slight and limited in comparison to the soul, despite
the fact
that we habitually mistake our ego for our true self; (3) at some level,
the
souls of all people are connected, though the precise manner and degree
of this
connection is not spelled out; and (4) the essay does not seem to
explicitly
contradict the traditional Western idea that the soul is created by and
has an
existence that is similar to God, or rather God exists within us. This
idea was
later adopted by many religions."
Take notice of the above statement: "...at some level, the souls of all people
are connected, though the precise manner and degree of this connection is not
spelled out" -- and when the Cosmology of Mind is understood, it is seen that
what Emerson was missing was an understanding of the Matrix of the Soul (see
Man As An Embryonic Soul-Image
http://SoulSelf.org#EmbryonicSoulImage ) -- and holographically, this same Matrix of the
Soul also exists on a higher level within the Matrix of the Logos (Mind of God ).
Other quotes by Emerson on the soul of man is seen in the words:
"The soul comes
from without into the human body, as into a temporary abode, and it goes out of
it anew it passes into other habitations, for the soul is immortal." And again:
"It is the secret of the world that all things subsist and do not die, but only
retire a little from sight and afterwards return again. Nothing is dead; men
feign themselves dead, and endure mock funerals… and there they stand looking
out of the window, sound and well, in some strange new disguise."
—Ralph Waldo
Emerson.
In the Gospel of Thomas saying 84 (see Man As An Embryonic Soul-Image ), man is
portrayed as a projected image of the soul -- and in the same way that all the
previous images of the soul-self that lived in all the lifetimes that the soul
has lived are all dwelling within the Matrix of the Soul, all the souls who are
portrayed as the Soul-Self and the True Being that each of us is, all dwell
within the Matrix of the Logos (Mind of God). Holographically, in the same way
that the soul is the sum total of all the lifetimes that it has lived, the Logos
(Mind of God) is the sum total of all the experiences of all the souls that came
into existence since the beginning of Creation -- and thus, all of Creation is
evolving and moving from the Alpha of ignorance to the Omega of Enlightened
Light. But to begin to understand why Deism places such high emphasis on
understanding the Laws of Nature,
you must understand your own
relationship as a three-dimensional
soul-generated image, to your
twelve-dimensional Soul-Self, and
your Soul-Self's relationship to
God.
Not
until we understand that mankind is
presently dwelling in a realm of
Duality -- where opposite polarities
of the same consciousness can and
must interact with each other in
order to evolve to Wholeness -- then
it must be understood that when an
action is initiated, a corresponding
action is initiated in the opposite
polarity. In the same way that the
contraction of the two atna chambers
of the heart initiate the
contraction in the ventricles, in
this divided reality every action
initiates a reactive-action in its
opposite polarity. Which means that
every word, and every action you
make, initiates an opposite polarity
action that MUST BE BALANCED IN THE
CENTER OF THE TREE OF LIFE. When
balance and wholeness is achieved,
then growth and development is
brought about. When the active and
reflective opposites cannot be
balanced, then the action becomes
externalized -- which in the parable
of the prodigal son, is portrayed as
the squandering away of the
inheritance on "riotous living".
But because the loss or
externalization is imprinted with
what can be portrayed as the imprint
of our Spiritual DNA, it must return
back to us -- and this process can
and does continue until Wholeness
and Completion is achieved.
We
cannot even begin to envision the
above process without first
understanding the connection that
exists between all of mankind and
all of Creation. An important
overlooked and not understood Bible
passage states in reference to the
Higher Reality of God that mankind
is blind to:
“‘For in him
we live and move and have our
being.’ As some of your own poets
have said, ‘We are his offspring’”
(Acts 17:28
NIV). If we indeed
"...live
and move and have our being"
within God, then
what is our true relationship to
God? When we put the foregoing
together with the statement by James
Jeans that:
“...the
universe begins to look more like a
great thought than like a great
machine”.
Or the words of Arthur
Eddington:
“The stuff
of the universe is mind-stuff”.
What is portrayed is a higher
reality that few people are even
prepared to contemplate -- much
less, understand with sufficient
degree to even form a realistic
opinion.
An
Enlightened person who understands
the Natural Laws of Creation,
understands that God is not a being
who is separate from man -- but is
the very Consciousness within which
we move and have out being. Perhaps
one of the best teachings (which was
removed from the canonical Gospels
by the Church, has been preserved in
the outlawed
Gospel of the Nazirenes,
and is known as the parable of the
fishes (quoting):
"And there
were certain men, of doubtful mind,
who came to Jesus, and said to him,
You tell us that our life and being
comes from God, but we have never
seen God, nor do we know of any God.
Can you show us whom you call the
Father-Mother, one God? We don't
know if there is a God. Jesus
answered them, saying, Hear this
parable of the fishes. The fishes of
a certain river communed with one
another, saying, they tell us that
our life and being is from water,
but we have never seen water, we
don't know what it is. Then some
among them, wiser than the rest,
said, We have heard there dwells in
the sea a wise and learned fish, who
knows all things. Let us journey to
him, and ask him to show us what
water is. So several of them set out
to find this great and wise fish,
and they came at last to the sea
where in the wise fish dwelt, and
they asked of him. And when he heard
them he said to them, O you foolish
fish that don't contemplate! The few
of you who seek, are wise. You live,
and move, and have your being in the
water; from the water you came, to
the water you return. You live in
the water, yet you don't know it.'
In a similar manner, you live in
God, and yet you ask of me, 'Show us
God.' God is in all things, and all
things are in God."
If
mankind dwells within the Mind of
God, then what inhibits him from
Knowing all that God Knows?
The answer is the Natural Laws that
place a barrier between us and our
Source -- i.e., our Higher Soul-Self
-- and the Source of our Soul which
is the Logos (Mind of God).
Enlightened Deists who understand
the Natural Laws, are able to tap
into the Higher Mind of both the
Soul and the Logos, by fulfilling
and prevailing over the limitations
of the Natural Laws that divide and
separate us -- which limitations can
only be overcome by achieving
Wholeness (see
Wholeness
of Mind & Being
http://TreeOfLife.Nazirene.org#wholeness
). With respect to achieving
Wholeness, Jesus portrayed himself
as a physician when he stated:
"They that are
whole have no need of the physician,
but they that are sick: I came not
to call the righteous, but sinners
to repentance"
(Mark 2:17). Which means that
Jesus himself acknowledged that
others achieved Wholeness without
his assistance as a physician, and
that anyone who achieves Wholeness
can open up a conduit between
themselves and the Indwelling Logos,
and accomplish all that the
historical man Jesus accomplished.
But it will remain virtually
impossible to bring about this
Wholeness, without understanding the
Natural Laws of Creation.
When
PanDeist Giordano Bruno stated that
"Within every man there is a
soul-flame, kindled at the sun of
thought, which lends us wings
whereby we may approach the sun of
knowledge", he
was making reference to the source
of Higher Knowledge of both his
Soul-Self and the Indwelling Logos.
When Bruno stated
"The Divine Light is always in
man, presenting itself to the senses
and to the comprehension, but man
rejects it",
what he was stating was that organic
man is so mesmerized by the outward
illusions that modern science has
recognized as the illusions of
Plato's Cave (see
Plato -
The Physicist
http://KnowThySelf.Nazirene.org#Plato
), that their mental and spiritual
development becomes flat-lined.
And that only those who understand
the Natural Laws are able to achieve
the necessary Wholeness that enables
them to utilize the process of
Anamnesis
- enabling
then to begin to tap into the inner
source of
Knowledge Of The Truth Of All
Truths:
http://AnInconvenientTruth.org#Innate
. That those who are
able to prevail over the Laws, and
achieve Wholeness, are able to learn
directly from the Indwelling Logos
as they become Enlightened by an
Anointed (Messiah/Christ) of the
Mind. As stated:
"The
anointing you received from Him
remains in you, and you don't need
anyone to teach you. Instead, His
anointing teaches you about all
things and is true and is not a lie;
just as He has taught you, remain in
Him" (1 John
2:27). The
Deists who had overcome the Natural
Laws that require Wholeness to
prevail over organic human
limitations, did not need either an
academic teacher or a savior
promoted by Revealed Religion,
because as a person overcomes the
Natural Laws and begins to tap into
the what Giordano Bruno portrayed as
the Divine Light within the mind of
all of mankind, the Anointing of the
Inner Light of Higher Consciousness
taught and revealed to them the
Truth of all things. And
from the Divine Light they learned
the functioning of the Natural Laws
as manifest in the Clock-Maker
Universe -- the reality of the
evolving Soul over the course of
many lifetimes a stated by Bruno:
"The soul
is not the body and it may be in one
body or in another, and pass from
body to body"
-- and the purpose of the Natural
Laws as manifest in the Clock-Maker
Universe was, in the words of Bruno,
"The divine perfection of the
individual soul is the aim of all
progression".
And the Universe as a Living
Bio-Feedback Organism, in the words
of Bruno evolves the Soul by
returning to each Soul the fruit of
their own words and action --
"Every act performed brings its
appropriate reward or punishment in
another life. In proportion as the
soul has conducted itself in a body,
it determines for itself its
transition into another body."
Why didn't the
Enlightened Deists such as Thomas
Paine and Jefferson openly talk
about their personal knowledge of
their Soul's previous lives?
If they did, they would have been
rejected by the vast majority of
Christians in their endeavor to
create a government that would usher
in the necessary personal freedoms
and God-Given Right to bring about a
condition of Enlightenment and
Exceptionalism (see
The Deists And American
Exceptionalism
http://ThomasPaineRedux.com#AmericanExceptionalism
). And it was this
foundational Constitutional
Government that was necessary to
restore the Original Gospel
Teachings (
http://OriginalGospel.Ebionite.com
), that would enable mankind to
overcome the limits of the Natural
Laws and the constraints of organic
human consciousness. Thus,
Thomas Paine, Jefferson and others
were given important glimpses into
their Soul's previous lives, and an
understanding of the Rights of Man
as the divine offspring to
Creator-God.
