No ONE order or religion has all the answers – if they did, we’d all be following it. Each belief/religion has some truth, and all have some of the same truth. The sum of all of the truths is still insufficient. You must stay open and prepared to learn. Life, after all, is a learning experience. If you’re not learning/growing, you’re dying. To stop the search, to think your creed/belief/religion is the end all, to accept blindly what “others” tell you is the greatest Sin – willful ignorance. Remain open to new knowledge and understanding. Some “Religions” are thousands of years old, have learned and documented many truths, and yet we use less than 6% of our human-machine Brain capabilities, Why? Seek truth and understanding. As new theories are presented, look at them from where they came, and from every angle to discern the truth. The truth will set you free. The problem is you will no doubt need to kick holes in your mythical screens (programming) once in a while in order to let some new “light” in (enlightenment?). Always remember, the “new light” becomes part of your filter. Have faith the data you collect will be processed through your computation system, then processed in respect to everyone else’s data bank, and then by the Universal Data bank – Main Frame. The resultant feedback is the real truth (how we filter and perceive it is what modifies it). We can access this data, if we become sensitive to and open to the “feedback loop” our intuition. Our problem is quieting the conscious mind so the “We Small Voice” can be heard.

Did you ever wonder how it is people reading the same book “The Word of God,” could end up at war with each other? Did it ever seem strange that each different “religion” purported there way was “the only true way to Heaven” and all other beliefs were “of the Devil”. Sides are drawn and prejudices established on whether you “dunk” or “sprinkle” for baptism. Inter-religious marriages are cause for grave concern. Did you ever wonder if you were “going to make it?” Have you ever met anyone who has “made it?” It would seem, with all these thousands of years of trial and error, someone would have gotten “it” right. It’s my contention, if the preachers, gurus, mullahs and shaman were doing their job right, they would have preached themselves out of a “job” a long time ago. If you can pray direct to God, as the bible says we can, what do you need a preacher for? If you can read the bible and/or other “Holy” books, and your God is as big and powerful as the bible says he/she/it is, can’t God guide you? Or is it the “preachers” have just figured out a slick way of making a living? Are they giving you just enough to keep you hooked, but not enough to get your own Spiritual Switches Turned-on so you can communicate directly with God/the Spiritual World. This means they get 10% of what you bust your ass for – the bible says so, and they can sure quote you those verses. Have you been getting better down through the years, or worse. How is your health, wealth, success, marriage, family? And why are the fanciest buildings in town the churches . . . And they pay no taxes.

No Question In My Mind

 

I am about to write some things that I KNOW are truth. How I know, and whether I care to prove them does not alter the fact that I KNOW they are true. We have all lived past lives. If we don’t get it right in this life time, our Soul will have future lives. It could be – based on quantum physics – that we’re in fact living all of these life times at the same time.

There is Life after Life/death/transition, and there is no guilt for the Soul on the other side.

You have built-in survival reactions to stimuli, meant to protect you – they have become quite convoluted over time.

Your expectations, perspectives and perceptions are based on myth or belief, which may be interfering with you getting what you want. You are responsible for yourself – only. You make 100% correct decisions – mistakes are a result of incorrect or incomplete data or emotional sabotage. You must accept yourself as you are and take responsibility before you’re able to change. Our Beliefs are Our Limitations!

A basic rule to live by is: Avoid hurting yourself or others physically. (The Emotional part is their emotions.) Attitude, personality and character changes are possible, and up to you. You must learn to “go with the flow” - "bend with the wind" and then physical occurrences and environmental conditions will have less effect on you. You can conceptualize your future, program it into your subconscious, add emotional power, focus, use restraint and it will become reality.

It is your job to deprogram habits, beliefs, and myths by reprogramming mental perceptions. Everyone has Spiritual awareness, it can and should be expanded – it will make your life much easier. We haven’t even begun to utilize the tremendous Brain-energy, Bio-energy, Mind (Spiritual) energy, Emotional energy and Spiritual Power available to us.

In The Beginning

 

During our first years of growing-up, we were rewarded for learning. Learning was fun. Learning was what we were all about. We collected data from all our senses, learned to walk, to talk, to eat, what hot was, and a billion other bits of data. We were learning machines. We were curious, encouraged at every turn and perfect for which stage of life we were in.

Then we went to school, and found out we were “screwed up,” it was not OK to experiment, make mistakes and learn. We were evaluated, compared, and categorized on everything we did. We were expected to know things we had no data base on, and were graded and/or “punished” if we made an error. They never found out if we learned from the error. In effect our learning switches were “turned off,” so we could be “educated.” Basically we were being “molded” to fit into society to play a given role based on our database and how we used it – to continue slavery – indentured servitude. Through propaganda, we have been given a society “Myth” to live by. We were taught there is something wrong with us, which needs to be fixed. Even worse, we were given no hope of ever being able to change our basic personality. We were doomed by society through the educators to less of a productive life than we are capable.

Along with the myths, came the “rules and laws” with consequences to allow society to control us. Now guilt, shame and fear could be used as the lever to get us to conform. We end up living in the negative, slaves to the bankers, society and religionists, being told what to do at every turn. If we rebel, they use coercion, guilt and shame to “force” obedience to their “Laws.”

We are not losers! We are winners! We are survivors! There are male and female versions of this machine – each filling a specific role. We can explode on the scene if we take a positive attitude, and refuse to buy into the programming, habits and myths we have been taught by others.

Children, because they are so vulnerable in size and data base, can be taken advantage of and programmed easily. They have the right to even more protection than adults. Any adult that takes advantage of a child – should be eliminated – in public. A child given a rich learning environment is happy and excited about life. A child that is put down, made fun of, abused, molested, raped, drugged or forced in any way by an adult is being denied their inalienable rights. Worse yet, they have no defense. It is adults who are providing the drugs to our children. Just because someone fathers or mothers a child, does not mean they’re “good” parents.

Christian Religion History

 

Birth of Jesus – year 0 – Celebrated worldwide by our calendar

Jesus was a Jew, sent by “God” to “save” the Jews. When the Jews rejected him, it was then OK to “save” the gentiles – other than Jews.

NOTE: BC = before Christ – AD = after death – Jesus lived approximately 33 years. Jesus was born and before his birth is BC. Jesus died and after his death is AD. We're already missing 33 years. It was many years after Jesus’ death before the current calendar was created. So the following dates are “approximates.”

The Two Branches of Judaism:

  • Pharisees – (Fair you see) – good works = life after death
  • Sadducees – (Sad you see) – live, die, that’s all = no life after death

The Jewish Apostles of Jesus continue his teachings and Spiritual Demonstrations

To believe in the Bible and Jesus as the Messiah, you have to believe in reincarnation – Because Elijah reincarnated as John the Babbtist.

The Message was passed-down in the Oral Tradition (a telephone game?)

The first written Apostolic works became available – 80AD (50 years after Jesus’ death)

Water Blessing (Holy Water) – 120AD

Cult of Saints – 200AD

Infant Baptism – 250AD

Baptism Clinic – 251AD

NOTE: Some splits in the “church” came over “sprinkling” vs. “dunking” Baptism

In 325AD, The Roman Emperor Constantine, a Pagan idol worshiper (Sun God & Isis – Goddess of Fertility), commissions the Holy Bible – The Word of God – to be assembled from “selected” (not all of them – over 180 books/writings were considered) written works of the day – primarily the Jewish Old Testament and the New Testament writings/letters of the Jewish Apostles. The “agenda” was to establish peace and control the growing population through integration of the Pagan and Christian beliefs. The Bible is God’s Word . . . written by men with an agenda and integrated with Pagan Gods. Where are the Jesus, chapters 1, 2 & 3?

Confirmation – 400AD

Establishment of the Roman Catholic Church - Catholic Church Edicts Christian Church Establishment. (Bold indicates Catholic Church Specifically)

Second Council of Constantine – 553
NOTE: Reincarnation “cursed” by the Council of Bishops – and most references removed from the Bible.

Beginning of the Popes – 606

Cult of Images and Relics – 787 (Graven Images?)

Clergy Celibacy – 1190

(NOTE: In 1861 this group was named Protestants - because they protested against Catholicism)

Confirmation 1215 

Transubstantiation – 1245 

Purgatory – relatives “buy you out” – 1439

NOTE: In 1861 this group was named Protestants, because they protested against Catholicism.
Luther - 1517 (German Catholic Priest)
NOTE: Pay in advance for sins not yet committed spurred Martin Luther. He was the first one to interrupt the Bible from Latin into German and make it available to the general public so they could read it for themselves – if they could read. The Gutenburg Printing Press made possible the mass production of Bibles.

Anglican – 1535
NOTE: Is the Church of England the King James Version of the Bible

Reform – 1536

Liveres Apocraphes – Inquisition – 1545-63

Baptist – 1607

Methodist – 1739

Mormons (Later Day Saints) – 1830

Seventh Day Adventist – 1844

Immaculate Conception 1854
NOTE: All sects/religions now teach Immaculate Conception.

Infallibility of the Pope – (a God?) –1870

Jehovah’s Witnesses – 1875

Pentecostal – 1898

Thousands of other Beliefs/sects

Ascension of Mary (no death) – 1950

Catholic Church in a Tome officially "forgives" the Jews for crucifying Jesus 1990 

NOTE: churches even split over God, Son, Holy Ghost – one in the same or three entities.

All these religions, beliefs and edicts are based on the same “Word of God” written to integrate existing belief systems, i.e. Sun God Worship – on Sunday and Isis the Fertility Goddess = Mary w/ child and to incorporate “images/idols” – Jesus on the cross and Mary with child. It was then interpreted into different languages, revised (different versions – meanings), up-dated and interpreted by men with different viewpoints, different agendas, driven by greed and power with one basic focus –Crowd Control. All religions are based on a definition of God formulated from mans’ attributes of: ego, greed, control, manifest destiny, caste system and slavery.

If any one of these Christian Religion “beliefs” had “IT” right, wouldn’t it seem reasonable we would all believe the “same” way? What about all the other religious beliefs, are they all wrong? Some are tens of thousands of years older than the Bible. Did God only send emissaries to the Jews? Did God quit “talking” to people 2,000 years ago? Why, when all the different “Christian” (Christ-like) religions base their beliefs on the same “basic” Bible (or version there of) – The Word of God – do they believe that all the other religious sects’/cults’/churches’ believers, using the same Bible are wrong and going to hell? Why do the “Christians,” basing their beliefs on the Jewish written works, believe Jews need to convert or they’re going to hell? Why do “Christians” believe they’re the only ones who can receive guidance from the Spirit world (God)? Why do “Christians” believe all non-Christians are going to hell? Aren’t Heaven and Hell (Dante’s Inferno) here on earth, and just a figment of our imagination – the carrot and stick to set us up to be controlled by religion?

The Environment Shapes What You Learn/Believe

 

Our (Soul) wrote the script and “chose” to be born.

We learned what we believe, based on Family – Culture – Race – Religion – Education –Work – Friends – Nature, because it was repeated enough times (22-54) to create a belief, myth, habit, program – which results in automatic reactions to stimuli. The Nature of Spiritual Law and Brain Pre-Programming “Prove” what YOU BELIEVE TO BE TRUETO BE TRUE FOR YOU – however, you may be the only one to believe what you believe.

Infinite Possibilities

 

The “Extremes” of everything provide input and offer our Will . . . Choices.

Yin(light/good/love/pro) – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - -Yang(dark/bad/fear/con)

Where on the Yin/Yang Scale of infinite possibilities (quantum physics) you chose to operate/function, is the result of your choices and willingness to accept responsibility. Without the extremes, there is no choice and no experiment. You may evaluate and modify your behavior based on a simple criteria – Works or Doesn’t Work. If it Works – adopt it and continue to improve your behavior. If what you have “learned/been taught” Doesn’t Work, you must re-learn and change or be recycled – die. What you become, how you behave, is a personal choice and your own responsibility! Your choice is CONstruction or DEstruction.

Meaning of Life

 

Have experiences, learn from those experiences and change your behavior. The only thing you can depend on is change. Change = Life – Refusal to Change = Death.

Life Mission

 

Learn, change and leave behind your legacy of positive Behavioral Changes – Personality and Character development with improvement towards an ideal God/Spirit-Like being.

Life Purpose

 

Evolve by changing your behavior for the positive and comprehend the “oneness” of all that is Universe Wide. Through this paradigm shift, use your own personal “Gifts” to help advance the Spiritual aspects of the human life experience and the balanced, sustained-yield of Nature.

The “Scientific” approach to “God”

 

Natural Laws: Zoological, Biological, Psychological, Physiological, Physics, Chemistry, Atomic Theory, Quantum Physics, Universal View, Philosophical, Realistic, and human attributes (the self) – how Mother Nature works.

The Universal Laws: Work for every living organism. Humans have “forgotten” their spiritual heritage and violate the Universal Laws and wonder why adverse things happen. The Universal Laws – a book in progress, which provides definitions and explanations of these Universal Laws and how to use them effectively.

God Theory/Explanation

 

How BIG is your God?
At which “level” of God/Spirit, involved in the universal experiment, do you believe, function, worship?
Explanation in the Channeled Book By: Lance Rennka, Ed.D. Body/Brain – Soul/Mind – Cooperation or War – Your Choice

Conversations With God

 

Summary of The New Revelations

The Conversations with God Foundation

(541) 482-8806 www.cwg.org

“We were given three basic tools – Understanding, Ability and Will. Will is the final element in every choice-making process. It is the ultimate tool of creation. Where there is a Will, there is a way. Without the Will we can do nothing.”

“For all that I have said about the past will become part of the past the moment you decide that you are the future. That in your mind lies the wisdom, that in your heart lies the love and that in your soul lies the truth that will set your world free.”

“Self-Realization. To realize the Self at the next highest level. To know who you really are, and to experience that. That is called evolution.”

“Who you are and how you are, affects the world to a much larger degree than you might imagine. Yet remember this, you cannot achieve inner peace by being agitated if you do not achieve outer peace.”

“You must decide if you are going to be DEstructive or CONstructive.”

The Five Steps to Peace

1. We acknowledge that certain old beliefs about Life and about God are no longer working.

2. We acknowledge that there is something we do not understand about God and Life, the understanding of which could change everything.

3. We are willing for new understandings of God and Life to now be brought forth, understandings that could produce a new way of life on this planet.

4. We are willing to explore and examine these new understandings, and, if they align with our inner truth and knowing, to enlarge our belief system to include them.

5. We are willing to live our lives as a demonstration of our beliefs.

The New Revelations:

1. God has never stopped communicating directly with human beings. God has been communicating with and through human beings from the beginning of time. God does so today.
2. Every human being is as special as every other human being who has ever lived, lives now or ever will live. You are all messengers. Every one of you. You are carrying a message to life about life everyday. Every hour. Every moment.
3. No path to God is more direct than any other path. No religion is “the one true religion,” no people are the “chosen people,” and no prophet is the “greatest prophet.”
4. God needs nothing. God requires nothing in order to be happy. God is happiness itself. Therefore, God requires nothing of anyone or anything in the universe.
5. God is not a singular Super Being, living somewhere in the Universe or outside of it, having the same emotional needs and subject to the same emotional turmoil as humans. That which is God cannot not be hurt or damaged in any way, and so, has no need to seek revenge or impose punishment.
6. All things are One Thing. There is only One Thing, and all things are part of the One Thing That Is. Everything is just Spiritual energy.
7. There is no such thing as Right or Wrong. There is only What Works and What Does Not Work, depending upon what it is that you seek to be, do, or have.
8. You are not your body. Who you are, is limitless and without end.
9. You cannot die, and you will never be condemned to eternal damnation.

Here are very different but extremely important questions you must ask yourself:
1. What do you want to BE (personality and character)?
2. What do you want to DO (work & fun)?
3. What do you want to HAVE (toys and possessions)?

Within the framework of these three factors, you will create your life experiences and your character.

Numerology and Kabilarian Philosophy

Birth date determines your general purpose – reason for being – and there are nine general categories of human activity to cause societies to function.

Name determines your “destiny” every day experiences – how you are – the choices you make.

Cyclic – 9 day – 9 cycles – nine years – etc.

Spiritual in this text in no way is to be interpreted as meaning “Religion”.

The Spiritual side of what we are – It is estimated that less than 1% of what we are, is what we see – the body.

Your life motto – GOD through YOU a benefit to MANKIND – one to all – your ideal – your spiritual ideal, your criteria/reason for existing.

Souls – Operators

 

Live forever – have a fundamental identity with the universal “Oversoul.” Are along for the ride. Are in communications with the other Souls and Spirit Realm.

Definitions

RELIGION – Crowd control

GOD – The Cosmic Joker – she’s black - way beyond what you've been taught

SATAN – Fear – negative emotions

HELL – Guilt & Shame – others in control of you

SIN – Refusal to learn – ignorance, looping

HEAVEN – Joy, fun, happiness, peace – positive emotions

RIGHTS – Possessions – free from coercion, fraud, force

ETERNAL LIFE – Regeneration – live long enough to figure it out

LOVE – Wanting yourself and others to grow spiritually = behavioral change. To learn = behavior modification = change = evolution.

PRAYER – Positive affirmations – questions as requests for data, understanding and direction only

CONFESSION – Admitting what happened – taking responsibility for your actions so you can change.

Spiritual Certainties

 

There is a God – universal Intelligence, the I Am, All Power, The Force, Devine, Cosmic Joker – and she’s black (or any other color you need her to be) – anything but what you now think.

There have been many “Prophets,” guides, Angles, messengers, Avatars in the past, the present and into the future. They will continue being sent until we get it right.

We have a spiritual side to us – it has had no beginning and has no end – eternity – infinity. It is a part of the whole. We are a part of God = Gods = Communication. To each of us our own Spiritual awareness based on our willingness to listen and receive.

Life Is

 

This life on earth is an infinitesimal experience in the overall eternal experiences of our individual Soul and other Souls to the whole Universal Intelligence/God.

There are certain things the Soul is here to experience through the senses of this body and we are “predestined” to travel a path of experiences. How we travel that path, where we travel that path, with whom, and how well off we are is up to us – through our Choices and Will Power. Thank God for Adam, Eve, The serpent, and apples.

Life is a spiritual learning experience, and there is only one rule – the Golden Rule. The single most important aspect of this rule is “Love Thyself”. Without that, everything breaks down. In order to have this experience, we must survive. In order to survive, we must learn. To learn, we must have data and an experience. We try something, something other than expected happens, we have new data, we reanalyze, modify our behavior (learn), and try again – NO GUILT or SHAME. If you love yourself, you will not continue to do things that are uncomfortable physically or emotionally. Life is supposed to be fun, exciting, joyful, fulfilling, adventuresome and just a learning experience to entertain the child in you. “Except you become as a little child.”

The Darkness, Tyrant, Temptation, Satan, Devil, etc. is FEAR. Without fear man is free. The only thing that holds you back from doing anything is FEAR. The only thing you have to FEAR is Fear itself. If we operate by the Golden Rule and face-up to the FEAR of death, heights, depths, being closed-in, God, governments, others, or opinions then we basically would have no guilt.

Guilt and Shame are hell. Guilt, Shame and Force are the only control held over man by governments, families, societies, jobs, or religions. The control is established through guilt only if there are “Laws” which you may violate. Guilt is the puppeteer’s strings that jerk you around, make you perform, cause you to dance, take you where you would prefer not to be, bring you discomfort.

Freedom

 

The basic tenant to be preserved, is the rights of the Individual. Individuals have the right to do what they want, when they want, and how they want, without fear of physical recourse. These rights extend to everyone. Therefore, in the exercise of your rights, you do not have the right to interfere with someone else exercising their rights. You do not have the right to force, hurt, or injure another – unless they are doing that to you. If you intend to deprive me of my rights – you have a choice – kill or be killed – no other. One thing for sure, the 51% majority do not have the right to tell the 49% minority what to do, or in any way deprive them of their rights. Stacking law upon law for the “preservation of rights,” have only succeeded in preserving the rights of the “criminals.”

The basis of all laws concerning humanity is: “Do unto others as you would have others do unto you.”

If I own a piece of property, and I want to build a house on that property to house my family, and I want to grow food to feed my family, and I have my own water, generate my own electricity, and build a sewer system that is not going to contaminate anybody’s ground water – why should anyone care what I build. The only time this would cause a problem is if I was planning to sell this property to someone – then maybe I would have bring it up to meet a code to protect the buyer. If I was operating by the “Golden Rule” there would be no problem. If I’m not willing to bring it up to code before selling, then I must destroy everything and put it back as I got it. But don’t tell me, force me to do something against my will.

The perpetrators of crimes against society – have no rights! If someone’s survival is threatened – food, clothing, shelter – then deal with this immediately. Their basic drive to survive is the strongest of the basic programs – they will do anything they deem necessary to survive. House them, cloth them, feed them, and provide them training so they can work – produce. Provide them with an opportunity to earn and survive, and if they commit another crime, eliminate them. There are too many people in this world anyway. I don’t need to be “forced” to pay to keep people in jails or prisons, when 80% of them – upon release – commit another crime. It doesn’t really matter in the overall scheme of things if they’re eliminated. It does matter if they’re released to continue interfering with our experiences.

Death

This is a dream we call life – our movie, our reality. This life is only what we make it. Heaven and hell are only states of mind. It is not the length of our life that counts, but the quality of that life. The life experience is a harmony of light, color, sound, taste, smell, touch, movement, and emotional interfaces. When you have had enough, you may leave.

If there is life after death, and there is enough hard evidence to indicate this is so, then why do we hold so tenaciously to life?

If you die, then your life continues, and eternity becomes now. If someone else dies, then they are alive, and their eternity is now. If someone close to you dies, are you happy for them or crying for you? If you’re guilt ridden, sad, lonely, fearful, shameful or angry – then it is YOU who needs to be worked over. You are the one with the problem – they have no more problems.

There is no condemnation or guilt on the other side. You are no big deal over there, just another one of the souls. You are a part of a joyous group having a good time telling “There I was” stories. You have complete understanding and acceptance. You are tapped into the universal consciousness. All of the data are available to you.

May the Power be With You!

Know it is.
