WHY DOES IT MATTER WHETHER OR NOT JESUS WAS CRUCIFIED?

WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THOSE WHO SUBSCRIBE TO CHRISTIANITY, IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE!

Nancy B. Detweiler, M.Ed., M.Div.

For thousands of years, Earth humans have resided on a plane of duality … within an illusory matrix of lies.  Now, in 2014, “I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away.”  (Revelation 21:1)  Contrary to what Christians are taught, we are not in the End Times, but embarking—as co-creators—of our New Earth.

As the first heaven and the first earth pass away, the matrix of lies disintegrates.  We begin to comprehend what the Apostle Paul meant when he wrote:  “When I was a child, I spoke as a child.  I understood as a child, I thought like a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things.  For now we see through a mirror, darkly; but then face to face.  Now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.”  (I Corinthians 13:11-12)  The authenticity of this letter as one written by Paul—around 54 A.D.—is undisputed by biblical scholars.[i]

In his second letter to the Corinthians, Paul relates an experience he had 14 years previously in which he was transported to the third heaven and heard things not to be told.  He adds that in order to keep him from being too elated over what he saw and heard, he was given a thorn in the flesh.  (II Corinthians 12:1-10)  This out-of-body experience gave Paul insight into another world … a world of bliss.  He could write from personal experience:  “When I became a man, I put away childish things.”

Paul’s experience and subsequent statement offers insight for the way in which many Earth humans relate to modern day Channellers and Intuitives communicating with those abiding on higher dimensions.   The tendency is to give away our innate power and to depend upon the Channeller/Intuitive for guidance and information from the higher realms, while neglecting to develop our own capacity to communicate for ourselves.  Paul states that when he was a child, he thought like a child; but when he became a man, he put away childish things—thereby mapping the path to higher consciousness and the ability to communicate with those beings dwelling on the higher dimensions.   The path is one of individual development.  Each one of us possesses the innate capacity to progress along this path.  However, we forfeit that ability and our own power when we become too dependent upon the Channeller/Intuitive.   This tendency for people to become overly dependent may be why Apostle Paul was not allowed to speak of what he saw during his journey to the 3^rd heaven.

What does Paul’s experience have to do with Christians and whether or not Jesus was crucified?  Remember, all that occurred within the matrix of lies in which we live will pass away—all that has happened was illusion and will be no more.

The reasons the question of Jesus’ crucifixion impacts Christians relate to this present time of transition to higher consciousness.

1.  Christians are taught:  Jesus paid it all through the shedding of His blood on the cross.  Therefore, if you are saved—meaning you have accepted Jesus as your Lord & Savior—you have nothing to worry over.  You will not be punished in hell for an eternity for not believing in Him.  To avoid going to hell is the major reason for becoming a Christian.   Many Christians, especially ministers, love to talk of saving souls.  What they don’t often say is, “saving souls from going to hell.”  Hell, although non-existent, forms the foundation for most of the proclamation work Christians do.

2.  This teaching—“Jesus paid it all” marks the Christian as a lowly sinner bound for eternal punishment, except for the shed blood of Jesus.  Thus, the Christian’s view of self is tainted with a sense of unworthiness.  When we feel unworthy as an individual, we become like sheep … simply following the instructions of authority figures … unable to think for ourselves.

3.  Christians are taught “Jesus’ blood cleansed you as white as snow.”  This teaching very often means the individual Christian feels no need to think in terms of holistic  growth:  physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual.   Using the Purple Transmuting Flame for purification, reading self-help books, getting to know past life influences that are adversely affecting this incarnation, considering possible psychological reasons for physical, emotional, or mental illness:  all are heretical or “New Age” and not for Christians to use.

4.  Many Christians  feel perfectly comfortable sinning (their language), then—for a variety of reasons, including getting caught—appear convinced that confessing their sin to a priest or to the church community grants them pardon … no matter how many times they sin.  Christians are taught to be forgiving when an individual confesses.   There can be a total disconnect from the personal issues behind the actions … no inner urge to understand the behavior and convert the problem energy into a positive asset.  After all, “Jesus paid it all … His blood washed me white as snow.”

5.  It is difficult to know a loving Mother/Father God when that God resorted to violence (crucifixion) as a means of offering salvation from eternal damnation.  Christians are faced with a double standard.  They often say, “God can do anything God chooses.”  At the same time, most churches regularly have a time for backsliding Christians to re-dedicate their lives to Jesus.  Christians are taught to be forgiving, while believing  their God will hold a grudge for eternity … not only a grudge, but inflict horrible punishment for eternity.  Fear dwells within the Christian, although they will strongly deny that fact; instead declaring, “I am saved.”  They live with a lie they are afraid to release by seeking Truth.

6.  Unconditional love and the crucifixion are concepts that cannot be reconciled.  That’s one reason, Christians often hear the statement or make it:  “Don’t ask too many questions or you will lose your faith.”   To step out of the orthodox Christian box can result in expulsion from the congregation and/or excommunication from the church.  Punishment assumes a major role in Christian thinking, chaining them to a life that leaves them wondering, “Surely there is more to life than this.”

I could go on and on, but my point is made:  Teaching Jesus crucified as the mainstay of Christianity is unthinkable  and results in grave harm to many downtrodden souls.  This, … while the Truth is that Jesus incarnated as one of the Great Avatars who came to Earth to show Earth humans the Way Home to being ONE WITH ALL THAT IS … TO KNOW WHAT IT IS LIKE TO LIVE & MOVE & HAVE OUR BEING WITHIN THE ENERGY OF UNCONDITIONAL LOVE.

As Jesus taught:  “The Truth will set you free!”

Why has not a definitive answer come through talented channellers and Intuitives regarding whether or not Jesus was crucified?  Why does there seem to be as many shades of this story as there are channellers  and Intuitives?

How can Christians learn to put away childish things and become an adult if those who already see into the heavenly realms—like the Apostle Paul—are allowed to spoon feed them.   Christians need to learn to think independently, not give away their power and accept whatever they are taught by those in authority.  Christians have no idea that they are child gods … that they were created and given the gift of freewill to choose how they want to live their lives … that they are eternal souls who can take as long as they choose to return Home to Unconditional Love.

According to the biblical text, Jesus was a rebel.  There is not one positive word recorded in the Bible that Jesus spoke in reference to the religious leaders.  He repeatedly and deliberately disobeyed religious laws, knowing the religious leaders were watching him.  He certainly tempted the authorities to take action against him.

On the other hand, Jesus was born into a highly respected, well positioned family.  His maternal uncle—who became his guardian following his father’s death—was one of the most wealthy men in the ancient world.  Joseph of Arimathea also possessed tremendous influence within the Roman Court as well as with the religious leaders.   How often do we see members of highly respected families, with great wealth and political clout, being tortured?  Crucifixion was one of the cruelest methods of death.

Jesus was a highly trained Initiate—both in Egypt and India—who knew how to disappear from sight (Luke 4:28-30) and escape his enemies.   If Jesus was crucified, he allowed it to demonstrate there is no death.  However, He frequently demonstrated this fact by raising people from the dead.

Whether or not Jesus was crucified matters ONLY because the teaching that God sent His only begotten Son to die on the cross for our salvation from sin and escape from eternal punishment has created so many obstacles to Christians getting to know a God of unconditional love … who gifted us with freewill choice along with the freedom to experiment with that gift … who created us as god-children, co-creators with our Mother/Father God.

Jesus incarnated on Earth as a Wayshower, yet Christians have largely ignored what He came to show us … focusing instead on the story of crucifixion.  Orthodox Christianity teaches that Earth humans need a Mediator between God and us; Jesus taught, “Ye are gods.”  (John 10:34)

LIKE EVERY PART OF OUR SOCIETY, RELIGION HAS LIED TO US

2013/2014 – YEARS OF MAJOR CHANGES

IN

PREPARATION FOR THE GOLDEN AGE

Nancy B. Detweiler, M.Ed., M.Div.

“So have no fear of them; for nothing is covered up that will not be uncovered, and nothing secret that will not become known.”  Matthew 10:26

The 26,000 years cycle of the most recent Precession of the Equinoxes and our sojourn on the plane of duality drew to a close at the end of 2012—a journey that lifted Mother Earth out of the 3^rd dimension and into the lower regions of the 4^th dimension. It is on the 4^th dimension that we pause while we learn to exhibit the characteristics of the Golden Age. As we develop the understanding of who we truly are and begin to live from that perspective—living in love for all people—Earth will ascend to the 5^th dimension, taking its inhabitants with her. This pause on the 4^th dimension is not permanent … it is to give us the opportunity to learn the Truth that has been hidden from us for thousands of years and to integrate this Truth into our daily lives.

2013-2014 are not years for procrastination … for clinging to the old beliefs and ways of life. It is a time for realizing that the old has passed away … a time for releasing the past with all of its resentments, hatreds, discrimination, and emotional pain … a time for forgiving self and others and moving into living life from the perspective of Being Love and Enacting Love is all things.

Around us, we behold a planetary society that is collapsing to make room for the new.  We will transform every segment of our existing world.  Nothing will be the same. The way is forward … not moving backward to a life that once was on the 3^rd dimensional plane of duality.

In the past, we all chose to advance spiritually by living on a dimension in which we must learn to overcome darkness and become light.  Why?  Living on the plane of duality offered us the opportunity to evolve spiritually more rapidly than we could have if we had chosen to remain on the higher planes of light and love.  For that reason, many of us chose to incarnate on the plane of duality.  The Genesis narrative of Adam and Eve eating fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and evil is the symbolic story of our choice.  Rather than being sinful, this choice simply meant that we wanted to learn by being exposed to good and evil.  That way we could gain from our mistakes, through the unfolding of the Universal Law: We reap what we sow.  However, in order to focus on the plane of duality, we had to die to conscious memories of the dimensions of Light.  Symbolically, we chose to leave the Garden of Eden and experience the world of duality.  Since then, Earth has been our classroom.

Before moving on to our ultimate goal of ascending to the 5^th dimension, we must understand how our planetary history has unfolded.  We must examine our lives to determine how well we have learned our 3^rd dimensional lessons.  2013-2014 marks an opportunity to be sure we are ready for graduation and ascension. No one judges us.  The. prerequisite to ascending to higher planes is that no negativity can accompany us there.

During 2013/2014, we will continue to experience the trauma of learning that life on 3^rd dimension was not what it seemed.  While on 3^rd dimension, we lived in a matrix of lies and accepted them as the way life was.  We did so because we have descended so deeply into materiality that we presently use only 5% of our DNA and call the rest of our DNA strand junkDNA.  We habitually use only 10% of our brain power.  This means that humanity possesses a very constricted concept of who we actually are.  As a result, those, who seized power through the thousands of years of our residency on the plane of duality, withheld much information from us in order to render us complaint to their control.  Humanity has been enslaved in a variety of very subtle ways, most of which we are totally unaware.

For this reason, 2013-2014 will consist largely of how we respond to the massive unveiling of lies that presently is catapulting into the Light of day.

Once more, we stand at the Gates of Eden.  Do we qualify to re-enter those Gates and return to higher dimensions where we live in only Light and Love?  In order to do so, we must forgive and release all that is not of Love.  Until we know the complete content of the matrix of lies in which we have lived on the plane of duality, we cannot know how difficult forgiving all persons may be.  Are we ready to forgive and release the past—even though the lies may have caused us great pain—so that we can move forward in our knowledge of the Truth?

As Truth increasingly Lights our Way, we must remember that we used God’s gift of freewill choice to evolve spiritually on the plane of duality.  That choice meant that evil would also be present to provide a contrast to good.  The lessons we chose to learn involved recognizing the good and always choosing it over evil.  Through the thousands of years on 3^rd dimension, we have all made mistakes and reaped the consequences.  Hopefully, we have learned much.

One of the principal areas in which truth has been withheld is the field of religion.

Since I am familiar only with the Christian religion, I’ll speak to it.  Basically, Christians have been taught the following:

1.  We inherited sin from Adam and Eve, thus we were born sinners in need of salvation.

2.  We have only one life to live, represented by our present physical body.

3.  Upon the death of our physical body, it returns to dust and we go to either heaven or hell.

4.  We are separate from God and the only way we can be united with God is to accept Jesus as our personal Savior.

5.  We are separate from all other beings, all of creation.

6.  Even though the cosmos is boundless, Earth is the only planet on which human life exists.  We are alone in the cosmos.

7.  God loved us and sent his only begotten Son, Jesus, to die on the cross and save us from our sins.

8.  Jesus did it all.  We have only to accept him as our Savior and we are saved from eternal punishment in a hell of unquenchable fire.

9.  The End – we either walk the golden streets of heaven for eternity – or – we burn in hell for eternity.

The fact that we have accepted the above explanation of life is an indication that we really do not use but about 10% of our brain power.  We call the above list tenets of our faith.  We readily accept the religious authorities’ admonition:  “If you question your faith, you may lose it.”   Even though we may vehemently deny it, we are enslaved by the fear of being forbidden the keys to the kingdom.  Little do we know how tightly our minds are controlled.

Consider how often we refuse to investigate an area of thought because “it is not Christian.”  We have unknowingly given Christian doctrine priority over seeking Truth.  We have been taught that the Bible is The Word of God and that it tells us all we need to know.  Ponder how frequently we condemn a person or topic with the statement:  “The Bible calls it an abomination.”  We have settled for an extremely narrow world view—one not even remotely based on Love and an open minded search for Truth.

The word eternity is a good example.  The medical profession tells us a baby is formed by the union of an egg and sperm.  Religion informs us that this baby is conceived and born in sin to live the only life he/she will have.  If the baby grows up to accept Jesus as Lord and Savior, then he/she will eventually die and spend eternity in heaven.  A favorite biblical verse is John 3:16: “For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, so that whoever believes in him should not perish , but have eternal life.”  In the Christian interpretation of this verse, eternal life is based on a decision to believe in Jesus.

The actual meaning of eternity is infinite time, without beginning or end.  Religion ignores the without beginning and dates its beginning for each individual as the time of our one physical birth.  In so doing, humanity is rendered capable of being controlled by fear.  We came from nothing and if we do not adhere to the established beliefs of the church, we will be condemned for eternity—only one life, only one chance.  Sadly, our minds are so controlled that we accept this world view as fact and are shocked when someone suggests otherwise.

 *************************************

         In 324 C.E. (A.D.), Constantine, Emperor of Rome, adopted Christianity as the state religion.  Thereafter, the cause of Rome and the cause of Christ became one.  As a result, Constantine’s commitment to the churches’ cause meant that he must also become involved in their conflicts, which were numerous.  He set up Councils of Bishops to solve the internal religious problems.  The decisions made by the Councils of Bishops became imperial policy with regard to ecclesiastical questions.[i]  Obedience to the king became synonymous with obedience to the church.

Throughout hundreds of years, controversies raged over the doctrines to be accepted by the Church.  Irenaeus, Bishop of Lyons, proclaimed:  “The real Church has one and the same faith everywhere in the world.”  The title of the article in which Irenaeus makes this statement speaks volumes:  The Refutation & Overthrow of the Knowledge Falsely So Called.[ii]  It was originally published in Irenaeus’ Selections from the Work Against Heresies.  Anyone daring to believe or teach anything other than the approved church doctrine—i.e. heresy—was mercilessly persecuted.  The freedom to seek truth on our own was very effectively eradicated.

The condemning of an acceptance of reincarnation seriously impeded Christians’ ability to understand who we truly are, thereby disempowering us as unique individuals.  This occurred in 553 C.E. (A.D.) during the 5^th Ecumenical Council when the writings of Origen (185-254 C.E.) were condemned.  A 4^th century Doctor of the Church, Saint Jerome, declared Origen to be the greatest teacher of the Church after the apostles.  Saint Gregory of Nyssa, 4^th century, affirmed Origen to be the prince of Christian learning in the 3^rd century.[iii]  Regardless, Origen’s work was declared heresy in 553 C.E. with the following threat to all Christendom.

        “If anyone does not anathematize Arius, Eunomius, Macedonius, Apollinarius, Nestorius, Eutyches, and Origen, as well as their heretical books, and also all other heretics who have already been condemned and anathematized by the holy, catholic, and apostolic church and by the four holy synods which have already been mentioned, and also all those who have thought or now think in the same way as the aforesaid heretics and who persist in their error even to death:  let him be anathema.” [iv]  Webster’s Dictionary defines anathema as a curse solemnly pronounced by ecclesiastical authority and accompanied by excommunication.

         The vehemence with which the Church regulated Christians’ beliefs is illustrated in a papal bull occurring hundreds of years later.  On May 15, 1252, Pope Innocent IV issued the As exstirpanda bull that “Authorized the use of torture for eliciting confessions from heretics, and authorized the execution of relapsed heretics by burning them alive during the Inquisition.” [v]

 ************************

         Christology offered a major source of contention.  Who was Jesus?  Was he divine or human or both?

Here, we must remember that all religions have been created on the plane of duality by less than perfect  human beings seeking to understand their world.  All sacred texts were composed by human beings living on the plane of duality.  Although inspiration played a role, all inspiration must first come through the personality of the writer.  The degree of truth to be found in any inspired writing is dependent upon the purity of the soul of the writer, the motivation of the writer, the selflessness of the writer.  The books to be included in a sacred text were determined by human beings living on the plane of duality.

A part of our preparation for entering the 5^th dimension is to accept that we chose, many lifetimes prior to our present incarnation, to evolve spiritually through a knowledge of good and evil.  In so doing, we died –we have  lived life operating with 10% of our actual brain power.  We forget that we have lived thousands of lifetimes on Earth’s plane of duality.  We forget that we have lived under the Universal Law We reap what we sow and therefore have had to reincarnate repeatedly on the plane of duality in order to balance with positive service to others the negativity we have previously sown.  This is how atonement is made—not through a blood sacrifice of a crucified Savior.

During the eons of our residing on the plane of duality, many Avatars (Great Teachers)[vi] have incarnated throughout the world to assist humanity in finding the Way back to Oneness with Creator God.  Even though the fact has been hidden from Christians, many of these Avatars/Saviors have been described with identical terminology.  We have ancient sculptures, paintings,writings, and archaeological artifacts that offer proof of this fact.  Ancient sacred texts have been translated into English.  Some researchers are trained in ancient languages and can read the originals.  Their findings reveal at least sixteen Saviors whose life narratives share the same events as Jesus would later experience:   Krishna of India, 1200 B.C.; Sakia Budha, 600 B.C.; Thammuz of Syria, 1160 B.C.; Wittoba of the Telingonese – 552 B.C.; Ioa of Nepal – 622 B.C.; Hesus of the Celtic Druids – 834 B.C.; Quexalcote of Mexico – 587 B.C.; Quirinus of Rome – 506 B.C.; Prometheus of  Caucasus – 547 B.C.; Thulis of Egypt – 1700 B.C.; Indra of Tibet – 725 B.C.; Alcestos of Euripides – 600 B.C.; Atys of Phrygia – 1170 B.C.; Crite of Chaldea – 1200 B.C.; Bali of Orissa – 725 B.C.; and Mithra of Persia – 600 B.C.[vii]  (Dates are approximate, according to Kersey Graves.)

Krishna of India Crucified – 1200 B.C.E.

Amulet depicting Orpheus crucified

According to http://www.truthbeknown.com/ this amulet may have

been created in the 2^nd or 3^rd century copying an earlier version.

“Lo! Streaming from the fatal tree

His all atoning blood,

Is this the Infinite? –Yes, “tis he,

Prometheus, and a God!

 

Well might the sun in darkness hide,

And veil his glories in,

When God, the great Prometheus, died

For man the creature’s sin.”[viii]

        Tremendous amounts of ancient artifacts, historical documents, books, and paintings were either destroyed in an effort to maintain one and the same faith or have been stored in the over 50 miles of shelves in the Secret Archives in Vatican City.[ix]  This has made objective research very difficult.

 *******************************

         In order to describe Jesus, the Church Fathers adopted the God-Man narrative and terminology that had existed for thousands of years.  The biographies of each Savior share common elements, such as born of a virgin … a star points the way to the birthplace of the new Savior … angels, shepherds, and Magi visit the infant … in several, gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh are given to the child … the 25^th of December marks the birthday of the gods … the babes are saved from destruction shortly after birth … they possess early signs of being advanced beyond the normal … their kingdoms are not of this world … they are called the only begotten Son of God … our Lord and Savior … they performed miracles … were baptized … crucified  as atonement for our sins … descended into hell … resurrected … and ascended  in the presence of others.[x]

“Saviors unnumbered have died for the sins of man and by the hands of man, and through their deaths have interceded in heaven for the souls of their executioners.  The martyrdom of the God-Man and the redemption of the world through His blood has been an essential tenet of many great religions.  Nearly all these stories can be traced to sun worship, for the glorious orb of day is the Savior who dies annually for every creature within his universe, but year after year rises again victorious from the tomb of winter.  Without a doubt the doctrine of the crucifixion is based upon the secret traditions of the Ancient Wisdom; it is a constant reminder that the divine nature of man is perpetually crucified upon the animal organism.” [xi]  Metaphysicians know these Saviors to be Earth’s Ascended Masters.  They continue to be present in the 5^th dimension and higher.  Ascended Masters maintain a personal relationship with all who so desire.  We call talking with them prayer.

 *****************************

         The Protestant Reformation did not take place until the 16^th century.  Therefore, Catholics and Protestants shared the same history for 1500+ years.  The whole of Christendom has been psychologically marred by efforts to enforce one and the same faith.  Christian apologists have supplied a steady defense and proof of orthodox Christianity.  Our minds have been easily controlled by the fear of being condemned as a heretic and excommunicated.  A tribal consciousness  will gladly assist in enforcing the one and the same faith.  Called by various names, churches have presbyteries, elders, deacons that serve to weed out any heretical beliefs or teachings.  Ministers and professors are fired: reputations are ruined.  A layperson may be shunned and/or pronounced crazy by fellow congregants.   Minister and congregants are locked in a Catch 22 that very effectively prevents exploration for Truth.  For this reason, in recent decades, large numbers have left the church to search for Truth on their own.

The inability for the churches to explore and seek Truth has resulted in 2013/2014–the years Earth humans are temporarily residing on 4^th dimension—arriving with multitudes still dead to the lies religions have propagated.  Will ministers and congregants awaken to the challenge of opening to new insights regarding who we are as divine beings? Do we dare to open our minds and seek Truth?

Will we stand outside the Gates of the Garden of Eden and affirm our intention to resurrect from the dead and ascend with Mother Earth to the higher dimensions of consciousness?

2013-2014 offer us the opportunity to do so!

 ****************************

        As my Bridging the Gap Ministries, I have prepared a website and blog with writings to assist you in making the transition. Many of us expected to see visible major changes take place on or around December 12, 2012. Actually major changes did take place, however, they were not readily visible. The greatest shift that occurred is that Earth was able to break away from the 3^rd dimension and move into the 4^th, while anchoring on the 5^th. This fact has already brought forth much Truth—formerly hidden from the people. This revelation of Truth will continue! We will see increasingly that Love is permeating the Earth!

WELCOME TO THE NEW EARTH

WELCOME TO THE NEW EARTH

Congratulations! Through the unified efforts of Heaven and Earth, we have God Victoriously Birthed the New Earth in the 5th-Dimensional Realms of CAUSE.

During the unprecedented celestial alignment that took place on December 21st and 22nd, 2012, our Father-Mother God Inbreathed the Earth and ALL Creation up the Spiral of Evolution into the next octave of our learning experiences. This event, which was called the Shift of the Ages, is a natural part of our evolutionary experience that occurs only once every so many million years.

This shift involved not only the Sons and Daughters of God evolving on Earth, but also the Sons and Daughters of God throughout Infinity. Each and every Child of God is now in position to cocreate with our God Parents the next phase of our journey back to the Heart of our Father-Mother God. This will be a unique process for every Child of God throughout the Universe, but on Earth it will be glorious beyond our wildest imagination.

In order to grasp the magnitude of what the Birth of the New Earth in the 5th-Dimensional Realms of Cause means for each of us, we must understand that the 5th Dimension is a frequency of Light that transcends separation and duality. Within this higher frequency of vibration the gross mutations of disease, poverty, hunger, war, greed, hatred, or pain and suffering of any kind cannot be sustained. The 5th Dimension is a timeless, spaceless frequency of God’s Infinite Light and Perfection. It is the frequency that we have always known as the Heavenly Realms. Now with the Shift of the Ages God Victoriously accomplished, the Heavenly Realms have Ascended up the Spiral of Evolution into the 6th-Dimensional Realms of Light.

Within the 5th Dimension Divine Love and the consciousness of Oneness and Reverence for Life are the ONLY reality. The Sons and Daughters of God abiding in the 5th Dimension are destined to cocreate experiences that enhance life with every thought, word, action, feeling, and belief we express. We will cocreate win-win situations for everybody as we perpetually focus on Love, Light, and the highest good for ALL concerned. This may sound too good to be true, but actually it does not even begin to describe the wonders and joyous things we will be cocreating once we accept that the New Earth has been Birthed, and we daily and hourly live out of that profound Truth.

I know the events of the 2012 December Solstice have created a lot of confusion.  That is because of people’s expectations, and because it is difficult for people to step back and see the bigger picture. For aeons of time our fragmented, fear-based human egos have manipulated us into believing that our physical body is who we are and that the physical plane is our only reality. Nothing could be further from the Truth, but that illusion is a hard habit to break. We look at the outer world and come to erroneous conclusions about events that have taken place in multidimensional levels of our existence. Our conclusions are wrong because we are multidimensional Beings of Light abiding within many dimensions simultaneously. The physical plane is the least real of all of the dimensions we abide in, and it is the very last dimension to reflect the changes that have taken place in the Realms of Cause.

The Company of Heaven is very aware of the challenge we have with our egos, and they are doing everything they can to help us perceive the Truth of the miraculous Birth of the New Earth. Ask your I AM Presence and the Company of Heaven for clarity as you take the following information into your heart of hearts. You are already aware of the wonders that have transpired. That is true even if you do not remember these events on a conscious level. You have been an instrument of God during this Cosmic Moment, and you were an intricate part in the fulfillment of this important part of the Divine Plan.

On December 21, 2012, during the moments of Earth’s alignment with the Galactic Core of the Milky Way, our Father-Mother God Inbreathed this planet and all Life evolving upon her up the Spiral of Evolution. During that Cosmic Moment, this precious planet reclaimed her rightful place in our Solar System. That sacred event paved the way for another activity of Light that had to be victoriously accomplished in order for the New Earth and ALL Humanity to be successfully birthed into the full embrace of the 5th Dimension.

Over 2,000 years ago, Jesus, the Avatar of the Piscean Age, revealed an activity of Light that would take place during these “end times” which would serve as a catalyst for returning the fallen Sons and Daughters of God on Earth to Christ Consciousness. The event he revealed was a Baptism by Sacred Fire that would be initiated by our Mother God, the Holy Spirit, on behalf of awakening Humanity.  This miraculous event was God Victoriously accomplished on December 22, 2012, thus paving the way for the successful Birth of the New Earth in the 5^th Dimension.

In order for us to comprehend the enormity of what has occurred for Humanity and the Earth, the Company of Heaven asked me to reiterate some important information they gave to us about events that paved the way for the wondrous Birth of the New Earth. There are thousands of new people on our newsletter list, and this background is very important. This article is a little long, but I promise you it is well worth your time.

Baptism by Sacred Fire

In the beginning, we were a full-grown Being of Light, and an Immortal Victorious Threefold Flame enveloped our Earthly bodies. The Blue Flame of our Father God’s Power activated our left-brain hemisphere and the rational, logical portion of our brain. It also activated the masculine power center within our Throat Chakra.  The Pink Flame of our Mother God’s Love activated our right-brain hemisphere and the creative, intuitive portion of our brain. This Sacred Fire also activated the feminine love center within our Heart Chakra. Our Mother God is the feminine polarity of God. She is the Holy Comforter and expresses the Love Nature of God.  She is the Being we came to know as the Holy Spirit within the Holy Trinity.

Initially, the masculine and the feminine polarities of our Father-Mother God were perfectly balanced within us. This allowed our Father God’s Blue Flame of Power and our Mother God’s Pink Flame of Love to merge into the Violet Flame of God’s Infinite Perfection.

This perfectly balanced Violet Flame activated our spiritual brain centers, which are our pituitary, pineal, hypothalamus glands, and the ganglionic centers at the base of our brain. When these spiritual brain centers were activated, our Crown Chakra of Enlightenment opened to full breadth allowing the Yellow-gold Flame of Christ Consciousness to Birth the Child of God that we are into the physical plane of Earth. This Yellow-gold Flame completed our Immortal Victorious Threefold Flame and the manifestation of the Holy Trinity within us.

After our fall from Grace, we created overwhelming pain and suffering for ourselves. We used our gift of free will and our creative faculties of thought and feeling to create patterns of imperfection that resulted in all of the maladies that are now existing on Earth. When we began experiencing pain for the first time we were afraid, and we had no idea how to cope with what was happening in our lives. We were so buried in our self-inflicted strife that we could not raise our heads above the mud puddle of our miscreations enough to see the Light.  This prevented us from communicating with our God Self or from perceiving viable solutions to our problems through Christ Consciousness. All we wanted to do was make the pain stop.

We knew that our Heart Chakra was the portal through which our feelings were expressed in the physical plane. We thought that maybe if we blocked this portal, the pain would stop. So the Children of Earth, in a desperate attempt to stop our pain, made the fateful decision to close our Heart Chakras.

The Beings of Light revealed that when we closed our Heart Chakras, we blocked the portal through which our Mother God’s Love entered the physical plane of Earth. This catastrophic occurrence forced our Mother God to withdraw her Love to a mere trickle of its original intensity. This created monumental problems that catapulted the Earth and all her Life into a downward spiral of darkness, pain, and suffering.

Once we closed our Heart Chakras, the infinitesimal amount of Divine Love our Mother God was able to project through our right-brain hemispheres, was barely enough to sustain brain consciousness. This caused our right brains to became almost dormant. When that occurred, the Blue Flame of Power from our Father God and the Pink Flame of Love from our Mother God no longer merged into the perfectly balanced Violet Flame of God’s Infinite Perfection.

Our Father-Mother God’s balanced Violet Flame was the catalyst that activated our spiritual brain centers and opened our Crown Chakra. Without the support of the Violet Flame, our spiritual brain centers began to atrophy. This forced our Crown Chakra to close, which prevented us from communicating with our God Self and the Company of Heaven. We were no longer able to maintain Christ Consciousness.

When we lost conscious awareness of our God Self and the Company of Heaven, we started to perceive the physical plane as our only reality. We came to the distorted conclusion that our physical body is all that we are and that the gratification of our physical senses is our purpose and reason for being. As we plodded through our Earthly existence making choices that took us further into separation and darkness, we developed a fear-based alter ego. This fragmented aspect of our personality is known as our human ego. Our human ego usurped the control our God Self was supposed to have over our Earthly bodies.

Without the balance of our Mother God’s Love, we began abusing our masculine power. We made power-oriented decisions that did not take into consideration how our choices would affect other people, or if they reflected Love or a Reverence for Life. When we were in male bodies we abused our power by being violent and aggressive. When we were in female bodies, we abused our power by suppressing it and allowing ourselves to be dominated and oppressed. The more we abused our power, the deeper we fell into the abyss of our human miscreations. As time went on, our plight became much worse.

Then, 2,000 years ago, during the dawn of the Piscean Age, an evaluation was made by our Father-Mother God and the Company of Heaven to see what the greatest need of the hour was for Humanity. The Shift of the Ages was coming and our hearts were still closed. We were oblivious about the Love of our Mother God, and we no longer functioned with Christ Consciousness. It was clear that without powerful Divine Intervention Humanity would not be ready to make the shift into the 5^th Dimension.

The Children of God on Earth had fallen into an abusive and power-oriented patriarchal consciousness. We were being totally manipulated by the “dog eat dog” attitude of our fragmented and fear-based human egos. We were oblivious of our Mother God and her Divine Love. We knew that there was only One God and that we are all Children of God, but it did not occur to us that this all-encompassing Presence of God was both masculine and feminine. Amazingly, we assumed that as Children of God we had a single parent, and we believed that parent was male—a Father God. What child is ever birthed without a Mother? “As above, so below.”

During Earth’s evaluation by our Father-Mother God and the Company of Heaven at the inception of the Piscean Age, it was clear that the greatest need of the hour was for Humanity to reclaim our Divine Birthright as Sons and Daughters of God.

The only way to accomplish that goal was for us to return to Christ Consciousness. And the ONLY way to return to Christ Consciousness, was for us to open our Heart Chakras and the portal within our right-brain hemispheres through which our Mother God could return to Earth. In other words, without the Love of our Mother God there was no way to regain Christ Consciousness. Humanity would have to open our Heart Chakras and balance our Mother God’s Flame of Divine Love within our Immortal Victorious Threefold Flame. Only then could our right and left brain hemispheres become balanced, and our spiritual brain centers reactivated, thus opening our Crown Chakra and returning us to Christ Consciousness.

In order to accomplish this mighty feat, a Divine Plan was set into motion. Our Father-Mother God summoned a Beloved Son and Daughter of God from the Great Silence. These precious Beings were Twin Flames who had been in the Great Silence for a very long time learning how to anchor the archetypes for both the return of our Mother God and Humanity’s return to Christ Consciousness. They are the ones we have known as Jesus the Christ and Mary Magdalene. These selfless Beings of Light volunteered to embody on Planet Earth to demonstrate to the fallen Children of God the reality of our Mother God, and the path of Divine Love Humanity must follow in order to return to Christ Consciousness.

Jesus and Mary Magdalene knew that because of Humanity’s ingrained belief in the patriarchal authority of a single Father God, Mary’s role would initially be as a silent partner. Her part of the Divine Plan was cloaked in secrecy to prevent the plan from being blocked through the abuse of power being wielded by Humanity’s patriarchal human egos at the time. Jesus and Mary Magdalene were equal partners, and together they God Victoriously accomplished the Immaculate Concept of their Divine Missions.

During what is referred to as “the lost 18 years,” Jesus and Mary Magdalene studied in the mystery schools of India, Tibet, and Egypt. When it was time to begin their mission of anchoring the archetypes for the return of our Mother God and Humanity’s return to Christ Consciousness, Jesus demonstrated for all the world to see the imperative first step-the return of the Divine Feminine, our Mother God, the Holy Spirit.

At the age of 30, Jesus and Mary Magdalene came to the banks of the Jordan River, where Jesus immersed himself in the sacred water element. Water represents the emotional strata for the Earth as well as the emotional bodies for Humanity. Once Jesus was in the water, he participated in a Divine Ceremony that anchored the archetype for the return of our Mother God. In that ceremony, John the Baptist washed away the sins of the world by Baptizing Jesus with the Love of our Mother God-the Holy Spirit.

We have all seen pictures of Jesus standing in the Jordan River with the Dove of the Holy Spirit descending into his Crown Chakra. In that moment, Jesus’ right-brain hemisphere was brought into perfect balance with his left-brain hemisphere. His spiritual brain centers were activated, and his Crown Chakra was opened to full breadth. When this occurred, Jesus became the Christ grown to full stature and his mission of modeling Humanity’s Divine Potential as a Beloved Child of God began in earnest. Simultaneously, Mary Magdalene experienced the same anointing through a Baptism of the Holy Spirit. At that moment, Jesus and Mary Magdalene became the Avatars of the Piscean Age.

For the next three years Jesus modeled to the world the path of Oneness and Divine Love that each of us must follow in order to regain Christ Consciousness.  Day in and day out, Mary Magdalene supported Jesus with her love, and held the sacred space for the fulfillment of their Divine Missions.

The path of Oneness and Divine Love is the only way the Children of God will return, through Christ Consciousness, to the Heart of our Divine Father and Mother. Jesus demonstrated this path and our Divine Potential through various activities of Light and the miracles he performed. Both he and Mary Magdalene clearly revealed the Oneness of Life through their dedication to each other and their reverence for ALL Life.

At the age of 33 Jesus accomplished the final facets of his Divine Mission.  Thirty-three is the master number that reflects the Christ made manifest. There is a lot of discussion at this time as to whether Jesus was actually crucified and whether or not he resurrected his body. The Company of Heaven has confirmed that both of these events were vitally important to the fulfillment of Jesus and Mary Magdalene’s Divine Plan.

Contrary to the guilt-inducing things we are often told, the reason Jesus was tortured and crucified was not to atone for Humanity’s sins because we are such worthless sinners and worms in the dust that someone had to save us. In Truth, our Father-Mother God gave each of us the gift of free will and NO ONE is allowed to interfere with Humanity’s experience, or the ramifications, of our free-will choices. We are responsible for how we have used our gift of Life, and we must experience the consequences of our thoughts, words, actions, feelings, and beliefs whether they were positive or negative.

Jesus agreed to be crucified because he wanted to prove to the world that there is nothing the fallen human ego can do to the physical body that will destroy the Divinity within us. His crucifixion and resurrection proved that even if one’s body is reviled, tortured, and crucified, the Divinity within is eternal and lives on in our Light Body.

Jesus and Mary Magdalene came to anchor the archetypes for the return of our Mother God and to demonstrate the path of Oneness and Divine Love that each of us must follow in order to return to Christ Consciousness. Jesus knew, however, that our human egos were powerful and that our lack of trust in ourselves was overwhelming. He was very aware that the potential was great that we would misunderstand his mission. After all, many Avatars had come and gone since Humanity’s fall from Grace, each one with the intent of teaching Humanity the path of Divine Love that would lead to Christ Consciousness. In every attempt, Humanity separated ourselves from the Avatars and Deified them with the hope that they would save us. Jesus was determined to not let that happen this time, so he created a plan that would clearly demonstrate to Humanity that we are each responsible for our individual return to Christ Consciousness.

In the final act of Beloved Jesus’ mission he wanted to clearly reveal to Humanity that he cannot do this for us and that we are not saved simply because he was here. Jesus left a powerful archetype to prove that no matter how dedicated we are to him, we are each responsible for our return to ChristConsciousness. In order to create this archetype, Jesus invoked the assistance of his Beloved Disciples.

After Jesus’ resurrection in his Light Body, he remained on Earth for 40 days.  During that time he expanded his Light Body and lifted the Disciples into Christ Consciousness, so that they could experience the return of our Mother God and what it was like to reconnect with their God Selves. In Christ Consciousness the Disciples were able to perform all of the miracles Jesus performed. They quickly learned the lessons that would enable them to continue the mission that had been started by their beloved brother, Jesus. They prepared to spread the Truth of our Mother God, the reality of Humanity’s Divinity, and the Path of Oneness and Divine Love that would lead to Christ Consciousness for every evolving soul.

At the end of the 40 days, it was time for Jesus to Ascend into the next phase of his mission. When the Heavens opened and Jesus Ascended into the Realms of Illumined Truth, he withdrew his Light Body from the Disciples. Since the Disciples had not attained Christ Consciousness through their own endeavors they began to falter and they lost the ability to sustain Christ Consciousness.

The Disciples realized that in spite of their great love for Jesus and their dedication to him and his mission, he could not save them or sustain them in Christ Consciousness. It was not enough for them to love him, or for them to accept him as their personal savior. Reaching Christ Consciousness was something each of them would have to accomplish on his own. The most Jesus and Mary Magdalene could do was anchor the archetypes for the return of our Mother God, and demonstrate the path of Oneness and Divine Love that we must each follow in order to return to Christ Consciousness.

For ten days the Disciples struggled with their predicament. On the 50th day after Jesus’ resurrection, the day we now call Pentecost, the Disciples realized what they must do in order to attain and sustain Christ Consciousness. On that day the Disciples entered what was called the Upper Room. This was a higher state of consciousness that they each attained by consecrating their lives to the path of Oneness and Divine Love. In that elevated state of consciousness, each of the Disciples opened his heart and from the depths of his Being invoked the return of our Mother God through a Baptism of the Holy Spirit. This time the Baptism was by Sacred Fire instead of water.

In that instant, the Disciples’ right-brain hemispheres were brought into perfect balance with their left-brain hemispheres. Their spiritual brain centers were activated, and their Crown Chakras were opened to full breadth. This allowed the Disciples to regain Christ Consciousness and to reconnect with their God Selves.  We have all seen depictions of the Disciples after their Baptism with Sacred Fire by the Holy Spirit. They are shown with a Flame pulsating from their CrownChakras indicating that they had regained Christ Consciousness.

Even with all of the archetypes that were carefully anchored during the Piscean Age, Jesus and Mary Magdalene knew that it would be millennia before Humanity would really understand their message and reclaim our Divine Birthright as Beloved Children of God. It was obvious that our human egos were not going to relinquish their patriarchal control easily. The resistance would be great, and every possible effort would be made to suppress the role of Mary Magdalene and the Truth of our Mother God. Jesus confirmed this knowing in Revelations when he stated, “In the Day of the Seventh Angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God will be fulfilled and time will be no more.” He said this would involve the Second Coming of the Christ through a Baptism by Sacred Fire.

The Piscean Age was the Day of the Sixth Angel. Jesus is known as the Prince of Peace because of the Divine Qualities associated with the Sixth Solar Aspect of Deity, which was the predominant influence during the 2,000-year cycle of the Piscean Age. Jesus’ symbol is the fish, because he and Mary Magdalene were the Avatars of the Piscean Age, which is represented by the symbol of the fish.

                         The Shift of the Ages and the Birth of the New Earth.

Now we have entered the Age of Aquarius and the 7th Angel is beginning to sound.  During the next 2,000 years, the 7th Solar Aspect of Deity which pulsates with the Violet Flame will be the predominant influence on Earth.

During the past 25 years, Humanity en masse reached a tipping point that allowed for the return of our Mother God in profound and unprecedented ways. The I AM Presence of every man, woman, and child on Earth has made the choice to reclaim our Divine Birthright as Sons and Daughters of God and to return to Christ Consciousness. On December 21, 2012, we God Victoriously passed through the Shift of the Ages. On December 22, 2012, Humanity received a Baptism from our Mother  od-the Holy Spirit-that bathed Humanity and the Earth in 5th-Dimensional Crystalline Solar Sacred Fire. This paved the way for the God Victorious Birth of the New Earth into the 5th-Dimensional Realms of Cause.

On December 22, 2012 literally millions of awakened Humanity around the world focused the power of our attention on the Birth of the New Earth. Together we created a Forcefield of Divine Light that moved the Earth and ALL her Life through an unstoppable shift of energy, vibration, and consciousness. Now every particle of Life on Earth is abiding in frequencies of Divine Light that will transform this blessed planet into the patterns of perfection for our new Planetary Cause of Divine Love as we focus on them through our thoughts, words, actions, feelings, and beliefs. This is the beginning of the Renaissance of Divine Love Humanity is destined to cocreate in the physical world of form as we live, move, breathe, and act out of this new reality. Pay attention. Focus ONLY on what you want to cocreate on the New Earth through Love and Reverence for ALL Life.

With the Birth of the New Earth we have moved into a Higher Order of Being. Love is the Order of the New Day on Planet Earth. This is not just a lofty platitude or wishful thinking. This is the reality of the New Earth we are now living upon.  A supreme consciousness of Love is filtering into the heart and mind of every person on the planet. The masses of Humanity will soon “see with new eyes and hear with new ears.” Daily and hourly keep this inner knowing in your heart and mind. Pay attention to the Loving experiences manifesting all around you. You will be amazed at the things that are happening within Humanity that reflect a new consciousness of Love, Oneness, and Reverence for ALL Life.

Just for a moment, take a deep breath and enter the Divinity of your heart. Feel the elation pouring forth from our Father-Mother God and the Company of Heaven in response to the unprecedented Victory in the Light the I AM Presences of Humanity have cocreated. Never in the history of time has the collective energy, vibration, and consciousness of Humanity taken such a quantum leap into the frequencies of Light.

Throughout 2013, 2014, and 2015 the Company of Heaven will guide us through amazing opportunities that will accelerate the process of our tangible manifestation of the New Earth. All we have to do is ask. Those patterns of perfection exist right here, right now. These are wondrous times. Stay focused in the Light and pay attention. This is the beginning of our glorious New Reality.

And so it is!

JESUS DID NOT MEAN HE IS THE WAY, THE TRUTH, & THE LIFE

JESUS DID NOT MEAN HE IS THE WAY, THE TRUTH, & THE LIFE

Nancy B. Detweiler, M.Ed., M.Div.

Ascended Master Jesus

Understanding what Jesus meant by the I AM sayings[i] is extremely important because it changes the way we view ourselves in relationship to God.[ii]

We must keep in mind that all sacred texts available to Earth humans were written by people residing on the 3^rd dimensional plane of duality.  In addition, what we know as the Bible today has been translated numerous times from Aramaic, Hebrew, Greek, and Latin into our national languages, such as English, French, etc.  As all translators know, words in one language often do not have an equivalent word in another language.  For that reason, much of the original meaning can be lost in translation.  In addition, the meanings of words change as time passes.  The belief system of the translators also influences the choice of words they use in their translation.

As a result, the Bible contains numerous contradictions.  Still many Christians are taught that the Bible is the infallible Word of God and is literally true.  Christians are often taught to “stay in the Word,” meaning not to explore outside sources for answers to their questions about God and life.  “Don’t ask questions or you will lose your faith” is a frequent admonition given by religious leaders.  The reproof itself is an acknowledgement of uncertainty within a very shaky faith.  We do not know what we do not know and for many, this is a frightening fact.

This strong tendency to stay in the box created by religious leaders, creeds, and denominations has resulted in Christians closing their minds to anything new relating to their own spiritual nature.  Christians have feared to explore, to intuit Truth for themselves, and to go against the status que.  In order to remain one of the many, we stifle our true feelings, our questions about life, our innate urge to explore and find Truth for ourselves.  We even read Jesus’ encouragement to “seek and ye shall find” and “the truth will set you free” as if he meant seek only in the Bible and the truth you find there will set you free.  Christians forget that the New Testament did not exist during Jesus’ lifetime.  Any suggestions in the New Testament that we “stay in the Word” or “not change the Word” relate to the Old Testament because that was the only scripture known to the New Testament writers.

Near the end of the 19^th century and into the 20^th, teachers of advanced spiritual maturity began to incarnate to guide Earth humans in exploring metaphysical or hidden wisdom teachings regarding the Truth about God, our world, and ourselves.  Sadly, the churches rejected these teachings as pagan, heretical, and New Age.  What the church really meant is that the hidden wisdom did not conform with orthodox creeds/beliefs.  It feared its adherents would ask questions and lose interest in orthodoxy.  Teachers like Ernest Holmes (Science of Mind), Helen Blavatsky (Theosophy), and Charles Fillmore (Unity) were and are called leaders of cults—words used in a derogatory manner representing the condemnation of many religious authorities even though the teachings of these men and women have added greatly to Earth humans’ understanding of themselves and the laws by which the universe operates.

A.D.K. Luk was among the first to publish the teachings of Earth’s Ascended Masters, such as Ascended Master Kuthumi (formerly incarnated as Pythagoras, then later as St Francis of Assisi), who worked through Helen Blavatsky to form the Theosophical Society.   Ascended Master El Morya (formerly incarnated as Abraham) worked through Mark & Elizabeth Claire Prophet to create Summit University Press for the purpose of teaching and publishing the Ascended Masters’ teachings.  Ascended Master St. Germain (formerly incarnated as the Prophet Samuel and later as Joseph, father of Jesus) worked through America’s Founding Fathers to create a nation based on brotherhood and freedom for all.  I could go on and on with examples of how Earth’s Ascended Masters have assisted their unascended brothers and sisters on this planet as we travel the spiritual path to our own ascension.[iii]

Yet the churches have not possessed or encouraged the development of “eyes to see and ears to hear these hidden wisdom teachings.  This brings us back to the importance of understanding the meaning of the I AM sayings.

Reading the Gospel of John in accordance with Christian teachings, most do not question what they read.  The I AM sayings are found in this gospel, along with repeated statements by Jesus that should alert the reader to delve deeper.  Jesus never proclaimed himself as “The Way, the Truth, and the Life.”

He did repeatedly shift the attention from himself to the Father within.  “The Son can do nothing on his own, but only what he sees the Father doing; for whatever the Father does, the Son does likewise.”  John 5:19   “I can do nothing on my own.” John 5:30  “My teaching is not mine but his who sent me.” John 7:16    “The one who sent me is true, and I declare to the world what I have heard from him.” John 8:26    “I do nothing on my own, but I speak these things as the Father instructed me.” John 8:28b

Not only did Jesus deflect attention from himself to the Father, he taught us:  “I declare what I have seen in the Father’s presence; as for you, you should do what you have heard from the Father.” John 8:38    “I do not seek my own glory…. If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing.  It is my Father who glorifies me.” John 8:50     “The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own; but the Father who dwells in me does his works.”  John 14:10

Jesus again speaks to us “the one who believes in me will also do the works that I do and, in fact, will do greater works than these.” John 14:12    Jesus expected us to follow his example, NOT worship him.  Christianity teaches that “Jesus did it all.”  As a result, we make no effort to do the works that Jesus did and, in fact, exceed his works.  Christians are taught, instead, to love Jesus as Lord & Savior.  Self-realization is considered “New Age.”  Holistic growth—body, emotions, mind, and spirit—is not a part of Christian teachings.  Self-help books are often off-limits.  Yet, in John 15, Jesus states, “I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinegrower…  I am the vine, you are the branches.” John 15:1,5    Anyone who has seen a grapevine knows that the main vein is composed of the same substances as the branches—Jesus and all of humanity possess the same potential.  We are to learn to do all the works Jesus did and more.  With the Father as vinegrower, Jesus as the vein, and humanity as the branches, we are All One.

“Then Jesus cried aloud:  ‘Whoever believes in me believes not in me, but in him who sent me.  And whoever sees me sees him who sent me.” John 12:44

Jesus, the man, fully recognized that God dwelled within him, just as God dwells within each of us.  Jesus allowed God to speak through him—what we call channeling in today’s world.

One of the Ascended Masters’ teachings concerns the I AM PRESENCE within each of us.  When Christian religious leaders heard of the 20^th century I AM PRESENCE movement, they pronounced it “New Age” and not in accordance with Christian teachings.  Because religious leaders have ignored the hidden wisdom teachings, they are unaware of the ever-expanding cycles of time.  New Age simply means the beginning of a new 2000 years cycle, just as the 21^st century indicates the beginning of a new 100 years cycle and the New Year signifies the beginning of a new one year cycle.  Whether or not we set out to do so, we end up learning something new during each year and during each century; we are and will be learning much that is new in this New Age of Aquarius.

One of the major lessons will concern who we truly are, as indicated in Elizabeth Claire Prophet’s Divine Self Chart.[iv]

The top figure radiating light outward to the world is the I AM PRESENCE indwelling each of us.

 Jesus taught the Kingdom of God is within you.  Christianity has taught God as separate from us; we have personified God into our image and set him on a throne in heaven.  This personified God is a vengeful, angry God that demanded a blood sacrifice in order to appease his threats to punish us in an eternal hell of fire.   Sadly, in our personification, we have created an image of God that is far less than any of us can imagine being.  Which of us would require the blood sacrifice of one of our children so we, as parents, could bring ourselves to forgive another of our children?

Exodus 3 instructs us as to what Jesus meant when he said, “I AM the way, the truth, and the Life.”

 “Moses was keeping the flock of his father-in-law … he came to Horeb, the mountain of God.  There the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of a bush….  When the Lord saw that he had turned aside to see, God called to him out of the bush, ‘Moses, Moses!’ … I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob….  So come, I will send you to Pharoah to bring my people, the Israelites, out of Egypt….’  But Moses said to God, ‘If I come to the Israelites and say to them, The God of your ancestors has sent me to you, and they ask me, What is his name? what shall I say to them?’  God said to Moses, ‘I AM WHO I AM.’  He said further, ‘Thus you shall say to the Israelites, ‘I Am has sent me to you.’”

The Hebrew word horeb means desert or solitude.  Metaphysically, Horeb symbolizes a high place in conscious union with the divine.  In order to contact the Divine, we must enter the solitude of our heart and inner mind where dwells the I AM PRESENCE.[v]

When Jesus spoke the I AM sayings, he was using the name of God, I AM.  I AM is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, not Jesus.   Moses was sent by I AM to the Israelites in Egypt; Jesus was sent by I AM to the Israelites in Palestine.[vi]

In order for us to learn to do all the works that Jesus did, we must go to our inner Mount Horeb and become One with our I AM PRESENCE.  We are not separate from God; God indwells each of us.  I AM is the bread of life, the light of the world, the gate, and the resurrection and the life.

 We are the Temple of I AM!  Through Jesus and through us, I AM is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

2012 – THE YEAR OF OUR RESURRECTION & ASCENSION

2012 – THE YEAR OF OUR RESURRECTION & ASCENSION

Nancy B. Detweiler, M.Ed., M.Div.

        The 26,000 years cycle of the present Precession of the Equinoxes and our sojourn on the plane of duality draws to a close at the end of 2012—a journey that will resurrect us from darkness back into Light.

Around us, we behold a planetary society that is collapsing to make room for the new.  Every segment of our existing world will be transformed.  Nothing will be the same because we will no longer reside on the plane of duality (3^rd dimension).

We all chose to advance spiritually by living on a dimension in which we must learn to overcome darkness and become light.  Why?  Living on the plane of duality offered us the opportunity to evolve spiritually more rapidly than we could have if we had chosen to remain on the higher planes of light and love.  For that reason, many of us chose to incarnate on the plane of duality.  The Genesis narrative of Adam and Eve eating fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and evil is the symbolic story of our choice.  Rather than being sinful, this choice simply meant that we wanted to learn by being exposed to good and evil.  That way we could gain from our mistakes, through the unfolding of the Universal Law:  We reap what we sow.  However, in order to focus on the plane of duality, we had to die to conscious memories of the dimensions of Light.  Symbolically, we chose to leave the Garden of Eden and experience the world of duality.  Since then, Earth has been our classroom.

Before leaving the plane of duality, we need to understand how our history has unfolded.  We must examine our lives to determine how well we have learned our 3^rd dimensional lessons.  2012 marks exam time to determine whether or not we are ready for graduation.  We grade our own test paper.  No one judges us.  There is no punishment, except the knowing that we failed ourselves—if, in fact, we did.  Exam time is between us and our Soul.  The prerequisite to ascending to higher planes is that no negativity can accompany us there.

During 2012, we will experience the trauma of learning that life on 3^rd dimension has not been what it seemed.  We have lived in a matrix of lies and accepted them as the way life is.  We did so because we have descended so deeply into materiality that we presently use only 5% of our DNA and call the rest of our DNA strand junk DNA.  We habitually use only 10% of our brain power.  This means that humanity possesses a very constricted concept of who we actually are.  As a result, those, who have seized power through the thousands of years of our residency on the plane of duality, have withheld much information from us in order to render us complaint to their control.  Humanity has been enslaved in a variety of very subtle ways, most of which we are totally unaware.

For this reason, exam time during 2012 will consist largely of how we respond to the massive unveiling of lies that presently is, and will in the coming months, take place.  Once more, we stand at the Gates of Eden.  Do we qualify to re-enter those Gates and return to higher dimensions where we live in only Light and Love?  In order to do so, we must forgive and release all that is not of Love.  Until we know the complete content of the matrix of lies in which we have lived on the plane of duality, we cannot know how difficult forgiving all persons may be.  This will be our graduate examination.  Are we ready to forgive and release the past—even though the lies may have caused us great pain—so that we can resurrect to knowledge of the Truth?

As we face this exam, we must remember that we used God’s gift of freewill choice to evolve spiritually on the plane of duality.  That choice meant that evil would also be present to provide a contrast to good.  The lessons we chose to learn involved recognizing the good and always choosing it over evil.  Through the thousands of years on this plane, we have all made mistakes and reaped the consequences.  Hopefully, we have learned much.

One of the principal areas in which truth has been withheld is the field of religion.

Since I am familiar only with the Christian religion, I’ll speak to it.  Basically, Christians have been taught the following:

1.  We inherited sin from Adam and Eve, thus we were born sinners in need of salvation.

2.  We have only one life to live, represented by our present physical body.

3.  Upon the death of our physical body, it returns to dust and we go to either heaven or hell.

4.  We are separate from God and the only way we can be united with God is to accept Jesus as our personal Savior.

5.  We are separate from all other beings, all of creation.

6.  Even though the cosmos is boundless, Earth is the only planet on which human life exists.  We are alone in the cosmos.

7.  God loved us and sent his only begotten Son, Jesus, to die on the cross and save us from our sins.

8.  Jesus did it all.  We have only to accept him as our Savior and we are saved from eternal punishment in a hell of unquenchable fire.

9.  The End – we either walk the golden streets of heaven for eternity – or – we burn in hell for eternity.

The fact that we have accepted the above explanation of life is an indication that we really do not use but about 10% of our brain power.  We call the above list tenets of our faith.  We readily accept the religious authorities’ admonition:  “If you question your faith, you may lose it.”   Even though we may vehemently deny it, we are enslaved by the fear of being forbidden the keys to the kingdom.  Little do we know how tightly our minds are controlled.

Consider how often we refuse to investigate an area of thought because “it is not Christian.”  We have unknowingly given Christian doctrine priority over seeking Truth.  We have been taught that the Bible is The Word of God and that it tells us all we need to know.  Ponder how frequently we condemn a person or topic with the statement:  “The Bible calls it an abomination.”  We have settled for an extremely narrow world view.

The word eternity is a good example.  The medical profession tells us a baby is formed by the union of an egg and sperm.  Religion informs us that this baby is conceived and born in sin to live the only life he/she will have.  If the baby grows up to accept Jesus as Lord and Savior, then he/she will eventually die and spend eternity in heaven.  A favorite biblical verse is John 3:16: “For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, so that whoever believes in him should not perish , but have eternal life.”  In the Christian interpretation of this verse, eternal life is based on a decision to believe in Jesus.

The actual meaning of eternity is infinite time, without beginning or end.  Religion ignores the without beginning and dates its beginning for each individual as the time of our one physical birth.  In so doing, humanity is rendered capable of being controlled by fear.  We came from nothing and if we do not adhere to the established beliefs of the church, we will be condemned for eternity—only one life, only one chance.  Sadly, our minds are so controlled that we accept this world view as fact and are shocked when someone suggests otherwise.

 *************************************

         In 324 C.E. (A.D.), Constantine, Emperor of Rome, adopted Christianity as the state religion.  Thereafter, the cause of Rome and the cause of Christ became one.  As a result, Constantine’s commitment to the churches’ cause meant that he must also become involved in their conflicts, which were numerous.  He set up Councils of Bishops to solve the internal religious problems.  The decisions made by the Councils of Bishops became imperial policy with regard to ecclesiastical questions.[i]  Obedience to the king became synonymous with obedience to the church.

Throughout hundreds of years, controversies raged over the doctrines to be accepted by the Church.  Irenaeus, Bishop of Lyons, proclaimed:  “The real Church has one and the same faith everywhere in the world.”  The title of the article in which Irenaeus makes this statement speaks volumes:  The Refutation & Overthrow of the Knowledge Falsely So Called.[ii]  It was originally published in Irenaeus’ Selections from the Work Against Heresies.  Anyone daring to believe or teach anything other than the approved church doctrine—i.e. heresy—was mercilessly persecuted.  The freedom to seek truth on our own was very effectively eradicated.

The condemning of an acceptance of reincarnation seriously impeded Christians’ ability to understand who we truly are, thereby disempowering us as unique individuals.  This occurred in 553 C.E. (A.D.) during the 5^th Ecumenical Council when the writings of Origen (185-254 C.E.) were condemned.  A 4^th century Doctor of the Church, Saint Jerome, declared Origen to be the greatest teacher of the Church after the apostles.  Saint Gregory of Nyssa, 4^th century, affirmed Origen to be the prince of Christian learning in the 3^rd century.[iii]  Regardless, Origen’s work was declared heresy in 553 C.E. with the following threat to all Christendom.

        “If anyone does not anathematize Arius, Eunomius, Macedonius, Apollinarius, Nestorius, Eutyches, and Origen, as well as their heretical books, and also all other heretics who have already been condemned and anathematized by the holy, catholic, and apostolic church and by the four holy synods which have already been mentioned, and also all those who have thought or now think in the same way as the aforesaid heretics and who persist in their error even to death:  let him be anathema.” [iv]  Webster’s Dictionary defines anathema as a curse solemnly pronounced by ecclesiastical authority and accompanied by excommunication.

         The vehemence with which the Church regulated Christians’ beliefs is illustrated in a papal bull occurring hundreds of years later.  On May 15, 1252, Pope Innocent IV issued the As exstirpanda bull that “Authorized the use of torture for eliciting confessions from heretics, and authorized the execution of relapsed heretics by burning them alive during the Inquisition.” [v]

 ************************

         Christology offered a major source of contention.  Who was Jesus?  Was he divine or human or both?

Here, we must remember that all religions have been created on the plane of duality by less than perfect  human beings seeking to understand their world.  All sacred texts were composed by human beings living on the plane of duality.  Although inspiration played a role, all inspiration must first come through the personality of the writer.  The degree of truth to be found in any inspired writing is dependent upon the purity of the soul of the writer, the motivation of the writer, the selflessness of the writer.  The books to be included in a sacred text were determined by human beings living on the plane of duality.

A part of our graduate examination during 2012 is to accept that we chose, many lifetimes prior to our present incarnation, to evolve spiritually through a knowledge of good and evil.  In so doing, we died –we have  lived life operating with 10% of our actual brain power.  We forgot that we have lived thousands of lifetimes on Earth’s plane of duality.  We forgot that we have lived under the Universal Law We reap what we sow and therefore have had to reincarnate repeatedly on the plane of duality in order to balance with positive service to others the negativity we have previously sown.  This is how atonement is made—not through a blood sacrifice of a crucified Savior.

During the eons of our residing on the plane of duality, many Avatars (Great Teachers)[vi] have incarnated throughout the world to assist humanity in finding the Way back to Oneness with Creator God.  Even though the fact has been hidden from Christians, many of these Avatars/Saviors have been described with identical terminology.  We have ancient sculptures, paintings,writings, and archaeological artifacts that offer proof of this fact.  Ancient sacred texts have been translated into English.  Some researchers are trained in ancient languages and can read the originals.  Their findings reveal at least sixteen Saviors whose life narratives share the same events as Jesus would later experience:   Krishna of India, 1200 B.C.; Sakia Budha, 600 B.C.; Thammuz of Syria, 1160 B.C.; Wittoba of the Telingonese – 552 B.C.; Ioa of Nepal – 622 B.C.; Hesus of the Celtic Druids – 834 B.C.; Quexalcote of Mexico – 587 B.C.; Quirinus of Rome – 506 B.C.; Prometheus of  Caucasus – 547 B.C.; Thulis of Egypt – 1700 B.C.; Indra of Tibet – 725 B.C.; Alcestos of Euripides – 600 B.C.; Atys of Phrygia – 1170 B.C.; Crite of Chaldea – 1200 B.C.; Bali of Orissa – 725 B.C.; and Mithra of Persia – 600 B.C.[vii]  (Dates are approximate, according to Kersey Graves.)

Amulet depicting Orpheus crucified

According to http://www.truthbeknown.com/ this amulet may have

been created in the 2^nd or 3^rd century copying an earlier version.

“Lo! Streaming from the fatal tree

His all atoning blood,

Is this the Infinite? –Yes, “tis he,

Prometheus, and a God!

 

Well might the sun in darkness hide,

And veil his glories in,

When God, the great Prometheus, died

For man the creature’s sin.”[viii]

        Tremendous amounts of ancient artifacts, historical documents, books, and paintings were either destroyed in an effort to maintain one and the same faith or have been stored in the over 50 miles of shelves in the Secret Archives in Vatican City.[ix]  This has made objective research very difficult.

 *******************************

         In order to describe Jesus, the Church Fathers adopted the God-Man narrative and terminology that had existed for thousands of years.  The biographies of each Savior share common elements, such as born of a virgin … a star points the way to the birthplace of the new Savior … angels, shepherds, and Magi visit the infant … in several, gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh are given to the child … the 25^th of December marks the birthday of the gods … the babes are saved from destruction shortly after birth … they possess early signs of being advanced beyond the normal … their kingdoms are not of this world … they are called the only begotten Son of God … our Lord and Savior … they performed miracles … were baptized … crucified  as atonement for our sins … descended into hell … resurrected … and ascended  in the presence of others.[x]

“Saviors unnumbered have died for the sins of man and by the hands of man, and through their deaths have interceded in heaven for the souls of their executioners.  The martyrdom of the God-Man and the redemption of the world through His blood has been an essential tenet of many great religions.  Nearly all these stories can be traced to sun worship, for the glorious orb of day is the Savior who dies annually for every creature within his universe, but year after year rises again victorious from the tomb of winter.  Without a doubt the doctrine of the crucifixion is based upon the secret traditions of the Ancient Wisdom; it is a constant reminder that the divine nature of man is perpetually crucified upon the animal organism.” [xi]  Metaphysicians know these Saviors to be Earth’s Ascended Masters.  They continue to be present in the 5^th dimension and higher.  Ascended Masters maintain a personal relationship with all who so desire.  We call talking with them prayer.

 *****************************

         The Protestant Reformation did not take place until the 16^th century.  Therefore, Catholics and Protestants shared the same history for 1600 years.  The whole of Christendom has been psychologically marred by efforts to enforce one and the same faith.  Christian apologists have supplied a steady defense and proof of orthodox Christianity.  Our minds have been easily controlled by the fear of being condemned as a heretic and excommunicated.  A tribal consciousness  will gladly assist in enforcing the one and the same faith.  Called by various names, churches have presbyteries, elders, deacons that serve to weed out any heretical beliefs or teachings.  Ministers and professors are fired: reputations are ruined.  A layperson may be shunned and/or pronounced crazy by fellow congregants.   Minister and congregants are locked in a Catch 22 that very effectively prevents exploration for Truth.  For this reason, in recent decades, large numbers have left the church to search for Truth on their own.

The inability for the churches to explore and seek Truth has resulted in 2012—the year of our resurrection and ascension—arriving with multitudes still dead to the lies religions have propagated.  Will ministers and congregants awaken to the challenge of opening to new insights regarding who we are as divine beings coming to the close of our sojourn on the plane of duality?  Do we dare to open our minds and seek Truth?

Will we stand outside the Gates of the Garden of Eden and affirm our intention to resurrect from the dead and ascend with Mother Earth to the higher dimensions of consciousness?

2012 is the divinely established year for our resurrection and ascension!
