Peter: Today I would like to bring to Your attention two questions
received from Richard Schumert of San Francisco and one question from
Olga of Miami, Florida (Olga Barba’s mother). However, before going into
formulating these questions, I am humbly asking if You have anything to
contribute this morning for our elucidation and enlightenment.
The Lord Jesus Christ: I would be happy to answer Olga’s and
Richard’s questions. However, I would like to take this opportunity to talk
about something else first. The first issue that needs to be brought to your
attention, or to be reiterated, is something which is connected to the topic
discussed in Dialog 102 as related to My temptation in the place called
Gethsemane. As you remember from the content of that Dialog, in order to
be tempted by the negative state, it was necessary for Me to separate
Myself from My Divine Essence, called Father, and instead, anchor Myself
in the human portion of My Nature. In that condition, I was able to
experience everything that typical humans do: anxieties, fears, worries,
doubts and similar mental states, so inherent in human nature. Why am I
bringing these obvious facts to your attention at this particular time?
There is a parallel process going on between My experience and what I
was illustrating and demonstrating to the entire Creation, and what you,
occasionally, experience in your own lives.
As you know, as My representatives, whenever you are in that function or
role, you truly find yourself in the positive state and, during that time,
you are in the positive state. In that state, you have no doubts, fears,
anxieties, worries or any other similar unpleasant emotions or feelings.
However, in the moment you come down from that state (symbolically
speaking), you revert back to that portion of your nature which is typically
human. In your human state, you begin to have doubts, you feel uncertain
about anything and you behave, feel, think, relate, etc., as typical humans
do.
Take for example, your personal situation, Peter, in this respect. One of
your major problems is that you find yourself too frequently doubting
about the verity of the claims of My New Revelation and whether it is
truly Me who is dialoging with you or whether it is Me who gave you all
those ideas contained in all the books of My New Revelation. Your doubts
end, very often, in a state of anxiety, fear and almost terror that you
might be misleading others and yourself. In moments like that, you
anchored yourself in the human portion of your nature. Because of that,
you feel, think, act, behave, relate, etc., as any typical human does. Or
take for example, some of My representatives, who, as you learned today,
have a tendency to mistreat their spouses who are likewise My
representatives, but who respond to some situations not from being My
representatives but from the position of their human nature. The paradox
of this situation is in the fact that, if one spouse responds to something in
the other from the position of his/her own human nature, then they both
react to each other, not from Me in them, not from being My true
representatives, but as typical humans. In this particular case, one spouse
is sarcastic, cold, detached, ridicules the other, puts her/him down, is
arrogant and exhibits similar negative, but typically human
characteristics. The other spouse, in this case, responds with depression,
anxieties, fears, feeling miserable, rejected, unwanted, desperate and
doesn’t know what to do and how to proceed.
As you see from this example, whenever you respond to someone’s typical
human attitude or behavior, not from being My true representative but
from being a typical human, you open the door to the negative state to
induce into your own behavior nothing but something which is not
contained in the positive state. By the factor of your human nature, you
place yourself into the midst of the negative state. Thus, you become
negative. You succumb to the temptations of the negative state. On the
other hand, Peter, when you are transmitting our Dialogs, or when you
were transmitting other books of My New Revelation; when you are in the
company of My other representatives, discussing important spiritual
issues, you find yourself anchored in that portion of your nature which
stems directly from Me. During that time, you have no doubts about who
is the true Author of My New Revelation or about whether you are
deceiving others or yourself. In times like that you are experiencing
yourself as My messenger or My extension and process. You become truly
who you are in your essence and substance without the human mask. This
factor applies to all My representatives.
At this point in time, it is very important and crucial that you realize
these facts and learn to respond to each other or to yourself only and only
from the position of being My true representatives and not from the
position of your human nature. You have been warned several times that,
at the present time, the forces of the negative state are making an all-out
effort to separate you from your role and position as My true
representatives and permanently anchor you in your human nature. By
succeeding in this effort, they disable your ability to perform your duties
and responsibilities as related to being My representatives and instead,
they will utilize your energies for their own negative and evil purposes.
If someone who claims to be My representative is still prone to fall into
his/her human trap of mistreating someone by ridiculing, putting down,
being sarcastic, inconsiderate, arrogant and mean to his/her own spouse
or friend or whomever, then, by the factor of such behavior one
relinquishes, during that time, his/her privilege of being My true
representative. In that case, such a person removes himself/herself from
being in the positive state and places himself/herself instead into the
negative state. No matter how much such a person feels that he/she is
right in his/her attitude toward the other; no matter how much
justification and rationalization such a person would tend to offer for the
rightness of his/her behavior; no matter how inappropriate the other
person’s reaction and behavior was or is, there are absolutely no
justifications or excuses for such a reaction or behavior. If this were to be
the case with anyone of you, you would be strongly advised to amend your
ways immediately and rectify this adverse situation by asking for mercy
and forgiveness of that person to whom you behave like that, as well as
asking for My mercy and forgiveness and for mercy and forgiveness of
your own true self. By doing that, you will subsequently return to your
role and position of being My true representatives. Of course, as always,
only if you choose to do so by your own free will and choice.
The above discussed issue can be considered a practical one because it
deals with the everyday behavior, attitude and position of all of you. The
second issue, which I would like to discuss, is more of a spiritual-
philosophical one. In this case, you will have here a Dialog which would
contain both practical as well as spiritual-philosophical aspects of our
discussion. This particular issue relates to the important topic of intuition.
For some time now, Peter, you have been pondering about whether there
is more to the ways you can verify any truth at all than just by intuition.
Two days ago, as you were reading the Writings of Dr. Pieter Noomen,
this question came to your mind again and you felt appropriately that it is
time to deal with this issue during our dialoging. In one of the earlier
Dialogs, we have already defined the term ‘intuition,’ both from the
spiritual standpoint and from a typical scientific one. At this time
however, the issue is not about the nature of intuition, but whether there
is something more than just intuition available to the sentient minds for
arriving at the truth of any matter.
Let us look at this issue from a somewhat different perspective. What are
the methods by which the sentient mind can and may arrive at finding out
whether something is true or not, or whether it is so or not? Depending on
the position and placement of the sentient mind in the structural frame of
Creation or pseudo-creation, the very first method is rooted in the sentient
mind’s ability to be logical, analytical, intellectual and to possess a
reasoning faculty. By the process of reasoning, logic, analysis and
intellectual discernment, the sentient mind may come to the synthesis of
the explored factors and make right conclusions about them. This
important ability of the sentient mind stems from My Absolute External
Mind, which I imparted on all sentient entities in order for them to be in a
position to arrive at the right conclusions about anything at all by their
own external mind. There is a corresponding factor here in play. As you
know, the external mind of any sentient mind is in a corresponding
position to My Absolute External Sentient Mind. That Mind generates the
structural integrity to My Creation and to all its sentient minds. The
natural structural integrity consists of logic, reason, intellect, rationality,
analysis and synthesis. In this sense, you can say that, from the
structural point of view, the way My Absolute External Sentient Mind
operates, I am the Absolute Logic, Reason, Rationality, Intellect, Analysis
and Synthesis in an absolute sense. From this Mind of Mine derives all
knowable and unknowable laws, principles, order, elegance, harmony,
cohesiveness and everything else by which and through which the proper
function and maintenance of My Creation is executed.
Because of this corresponding factor existing between the Absolute Mind
and the relative sentient mind, the relative sentient mind has the ability
to deduce and/or to induce the right conclusions about any observable, as
well as some other, phenomena. Unfortunately, it was this particular
ability which was utilized for the purpose of activation and establishment
of the negative state. Notice, please, that this happened in the most
external position in Creation from the very external factors derived from
My Very External Mind. Nothing of negative nature could come even
remotely close for the purpose of its derivation from any other state and
condition but by, through and of the means of the external mind. It is
always the external mind which is in the position of being able to abuse
anything contained in its reasoning repertoire. By the factor of this abuse,
the external mind can justify, excuse, substantiate and rationalize at will
any of its conclusions and positions about anything at all. This is how the
sentient entities in the negative state and humans are able to effectively
convince themselves about the righteousness of their cause. By this ability
of the sentient mind, anyone can and may justify anything one wants.
Take, for example, the statistical correlation between some kind of cause
and effect. Is the effect really the result of some kind of cause? Or is it
incidental and accidental, not rising above the chance level? Any
researcher who tries to measure such correlations, very often, gets the
results that, usually, favor his/her own expectations. He/she can
beautifully justify and prove that his/her point and/or conclusions must be
right because of the results of his/her measurements. So, this factor
becomes circular, because the expectations feed the results and the results
confirm the expectations. No wonder that someone else who tries to
replicate the results of some other researcher in this respect, frequently
comes to entirely different conclusions. This is how the endowed abilities
of the external mind can and may be abused, misused and improperly
used by anyone. And this is how the pseudo-being and pseudo-existence of
the negative state and human life are continuously being justified and
rationalized.
At the present time, the only way you can get any right conclusions based
on this particular method of exploration and verification, is by proper
intentional and motivational factors, excluding all and any of your own
expectations, projections and subjective needs and desires. If you
approach by the means of this methodology anything at all for the sole
purpose of learning the truth, for the sake of truth itself, for the sake of its
real objective existence, this method can be very beneficial and useful. It
can lead you to the discovery of real truth. Otherwise, you will arrive at
only distortions and falsities.
The second method for discovery of truth and whether something is true
or not; or whether it is so or not, is by means of intuition. Intuition, in its
nature, essence and substance, transcends the first method discussed
above. Or it precedes the logical, rational, intellectual, analytical,
synthetic and reasoning processes of the external mind and then,
subsequently, it utilizes them for further confirmation and verification of
its own conclusions. This ability stems from the interior sentient mind (or
intermediate sentient mind) which, in turn, gets this ability from My Own
Absolute Interior Mind. During utilization of this particular method one
turns oneself inward and seeks to find a so-called sixth sense which would
indicate to him/her, beyond a shadow of doubt, whether something is true
or not. There are various degrees and aspects to this particular method
called intuition. Because it stems from My Absolute Interior Mind, in its
very source, it has Absolute Mental Quality. This Quality generates Its
nature to the level of any sentient mind relevant to each individual’s
personalized and individualized makeup and to the specific nature of
his/her unique mentality. Because each individual is inherently different
and unique, so is the level of his/her intuition unique and different, giving
it the nature of being of various degrees and levels congruent to the needs
of each particular individual.
Due to the factor of very specific individualization and personalization of
intuition, it cannot be misused, abused or perverted by anything of a
negative nature. However, it can easily be blocked, repressed, suppressed,
overruled or disregarded by its carrier. So, in order for the effectiveness of
this method to be in place, you need to listen to it and follow its direction,
overruling any desires of your external mind to disregard the voice of your
intuition.
Under presently existing conditions on planet Zero, this method is the
only one which is able to truthfully verify and confirm anything related to
the truth, or anything else, for that matter. As you remember, in your
intuition, My presence in you and with you, from the position of My
Absolute Interior Mind, is the most intense and the most discernable. This
was purposefully established by Me, in order to give humans a tool, which
would enable them to bypass their external mind’s tendencies to distort
and falsify things and then use its ability to rationalize and justify them
by its pseudo-logic, convincing itself that it is true.
However, as you know, Peter, at the present time, under the presently
existing conditions on planet Zero and in the negative state in general,
this method was, in most of its components, deleted from their
consideration. It was reserved only for My true representatives and for the
covert members of My positive state, situated on planet Zero. Moreover, in
order to sharpen their intuition, recently, I have released from My
Absolute Interior Mind, a different aspect of intuition, related to that
portion of their endowment which came directly from Me. This special
type of intuition, or one of its many aspects, relates to your ability to read,
understand, accept and apply everything contained in My New
Revelation. From now on, anyone who will approach the reading of My
New Revelation in any of its sources, if approached with positive and good
intent and motivation, for the sake of learning, accepting and practicing
the Truth, which it contains, will be endowed with this special type of
intuition in addition to any other of its aspects. On the other hand, the
rest of humanity and everyone in the negative state, is in the process of
being anchored more and more in their external rationalization,
justification, substantiation and pseudo-logical ruminations about the
rightness of their pseudo-cause and thus, getting further and further
away from anything intuitive and internal, thus, from anything which
contains the real truth.
Now we are coming to the question whether there is something more than
the above described two methods. Your intuition, Peter, was telling you
that it is very much possible that there is more to it than just the first and
second method for the acquirement of any type of knowledge and for
recognizing, accepting and practicing the truth in all its aspects as related
to anything at all. If the first method — logic, reason, intellect, rationality,
analysis and synthesis — derives, in its original and genuine condition,
from My Absolute External Mind; and if the second method — intuition in
all its aspects and manifestations — derives from My Absolute Interior
Mind, then it must be obvious that there is something which would
transcend any of these methods and which therefore, would derive from
My Absolute Most Within Spiritual Mind. And this is the truth of the
matter. There are two important aspects to this third method. One is
derived from the overall State and Condition of My Absolute Spiritual
Mind. This one was initially and originally imparted on all inhabitants of
the most within spiritual dimension of My Creation. This method of
knowing has not been available to anyone else in other dimensions or to
humans or to you, My representatives. Their and your position required a
different approach. If all of you have had this particular method, the
negative state, and the human life in all its aspects, could never have been
activated and could never have been able to provide for all one of the most
vital answers to the multiversal question about the nature of the other
type of life other than the life of the positive state.
In this particular aspect, the inhabitants of that dimension apply their
own natural and inborn insight which gives them immediate grasp,
understanding, acceptance and practice of all aspects of truth, bypassing
any logic, reason, analysis, synthesis and intuition. Because of their
particular state, they have no need for any of those methods. They simply
know whether something is true or not; or whether it is so or not without
any input from logic or intuition.
The second important aspect of this method of knowing is rooted in that
aspect of My Nature which was previously designated in recent Dialogs as
My Absolute Core. As you remember, it is this Core which is unnamable,
incomprehensible and unapproachable to anyone, no matter where and
when they are situated at any given time. This particular aspect, up to
this point, has not been available to anyone. So far, it has not been
released. However, as you know, with the ending of this cycle of time, with
the establishment of the transitional period before commencement of the
next cycle of time and with the preparation of release of the entirely new
and different Aspect from My Absolute New Nature, this method will
become available at that time. The preceding energies of all these factors
influenced your intuition, Peter, and that of Dr. Pieter Noomen’s, so that
you could arrive at the conclusion that there must be something more in
this respect than just intuition and logic, reason, intellect and all their
other aspects by which they search and arrive at the truth.
Now, the full nature of this method, or any of its aspects, is premature to
reveal. The only thing that can be said about it at this time, is that it will
be the most special, the most unusual, the most beautiful and the most
inspiring combination, integration, unification and application of the
above described three methods, giving birth to the fourth method which
will transcend all and everything available up to that point. At this point
in time, under the presently existing conditions of your positioning and
role, as humans, you have no possible ideas, words, concepts, images,
pictures or whatever, which would be able to give you even the most
remote notion about what this method will be like. The reason for this is
because it is integrally connected to the release of a new and different
aspect of My Absolute New Nature. Because it will be entirely new, it
cannot be comprehended from the position of the old, or from the position
which precedes that new. You would have to be in the new position
already in order to have some notion about the true nature of the new
method of knowing. You are still far away from that new position.
However, by this revelation, you are being prepared for that new to be
established in your lives when the time comes. It will not be before your
recall.
This is all, Peter, that I wanted to contribute today. You may go ahead
and formulate your questions on behalf of the enquirers.
Peter: It is interesting to note that last night I was asked to inquire about
the meaning, if any, of multiple births, such as, for example, twins,
triplets, or even sextuplets; and this morning, when I scanned my daily
newspaper, I found there an article titled “An increase in multiple births.”
This factor is interesting in that, it talks about the desire of older women
to get pregnant and, for that purpose, using fertility drugs. As a result,
they get multiple births. Talk about coincidences, isn’t it? Any comment
on this phenomenon? This question came from Olga of Miami, Florida.
The Lord Jesus Christ: Well, Peter, by now you know very well that no
coincidences exist. In the past, when, for the purpose of balancing out the
negative state by the positive state, and the negative state balancing out
the positive state, the birth of twins, and very rarely of triplets or even
quadruplets, was by the influence of both the positive state and the
negative state. As you know, twins can be either maternal or fraternal. At
those times, sometimes, there was an agreement amongst those who
wanted to incarnate on planet Zero either from the positive state or from
the negative state, respectively; or by some ideas of two sexually engaged
typical humans. They agreed, for some important spiritual reasons, to
share the same genetic, familial, environmental, social and physical
factors under which they would be born. One of these reasons was to
illustrate and demonstrate the factor of spiritual and mental differences of
one’s spirit and one’s soul. The issue here was to show the total
independence of the spirit’s and the soul’s unique characteristics on any
physical, genetic, familial, environmental, social or any other external
factors. The way you have to understand this statement is in the fact that,
no matter how externally similar the twins or triplets, or whoever were,
even to the point that no one could distinguish them physically and
externally by their physical appearance of who was who, nevertheless, in
their spirit, soul, attitude, behavior, likes and dislikes, they were totally
different.
This fact was necessary to illustrate to all in My Creation and pseudo-
creation, in order to refute the notion that one can be exactly the same as
any other individual. This was a tour de force of the negative state, trying
to convince everyone that individuality is nothing and commonality and
uniformity is everything. All those multiple births that were initiated
from the negative state, were in an attempt to establish such a proof. The
forces of the negative state were hoping that by enabling such multiple
births, they could somehow accomplish such commonalities and
uniformities and by that factor, they would be able to convince themselves
and their followers that they were the true originators of their brand of
pseudo-life and that I had nothing to do with it.
Moreover, this phenomenon demonstrated My Absolute Nature in that,
My Life, and Energies of that Life, from which any possibility of any life,
including the human life and the pseudo-life of all in the negative state
was/is possible, was/is manifested in infinite varieties of presentations in
the unique forms and contents of any sentient entity, and therefore, it is
never redundant, no matter how much it looks the same, externally.
However, as you know, at the present time, the factor of balancing is no
longer in place. No one is born on your planet from the positive state.
Neither are any typical humans born any longer. The only births that are
still possible are either from the negative state or by the negative ideas of
two humans. Because the factor of pseudo-winning of the negative state
on planet Zero is in place, an all-out effort is made by the forces of the
negative state to populate your planet as soon as possible with its agents.
For that reason, human women are infused with an irresistible desire,
craving, and almost lust, to have children. This desire, Peter,
unfortunately, you were witnessing even with some of those in Europe
who read and accept The New Revelation of The Lord Jesus Christ.
For those women who have been infertile up to this point, the forces of the
negative state, through their human scientific minions, came up with a
fertility drug, which makes it possible for them to have multiple births.
Still, the unique individuality and personality is preserved in all of them,
no matter what. Of course, the purpose for this situation is no longer in
trying to prove the above mentioned point. It is solely for overpopulating
your planet with the negative state’s own agents so that the lifestyle of a
purely negative nature could be established.
One interesting factor of this pseudo-winning is in the fact that the
resources of planet Zero, needed for maintenance of any life forms on it,
are dwindling very fast. If they are gone completely, then no life could be
supported on your planet. In that case, the negative state’s pseudo-
winning would be, at the same time, its own demise because the parasite
would destroy its host on which it is feeding. Therefore, the negative state
would die likewise. This is one of the possible scenarios of how the
negative state could end. As you see from this particular scenario, by its
foolishness, stupidity and insanity, the negative state is capable of
destroying itself from within itself without utilization of any outward force
on the part of the positive state. And multiple births on your planet are an
excellent contributory factor to this self-destruction. And this is all that
can be said in response to Olga senior’s question.
Peter: Thank You very much for Your meaningful answers. May we
proceed now with Richard’s questions? Also, in the meantime, I received
an additional request for clarification of the concept or term ‘Fire’ which
was used in description of Your Absolute New Nature. What is its positive
connotation as related to Your Nature?
The Lord Jesus Christ: Yes, Peter, you may.
Peter: Richard Schumert is asking about the meaning and significance of
single cell life forms, such as, bacteria, microbes, germs, viruses, amoebas,
protozoans and similar microscopic and submicroscopic entities. His
second question is about Moses. Why was he not allowed to cross the river
of Jordan, no matter how much he asked You for forgiveness for his one
and only blunder?
The Lord Jesus Christ: The meaning and purpose of these single sub-
life forms can be derived, in a general sense, from what was revealed
about the animal life forms in the Eighty Fifth Dialog. These single cell or
sub-cell life forms are correspondences of the most basic, sub-elemental
components of thought processes of the sentient minds. In the positive
connotation, originally they derived from My Absolute Thought Process as
very sub-elemental and basic particles of that Process needed for the
maintenance and proper function of all ideas of life in all its
manifestations. In the relative sentient mind’s thought processes, they are
correspondences of their own needs to take care of the sentient
environment in a functional whole in order to preserve the continuous
flow of proper energies for the healthy and normal run of all aspects of life
— from the most basic, sub-elemental to the most intricate macro life
forms. These aspects of the sentient mind’s thought processes, in the
process of their projection to the most external or physical dimension,
appear as various microbes, bacteria, and similar single cell life forms,
that help maintain proper balance of the living organism. The
consequences and outcomes of these sub-elemental aspects of the sentient
mind’s thought processes are generated on the least conscious level of that
mind.
In the negative connotation of their meaning, as the originators and
activators of the negative state begin to produce the negative thought
processes on their very elemental and sub-elemental level, they gave rise
to something which, in its essence, was directed toward the destruction of
anything positive and good. In most instances, these sub-elemental
products of the thought processes are unconscious. Originally, there was a
tendency to imitate everything the way things were done in the positive
state, only with an opposing purpose. Thus, in order to maintain the
pseudo-life in its negative connotation, the way the true life has been
maintained in the positive state in its positive connotation, by the factor of
opposition and separation from anything positive, the sentient mind of the
pseudo-creators, on its sub-elemental level, began to produce all necessary
ingredients for such maintenance. As a result, through its corresponding
factors, in the physical dimension of the Zone of Displacement and on
planet Zero, these particular sub-elemental aspects of thought processes,
appeared as life-threatening microbes, bacillus, bacteria, viruses, retro-
viruses, and similar destructive single-cell sub-elemental organisms. The
production of these very negative and destructive types of sub-life forms
was originally utilized as a weapon for poisoning and destroying the
atmosphere and sphere of the positive life forms. The originators and
activators of the negative state, in their effort to establish a totally
different lifestyle than that of the positive state’s, were hoping to utilize
these sub-elemental thought processes, through their corresponding
projection into these sub-life forms, for eradication of anything positive
from their domain.
Unfortunately for them, their effort in this respect backfired in the sense
that once anything of this nature is produced, by its unruly nature, it has
a tendency to multiply by the law of geometrical progression and
subsequently, it becomes uncontrollable. And not only that, but it
continuously mutates into some different combinations which are almost
impossible to manage or eradicate by any known means. This factor
clearly illustrates the very nature of the negative state. As opposed to the
nature of the positive state, everything in the negative state is disorderly,
unruly, unlawful and unmanageable. If you want to establish a lifestyle
which is to be totally and completely opposing anything contained in that
other life with which you don’t want to have anything in common, you
have no recourse but to become everything that is not positive, orderly,
lawful, beautifully managed and elegant. This factor is reflected very well
in the behavior of the sub-elemental single sub-cell life forms produced by
such a negative design, stemming from negative and evil thought
processes.
On the other hand, in comparison with destructive ones, the positive sub-
elemental sub-life forms, stemming from positive thought processes of the
sentient minds in the positive state, don’t have the same tendencies as the
negative ones. In their own environment and function, they behave
orderly, lawfully and elegantly, helping the living organism in its proper
function. This fundamental difference in the behavior of these two sub-
entities, clearly illustrates the true nature of the positive and good
thought processes and the true nature of the negative and evil thought
processes. And this is all that can be said about this issue at this time.
Now, to the question about Moses. As you remember, Peter, whenever you
were reading that portion in the Bible which dealt with My refusal to
allow him to enter the so-called Promised Land, located beyond the river
of Jordan, you always felt very bad for Moses and you were almost angry
at Me for not allowing him to have the privilege of entering that land. As
you know, that was a typical human stance on your part. In other words,
you were looking at the whole situation as it was played out on the scene
and not behind the scene. But what was really happening behind the
scene? The answer to this question can be found in to what Moses’
position and role corresponded at that time. First of all, as you are aware,
for those times, Moses was the most humble person on planet Zero. In
that he represented My Absolute Humbleness, Modesty and Humility.
Secondly, you can consider Moses as being My very first and the only
representative on planet Zero at that time. Thirdly, he was the very
embodiment of My Absolute Divine Law and Order by which the life of My
Creation is maintained and runs its proper course. Fourthly, Moses
represented both My Divine Essence and Substance as well as My Future
Human Nature. His behavior, actions, mode of thinking, relating and
conveying things were all representative of the nature of the positive state
and My Absolute Nature in his relative condition. In essence, Moses
represented the totality of all Divine Laws, Principles and Establishments
by which any functional and positive life is made possible. This was a
representation of the reality of the positive state.
On the other hand, don’t ever forget with what kind of people Moses was
dealing. As you remember, from his final song that he was to teach the
children of Israel, shortly before I took him away and hid his physical
body from them so that they wouldn’t make an idol for worshiping out of
it, he very vividly described their nature as the most stubborn, unruly,
stiff-necked, disobedient, hard-core, inconsiderate, arrogant, and
spiritually totally blind and fully externalized. Moses told them very
straightforwardly that they were chosen by Me not because they were the
best and most deserving amongst all other nations, existing at that time
on planet Zero, but, in fact, because they were the worst. On them, My
infinite patience, long-suffering, mercy and forgiveness could have been
demonstrated and illustrated the best.
At the same time, however, Moses was also a human, with all aspects of
the nature of being a human. In that he illustrated the difference of what
it is to be a typical human and what it is to be My true representative. In
the role of being My true representative, his behavior was from the very
Divine which he had in him from Me. In that position, he acted and
behaved as the most positive and kind person. However, when he was
provoked by stiff-necked and disobedient people in his ultimate ability to
keep his role as My true representative, he slipped, for a moment, into his
human nature and became furious at the children of Israel, not believing
that I would be able to produce drinking water from the rock in the middle
of the desert. So, instead of once, he struck the rock twice, hoping that no
water would be coming from it. Instead, the water came out of the rock in
unusual abundance. What are the spiritual correspondences here? The
rock, in this particular connotation, represented the natural truth as
manifested in its faith. Water was pure spiritual truth that is made
available to anyone, based on the acceptance of the natural truth and
having faith in its existence. Striking into the rock twice means denial of
this substantial and life-giving faith and not believing in any spiritual
truth. That nevertheless, water poured out abundantly from the rock
signifies that My Divine Truth Lives and is available to everyone no
matter how much it is denied and disregarded.
The consequence of Moses’ unfaithfulness in this particular case was that
he denied himself the possibility of entering the Promised Land or, in this
case, to the positive state, because you can enter there only by means of
the acceptance of pure spiritual truth through and by your personal faith
into its power and potency. Moses represented, in this case, the
consequences of rejection of Divine Truth and anchoring himself in the
negative aspects of the typical human nature. Don’t forget to what kind of
people he was representing all these facts. In his case, any deviation from
bringing about the consequences of his actions, would set up a very bad
example for those people who were very evil in their nature. If I were to
listen to Moses’ request, and allow him to enter the so-called Promised
Land, by not showing clearly the consequences of his wrong attitude, I
would forever reinforce the evilness of the children of Israel, and they
could never be saved or converted to the positive state. For the sake of
their future saving, I and Moses agreed to play out this important
scenario. Moreover, I and he knew very well, that the so-called physical
Promised Land was not the real positive state but only an appearance of
and correspondence to the positive state. Otherwise, the children of Israel
wouldn’t end up as they did, following their occupation of that land.
Instead, after I, in a moment of time, showed Moses all aspects of the
Promised Land, I took him to the real one situated in the positive state of
the spiritual world. So, personally, he didn’t suffer any harm or he wasn’t
deprived of anything at all. All he was deprived of was putting up further
with arrogant, stiff-necked and stubborn people and their unbearable
disobediences and temptations to which they were continuously exposing
Me and him. And this is all that can be said about Moses’ case at this
particular time. More on Moses will be in the next Dialog (106).
Now, the issue of the term “Fire” as related to My Absolute Nature. It
should be very much obvious by now what the positive connotation of fire
is. Take for example, your Sun which is a huge ball of constantly and
unceasingly burning fire. By it, the life on your planet is made possible.
The warmth and light of your Sun provides all life on your planet with the
necessary conditions for that life to flourish. I am the Absolute Sun of My
Creation. The Fire of My Love and its Wisdom continuously radiates and
emanates warmth and light to all living, breathing and existing entities
by which they are enabled to live, be alive and to properly function. This is
the positive connotation of the term “Fire.” Even in your everyday life, fire
has many positive connotations. You cook your meal with fire; you boil
your water with it; you heat your house; you utilize fire in many industrial
and commercial enterprises. Of course, as anything else, fire also has its
negative correspondences, utilized by the forces of the negative state for
their negative and evil purposes. But even in that connotation, if you look
at its meaning behind the scene, fire has a purifying effect, burning out all
impurities, and setting up a new condition for building something afresh.
Have you ever experienced fire burning in your heart or chest? What
about the fire of love, compassion, etc. or, in the negative sense, the
burning fire of hate? The Fire of My Love ignited the very life of My
Creation and all living and breathing in it. This is the reason I also can be
called as Absolute Fire; and in this sense, Fire is Me and I am Fire. Does
it answer your question, Peter, on behalf of Betty, Heather, Ardyth and
Leilani?
Peter: Well, I have always known the answer to this question. To tell you
the truth, I was a little surprised that they could even come up with the
need for having the answer to something which is so obvious. But, after
all, if it was asked, obviously it needed clarification because someone else
would have the same question. Is there anything else today?
The Lord Jesus Christ: Yes, Peter, it is so. This clarification about the
term “Fire” was needed to be clarified. And no, nothing more today. Go
and rest now.
