Putting Conspiracies in Perspective

(NOTE: A couple years after the war in Iraq was underway Bush’s popularity had taken a dive and he was accused of being an idiot, on one hand, and a mastermind of all kinds of conspiracies on the other. Many also compared him to Hitler. This seems to have started a trend of comparing all presidents who followed to Hitler. This post begins with a spoof making fun of the conspiracies and ends with a serious examination of the Hitler accusation that could be used with other presidents besides Bush.)

Bush, The Conspiracy Genius
The real truth behind the conspiracy theories and Bush goes much deeper than anyone imagined, except for a chosen few.

Contrary to the thinking of many, Bush is not a stupid bungler. That is a facade he puts forward through the right-wing press to trick the masses. In reality he is an evil genius who would put Hitler to shame.

He not only can speak perfect English, but really knows how to say the word “nuclear.” By dumbing himself down he creates the illusion that he couldn’t possibly be smart enough to mastermind a complex conspiracy.

Through secret files and contacts, I have put together the real story, revealed here for the first time.

Bush’s first power grab began November 1963 at age 17 when he was on a visit to Dallas with his parents. As the family was having a nice picnic in a park young Bush stumbled across an unusual man named Lee Oswald. They both struck up a conversation about guns and Bush was fascinated at Oswald’s claims of his shooting abilities. To this Bush replied, “Kennedy is coming here tomorrow. I’ll bet you couldn’t even hit a big target like him.”

“OH Yeah,” said Oswald. “What do you want to bet?”

“A hundred bucks,” said young Bush.

“Deal!” said Oswald.

The next day Oswald shot Kennedy and was captured shortly thereafter. Oswald secretly got word to Bush through a courier named Jack Ruby that he wanted the $100 to help with his defense or he was going to finger Bush as a co-conspirator.

Bush did not have the hundred, but did have fifty dollars. He offered the $50 to Ruby if he would kill Oswald. Since Ruby did not like the idea that Oswald killed Kennedy he accepted and took care of him.

This was the first display of the evil genius of Bush. He garnered two major assassinations for only $50, a feat not duplicated by anyone else in history.

A couple years later Robert Kennedy found out about Bush’s part in the assassination and so Bush hypnotized Sirhan Sirhan to eliminate him as a problem. Then during his college years Bush through his contacts at Skull and Bones played both sides of the coin. On one hand he was that unidentified national guardsman who fired the shot at Kent State, and, on the other, he raised money to pay off communist plants among the students at Berkeley other colleges to raise hell.

Later, it was Bush, not Mark Felt, who was the true Deep Throat who exposed Watergate to Woodward and Bernstein. The reason he knew all the facts was that he was the mastermind behind the whole burglary to take down the Democrats. Again we see the genius of Bush. He was the only player who escaped unscathed and undetected.

It was Bush who tampered with the helicopter engines that caused disaster during Carter’s rescue attempt during the Iran hostage crisis. This made Cater look like a bungler and paved the way for the election of Reagan.

Bush wanted Reagan to invade Canada and make it the 51st state. When he refused, he hired John Hinkley to send him a message. The assassination attempt did not force Reagan to invade Canada, but he did invade Granada. This seemed to pacify Bush.

I could go on and on about the genius of this mastermind conspirator who has been behind conspiracy after conspiracy with impunity.

The most famous of them all was 911. Again he was the mastermind who arranged for the planes to fly into the buildings and the cover-up. Since conspiracy buffs know about this I will not go into details. Instead, I will tell you about a Bush exploit of which Michael Moore is not even aware.

Too much attention was being placed on the problems in Iraq and Bush needed a diversion. He thought he would kill a few Islamic terrorists in Indonesia at the same time as creating diversion so he dropped a 100-megaton atomic bomb in the Indian Ocean on a fault line. This created largest earthquake in recent memory causing the giant Tsunami which killed over 150,000 Moslems and left millions homeless. This sent an underground message to the terrorists to not mess with Texas.

Bush’s greatest stroke of conspiratorial genius was getting hold of Tesla’s secret weather technology in 2005. He used this to create Hurricane Katrina to destroy a democratic stronghold. Just to make sure he got the job done he sent some scuba divers with explosive to blow up the dikes in New Orleans.

It would take a book to detail the genius of this serial conspirator. Think of almost any problem we have and Bush is behind it. AIDS – yep, Bush masterminded that one. The real killer of Nicole Simpson? OJ keeps looking but he’ll never know it was Bush.

Have you been hearing a high-pitched sound that is barely audible? Take a moment of silence and listen. You hear it, don’t you? This is a brain wave signal sent out by the inner government under Bush to control your mind so you will accept Bush as the ruler of the new world order to come.

And that itch you have that keeps returning…? Bush again. You don’t want to know what that is about.

You may read this and chuckle, but I assure you that there are million of conspiracy believers out there that will be nodding their heads at a number of these items because of a belief that Bush is a great conspirator.

There’s always been an extreme fringe who has seen the current president, whoever he is, as a conspirator or a tyrant like Hitler, but until now that number has been so low that we’ve been able to ignore them and the country moves on.

The situation with Bush is different. An alarming number of people accuse him of all kinds of conspiracies and evil. Many see him as worse than Hitler or Saddam Hussein. Now if he were really like Hitler we could understand such sentiment, but Bush is so far removed from him that one must conclude that only an extremely divisive people or group would participate in such accusations.

This leads us to Fallacy number Five. Bush is like Hitler or worse.

This comparison is so far removed from reality that it produces an illusion that should be easy to dispel with common sense. Unfortunately, many political activists lack this essential characteristic.

One of the main reasons that this comparison is made is an ignorance of history by this generation, for if one has made even a cursory study of Hitler and World War II then one must conclude that such a comparison has to arise from deep seated reactionary lower emotions.

It is popular in this age of political activists to call anyone they disagree with a Hitler or any group they do not like Nazis. These terms are brandied about with such whimsicalness that if a real Hitler were to arise he would not be recognized and probably even embraced by those who claim to abhor such a man.

Comparisons

[1] Hitler had visions of world conquest from his youth. Bush was more interested in partying and having a good time. He showed little interest in politics let alone world conquest.

[2] Shortly after Hitler joined the Nazi Party he tried to take over the German government by force and was sentenced to five years in prison, but only served nine months.

After Bush became active in politics he sought office and power through established legal methods.

[3] While in jail Hitler wrote Mein Kampf where he laid out his plans for world conquest.

Bush has never said or written anything that hints at plans for world conquest.

[4] After Hitler came to power he had his political enemies killed.

Bush attempted to makes friends and work with his political enemies.

Example One: He invited Ted Kennedy to the White house to watch the Movie “Thirteen Days” which highlighted the best of the Kennedy Presidency. Later he worked with him on an education package that went against the advice of his own party.

Example Two: After a member of the Noble Peace committee bragged that they gave Jimmy Carter the prize as a slap in the face to Bush and Carter used his acceptance speech to criticize the President’s actions you would think that Bush would have looked for an opportunity to put Carter down. Instead, he called Carter the next day with congratulations and praise. Carter was later invited to the White House and praised again by Bush. Since that time Carter has broken protocol many times and openly criticized Bush, but Bush has said nothing negative about him.

[5] Hitler considered those who were not of his race to be inferior and not worthy of leadership or government positions.

Bush has taken more interest in working with minorities than any Republican president in a hundred years and has placed more minorities in key positions than democratic presidents such as Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter. He began with two blacks in his cabinet – Powell and Paige, and of course Condoleezza Rice as National Security Advisor and later Secretary of State. In addition, three women were in his cabinet as well as a Cuban and an Asian. He has also appointed numerous minorities as judges.

Bush appears to be totally opposite to Hitler in the area of prejudice.

[6] Hitler sought conquest, even though none of those he attacked, posed any threat to him or their neighbors. Austria and Czechoslovakia were virtually given to Hitler by Europe to keep the peace. This was not enough so he attacked Poland, a nation that was a threat to no one, thinking he had world conquest within his grasp.

After conquest was complete the Nazis completely controlled the government and tortured or killed all who opposed the iron hand. Democracy was out of the question.

There is no record of Bush having any thoughts of conquest or even giving a lot of thought to war before becoming president. His goal was to concentrate on domestic concerns and become the “compassionate conservative” president.

911 forced the war on terror upon him. Without this event he probably would have erred on the side of peace rather than war. This event awoke a responsibility in him. He expresses this as stating that he does not want to leave the terrible threats we face for a future president to solve when the situation will be even more difficult.

[7] When Hitler conquered a country the voice of the people was suppressed and the government was completely placed into Nazi hands. Those who did not cooperate were killed. The people mourned and prayed for freedom.

Bush has fought two wars so far in Afghanistan and Iraq. When the Afghan War was fought many of the Afghan people joined in and when victory was won there was rejoicing in the streets by the common people. Instead of less freedom both countries have more freedom. This is most conspicuous among the women who were suppressed, raped and often butchered. Now they are going to school and have jobs again. The situation is not perfect but much better than it would be if Bush were Hitler.

[9] Hitler ruled with such an iron hand that everyone within his sphere of influence who had any disagreement with him was afraid of him. And with good reason; those who disagreed were either imprisoned or killed.

On Feb 15, 2003 when millions marched against Bush his only comment was “I respectfully disagree.” No SS troops or brownshirts were dispatched to subdue the dissenting voice of the people.

Most dictators surround themselves with weak willed yes men. In this area Bush is also different. Instead of setting up an atmosphere of only getting the information he wants to hear he will encourage different points of view to be expressed at cabinet meetings. Even his choice of staff shows his lack of fear of talent and outspoken people. For instance, both Rumsfeld and Colin Powell were powerful intelligent personalities who often had conflicting points of view. Bush chose this contrast on purpose so he could have presented to him two sides of important issues by individuals who were not afraid to speak their mind. Bob Woodward who was partially responsible for bringing Nixon down in Watergate wanted to write a book about Bush. Instead of being afraid of being “discovered,” he invited Woodward to spend some time with him and see how he handles things. As a result Woodward gained a newfound respect for this Republican and his book was so favorable that his liberal friends accused him of selling out.

[9] Hitler was very serious in his demeanor, meetings were often full of tension and serious in tone.

Off camera Bush is often very lighthearted, cracking jokes, giving nicknames and, though serious topics are discussed, there is always room for lighthearted moments in his meetings.

[10] Hitler was a vegetarian and was always preaching about diet to his staff. Even so, his health was not that good and took many drugs, administered to him by his personal physician. He exercised very little.

Bush is a big believer in Texas beef, never preaches about diet, exercises daily. He is in great health and has a heartbeat of 35-45 beats a minute when resting.

He was quite confident of his physical condition during the 2000 campaign when he told Jay Leno that he would bet the entire presidency on a footrace with Al Gore.

[11] Hitler couldn’t hold down a stable relationship with the opposite sex and was single until the last day of his life.

Bush is happily married and even gave up drinking to insure the stability of his relationship.

[12] Hitler wanted to exterminate every Jew from the face of the earth Bush has shown no signs of having this type of animosity.

[13] Hitler was a big believer in relying on his own strength.

Since 911 when Bush arises, he reads from the scriptures and then gets on his knees and asks God for guidance in making the right decisions. One has to admit that based on his belief system, this is the highest he knows in a much different approach than Hitler.

[14] Hitler was recognized as a genius by friend and foe alike.

On the other hand, the enemies of Bush love to make fun of his intelligence and have even circulated lies about his IQ far and wide. Ironically, many of these same people claim he is a mastermind of a great conspiracy to control the world, even to the planning and execution of 911. To pull this off he would have to be a greater genus than Hitler. There was another President who had this same type of accusations, namely Abraham, Lincoln. The New York Times and other papers often ridiculed him for having low intelligence and even compared him to an ape. Then out of the other side of their mouths his enemies would accuse him of being a mastermind of a conspiracy to overthrow the Constitution. John Wilkes Booth bought into this. When he shot Lincoln he shouted to the crowd – “Death to Tyrants.”

A dumb ape of a tyrant? Lincoln’s generation did not know what to make of him. It took the next generation to see him correctly.

Even so, it may take a hundred years before the people of the world can step back, remove their bias and accurately judge George W. Bush.

To try to be better is to be better. Charlotte Cushman (1816 – 1876)

The Devouring Fire

Next we will more closely examine the following concerning the Two Witnesses:

“And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed. These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.” Rev 11:5-6

The initiate on the path of becoming like the Christ will speak eternal words, words that shall not pass away (the first witness) and perform works that will help humanity which will stand the test of time (the second witness).

Such words and works always draw forth enemies from the establishment who feel threatened and desire to maintain their base of power and authority. In fact, when you see a leader embraced by the world you can usually rest assured that the two witnesses are not present in his consciousness.

The world always resists change, especially change for the better and enemies come forth out of the woodwork to fight against such forward motion.

The scripture reads “And if any man hurt them…” How could the witnesses be hurt? The word “hurt” comes from the Greek ADIKEO and has a wider meaning than any single English word. When reading the scripture most people think this is referring to physical hurt, but ADIKEO comes from the root ADIKOS which gives it the core meaning of being “unjust” or wrong.

You can’t really physically hurt inspired words and works (even though the messengers can be physically hurt), but enemies of truth can unjustly attack them. How is this done? This is best understood by looking at the attacks on the words and works of the great lights in history. Their words have been distorted, twisted, changed and corrupted so when the public receives them through whatever media is used, they appear as evil as the devil himself. The same happens with their works. The initiate and his workers are compared to tyrants, to enemies of the state, status quo and the world. Just as the Jewish leaders accused Jesus of trying to destroy their law and system, the works of one on the path of Christ are seen as destructive to the establishment.

Therefore, they seek to destroy such works, not through reason and fair play, but by attack bringing distortion to the work and the intention behind the work. Again, they associate the workers and the work with evil. You will recall that they accused Jesus of working through the power of Beelzebub, the Jewish word for a  devilish character. (See Matt 12:24)

When the disciple on the path of Christ goes forward with his work, enemies indeed come forward and unjustly attack and corrupt his “words” and his “work” – the two witnesses.

What happens after the attack?

“…fire proceedeth out of their mouth…”

After enemies surface and attack and distort the words and works “fire” proceeds from the witnesses. The meaning here is significant and much different than taught by orthodoxy. Fire comes from the Greek PUR. The English “pure” and “purify” come from it. Light or lightening is also implied. What does this tell us? It reveals that when the initiate is attacked and his enemies make arguments against him through the use of lies and distortion that out of his mouth will come forth fiery truth and light that sets the record straight. Distortion cannot stand in the face of truth and when corruption is met with pure truth and reason, the truth will prevail in the end.

“…and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.”

The power of the words and works of the initiate are so powerful that they “devour” the attacks of the enemies.

Again, Jesus is the perfect example of this. After his enemies tried to attack him to prove he was evil, the Master returned fire with reason so powerful their argument was devoured. After one exchange it is written:

“And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.” Matt 22:46

It says that the attacker must “in this manner be killed.” The Greek word for “killed” implies more than physical destruction but can refer to any type of destruction. Jesus killed the argument of the Pharisees who attacked him and this is what happens to all false reasoning that comes against the witnesses that accompany the disciple on the path.

Before and during the Civil War many distorted the truth of what freedom is and maintained they must enslave the minority to maintain freedom for the majority. Fire proceeded out of the mouth of Lincoln with words such as:

“A nation cannot continue to exist half slave and half free… A house divided against itself cannot stand.”

These words of Lincoln have endured the test of time like an eternal fire that has destroyed every enemy which has come against them. In addition, his second witness, his work, preserving the union and the freeing of the slaves has also been a fire that has destroyed every argument to the contrary.

Verse 6 reads: “These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.”

First we must realize what is meant by “the days of their prophecy.” The word prophecy comes from the Greek PROPHETEIA which basically means “inspired speech.” The time period is three and a half cycles or seasons. During this time period the initiate gives forth inspired words that uplift the few who will listen and respond.

Let us look at Lincoln again. During his three and a half periods of his prophesy was heaven shut that it did not rain for his enemies?

Heaven symbolizes higher light and knowledge and rain corresponds to the receptivity of the people for greater light.

His enemies rejected granting freedom to the human spirit of an entire race of people and this rejection of this basic right caused “heaven,” or higher light and compassion, to be closed to them that no enlightenment came during this period.

The scripture continues: “…and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.”

Water is symbolic of emotion. The symbolism of blood depends on the context in which it is used. It stands for angry emotion, life or the sacrifice of life depending on the situation. In this case it means that the two witnesses accompanying the initiate stirs the emotions to such a degree that a conflict ensues that causes great anger that could lead to the sacrificing of life. This indeed happened during the Civil War as 600,000 Americans lost their lives. In addition, the whole land was smitten with all sorts of plagues, hunger, disease and death.

It is interesting that these same correspondences can be made to the work of Jesus, FDR and Churchill during World War II, the Founding Fathers and many other workers of light.

Next we read:

“And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.

“And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves. And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.

“And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven.” Rev 11:7-13

The Death of the Witnesses

Let us  examine these verses and discern the meaning.

“And when they shall have finished their testimony…”

“Finished” comes from the Greek TELEO which has the same root as TELEIOS, the Greek word for perfection. In other words, this scripture tells us of the time in which the Works and Words have been presented with as great of clarity as possible. All who have eyes to see and ears to hear cannot deny the witness. Those who continue to deny the value of the witnesses are hard-hearted and closed-minded and refuse to see and hear.

“…the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit…”

This is the first mention of “the beast” in Revelation. We shall give a full explanation when we get to chapter thirteen. Suffice it to say at present that the beast represents the authoritative rulers of the world who permeate all walks of life. Where does he come from?

The bottomless pit.

And what is that? As we explained in reviewing chapter nine this represents the seemingly unlimited number of emotionally polarized people on the earth. These are they who are reactionary and respond with predictable actions when stimulated. These people who yield thought and reason to knee jerk emotional reaction give power to antichrist authorities causing the beast to be able to ascend before the consciousness of humanity again and again.

“…shall make war against them…”

The two witnesses, the Words and Works of the disciple, have gone through three cycles and have caused a great stirring among the people and the authorities who lead them. Now against all odds they continue for a half a time, or seemingly forever, unless they are stopped. It now dawns on those in power that the witnesses must be neutralized by any means possible.

“…and shall overcome them, and kill them.”

The authorities of the earth now turn on the witnesses with all the power at their disposal. We are told these earthly powers shall “overcome” and “kill” them?

What does this mean? The interpretation would seem to imply the death of the initiate. Although this often happens, as with Lincoln and Jesus, it is not always the case. With Galileo, for instance he was placed in jail and forced to deny his Work and Words. They did not kill this initiate, but they did seem to kill his two witnesses that the earth was not the center of the universe.

The witnesses are killed or neutralized in a number of different ways:

[1] The literal killing of the initiate and his associates which seems to stop the Words and Works.

[2] The demonizing of the Words and Works giving the public impression that they are evil and need to be avoided.

[3] The corruption of the witnesses. When the Words and Works permeate society to the extent, they cannot be extinguished the authorities pretend to embrace them. After this they alter and corrupt them so society’s original errors and power are held intact.

“And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.”

Jesus was crucified in Jerusalem yet the scripture says the witnesses were killed in the same place – not physically but spiritually. This spiritual place, which corresponds to Jerusalem of old, is called “Sodom and Egypt.”

Why is it written that the two witnesses were killed in this place “where also our Lord was crucified?”

In Jesus’ day the attempt to kill his Words and Works, or the two witnesses, was through the crucifixion. This same principle applies in all other attempts to kill or corrupt the witnesses of other initiates. “Sodom and Egypt” gives us major clues as what conditions are needed to kill the witnesses.

Sodom was destroyed by fire because of wickedness in the days of Abraham and Lot. Two evils concerning it were mentioned in the Bible. First they were not accepting of strangers, such as Lot, and secondly they were willing to do whatever necessary, unto murder and rape, to fulfill their carnal desires.

The keynote of Egypt is slavery since this is where the Hebrews had to be delivered by Moses.

Thus we have three conditions needed to slay the witnesses:

[1] A refusal to accept or even tolerate the new and different.

[2] A willingness to do violence to fulfill desire and maintain the status quo.

[3] A state of mental enslavement where the people do not think and act without permission from authority.

We are told their dead bodies shall lie in the streets of this “spiritual” city. What are their dead bodies and what does this mean?

When the life that was in the Words and Works of the initiate seems to be suffocated what is left is the dead bodies. And what are these?

To understand let us draw a picture of the typical situation after the death of the two witnesses.

The people are in a state of mental slavery and only do what they are told to do. They fear to endorse or accept anything new and are encouraged to satisfy their every desire as long as it does not give life to the witnesses.

The bodies of the witnesses remain in the streets. The word “streets” tells us the people still have access to the witnesses but by their refusal to give them their eyes and ears they appear as dead. The body for their Words could be a book or a Bible. The body for the Works is a church, movement or organization.

The bodies remain, but are as dead because of the corruption of the people by the beast, which is the master of manipulating emotion.

What if nothing exists and we’re all in somebody’s dream? Or what’s worse, what if only that fat guy in the third row exists? Woody Allen (1935 – )

Vibrations

Question: I DON’T think Kim Michaels is being consciously deceptive, it looks to me like he is sincere in his belief that he is (being) overshadowed by “Jesus”. What do you think?

JJ: Yes, I think he is sincere in that he really believes he is channeling the masters. BUT to get to a point where one can be so deceived, he had to miss something along the way to where he is now. Somewhere along the path he had to yield to the false ego over the highest he knew. This is the reason that Shakespeare’s adage is so important: “To thine own self be true And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man” If he would reflect back on that which led him to this false contact he would discover a point where he was not completely true to himself. The trouble is that this is difficult to do; for when you claim contact and it seems true to yourself, there is little motive to backtrack and discover illusion.

A reader wants to know if there was anything detrimental lor damaging in Kim’s writings.

There is no such thing as a detrimental teaching for one who has soul contact. It matters not how outrageous the material which is presented – he who has the tool of verification through the soul cannot be deceived – as long as he remembers to use that tool. Sometimes one who is not totally committed to the soul can be so enticed with a teaching, usually an illusionary shortcut, that he will accept without verification. He makes the mistake of accepting verification of the lower self and conveniently ignores the higher.

If half the material is true then it can be positive stimulation for one with soul contact for it will give him food for thought. If the truth level is too low it will become a waste of time for him to read, but still will not harm him.

For one without sufficient soul contact, the danger of any teaching is that the teacher, or the manuscript itself, will replace the soul within and thus become his personal “beast” the locks the door to the soul. For such a person any error in the teaching puts additional seal on the lock and makes it more difficult to release the beast and again look in the direction of the soul.

Thus, will the true teacher teach his students how to avoid the beast and avoid making him into a beast and never discourage them from looking for truth in any corner desired.

As a spiritual teacher I cannot fear for your souls to the extent that I will think: “Wow, I am just a normal human. How can I complete with teachings that claim to come direct from the real Jesus? I must forbid the students from studying such teachings else they leave me.”

Every false teacher has this attitude to a degree, but as a teacher I encourage you to look everywhere and study all that comes before you as you are guided by your souls. If I lose your association for a time that is fine. You are off to learn some new lessons. On the other hand, neither do I ignore a teaching that comes before me, but encourage all to examine it in the light of day with the highest of reasoning and spiritual discernment of which he is capable. This is what we are now doing.

 Dan: 3) Also, I am curious as to your opinion of the source of my reaction to different parts of the site. I mentioned in my replies to Zofia & Ruth that I saw great differences in quality (vibration) in different areas of the site, sometimes even from one paragraph to the next. Was this simply my ego getting stroked when I read things that seemed to agree with things you have said (or I myself have thought) and getting “pricked” where things were contradictory and I simply interpreted this as a “difference in vibration/quality”? (go ahead let me have it, I can take it 🙂

Question: When I read his text I saw great differences in quality (vibration) in different areas of the site, sometimes even from one paragraph to the next. Why would this be?

JJ: I didn’t notice this, but I haven’t read the whole site as you may have. I have skimmed over a good portion of it and then stopped at parts that interested me.

If you could find a couple hundred words of one vibration and then a couple hundred of another and post them I would be happy to take a closer look.

I will say this. In the course of my teaching, I have received comments something like this a number of times:

“Wow, JJ, when you said such and such you must have really been in the zone. It was like a Master or Higher Power was speaking through you. BUT when you said XYZ I think you were in the lower personality. When you said this you were only an ordinary guy, or less.”

Now we know all my teachings are written by me. There are not a bunch of entities standing in line to express themselves through my computer, yet the vibration of one set of writings will seem to be of a different vibration than another.

This is due to two things:

(1) If you agree with the teaching you are more likely to see it as a higher vibration.

(2) Some teachings are truly of a higher order than others and more readily resonates with the soul.

I will pay a compliment to Kim’s writings. I think they are of a higher order, more interesting and more sincere in quality than his mentor Elizabeth Claire Prophet.

But the teachings run counter to the current plan of leading students away from the beast of authority. Almost all of them are presented by a voice of authority which, if true, would be almost sacrilegious to challenge.

The student must be free to question all things without fear of offending God, or Jesus.

Even when Christ comes again, he will not present himself as the infallible Christ so he will not create the beast of authority to those he teaches.

Reader: A lot of these new age channelers focus on leaving duality to a non-duality, but DK seems to place emphasis on synthesis. Would you comment on this?

JJ: Synthetic thinking would be different than dualistic thinking and has some reason behind it.

What is somewhat irritating are those who come to this group and flatly state that we need to escape duality to that eternal nothingness between the poles. To this I have responded about a thousand times that the immediate goal is not the elimination of duality for if there were no duality, or interplay of the two energies, there could be no creation and it would immediately be as if nothing had ever been.

I have not written much on duality as a teaching but have mostly just responded to illusionary proselytizing on the subject.

To teach mastery of balancing the dualities to and move away from a strong polarization to a synthetic thinking is indeed a positive thing. I wouldn’t call it escaping duality but a move toward synthesis.

You’ll note that in the writings of DK very little is mentioned about duality but much is written about synthesis.

In my mind it is much better to concentrate on moving toward something (synthesis – glass half full) rather than away from something (duality, fear, glass half empty).

Mr. Michaels & Jesus

A reader posted some excerpts from a site channeling Jesus and other masters from this link:

I decided to take a look at the site for myself. Consequently, I spent most of my free time today pouring over it.

The channeler is Kim Michaels who sees himself as channeling Jesus as well as the Buddha, El Morya, Archangel Michael, Mother Mary, Saint Germain, Kuan Yin, Zarathustra, Shiva and someone named Omega. He does say though that Jesus is his main master.

His philosophy springs from the I AM movement which morphed into Summit Lighthouse led by Elizabeth Claire Prophet who he proclaims as a true messenger of Christ.

Since he supports Ms. Prophet, he probably sees Alice A Bailey as in cahoots with the Dark Brothers as did Ms. Prophet. I would guess the reason Alice A. Bailey or Djwahl Khul is not mentioned on the website is he doesn’t want to alienate the many who see light in the teachings. His Jesus also condemns The Aquarian Gospel as darkness. He would have to for it teaches contrary things to Ms. Prophet.

Right or wrong he has some interesting answers to some provocative questions and one with soul contact can read them and sift through what does not register and consider that which does register within.

Just don’t make the mistake of accepting the words as infallible because he claims it came from Christ.

When a new or different teacher is discovered by a member of the group, it is often said that their teachings seem to be in harmony with my own, but then when I read them, I usually find that such is not the case – that there are major differences. Two different teachings may seem to be in agreement because all metaphysical teachers, true and false, will have some overlap in their teachings.

Just as there are certain basic doctrines that many differing Christian churches have in common, even so will all metaphysical teachers have overlap.

No matter what the claim is I will check out a new teacher with as open of a mind as possible. This I did with Kim Michaels.

As I looked through the writings I saw some of the basics that is taught by the many, some of which may be in harmony with my teachings, but I saw just as many things that were at odds with what I teach. One thing right off that caught my attention was the question about Glenda Green’s portrait of Jesus. He was asked if that was what he looked like?

The answer was extremely ambiguous. Jesus (through Kim) said that it was a “valid” image but other differing pictures could look like him too. It almost made it sound like Jesus morphed from one form to another while he was here. We know that didn’t happen during his mortality so the answer must be that he was avoiding the answer to the question by basically saying “I can take any shape I want so whatever is drawn of me is correct.”

The person wanted to know if the portrait looked like the Jesus who was in Jerusalem 2000 years ago and the guy avoided the answer. This wasn’t a good way to get me started on my truth detector.

Here is my opinion of Kim Michaels. I think he was a sincere follower of Elizabeth Claire Prophet and studied other materials as well. When Ms Prophet got too ill to continue her work, talk arouse of one to succeed her. As he reflected on the matter the thought kept crossing his mind that it could be him. His constant reflection on the Masters and apparent association with those he respected caused a thoughtform to be created in his aura. He fed this thoughtform over a period of time until it was given birth and became a living speaking representative of the masters. From this thoughtform, some interesting material filtered through his mind and astral body. Some of it is true, much of it isn’t.

Let us examine a few things in the light of day and ask ourselves if the real Jesus or the Christ is speaking to him.

It is true I could find a number of points of agreement, but this is not an indication the person is who he says he is because I have points of agreement with every person on earth as do you.

Here are some reasons to question that the real Christ is not speaking to him.

(1) I cannot find a new principle or new light given on an old one that is not already in print somewhere. There is a lot of unprovable data, however.

(2) Kim’s Jesus speaks frequently of the importance of free will yet his mentor Elizabeth Claire Prophet ruled with an iron hand and tightly controlled the lives of followers.

(3) Ms. Prophet obviously read the Bailey writings and took material from them and Kim seems to follow this same trend while rejecting Bailey’s Djwahl Khul as a messenger of light.

(4) Kim says that the Masters worked through Ms. Prophet yet she predicted an Armageddon in the early 90s and led the group to Montana where they heavily armed themselves and dug bomb shelters.

Nothing happened as the masters predicted through her.

If Jesus was behind this, why did I know more than he did? When I heard of this, I knew they were misled about the times and seasons.

(5) He presents himself as being different from Ramtha and other voice channels yet both he and Ms. Prophet channeled by direct voice – a thing that Djwahl Khul says the masters do not use, except on rare occasions where an important need may arise.

He believes that because he is channeling masters and not regular entities like Seth or Ramtha then he is doing something higher than astral channeling. He indicates he does not speak with a different voice or go so deep as to have no memory of what was said. Even so, he is doing basically the same thing as other channels for the supposed masters come into him as they did Ms. Prophet and speak through his vocal cords. This is still direct voice channeling. It just means that he only has to go into a light (verses heavy) trance to contact his thoughtform.

(6) He has his followers repeat simple but select phrases over and over, often 40 times in quick sequence. This produces a hypnotic effect and dims regular consciousness. By repetitively inducing the right phrases over a period of time a controlling thoughtform can be implanted in followers.

(7) He says you do not need to develop the mind to ascend or become like the masters. To eliminate thinking is a step in controlling thinking.

(8) It seems that a large number of very important and busy masters want to use his vocal cords. It is unrealistic to think that they are waiting in line.

He’s got quite a bit of material and it would take me a long time to comment much of it, but this should suffice for now. I do not discourage anyone from seeking truth anywhere. Running a lot of different subjects by your soul can be consciousness expanding, even if they did not come from a master. My advice though is never substitute the master within for a master without.

That which is striking and beautiful is not always good, but that which is good is always beautiful. Ninon De L’ englos

Discerning True Revelation

A reader asks if I would comment on what I see as the difficulty in the establishment of Zion?

For the creation of Zion, or a true spiritual community to materialize, a number of steps must take place.

(1) Appropriate teachings must be completed and presented to the world. I have written a lot of material, but there are still additional teachings that must be presented as far as my part of the work is concerned.

(2) The group and teachings must draw worldwide attention so the pure in heart can be exposed to the message and the gathering principle. This has not happened yet.

(3) Gathering seekers alone will not create Zion. After the first gathering takes place additional sifting and experimentation must take place before a harmonious group with soul contact will be permanently established.

(4) The creation of a true soul infused community will take a while and will not happen overnight.

I have said from the beginning that a strong foothold for the gathering of Lights is supposed to take place by 2030. The fact that we have not yet established a foothold is not surprising.

The foothold has not happened yet by a long shot, but could happen quite quickly when the time is right.

“He that believeth shall not make haste.” Isaiah 28:16

The problem in times past is that seekers wanted immediate results and hastily built structures that did not work fell apart.

We must lay the correct foundation this time and take whatever time is necessary to accomplish it. The feeling of urgency with most seekers usually comes from within their own thought processes and not from the Spiritual Hierarchy.

Question: Why hasn’t the molecular relationship you have written about manifested yet?

JJ (Note from 2022: At that time I expressed the opinion that it  cannot be created on the internet, but with current technologies   such as Zoom it may now be possible) We need to see 24 people who can work together in harmony with soul contact who are gathered together before attempting the work. We have a way to go yet. In addition, many who think they are ready for oneness will not be able to see eye to eye through the soul with their brethren.

Question: How did you come up with the concept of the Molecular Relationship?

JJ The Molecular Relationship was downloaded into my mind in an instant. One moment I knew nothing about it. The next I saw the whole thing and knew everything necessary to create it.

That’s all I will say at the moment.

The most important thing we can all do to prepare for the Molecular Relationship is to establish soul contact to the degree that the Oneness Principle is seen. Two must acquire the ability to look beyond personality disagreements to the soul and see through the language of principles. When two see the same principle, they will see as one.

 Ruth quotes me from the archives:

“He must learn to differentiate between a channeled spirit that is under control of the Soul and one that is influenced by the lower self. Finally, he must learn the difference between the vibration of his individual Soul and a message or endowment of energy from a Master or a Spiritual Guide who works though the Soul.

“The voice of God speaking through the Soul is the ultimate authority for the disciple.

“Nevertheless, we should never give any man, woman, disembodied entity or even Master the same authority as our Souls, for we should always do our best to check the truth of all teachings with the Spirit of God which dwells in us.”

I must say that every time I re-read something you have taught, there is always something there I missed before 😉

“A channeled spirit that is under control of the Soul”……..I had no idea that a channeled spirit (from the Astral realm?) could be under the control of the Soul. In fact, why would the Soul need to work through a channeled spirit at all? Could you please explain this to me?

Question: Would you clarify the  difference between those who channel though soul  contact and those who do not?

JJ Every spirit is not focused in the astral zone. All of us are nonphysical after death and go to one of the higher planes.

Mid astral spirits usually do the direct voice channeling by the use of personality energy. Then there are higher spirits that work through higher methods of channeling and may send impressions to the living through the Oneness principle and soul contact.

Why do I attempt to speak through the voice of the soul when I teach? Because it is much more effective than not using the soul.

The soul does not teach, but it verifies true principles. Someone must do the speaking, writing and teaching the principles verified through the soul, be it a master, an angel or a regular human.

One must pay attention to the different vibrations of the different contacts. Every entity in the universe has a different “signature” from anyone else.

To learn to differentiate one must pay attention to inner contacts over a period of time. It is also the key to overcoming deception.

True spiritual teachers work through the same soul energy just as you and I are using the same internet.

Question: Do Masters have separate souls to us?

JJ They are separate and distinct entities just as you and I are, but the higher part of ourselves shares a oneness.

Question: If the Spirit of God that is within us is also a part of the Spirit of God within the Masters, then why don’t we give the Masters the same authority as the Spirit of God within us, if we are all One?

JJ Because you could be deceived and be communicating with an astral entity who you think is a master, or you could misunderstand even a Master. Once you learn to consistently recognize your own soul you will not be deceived.

You have a solar angel assisting you which is a distinct entity, or a part of the whole,  on its own plane and uses soul energy to reach you.

The soul, which is one, is the interplay of spirit and matter. This is soul energy and is the same everywhere, but it is not you. You merely use it.

Question: How do we have individual souls then, if the Soul is One?

JJ An individual solar angel assists you and uses the one soul energy which is everywhere there is spirit and matter meeting.

There are seemingly separate solar angels, which are parts of the whole which assist us. These are advanced beings that were once on an earth in a physical body like you are.

Look at the night sky. There is one space and within that space are many stars, planets and beings. Space and soul are not separate, but those parts within soul energy and space are individual distinct entities or parts.

Another reader asks for me to clarify the teaching on Jesus and the Christ.

It was difficult for me to at first accept that Jesus and the Christ are two separate entities, that there were two entities in the body of Jesus who was in Jerusalem. Then when I turned to the scriptures, I found that they actually verified this teaching.

The teachings in the archives give quite a bit of detail and clarity.

For those who wish to read more I would suggest you check out the archives. (Note: Go to this link:

Three and a Half Cycles

Reader Question: Why did the Christ say He would return in about 2000-2500 years, if it takes about 3500 years or 3 and a half times longer as the principle?

JJ The three and a half does not refer to a thousand years any more than it would refer to three and a half times 100 or 50. Instead it refers to natural cycles. Specific natural cycles mentioned in the scriptures where this figure applies are days, years and months.

Other natural cycles are generations, seasons, hours, periods of work, repeating cycles, etc. It could refer to 1000 only if an identified period of a cycle covering that time period is mentioned.

I do not see the three and a half used in reference to the absence of Christ, but it is used in reference to the church of Christ being hidden from the earth, which we shall cover in the next chapter.

The three and a half periods generally apply to a period of work or tribulation that ends with a step of progress if the labor is not terminated.

The cycles could be divided like this.

First Period. This is the period which lies within the expected time that the work is thought to be successfully completed.

Second Period. This is the period that goes beyond that which was expected. Now it is apparent to all that the labor is much more difficult than expected. If the initiator perseveres some complaints will surface, but it appears he still has the support to continue to victory.

Third Period. The initiator has persevered with bullheadedness, in the eyes of many, and it seems the work is doomed to failure and any more effort is a waste of time. Even many friends and supporters turn on the initiate and attempt to make him alter his path.

The Half a Time, or Period. Only the committed initiate on the path of the Christ has the will to continue until this final time of enduring to the end is reached. Perhaps the best example of this was the work of Lincoln, a high initiate, during the Civil War. After over 500,000 deaths of his own brethren, he continued to the half a time with a determination seen by few people in history. Now, on hindsight, we see that this half a time of perseverance was extremely important to the history of the world.

Even so it is with any disciple who follows the path of Christ. He will see a vision of his work and within himself form an estimate of how long it will take to achieve success.

This is the first period and after it passes it will seem he is farther from success than when he started. Then twice that time passes and still the goal is far away and initial supporters are starting to grumble and fall away.

Two times or cycles have passed and now he enters the “time,” or the third cycle. Not only do supporters turn on him and wonder if he was ever right or inspired to begin with but he doubts himself. Only by going back in his mind to the initial revelation of the work and reminding himself of its reality can he manage the power to continue.

The disciple who does not do this only cries out “My God, why have you forsaken me!” and quits.

The disciple who does correctly reflect may still make this cry but he continues for the half a time despite the appearances and circumstances.

As he endures to the end through the final maze and fog the inner sun arises and its blazing flames dispel the mist and all doubts evaporate. After the half a time the disciple wonders why he ever doubted, for he is glad beyond measure that he did not give up.

Those who fell away from the cause return as if they were supporters all the time.

Those who betrayed him retreat into silence and dare not speak as they did before, else they appear as fools.

Those who stayed with the initiate are seen as true friends to himself and to each other and have joy and knowledge of real brotherhood – a brotherhood known to a sacred few.

Three and one half is half of seven, the number of days in a week and the number of cycles of creation.

After three a half days of creation God was in the middle of making the great lights in the heavens, darkness was no more.

After the three and a half cycles are passed the work is not done but the second half of the work begins. This is the work where the laborers proceed in the light rather than in the dark. It is now seen the labor is beneficial and desirable and many come to the aid of the initiator (who is often dead or gone) and finish the work.

For instance, after the civil war, even though Lincoln was dead, the people now saw the value of the labor and sought to finish his work and reconstruct the country. Indeed, there were many problems but overall the labor benefited many generations to come.

Remember that after God completed the seven days of labor his greatest creation (Adam) fell and still more labor was required to salvage him.

The earth itself was beautiful, but was far from perfect. Even so, no work started by an initiate is perfect and beyond criticism, but it will be a thing of beauty and will be a vehicle to assist humankind to go where they have not gone before.

 Next we will more closes examine the following concerning the Two Witnesses: Rev 11:5 And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed. Rev 11:6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.

(1) Who are their enemies? (2) What is the fire coming out of their mouths? (3) What will happen when heaven is shut? (4) What does it mean that they will have power over the waters? (5) What is the symbolism of turning the water to blood and smiting the earth with plagues?

A reader asks: Does your comment mean that because some may not support or agree with the disciple they are no longer his friends even though they bear him no harm.

JJ I don’t know where you get this idea, certainly not from anything I have said. What happens is usually the other way around. As the initiate proceeds with his work many of his friends and fellow workers give up on him as well as the project. These often view the initiate as insane or mislead and will often withdraw their friendship.

One who is fairly progressed along the path will attempt to be friendly and a friend to all though he may be limited in establishing numerous personal friendships because of time.

Reader Comment: They may support him in general, or in some things, but that doesn’t mean in everything. That would prove them fools, indeed!

JJ An initiate does not expect perfect agreement in all details but it is important that all workers see the same big picture or else little will get accomplished.

If a true disciple is laboring to complete a certain job, he certainly would not expect someone who does not like the labor or the project to work against his will.

Reader Comment:  There are many teachers, disciples, and initiates working in the world today in common purpose and I’m familiar with the work of a number of them. I don t personally see any one of them as superior to the other, or another. Each is very well suited to their particular calling and missions and most will go on against all odds, but this is the only time I have ever heard it implied by anyone, that those that didn’t see and recognize the superiority of an alleged initiate would eventually come crawling back hiding the fact that they were fools like nothing had ever happened. Only time will tell who the real fools were, if any. It may not be a matter of fools, but those that were fooled.

JJ I don’t know where you see this aura of superiority that you are talking about here.

Let us again use the example of Abraham Lincoln who DK acknowledged was a “racial avatar.”

He felt within himself that it was of extreme importance in the scheme of things to preserve the union and to free the slaves in the process if at all possible.

When the war started many thought it would be short and Lincoln had reasonable support. But as things progressed and it looked as if the it would never end many who previously supported him turned against him, There were conspiracies in both the North and the South, in Canada in France and England to kill him.

Then after the war ended, he was martyred and his work began to be seen as one of extreme significance for humanity. Many of those who opposed him acted as if they were supporters all along. Many who were not friends claimed to be his friend. Those who openly spoke against him during the work became silent and did not speak else they appear a fool, especially in the North.

Now did Abraham Lincoln project a smugness and air of superiority? Not really. Even his enemies did not accuse him of such.

Did he have a work to do that he internally knew was right and good to accomplish?

Yes, he did or he could have never persevered the way he did.

Was Lincoln unfriendly to those who had different view than himself?

No.

If someone was an open and hostile enemy how was he handled?

In a number of different ways. If possible, Lincoln ignored him but if his hand was forced, he dealt with them as an enemy.

Did Lincoln think that his work was superior to all others?

There is no evidence that he thought this way, even though his work was indeed important. It only appears that he thought he had a job to do and went ahead and did it.

Did Lincoln depend on others who saw eye to eye with him to get the job done?

Yes. Lincoln did depend on many others who agreed with him in the general principles of the work. Those who wanted a nation divided were not much assistance to him.

Reader:  “.”I am certain that the path and direction we have taken is the Will of Almighty God. Adolph Hitler

JJ Are you implying that if a person believes himself to be in harmony with the will of God that he is insane?

While it is true that the bad guys and the disillusioned often think they are following the will of God but so do many of the good guys.

Lincoln thought it was within the will of God that slaves should be freed. Was that a bad thing?

Notice that the two disciples who fought Hitler were also confident they were following his will.

“We are not content to stand still. As Americans, we go forward, in the service of our country, by the will of God.” FDR Inaugural Address 1941

“Arm yourselves, and be ye men of valour, and be in readiness for the conflict; for it is better for us to perish in battle than to look upon the outrage of our nation and our altar. As the Will of God is in Heaven, even so let it be.” Winston Churchill Radio Broadcast May 19, 1940

“Such inspired leadership is now being given to humanity by Winston Churchill and Franklin D. Roosevelt, in contradistinction to the focused leadership of the forces of materialism through Hitler and another man in his group. …These Avatars express the Will of God, the energy of Shamballa…” From Externalization of the Hierarchy Page 301

Hitler ate carrots too but that doesn’t mean I can’t eat them. He initiated the Volkswagen, but it doesn’t mean it was an evil car.

No matter what work is put forth we have to examine it in the light of the soul and then go by the highest we see to be correct.

In closing I think it is important that readers understand as we examine this part of Revelation that we are talking about the work that is seen and attempted by a high initiate following the path of Christ. Generally, a work chosen by a high initiate will be a beneficial one for humanity if accomplished.

Compare it to building a house. If a builder works on creating a house, which is very usable and a positive creation, then this is not to say that others cannot also work on homes of their own design which are also good.

On the other hand, neither does it mean that every house built is good. Some have poor foundations and are built cheaply and fall apart.

If the builder decides to go ahead, he does not find those who overly criticize to be of much use. He needs those who are willing to work on the building according to the blueprint. With no blueprint the house will be a dismal failure.

The logic here is pretty basic.

To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person. Bruce Lee (1940 – 1973), Tao of Jeet Kune Do

The Two Witnesses

Continuing with Revelation:

“And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.” Rev 11:3-4

Before we give the inner interpretation let us briefly relate the orthodox one. Standard Christians see the two witnesses as two physical prophets who shall appear in the last days. Some believe they will be Moses (or possibly Enoch) and Elijah come again, not reincarnated, but making a supernatural appearance. They see these two as appearing in Jerusalem and causing all kinds of grief to unbelievers.

On the fringe side of things there are hundreds out there with large egos claiming to be one of the two witnesses. Because of this claim we are supposed to drop everything and follow them

Then there are others who teach that the two witnesses are groups, movements or even historical figures.

While it may be true that certain physical correspondences may appear from time to time that could be interpreted as the two witnesses (and I have written of this myself) I think the reader will find that the inner interpretation will strike a chord within. Whereas the outer interpretation occurs within a very limited time; the inner applies from the time of John until today and henceforth.

So, who or what are the two witnesses and what is it they are witnessing to or for the disciple seeking to unfold the Christ within?

To answer this question, we must recap the meaning of the recent verses.

The disciple has eaten the little book or obtained a revelation of his place in the scheme of things, his mission and the work to be done. After this, he sees he must look into the hearts of men and discern the true seekers after the light within from those who are governed by the light without.

What is it that must now be witnessed or verified?

To answer this, we must reflect back on the book (mission) he swallows. We are told “it shall make thy belly bitter, but it shall be in thy mouth sweet as honey.”

The mission and labor is sweet to dream and talk about, but the actual work and application can be very bitter because of the resistance the one following the path of Christ encounters. Remember that Jesus had to suffer the bitter pill of suffering in the garden and being crucified.

Others seeking to follow the path of Christ may not be crucified but they must be willing to give even their lives if necessary and will also reach that point where they will ask “if it be possible, remove this cup.”

The only way the disciple can make his way through this valley of the shadow of death is to be absolutely sure his direction is correct. Otherwise, he will stumble, fall and not recover to obtain the victory.

The only way for him to obtain this surety is to obtain the two witnesses.

“And I will give power unto my two witnesses…”

Note that the two witnesses are given power from God. What is the purpose of such power? The purpose is to verify with a positiveness that transcends physical reality so the witness is sure.

So who or what are the two witnesses?

“These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.” Verse 4

What does this tell us?

A clue is given in the Book of Zechariah

“Here is a lamp-stand meets my eyes, all of gold. A bowl this lamp-stand has at the top of it, and from the bowl run seven pipes, to feed the seven lamps that crown it. And there are two olive trees hanging over it, one to the right and one to the left of the bowl . . .” Zech 4:1-4

“Then I asked him about the two olive trees, to right and left of the lamp-stand; and there was more I would know. What are the two olive-shoots, close beside the two golden taps that feed yonder pipes of gold? What said he, canst thou not tell? Not I, my Lord, I answered. What should these be he said, but the two newly anointed ones that stand in his presence, who is Master of the whole earth?” Zech 4:11-14 Knox Version

Notice that we have the symbolism of the two most important numbers when dealing with the Creator which is the seven and the three. We have the seven pipes and lamps symbolizing the “seven spirits before the throne.” Then we have the “Master of the whole earth” and the two anointed ones who feed the seven. These two plus the one equal the three of the Trinity.

After there disciple meets the powerful angel and eats the little book he feels he has a witness from on high (the powerful angel), but this is still not enough to sustain him. Remember that as Jesus faltered in the garden that “there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him.” Even for the Master, knowledge of his mission from his father was not enough. He needed additional assistance from another witness.

Next, as Jesus faced his accusers Peter cut the ear off of one of the soldiers. After this Jesus healed the ear in the eyes of all. This was a final witness to himself as well as his accusers that his mission was indeed in harmony with the higher will.

The purpose of the two witnesses is first to strengthen the disciple and, secondly, to verify his works.

The witnesses fulfill two purposes. First to strengthen and verify to the disciple and secondly to witness to the people who listen.

The first witness increases the inward spiritual power that is sent forth from the disciple to the people. The people receiving his words thus feel an inner strength being projected. Then the second witness verifies his works to the people.

In other words, the verification of his works and words are the two witnesses from the disciple to the people as well as to himself.

“…they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.”

Sackcloth in Bible days was made of a coarse, black goat’s hair. The material was used to make sacks, but also garments used to signify a period of mourning over calamities or death.

And what is the period of time involved?

“…a thousand two hundred and threescore days (1260)…”

This is the second time period mentioned in this chapter. The first reads:

“…the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.” Verse 2

A prophetic month in scripture was considered to be a flat 30 days. Thus 42 months equals exactly 1260. The symbolism of this figure is repeated numerous times in the Apocalypse. Later there is a period of “times, a time and a half a time.” Times equal one season, period or year, time equals one and finally a half a time. Add these together and we get three and a half periods. If we apply this to scriptural years of 360 days each we again arrive at 1260 days. Then later in this verse we see the witnesses were dead for three and a half days.

We thus see that the three and a half periods were repeated four times in the book, but written four different ways.

What is the reasoning for this?

This is to emphasize that the three and a half represents a principle rather than a black and white time period. The thing which is consistent with all these four time periods is also significant. All four represent periods of loss, tribulation or mourning before victory is achieved.

[1] The holy city is “tread under foot forty and two months.”

[2] The two witnesses prophesy during 1260 days of difficulty and resistance from enemies.

[3] The two witnesses are dead for three and a half days.

[4] The church flees to the wilderness for times, a time and a half a time (three and a half times).

“What then is the true meaning of the three and a half periods?

The answer is much different than you have read in the various Bible commentaries.

Humanity has a certain affiliation with the number three, as far as time or work goes. This is illustrated in the truism “Three is charm.” It seems to us that after three attempts or periods that success is to be achieved. Evidence of this is even seen in the resurrection of Christ for it is thought he was in the tomb for three days. Maybe this is incorrect. Maybe it was really three and a half days.

The reason that the great miracle of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead was so impressive was that he was in the tomb for over three days. It was a belief among the Jews that it was impossible to bring a man back to life who had been dead for more than three days.

When Jesus was told of the death of his friend, he purposefully delayed going to Lazarus so he would be dead for over three days. This was very upsetting to those close to him for they also thought that even Jesus could not bring him back after three days. Both Mary and Martha expressed regret that he did not arrive earlier.

We are told that this attitude made him groan ‘in the spirit, and was troubled.” John 11:33

Why was he so troubled? Because of this built-in mechanism that normal humanity has within themselves to just give up after the three periods.

This is why Jesus taught us that he who endures to the end shall be delivered. Matt 10:22 The end is always at least a half of a time period beyond that which the seeker expects.

The key to success is to not endure just one round of troubles, or even two or three, but always expect an extra half more than you think will be the maximum. In truth it may be more than the half, but at least a half.

The bottom line is that success will take as long as it takes but the promise is that if we endure to the end, we will achieve success. The problem is the end is always further away than one tends to expect. That last period that extends beyond the three rounds is the one crucial to success.

Two good examples of this are the two greatest conflicts experienced in the United States – the Civil War and World War II.

Time and time again great pressure was placed upon Lincoln to end the war, especially after three years had passed. It is only due to the iron will and inspired determination of this man that the war was successfully consummated after three and a half years had passed.

The same thing happened with World War II. No one was sure who would win after three years of U.S. involvement, but after we endured three and a half years it seemed pretty sure we would win, and of course we did.

A similar time period was at play in World War I which lasted just over three and a half years in Europe.

The principle taught is this. If we want to achieve victory on any level, we must be willing to endure for longer than the expected three periods. Sometimes it will require three and a half periods, sometimes more. When there is a major struggle or work to be accomplished it will always take longer than expected. If we have a timetable and say I will struggle for X amount of time, and that will be it, then failure is inevitable. Only the disciple who endures as long as it takes will triumph in the end.

No good deed goes unpunished. Clare Booth Luce (1903 – 1987)

The Difficult Path

Continuing with Revelation we read: “And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven, Rev 10:6 And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer:” Rev 10-5-6

Spirit and matter, heaven and earth have joined in the disciple and as a being one with the soul lifts his hand as a symbol of commitment to the direction of Spirit as he sees it.

He commits himself to the idea “that there should be time no longer.” This sounds strange until we realize it is a mistranslation. It should read that he makes a commitment that “time should no longer be delayed.” Instead of stating that there will be no more time it is merely saying that the disciple is resolved to have no more delay.

No more delay about what? Next we read:

“But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.” Verse 7

The seventh seal (chakra) is opened but now the disciple is having an awakening to the power and revelation from that center revealing the will of God. The disciple commits to following that will without delay and this will finish his quest for the mystery of God. He is now on the path toward oneness with God and such oneness is the greatest mystery declared by the prophets.

 Next we read: “And the voice which I heard from heaven spake unto me again, and said, Go and take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel which standeth upon the sea and upon the earth. And I went unto the angel, and said unto him, Give me the little book. And he said unto me, Take it, and eat it up; and it shall make thy belly bitter, but it shall be in thy mouth sweet as honey. And I took the little book out of the angel’s hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was bitter.” Rev 10:8-10

In a state of oneness with God and Spirit the inner voice speaks to him and tells him to take the book. In other words, he is to accept the revelation of oneness to which he is awakened and accept the mission that he has with the sons and daughters of men. Without the usual delay he now accepts the voice immediately. The revelation and mission is sweet “in his mouth.”

He finds it sweet to teach and talk about his revelations and plans but in his “belly” it was bitter.

When the disciple fully digests all that he must endure to accomplish the portion of the will of God he sees he discovers he must go through many trials, tribulations and endurance. He finds that shall not be so sweet as talking about lofty philosophy but will be a bitter pill to swallow, as was the crucifixion with Jesus.

At the beginning the disciple cheerfully says “here I am Lord,” and at the consummation he is likely to say, “If it be possible remove this cup.”

After the realization of the bitter pill to be endured he is told:

“Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.” Verse 11

The disciple learns that not only will the bitter cup not be removed, but his work and trials are far from over. This mission he perceives is just the beginning of his work on a higher level than before. He will yet teach “many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.” The bitter pill is a reminder that none of his future labors will be easy. His mission is the beginning of a struggle toward success that would frighten most seekers, but he must take courage, take the book out of the angel’s hand and move onward. In the end the reward and the joy will far outweigh any distress he endures. He senses this and moves onward no matter how great the risk.

Next we read: “And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein. But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.” Rev 11:1-2

John was given a reed like a rod for measuring. This reed was probably like a stalk of grass that grew in the area something like a piece of bamboo. The rod was probably about six cubits or nine feet in length.

Next he was told to “rise.” This word comes from the Greek EGEIRO which is often translated as “arise” but can also mean to “awaken.”

John had just taken the book out of the angel’s hand so he had already arisen. There is no indication that he was reclined in any way. This tells us that the alternative meaning of awakening must apply here and would read:

“Awaken, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.”

We can visualize someone measuring a building such as a temple and an altar, but he is also told to measure people.” How do you measure people with a rod? You could measure the height of one person, but how do you measure hundreds, thousands or perhaps millions of them?

Again, this tells us that the word “measure” may imply something other than the obvious. This word comes from the Greek METREO, which can mean “measure” in the normal sense but can also imply a judgement or to estimate a thing or matter.

A hint is given in its use in the following scripture:

“Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete (METREO), it shall be measured to you again.” Matt 7:1-2.

Notice that saying “with what measure ye mete (METREO), it shall be measured to you again,” is merely presented as another way of saying “with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged.”

What is the disciple to judge? Three things: (1) The temple of God, (2) the altar and (3) those who worship therein.

But there is something he is not to judge. The next verse reads: “But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.” Verse 2

 What does this all mean?

The disciple has just taken the little book and has finally comprehended his mission to be of service to mankind. Where shall he put his attention? He is to put his attention on, and understand in a way that gives him power to judge, the appropriate action to take in relation to the “temple of God.”

The temple of God is where God resides. And where is that?

Within ourselves. Those who seek God are temples of God and collectively form a great edifice.

Secondly, he is to judge the altar. And what is that? The altar is where the seekers go to communicate with God.

The true altar is the human heart. The disciple on the path of Christ is this to judge or assess the hearts of those he is to teach and to assist.

Thirdly he is to judge those “who worship therein,” or those who seek with pure hearts and good intentions to find the true spiritual path.

It is then interesting that there is another group he is not supposed to judge. These are the “gentiles” in the court outside the temple. These are they who do not seek God within, but seek a god without to rule over them. They are the masses who have not found the altar of the human heart as the only authority they need to find God.

He is told to not concern himself with them. They are not ready to find God where he truly is. He is supposed to put attention on those who are willing and able to sense the spirit of God within themselves. It is with these that he applies the principle behind the name of Jesus Christ, which means “anointed to deliver.” He thus seeks to teach and assist to deliver the pure in heart from the false Gods in the outer court.

The last part of verse two reads: “and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.”

Those who worship a God without will tread underfoot the holy city. What is that? The holy city is the gathering of lights or of those who find God within. Those who see a prophet, priest, king or book as the mouthpiece of god without will seek to destroy and disperse any gathering of those who find God within. They will seek to discourage them from finding God within and attempt to persuade them to worship god without. This power they have to diffuse the power of the lights will not last forever, but for “forty and two months.” This time period appears repeatedly and we shall examine it shortly.

An expert is a person who avoids small error as he sweeps on to the grand fallacy. Benjamin Stolberg

Party Domination

After posting several chapters from my book, Fixing America it appears that it would be helpful to add some esoteric clarification of the two sides, the left and the right or the Democrats and Republicans.

To understand about the qualities of each party must realize that the Republicans are polarized in the male energy or along the line of Rays 1, 3 & 5. The Democrats are in the female energy or along the lines of rays 2, 4 and 6. Both use Ray Seven almost equally.

The Republicans will excel in their lines of influence and the Democrats in theirs. Let us take a look.

Ray One governs politics. Because the Republicans are polarized along the line of this ray, they see with greater clarity what is practical in the application of political thought. A book could be written on why this is true, but all I will do at present is make this statement.

It is certainly true that Democrats are no sleeping violets in the political world and this is because they dominate the sixth Ray which governs emotion and strong authority. They use these two ingredients of this ray to gain political power beyond the political process itself.

The Democrats dominate Ray Two of love wisdom. This has a powerful teaching quality. This is why most teachers are Democrats. They have a natural affinity for teaching and their emotional energy helps them to convey their message with conviction.

The Republicans dominate Ray Three of active intelligence and gives them more power to reason and discriminate between what will work and what does not work. This is why they dominate in business. A business cannot succeed on good intentions and good feelings but can only succeed if it has a workable marketing plan that is executed. This also causes them to excel in talk radio where the issues are analyzed.

The Democrats really dominate Ray Four, which is harmony through conflict and governs creative energies. They thus excel in creative writing, movies, broadcasting and most of the media. This gives them tremendous power to present their dreams and visions to the public.

Ray Five is the Ray of and Concrete Knowledge and is dominated by Republicans. This makes them better at analyzing data and coming up with true applications and workable facts. Science is mostly governed by this ray, but is influenced strongly by rays 2, 4 and 6 making the use of science a battleground between the parties.

Ray 6 is dominated by Democrats, as mentioned earlier. This gives then much greater power to convey their ideas with emotional appeal and greater authority. Even when they have a bad idea, they can convince the masses that it is a good idea because of this power.

Ray Seven is the ray of ceremonial magic and governs organization. Because it is a synthetic ray neither party dominates for long in the use of its power. They both use this ray to organize and get the most out of their rituals and traditions.

You’ll note that both Bush and Kerry were members and brothers in the Skull and Bones Society, which is governed by this ray. The Ray Seven influence appealed to them both.
