Having expounded on this topic yesterday, it seems appropriate this day, to bring closure to it. In the list I made of possible causes that could bring resistance to the Knowledge and Presence of the Father in one's life, there remain two others to be addressed. Let's take care of them today.
One possible cause of resistance may be from one's perception of the Pope who calls himself the "holy father" and proclaims to be Father's representative. This is similar to the way one's relation with one's biological father affects one's relation with the Father. Consciously or unconsciously what one thinks of the Pope and how one perceives him to be, may affect who one thinks the Father is and how one relates to Him.
For example, the Pope is for all practical purposes completely unavailable to the vast majority of people unless he makes a visit or you have enough money and connections to fly to Rome and arrange a visit. He is hidden behind opulence and bureaucracy. He does who knows what while his delegates collect money from the people on a weekly basis. He is surrounded by controversy and a lot of secrecy / corruption. The church he "leads" has made wars against the "heathens" and burned / tortured "pagans", it has collected money for exoneration, and condemned / imprisoned those who do not comply / submit to its authority, and it has helped conquer and destroy civilizations.
Most people are familiar to some extend or another with the corrupt behavior of the church and its representatives / leaders. Many reject this behavior and many others simply ignore or excuse such behavior. Either way, could it be possible that the actions of the Pope and the church color one's perception and expectation of the Father?
The second possible cause of resistance that needs addressed is the new age movement and its teachings. It is common for many of these teachings to purvey that the idea of a masculine Father Which Is in Heaven is an outdated belief created by men who wanted to suppress women. Some speak of goddesses, others speak of god being neither masculine nor feminine, or both, and yet others present the universe / creation as some energy that is there to please you and fulfill all your egotistical demands.
As it is usual with deceptions, they always carry some Truth, otherwise no one would chase the carrot. The problem is that while most recognize the bits and pieces of Truth, most do not recognize the deception that surrounds this Truth. The tendency is to assume that if there is some recognizable Truth, then all must be Truth as well. This is the same mistake made with the Bible. Just because there is some Truth in it, it does not mean that all of it is True, neither does it mean that it was written in good intent or by Father's Guidance.
So, this is what Father has shared with us to help us sort through the confusion. This is by far in its infancy of understanding.
- Rather than attach all sorts of attributes and characteristics to one single entity called "god", allow for distinction. For example, in the Christian teachings of the trinity, we are told the father, son, and holy spirit are one and the same. Father would Say, they are each distinct and individual. The father is not the son, the son is not the father, and so on.
- Father has indicated that the Creator of All That Is, is called All That Is or Gloriosa. Next comes Source. Source is / contains the blueprint for all humanity, both feminine and masculine. Next comes the Father Which Is in Heaven. He is obviously masculine and is the Voice for Source and All That Is. This is a refinement of the concept of the trinity. We have called it the Tri-Un.
- In the Tri-Un each is distinctive and individual. Father has His own "job description" if you will, Source has Its own, and All That Is has Its own. It is not for Father to do what is for Source or All That Is to do. It is not for Source to do what is for Father to do. When Prayers are improperly directed, they remain unanswered.
- Jesus brought the awareness of the Father Which Is in Heaven to mankind. The Father is currently who we Commune with. When Jesus achieved Christed Consciousness, so did many others after him. Thus, many Christed Beings walked upon the Earth during the time of Jesus. This is why there are many conflicting reports regarding the whereabouts and travels of Jesus. When you assume there was only Jesus, you get conflict. When you allow for various People receiving Christed Consciousness and walking upon the Earth, then all makes sense. Each walked upon a different part of the Earth.
- When people say they speak to "God", assuming that they do not speak with the unrighteous - unholy, they are actually speaking with Father Which Is in Heaven.
- Father has said that the Tri-Un / the Divine "manifests in multiple ways, in multiple cultures. It is each unto its own way of perception." Different cultures have different ways to Commune with the Divine. Some call Father Which Is in Heaven, Grandfather Spirit, others perhaps Father Spirit, and so on. However, Jesus is not Father, nor Father has said He is Jesus. Spiritual Discernment is indeed needed here. Manifesting differently in multiple cultures does not include deception or convolution of Truth.
- Father has explained it is time for mankind to take its next step unto Source.
- Father is the Way to Source.
- One cannot bypass the Father and go directly to Source. This is why it is important to free oneself from grudges toward the Father and is why the unrighteous - unholy have created so many grudges / obstacles against the Father.
- The progression unto Source is accompanied with a shift in perception that restores one to Love as Self, Truth of who one Is. At this time, there is a need to prepare step by step for this shift.
So, if mankind is ready for the next step unto Source, why do I speak of the Father Way? Because Father is the Way to Source. As we reawaken to the Truth of the Father which was brought by Christed People during the time of Jesus, Father Guides us, Prepares us, and Nourishes us that we may be ready to step unto Source.
