The Beginning - Part Six

Who were the Lords of the World? Because their arrival predated recorded history by eons, we cannot cite any hard evidence. But we have a body of circumstantial evidence as to their character and nature: they had to be exceptionally spiritual folk. This the Bible tells us in Revelation [21:8]; "But the fearful, and ubelieving,and the abominal, and muderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolators, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake of fire and brimstone, which is the second death." Sure looks like these people aren't going to be welcome in the City of Heaven. Small wonder, as such as these would be disrupters, and on a journey to the stars we couldn't afford to have these types around. And this lake of fire; could it be the Sun?
There is no other candidate for identification as this fiery lake. According to the celestial mechanics of the Solar System as outlined earlier in this series, all matter will one day return to the Sun. Might be a good idea to head out before that happens. And it will happen! In fact, given the infinite reaches of this Universe - there are others - we may with some degree of certitude posit that this is a regular occurrence in the cosmos.
Much of what has been covered thus far is validated by the information found in Genesis, chapter six. Here we find that " sons of god saw the daughters of men, that they were fair, and took unto themselves such as they chose as wives." This passage tells us two things; that the Lords were Christs ( sons of god ) and that their interest in the daughters of men were to produce children. As to the designation, Christ: this is the spiritual state of absolute humility and dependence upon the Spirit of the Universe. Fundamentalists tell us that Jesus was the only begotten son of God; the Nicene Creed tells us that he was not begotten, and the man himself made no allusion to the subject. But he did tell his disciples, " Think not what you will eat or wear ... your Father knows ye have need of these things." Stock 'christian' thinking is a morass of confusion, contradiction, half-formed thoughts, and outright lies. The Bible clearly states that it was the ' sons of god ' that mated with native women - when they were fair. One must wonder what they were like before they were fair, and whom the Lords were taking to wife then.

The Lords of the World are a model for what forward thinking seers envision for certain members of our race: those with the right stuff to borrow from the title of a motion picture of years ago. Such people would have to demonstrate a nearly perfect dedication to the mission, a matchless capacity for co-operation, a loving spirit free of judgement, condemnation, greed, and deviousness of any kind; they would be free of envy, jealousy, covetousness, and self-seeking. This would be the ultimate one-way trip and no consideration would be left to chance.
The Lords of the World were Christs, and if we survive to realize this sunlime dream, we must find such character, dignity, humility, and grace, from among our own.
That is truly why we are encouraged to adopt virtues akin to sainthood; not that we must be somber, morbidly serious, or wear hair shirts - that is just an act put on by those who believe that such demonstrations are valid. No, God loves a cheerful spirit, one who spreads love and joy in his path, who makes others smile and feel good about themselves, and who turns his back on no one who truly wishes to follow the True Path to redemption.
Make no mistake; we are talking about the very survival of our species into perpetuity. The smugly complacent, self righteous who claim to be 'saved' are whistling in the wind. They speak of brotherly love but practice intolerance, they claim to be seekers of truth but their minds are set on an outlandish fable that has been relentlessly hammered into their minds. They fail in the basic spiritual ideal of Live and Let Live. The self same people who bridle at being on 'hold' for five minutes yet have been waiting over two-thousand years for Jesus to return. Why would the man wish to retuirn? After all he gave us a pattern of living to assimilate but which we have all but totally ignored. Who bombs abortion clinics? The descendants of those who set fire to those who didn't agree with their preposterous ideas, and who to this day make war on any person or group they deem unworthy.

To be contimnued.
