The Search for Spirituality
Amidst the Artificial Realities of Global Materialism

He has made everything appropriate in its time He has also set eternity in their heart, yet so that man will not find out the work which God has done from the beginning even to the end. (Ecclesiastes 3:11)

 

Conscious of Eternity

Although the timelessness of spiritual awareness resides in the heart of every person, we mostly fail to grasp the ultimate reality of God and his work. Instead, humans create artificial realities that confuse and deceive. To escape this auto-woven trap, we seek the aid and guidance of spiritual mediators. To find answers to the big, enduring questions of life, most human beings look to those few who seem more in contact with the spiritual or metaphysical domain of the universe. Others look within themselves becoming philosophers, at least in part.

One of the most famous ancient philosophers was Solomon, usually considered the author of the following words:

I know that everything God does will remain forever; there is nothing to add to it and there is nothing to take from it, for God has so worked that men should fear Him. That which is has been already and that which will be has already been, for God seeks what has passed by.

Furthermore, I have seen under the sun that in the place of justice there is wickedness and in the place of righteousness there is wickedness. I said to myself, "God will judge both the righteous man and the wicked man," for a time for every matter and for every deed is there. I said to myself concerning the sons of men, "God has surely tested them in order for them to see that they are but beasts."

For the fate of the sons of men and the fate of beasts is the same. As one dies so dies the other; indeed, they all have the same breath and there is no advantage for man over beast, for all is vanity. All go to the same place. All came from the dust and all return to the dust.

Who knows that the breath of man ascends upward and the breath of the beast descends downward to the earth? (Ecclesiastes 3:14-21)

By definition God inhabits immortal eternity, and humans are temporally mortal. God’s identity and personness as a self-existent omnipotent being is expressed in the created universe observant and metaphysical. His promises, purposes and works endure forever, which is a function of time, because God is the Designer and Sustainer of time. From antiquity humans have attempted to leave their names and other impressions of their creative powers behind as they move through their brief wisps of material, bounded-by-time existence. Such efforts may be as biologically simple as children reared to adulthood or as complex as successful organizations that transcend centuries.

Aware of our own mortality, humans question the permanence of the Creator’s natural universe that seems to endure throughout time even as the earth itself cycles forward from season to season. Observing the natural web of life, we question how can, or why are, humans any different from the other sentient animal species?

Materially or scientifically, no one can present hard evidence for the existence of the metaphysical realm, of effably intangible spiritual reality. Hard, measurable facts do not exist concerning what happens after death, or that death is all that different for people than it is for animals. By definition, spiritual matters transcend the material and are not themselves subject to material observation and measurement, although evidences of spiritual activity may be subject to scientific investigation.

For the same reasons, I cannot concretely provide answers to these questions that stand up to scientific standards of proof either, but I seek to provide a rational examination of intangible evidence though observation of the natural world. Despite the present impossibility of providing material proof for spiritual reality, we humans still look for its ineffable evidences in a quest for ultimate truth. Animals do not do that. Most biologists do not think that animals are aware of time beyond the immediate present plus or minus some minutes, possibly hours in some cases. Animals do not behave in a manner that is conscious of the past or future, being guided by instinct. Even primates do not ask uncoached questions about eternity.

The above is not the only quote from the Bible that describes human life as naturally being little more than that of animals. There are really quite a few. Indeed, the Bible consistently warns of and describes the judgments of God – sometimes within a historical context of observed and experienced mortality and sometimes within the realm of eternal judgment. The matter is further confused biblically because the biblical “eternity” often means something more like “as long as the earth exists” or “as long as the sun, moon and stars shine and the earth rotates daily as it orbits around the sun.” Here are a couple of verses that also state human life is similar to that of animals:

But man in his pomp will not endure; he is like the beasts that perish. (Psalm 49:12)

Man in his pomp, yet without understanding, is like the beasts that perish. (Psalm 49:20)

In chapter 4, I described a life force or breath of natural, material life that is shared by all living things. In particular, this description implies that humans and sentient animals share the breath of life in a uniquely common way. In the Genesis description of the Great Flood, Noah and his family build a huge barge to carry representatives of all animal life with them through the rising waters. Specifically mentioned is the fact that the animals share the breath of life with humans – that our biological metabolisms are closely related. (Genesis 7:15, 21-22)

Getting back to Solomon’s opening observation that humans and animals similarly die and that the breath of life (spirit) expires from both. He asks, “Who knows that the breath of man ascends upward and the breath of the beast descends downward to the earth?”

His question rises from the prevailing belief of his age that humans somehow had a spiritual future but animals did not. Solomon’s point is that no definitive, materially demonstrable proof can be provided to answer those questions. As far as we can scientifically determine, people die just like animals die. However, humans have a sense, an expectation or hunch that there is more purpose to one’s consciousness than the brief vapor of a biological life ending in a certain and endless death due to the loss of the life force for one cause or another. This mental outreach for the spiritual both created and molded the intervening role of mediator – human and otherwise - throughout the course of civilization.

Human mortality is a scientific fact. God’s purpose in making us mortal was to inspire a humble admission of, and action on, truth. Mortality gives each of us a tool to stop fooling ourselves, to break the psychological images of false reality that bind us in spiritual darkness. If a person can accept the truth of his or her mortality, that one truth can lead to others, which is the path towards the creation of a truly liberated immortal identity forged from the true, unshaded immortal light of unconditional grace and righteous love described in Chapter 9. This process of balanced physical growth and spiritual maturation also requires mediation. The greatest proof for the purpose of this truth is the great lie that everyone survives death somehow to live forever: believing this lie, a person can avoid, ignore and/or despise any inconvenient biblical truth or the ultimate reality that there really might be an immortal, omnipotent, holy and righteous Creator-Judge God.

Natural Human Need for Mediation

This is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil. (1John 3:19)

… God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth; but if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. (1John 1:5-7)

Many people do not desire any mediation or any mediator messing with their lives. They are well pleased with their lives. Their love of darkness is anything but a yearning for the eternal light of ultimate reality or God. They are pre-occupied and distracted by the excitement of making their own temporal and artificial light from the null breath of life or dark light. Nonetheless, I think that most people are not happy about living in the dark neighborhoods of inner consciousness and/or having to socially interact with others under confusing contexts of good and evil, which often result in suffering, hard feelings, fear, hate, loss, oppression, abuse – in other words, anything but happiness and peaceful well-being.

This disconnect between light and darkness, between human ideals of what is good and what people actually experience, creates a gap requiring mediation to bridge it. The Bible states this truth plainly: God is pure light – pure holy righteous Spirit - with no darkness whatsoever. Everything else has a varying amount of darkness, which means it is not pure light. By this analogy, the spiritual goal of each person, of humanity, is to move from darkness (or a deceptive darkness that seems like light) to the true spiritual light of God.

Modern western thought generally conceives of God as good. As a civilization, we are deeply divided in how each of us defines what is good or evil. We often consider ourselves to be spiritual beings living in fleshly houses illuminated by a uniquely colored, artificial spiritual light of our own choosing or concoction, though significantly influenced by the circumstances of birth.

Politically correct perspective proclaims that all of these colorful variations are simply different shades or frequencies of the same light source. I agree; however, the natural light source for every person alive is the dark light, the light mixed with darkness, the black luminance of the Dark Lord, which itself is a false light, an artificial reality light frequency of the spirit of inseparably forged good and evil spiritual power. Satan still thinks he is Lucifer, the father of that light because he “created” it by his rebellion of inserting shadow sins of deceptive distortions. Every being alive, human and angel will soon learn the truth about the Father of Lying Light.

Digital Design Means Decision Options

One of the great mysteries of beginnings is how both the physical and metaphysical realms of the material universe (dimensions 1-11) became a balanced mixture of light and darkness, good and evil. Did it, or how could it, come from or be created by a source of pure goodness?

By design, beings with spiritual potential must make choices. Just as light is intelligently and decidedly digitized to carry many different messages, so the life force carries a smooth gradient between the nodes of pure dark and pure light, pure void and pure presence. Human beings are never purely evil or good. The digital nature of light and the life force thus create a demand for constant decision making at many levels. Since evil, suffering and death are much worse than neutrally pleasant, there must be a greater purpose for their existence than to exist as mere foils for what is good. In other words, we do not need to experience evil in order to experience goodness: goodness is not merely defined as the absence of or opposite of evil.

How did evil come to be when the Bible states plainly that the Creator of the universe is pure goodness – pure light without any darkness? How can evil proceed from pure goodness?

This is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you, that God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness at all. (1John 1:5)

The universe extends from God’s throne of omnipotence and pure light to the absolute zero of the minutest particle. Digital Spirituality contends that the universe is one, that the physical and metaphysical realms compose one continuum of reality supported by a similar continuum of power analogous and more extensive, yet parallel to the radiant electromagnetic spectrum. The physical universe is filled with supernovas and black holes, matter and anti-matter, energy and dark energy, matter and dark matter. Brought down to earth, human spirituality is full of the life force, the yang and yin, chi and prana of biological being and more. All is held in a balance according to universal physical laws, not all of which we understand.

How did this all come about? What is its purpose, if anything? What clues does it give us in our search for spirituality?

Natural Spirituality sets the balance of the life force as its goal or definition of success and health, but the life force does not itself transcend beyond a perceived immortality of the now, which is theoretically achieved at the speed of light. For people to approach the transcendence of the life force requires the mediation of spiritual experts and/or the intervention of spirit beings that operate beyond light speed, as well as the sacrifices (extreme effort, if nothing else) and dedicated focus of the searcher. And what may be achieved?

Experiential evidence is limited to unverifiable perceptions of psychobiological sensations interpreted as being spiritual transcendence or transformation; however, despite all of the literature and workshops, every participant remains mortally subject to death. The only probable exception is Jesus/Yeshua, the Messiah of Israel and proclaimed Son of God by the resurrection from the dead. (Romans 1:4) If He did not come back bodily from the dead, then Paul wrote that the Bible becomes mythology and the promises of God untrustworthy. Fortunately, there were many credible witnesses. (1Corinthians 15:1-14)

Theoretical contentions that the soul is itself an immortal shard sheered off an immortal wholeness that is God, or that death is but a doorway to reincarnation cannot be verified objectively either. Billions of people believe in reincarnation but differ in their explanations of what happens because no one really knows. What we have is indirect evidence that is not objectively verifiable and repeatable according to physical or even metaphysica law. The indirect evidence is interpretative, which means it is subject to human fallibility – whether individual and/or collective in origin and dogma.

The digital spirituality model postulates a recycling of the life force and the decomposition of bodies. Since the soul - our individual existence/personal identity, is the intangible product resulting from the temporally real biological intersect of the life force and a body, it ceases to exist when body and spirit are separated at death. The personal thought and experience impressions we make on the life force travel away from the present and cannot be recalled naturally. Time radiates with light in straight motion even though it cycles. The result is a constantly new present with patterns from the past due to the intrinsically constant, indivisibly melded good and evil nature of the life force. Because the source of human nature does not change, the permutations from that source repeat themselves in the lives of many separate persons. Each of us is indeed unique, but sets of our similar personalities and character profiles are identified and classified for marketing and psychological study.

All of the experiential evidence testified on behalf of the soul’s immortality could have been fabricated in one way or another by deceitful fallen angels, so we must be cautious in assigning significance to documented testimony of perceived former lives. Spirit beings, unlike humans, have lived throughout the ages and possess data memories to the finest detail about every person and event they were around or influenced. They can easily draw on these memories to impersonate someone. Memories of former “lives” or séance visits of “dearly departed souls’ can be easily faked by any fallen angel. The behavioral melding of demons and people from heavy influence to possession has been documented and experienced from transcultural antiquity. It would be easier than taking a character role in a movie for a demon to impersonate anyone of the many humans it had known or possessed – regardless of the degree of influence or possession.

Every traditional human culture presents abundant evidence for the existence of angels, demons and spirit beings of other names. I believe that they truly exist and have blessed humanity with miracles and gifts, but they have also plagued us with much suffering, sorrow, deceit, destruction and death. The debates between humans simply revolve around which angels or gods are good and which ones are evil. It is a circular conundrum caused by the relentlessly reoccurring attributes of good and evil, light and dark, male and female qualities of the life force. By its intrinsic nature, the life force is at once wholly and severally any gradient combination of these opposing qualities.

So the seeker of positive or healthy spirituality has a choice to make. Does he or she accept the very real good and evil limitations of the life force and endeavor to practice some golden balance for the length of one’s natural life? Or does one risk faith in a mediator and/or way of mediation in order to transcend the limitations of the natural balancing act and enter into the mystical kingdom of supernatural perfection? Does one accept the evil with the good and try to create a personal reality of temporal balance to the positive? Or does one seek entry to the eternal realms of pure light and bliss, which is not the same as a reward typified by a boring indolence of surfeited intellect or sensuality.

Such a choice currently exists for individuals, but our modern globalized society is headed for total implosion and violent destruction. I sincerely doubt that all of the well-intentioned people in the world can prevent it from happening, though we should try to do so. Even humanly, we should never give up doing what is good – the best we know, though the metaphysical structure of our planet’s present situation makes the future dark unless there is a divine counterbalance. The maw of consuming evil is steadily but inexorably, overwhelming nature as well as any naturally balanced spiritual systems operating among the human population.

Ultimately, the good intentions of life force balanced people will be used against all of us. All humanitarian organizations and philanthropic works will be captured and manipulated by the angels of darkness who are driven by necessity to consume the life force of our entire planet. They do so in a vain effort to put off the inevitable end of their fall from heaven, because that fall was not a one-time event but a process that even now continues into the certain future of eventually hitting the prophetic pavement of their de-energized demise.

Death Defined Systemically

If goodness is defined as that which trends towards life, and evil is defined by that which trends towards death, then the Kingdom of Darkness is the Kingdom of Death. To understand the Kingdom of Darkness better, we need to understand death better. By analyzing the components and process of mortality and death in the physical realm of science and nature, we will gain valuable insights into the nature of evil and its spiritual perpetrators. We face a real battle, and we should know our enemies well enough to strategize effectively against them.

In simplest terms, death occurs once a certain amount of energy or heat is lost: death is the result of terminal hypothermia. Biological systems require a certain level of heat to function that is particular to that system. This is true whether we are considering an internal biological function or an ecosystem of many organisms. In the largest sense, the earth is alive because of the energy it receives from the sun. All biological life on earth depends upon the successful conversion of solar radiation in all forms to usefully consumable biological fuels or food. This is what chlorophyll, food and metabolism are all about. Without food we die of starvation.

If our metabolism cannot convert stored body energy fast enough to sustain functional warmth in the face of external environmental cooling, we also die. This is what happens when a person falls into cold water: it is a metabolic race between the body’s capability of generating heat to its limbs and core and the physical equations of heat transfer and absorption from the body mass into the much larger water mass. Survival strategies for dealing with cold-water accidents are founded on these axioms.

Energy always flows from hot to cold, high to low intensity. That is what weather is all about. This fact effectively challenges heating and cooling any structure. It is the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics at work, and it applies to the smallest one-celled organism and the largest star. It may also be conceptually applied to economic and social systems. A business must make sufficient profit to account for its operational inefficiencies and the variables of its external environment (suppliers, competition and customers, etc.). A continuing enterprise must also provide for innovation, continuous employee development and leadership succession to survive over any length of time.

The loss of heat below sustainable, which means growing at a sufficient but not too high of rate (here defined as growing at a sufficient but not too high of rate) in any subsystem affects the whole system. If it is large enough, then it can kill the whole system. If a person loses air or too much blood, death occurs. If a business loses suppliers, death occurs – even if everything else is operating at top levels. Similarly, economic systems suffer and fail when they cannot productively apportion and use resources in a manner that supports business growth and development. The causes could be many, such as when insufficient currency, unjust - unwise taxes and/or improperly regulated markets do not efficiently effect the authentic transactional exchanges needed to deliver the goods and services required for a society to more than just survive.

Because of the 2 nd Law of Thermodynamics, homeostasis in natural systems cannot be functionally defined as evenly balanced: they must be biased in favor of growth levels sufficient to compensate for the loss of energy, due to various reasons. In the physical realm of the universe, just staying alive consumes energy and any additional work increases biological energy expenditure. Statistical tools exist that help managers to anticipate where energy loss is likely occur over a projected period of time in business and social systems, but it is impossible to foresee all of the specific instances, their timing and degree of systems impact. The specifics cannot be precisely predetermined and planned for without some inclusion of general contingency that provides an excess of positive balance in the form of natural redundancy, reproductive surplus or profit that leads to stored reserves.

This observation holds true for all 11 parallel dimensions of the universe. Both physical and metaphysical dimensions of the universe experience a downward, entropic flow of energy from source to void, from the birth of a galaxy to the all-consuming black hole that destroys all matter and energy entering it. Of course, we cannot measure or observe all of the specific functions of black holes. We do not know if they are transfer mechanisms between dimensions or otherwise, but what seems true on the smallest scale holds true for the largest scale that we can observe and describe mathematically.

How did this come to be? Does energy somehow eternally recycle in a pulsing steady state of existence? Alternatively, did everything come from a Creator or First Cause that is an eternal, unending, self-generating source of power in the form of pure light in which there is no darkness? My bias is obviously the latter conclusion, but we should be open to consider and respect other opinions even as each must answer these questions for himself or herself. In concluding that there is a Creator as I have, I must answer the obvious question, “How does evil come into existence from a purely good source?”

At best, my answers must be considered by the materialist to be unprovable inferences, because even the Bible gives few facts about the beginning of everything. Those facts are a bit cryptic as well, but I find the concept of reality that I have built from them plausible and hence tested as true within the context of spiritual laws that explain much more than anything else I have encountered. Importantly, they create fewer unanswered questions than anything else I have encountered. More importantly, they contribute and trend to life through pragmatic application in everyday living. Perhaps they will make sense to you, too.

What is a Mediator?

It is time to stop and get some definitions. The concept of mediator and mediation is broader than most of us think when we hear the word. How we define “mediator” is greatly influenced by the context of our lives, including experiences past and present. Here is a selection of definitions that highlight some of the aspects discussed in this chapter.

me·di·a·tor, noun

one that mediates; especially: a mediating agent (as an enzyme or hormone) in a chemical or biological process <substance P, a neuropeptide mediator of analgesic stimuli in peripheral sensory nerves —D. R. Robinson>

mediator, noun

a negotiator who acts as a link between parties 

mediate (mē'dē-āt')

To effect or convey a force between subatomic particles. The gauge bosons, for example, mediate the four fundamental forces of nature.

mediate, adjective

1. acting through or dependent on an intervening agency; "the disease spread by mediate as well as direct contact" 
2. being neither at the beginning nor at the end in a series; "adolescence is an awkward in-between age"; "in a mediate position"; "the middle point on a line" 

mediate, verb

1. act between parties with a view to reconciling differences; "He interceded in the family dispute"; "He mediated a settlement" 
2. occupy an intermediate or middle position or form a connecting link or stage between two others; "mediate between the old and the new" 

Mediation between this world and the next is an almost universal requirement in all spiritual disciplines. As mentioned several times earlier in this book, the barriers between the two are real and significant. The concept and function of mediation is broader than most of us understand and use the word. Like all words, aspects of the broader concept are focused by context into more specific functions or roles performed in the process of mediation. This is why I inserted a selection of definitions. The theme of the word is the linking or connecting of two entities that would naturally be distinct and separated as well as the transfer of some substance, force or power between two entities that would not otherwise take place.

The vast international resources of science and the military have addressed some important material challenges presented by the barriers of physics when it comes to the transformation of matter into energy and vice versa with some explosive but limited success. Some theorize the possibility of body or material transfer devices or travel at speeds exceeding the speed of light through a “hyperspace” made so popular by science fiction, but reality is far more complex. The barrier of light speed seems impossible to breach. The best technology can only approach the speed of light, and perhaps particle accelerators create collisions that send bits and pieces of atoms into another dimension, but we have no instruments capable of measuring where they go. Scientists develop mathematical models that theoretically hypothecate probabilities of transfer. Philosophically or scientifically, we cannot even be sure that an electron floating in and out of its shell around an atomic nucleus is even the same one, though there are no indications that anything changed as far as the stability and properties of that particular atom show.

According to the thesis presented in these pages, the search for spirituality must minimally access the natural life force operating at the speed of light in order to experience a sense of eternity. Since the speed of light is slowing down, we know that both light and its speed are material, meaning that at some point all energy will be lost, so the perceived sense of eternity that we can achieve on our own is still temporal. The barrier between temporality and eternity is one that spirituality must address. The other is the matter of eternity’s quality – how it is experienced. No one is interested in eternity for eternity’s sake: living forever is only desired if that life is expected to be pleasant, interesting and creatively dynamic.

Removing evil is one of the great objectives and purposes for the barrier between temporality and eternity. My thesis is that temporality is a training ground where evil is permitted so that it may be eliminated by exercise of free will and the human level of forgiveness required to reboot one’s life after suffering loss or failure. Every training or learning program demands the exercise of experience where good is perfected and performance hindrances are forgotten or eliminated. Spirituality’s second challenge is to transfer into the metaphysical dimension the beneficial capacity for choosing and being a goodness that was created for or accomplished in the physical dimension of reality. Since learning is always a process, the transferring mediation from this life into the next must be dynamic and flexible. It must secure positive advances in some areas, screen out the negative in others and do so with a live, always on interface while the ultimate spiritual objectives of ultimate reality remain unattained.

Birth of the Kingdom of Darkness

Lucifer, the “star of the morning” or “son of the dawn” was the most important angel in God’s Kingdom before he rebelled. Literally, the Hebrew his name is Heyl-el ben Shachar, usually translated Venus the son of the morning dawn (Morning Star). The root derivation of the name Heyl-el communicates the “force, strength or bravery of God” like the Hebrew heyl-avir translates to “air force” where avir means “air.”

So the light force of God shone through Satan as described by the Latin name, Lucifer or “light carrier.” God is light, and science teaches us that light is digital power – everything as depicted by the rainbow over God’s throne. When Lucifer rebelled, he became Satan the Adversary. Bang! Lucifer’s sin more quickly than instantaneously separated himself and everything under his dominion from God. (Isaiah 59:2) All the dimensions of today’s metaphysical and material universe instantly came into being as did time. About one third of the angels rebelled with Heyl-el ben Shachar, and they “fell” from God’s throne, or the Third Heaven, into the temporal spiritual realm of the Second Heaven, which includes the first heaven of our earth’s atmosphere.

The act of Lucifer’s rebellion introduced distortional darkness into the spirit power of God going through him to sustain the universe. Satan’s disobedience resulted in a massive shorting of eternal omnipotence. Lucifer’s sin was a behavioral one that distorted the pure power of God into something new, the Life Force of good and evil inseparably mixed, the black light of null. The Life Force is the spiritual power that sustains the Second and First Heavens. Because the Life Force is a temporal spiritual power constrained by time, the dimensions of the Second Heaven comprise a metaphysical realm of the material universe, and the metaphysical realm of fallen angels is not eternal but temporal.

The structure of fallen angels or demons is one of broken metaphysical bodies empowered by the temporal spiritual power of the Life Force. When the angels sinned, they earned an immediate sentence of eternal destruction, which has been suspended in the temporal realm of the material universe now sustained by the dark light of the good and evil life force. Satan remains the mediator of the life force and continues to promote the lie that it is holy. Most demons call themselves gods or goddesses. Though still immensely powerful when compared to any physical being, the realm of fallen angels is limited and subject to further drops in energy intensity as the outcome of “war in heaven.” In short, the angels’ “fall” is a process set into motion by a singular event that also possesses a definitive, predetermined end concurrent with the end of the material universe.

The only reason that God permits the existence of fallen angels and evil is that his plan will not work without it. Satan is the best instructor in the ways of evil because he invented it! So he and his demons are permitted to operate evilly among the nations of humanity. Through this school of hard knocks, God inoculates the saints against any inclination to choose evil once born to eternity by allowing us to suffer its consequences now in the flesh as mortals. As a result, the saints freely choose God’s definition of love and righteousness. Unfortunately, there have been, are and will be some who become so distorted by evil that they reject God’s ways. Their fate is to be destroyed with the devil and his demons.

The following verses taken from biblical contexts communicate on multiple levels. The verses have historic applications to real persons as well as prophetic applications to future persons that I will not describe here. Most Bible scholars agree that they also refer to the fallen angel known as Satan, who was once named Lucifer, “star of the morning.”

How you have fallen from heaven,
O star of the morning, son of the dawn!

You have been cut down to the earth,
You who have weakened the nations!

But you said in your heart,
'I will ascend to heaven;
I will raise my throne above the stars of God,
And I will sit on the mount of assembly
In the recesses of the north.

'I will ascend above the heights of the clouds;
I will make myself like the Most High.'

Nevertheless you will be thrust down to Sheol,
To the recesses of the pit. (Isaiah 14:12-15)

You had the seal of perfection,
Full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.

You were in Eden, the garden of God;
Every precious stone was your covering:
The ruby, the topaz and the diamond;
The beryl, the onyx and the jasper;
The lapis lazuli, the turquoise and the emerald;
And the gold, the workmanship of your settings and sockets,
Was in you.

On the day that you were created
They were prepared.

You were the anointed cherub who covers,
And I placed you there.
You were on the holy mountain of God;
You walked in the midst of the stones of fire.

You were blameless in your ways
From the day you were created
Until unrighteousness was found in you.

By the abundance of your trade
You were internally filled with violence,
And you sinned;
Therefore I have cast you as profane
From the mountain of God.

And I have destroyed you, O covering cherub,
From the midst of the stones of fire.

Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty;
You corrupted your wisdom by reason of your splendor
I cast you to the ground… (Ezekiel 28:12-17)

And He [Jesus] said to them, "I was watching Satan fall from heaven like lightning.” (Luke 10:18) [Added for clarity.]

The Bible is silent about when Satan initiated his rebellion, when it/he (Satan is not male or female, but English traditionally defaults to the male gender.) was removed from its/his exalted position, and when God started to plan for the reconciliation of His universe. But the best conclusion is that Lucifer’s fall occurred prior to the creation of people, Satan started a rebellion in the Third Heaven. The Bible indicates that millions of angels rebelled against God, which I interpretively paraphrased in my poem, The Song of Odomo. This massive rebellion spread throughout the universe, and it is not over yet. Why did Lucifer rebel?

Perhaps God was invisible to the angelic beings. Speaking and communicating to the seemingly empty throne of an invisible boss requires absolute trust and obedience. Just as Heaven seems to be empty today to most mortals, so it was to the angels. Even Jesus mentioned that He would ascend to sit “at the right hand of the power of God.” (Luke 22:69) If true, then God was not perceived directly – only indirectly. The orders from Him also came indirectly – mediated through the three cherubim that surrounded His throne: one on each side and one above, covering it. Israel’s Ark of the Covenant showed the remaining loyal cherubs at each side of the otherwise empty throne, but the third covering it from above was gone. (Exodus 25:17-22)

The missing third angel over the mercy seat was Lucifer, the “star of the morning” or “son of the dawn.” Literally, the Hebrew is Heyl-el ben Shachar, Venus the son of the morning dawn (Morning Star). The root derivation of the name Heyl-el communicates the “force, strength or bravery of God” like the Hebrew heyl-avir translates to “air force” where avir means “air.” So the force of God shone through Satan as is also described by the Latin name, Lucifer or “light carrier.” God is light, and science teaches us that light is digital power – everything as depicted by the rainbow over God’s throne. By the way, that rainbow would show all of the bands of electromagnetic radiation – both this side of light speed and the other – perhaps 12 bands in all according to the Rosetta Stone ratio of 7 bands of color on this side of light speed and 5 bands on the other as postulated by Herbert Stollorz in his books.

Dark Mediator of the Life Force

Heyl-el ben Shachar originally mediated God’s power to the rest of the heavenly realm. Pride entered into his mental operations corrupting them permanently. Unlike God and humans, angels are behavioral beings not created in the image or after the likeness of God. Disobedient behavior breaks them functionally in a way that permanently twists and distorts their cybernetic operation. As I will show later, the Bible states that all angels were created to execute a range of tasks, which functionality was built into their metaphysical bodies and brains. The inclusion of something not originally built into them or the damage, distortion or removal of something in their structured being breaks them beyond repair. It would be like punching extra holes, twisting or otherwise modifying those old computer cards that guided the operations of early computers and mediated the input and output of data to them.

As the highest cherub over the throne in God’s apparent absence, Lucifer began to represent to the other angels that the power of the throne coming through him was his. In an all-out attempt to sit on the throne itself – to speak his own orders instead of obeying an unseen voice - Heyl-el ben Shachar became Satan, the Adversary. At the moment of his rebellion, Satan was cut off from the 12th dimension, “falling” into the lower 11. He or it was no longer the mediating transfer agent of God’s divine power. He became a consuming void, a spirit power vacuum in the voracious consumption of the available life force stolen from the residual operation of the universe in order to continue the now twisted execution of what he was designed for – power transfer. His malfunction spread to the angels under him and to any angel aligning itself to Heyl-el ben Shachar’s mediating transmission of collected spirit power.

Through Satan - the Mediator of the Life Force, the purely good divine power had been transformed into an inseparably good-evil admixture of his lies or artificial realities and the true light of God. This potent spiritual force infected its receivers with varying forms of evil mixed with the good introduced with it. Satan’s malfunction spread faster than the most egregious computer virus. Millions of angels rebelled with him becoming demons. Demonic identity now fixed after the manner of their distorted deviation from their divinely purposed design – the specifics of their sin rebellion is the unique signature of their behaviorally-based identity. Since their original behavior, corrupted by the particular flavor of their rebellion or sin, became their new identity, they sought to replicate themselves by conforming others to their form of deviance – both among other angelic beings as well as among humans, once they existed.

Perhaps Satan had boldly lied that the invisible Godhead had become visible in himself: that he was God. God found himself embroiled in the midst of idol worship around his holy Throne. The Eternal Creator saw His most perfect and powerful angel in open rebellion. His holy Name and authority were disrespectfully polluted by the rebels’ arrogance. Instead of order and beauty, turmoil and violent unrest erupted everywhere as the whole creation entered into chaos. When evil entered a good creation, darkness became part of the life force - changed from being only light to a balance of light and darkness.

With Satan and the demons becoming roaming, consuming power voids, short circuits in the sustained operations of the universe, God needed to add power to the system to permit life to continue, which He did through a re-creation of the physical realm as recorded in the first verses of the Bible. Out of chaos, God created a biologically life-sustaining environment of plants and animals, balanced in natural laws now described by science. The necessary operational energies of the universe eventually became stabilized by a self-adjusting balance between light and dark forms of matter and energy because the Creator decided to sustain a universe in rebellion in order to accomplish a higher purpose.

God would create mortal beings who could make mistakes and not necessarily be permanently broken. Possessing the capacity for creating artificial realities, they could learn from experience within the context of a material universe that by nature was limited by time and the kinds of energy available. They could change the shape of their images, and this feature provided the potential to birth self-directed beings who would freely choose his nature and definition of unconditional love over every other conceivable alternative, which was now being offered as spiritual truths by Satan and the demons. The humans’ exercise of free will creativity would lead to the birth of a multitude of beings like himself – each a unique expression of his kind of love.

These mortal beings would freely choose to discover and exercise personal expressions of divinely defined unconditional love instead of inventing their own definitions of love by re-writing what is right and what is wrong. His purpose was self-determination and definition within the bounds of eternal love undefiled, holy: people who would choose an identity from how he or she expressed the Father’s love instead of by how they deviated from it or redefined it. Because their choice was freely exercised, they would learn not to rebel while living in the flesh, which mortal composition also served the function of potential damage control. Strength of character established and preserved within a fleshly body subject to the seductive allures of fallen spirits in a fallen world would possess the tempered quality that could not, because it would not, become corrupt throughout eternity.

God re-established control of His government by removing all rebellious angels from His presence. Any who had violated His name or broken His commands were suddenly gone from the Third Heaven, relegated to the 11 dimensions of descending power. Describing this event as a “fall” refers to the falling energy levels typical of the descending dimensions and not to a descent in atmospheric altitude, except by analogy. From the day of their rebellion, Satan and the rebellious angels had failed their test of loyalty to God’s high standards of serving love. When they “fell” from His grace, they also began their fall to powerlessness because they were cut off from the source of all. Because they did not obey their Creator and Ruler in sightless faith, He cut them off from direct access to His throne of emanating power: they “fell” from the Third Heaven of God’s presence into the Second Heaven of the parallel dimensions around the earth.

Those angels who did not rebel had passed their test. They remained directly part of the Third Heaven, trusted agents of God’s throne and powered by the pure energies of the Creator’s transcendent love, the eternal light. One lesson from this event for us as humans is that we will never experience the metaphysical in a manner sufficiently tangible so as to eliminate the sightlessness of faith. If that were to happen, then God’s principal tool of character development would be eliminated.

Satan and the demons were only permitted direct access to God’s presence when He had some role for them to play in afflicting human trial as a part of His overall plan for humanity. (Job 1) Otherwise, they were cut off from the power source of pure light, goodness, joy, peace and love. All fallen spirits became desperately dependent on acquiring access to the reduced intensity power levels of the “lower” 11 dimensions of the universe. They became power parasites fighting over life force batteries or concentrations. I think the astrological system describes how Satan has organized the power-sharing features of his kingdom of darkness. They became power parasites fighting over life force batteries or concentrations of spiritual heat. They became “heat-seeking” dynamos of destruction.

Astrology

I think the astrological system describes how Satan has organized the power-sharing features of his kingdom of darkness, thus astrological phenomena fall within the biblical description of Satan as the prince of the power of the breath of life, the air. If this is true, then his demonic host would be lower agents of the same power.

And you were dead in your trespasses and sins, in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience.

Among them we too all formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest. (Ephesians 2:1-3)

All limited resources must be rationed. To the fallen angels or demons, Satan remains the “light-bringer” who dispenses the general powers of the universe to them. In both ancient religions and their various astrological teachings, Satan/Lucifer has been consistently identified with both the Sun and the Moon deities. Other major deities were associated with various planets, brightest stars and constellations. Astrology interprets how the positional relationships between these heavenly bodies in the sky influence or direct affairs between people and nations on earth. My hypothesis proposes that the organization and position of the major “lights" in the sky, being planets, comets, asteroids, stars and constellations of stars, reflect how Satan organizes the competing use of the life force charge he can collect and redistribute. That is how Satan maintains what order there may be in his domain or kingdom of fallen angels/stars.

The Bible often refers to angels as stars. (Revelation 1:20) Jesus implied that Satan’s kingdom was indeed organized in a hierarchy. (Matthew 12:26) Each astrological transfer team of demons retransmits their own distorted variety set of good and evil attributes that are generically aligned with the life force frequencies of each person’s body. If significant radiations of the life force come from transfer sets of angelic stars in zodiac constellations as they relate to the movements of the sun and planets, then astrology is the discipline of describing how their competing demands and influences on humans are apportioned as bounded by time. Those influences could be compelling but not determinate in a person’s life since the power of human decision seems to be greater. Moreover, the assumption is that the demons are never satisfied with the level of power that they have so they continually roam about seeking to devour more through close association and possession of animals and people.

I suspect that this natural spiritual alignment is set at first breath when one’s life force antenna inclines a person’s receptivity towards certain positive and negative personality traits at birth. Both positive and negative natural inclinations can be overcome humanly through the exercise of the power of decision. One’s zodiac sign cannot be used as a cop-out excuse for one’s human failing anymore than should a sign’s good points be consciously cultivated in order to increase one’s power, benefits and influence in this world. I do not think that a small amount of astrology study is necessarily harmful because it reveals the strategies of the enemy and may reveal some of our own weaknesses to watch, but astrology should not be studied in depth as a dependable resource for life decisions and spiritual growth. It should not be used as a resource for daily, weekly, monthly or annual guidance. To do so subordinates even the natural powers of our human identities shaped by a free will to the powerful lies of those that would destroy us.

Eventually, Satan and his accomplices will be permanently removed from their jobs. To fill these vacant positions, God is in the process of creating new beings to inhabit eternity with Him from among the humans on earth; meanwhile, God permits Satan to afflict and tempt people with evil. God realized that this test was necessary. Heyl-el ben Shachar had been created perfectly. I think of him as a metaphysical cybernetic, behavior-based being whose hard-wired software went permanently bad. He could not be repaired or re-programmed, so he had to be discarded; however, God found a purpose for evil’s existence and so permitted it free reign within prescribed bounds.

In His love, God decided to develop a process that would build incorruptible character from within that He could count on for eternity. The presence of evil in the material world provided an opportunity to learn its destructive nature within controllable bounds. Unlike metaphysical body substance, fleshly minds or brains could learn from suffering and change their orientation through the exercise of free will – the power of free decision. Unlike angels who became permanently broken from their first behavioral glitch, humans could learn to choose good over evil from the suffering of evil.

By placing this trial with the dimensions of space-time, God placed terminal limits on the existence of evil. People could only live so long, and a universe populated by rebellious angels would only last so long. Faithful obedience in the absence of His visible presence could be tested and used to reveal the true heart or internal workings of humans. From the angelic rebellion, God had learned that He could trust only Himself to mediate His power and perfect love. He also realized that the one-third failure rate (according to most scholars) of perfectly created angels was too high. He required zero defects in His government, so He came up with a way to perfect beings similar to Himself who would not be corrupted by familiarity with the divine or their own exercise of power.

The Three Classes of Human Evil

I can understand the perspective of skeptics who question the existence of an all powerful God or whether the promises of the Bible mean anything beyond one’s inner world of psychological perception and (mis)belief. History and human experience testify unequivocally that the birth, life, death and resurrection of Jesus did not put an immediate end to evil. The social institution of Christmas observance has not brought “peace on earth to men of good will.” Neither has organized religion, human rights movements, socioeconomic reforms or political governance in any format.

History testifies to an almost continuous parade of great injustices since Jesus walked among humanity. My observation is not a judgment of those who have ever worked for the improvement of human life, but a statement of fact. Although some individuals have been generous with their time and resources in furthering peace and understanding between peoples, only a little material progress has been made under recent history’s relatively enlightened socioeconomic-political hegemony of western nations despite their dominant military power. Many millions have prospered under forms of government and economic systems that have rewarded their citizens somewhat more fairly than in past generations. Unfortunately, faceless multitudes have borne the usual panoply of consequential costs so that an elite few may enjoy superabundance. Elsewhere, I discuss the deceitful prosperity and promises of Globalism and expose them for how they destroy the humaneness of humanity as well as an individual’s potential for spiritual growth and development.

To answer these very important questions, I have observed three material classes of evil as originated and experienced by humanity in the physical realm. They are:

1. Institutional Evil imposed, inspired or encouraged by human sociocultural institutions
2. Psychobiological Evil derived from the structure of biological human consciousness
3. Intentional Evil perpetrated by a person’s decision to think and/or do evil

Human society is an artificial reality system occupying specified space and time intersects that are constructed out of social institutions. Human societies and their institutions require constraints to keep them in balance. Effective constraints enforce a desired discipline according to the voluntary choice and application of healthy spiritual principles by all participating parties. Natural Spirituality defines evil as a systemic imbalance severe enough to trend the whole and/or one of its major components towards sickness, dissolution and demise.

The major subsets of human societies compose sociocultural complexes that may be referred to as civilizations, cultures, economic blocks, ages or empires. Human civilization has suffered from great evil. Although the definition of what is evil may be debated between persons and cultures, the fact that evil exists in the human sphere of experience and nature is almost universally admitted. Human society, as an artificial reality of social values, beliefs, mores, traditions, laws and other formal or informal contractual interactions between its members, exists within the universal cause-and-effect context of ultimate reality. In other words, the dissonance between the particular society’s values, laws, etc. and those of the natural universe is what make the social reality artificial – manmade in the face of natural spiritual, economic and or other social laws rooted in essential human nature, the physical laws of the universe as well as its metaphysical principles. If God exists, his nature and purpose are built into all aspects of ultimate reality, which includes the physical universe as humans encounter it. (Romans 1:20)

Social institutions and social systems may operate in deviance of natural laws for a relatively short period of time due to access to external sources of additional energies, wealth or power. Hence, empires expand at the expense of the externally conquered or dominated regions and populations, but usually disintegrate due the internal factors and stresses that build up from their artificial constructs of reality. Nature’s omnipresence supports natural laws – both physical and spiritual. Anything out of harmony with the natural context requires additional energy input exponentially proportionate to the degree of deviance from ultimate reality. As Creator, God is the external support and energy source for the universe and all of its natural systems, laws and forces. (Colossians 1:13-17)

Societies and their institutions of behavior, value systems and economic survival operate through human interactions often referred to as social contracts. Social contract terms are the expectations held by the participants according to their place or systems role in a relationship or organizational set. Some social expectations are formally detailed in third party media such as written contracts or moral and legal codes. Some are simply assumed, believed or understood by the parties based on personally generated ideas defining what the social situation is all about. Of course, problems arise when any of these terms are violated or perceived to be violated. The severity of the problem is directly proportional to the disconnects between informal expectations and/or the severity of any violations of written agreements, laws or culturally enshrined moral behaviors.

Ultimately, the cause of evil is spiritual in nature and rooted in the metaphysical structure of the universe as well as being strongly affected by the activities taking place in the metaphysical realm of reality. The three material classes of evil listed above relate to how evil manifests its presence in the lives of people as experienced on earth throughout time. At this point, I will expand my description of each of them:

1. Institutional Evil imposed, inspired or encouraged by human sociocultural institutions.

   Institutional means socioculturally organized evil perpetrated by a group of people through the practice of a set of behaviors executed in conformity with their socially referenced authority figure, which could be a political, business, family or religious leader. Institutional Evil usually sources from a false ideology perpetrated to effect a power concentrating false reality for a beneficial identity group of adherents. Hitler’s Nazism is a good example of Institutional Evil from relatively recent history. There have been many others. Institutional, structural or systemic racism is another example of Institutional Evil at work.

   No religion, educational system, government, political, philosophical or social movement is immune from the possible practice of Institutional Evil. The participants in Institutional Evil usually believe that they are doing a good thing when, in fact, they are serving the powers of deprivation, destruction and death instead of abundance, peace and life. Presence of Institutional Evil is proved when an organization must force its members to conform to its rules of behavior and/or belief structures. The force applied is mostly social in nature but may also be material. Members who disagree with the ruling social order risk of their own position or social status within the organization - perhaps even to the point of imperiling their biological survival, which is when the institutional compulsion becomes material.

2. Psychobiological Evil derived from the structure of biological human consciousness

   As related in Chapter 7, James 2:26 reveals the structure of human life: a material or physical body made conscious by the life force or breath of life, the union of which creates a third entity called the soul. Souls are naturally mortal because death terminates living conscious identity when the body is separated from the spirit or life force. While the flesh is neutral in regards to matters of good and evil, its function creates appetites or energy needs. Since the life force is an indivisible, gradient meld of good and evil in various proportions that ultimately balance to a null, no humanly originated deed or thought can be purely good or purely evil.

   Accompanying these natural pulls of the flesh and mind is the very human proclivity to self deception. We rationalize our thoughts and behaviors according to self determined or socially inherited/adopted standards of what is right or what is wrong. We persuade ourselves that our chosen definitions for what is good or evil, love or hate are the true ones. Often this process relies on submitting to or identifying with sociocultural institutions (a religious organization, philosophical school of thought, social/humanitarian movement or political party, for example) as reference authorities that confirm morals and beliefs already held dear (or newly chosen). This process is founded on and is sourced from the natural spiritual strength of one’s psychological conviction, moral necessity and/or social acceptance preferences.

   Because it is sourced in the life force, the net product of human self deception is the creation of a god to reflect our synthesized standard of love (definition of good and evil). Usually any person’s concept of God represents a subset of a collectively shared sociocultural image. By making “God” in one’s own image, the need to repent and change is eliminated or melded into something humanly chosen rather than divinely imposed. This subtle pride elevates the mortal conscious identity above the need of submitting to the externally determined, eternal definitions of love, goodness or righteous that compose ultimate reality, the true Creator God. To be fair, no one grasps the fullness of the true God or ultimate reality. Any vision or attempt will fall short – even my own; however, the intrinsic nature of the submission to ultimate reality’s definitions process differs significantly, which I will discuss in chapter 9.

   Thus, undisciplined human nature is a naturally human source of evil. We superimpose our own standards and needs above, over, mixed with and in place of the transcendently true metaphysical definitions of ultimate goodness in order to sustain a fleeting mortal identity existence that relies on biological self-preservation. Fleshly survival drives and the primacy of one’s mortal identity motivate thoughts and actions that ignore eternal considerations. Humans naturally perceive artificial realities of the material realm as more tangible than the spiritual substance of ultimate reality.

   Ego definition, preservation and extension impose prideful acts to control our destiny of ascendancy above others. At the other extreme, we may fearfully conform to the institutions of evil in an exercise of false humility. We may embrace self implosion to a desired nirvana of nothingness in search of existence suffering relief. Some who do so fall under the dominance of destructive spirits that feed off of the human life force. These imploding egos may actively take others with them also. Either extreme, and all points in between, deny God’s purpose for human life. It is a rejection of surrendering control to his divine will expressed in his Word as mediated by his Spirit.

3. Intentional Evil perpetrated by a person’s decision to think and/or do evil.

   A minority of people just do what they want for what they can seize for themselves now in this life. Throughout history, many such individuals became cultural heroes or the icons of their nation. They exert a personal force so strong that they create their own temporary-artificial standards of goodness, which may be adopted and imitated by others. This is a soft kind of intentional evil, as opposed to those hard cases who consciously choose to create, plan and do what this small number and everyone else knows is darkly evil instead of good.

   Truly evil persons are not deceived or confused about what is good or evil: they simply do not care about the consequences of this choice because they love evil despite knowing about goodness. They identify with evil as who he or she is and reject goodness to become intentionally evil. The opened eyed choices and actions of evil in this life eternally condemn those who choose evil as their identity in this life. Remember, intentionally evil people know true goodness but neither continue to attempt nor desire to do it. The biblical Antichrist or “Beast” fits this category, which is why he is directly thrown into the Lake of Fire and skip the Last Judgment, which seems to take the historical issues of institutional evil and deception into consideration. (Revelation 19:20 compared with 20:11-15)

   Some may consciously choose to serve or harmoniously identify with Satan or some other fallen angel with open eyes as to whom they serve, but most who serve fallen spirits are deceived. Their choices are made not for the love of evil but for some form of good, even if it is merely the promise of some material or social benefit. They believe that they obey, worship and engage in the natural or ancestral spiritual powers of their heritage, which are perceived as insights into the ultimate truths revealed to humanity by their “true” God or gods. They participate in what seems to be the only spiritual power available to them, or at least it seems to be right as determined by human logic and perception.

   What they find and practice are forms of natural spirituality, which by definition and structure remains a melded gradient of good and evil. A deceived choice of evil is not an intentional, conscious and free choice of evil: it is confused. The promised material and/or spiritual, and often delivered in whole or in part. Some accomplish significant harmonization with their persona spiritual guides and/or god(s) so that they evidence exceptional levels of spiritual power significantly subject to their own desires, choices and will. Such spiritual powers come from an assisting demonic being or spiritual guide that provides access to greater concentrations of the life force through knowledge and/or mediating efficacy often accompanied by ritual.

Evil exists temporarily – for now, because God established a system that can produce morally incorrupt beings who will not take advantage of the grace and power of His love for selfish gain and exaltation when they enter into eternity. Only God knows how to live happily for eternity, and He requires that all beings there agree with His definitions of love, peace, joy and justice that compose the reality of the 12th dimension or Third Heaven.

But there is a problem. How does a holy, just and loving, God elevate deceived human beings bound in the temporal material realm of the life force into his presence of eternal light? The problem demands a mediating solution, an efficacious and immutably permanent system of identity purification and transfer, and Jesus is the person born for that job. He is unique in the universe for multiple, essential roles in a manner guaranteed to succeed. One of those roles involves the elimination of Institutional Evil through a dual process of material revelation and destructive elimination.

The End of Institutional Evil

The Kingdom of Darkness is the ultimate metaphysical institution of evil. During the great temptation by the devil in Matthew 4, Jesus did not deny that Satan could make him the ruler of all the world's nations. (v. 8-9) Satan could make this offer because he is the god of this age/world. To one degree or another, Satan’s kingdom is responsible for every sin and evil committed, thus it must be eliminated for justice to be served and to fulfill God’s plan of preparing a heavenly kingdom of eternal beings on earth.

Jesus returns soon to humanity’s dimension of space and time to materially reveal and remove institutional evil from the earth. His birth, life, death and resurrection nearly 2,000 years ago guaranteed the ultimate success of achieving those objectives as well as setting them into motion. Jesus’ life on earth as a Jew living under Roman domination spiritually revealed what is good, which automatically exposed evil and the evil one – just as light exposes darkness – to those who graced with spiritual discernment. (John 3:19-21) Jesus’ death and resurrection began the multidimensional process of mediating human identity transformation by satisfying justice through his atoning shed blood so that the truly repentant might receive through faith the graceful gift of God’s Spirit of truth and understanding.

Satan’s dominion currently remains hidden from direct mortal perception, but that will not always be the case. How can people fight an enemy they cannot see? The Bible reveals Satan the devil’s many disguises and roles in the evils of this age, but most people remain blinded to the ultimate spiritual cause of humanity’s Institutional Evils.

At the beginning of time Lucifer the Light Bringer rebelled becoming the Adversary, Satan. His rebellion created the Kingdom of Darkness, which seems to have organized one third of all the angels into a rebellious hierarchy ordered according to the cosmos. The leading angel of light became the Dark Mediator. Not only did his rebellion insert the deviant dark light of evil into the life force so that it became an indivisible mixture of good and evil instead of pure goodness, his kingdom remains actively engaged in deceiving and inspiring further rebellion against God among the human nations. Here is a list of the Enemy’s role titles:

• Father of Lies (John 8:44)
• Adversary (1Peter 5:8)
• God of this World/ Age (2Corinthians 4:4)
• Prince of the Power of the Air (Ephesians 2:2)
• Angel of Light (2Corinthians 11:13-15)
• Beelzebub, Prince of Demons (Matthew 12:22-29)

War in heaven already rages because the appointed time draws near when Satan’s evil empire will be exposed and deposed by the Creator Lord of Hosts. The Bible tells of an Apocalypse or Great Tribulation coming upon all nations of the world, as armies of righteous angels led by Michael, the great archangel of Israel, force the demons of hell out of the metaphysical realm, down through one dimension of lowered energy bandwidth to another until their terrible armies materialize on earth as described in the book of Revelation. They will be exposed so that all flesh alive may finally comprehend the source of all evil and how humanity has been deceived. Humans will materially perceive the nature of the metaphysical battle that has taken place throughout history even as the Son of God becomes unmistakably manifest as well. As the returning King of Israel and King of Kings, Yeshua/Jesus must first remove the existing god of this age and the Kingdom of Darkness so that the Kingdom of Light may be established.

Defining death as the absence of energy rationally necessitates that the total absence of all energy is preceded by its reduction. The reduction of energy levels in the metaphysical realm forces the fallen spiritual beings to descend or fall through the eleventh to sixth dimensions existing at intensities beyond the speed of light until they are forced across the fifth dimension boundary of time and the life force (temporal spiritual power) to eventually materialize in the physical realm just prior to their destruction at the presence of the conquering Messiah Yeshua/Jesus. Except for Satan, who is reserved in an abyss cut off from the life force for a thousand years, the defeated demons are presumably cast into the lake of fire along with the Beast and False Prophet. (Matthew 25:41; 2Peter 2:17; Jude 12-13 and Revelation 19:20-20:3, 10) Further commentary on the judgment of angels and humans comes in the following chapters.

Only after the Kingdom of Darkness is removed may peace come to people of good will on earth. Now comes the promised age of the Messianic Kingdom, the establishment of Institutional Good in the place of the Institutional Evil humanity has known since Adam and eve’s expulsion from Eden. The kingdoms of this world become those of the Messiah Son of God. Instead of social institutions of governments, education and religion powered by the life force through humans dominated by Satan, God will impose his divine government over all peoples. Unlike his previously invisible reign over the children of Israel begun under Moses, God will be visible in his Son and the resurrected saints who rule under him over nations of mortal people for one thousand years.

The word which Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
Now it will come about that
In the last days
The mountain of the house of the LORD
Will be established as the chief of the mountains,
And will be raised above the hills;
And all the nations will stream to it.
And many peoples will come and say,
"Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD,
To the house of the God of Jacob;
That He may teach us concerning His ways
And that we may walk in His paths."
For the law will go forth from Zion
And the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
And He will judge between the nations,
And will render decisions for many peoples;
And they will hammer their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks
Nation will not lift up sword against nation,
And never again will they learn war. (Isaiah 2:1-4)

The people who walk in darkness
Will see a great light;
Those who live in a dark land,
The light will shine on them.
3You shall multiply the nation,
You shall increase their gladness;
They will be glad in Your presence
As with the gladness of harvest,
As men rejoice when they divide the spoil.
4For You shall break the yoke of their burden and the staff on their shoulders,
The rod of their oppressor, as at the battle of Midian.
5For every boot of the booted warrior in the battle tumult,
And cloak rolled in blood, will be for burning, fuel for the fire.
6For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us;
And the government will rest on His shoulders;
And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.
7There will be no end to the increase of His government or of peace,
On the throne of David and over his kingdom,
To establish it and to uphold it with justice and righteousness
From then on and forevermore
The zeal of the LORD of hosts will accomplish this. (Isaiah 9:2-7)

Then a shoot will spring from the stem of Jesse,
And a branch from his roots will bear fruit.
The Spirit of the LORD will rest on Him,
The spirit of wisdom and understanding,
The spirit of counsel and strength,
The spirit of knowledge and the fear of the LORD.
And He will delight in the fear of the LORD,
And He will not judge by what His eyes see,
Nor make a decision by what His ears hear;
But with righteousness He will judge the poor,
And decide with fairness for the afflicted of the earth;
And He will strike the earth with the rod of His mouth,
And with the breath of His lips He will slay the wicked.
Also righteousness will be the belt about His loins,
And faithfulness the belt about His waist.
And the wolf will dwell with the lamb,
And the leopard will lie down with the young goat,
And the calf and the young lion and the fatling together;
And a little boy will lead them.
Also the cow and the bear will graze,
Their young will lie down together,
And the lion will eat straw like the ox.
The nursing child will play by the hole of the cobra,
And the weaned child will put his hand on the viper's den.
They will not hurt or destroy in all My holy mountain,
For the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD
As the waters cover the sea.
Then in that day
The nations will resort to the root of Jesse,
Who will stand as a signal for the peoples;
And His resting place will be glorious. (Isaiah 11:1-10)

Blessed and holy is the one who has a part in the first resurrection; over these the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with Him for a thousand years. (Revelation 20:6)

During the millennial age, social institutional pressures to do wrong will be removed. The economy will be structured to function fairly, and true judgment according to just law will resolve any disputes. All institutional organizations of war will cease with the end of warfare. Human administrations or local and regional governments will operate under the supervision of incorruptible members of God’s spiritual kingdom. Human beings everywhere will have no social or educational excuses for sins and deeds less than good. While the natural life force continues to power mortal lives, access to God’s Holy Spirit unimpeded because of the end to religious confusion.

But evil will still exist. With the removal of Institutional Evil, the focus of God’s plan to eliminate evil shifts towards the other two classes of evil: Psychobiological and Intentional. Fleshly weaknesses will still require discipline. Spiritual power source still needs to shift from the intrinsically structured, good and evil Life Force to Holy Spirit if a person desires to enter eternity and encounter and participate in the good only ultimate reality of pure love and righteousness. And yes, there will still be some who will freely choose some measure of deviance from the only way to live forever in creative peace, joy and uniquely expressed love, which may range from the most subtle to the most egregious forms of evil.

The change will be the elimination of coercion, of life circumstances that encourage, inspire or promote doing or thinking the wrong thing. People will not experience environmental conditions that almost demand or drive one to take from another, violently if necessary, in order to survive physically. Thus, moral decisions and ethical actions will be more freely made once institutional evil has been removed than we experience today.

In fact, they will be made in open opposition to social institutions designed by God to encourage lifeways that are essentially good. In other words, external conformity to good behavior will be socially encouraged and supported. Religious confusion, social pressures to conform to immoral or greedy policies and governmental oppression will cease with the termination of its perpetrators - the present Kingdom of Darkness with its human agents and enablers.

Problems in Choosing Good

The good balance and structural problems of human goodness due to the nature of the life force.

Harmonic Principles of Spiritual Mediation

I have never lost the initial wonder I had as a child when I first saw, heard and felt harmonics demonstrated with two tuning forks. The teacher held identical tuning forks, one in each hand. When she hit one of them against the desk, both vibrated and gave off sound. If she stopped, the tuning fork she had initially struck, the second one continued to hum until all of its power had dissipated. Much can be learned about spiritual mediation and the transfer of spiritual energy from the study of musical harmonics. I can only begin to develop the harmonic principles important to the search for spirituality as revealed by this mathematically based science, which is also used in optics as well as sound.

Harmonic principles dramatically demonstrate the vital importance of each role played in the exercise of spirituality, including the identity of the mediator, the nature of the medium employed as well as the nature and conscious modifications made by the player-participant. Again, I find a review of definitions helpful in understanding the concepts being described:

har·mon·ic

1. Use as an adjective
   1. Of or relating to harmony.
   2. Pleasing to the ear: harmonic orchestral effects
   3. Characterized by harmony: a harmonic liturgical chant.
   4. Of or relating to harmonics.
   5. Integrated in nature
2. Use as a noun
1. Any of a series of musical tones whose frequencies are integral multiples of the frequency of a fundamental tone.
2. A tone produced on a stringed instrument by lightly touching an open or stopped vibrating string at a given fraction of its length so that both segments vibrate. Also called overtone, partial, partial tone.
3. harmonics (used with a sing. verb) The theory or study of the physical properties and characteristics of musical sound.
4. Physics: A wave whose frequency is a whole-number multiple of that of another.

resonance

Oscillation induced in a physical system when it is affected by another system that is itself oscillating at the right frequency. For example, a swing will swing to greater heights if each consecutive push on it is timed to be in rhythm with the initial swing. Radios are tuned to pick up one radio frequency rather than another using a resonant circuit that resonates strongly with the incoming signal at only a narrow band of frequencies. The soundboards of musical instruments, contrastingly, are designed to resonate with a large range of frequencies produced by the instrument.

Specialized scientists devote whole careers to subdisciplines of harmonics. It is a vast area of study that applies not only to sound but to the whole electromagnetic spectrum. The Internet Age would be impossible without it because harmonics gives us the rules to use in optical transmission of data and all forms of telecommunication from voice to multimedia. Its recorded study goes back to ancient Greece, and I do not think that Pythagoras was the first one to make discoveries about it, but Pythagorean Tuning refers to low whole integer (number) ratios. The phenomena of multiphonics and overtones provide specific insights into the complex influences of spiritual forces.

Resonance is the particular quality demonstrated by those tuning forks that so fascinated me as a child. It refers to the situation where a system’s natural frequency attunes it to absorb energy oscillating at that system’s frequency or a multiple of it. Nature resonates in that all life reacts to instinctive or learned patterns of sensual stimuli. Animals differentiate between calls of their own species and others, which influences their behavior.

The Fournier Series is a mathematically based set of formulaic tools used to analyze the periodic functions of acoustics and optics used in compressing, sending and processing data, such as in telecommunications. I submit that systems of electromagnetic signal or data transmission and reception find strong parallels in the operation of the life force as well as the divine spirit of light. The universe is full of omnipresent and competing electromagnetic energies vibrating in a seemingly infinite range of frequencies. Receivers discriminate against most of it by focusing on a particular channel as defined by a narrow frequency range.

Spectroscopy breaks down the digital frequency components of light energy to identify the chemical substances of stars and other samples. Interestingly, Fournier originally developed these insights working with heat conductivity. Refer back to the section, Death Defined Systemically for the obvious implications when biological life energy is equated with heat. Also of note here, the Bible and other spiritual literature often refer to angels as stars, which by analogy I understand that they are re-transmitters of spiritual power at particular sets of frequencies.

To begin the application of these concepts to our lives, think of a human being as being a stringed instrument (or other musical instrument, which would change the specifics of this analogy). The bouts (the shaped hollow soundboard and back), neck and pegbox (of a violin, viola, cello, etc.) are like our bodies. They come in different sizes and qualities of wood, varnish and other components. They may be externally modified to some extent, repaired and refurbished, but they essentially perform the function of catching the vibrations produced by bowing or plucking the strings and sounding them into the atmosphere mixed by its built-in qualities of resonance derived from the quality of its components and craftsmanship. The strings may be plucked and/or bowed being set by the fingers at variable intervals of length. How the musician plays the strings is analogous to how we psychospiritually or mentally (consciously or unconsciously, the latter through habit and simple reaction to external factors) engage life, which is to modulate the life force by our decisions and execute them through our bodies. The two put together create the music of our lives, which is broadcast as our distinct pattern, or set of frequencies, in that medium. Just as cables carry many digitized channels on one stream of electromagnetic energy, so the lives of all humanity are concurrently carried at the light speed of time elapsed to the ends of the universe.

I make the association with angels and harmonics due to a couple of Bible verses in particular. The second one of these insightful verses was quoted above about Lucifer. The first one refers to the “morning stars” and “sons of God” singing. Both references are to angels. Sons of God may be made, as in the case of angels and Adam, or born as in the case of Jesus. Context determines meaning. All languages depend on context to one degree or another. In the spectrum of languages, Hebrew is more contextual than many, including almost all western languages. The “singing” obviously refers to music.

When the morning stars sang together
And all the sons of God shouted for joy? (Job 38:7)

You were in Eden, the garden of God;
Every precious stone was your covering:
The ruby, the topaz and the diamond;
The beryl, the onyx and the jasper;
The lapis lazuli, the turquoise and the emerald;
And the gold, the workmanship of your settings and sockets,
Was in you. (Ezekiel 28:13)

Alternate translations render the last part of this second verse as:

• “the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes” (KJV);
• “your settings and your sockets and engravings” (Amplified);
• “your settings and mountings” (NIV);

So we have Lucifer covered with various precious gems and equipped with light-golden musical resonance chambers of variable setting. Obviously, music was played through the “settings and sockets,” and I deduce that spiritual light energy was played through the crystals and gems. These various crystals permitted him to select frequencies out of the main inflow of life force energy and mix them to deliver messages and other input data. As related above, since Lucifer was an angel mediator transfer device and not a source of energy, all the music and light coming from him was rebroadcast. He claimed to be the source, but he was not.

The life force itself is a digital, metaphysical analog to electromagnetic energy or light. Laws of optics give insights to how it works. Based on a number of biblical passages, light is also used as a symbol of the Spirit of the Creator God of Israel, so at least some of these principles may be extended in attempting to understand the Holy Spirit. People are spiritually attuned to a variety of transmissions stations. There are no exceptions. You cannot play no station as the receiver is always one as long as a person, or an animal, is alive. One’s tuning selection, volume and timing of listening affect our spiritual journey. These foundational scientific principles will be expounded in chapter 9 to aid the searcher in spiritual identity transformation.

Validity of Biblical Revelation

Claiming to be the divine Word of God, the Bible must reflect, reveal and be truly consistent with ultimate reality or truth. Indeed, Jesus calls it truth, and there are a multitude of references in its various books encouraging the believer to rely on it as the only dependable divine guide to that which is unseen or spiritual about life. Being the truth about ultimate reality, the Bible applies to all facets and dimensions of the universe. Its communication functions multi-dimensionally at all times and applies to humanity as a whole, to nations and to individuals. The Bible viewed in this way becomes an essential heavenly source to guiding life on earth. One does not need to accept the Bible blindly, but test its laws and promises (covenants) through applied obedience and reasoned faith.

Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth. (John 17:17)

…and that from childhood you have known the sacred writings which are able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work. (2Timothy 3:15-17)

The law of the LORD is perfect, restoring the soul; the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple. (Psalm 19:7)

O taste and see that the LORD is good; how blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him! (Psalm 34:8)

Now when Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to Abram and said to him, "I am God Almighty; walk before Me, and be blameless.

“I will establish My covenant between Me and you, and I will multiply you exceedingly." (Genesis 17:1-2)

This aspect of biblical revelation is important to keep in mind. Its teaching operates not only in the specifics of the immediate historical context but also in principle as relevant to other contexts. The Bible possesses perfect eternal consistency even as it reveals this perfection through the imperfect lives of humans as persons and as historical nations as lived within the physical limitations of material–temporal dimensions. The natural manifestations of biblical truths are but shadow images of ultimate reality; nonetheless, they are true images. This set of principles supplies vital keys to better understanding the holy books assembled as the Bible. Here is one example from the book of Hebrews where this principle from the Torah, the foundation of Jewish Scripture, is stated and applied to Yeshua/Jesus:

Now the main point in what has been said is this: we have such a high priest, who has taken His seat at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens, a minister in the sanctuary and in the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, not man.

For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices; so it is necessary that this high priest also have something to offer.

Now if He were on earth, He would not be a priest at all, since there are those who offer the gifts according to the Law; who serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things, just as Moses was warned by God when he was about to erect the tabernacle; for, "SEE," He says, "THAT YOU MAKE all things ACCORDING TO THE PATTERN WHICH WAS SHOWN YOU ON THE MOUNTAIN."

But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, by as much as He is also the mediator of a better covenant, which has been enacted on better promises.
(Hebrew 8:1-6)

The principle that the temporal realities built into the natural world reveals supernatural truths of ultimate reality is so reliable that God judges humanity with it. Even without biblical revelation, so many basic truths about God are found in nature that humans are without excuse. Ignoring them subjects us to judgment, much of which comes about as the cause and effect consequences that come about from ignoring or breaking natural laws. Metaphysical laws operate just as consistently and irrespective of person as do physical laws. Just laws of electricity guide electricians in how to work safely and effectively, so do laws of the spirit apply in effective, safe and productive mortal living. Just as violated laws of handling high voltage can lead to injury and mortal death so can violations of handling spiritual living cause pain, sadness, loss, suffering, violent strife and immortal destruction.

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them.

For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse.

For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

Professing to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of corruptible man and of birds and four-footed animals and crawling creatures.

Therefore God gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, so that their bodies would be dishonored among them. For they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. (Romans 1:18-25)

Biblical Trail of Mediators

The Bible was written by at least 40 different authors over thousands of years, yet it communicates a consistent spiritual story of God’s plan for humanity within the context of the history of the universe. Both “Old” and “New” Testaments are fully compatible on all major points. Such consistency over the space of ages, dozens of authors and two different dispensations (for lack of a better term) testifies of one author in common, one spiritual source of information. The source claims to be the Creator of heaven and earth, the angels and all humanity. He claims to have a plan for eternity, and he has revealed and developed it over at least 4,500 years.

I think it useful to consider the Bible as a collection of historically accurate stories about spiritually significant mediators between the metaphysical and physical realms of reality. The individual lives and teachings of these people provide valuable lessons that can be applied personally on how to best live a spiritually conscious and effective life. The is both the most common as well as being an effectively appropriate way to read and study the Bible, but there is a much bigger picture revealed in the lives and teachings of these mediators than is commonly perceived or appreciated.

If we get at these deeper principles of temporal purpose and eternal truths as experienced through artificial and ultimate realities, deeper understanding of life’s purpose for ourselves individually as well as for humanity as a whole becomes accessible and available for pragmatic application in solving real life problems now, which is something that genuine spiritual growth always accomplishes along the way towards growing into the eternal, co-created unique identity character of love potential each of us is born with.

The potential for increased understanding and pragmatic application in real life is what has motivated me to put the hours into this project over the decades of my life. To some extent, each person must suffer wrong, both in the perpetrating on others as well as receiving from others, in order to learn deeply what love is about. We must encounter eternal truth and incorporate it into our psyches even as we must learn to forgive ourselves and others. The processes of doing so set into motion cycles of psychospiritual creativity that identify and destroy artificial realities incongruent with ultimate reality, replacing them with new artificial (temporal and imperfect) realities that are more in harmony with the Creator. It is a journey toward ONEness that I develop in chapter 9 and focus on in my book, Mission of ONE.

Therefore I, the prisoner of the Lord, implore you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, showing tolerance for one another in love, being diligent to preserve the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

There is one body and one Spirit, just as also you were called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all who is over all and through all and in all.

But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ's gift. (Ephesians 4:1-7)

For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.

Therefore remember that formerly you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called "Uncircumcision" by the so-called "Circumcision," which is performed in the flesh by human hands--remember that you were at that time separate from Christ, excluded from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world.

But now in Christ Jesus you who formerly were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.

For He Himself is our peace, who made both groups into one and broke down the barrier of the dividing wall, by abolishing in His flesh the enmity, which is the Law of commandments contained in ordinances, so that in Himself He might make the two into one new man, thus establishing peace, and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross, by it having put to death the enmity. AND HE CAME AND PREACHED PEACE TO YOU WHO WERE FAR AWAY, AND PEACE TO THOSE WHO WERE NEAR; for through Him we both have our access in one Spirit to the Father.

So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and are of God's household, having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus Himself being the corner stone, in whom the whole building, being fitted together, is growing into a holy temple in the Lord, in whom you also are being built together into a dwelling of God in the Spirit. (Ephesians 2:10-22)

These verses outline some primary themes moving forward in our discussion. From our historical perspective late in the program, it is much easier to see what was going on at each stage along the way and why. In revealing the spiritual structure of life, the Bible concentrates on key individuals who mediated God’s Plan for Humanity to all of us. Each biblical person’s role in that revelation differs because God’s Plan has been progressively revealed and implemented through the temporal intersect between the natural and supernatural experienced as history. The moment of now is so brief that nearly all reality we perceive is either realized or anticipated history. As discussed previously, our perceptions are always distorted: the question is in what directions and how far.

Evil is subtly complex, and good is potentially unlimited, so the task of educating humanity about these essential issues of life is, as a whole, neither simple or direct. Yes, some segments of history or aspects of behavior are rather simple and direct. That is fortunate for us because the spiritual dynamic is such that if we act on what is plain, that which is more obscure enters our conscious discernment to grow understanding and wisdom in how to make even better life decisions. Therefore, biblical mediators are uniquely important. They differ in how and what they mediate to us about God’s revelation of ultimate reality and what that means for us today.

Because God is ONE, there is and has been but one relationship or covenant between God and humanity. Because the elimination of evil and creation of eternally lasting good is a process mediated through time and place, the contextual expression of that one relationship varies both chronologically and socially. This fact provides increased opportunity for mercy as well as increased ultimate effectiveness in communicating across the dimensions of reality. In the meantime, God’s existence and purpose for humanity remains weakly accepted and poorly understood among the families of humanity. The dimensional divide between metaphysical and physical structurally imposes real barriers to a mortal’s understanding of the matters of immortality.

Ultimately, this obscure ineffability works to the greater benefit of all, but in the interim we selfishly experience frustration. We would rather sit down face-to-face with the divine and work it all out to our own satisfaction. Fortunately, that does not often take place in the Bible or in life as lived today, or the outcomes would favor the Kingdom of Dark Light more than greatly populate the Kingdom of the Coming Eternally Pure Light.

Here I can only give just the briefest overview to provide broad context. A little later, I will focus on the mediators that most affect our present day search for spirituality and the objectives of their mediation.

1. Adam
2. Noah
3. Abraham
4. Moses
5. David
6. Yeshua/Jesus
7. The Apocalypse

The biblical narrative of God working through individuals of various professions and backgrounds communicates that God desires an intimate, personal relationship with each person. He does not limit himself to a mass public theatrical production such as giving the Ten Commandments. He does not want to be remote, uninvolved and inaccessible to mortals who seek him with humble attitudes. He is also holy and exclusive in his intimacy demanding sole place in the heart of the worshipper. He accepts no obstacles excuses or priorities to the most intimate relationship with each faithful believer. He may rightly set these preconditions because he has made the way possible to remove all of those obstacles by his own sacrifice and promises. He is a consuming fire that does not tolerate evil, injustice or any other exercise of oppressive power between humans, whether motivated by need, glory or greed.

The Creator God of Israel may not be appeased, yet he may be moved to compassion. He is not capricious. Through covenant promises, God provides structure to his relationships with humanity on both the metaphysical and physical levels. Throughout the ages, the availability and precise steps involved to entering into that relationship have changed, but what has never changed in the requirement for each of us to choose the ONE God over and instead of others, including – most importantly – ourselves, our own ideas, desires, preferences and biases. To partially counter the problem of deception, he has presented us with his deal in writing (the Bible) and clearly chosen his mediators (Adam, Abraham, Moses, Israel, Jesus) with remarkable demonstrations of his intervention in the affairs of humanity. He has made and fulfilled detailed prophecies concerning and performed attesting miracles through his chosen mediators.

Every person’s life presents a story of the same difference. We take different paths to come to recognizing God’s existence. The circumstances of our meeting him are particular, though we share many common circumstantial themes with others. But once we meet God, we can only approach him according to his own terms. Fortunately, he does not require a perfect, 100% commitment or understanding of all his ways in order to begin the relationship.

That part which is conformable to his covenant makes progress even though the rest of our energies are misdirected in vain expressions of our own righteousness, creative intelligence or willful endeavors – no matter how well intentioned – undertaken contrary to his purpose for our lives and place in his kingdom. A mortal chooses the immortal holy ONE, but the Creator King chooses where to place us in his kingdom family, organization body, where multitudinous complementary roles are necessary and mandatory.

Adam: Mediator of the Life Force

Since Adam was created by God to be the first human, he is the beginning of all mediation as well as the purpose of God for sustaining a material universe. In almost all ways, his role of mediator is shared with Eve because she was formed from his side to complete him. Humanity is incomplete with only one gender or sex because the purpose of life is not solely individually focused. As a mortal, Adam without Eve is dead, and God’s purpose for a material creation is thwarted. The same may be said for Eve, but the perspective is different.

Adam is the Mediator of the Life Force. He was the first to breathe it, and alone he did not choose any act out of harmony with God, which is one definition of evil. Though Eve was the first to choose the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, it was Adam’s acquiescent confirmation and participation in her choice that determined the abiding good and evil nature of all humanity. Eve is the Mediatrix of the Body. Without her no children would be born, and God’s purpose of sharing his divinely perfect love with other unique individuals is thwarted. From Adam each generation inherits an imperfect and incomplete spiritual nature expressed in the exercise of our free will power of decision. Without Eve none of us would be here.

Adam opened the door for every person to create a falsely unique spiritual identity through the Life Force. Each person has the free will power to define love, justice and righteousness for him or herself. Consequently, most people live out belief sets in lives of their own composition of definitions when it comes to what is good and what is evil. Humanity is unified spiritually in that we naturally have access to one spiritual power – the Life Force. For this limitation, we have Adam to thank. Apart from any other spiritual mediation, it is the only spiritual power source people encounter, and it is incapable of pure goodness or of a full spectrum expression of the Creator’s love. Jesus is called the Second Adam because he mediates access to another spiritual power source, the ONE Holy Spirit of God, who does not change, being the righteous goodness of divinely perfect love that lasts for eternity.

Spirit verses – image vs likeness

Eve: Mediatrix of the Body

As Adam is the source of the life force spirit, so Eve is the source of the living body, which is why the Bible is so silent about her and women’s spiritual roles in general. Women inherently possess equal spiritual potential for eternal life as a born son of God, but this gender’s most important structural purpose in creation is to grow the body of believers through childbirth and the rearing of those born. Without women variety in life would not exist. Besides being a dead end, it would be boring and selfish. Eve foreshadows both Israel and the Church as the Bride of the Son, the Body of Believers. With the introduction of an immortal soul powered and willingly conformed to the ONE Holy Spirit, uniqueness must lie in the creative forms and expressions of the immortal believers’ metaphysical bodies. Indeed, Paul makes this point in 1Corinthians 15, which I discuss in detail later.

One flesh.

Israel as Mediator to the Nations

When the Bible discusses Israel, it is not referring to the modern state of Israel, except where the rise of the Jewish (Zionist) state as the choice and political will of the Jewish people is a fulfillment of Bible prophecy. Many nations within the family of humanity dominate a particular nation state that came into existence as a part of their political history. In this context the Zionist state is not chosen but a part of the temporal, global political reality, which is artificial in the sense that it is man-made.

The main reason God chose the Israelites to be his people was to concretely demonstrate that he desired to include all of humanity in his kingdom family despite our innumerable weaknesses, sins and atrocities. He does not limit the opportunity to an intimate spiritual relationship with him to just a few special favorite priests or other spiritual professionals. The people of Israel as a nation have mediated God’s desire for a massive, cohesive network of individual relationships with himself as the ideal and spiritually defined Kingdom of God. The long, collective history of the Israelites as the chosen people is a witness to this aspect of God’s purpose for humanity. This applies both to that part of it recorded in the Bible and that which is not, since the continued existence people themselves is witness to the identity and powerful intervention of the Creator God of Israel in the affairs of nations, persons and angels.

“GOD IS REAL” makes a remarkable homonymic shorthand description of why the nation of Israel was chosen to be functionally important to every nation as a mediator that was used in spite of her citizen members’ individual sins and own collective rebellion. Except for God’s choosing - because he had to choose and work through some family of humanity - Israel as a nation, or her people as individual persons, are not otherwise more righteous or more spiritual than any other nation-family of humanity.

The Creation and Reconciliation of the Universe

God is pure light without darkness, life, the standard of love, truth and justice, eternal Holy Spirit. (John 4:24; 1John 4:7-8) God created the universe out of physical nothing. (Hebrews 11:3) He spoke, and it was so. (Genesis 1; Hebrews 1) Through the Word spoken, Jesus was present, and so Paul writes that the universe was created through and for Jesus. Jesus/Yeshua is the central, focal Mediator of all that is, has been and will be. Jesus revealed the invisible Father God to humanity, and perhaps to the angels, too. Throughout all history, one of the most often noted and unusual facts about the God of Israel was his invisibility. No image of God was permitted. The only image of God ever on earth was the ONE Mediator between God and humanity, Jesus.

For there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. (1Timothy 2:5)

What was from the beginning, what we have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, what we have looked at and touched with our hands, concerning the Word of Life. And the life was manifested, and we have seen and testify and proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and was manifested to us. What we have seen and heard we proclaim to you also, so that you too may have fellowship with us; and indeed our fellowship is with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ.

These things we write, so that our joy may be made complete. This is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you, that God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness at all. (1John 1:1-5)

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men. The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. (John 1:1-5)

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities--all things have been created through Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.

He is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will come to have first place in everything. For it was the Father's good pleasure for all the fullness to dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace through the blood of His cross; through Him, I say, whether things on earth or things in heaven. (Colossians 1:15-20)

Jesus/Yeshua plays a pivotal role in God’s creation. Besides reconciliation of humanity to God, his blood on the cross also reconciles “things in heaven.” Jesus is the ultimate and only Mediator of the divine Holy Spirit. Later in this chapter, I will show the connection between Jesus’ shed blood and the Holy Spirit poured out upon those who repent in order to facilitate their immortal and sinless, identity transformation. The Bible has a great deal to say on this topic. Chapter 9 discusses the key Bible verses on how creative identity transformation takes place, its changed nature and why it is important.

But what kind of reconciliation is needed in heaven? The answer to this question also answers why a material universe of time and space even exists. The Bible reveals more details about the restoration of the universe, referred to as the New Heavens and New Earth, in the final two chapters of Revelation. The fact that a restoration is needed reveals that something bad happened earlier. The structural differences of the New Heaven and New Earth from the universe we live in today may be rationally deducted using the basic premises of digital spirituality.

Then he showed me a river of the water of life, clear as crystal, coming from the throne of God and of the Lamb, in the middle of its street. On either side of the river was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. There will no longer be any curse; and the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and His bond-servants will serve Him; they will see His face, and His name will be on their foreheads.

And there will no longer be any night; and they will not have need of the light of a lamp nor the light of the sun, because the Lord God will illumine them; and they will reign forever and ever. (Revelation 22:1-5)

Then the LORD God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being. The LORD God planted a garden toward the east, in Eden; and there He placed the man whom He had formed.

Out of the ground the LORD God caused to grow every tree that is pleasing to the sight and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

Now a river flowed out of Eden to water the garden; and from there it divided and became four rivers. (Genesis 2:7-10)

Notice the recurring themes of trees, rivers and garden. Compare and contrast that which is the same and that which is different. The tree of life and the water of life refer to the Holy Spirit of Life Eternal. The breath of mortal life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil refer to the natural life force of the material universe. In the New Heavens and New Earth, the Bible only mentions the tree of life.

The only spiritual force present in the perfect goodness of New Heavens and New Earth is the pure light of the Holy Spirit. It is out of that spiritual resource that they will be created. The tree of the knowledge of good and evil was present in the Garden of Eden due to Lucifer’s rebellion. It did not exist before then and will not exist after Satan is destroyed in the lake of fire that does not go out until it has consumed the entire material universe of time and space. (Revelation 20:10, 14-15)

But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up.

Since all these things are to be destroyed in this way, what sort of people ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be destroyed by burning, and the elements will melt with intense heat!

But according to His promise we are looking for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells. (2Peter 3:10-13)

So I deduce that the created material universe’s parameters of being subject to time (mortality) and suffering the existence of both good and evil must have come about in conjunction with a twisting distortion of the pure truth, power and purposes of God. Somehow darkness was introduced into the pure light permanently defiling it. God permits the material universe, which has been separated from him, to exist in fulfillment of his great plan for humanity. Through Jesus, the material creation will be restored and reconciled to God through its own physical process of fiery death and transformation. The universe must die and be reborn just as person must. People have the opportunity to die in faith, which includes repentance and obedience as well as acceptance of God’s grace through Jesus without doubt. Just as Jesus and the saints are resurrected in Holy Spirit power alone, bearing the name of the Father, so the New Heavens and New Earth will be constructed out of the Holy Spirit’s pure light power.

In the New Heavens and New Earth, perpetual healing (eternal life), absence of curses and the immediate, perceivable presence of God are standard, everyday, normal occurrences. Everything is obvious and orderly, not confused. Evil is absent. Choice is still free, but guaranteed righteous in love perfected. The Saints are named with the Name of God, which is his very nature and Spirit.

This was in accordance with the eternal purpose which He carried out in Christ Jesus our Lord, in whom we have boldness and confident access through faith in Him. Therefore I ask you not to lose heart at my tribulations on your behalf, for they are your glory.

For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God. (Ephesians 3:11-19)

Both the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil were present in the Garden. Adam had to make a choice between the two for himself, Eve and their children. This power of choice and its consequences made Adam the most significant Bible mediator after Jesus. Adam’s choice of Eve’s deceived choice, subjected all of humanity to death because every person is born indwelled with the breath of life, the dark light spirit of good and evil. Jesus is called the Second Adam because he provides a way through faith of choosing the tree of life, the Holy Spirit of God through faith in Messiah, instead of remaining captive to the mortal sorrows of the natural life force, which is irreparably darkened so that any good a person can think, say or do cannot be totally separated or detached from evil. Good men die just as dead as bad men. Why?

Mediator Between Time and Eternity

For this reason also, since the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; strengthened with all power, according to His glorious might, for the attaining of all steadfastness and patience; joyously giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in Light.

For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities--all things have been created through Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.

He is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will come to have first place in everything. For it was the Father's good pleasure for all the fullness to dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace through the blood of His cross; through Him, I say, whether things on earth or things in heaven.

And although you were formerly alienated and hostile in mind, engaged in evil deeds, yet He has now reconciled you in His fleshly body through death, in order to present you before Him holy and blameless and beyond reproach…(Colossians 1:9-22)

Therefore, since the children share in flesh and blood, He Himself likewise also partook of the same, that through death He might render powerless him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, and might free those who through fear of death were subject to slavery all their lives.

For assuredly He does not give help to angels, but He gives help to the descendant of Abraham. (Hebrews 2:14-16)

For there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. (1Timothy 2:5)

To humans and not angels. Death and the model. Liberation from mortality comes only from substitution of spirits. The nature of right spiritual conformity. Restoration of Eden’s choice, Second Adam.

Israel’s Mediator to the Nations

Yeshua fulfills job assigned in Ex 19 and prepares a people for millennium.

King of kings. Ultimate test of self-deception when Devil is not around.

Mediator of the Holy Spirit

Faith means identify with the Voluntary Death Releases an eternal life giving spirit. Two gods: two men (old 7 new). Choose God and conform image to Him by submitting body.

Parents as Mediators of Life

We don’t formally think of our parents as spiritual mediators, but they are the most important ones in our lives. Life begins in the mother’s womb, and that beginning is a spiritual event by its intrinsic nature of being life. There a body is created genetically and prepared to receive the breath of life at birth. In the interim, the fetus shares the mother’s life force and psychobiological health. Over the last decades, the medical profession has caught up a bit with this fact and begun to emphasize a mother’s health and habits during pregnancy impact the lifelong development of the new person formed within her. The Digital Spirituality model projects that further research on these earliest stages of life will reveal even more interconnections and links between what goes on in the life of a pregnant mother and the lifelong characteristics of the offspring born. All life is sacred and everything pertaining to it because without it we have the nothingness of death.

At birth’s first breath, the life force directly animates the baby directly rather than being mediated through the mother’s body. The parents’ roles change. From birth, parents mediate the issues of the life force through the engagement and interpretation of reality for the child. The responsibility is broad in application ranging from recognizing and telling truth to walking in the woods to gather edible berries. Parents intentionally and unintentionally transfer their own concepts of reality to their children as well as mediating the influence of their culture/society on them. The parents’ biases, both shared and conflicted, are infused into the child’s or children’s psyche. The parents’ individual and shared artificial realities are absorbed by the youngest children without resistance or question of their validity. As a child matures, he or she increasingly forms his or her own artificial reality, which may be closer or more distant from the truth of ultimate reality.

Parents' biggest spiritual challenges as mediators comes in two areas:

1. Recognizing what their own version of reality looks like with most of its values, habits and assumptions is perhaps the most difficult. None of us can be sufficiently objective about ourselves alone, which is a primary reason why the creation’s design provides two parents. Life includes the mundane as well as the profound. Furthermore, no person is an island. We live within subcultural islands of cultural continents constantly shifting position and form within the artificial reality of civilization, which has rapidly become globalized at depths of social and spiritual impact not fully recognized or understood.
2. Managing the outsourcing of our mediation responsibilities is the second challenge. From antiquity, governments and religious organizations have recognized the importance of spending time with our children to conform their attitudes, habits and biases to the purposes of the social institution involved. The rapid growth and infiltration of electronic media into everyday life has made it even easier for parents to outsource their children’s minds and hearts to others in an indirect manner. Many of today’s social problems derived from parental neglect of their mediating responsibilities in this area: parental attitudes and habits have not kept up with the changes in technology’s impact on our psyches. Neither have they kept up with their governments’ or churches’ agendas in education of youth. In their pursuit of materialistic goals, parents have neglected their spiritual responsibilities as mediators of reality by too easily outsourcing their children to youth professionals or to the narrow-dimensional cult of peers.

Obviously, if we do not invest ourselves in our own search or spirituality, we will fail in our mediating roles as parents to our children, no matter how much we love them. Our own artificial realities greatly impact those of our children, and both children and parents are mostly overwhelmed by the fast-paced, deeply pervasive changes taking place in society. The chaos of global materialism has sucked us into the maw of its whirling pool of economic, political, social and spiritual currents. The almost universally passive and semi-conscious acceptance of Globalism’s impersonally all-inclusive regimen evidences populations that are spiritually asleep.

Children do not start out that way. They are taught by us to become as us. Most adults fall psychospiritually asleep one small step at a time. We surrender responsibility for one small area of life at a time as taught by psychological, social and physical experience. Spiritual sleep comes about from being traumatized by survival driven fears or from becoming addicted to the dreams of materialism’s artificial phantasms of life’s essence and purpose. There is a substitution of perceived immediate necessity or sensual gratification for transcendent purpose and well-being. Because we do not understand the history of humanity or the structure of life in the universe, we do not have the proper bearings to escape the maelstrom of temporal materialism, nor do we satisfactorily execute our responsibility to mediate reality and spirituality to our children. Indeed, each person must accept and exercise personal responsibility for one’s life regardless of a parent’s absence, perverted presence or loving job well done. As mediators, parents possess limits to their responsibilities for their children, which naturally should change over time as each child grows within the context of biological health.

Besides being too ready to accept the conveniences of outsourcing the mediation of their children’s reality, parents also need to consciously address the facts that what a society, government or church envisions for their children may not be what is best for them within the context of ultimate reality or God’s purpose for human life. Part of this process is the recognition that all organizations effect a disconnect between stated objectives and methods of childcare or education. In other words, a parent can screen for a match between their own values and objectives and those of an organization or youth professional and still neglect the outcome reality of their programs.

A church may have a youth program ostensibly purposed to teach spiritual and social values and behavior and fail at those objectives. Public education has failed to deliver improved learning despite repeatedly increased funding and the implementation of ever-improved teaching methods and tools. Charismatic youth pastors or teachers may not mediate your children’s engagement of reality and life to positive spiritual, or even material, outcome. Parents can never surrender their mediating responsibilities to another just as they should share them. No one can be everything to another person. A parent or set of parents cannot be so for any child or children, but neither can they largely surrender the necessary bothersome burden of parenting to another. We can only do so in reserved part, within a consciously considered context of increasing the chances for a child’s growth in positive directions.

Every program must be judged by its fruits. This cannot be a mere exercise in objective measurements of results because the human dimension is not purely objective. Furthermore, one needs to consider the individual needs and abilities of each child. When it comes to children, everything is an experiment, and risk will never be completely eliminated. Children must take responsibility for what they learn and for their moral decisions. Parents need to sort through the fog of real reasons, convenient excuses, fears of inadequacy and myths of social or spiritual value to better mediate their children’s engagement of the real world, minimization of artificial realities, experience of life and a general orientation to their own searches for spirituality and unique identity creation as vitally conscious and happily engaged persons of spiritual balance.

Honest human relationships are essential catalysts in the search for spiritual balance. The global culture favors a materialist perspective. It obsesses on death with irrational fascination and on partial death with addicted frenzy. “Not so!” you might say. “Society has never been more alive, and global urbanism is where the action is most excitingly dynamic.” Comments and thoughts along these lines are passionately held, for strong is the delusion of life out of balance. Decisions towards death usually do not bring immediate death, rather desperate people are driven to biochemical and mental addiction to life lived to the excess. A candle burned at both ends burns out in less than half the time it lasts when burned at one end only. Excessively compressing life into the present moment supercharges a pursued “high” with concentrated good feelings and an exciting experience of raw psychospiritual and/or biophysical power. Life in the fast lane reaches its end too soon and permits fewer conscious choices during the explosive rush into the box canyon wall or over the towering cliff.

Youth is more susceptible to the bright lights of darkness’s decoy. If parents have invested their time, thought and energy in building deep relationships with their children, then they are better able to mediate the balance of life. From the practical angle of it all, this means reducing the amount of parental outsourcing and being very picky when doing so. It does not mean overprotection or over control. It does mean exposure of children to both sides of an issue or multiple perspectives of psychospiritual reality from a known parental context that is stable and understood by the children. It does not mean that parents must have all of the answers. It also means, for example, that parents should only participate in spiritual contexts that include and engage the whole family. Of course, this generalization does not apply to every activity, exercise, discussion group or worship service. Some engagement may certainly be peer focused, but that cannot how most of the time is spent or familial relationships are sacrificed. The sacrifice of deep and honest parent-child relationships ruins the chances for successful spiritual mediation at almost any level because the child only senses hypocrisy.

Remember, natural spirituality reveals the yin-yang, dark-light, female-male balance of the life force. Movement to yin-yin or yang-yang represents a series of decisions towards death, even though the excitement of those decisions delivers a psycho-sensual delusion of life. A choice of excess creates automatic imbalance. Choosing the present rush creates a future void, and both extremes are dangerous. They present addiction or depression challenges that most cannot control or manage – even with help.

Matching extremes of life produce no lasting fruit, and opposing extremes a consuming void. Parents unwilling to move towards the balance point (from where their lives are currently positioned in the web of the dark-light charged force field of life) neutralize their mediating capacity and endanger their children and anyone else bound to them socially. Over thousands of years, human cultures have moderated the parent’s roles as mediators of life through the socially defined institution of marriage, which purpose was to protect and nourish the relationship between the parents, the husband(s) and the wife/wives. Marriage is the original social contract upon which all others were built.

Spiritual Professionals

Spiritual professions range in public stature and area of spiritual specialty from the Catholic Pope in Rome to the part-time Tarot card reader at a community fair. Each mediates spiritual power, care and/or teaching in some form. Some unabashedly make a business of it, while for others it is a “calling.” Some give their services away but graciously accept tokens of appreciation, while others post a fee schedule. Some use inanimate objects as tools or aids in the delivery of treatment or services, others do not. Some represent long-established cultural traditions or religious movements, while others innovate new applications of old principles of spiritual mediation.

Almost all of them touch aspects of natural spirituality to some degree. Some engage, contact or appeal to metaphysical spirit beings for assistance. The borders between all of these professional approaches to spirituality are very blurred. The authenticity of spiritual contact is rightly debated and tested because many hucksters are in the promotion and delivery of spiritual services for the money and/or status alone. Many thousands, if not millions, are capable of purposed contact with spirit beings, and most of the resulting metaphysical entanglements possess latent potential for real harm.

Their job is to bring those who come to them into harmony with the spiritual powers they work with. In accordance with the brief discussion on spiritual harmonics above, spiritual professionals profess knowledge of and skill in particular techniques or approaches to life that are supposed to help the seeker become more spiritually attuned to the forces, information or other forms of help available. Typically, people search out spiritual professionals when they are facing critical problems that they are forced to deal with but feel incapable of doing so on their own. Family, friends or other social options may not be seen as appropriate or were tried and failed. It could be a health problem, a family issue or dealing with internal doubts and fears. Regardless, the petitioner seeking professional spiritual help is usually vulnerable and/or desperate to one degree or another.

When the broad scope of natural spirituality is considered, professionals you might not at first consider spiritual mediators emerge as being so indeed. Natural spirituality transcends all of life and how it is lived from the individual’s inward thoughts to Globalism’s uncontrolled takeover of the planet, which means that the world is filled with millions of professional people mediating the delivery of spiritual benefits in the form of essential, life giving products and services. Wherever a business or charitable organization touches life, its health, repair and sustenance, then it at least touches the spectrum of natural spirituality. This is too broad an application of mediation for the scope of this book, but I wished to acknowledge it here because in the end we all have the opportunity to mediate spirituality to others if we choose to do so. The fact that so many are already engaged in this important undertaking without consciously thinking about it as such just makes this book’s usefulness the more relevant.

A couple of obvious observations are warranted here. First, the very plenitude of spiritual professions complexes the search for spirituality. The world of professional spiritual mediators is chaos. With some validity, I could be accused of adding another option to the chaos! The fact that perhaps the majority are not legitimate, and the fact that perhaps most of the legitimate mediators work within the medium of the life force, mean that the mathematical chances of transcending the present material realm are fairly slim. Thankfully, the truth that God cares increases one’s chance of success. The revelation that the most powerful mediators of the life force work for the Dark Lord increases our awareness of the potential risks.

My second observation is that world has not become a better place for its abundance in spiritual mediators. That should tell us something important: it confirms that the bulk of the spiritual power being mediated is the null life force. No other conclusion can explain why the world is so full of both spiritual mediators and poverty, pain and oppression. Satan is the god of this world, and his plan is to destroy it and everything in it. Those who life their lives to that end are his agents regardless of what label they put on themselves, and I include Christian, Jewish and Moslem.

The search for transcendent mediation requires a god who intervenes in the affairs of men historically and prophetically and a holy book that records the same. To escape the bounds of temporality, we must find a mediator that can connect us with eternity. Such a mediator would know the past and the future, for that is the nature of eternity. Given the structure of time dependant on light speed and a universe that can contain millions of years of light speed, eternity is the only perspective that can give you the overview of history and prophecy – the full timeline.

This capability contrasts with the potential for short-term prophecies postulated for the life force or the historical testimony of demons who were witnesses of the past, retaining explicit details of historic persons and events. Finally, the Inhabitor of eternity must also be omnipotent because only omnipotence could transcend all 11 dimensions. An omnipotent God could also make sure that His prophecies are fulfilled. These factors among others led me to the God of Israel and the Bible.
