THE APOTHEOSIS OF WASHINGTON

The Dome Ceiling of the U.S. Capitol Rotunda

SPIRIT MOVED upon the face of the waters and said: “You’re not finished yet!” So I’m back from a brief sabbatical to address current and traumatic events occurring in Washington D.C., in the Middle East, and in Europe. I will do so within a Biblical context. These are my thoughts only as I look deeply into the energetic underpinnings of surface world phenomena, led and guided by the Spirit of Truth.

THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE WICKED

In his epistle to the Ephesians, Paul wrote: For we wrestle not with flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. (Eph 6:12)

In days of yore, kings, pharaohs and rulers of people were often regarded as divine incarnations. President George Washington, for example, as the image above portrays, was regarded a god. However, I think Paul is referring here to disincarnate entities that were given power over humans by a disempowered populace, entities with whom they imagined they were constantly struggling. The “good vs evil” theme has ancient roots.

I ask why wrestle at all . . . with anything? Wickedness and corruption will go the way of wickedness and corruption—and take their wicked and corrupt worlds with them into oblivion. That world, as the poet Rumi says, is too large to talk about. One may well find peace and solace laying down in Rumi’s grass where there’s no right-doing or wrong-doing.

There’s only righteousness and wickedness in man’s world. To the Lord, whose world this rightly is, both are useful to His purpose and plan of salvation and restoration.

Corruption will destroy the corrupt and wickedness will destroy the wicked . . . unless there is repentance. The righteous shall prevail and bring Heaven’s order and harmony to Earth. Who are the righteous and the wicked?

POWER GIVEN TO THE BEAST

I am drawn to a chapter in the Book of Revelation in which John details an event he saw when he was “in the spirit on the Lord’s day.” Here’s a passage from the chapter:

  “Then I stood on the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast rising up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his horns ten crowns, and on his heads a blasphemous name.  Now the beast which I saw was like a leopard, his feet were like the feet of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority.  And I saw one of his heads as if it had been mortally wounded, and his deadly wound was healed. And all the world marveled and followed the beast.  So they worshiped the dragon who gave authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?”

THE DRAGON

What or who do you imagine this dragon is that gives power, throne and great authority to the beast? I look at situations in the world, such as in the Middle East, Europe, and America, and I ask “Who elected Hamas, a military arm of Hezbollah, to govern in Gaza? The Palestinian people. Who gave Benjamin Netanyahu power and throne in Israel to destroy Gaza and commit genocide against the Palestinians. The people of Israel. Who put Vladimir Putin on the throne of governance in Russia and gave his power to invade and destroy the Ukrainians’ homes and cities? The people of Russia. Here at home, who is it that elected Donald Trump to the Presidency and gave him power and a throne from which to dictate policy and procedure . . . and authority to give power to Elon Musk, a non-elected agent, to wreak havoc dismantling governmental agencies of our Democracy in the name of slashing spending by reducing the size of government? We the people!

That word “size” refers to people, employees of the Federal Government, for instance, who now tremble in their shoes and at their desks in fear of this bestial and heartless hammer of Trump. (Maryanne Williamson has interviewed a couple of them and posted their stories on her website under the heading “SCAPEGOAT OF THE HOUR — how civil servants have experienced the coup.”)

I am reminded of a parable my mentor used to use in his seminars about a worker in New York City who brought “cream-a-cheese” sandwiches to work every day in his lunch pail, and every day at lunch time he would sit, open his lunch pail, take out his sandwich and exclaim: “Cream-a-cheese sandwich! I hate-a cream-a-cheese sandwiches!” One of his fellow workers, tired of his complaining every day, finally said to him: “Why don’t-a you have-a yo wife make-a you a different sandwich?” To which he replied: “I’m-a not-a married. I make-a them myself.” We give power and throne to our leaders and then complain about how they govern — often with good cause.

What’s going on in Washington is obviously nothing less than a coup, a power-and-money grab. And not just in Washington. Greed and corruption are globally embodied by human beings and governments. People the world over have become the dragon-incarnate that gives power, throne, and great authority to the beast. Revelation’s beast is non other than the human ego . . . that still rebels against the Creator and covets His Throne in Heaven to rule one earth. Yes, I equate the human ego with the devil and Satan, that old serpent embodied by the human spinal cord and brain, Satan’s workshop of deception.

Divine Creator Beings — you and I — have incarnated to bring an end to this covetousness and contention between God and the human ego, and restore dignity and honor to the living, breathing temple of the Living God.

TIME IS NO MORE

John of Revelation sets the stage for the dissolution of the corrupt world of the wicked and the restoration of the Whole Holy World to this sacred planet, the Elohim’s Home among the stars:

He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still. And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according to his work shall be. (Rev 22:11-13)

A TIME FOR PEACE

I spent a hour one recent Sunday morning reading my friend Will Wilkinson’s post “A Time For Peace” on his blog, Activation2041. It’s all about the “deep state” — principalities, powers, rulers of the darkness of the mind-made world, and spiritual wickedness in high places within the Roman Catholic Church. Not very pretty. The whole world has been deceived—and continues to be deceived. Here’s a link should you feel up to reading his post . . . and perhaps being awakened and enlightened out of deception. I encourage you to take the time to do so.

“DEEP CHURCH”

Having been an aspirant to the Roman Catholic Priesthood in my youth, I was particularly drawn to the article about Archbishop Vigano—who, interestingly enough, was excommunicated last July for expressing his views boldly and publicly. For those who don’t know what excommunication is, it means “You’re out!” Literally! You are no longer allowed to share communion with the faithful. Read especially the snippets from his “astonishing letter” to American Catholics on Will’s post. (Go here for the entire letter.) Here’s a brief statement of the Archbishop’s disclosure of spiritual wickedness in high places within the clergy of the Catholic Church:

“However, there is also what I myself have called the deep church, which is similarly composed of exponents of the Catholic Hierarchy, who after decades of progressive infiltration and occupation have come to take full control of the Catholic Church.”

“Nothing happens unless and until money says it happens,” to borrow a saying my accountant used to repeat often. Money is his realm of stewardship, so he knows firsthand that of which he speaks. Money is the god of modern civilization . . . and the worship of money is leading to its downfall.

SANCTIFICATION OF OUR MONEY

It has been said that money is the root of all evil. It is more accurate to say that love of money is the root of all evil. I will not get into a discussion on the purpose of money, as it has been thoroughly discussed and elucidated elsewhere by others. I will talk about the sanctification of our money.

Money has been referred to as “filthy lucre.” But it isn’t money that’s filthy. It’s rather the filthy hands that reach out to grab it, along with the temporal power it affords.

In order for our money to become sanctified it has to be handled by clean hands and a pure heart. In order for hands to be sanctified, they have to be governed by a sanctified heart. In order for the heart to be sanctified, it has to be purified in the fire of perfect love. Perfect love is God’s love. God’s love for us and for creation is unconditional and cannot be bought or sold but only radiantly given and expressed. It is given freely or else it is conditional and imperfect.

It is said in sacred scripture (Matt 6:24) that one cannot serve two masters. Either one will love the one and hate the other, or be devoted to the one and despise the other. The passage goes on to say “One cannot serve both God and mammon.”

Mammon, in medieval times, was equated with wealth regarded as an evil influence or false object of worship and devotion. It was taken by medieval writers as the name of the devil of covetousness, and revived in this sense by Milton: “…others have forsaken Mammon in search of something on a more spiritual plane.”(Wikipedia)

The Psalmist sang an uplifting song, full of comfort, assurance and promise:

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust .  Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.  He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust : his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;  Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.  A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.  Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.  

Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.  Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high , because he hath known my name. He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.  With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation. (Ps 91)

What a powerful promise! I will close with this reminder from Revelation:

And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according to his work shall be. (Rev 22:11-13)
