^  Deism And The First Amendment:  While the Deists were responsible for laying the Constitutional foundation that Americans today have inherited, these same Americans neither understand the Deists, nor do they understand the full potential that the Constitution has the inherent power to bring about in the lives of mankind.    And from both secular and religious perspective, this ignorance with respect to the Deists is the most dangerous force in the world today.   Why?   Because many of the core Deists not only possessed a comprehension of the Laws which control all aspects of the life that all people live -- but just as important is the fact that some of the Deists possessed the body of esoteric knowledge that the Church threw away when it entered into a covenant relationship with Pagan Rome.   An Abiding Reality is that all of Creation and Life is built upon a Foundation of Immutable Laws -- and success is often the result of man's endeavor to build upon this Foundation of Laws a structure which ensures his success.   While the Law of Gravity is an example of an immutable law which not only holds man to the surface of the earth -- but also is part of the equation that holds the earth in a rotation around the sun -- by understanding the Law of Gravity, man can devise various means to escape its limitations.   Moreover, in the case of space travel, man can harness the very force of gravity as a means of propulsion.   In much the same way, by understanding the Higher Laws which control all movements and realities of this world, the Deists possessed the knowledge to not only overcome the limitations of these Laws -- but to utilize the force of the Laws to bring about their own Enlightenment.  

In the same way that the law of gravity affects every movement upon the face of the earth and beyond, what the Deists portrayed as the Laws of Nature and Nature's God, intimately orchestrates all of man's successes and failures.   If you jump up to escape the earth's gravity, as your body becomes airborne it will initially appear that you have achieved success.   That is until your momentum is arrested by the force of gravity working upon you, and you find your efforts negated.   What is true of gravity is also true of all the Laws -- but in order to bring about the necessary learning experiences through which mankind evolves, the results of man's efforts in conjunction with the Laws are not as immediate as with the case of gravity.    Once understood, mostly all of man's efforts are initially supported by the Laws -- much like the initial success of jumping up and using one's natural strength to have both of one's feet off the ground.   And while the force of gravity will very quickly cause us to become subject to the Laws and lose upward momentum before we fall back to the earth, other Laws are designed to respond back to us in a more gradual cycle.   And this is necessary in order for our efforts to evolve and the opportunity for the initial movement to be built upon and compounded, in order to bring about our greater learning experience.     All movements of man not only initiate the Laws -- but are subject to the trials of the Laws as the movement or endeavor which man initially invokes, evolves through the steps that are at first supported by the Laws, and then subject to the sustaining tests which are brought into being when the Laws were initially invoked.    The Laws, therefore, are imbued with a natural resistance to man's movements and endeavors, in order to test the validity of his movements.     The Laws are designed to test for Wholeness and Completion -- and if a movement, effort or endeavor of man lacks Wholeness, the Laws are designed to turn man's efforts back upon themselves, in the form of a Cosmic Bio-Feedback machine that enables man to learn from his mistakes and misplaced efforts.   And it is this Bio-Feedback essence of the Laws, that insures that failure of half-hearted or incomplete efforts.    Wise men who were often enlightened to the all-encompassing structure of mathematics -- i.e., Pythagoras, Gurdjieff and others -- foresaw the atomic reality that is only now unfolding in the discoveries of Quantum Physics.   Wise men who understood the esoteric reality of the Laws, have long pointed to the example of the Law of Octaves which systematically permits the building up of an initial effort, and then tests it to either divert it back upon itself, or permit it to move onto the next sequence (see The Law Of Octaves).   

Wise men have long understood that what is holographically true with respect to the unfolding of the sequence of the steps that form an octave in music, is in like manner holographically true of all the organic Laws of Creation.   Which means that an initial movement in the first sequence is automatically checked in the reflection of the second sequence -- and is tested in the third-force sequence which is the fruit of the first and second sequences -- resulting in either a twisting of the sequences in a manner that man's organic senses do not immediately sense and recognize, or the opening of a new door/gate that is beyond the perception of organic man whose efforts remain earth-bound in the turning of the sequences.   In fact, the senses of man are imbued with a natural progression that is endemic to his being, that is ultimately responsible for his success or failure in any endeavor.   The expanse of time -- or even the unfoldment of the movement, is all built into the natural progression of the Laws.   Thus, the time-span between the initial movement and the reflective second sequence which is the initial feed-back of the Laws, is greatly dependent upon the complexity and proportions of the first cause of the or initial movement of the sequence.    And this natural progression evolves in the third-force which is the fruit of the two initial sequences.   And wise men who understand the Laws, comprehend that it is at this point where the natural progression is tested and either turned back upon itself in the manner of a person who has arisen to the highest point in his attempt to jump and defy gravity -- or, if the organic twisting of the progression of the sequences are overcome, to move onward beyond natural organic physical limitations.  

In the case of examination by reason, human reasoning must itself contain a large degree of fullness, in order to begin to open the door/gate that gives birth to the facilities of Higher Reasoning that is beyond organic limitations.   For the reasons outlined in the article An Inconvenient Truth, the Apostle Peter portrays the initial tests of human reasoning as the tests presented in what he portrays the scriptures as the Mystery of the Books with the Power to Deceive.    If you vision of either the scriptures, or any aspect of life itself, is immature and lacks depth of understanding, then you will fail the tests that are written into the text of the scriptures as a test -- as are the inconsistencies that you encounter in all of life.   And thus, Peter states that "...Let not any one of you, therefore, altogether complain of Simon, or of any one else; for nothing happens unjustly, since even the falsehoods of Scripture are with good reason presented for a test.”     What is the reason for the test?   In the same way that for our own good, such things as the Law of Gravity checks our attempt to become free of the influence of the earth -- the Laws which bring about the natural progression of our movements, are themselves imbued with the innate bio-feedback qualities to test and check these same movements for wholeness and fullness -- because it is impossible for what is incomplete to succeed beyond a certain step or progression in the sequence of actions.    In the same way that an embryo that is not correctly balanced across the spectrum of male/female chromosomes is in most cases self-aborted and miscarried, so too is all the efforts of man checked by the very Laws that initiated the natural sequences of progression, imbued with the power to return the movement to its initial sequence in accord with the results of the testing at the third to fourth sequence of progression.      

By virtue of the self-initiating testing of the Laws, without an understanding of the what the Deists portrayed as the Laws of Nature and Nature's God, all governments are doomed to failure -- all religions are spiritually flat-lined -- all philosophies are proven to be spurious -- all seekers will search in vein -- and all efforts of men and women everywhere will remain shallow at best.   And while this knowledge of the Laws can be portrayed as our divine birthright to possess, throughout history only small groups of wise men and women have possessed this knowledge, and have used it for the benefit of both themselves, and other wise men and women who desired the fruit of the Tree of Life that bestows upon the eater thereof, the secretes to unlocking the potential to every aspect of life.    To be ignorant of the Laws that the Deists and other groups throughout history have understood and utilized in the proper way, is to invite absolute failure into one's efforts throughout every aspect of life.  

Deism arose out of what was called the Age of Enlightenment -- also know as the Age of Reason -- and is portrayed in the words: "To understand the natural world and humankind's place in it solely on the basis of reason and without turning to religious belief was the goal of the wide-ranging intellectual movement called the Enlightenment. The movement claimed the allegiance of a majority of thinkers during the 17th and 18th centuries, a period that Thomas Paine called the Age of Reason. At its heart it became a conflict between religion and the inquiring mind that wanted to know and understand through reason based on evidence and proof" (see International World History Project -- subheading The Age of Enlightenment).   And what is not at all understood is the fact that in essence, the summation that the Age of Enlightenment was representative of "...a conflict between religion and the inquiring mind" -- but rather, a continuation of the enduring struggle and perpetual conflict that is presented in the article An Inconvenient Truth.   

  Counterfeit Secularized Religion: The proverbial question is this: Is what we call religion today, truly the expression of genuine religion?   Or is what most people call religion more factually secular-religious philosophy that not only inhibits the seeker from finding the truth, but being cloaked in quasi-spiritual garb, is mistaken for genuine spiritual religion?  And when Atheists and non-believers proclaim that there is no need for religion, that is an opinion based upon both irrationality and profound ignorance.    Upon what basis of fact does the Atheist substantiate his opinion that God does not exist, and all religion is worthless?   If it is true that the Atheist has no first-hand knowledge of the true objectives of genuine spiritual religion -- and has only had very limited exposure to manmade institutional secularized-religion which is counterfeit -- then there is virtually nothing rational or knowledgeable in the thinking of Atheism.   

Throughout man's history the outward forms of religion has always been dictated by the secular or quasi-secular authorities who used traditional religion to control the thinking and lives of the people.    From an historical perspective: If the teachings of Jesus represented the truth of spiritual religion, then the rejection of this truth on the part of the Pharisees is representative of the secularized-religion of the people.   Contrary to popular misconceptions, in the original Gospel teachings the person of Jesus was not God -- but rather, a man who became the Anointed Messiah/Christ (see The Ten Words) -- and having attained this Power of Enlightenment of Mind and Being, the man Jesus is portrayed as having achieved Oneness with the Indwelling Logos (Mind of God).     That this essential truth was again rejected by the secular-religion of the Gentiles under the banner of the Orthodox (Gentile) Church, is merely further proof that secular-religion is not the valid expression of genuine religion which is totally spiritual in nature.    Which means that the Deists who became enlightened and opposed organized religion, did so because of the counterfeit structure of secular-religion in relation to genuine spiritual-religion.

If we pose the question: Is traditional religion a search for truth?  Or is it (1) a means to fill the coffers of the collection plate?  (2) fill the pews in the endeavor to gain political power and advantage?  (3) used by politicians to control the thinking and lives of the people?   In the same way that Jesus was condemned as a heretic by both the Pharisees and the Gentile Church which now masquarades under the banner of Christianity -- and both the Jews and the Orthodox Christians equally rejected the essential spiritual teachings in favor of manmade dogma -- organized religion is at best a shadow of the original teachings which is represented in the reality of spiritual religion -- which is always condemned as heresy by the authorities who control the thinking of the people.   That those who have been on the side of truth have always been hunted down and opposed as heretics, is representative of the true reality of the struggles and conflicts that have arose between government controlled secularized religion, and true Spiritual Religion that has always been condemned as heresy by the masses of faith-based believers.   Therefore, to answer the question: Is the traditional religions of the people the truth?   Perhaps the perfect example of the folly of traditional religion is that which can only be portrayed as the insanity of the Christian world with respect to The Jesus Test.   To knowingly edit the words which the Gospel states was spoken by God to mankind in order to adopt pagan beliefs, must be seen as an apostasy on the part of the Church even more evil than those who hammered the spikes into the hands of the historical man Jesus.  

The fact that what we would portray as organic human reasoning must be free to express itself, in order for Higher Reasoning that transcends organic human limitations to be born -- and the development of Higher Reasoning is always one of the key objectives of True Religion -- only with this enlightened (Age of Enlightenment) understanding, can we even begin to comprehend the perpetual struggle at its core.   Higher Reason and Knowledge which is often portrayed as being esoteric, was always condemned as heresy by the pseudo-religions common to mankind, because it always threatened the power structure of the authorities -- whether these authorities were quasi-religious in their cloak of appearance, or non-religious and Atheist in their outer form.   In the example of Thomas Paine in the above, while he opposed the Church, he was not only opposed by the king of England -- but he was prosecuted in absentia and sentenced to death for opposing the power structure of England which used the religious cloak in its endeavor to control the thinking of the people.   Therefore, it must be understood that when we attempt to define the conflict between reason and religion, it is imperative to recognize that traditional religion is pseudo-religion -- and quasi-religion at best.   And that the real conflict is in fact an internal religious struggle between the outer spurious system of counterfeit religious-facade and the pseudo-authorities who use and control that facade like wolves in sheep's attire, in their perpetual war with the inner core who are representative of the spiritual essence of religion -- who are portrayed as heretics and enemies of both church and state.      

Confining our present understanding to that of our Common Era, when the Church of the Roman Empire hunted down and murdered the Ebionites of the Nazirenes of the Vow of Consecration and the Spiritual (Gnostic) Christians who refused to adhere to the religious doctrines of the emperor, the Spirit of Christianity was put to death -- and what was preserved was a corpse that was secular and institutional in nature -- and had absolutely nothing in common with the essence of the original spiritual teachings of Jesus.   That to be valid, a genuine religion must be spiritual in nature -- and spiritual religion is based upon a foundation of genuine knowledge and the expression of reason in all things -- then we must reevaluate the statement that the Age of Enlightenment was representative of "...a conflict between religion and the inquiring mind" -- and instead recognize that what is spurious and counterfeit always opposes what is true and genuine.   Further, we must also recognize that in order for Higher Reasoning to be born, what can best be portrayed as organic human reasoning must be unshackled and free to express itself in its avenues of inquiry.    The fact that truth is never diminished by disbelief -- and reason is never negated by irrationality -- insures that Higher Truth and Reason is perpetually awaiting rediscovery whenever it is hidden under the garb of man's folly, superstition and ignorance that is promoted by pseudo-religion, manmade earth-bound philosophy that has no real validity, and counterfeit authority.   

In the example of Christianity: When Jesus warned that the vast majority of mankind dwells in what he portrayed as the "outer darkness" of mind and being (see Outer Darkness), what is not understood is the fact that this disenfranchised condition which is often portrayed as man's organic blindness to what lies beyond his physical senses, is the result of man's own mindset that alienates him from the Source of Truth within himself.   That organic man remains oblivious to the presence of an Inner Kingdom that must be accessed through the transformation of his physical body, which permits the expansion of mind beyond the limitations of the earth-frequencies of thought and vision, is simply a reality that the vast majority of mankind are not even prepared to contemplate.   Therefore, one of the primary objectives of a genuine spiritual religion is to remove the cloak of blindness that inhibits sincere seekers from bringing about a direct encounter with higher Truth and Reasoning in their search for the answers to life's questions.   What is important to recognize is the fact that the solution to overcoming the blindness that Jesus portrayed as the "outer darkness" of mind and being -- a reality also portrayed in the analogy of the illusions of Plato's Cave (see Plato) -- was for the individual to put on what Jesus presented as the necessary "wedding garment" which is symbolic of a condition that would prepare his body and physical consciousness to bring about this encounter with higher reasoning and truth.   And it must also be noted that in the original Gospel teachings, those people who were considered the "chosen ones", received an even worse fate than the common people who had not yet put on the "wedding garment".    And the fact that the scriptures openly warn that the fate of the believers who are complacent, is worse than that of the unbelievers (see http://TheLie.org ) -- and when analyzed, this complacency can only be portrayed as Christian Insanity (see The Jesus Test) -- then it becomes truly difficult to even understand how the congregation of believers even think.

Segmentation Of Mind: Segmentation means that there are divisions within a structure -- partitions that permit compartmentalization -- and within each of these segments, different functions are attained.   Man's body is segmented into different organs and systems that are necessary to support the high functioning of the whole.   Both man and an amoeba are individualized and one -- and the differences are so vast, that the two cannot even be compared with each other.   When Jesus declared that the Kingdom would never come upon the earth in the manner that carnal men look for it (Luke 17:20-21 - http://GateOfEden.com ) -- what he was saying was that the mind of man was segmented in order to serve a higher purpose that was beyond his organic perception and comprehension.   As an example: There is a higher purpose why kindergarten is segmented from the rest of the elementary school environment -- why middle school is segmented and separate from elementary and high school -- and why high school is segmented and separate from colleges and universities.   A one room school house is dysfunctional.   In like manner, the vast majority of elementary students have never themselves entered through the doors of a university -- and yet, their teachers often speak of universities as the higher goal of elementary school developmental learning.     The same is true of government -- i.e., congress is segmented into the House of Representatives and the Senate.   The executive branch of government is segmented from both the congress and judiciary.  

When the Deists made reference to the Laws of Nature and Nature's God, they were very much portraying the Laws that bring about the natural segmentation of mind and being that immerses all of Creation within its domain.   Further, that once the human condition of a natural segmentation of mind and being is understood as the result of the Laws that Jesus made note of when he taught that the Kingdom is within each individual -- and which the Deists often referred to as encompassing all of Creation -- it is man's own disenfranchised condition of mind brought about by his ignorance of these Laws  that not only alienates him from the Source of Truth -- but maintains the great barrier to his perception of Truth and Reason which the biblical author's warned was beyond man's organic mindset (see Mystery).   When Jesus portrayed the Pharisees as blind guides, it was because they were blind to the reality of the inner Kingdom that they believed would come upon the earth.   In like manner, when the Deists who understood the Laws, stated that this world was functioning on a type of auto-pilot which was controlled by the Laws (of God) to bring about a certain and necessary reality in the life of individual man, it was similar to saying that an elementary school is not only segmented from the rest of the system of education -- but has its own rules and guidelines (Laws) which are intended to maintain the objectives of the elementary school and serve the purpose of that lower aspect of education -- a level of instruction and education that is absolutely necessary in order to advance into the next levels of instruction.    And one of the major differences between the educational systems of mankind and the system of educational development that serves the higher purpose of this world, is seen in the fact that there are no social-advancements between grade levels.   In this world, the Laws are very much the testing agents that serve a higher purpose -- and if you fail the testing of the Laws, then there can be no advancement beyond the levels of segmentation.   Moreover, there are no exemptions -- i.e., when Carolyn Kennedy attempted to run for the office of senator of New York, she did so on the basis that her father had been president, her uncle was a senator, and she came from a very political family.   Yet, in the reality of the Laws of this world, being rich and politically influential is in fact a detriment to real advancement.    What was portrayed as the Laws of Nature and Nature's God, requires what Jesus stated was Wholeness and Completeness -- and without the necessary Wholeness, little to no advancement can be achieved -- i.e., "And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.  I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance" (Luke 5:31-32 KJV).    While the Christian world is in denial with respect to the meaning of these words, what they state is that those who are able to achieve what Jesus portrayed as "wholeness", were not in need of Jesus the physician -- because having fulfilled the Laws within themselves, they had already achieved the necessary "righteousness" that is required.  

Seekers in our modern day have been deprived of truly understanding the purpose and objectives of the Gospel, because of the politics of the Church leaders and the intervention of government secular authorities as to what Christians were permitted to believe.    In the original Gospels it is easily proven that the historical man Jesus became the Anointed (Messiah/Christ) by fulfilling the Law which enabled his advancement -- i.e., the original words spoken at his baptism in the Jordan was   (see The Ten Words).   And the original explanation for how Jesus achieved this state of spiritual enlightenment and Anointing of Mind, was presented in the words that Jesus "...was justified by fulfilling the Law. He was the Christ of God, since not one of the rest of mankind had observed the Law completely. Had any one else fulfilled the commandments of the Law, he would have been the Christ, for they assert that our Lord Himself was a man in like sense with all humanity" (see Hippolytus, Refut. Omn. Haer. vii. 34).    And it is these same Laws that segment the mind of man -- thereby, limiting his perception and understanding to the elementary realities of this world -- inducing a blindness to anything beyond these organic limitations of the physical.  
            

In the same way that a great mountain range creates a barrier between a lowland and what exists on the other side of the peaks, there exists a natural organic barrier that is both created, and maintained by the natural Laws -- and this barrier exists within the mind of man that insulates him from what lies beyond.   Again, from a Christian perspective, this esoteric knowledge of the Laws was taught to the disciples by Jesus -- and it was this body of esoteric knowledge that permitted them to escape and move beyond the organic barrier within their own mind and being -- enabling them to enter the Inner Kingdom and learn all Truths from the Source.    That this body of esoteric knowledge was lost by the Church -- and became outlawed as heresy by the pseudo-authorities of the Church -- only means that the Church by virtue of its adoption of Pagan Roman doctrines of belief, disenfranchised those who adopted and embraced the system of pseudo-religious beliefs.    In contradistinction, those who released themselves from the shackles of manmade Church dogma, and pursued a search from Truth, were able to meet with varying degrees of success because the Source of Truth remains within them beyond the natural barrier maintained by the Laws (of Nature and Nature's God).   That the acquisition and access to Higher Reasoning, is therefore born from the enlightened exercise of human reasoning that enables a person to reject the superstition and manmade dogma of the Church in their search for truth, represents an integral element of the true Spiritual Religious Path of True Enlightenment.    Therefore, the Deists who emerged out of the Age of Enlightenment, applied the God-Given Gift of Reason and Knowledge of the Laws of Nature and Nature's God, to reject the dogmatic folly of traditional institutionalized religion which was manmade and maintained under secular control, as a spring-board to tap into the Source of Higher Reasoning that resided on the other side of the natural barrier within their own mind and being -- as is the case with all of mankind.    Therefore, those who we call Deists today were very much the seekers of the esoteric knowledge that was possessed by the original disciples of Jesus -- and thus, they were truly Gnostic (Experiential Spiritual Knowledge).  

In many respects, after the people broke free of the folly of the Church of Rome, it can be realized that Deism grew out of the absolute irrationality and insanity that was promoted by the leaders of the Reformation, Calvin and Luther -- i.e., Deism stood in opposition to Luther's Folly which was a total rejection of rational thought as seen in Luther's declaration “Reason is the greatest enemy that faith has; it never comes to the aid of spiritual things, but - more frequently than not - struggles against the divine Word, treating with contempt all that emanates from God” (Quoted in: The Great Thoughts; compiled by George Seldes).    Deists understood the Laws of Nature and Nature's God, because they received this esoteric knowledge directly from the Source -- which is in fact the same true objective as traditional religion which modern people associated with Deism portray as "revealed religion".    While this body of esoteric knowledge was always available to all of mankind, they perpetually alienated themselves from the Source of Knowledge because they subjected their thinking to the doctrines and dogma of men.   Further, in not understanding the application of the Key of Knowledge, even the modern neo-Deists are as ignorant of the true meaning of the scriptures as is the faith-based religions which they often oppose.   

Those who understood the Laws, and had themselves began to embrace and tap into the Higher Reasoning and Knowledge of the Source, understood that the true purpose of the Constitutional form of government in the United States was to create the necessary environment that would enable man to achieve his true potential of enlightenment.   The manmade doctrines and pseudo-knowledge of the Church, stood in direct opposition to man's process of advancement and enlightenment.   But, in the same way that the American people have not even begun to bring about the full potential which the Constitution was envisioned to manifest, neither has the Church envisioned the true potential or meaning of the very Bibles which they champion and promote.   And in this respect, both our Constitutional form of government and the Gospels have been drawn from the same Source -- in order to open the door to the same objectives -- and because the people have failed to seize the opportunity that both our Constitutional form of Government and the Gospels have presented, mankind remains under a cloud of self-imposed ignorance.    @@@

While it is true that the American people do not at all understand the Deist foundation of the Constitution, perhaps even more objectionable is the fact that a segment of modern Atheists has begun to promote themselves as Deists on the basis of the Deist opposition to organized religion.   The problem is seen in the fact that the Deists were not at all Atheists -- and their very enlightened understanding of the Laws which are embodied in the words: "...the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them...", are representative of a mind enlightened by Creator-God.   What the Atheists fail to understand is the fact that it is the expansion of Reason beyond organic carnal limitations that is responsible for the position of Deism as presented in the words: "Deism ...is the standpoint that reason and observation of the natural world, without the need for organized religion, can determine that a supreme being created the universe. Further the term often implies that this supreme being does not intervene in human affairs or suspend the natural laws of the universe. Deists typically reject supernatural events such as prophecy and miracles, tending to assert that God (or "The Supreme Architect") has a plan for the universe that is not to be altered by intervention in the affairs of human life. Deists believe in the existence of God without any reliance on revealed religion, religious authority or holy books" (see Deism).  What the Christian fails to understand is the fact that the man known as the Apostle Paul basically stated the same exact truths that are expressed in the above words which most Christians condemn.   And what the quasi-Atheists who claims to be a Deist by virtue of their opposition to organized religion fails to comprehend, is the fact that to even hold such a position which the Deists promoted, requires a higher knowledge and reason than what can be associated with normal human consciousness.   Therefore, it can be set forth that either the Deists themselves had access to a higher revelation not perceived and understood by the vast majority of mankind, or they were themselves a fraud because they would have had to manufacture this doctrinal position.   And if the Deists were a fraud, then the Atheists and Secular Progressives are correct in their quest to abandon the Constitution, and the whole concept of UnAlienable God-Given Rights must be seen as spurious.   So, which are they?   The recipient of a higher rational thought by virtue of an enlightened understanding?   An enlightened understanding that enables them to perceive and comprehend what neither the Atheist or Theist possesses the vision to understand?   Or were the Deists just a group of charlatans who manufactured a doctrine in opposition to that held by traditional western religion?   The most important concept in the above statement that neither Theists or Atheists understand is seen in the words that the "...Supreme being does not intervene in human affairs or suspend the natural laws of the universe ...assert[ing] that God (or "The Supreme Architect") has a plan for the universe that is not to be altered by intervention in the affairs of human life."   Why?   Unless the Deist can explain the position that the Divine Plan of Creator-God "...for the universe that is not to be altered by intervention in the affairs of human life" -- and further explain how they arrived as such a position that others do not perceive using reason -- then Deism itself must be considered an anti-revealed religion hoax.    Yet, in contradistinction, I can demonstrate the validity of this Deist position by stating: Because the Will and Purpose as set forth in the Objectives of Creator-God was laid down in the beginning, and the very Spiritual DNA of the Laws (of God) are charged with the responsibility of bringing this Higher Will, Purpose and Objectives about, there simply is no need for "...intervention in the affairs of human life".    And that God's Work was Perfect, means that there is no reason for tweaking and intervention in the Divine Plan that faith-based and carnal reasoning is incapable of comprehending.    

With these facts stated, I will briefly demonstrate conclusively that while Deists stated that God can be revealed through the use of Reason, they were not speaking of either carnal reasoning from an Atheist perspective, or the blind-faith reasoning associated with organized religion.   In the same way that there is earthly knowledge and Heavenly Knowledge, there is earthly reasoning which is by its very nature bound and limited to the things of this world, and there is a Heavenly Reasoning and Intellect to which the Laws and Truths of all Realities are presented and revealed to the mind of the spiritually mature Seeker of Truth and the Kingdom.   And that, because both Atheism and organized religion stifles and impedes the development of this Heavenly Knowledge, is the reason why the Deists opposed the Church.   But even more important is the fact that the founding documents and the Constitution of the United States can not only be portrayed as a Gift from God -- but it is this Gift that laid the foundation for men of Heavenly Reason and Heavenly Knowledge to emerge from the ignorance that immersed the Church and Europe in the Dark Ages.    And that man is presently entering a new phase of Dark Ages brought about by the folly of Atheism and carnal reasoning -- and the Church has thus far failed to inhibit this new phase of Dark Ages from engulfing the minds and lives of the people -- is the very reason why the time has come to understand the Deist perspective of the Constitution and the "...Laws of Nature and of Nature's God".

In the same way that, because the Church rejected the original vision and objectives of the original authors of the Gospels -- condemning these holy men of enlightened vision as heretics -- the modern world knows virtually nothing about either the man Jesus, or the core disciples who are allegorically portrayed in the Gospels (see An Inconvenient Truth).   In like manner, because the American people know virtually nothing of any substance regarding the core Deists who, in spite of both the Christians and the elitist's who wanted to form a monarchy like the governments of Europe which they were accustomed to, formed the framework of our Constitutional government that few Americans even comprehend the vision and potential of this Gift from God to mankind.   And I submit that in the same way that the Deists were privy to a higher direct revelation that surpassed the limits of normal human reasoning -- and that this direct revelation of the core Deists was in harmony with the vision and objectives of the authors of the Gospels who were in like manner rejected as heretics -- the framework of the Constitutional government which they brought forth, was borne of this Enlightened Vision that organic man is blind to, by virtue of his own failure to properly develop his higher facilities of mind that is the shared objective of the Gospel authors.   And because Americans are truly ignorant of the knowledge of our Nations forefathers, they are presently squandering away a gift that would be almost impossible to restore once it is lost.  

Atheists and Secular Progressives are presently waging a war with the concept of God-Given UnAlienable Rights -- and because the American people have virtually no understanding of what the Deists portrayed as the Laws of Nature and Nature's God -- or how these Laws orchestrate our nations success or failure -- they are rapidly embracing Atheist and Secular Progressive leaders who seek to undermine what they call the whole concept of American Exceptionalism.   Yet, it was the very Laws that the core Deists understood when they designed the framework of our Constitutional form of government, that brought about the unparalleled success of the American people.   And these same American people remain ignorant of both the Laws, as well as the Source of Knowledge that our Deist forefathers tapped into, that motivates a great many of modern Americans to surrender their freedom and liberty to the very forces of worldly power that seeks to enslave them.   Thus, the time has come for the American people to be enlightened as to the higher reality of the God-Given Gift that they are presently squandering away.   Therefore, the next three main chapters and sub-chapters will provide the reader a behind the scenes insight into how and why the core enlightened Deists were able to invoke and use the Laws to benefit the whole of the American people in ways that few understand today.    

Modern man has absolutely no idea with respect to the depth and reality of what would be defined as True Spiritual Religion.    Traditional religion which is faith-based, has basically remained shallow by virtue of rejecting Spiritual Knowledge -- and in practice, it can be said that faith-based religion dwells under the cloak of a Vow Of Ignorance.    To the degree that the majority of the people who consider themselves religious, do not even understand the difference between religion and philosophy.    And to their own detriment, faith-based religion has permitted secular authorities to not only define religion -- placing religion in a very confined box that equates to a spiritual coffin -- but it is in fact this secular perception of religion that has become the downfall of the modern Church.   The clergy who are themselves without a rudder in the sea of confusion, promote Social Justice and Marxist government programs as the fulfillment of the Gospel.   Yet, when the core principles and objectives of the Gospel is truly understood, nothing could be further from the truth than what is being preached from these spiritually disenfranchised pulpits.  

The next chapters below will deal with the Deist framework of our Constitutional form of government which is under severe attack today.   Why is this knowledge important today?   In the words of John Adams:   "But a Constitution of Government once changed from Freedom, can never be restored. Liberty, once lost, is lost forever."   And with the loss of liberty very quickly follows the loss of the essential First Amendment Freedoms that form the basis of enlightenment and the path to man's higher objectives and goals.    Again, John Adams rightfully warned:  “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”    When John Adams makes reference to the need of religion in a Constitutional government, the practice of religion meant something entirely different to him than it does to most Christians today.   As a Deist, in true John Lennon fashion, Adams also said: “This would be the best of all possible worlds, if there were no religion in it”.   Yet, it was this same John Adams who was the vice president under George Washington, and our second president who wrote about the essence of Deism that is not at all understood today: “The ten commandments and the sermon on the mount contain my religion” (see Encyclopedia Britannica: Johan Adams, Deism and Religious Philosophy).    Thus, from John Adam's Deist perspective, religion was the lifestyle and the practice of the person's religious philosophy, which was in fact the means to bring about the manifestation of a person's beliefs in the life that they are living.    The Revelation of Creator-God is not made to a Church or organized religion -- but rather, to individuals who create within themselves a condition that enables them to tap into the Higher Source of Knowledge that both organized religion, Atheists and Secular Progressives all equally reject.   And from a biblical perspective, this spiritual condition is portrayed a the refinement of self to make one's self the "good ground" that Jesus said was required to possess any degree of enlightened reason and understanding (see The Sower And The Seed).   

An interesting and appropriate statement by one of the earliest authorities of the Church is that made by Clement of Alexandria when he compared the inherent weakness of faith-based religion, to that of the Spiritual Christians who had acquired the Sacred Knowledge (Gnosis) of the Kingdom -- i.e., “Faith is the foundation; knowledge the superstructure, by knowledge faith is perfected, for to know is more than to believe. Faith is a summary knowledge of urgent truths; knowledge a sure demonstration of what has been received through faith, being itself reared upon faith through the teachings of the Lord. Thus the Gnostic grasps the complete truth of all revelation from the beginning of the world to the end, piercing to the depths of scripture, of which the believer tastes the surface only. As a consequence of this intelligent sympathy with the Divine Will, the Gnostic becomes in perfect unity in himself, and as far as possible like God. Definite outward observances cease to have any value for one whose being is brought into abiding harmony with that which is eternal; he has no wants, no passions; he rests in the contemplation of God, which is and will be his unfailing blessedness.”

The problem is that where Clement portrays the reality of "...the Gnostic [who] grasps the complete truth of all revelation from the beginning of the world to the end", those who possessed the Divine Knowledge of the higher reality of the soul and the Kingdom of God were condemned as heretics by the counterfeit leaders of the Church and the series of Roman Emperors who controlled Church doctrine and dogma.  And thus, because the history of the Church is a perpetual environment of government control of not only Church doctrine -- but also the very definition of religion itself -- this secularized political environment which is actually counterfeit-religion confused with what is genuine spiritual religion, has resulted in the fact that both the faith-based Churches, as well as government, have colluded to embrace this secular definition of religion.    Why?   Why was the segment of the Church that portrayed itself as Orthodox totally ignorant of the core objectives of the Gospel teachings?   Seeking to be benefactors of a worldly government that had the inherent secular power to totally corrupt the Church itself?   Because the Church itself lacks an understanding of the very core objectives of a True Spiritual Religion -- and this fact remains true to this very day.    For the most part, what is practiced in our Churches today would be better defined as secular institutionalized religion that has virtually little to nothing in common with the original core objectives and teachings of Jesus and the Gospels.   In truth, the Churches have lost their way because of the manmade doctrines of belief that were imposed upon the Church by government in the past who used religion as a means to maintain rule over the thinking of the people.   To oppose government authority, was to oppose God -- with the punishment of a promised eternal hell.  

Once properly understood, it can be said that the critics of the Church -- many of whom are Secular Progressives and Atheists -- themselves have absolutely no idea as to the the spiritual reality and objectives of religion with respect to opening the door to achieving man's ultimate potential.   Where the Atheists should be assisting the religious world to escape their beliefs of a self-created Demiurge -- by helping them search for and see the Truth and the esoteric meaning of the written word of the scriptures -- they have instead chosen to walk an equal path of ignorance.   And since all valid knowledge begins with the knowledge of one's self -- i.e., Jesus in the Gospel of Thomas proclaims: "But if you will not know yourselves, you dwell in poverty and it is you who are that poverty... Whoever finds himself is superior to the world" -- then the Atheists who reject the self-created Demiurge of much of the religious world, simply has not excuse for their own blind ignorance.  

And as one comes to understand the journey of the soul -- and how, from lifetime to lifetime, the soul often switches polarities in the conflicts of life -- a very different picture of self and this world begins to emerge.   This more enlightened world-view which is portrayed as the Far Country in the parable of the prodigal son, is in fact God's Schoolhouse which is necessary to evolve all of mankind from the Alpha of ignorance, to the Omega of Absolute Knowing.   But just as important is the fact that the Laws made reference to by the Deists are seen as the forces and guideposts which accomplish this task of evolving all souls to completion and perfection, by forcing each individual to confront their own actions, inactions and complacency to what they should have done.  Many times this involves a reversal of roles, as each person directly confronts their own past actions and ways.    As an example: Many of the Atheist activists today who oppose the Church, were the fire and brimstone preachers of the more distant past.    Yet, while the Atheists and the faith-based believers often switch polarities from life to life, their common enemy is the people of True Spiritual Religion who seek the Divine Manna (Gnosis/Knowledge) of the Kingdom.    And if we pose the question: Why has the practice of Genuine Spiritual Religion remained suppressed by both church and state?    The answer is very simple -- i.e., it is impossible for those who possess the Knowledge of the soul and the Gnosis of the Kingdom to be led and ruled over by despots -- both secular and sectarian.    And thus, in order to rule over the people, the counterfeit clergy and pseudo-Atheist intellectuals -- in conjunction with despotic secular rulers -- must keep the people ignorant of man's higher spiritual reality.   

The modern congregation of faith-based believers in many ways are the victims of government intervention into the affairs of religion that has brought about the spiritual disenfranchisement of the Church.   In many ways it can be said that they have become afflicted with Stockholm Syndrome -- i.e., they are now championing the thinking and doctrines of their despotic oppressors.   In the same way that Atheists and Secular Progressives are presently striving to undermine the concept of God-Given UnAlienable Constitutional Rights, the political power of fourth century secular Rome intervened in religious affairs, and succeeded in destroying the spiritual essence of the Church when it hunted down and murdered those Christians who refused to accept the religious doctrines of the emperor.   When the pagan Christians who called themselves Orthodox entered into a covenant with the ruthless Emperor Constantine, the first of the Gospel accounts to be rewritten in order to make it better support the doctrines of Pagan Rome, was the Book of Acts (see http://BibleCorruption.com ).   The original Gospel accounts was focused on the core objective of the return of the prodigal sons and daughters to the Kingdom of the Father which they abandoned in the Alpha of Creation (see http://GateOfEden.com ) -- and the Book of Acts was representative of a series of important scriptures which portrayed this evolution of the individual from an existence as ordinary people, into Anointed (Messiah/Christ) men and women who not only knew all Truths, but were allegorically portrayed as being able to perform even greater miracles than did Jesus himself, in the original Gospel accounts.   But, in order to use Christianity to enable both the government and the pseudo-clergy to rule over the people, the very core objectives of the Gospels had to be censored and suppressed.   And thus, it was the initial rewriting of the Book of Acts that caused the Ebionite Nazirenes and the Spiritual (Gnostic) Christians to hold council and decide upon the preservation of seven (7) libraries of scriptures that had not been corrupted by the Church of Constantine (see Pure Scriptures Do Exist).    Why were these more pure scriptures so important to preserve?   Unlike the multitude of faith-based believers, both the Ebionite Nazirenes and the Spiritual Christians understood the journey and perfection of the soul over the course of many lifetimes (see The Ten Reasons Why The Church Rejects The Reality Of The Pre-Existent Soul) -- and the spiritually evolved souls sought to preserve the sacred writings, so they would be available to them when their souls return to this world in a future lifetime (see An Inconvenient Truth).   In understanding the Laws -- and the relevance of the statement: “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows” (Gal 6:7 NIV) -- by actively defying the emperor and his Church, and working to preserve the pure scriptures -- it was understood that the Laws would return access to these same scriptures to these same souls in the future.   As set forth by the pre-Nicene Church Father Origen: “Every soul... comes into this world strengthened by the victories or weakened by the defeats of its previous life” (Origen, De Principiis - see Chickens Come Home To Roost).     By properly applying what Jesus portrayed as the Key of Knowledge to the scriptures, they were able to spiritually restore themselves and regain access to the Kingdom within.       

While many faith-based religious people may take exception to the above statements, they do so not only to their own pearl, but they reject these statements because they fail to even understand what a Spiritual Religion is.   An institutionalized Church which is common to this world, exists on a horizontal plane.   And because it lacks depth -- failing to grow root within the individual (see  Sower And The Seed), and produce the necessary spiritual fruit that brings about the promised manifestation of the Kingdom within the congregation of believers -- faith-based religion instead (like a politician who seduces the people with their words) promises life after death -- or, the anticipation of a Kingdom that will come upon the earth at some future date when certain unknown requirements are fulfilled.   And it is a fact that every Doomsday prophet has perpetually predicted the End Times in every generation since the scriptures were written.   The only indisputable fact with respect to the countless false prophesies, is that the making of the prophesy has been very lucrative to promote.  The prophets of doom have often lived lavish lifestyles off the collection plate that has been received in the name of God and the approaching End Times.  As perhaps one classic example: Pope Gregory I, who as pope was declared to be infallible, persuaded the rich people in his day that the end of the world was at hand, and if they wanted to go to heaven, they had better pass on their property to the church before the coming of the great day. The result was that the Papacy became the richest land owner in Europe. This same prediction -- that the end of the world has arrived and is imminent -- has been repeated an uncountable number of times in every generation since the beginning of our common era.   The Jehovah's Witnesses, the Seventh Day Adventists, as well as many other Christian sects, were all born from failed Doomsday Prophesies where the faith-based believers who did not understand the application of the Key of Knowledge, continued to promote their error instead of seeking to understand the spiritual meaning of the End Times prophesies of the scriptures -- each continuing to embrace and promote the error of their understanding into subsequent generations of spiritually disenfranchised believers.    When their prophesies fail to come about as predicted, instead of examining their thinking that caused them to arrive at their erroneous predictions, 

In a faith-based religion where knowledge is shunned and condemned as heresy, blind acceptance is required in the doctrines of the cult's respective leaders -- with the promise of reward or punishment when one's physical life has been culminated here on earth.    In contradistinction, Spiritual Religion is the means to prove the core doctrines of belief while the seeker is still alive in the physical body.    But in order to bring about this higher spiritual objective, one must build upon the proper and balanced framework of mind and being -- i.e., the seeker must become the "good ground" in the parable of the Sower And The Seed.    While faith-based religion does not care about or understand the need for the required foundation, this foundation was paramount in the thinking and objectives of our Deist Founding Fathers who framed our Constitutional form of government.  In understanding the Laws, they acknowledged that each and every man, woman and child is the offspring of their Heavenly Father -- and like the prodigal son, possesses an inheritance that few understand the higher reality of.   Part of the necessary equation is seen in the reality that to bring about the greatest success, the people must be free of despotic rule by both Church and state, in order to manifest the foundational mindset and lifestyle to bring about what is portrayed as the inheritance of the prodigal son.   And thus, the great success -- and what is often portrayed as American Exceptionalism -- is the direct result of the work of our Deist framers to manifest the proper foundation of government that would initiate the Laws that permit advancement, which would in turn inaugurate this great success enjoyed by the American people.  

When properly understood, Judaism has remained a spiritually flat-lined institutionalized religion, because Judaism itself was an ancient Mystery Religion that is not at all understood by the very people who call themselves Jews today.   Jesus condemned the leaders of the Jewish sects of the Sadducees and Pharisees -- not because of their unbelief -- but rather, because they promoted blind faith in the doctrines of men.   What Jesus portrayed as the Key of Knowledge was thrown away by a body of secular minded carnal rabbis such as the Pharisees -- who only possessed a very surface knowledge of the scriptures -- i.e., "Jesus answered and said to them, You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God" (Matt 22:29 NKJ).    Thus, because they lacked true depth of understanding, Jesus portrayed them as blind guides who had thrown away the Key of Knowledge -- i.e., "How terrible it will be for you experts in religious law! For you hide the key to knowledge from the people. You don't enter the Kingdom yourselves, and you prevent others from entering" (Luke 11:52).    Thus, the test of the validity of the Jewish religious teachers and leaders, was in fact seen as their success in the endeavor to "...enter the Kingdom [them]selves" -- and it was their failure to bring about this spiritual objective that caused Jesus to condemn than as "blind guides" whose spiritual folly "...prevent[ed] others from entering"!!!    But in view of the fact that the Church of Rome followed in the same exact path and footsteps as the carnal Jews, what is stated in Jesus' words is just as applicable to the modern Church, as it was to the carnal Jewish leaders who Jesus condemned.  

To understand the essence of a Spiritual Religion, you must first understand why Jesus condemned and rejected the Jewish teachers and "...experts in religious law" as being spiritually counterfeit.   The allegation of Jesus' words is seen in the fact that there exists what he called a Key of Knowledge -- and when this Key of Knowledge is properly applied, then the person possessed the ability to enter the Kingdom -- i.e., "...For you hide the key to knowledge from the people. You don't enter the Kingdom yourselves, and you prevent others from entering."    Thus, the objective of a Spiritual Religion is to reveal and properly apply the Key of Knowledge in such a way, that the person gains access to the Kingdom -- which Jesus said was within each of us (see Luke 17:20-21 @ http://GateOfEden.com ).   And the fact that the carnal Jews who, in their very limited understanding of the scriptures, was teaching the people to look for the Kingdom of God to come upon the earth -- in the same way that Christians today look for the Second Coming -- it is seen that the leaders of both the Jews and the Christians had in fact hidden and thrown away the Key of Knowledge.   Failing to fulfill the requirement of entering the Kingdom themselves -- made them blind guides who "...prevent others from entering."  And because the Church itself threw away the Key of Knowledge under Roman rule, these same words apply to modern Christians as much as the Jews who Jesus rejected and condemned.

Throughout man's history the counterfeit religious leaders who acted in collusion with secular authorities perpetually hunted down the adherents of Spiritual Religion -- declaring them to be heretics.   In the Middle Ages they held Inquisitions where the faith and belief of the people were tested -- and those who failed the test, were tortured and put to death.   As just an example, the case of Giordano Bruno can be used as a demonstration of those Christians who did not subscribe to the dogma of Pagan Rome (see Giordano Bruno).   Quoting the article to present the concepts of cosmology which was foundational to Bruno's positions: "Bruno believed (and praised Copernicus for establishing a scientific explanation for the fact) that the Earth revolves around the sun, and that the apparent diurnal rotation of the heavens is an illusion caused by the rotation of the Earth around its axis. Bruno also held (following Nicholas of Cusa) that because God is infinite the universe would reflect this fact in boundless immensity. Bruno also asserted that the stars in the sky were really other suns like our own, around which orbited other planets. He indicated that support for such beliefs in no way contradicted scripture or true religion  ...Under this model, the Sun was simply one more star, and the stars all suns, each with its own planets. Bruno saw a solar system of a sun/star with planets as the fundamental unit of the universe. According to Bruno, infinite God necessarily created an infinite universe, formed of an infinite number of solar systems, separated by vast regions full of Aether, because empty space could not exist. (Bruno did not arrive at the concept of a galaxy.) Comets were part of a synodus ex mundis of stars, and not—as other authors maintained at the time—ephemeral creations, divine instruments, or heavenly messengers. Each comet was a world, a permanent celestial body, formed of the four elements.   Bruno's cosmology is marked by infinitude, homogeneity, and isotropy, with planetary systems distributed evenly throughout. Matter follows an active animistic principle: it is intelligent and discontinuous in structure, made up of discrete atoms. This animism (and a corresponding disdain for mathematics as a means to understanding) is the most dramatic respect in which Bruno's cosmology differs from what today passes for a common-sense picture of the universe.  During the later 16th century, and throughout the 17th century, Bruno's ideas were held up for ridicule, debate, or inspiration. Margaret Cavendish, for example, wrote an entire series of poems against "atoms" and "infinite worlds" in Poems and Fancies in 1664. Bruno's true, if partial, rehabilitation would have to wait for the implications of Newtonian cosmology."

In the presentation of the esoteric knowledge that was revealed to the inner core of Jesus' disciples, I greatly expand upon the reality of matter and cosmology of mind throughout this present article in order to present an enlightened picture that must be considered if the disciple is to begin to seek and manifest their true spiritual potential.   In the same way that much of the body of this esoteric Knowledge (Gnosis) was revealed to me by the True Prophet/Son of God, the question becomes: Was Giordano Bruno put to death for expressing the Knowledge that the Son of God revealed to him directly?   Which means that Giordano Bruno -- as was the case of countless other Spiritual Christians -- was persecuted because he attempted to present to the people important esoteric truths that they must know to bring about the fulfillment of the Gospel Objectives within them.   Thus, this reality is portrayed in the words: "These things I have spoken to you, that you may be kept from stumbling.  They will make you outcasts from the synagogue, but an hour is coming for everyone who kills you to think that he is offering service to God" (John 16:1-2 NAS).   The adherents of Spiritual Religion are Gnostics, because they utilize the Key of Knowledge to gain access into the inner Kingdom, and learn from the One Teacher which has traditionally been called the Logos/Son of God (see Logos).     In contradistinction, the counterfeit religious leaders who have thrown away the Key of Knowledge, always portray themselves as Orthodox.   At the founding of the United States, many who walked the more spiritual path of the Gnostics were known as Deists -- and some were associated with the Masons.   

It is import to understand that the guarantees of First Amendment God-Given Rights that is the cornerstone foundation of the Constitution of the United States, is from the side of the Deists and Masons -- and one of its primary objectives was to insure freedom of thought from mainstream faith-based religions -- i.e., Fundamentalist Christianity.    Among the U.S. founding fathers, John Adams, John Quincy Adams, Ethan Allen, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, Thomas Paine, and George Washington were all Deists.

While the Masons were an esoteric order that had members in all religions and governments, the Deists were those who stated that God is the most Rational Force in Creation -- and God can only be found with the expansion and development of the Rational Mind.   In contradistinction, traditional faith-based religion is one of blind and unquestioning belief in the dogma of the Church -- as portrayed in the words of Martin Luther: “Reason, is the greatest enemy that faith has; it never comes to the aid of spiritual things, but - more frequently than not - struggles against the divine Word, treating with contempt all that emanates from God” (Quoted in: The Great Thoughts; compiled by George Seldes).    Why did Luther condemn the rational powers of perception and interpretation of the mind of man?    Luther embraced many of the same tenets and grave misunderstandings of the biblical doctrine of predestination as did Calvin -- and Thomas Jefferson is quoted as saying of Calvinism: "His [Calvin's] religion was demonism. If ever man worshiped a false God, he did. The being described in his five points is ... a demon of malignant spirit. It would be more pardonable to believe in no God at all, than to blaspheme him by the atrocious attributes of Calvin" (Works, Vol. iv., p. 363).   In the foregoing chapter/subheading entitled, The Books With The Power To Deceive, I demonstrate that the Apostle Peter basically stated the same position that Jefferson did.   

Faith-based religion rejects the God-Given Gift of Reason, because their own ignorance pertaining to the true nature and objectives of both the scriptures and God, which causes them to embrace what Peter portrays as "unworthy beliefs about God" -- causing them to believe grave error -- or, in the words of Jesus directed at those who have thrown away the Key of Knowledge: "You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God" (Matt 22:29 NKJ).   In a Spiritual Religion, God is understood to be the most Rational Force in Creation -- and it is the purpose of religion to bring about the necessary "...heightening and enlargement of human consciousness” that enables man to enter the Presence of what Jesus portrayed as the One Teacher (see True Prophet), and learn directly from God (see below).    It was impossible for Luther and Calvin to understand the biblical doctrine of predestination, because a Roman Emperor has forbid and condemned the teaching of Jesus on the journey of the soul (see  The Pre-Existent Soul).    And herein lies an even greater problem from a modern perspective which is seen in the fact that the people who presently portray themselves as Deists, fail to understand the very spiritual core of Deism -- and thus, the essence of Reason itself.   The modern Atheists perceive themselves to be totally led by reason and intellect -- and yet, their understanding of God, religion and the world is so radically different from that of the historical Deists who founded our Nation, that it can easily be demonstrated that reason alone is a spiritually bankrupt path.   Thus, reason without the necessary "...heightening and enlargement of human consciousness”, is in and of itself a dead-ended path.     

It is important to understand Deism because of its rejection of the European ideas of church and state -- and in total opposition, it's proclamation that man is imbued with God-Given UnAlienable Rights that are beyond the reach of government to in any manner suppress or inhibit.    It is easily demonstrated that the Epistles in the New Testament were corrupted with interpolations in order to make Christians in subjection to Rome (see Interpolations) -- and these same interpolations were later used by the governments of Europe to promote political rulership of the Church.   The king of England was declared the vicar of God -- and deemed infallible -- even before this doctrine of infallibility was bestowed upon the pope.   And when properly understood, it is this relationship between church and state which caused the Christian world to be reduced to a condition of spiritual complacency.    Deism, on the other hand, not only rejects the whole concept of government ordained religion -- promoting the separation of church and state -- but lays the foundation for the concept that the highest obligation of government is to protect the God-Given Rights of the individual.  

Deism is defined as "...a religious and philosophical belief that a supreme god created the universe, and that this and other religious truth can be determined using reason and observation of the natural world alone" (see Deism) -- and this revelation through the use of reason and observation was based upon the original objective of the teachings of Jesus as portrayed in the quotation from the Encyclopedia Britannica under the heading, The History of Christian Mysticism, where it reads: “Although the essence of mysticism is the sense of contact with the transcendent, mysticism in the history of Christianity should not be understood merely in terms of special ecstatic experiences but as part of a religious process lived out within the context of the Christian community. From this perspective mysticism played a vital part in the early church. Early Christianity was a religion of the spirit that expressed itself in the heightening and enlargement of human consciousness” -- i.e., the focused objective is presented in the words "...the heightening and enlargement of human consciousness”.   If all that was necessary was the use of human reasoning to understand what the Deist's stated was the work of Creator-God in the forming of the universe, then there would be no such thing as Atheists who reject the whole concept of a Creator.   And if we inquire as to what made the reasoning of a Deist who embraced a Creator-God, very different than the reasoning of an Atheist who totally rejects the whole concept of a Deity, the answer is found in the elevated and matured reasoning of the Deist who understood the Laws of Creation, in contradistinction to the Atheist whose powers of reasoning and intellect has been flat-lined by their blind ideology.    So the question then becomes: Did the Deists who framed our Constitutional form of government, understand a higher reality of the Laws that is not at all understood by those who claim to be affiliated with Deism today?   

With respect to the Deist assertion that truth can be found "...using reason and observation of the natural world", this is merely conformation of the words of Paul explored in the above when he stated that the Truth of God can be discerned by observing the natural world -- i.e.,  "...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" (Rom 1:19-20 NAS).   That the critics of the Deists fail to understand that they merely confirmed what Paul stated, is conformation of the blindness on the part of the critics.   Modern quantum physics has begun to verify the position of the Mystic that not only is all of Creation imbued with the Divine Pattern -- but that the Divine Pattern is holographically replicated into each of it parts.   And, as I will present at numerous points in this article, the physical is in fact the pattern for the Whole.   And what both Paul and the Deists are expressing, is the fact that if you apply the aspects of the pattern into each successive level of both Creation, and your own mind, soul and spirit, that you will begin to understand the Laws and the Forces at work -- enabling you to not only conquer your own divided nature, but also prevail over these Forces and Laws.   Thus, fulfilling the requirement set forth in the second saying of the Gospel of Thomas: Jesus said, "Let him who seeks continue seeking until he finds. When he finds, he will become troubled. When he becomes troubled, he will be astonished, and he will rule over the All."

Of primary importance is the observation of the Laws that control all aspects of the outer world, because it is these same Laws that holographically exist within the body and mind of each individual person.    Therefore, to begin to understand the forces and Laws that are working in the outer world, it is essential to embark upon the journey of self-discovery through the knowledge of understanding the very forces and Laws of the mind and consciousness of mankind -- i.e., within one's own mind and being.    And thus, the great truth that seems to have escaped the understanding and reasoning of the modern Deist is revealed in the book entitled Fragments of a Faith Forgotten, by G.R.S. Mead, where he explains that what the authors of the scriptures truly “…projected onto the screen… [in the form of a ] picture of the universe was in reality a picture of their own minds."  He then writes of the scriptures: "Its mythology is a symbolic portrayal, almost a deliberate one, of the forces which operate in the structuring and evolution of the human personality”.  It was for this reason that Carl Jung called the Gnostic Christians the worlds first and foremost psychologists who understood the very fabric of human consciousness.   And, when rightly understood with what Jesus called the Key of Knowledge properly applied, the scriptures are about you -- i.e. the Laws and Forces working in your own mind and body -- and they are timeless and relevant to every period in human history.   And it is this higher enlightened understanding of the scriptures and the proper application of the Key of Knowledge that initiated and brought about the personal "revealed revelation" that provided the Deist the necessary supreme reasoning powers that enabled him to understand what Atheists and faith-believers were blind to.

On the surface the modern Deist does not appear to understand the Gnostic roots of Deism -- or the fact that when rightfully understood, the historical man Jesus would be seen as a perfect example of the objectives of Deism.   Quoting the definition of Deism found at http://Deism.com : "Deism is belief in God based on the application of our reason on the designs/laws found throughout Nature. The designs presuppose a Designer. Deism is therefore a natural religion and is not a 'revealed' religion. The natural religion/philosophy of Deism frees those who embrace it from the inconsistencies of superstition and the negativity of fear that are so strongly represented in all of the 'revealed' religions such as Judaism, Christianity and Islam. (These religions are called revealed religions because they all make claim to having received a special revelation from God which they pretend, and many of their sincere followers actually believe, their various and conflicting holy books are based on.)".   When it is recognized that Moses stated that there would be many other men of vision that would prove and confirm all that he stated -- and in the original Gospel accounts, Jesus was a man (see TheTenLies.com ) who fulfilled the Law to become the Anointed (Messiah/Christ) -- and Mohammed was a man who became the prophet -- then the whole of the modern Deist argument against what they portray as a revealed religion comes to naught.   Which means that the bottom line of the equation is that few men make the effort to follow and embrace the path of the prophets of TheWay.   If, in the example of Jesus, he fulfilled the Laws within himself that the modern neo-Deists are merely claiming to observe, then it is perfectly understandable why Jesus who fulfilled the Laws has been personified as a revealer.   And what the Gospels teach is that ANYONE who fulfills the Laws within themselves in the manner that Jesus did, will know and be able to accomplish all that he did.  

In accord with the above definition  found at http://Deism.com, it is demonstrated that at least philosophically, a Deist makes claim to a direct revelation from God that enables the Deist to access a higher perception than that of an Atheist.   A Deist maintains that there is a Creator-God, while the Atheist who is observing the same Laws, rejects the existence of god.   Therefore, unless Deism can demonstrate a basis for its position and substantiate their more enlightened vision and understanding than what is embraced by Atheists who are also reliant upon rational thinking, then Deism itself would have to be classified as merely another made up system of religious belief that has no basis in fact.   Either a single person or a core group of people who called themselves Deists, had to have a personal experience and revelation that enabled them to perceive and understand what the reasoning of an Atheist fails to reveal to them, or Deism itself would have to be classified as a fraud.   Further, the claim to this elevated experiential insight and knowledge is either the result of core Deist's gaining access to this higher vision that has enlightened them -- and this enlightened understanding has enabled them to state that the God of what they portray as revealed religions is false -- and that would substantiate the claim that Deism itself has provided the foundation of an elevated and mature power of reason and intellect that the vast majority of mankind is simply not privy to.    Moreover, to substantiate the position that Creator-God remains in the background while the Natural Laws that were created in the beginning are guiding mankind to his Divine Destiny, there would have had to be someone among the original Deists who overcame the barrier between this world and that of the Kingdom, would have had to bridge the divide and become enlightened to this plight which immerses the human condition to a state of blind ignorance.    If rational thinking alone could reveal this higher reality that is promoted by Deism, then Atheists would not only believe in Creator-God, but their rational thinking would reveal this higher reality to them.   Which means that either Deism is itself a fraud, or there were core Deists who elevated their rational thinking by virtue of a enlightened vision that revealed this higher reality that Atheists and faith-based believers are blind to.   What this means is if Deism is not itself a fraud, then there had to exist a "revealer[s]" among the core Deists, whose elevated vision and knowledge enabled him to see and understand what was beyond the vision of the rational thought of organic man.  

When core Deists such as Thomas Paine and Jefferson condemned and rejected the personification of God which Christianity had drawn from reading the literal text of the Old Testament scriptures, it was because they were aware of the folly of the written word which Paul portrayed as the "letter that killeth" (see Defeated By The Literal Text) -- and they were themselves privy to the fact that secularized institutionalized (organized) religion is always hostile to the core objectives of the authors of the scriptures, and by necessity the authors of the scriptures use the faith-based community of believers as mules who unknowingly carry a Spiritual Trojan Horse that can be retrieved in order to defeat the counterfeit authorities that control the people through the use of organized religion (see An Inconvenient Truth).   And the core Deists understood that the written text of the scriptures are purely allegorical, because they applied the Key of Knowledge that enabled them to use the scriptures as a catalyst to overcome the Laws, and circumvent the barrier between this world and the inner Kingdom within themselves -- which is the very purpose and objective of the authors of the scriptures who concealed their esoteric knowledge in the manner of a Spiritual Trojan Horse to be used in the future.

On the surface it seems that the modern neo-Deist does not at all appear to understand the reason why the scriptures were written in the allegorical format that they have been, which format I reference above as the Language Of The Soul.    And it is their own failure and inability of modern neo-Deism to explain the insight that they claim provided them with a more elevated power of reasoning -- i.e., an elevated reasoning that enabled them to embrace a higher truth than either their Atheist or faith-based revealed-religion brothers and sisters.    Therefore, in many respects, the modern neo-Deist's inability to explain and understand the inner spiritual meaning of the scriptures -- dismissing them as mere superstitious folly -- is proof that the vast majority of modern Deists are little more than Atheists who champion another unknown Demiurge which they promote over all the other varieties of Demiurges embraced by what they portray as revealed religions.   Why?   It is impossible to advance beyond a rudimentary level of reasoning and human rational thought, without coming to understand both the Language Of The Soul, and why the Key of Knowledge must be applied to the written word of the scriptures to ascertain the true meaning concealed within the body of the Spiritual Trojan Horse embodied in the allegorical text of the written word -- i.e., the "letter that killeth" (see Defeated By The Literal Text).   Once properly understood, the allegory of the scriptures mirrors the allegory of the outer world which are the Thoughts (of God) impressed into the forms of matter -- brought about by the Laws which Deists profess to comprehend -- which man interacts with in order to bring about and manifest what Deists portray as man's Divine Destiny.  

Again, lets closely examine the position of  Deism which embodies the above concepts on a "...Supreme being does not intervene in human affairs or suspend the natural laws of the universe ...assert[ing] that God (or "The Supreme Architect") has a plan for the universe that is not to be altered by intervention in the affairs of human life."   These Laws that were instituted as "...a plan for the universe that is not to be altered by intervention in the affairs of human life", because these Laws not only drive mankind to his Destiny envisioned and ordained by Creator-God, but they accomplish this by maintaining a spiritual bio-feedback environment that perpetually returns to each individual person the fruit of their own ways and actions, and these same Laws advance man in his journey of the soul by immersing him in a world of mental imagery impressed into the forms of matter.   Therefore, once this higher reality is understood, what the scriptures do is reformat the mental imagery in such a way, that when the Key of Knowledge is properly applied, the scriptures act as a catalyst that is used to expand man's organic reasoning and depth of mind to the degree with he is able to move beyond the limitations of man's organic level of consciousness, and perceive and comprehend man's higher soul reality and the Mysteries of the Kingdom of God.   

Does a bio-feedback machine that is perfectly programmed and totally attuned to the condition of the individual person, need intervention to bring about the results for which the system was specifically designed to achieve?   The journey of the soul and the very Will of Creator-God that has imbued the Laws of Nature and all of Creation with the ability to bring about the Design of God, is embodied in the words: This journey which matures, evolves and perfects the prodigal son, is further presented in the words: "For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways, says the LORD.  For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.  For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, and do not return there, but water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater, So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it" (Isa 55:8-11 NKJ).    

Mankind has a Destiny that he cannot escape -- and contrary to what is published by organized religion, there are no shortcuts that exempt a person from fulfilling the above Word of Creator-God who enacted the Laws in the Alpha of Creation.   And because the Truth and the Reality of the Laws is totally inconsistent with carnal man's desire for instant gratification, the authors of the scriptures were forced to preserve and conceal the esoteric knowledge of the Laws within the text of the scriptures.   And if we ask:  Why was the scriptures written in an allegorical CODE that required the application of what Jesus called the Key of Knowledge to discern the true meaning?   The above example of the plight of Giordano Bruno confirms the great truth that is presented in  an  An Inconvenient Truth.   Thus, those who are in denial of the fact that the authors of the scriptures who were condemned as heretics, were forced by the limitations of canal man's blindness to use the body of faith-based believers as a type of mule to preserve the body of concealed truths from the eyes and perception of the Church and organic man.  

What is not understood is the fact that the scriptures are an allegory -- and with the application of what Jesus called the Key of Knowledge -- the inner meaning of the scriptures begins to reveal the "design [of the] laws found throughout Nature" and all of Creation.   With the objective being in understanding the underlying Divine Design, the seeker is then able to expand the "application of ...reason" to fulfill the words of St. Nazianzen and bring about the necessary evolutionary expansion of the mind which makes “...us like God; so that when we have thus become like Himself, God may, to use a bold expression, hold converse with us as Gods, being united to us, and that perhaps to the same extent as He already knows those who are known to Him” (quoted at http://BeingOfLight.com ).    And this ReUnion with Creator-God is portrayed in the return of the prodigal son to the Kingdom of his Father -- which Kingdom is within each of us (see The Gate Of Eden).    And the fact that the Kingdom is equally within each of us, and every member of the human race is equally the offspring of Creator-God -- is the very reason why the Deists proclaimed that "...the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them ...that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness" -- and it is the purpose of government to protect and secure these rights.  

Gnosis, which is the Greek word for Spiritual Knowledge that is not of the earth, can only be grasped and received by those who can embody and overcome "...the designs/laws found throughout Nature" -- successfully expanding the facilities of mind that enables the person to embrace what can only be defined as True Spiritual Reason.    And when properly understood, this is exactly what the historical Jesus himself accomplished, as presented in the words of Hippolytus (an opponent of the original Ebionite Nazirene disciples), when he states of their position that Jesus "...was justified by fulfilling the Law. He was the Christ of God, since not one of the rest of mankind had observed the Law completely. Had any one else fulfilled the commandments of the Law, he would have been the Christ, for they assert that our Lord Himself was a man in like sense with all humanity" (see Hippolytus, Refut. Omn. Haer. vii. 34).   When the Ebionite Nazirenes make reference to the Law, this very much includes the Laws of Creation as portrayed in the above words "...the designs/laws found throughout Nature".    That the historical man Jesus was a pattern for all of mankind because of his success in overcoming the Laws, is demonstrated in the words: "He was the Christ of God, since not one of the rest of mankind had observed the Law completely. Had any one else fulfilled the commandments of the Law, he would have been the Christ..."   And this confirms this statement with respect to the true potential of all of mankind that Jesus taught, as demonstrated in the words of Hippolytus when he wrote that they believed that when anyone "...thus fulfill the law, they are able to become Christs" (Hippolytus, Refut. Omn. Haer. vii. 34 - see http://Ebionite.com ).   And this is why Jesus taught that he was our brother -- i.e., "Go instead to my brothers and tell them, 'I am returning to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God'" (John 20:17 NIV).     

What the author of http://Deism.com does not appear to understand with respect to his statement that Judaism, Christianity and Islam are "revealed" religions, is that because of the corruption of the scriptures, the adherents and believers of these religious traditions don't understand the difference between the revealer, and the Indwelling Logos or Mind of God which will be explored in a forthcoming chapter/subheadings below.   And this is especially demonstrated in the words of Edward Gibbon with respect to the original position of the Ebionite Nazirene disciples of Jesus that he was in “...supernatural union of a man and God... In their eyes, Jesus of Nazareth was a mere mortal, the legitimate son of Joseph and Mary: but he was the best and wisest of the human race, selected as the worthy instrument to restore upon earth the worship of the true and supreme Deity. When he was baptized in the Jordan, the Christ, the first of the aeons, the Son of God himself, descended on Jesus in the form of a dove, to inhabit his mind, and direct his actions during the allotted period of his ministry” (Gibbon; The Decline & Fall of the Roman Empire, V.4, P.366).   

The historical and spiritual factualness of these words can be proven when one understands the original words that were spoken to the man Jesus at his baptism in the Jordan River -- when the Voice of God stated: "Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee" (see The Ten Words).   Which means that the historical man Jesus was a man who became the Messiah/Christ when he overcame the Laws and became Anointed (Messiah/Christ) by God.    That the later Church of Rome which existed as a puppet under the pagan sun worshipping Emperor Constantine, censored and changed the very words of God spoken to mankind, is the primary reason why the Christian world remains shackled to the abyss of spiritual ignorant to this very day.    In the above article it is demonstrated that all the pre-Nicene Christian authors who quoted the baptism sequence in their writings, confirmed that prior to the fourth century editing of the scriptures by Pagan Rome, that the Gospels confirmed that Jesus became the Lord's Anointed (Messiah/Christ) by fulfilling and overcoming the Laws.    Moreover, in addition to the six (6) pre-Nicene Christian authors who are cited in The Ten Words, this fact is further confirmed in the more ancient surviving biblical texts that modern translators continue to ignore to the spiritual pearl of the Christian world today.     Further, while Christians gleefully attempt to point out the prophetic predictions fulfilled by Jesus -- and yet, they ignore the fact that it was predicted that the above Ten Words would be spoken to Jesus -- and that the above Ten Words is attested to by Paul in the Epistles to the Hebrews, and again confirmed in the Book of Acts -- demonstrates conclusively that the modern Church rejects the Jesus of the Gospels, and clings instead to the Jesus of Pagan Rome.   Moreover, that the modern Church continues to reject the very words of God spoken to mankind, in favor of the censored and corrupted words of the fourth century Emperor of Pagan Rome, is the reason why the modern Church which has caused itself to be spiritually flat-lined, only possessing what Paul portrayed as the "elementary" doctrines that the Church Father Origen defined as being “...preached in the Churches …for the simpleminded and for the ears of the common crowd who are led on to live better lives by their belief”  (see Origen, Contra Celsum).    ###@@@   

While I will present additional clarifying statements and documentation after other material is covered in the below , the encyclopedia asserts that "Deism holds that God does not intervene with the functioning of the natural world in any way, allowing it to run according to the laws of nature that he configured when he created all things" (see Deism).   And it is these  "...laws of nature" which the historical Jesus overcame, in order to become the Anointed (Messiah/Christ).    Thus, Creator-God enacted "...the laws of nature that he configured when he created all things" for the express purpose of perfecting the prodigal sons -- and the historical Jesus was the first of the prodigal sons to fulfill the purpose and objective of the Laws that God Created.   In the same way that parents see to the education of their offspring, so too did Creator-God.   And in the same way that parents send their children off to school to learn, the offspring of Creator-God entered God's School House (see DivineStrategery.com in order to bring about the necessary learning process.   And in the same way that a child's education spans a great many months, days and years, it is necessary for the education of the soul of the prodigal son to span many lifetimes in the process of fulfilling the Laws which God "...configured when he created all things [which was[ ...run according to the laws of nature".   And that organic man does not remember his more distant past, is because he dwells in what Jesus portrayed as the "outer darkness" of mind and being (see Outer Darkness), and if he remembered his more distant past it would disrupt and even negate the learning experience that is achieved in each lifetime that the soul lives.

While the average Christian might question why the Deists hold that Creator-God does not directly intervene in the affairs of mankind -- but instead relies upon the Laws "...that he [Creator-God] configured when he created all things" -- when rightly understood, what is being presented in these words is exactly what Jesus portrayed  in the parable of the Prodigal Son -- who, after leaving the Heavenly Kingdom and squandering away his inheritance in this, the Far Country, had to return to the Kingdom of the Father on his own accord.   And while the Father was willing to meet the son after he began his journey homeward, this was not until the son was half-way home in TheWay.   The position that God does not directly intervene in the affairs of man, is seen in the fact that even when the prodigal son suffered and was in great need, the Father at no time moved to help him in his trials.   Thus, it is written: "And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.  And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.   And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.   And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him" (Luke 15:13-16 KJV).    Why did the Father not help the suffering son?    Because the Laws had already been put into place that would not only guarantee the return of the son -- but also, these Laws were enacted to perform the intended objectives of the reality that the Far Country was created to bring about -- i.e., it is these very Laws that were ordained by Creator-God that evolves and perfects the soul of each individual in the manner of a spiritual bio-feedback system through the process of confronting every person with the fruit of their own past actions -- i.e.,  “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows” (Gal 6:7 NIV).   It is the evolution of mind that brings about the necessary "...heightening and enlargement of human consciousness” from the Alpha of ignorance, to the Omega of Enlightenment, that enables the prodigal son to return to the Edenic Kingdom of Origination.   And this innate ability which is in fact an integral part of our Spiritual DNA, is inborn in each of us and brought about by God, our Source of Being, and is an integral part of "...the laws of nature that he configured when he created all things".     And it is important to understand that the core Deists -- like all True Gnostics -- understood the journey of the soul.  

  Deism - The Laws - And The Two Creation Accounts: What has long confused students of the scriptures is what they call the apparent two Creation accounts in the beginning of Genesis.   And this confusion is largely the result of their own misunderstandings.   Both the Gnostics as well as the Deists understood the reason why there appears to be two Creation accounts, as did many of the esoteric orders of Masons and Rosicrucians.   In the first Genesis Creation account when it reads that on the Seventh Day Creator-God rested because all his labors were Complete, that means exactly what it states.   Creator-God did not awaken on the day following the Cosmic Sabbath, and once again begin to labor in the earth.   What was accomplished in the initial Genesis account was the creation of the Laws that would bring the Thoughts (Word) of God from the Alpha of ignorance -- a prevailing ignorance that existed because no experiential knowledge existed -- to the Omega of Absolute Light and Enlightenment as all of Creation was brought to Completion.  

A key biblical statement which explains the movement of the Laws is seen in the words: "For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways, says the LORD.  For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.  For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, and do not return there, but water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater, So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it" (Isa 55:8-11 NKJ).   What both the core Deists knew -- and what is presented in the parable of the prodigal son -- is the reality that all the Laws were put into place in the Alpha of Creation as a Living Bio-Feedback Organism, in order to evolve the All to Completion and Perfection.    The fact that these Laws which were the Works of Creator-God were Perfect, and did not need constant tweaking and fixing, is representative of a Truth that both the Deists, Mystics and the Gnostics understood -- while faith-based believers and their Atheist critics remain perplexed by the apparent conflicting creation accounts in the beginning of Genesis.   Moreover, both the core Deists and the Christian Gnostics understood that in what is allegorically portrayed as the Fall of Man, part of the soul became lost and entangled in the lower worlds which correspond to the lower aspects and realities of mind and being -- and this is why man's mind and being is divided across the spectrum of seven kingdoms.   Man, who is of the fourth kingdom, is the balance between the heavenly and earthly.  

  Allegorical Fall of Man: What is allegorically portrayed as the Fall of Man was not at all due to any fault of our own -- but was a natural exploration of self as both God through our souls, and our souls through us, began to explore the reality of Self.   Thus, a long ignored statement by Paul is seen in the words: "For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God. For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope; because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now" (Rom 8:19-22 NKJ).   Take especial notice of the words:  "...For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it  ...For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now".   In the same way that Jesus stated that unless you bring about the next stage of birth, you cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven -- all of the trials of the prodigal son in this, the Far Country, is the process of birth that was brought upon mankind by the Laws that Creator-God put into action in what is allegorically portrayed as the Seven Days of Creation.   In the beginning Gnosis did not exist, because no experiential knowledge existed -- and part of us became lost in the lower worlds in an attempt to begin to know self -- and God is Knowing Self through our higher soul-selves -- and our higher soul-selves is coming to know self through us.

In the beginning all souls existed as sparks of the Divine.   In what I portray as the realm of souls, each individual soul would be perceived as weak flickering light.   Quoting The Universal Jewish Encyclopedia under the heading of Souls, Transmigration of: “The doctrine of transmigration of souls, which was especially accepted by the Karaites… is generally attacked by Jewish philosophers, but is defended by Isaac Abravanel and Manasseh ben Israel. It appears often in Cabala; it is found in organized form in the Zohar, it is further developed in the teachings of Isaac Luria (1534-1572), and in Hasidism it becomes a universal belief. According to these teachings, all human souls have a common origin in the spiritual unity of the primordial man, sparks of which form the individual souls... The sin of Adam brought higher and lower souls into confusion; as a result, every soul has to pass through a series of incarnations... The soul itself has no sex, which is determined by the body and may vary from incarnation to incarnation”.    Thus, the pre-existent soul of man which are portrayed as "..sparks of which form the individual souls... are in fact the Beings of Light (see http://BringOfLight.com ) encountered by some in a Near Death Experience -- and it is this Being of Light that is each person's true form and self.   Moreover, in our natural state we are a Being of Light -- and our body-vessel which we inhabit in this world, is merely an allegorical projection of mind and spirit into the image of the body.   That the journey of the soul over the course of many lifetimes was an integral part of the teachings of Jesus and TheWay -- and was removed by the Roman Emperors who ruled over the doctrines of the Church -- is demonstrated conclusively in The Ten Reasons Why The Church Rejects The Teaching On The Pre-Existent Soul.

In the allegorical account of Genesis, Adam is not a person -- the word Adam simply means man -- and like the parable of the prodigal son, is representative of the universal pattern and reality of all of mankind.  The idea of what is presented in the written text as the sin of Adam, is what is portrayed allegorically -- but the Fall was forced upon all souls as stated at Rom 8:19-22.   And this Fall was brought about because of the lack of Gnosis, or experiential knowledge.  But what is important to understand is that because of the state of inner division, part of the soul became lost in the lower kingdoms -- and as they began to experience independently, they took on a life of their own.   How could this happen?  Because each fragment is a holographic pattern of the whole -- which means that each fragment not only has the parts necessary to be independently conscious -- but at one level, is very much independently consciousness.

Again, the above words in Isaiah: "...So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it".    The Deists who understood the Laws, understood that Creator-God did not involve himself in the process that has been brought forth in the development of man in this world -- because Creator-God's labor was perfect and complete.    When an ovum is fertilized in the womb, it does not have to be re-fertilized at various points of development -- because the development of the embryo into a fetus, infant, adolescent and adult, is all brought about by the Laws.   Creator-God did not have to constantly tweak the Laws that were already perfect after His Labors were Perfect and Completed -- and this is why it in the parable that Jesus taught, it was the prodigal son who had to return to the Kingdom of the Father, rather than the Father having to come and get him in his trials and tribulations -- tribulations which Paul portrayed as the natural process of birth being brought forth by the Laws, as demonstrated in the above words: "...For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now"

  Spiritual Sabbath: Does the Gospels supply an answer to the Christian dilemma?   Paul writes that the Sabbath celebrated by the Jews is an allegorical representation of the Sabbath, as seen in his words that it is a "...shadow of things to come" (Col 2:17 KJV).   The Gospels are spiritual writings -- and they often intentionally conflict with what would be understood from a literal or historical perspective, in order to force the reader to seek the spiritual meaning.   The prediction was that the Son of Man would be three days in the tomb -- and yet, if you count the days as reported in the scriptures, they are two.   And this is because the Christians who read the scriptures in the manner of the Pharisees who threw away the Key of Knowledge, not only do not understand the spiritual meaning of the three days, but they further do not understand the portrayal of a Sabbath following the Passover.  They therefore attempt to doctrinally force the interpretation the following day after the Sabbath as the first day of the week -- or for those who worship the sun-god in the manner of the pagan Christians, Sunday.    On the other hand, the Greek word used to describe the day of the supposed resurrection, is mia ton sabbaton -- or, if literally translated, "one of the Sabbaths".    But the conflict over the day of the week is seen in the Christians inability to understand what is meant by "one of the Sabbaths" -- which is exactly how the Greek text reads.   And the grave misunderstanding of most Bible readers is seen when they fail to perceive that the allegorical symbol of the Sabbath is not the actual Sabbath that is the objective of the scriptures which is portrayed in the biblical term "one of the Sabbaths".
