Do not apply literalism to scripture

Quote--->The only concern of scripture is your mental and spiritual wellbeing. It has no concern with the physical world or how we handle our affairs. If your spiritual and mental affairs are in order the rest of your life will follow suit.

MARRIAGE - A symbol of the union of Wisdom (fem.) and Love (masc.), or of Truth (masc.) and Love (fem.), or in a lower sense, of mind (man, Adam) and emotion (woman, Eve). It also may mean the union of the Higher Self (masc.) with the purified lower Self (fem.) on the higher mental plane.

DIVORCING A WIFE AND MARRYING ANOTHER WOMAN - The "wife" is a symbol of the emotions allied with the mind. The seeking to sunder the union of mind and emotion is an attempt to transgress the law of the soul's progression, and form an alliance with lower attractions-folly. See PROV. Vii.

A man shall not marry a man simply means the higher mind should not attempt to merge with or become one with the lower mind. It has literally nothing to do with actual people and marriage. In biblical symbolism marriage, eating, and sex pretty much all mean the same thing. It is a blending, consuming, or union with two aspects of something. We are most familiar with the marriage between our carnal mind and our emotions. Our mind (male) can be married to our emotions (fem), or it can be married to our spirit (fem).

FOOD - A symbol of Truth-the Real, which gradually takes the place of Illusion -the unreal. The lower soul-states change and vanish as Truth is assimilated.

Again do not literalize scripture. Food is just a symbol for that which brings growth to the spirit.

Do not eat pork. - Pigs are creatures which like to wallow in the mud. In mysticism the earth, dirt, or mud represents the lower mind or carnal mind. Do not eat pork is saying do not consume (take into your being) that which wallows in the realm of the lower mind. This is the same reason God did not like the offering of Cain as Cain was a tiller of the earth (lower mind). The only thing Cain, the first-born produces is what comes out of the lower mind. Abel was the keeper of the sheep. Sheep walk on or are above the earth, the lower mind.

In Genesis God created the heavens and earth... The higher and lower mind. Genesis is about the creation of our mind not the planet. Brining any literalization to scripture kills the message.

The wanting to become is stagnation. The "being now" is Life!"

Like the Sun

Hello Brother ...... Yes Bless the Light that is Our Life and as that Life we are one with LOVE. Sooooooooo quiet hmmmmmmm yes you can say that. It is hard to put into words what Light is reminding me of. Lets look at Samson. First off the name Samson = "like the sun" Brother to be like the sun is to be one with the Light which is Life and Life is LOVE. As I dig in deeper the name Samson = "to be brilliant" W0W .... Brother Samson was one from birth that was full of wisdom (Truth). Samson is an example for us to see and understand. Just to jump forward--->For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. John 1:17 Brother TRUTH is within us we just forgot. Even the Spirit of truth ; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth ...

Life is IN the Blood

All GLOW-RAY unto Our Life which is seen by the Light and that Life is LOVE! Religion ...... In my journey the many I've talked to concerning Life .... MOST .... don't read the bible, or even know what their religious group teaches. They just believe that maybe one day they will go to that wonderful mansion in the sky and live next door to Jesus! I've sat with street ministers that could not quote the bible Truth. They just bark religious teachings and hold them higher than Truth. Ohhhhhhhhhh trust me .... I was there .... a fool always 'pleading the blood.' One day Source asked me "Why do you plead the blood ... Does it dry up? Is there some magical power in the blood?" I had no answer .... I waited on the Truth and over time, outside of religious teachings, I saw the Truth (Light). See, when I was in religion I h...

Philadelphia 6

"... Behold, I come quickly..." ALL GLOW-RAY unto Our Light which shoes us Our true Life and being one with that Life we are LOVE. Yes, I know in the religious world the teaching of a 'rapture/2nd coming' Ohhhhhhh yes I worked at trying to figure out if a pre, mid, post-trib .... I will tell you that in all of that time the Christ within was truly coming quickly. When one turns from without that one will quickly become the Truth of who they are! For that one that has turned IN (repent) is the one that must "... hold that fast which thou hast..." The I will NOT want the Truth and its natural tendencies is to take what is Truth and twist it into a belief ... A lie that will make you a servant to a lie rather than the Truth of who you are! Surrounded by many today that act as though the flesh is their life. When in Truth they who are fleshy minded are but dead and they that know the Truth, the only source for their L...
