It is the stress of living in the 21st
Century without the direction and unconditional love that comes from those who
love you in the Spirit Realms that which religions call Heaven, but don’t
understand why!
It is often said that in religious terms,
it is the abode of God and the angels and where the clergy believe that they
are going when they die, as they have followed the rules of their institution.
Nobody is fit to go
directly to meet God after they die as they are clearly misinformed about
procedures. The word God comes from the
early understanding that everything that is good comes from the Creator of us
and everything else.
In the earliest of
days when Mankind was simple, this Divine Being was portrayed as an elderly man
sitting on a throne sorting the sheep from the goats, as it were, when the
souls arrived after passing from this earth plane.
Symbolically, the sheep were those who had led
a good life according to the rules of the Church. The goats were those who had lived for
themselves and had simply taken what they wanted regardless of anybody else’s
needs.
In the 21st
Century it is difficult to see this actuality, as without understanding the
creation of ourselves, how can we understand the Higher Intelligence who made
us and our soul interest in becoming at one with Him in time.
Our physical bodies
are well enough understood, as they are on loan to us for our time on this
earth plane and will have a finite duration according to how well we look after
them. They are the natural product of a
union between a male and a female and this is well understood.
However, within the
physical is placed the Spirit of Life, which is everlasting and created with
unconditional love. That creation is a
part of the Great Creator and is, if you like, a little bit of God himself.
That creation
continues after the physical body breaks down and the brain and the organs
cease to function and this is called death.
The physical decays and is recycled naturally, as matter cannot be
created or destroyed – it simply is in different forms.
Just before the body
ceases to function the spirit or soul is released and goes to the place that it
has deserved, according to its measuring up to Spiritual Law, which is the
Divine rulebook that we all try and live by.
No being has led a
perfect life and there are always mistakes and errors of judgement that we have
made in our pursuit of the joy and happiness that we thought we needed during
this life without considering the effect that our behaviour had on others.
Not everybody
listens to their conscience, which is the balancing factor within ourselves
that tells us the difference between right and wrong and how we are guided to
do the better or greater thing for others rather than simply for ourselves.
We all have been
given by our Creator freewill to decide what we want to do and that means
listening and being guided by our conscience or turning away and ignoring it,
thus pursuing our own agenda in life and ignoring what our Creator stands for in
there.
This little voice of
guidance is the voice of the Creator, who can be found and followed in the
quietness of our own soul and is the reason why we came to this earth plane in
the first place.
Our soul came into
an earthly body in order to accomplish certain criteria for the greater good of
humanity and therefore we will have succeeded or failed according to our
conscience, which is our Creator’s direction for us to follow.
We will not be
accepted until we have completed those tasks and, if we have failed to do them
on this earth plane, we will have to do them from the Spirit Realms beyond this
little globe of physical activity.
There are very few
second chances and it is unlikely that you will be given the opportunity to
come down and try again. Only those who
were stopped by an accident unseen may be offered another life.
After we leave this
earth, we must make good on our thoughts and deeds and work with others, who
have more experience, to accomplish our deeds and put right our mistakes and
errors.
This is done using
the facilities of communication that is best understood by the spirit, who has
passed and the soul that is sensitive to be guided in their daily work of
helping others on this plane of existence.
There is no quick
and certain route from this earthly death to the Godhead, as High Church
theology expects, because it has to be earned over the eternity that our soul is
made to last and then finally we can become one with God.
Then we can return the purity of what he
gave us, which is now free from the contamination of our mistakes. Here in the 21st Century, it is
harder to get it right, because we are so busy and tired though pursuits that
are only necessary in earthly terms.
In these pursuits
too many souls have stopped listening to their conscience and have therefore
turned their back on their Creator and it will be a long and tiring journey
back to Him through all eternity.
