from Jesus:
The answer to your first
question is found in this quote:
But Jesus beheld
them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God
all things are possible. (Matthew 19:26)
In other words, human beings
alone cannot save the Catholic Church; only the power of God can save
the Catholic Church. However, the power of God can work only through
human beings. Therefore, the simple fact is that the Catholic Church
can be saved only if a critical mass of Catholics open themselves up
to my inner teachings, attain a critical degree of Christhood and therefore
become the open doors for the power of God to change the Catholic Church
through them.
Saving the Church means renewing the church, and this can happen only
through progressive revelation from myself and Mother Mary. In fact,
history clearly proves that without progressive revelation, any church
starts calcifying, and within a surprisingly short period of time, it
can become so rigid that it is no longer a vehicle for the Ascended
Host. Will Catholics be willing to open their minds and hearts? I simply
cannot answer that question because how can anyone predict what people
will do with their free will?
I actually did try to change the Pharisees and the other leaders of
the Jewish religion. That is why I challenged them over and over again
in an attempt to shatter their illusions and demonstrate to them that
God had sent another prophet to call them to change. Obviously, I was
not successful in helping them see beyond their illusions, so they refused
to change. Consequently, I had no option left but to call my own out
of the corrupt religion whose leaders were not willing to relinquish
their power to the power of God. This is a pattern you see in many religions
throughout history and even today.
The leaders of a particular religion are often the last people to acknowledge
the need for that religion to change. They will not acknowledge this
because change is seen as a threat to their positions of power and their
control over “their” followers. They are more concerned
about their own positions of power than about the truth of God.
15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's
clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns,
or figs of thistles? (Matthew, Chapter 7)
Obviously, almost any religion
could be changed if a critical mass of the members of that religion
stood up and demanded change. The problem is that most religious organizations
are structured in such a way that this is an unlikely event. In most
religions, the leadership has almost absolute power, and there is little
room for the membership to speak out. Consequently, the members of most
religions have been programmed to simply follow the leaders instead
of speaking out.
So when it becomes clear that a particular religion has calcified in
this age-old pattern of blind leaders and blind followers, the Ascended
Host have no other option than to call out those who are not the blind
followers but who are not sufficient in numbers to create change in
their organization. These are the ones who are willing to follow the
call:
Let them alone:
they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind,
both shall fall into the ditch. (Matthew 15:14)
That is why you so often
see us call out the awakened members of an old religion and start a
new movement in its place. In essence, this website is my attempt to
call out those from mainstream Christianity who are no longer the blind
followers and who have seen through the fallacy of their blind leaders.
So yes, I am indeed doing that again. The Ascended Host are constantly
calling out those who have reached the level of soul maturity that makes
them look to the living truth of God instead of an outer doctrine or
organization that appears beautiful on the outside but is inwardly filled
with dead men's bones (Matthew 23:27).
How do you know whether you are one of the called-out ones? You can
know so only in your heart, because only your Christ self, speaking
to you in your heart, can be reveal truth to you. Listen to the following
Bible passage:
15 He saith unto
them, But whom say ye that I am?
16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son
of the living God.
17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona:
for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father
which is in heaven. (Matthew, Chapter 16)
As I said to Peter, the flesh
and blood of your outer mind cannot reveal to you the Presence of the
Living Christ and the Living Truth. This can happen only through your
Christ self. Yet if you are open to the teachings on this website, have
you not already opened yourself to the Living Truth of God? So have
you not already realized that I am calling you out?
Finally, let me say that God has assigned me to hold the spiritual office
of Savior for all of humankind. It is the assignment of my office to
save all souls on Earth, within the context of the Law or Free Will.
It is my assignment to save all souls, not just the members of one particular
religion. And it is not my job to make all people the members of one
particular religion. It is my job to raise all people to the level of
the Christ consciousness, which is the only key to entering the kingdom
of heaven.
In other words, I am concerned about saving individual souls, and I
am not concerned about saving this or that church. Look at how many
religions have been ground to dust by history. If a religion will not
change, it will inevitably die. So those leaders who seek to save their
power will lose that power (Matthew 16:25). Only those who are willing
to give up their power for my sake – for the sake of finding the
Living Truth – will be given the true power of the Christ consciousness.
When you attain the Christ consciousness, you realize that you are a
son or daughter of God. It is this sense of identity that gives you
access to the kingdom of Heaven. You cannot enter the kingdom as long
as you identify yourself with any man-made label. In other words, if
you see yourself as a Catholic, you cannot enter the kingdom of Heaven.
Even if you see yourself as a Christian, you cannot enter the kingdom
of Heaven. Yet if you see yourself as a Christ, you can indeed enter
the kingdom. If you see yourself as a Buddhist you cannot enter the
kingdom, but if you see yourself as a Buddha you can indeed enter. Or
rather, when you see yourself as the Christ or the Buddha, you are already
in the kingdom of Heaven.
To enter the kingdom of Heaven, you must let go of the flesh and blood
of your earthly sense of identity. Therefore, you must let go of all
tendency to identify yourself as the member of a particular religion,
and you must identify yourself as a member of the universal body of
God, as Above so below. This is the true Body of Christ, and I am calling
all people to join it.
