Can you hear me now...Good

Fore the mouths of fools will speak death into reality

John Lennon (Singer):

Some years before, during his interview with an American Magazine, he said:

"Christianity will end, it will disappear. I do not have to argue about that. I am certain. Jesus was okay, but his subjects were too simple. Today we are more famous than Him" (1966).

Lennon, after saying that the Beatles were more famous than Jesus Christ, was shot six times.

Tancredo Neves (President of Brazil):

During the Presidential campaign, he said if he got 500,000 votes from his party, not even God would remove him from Presidency.

Sure he got the votes, but he got sick a day before being made President, then he died.

Cazuza (Bi-sexual Brazilian composer, singer and poet):

During A show in Canecio ( Rio De Janeiro), while smoking his cigar, he puffed out some smoke into the air and said: "God, that's for you."

He died at the age of 32 of AIDS in a horrible manner.

Thomas Andrews (the man who built the Titanic):

After the construction of Titanic, a reporter asked him how safe the Titanic would be.

With an ironic tone he said: "Not even God can sink it"

The result: Iceberg-straight ahead.

Norma-Jeane Mortenson (Actress):

She was visited by Billy Graham during a presentation at a show. He said the Spirit of God had sent him to preach to her. After hearing what the Preacher had to say, she said: "I don't need your Jesus".

A week later, she was found dead in the bedroom of her Brentwood home.

Bon Scott (Singer):

The ex-vocalist of the AC/DC. On one of his 1979 songs he sang:

"Don't stop me, I'm going down all the way, down the highway to hell".

On the 19th of February 1980, Bon Scott was found dead from choking on his own vomit.

Campinas 2005:

In Campinas, Brazil a group of friends, drunk, went to pick up a friend. The mother accompanied her to the car and was so worried about the drunkenness of her friends and she said to the daughter holding her hand, who was already seated in the car:

"My Daughter, Go With God And May He Protect You.."

She responded: "Only if He (God) travels in the trunk, cause inside here, it's already full."

Hours later, news came by that they had been involved in a fatal accident, everyone had died,

the car could not be recognized what type of car it had been, but surprisingly, the trunk was intact.

The police said there was no way the trunk could have remained intact. To their surprise, inside the trunk was a crate of eggs, none were broken .

Christine Hewitt (Jamaican Journalist and entertainer):

Said that the Bible (Word of God) was the worst book ever written.

In June 2006 she was found burnt beyond recognition in her motor vehicle .

This is a popular post on the Internet and while it may be mainly an argument for the spiritual or religious, it really feeds the curiosity to question, is there more beyond what we see? Is there more beyond what we think? And more importantly, is there more beyond life than what we imagine?

I think another great line from pop-culture is from the film, A Few Good Men, we all know it, "He is dead because he had no honor. And God was watching." Can we literally speak life and death into reality? Thinking deeper, can we dream about someone living or dying and bring that upon them? If so, then the same is true for things a bit more positive such as love, money and career. After all, there is another popular study out there called the law of attraction. Either way, it starts with the thought, it is given fuel by the word and then engulfed into flames by the action. This is how creation works. From concept to reality. Beginning to end.

God's Calling-it's for You

So, how can we know if a dream about an angel is a real angelic appearance?

Here are some guidelines I have developed as a result of my study of the Bible, my postgraduate work in dreams at the Yale Divinity School, and my talks with people about their experiences.

The result of the dream will draw attention to God more than the angel. Angels are God’s messengers and their purpose is always to bring glory to God, not to themselves.
The dreams usually leave a person with feelings of awe and wonder and that God is loving. This is true even when the angel appears to a person who is rebelling against God and is deep in sin. The angel may appear to judge and to scare a person straight. Often, when this occurs, the angel does not even give a message in words, but the experience of God’s presence is shattering and life-transforming and points to a God who cares deeply.
Is this dream sensible or illogical? We need to use common sense. While a dream or a vision may come from God and be a positive life-changing event, the dream may also come from images buried in our subconscious. God does not send his angels to tell us silly or terrible things. It is always wise to share your experience with a trusted member of your faith community. Sharing with another person helps us evaluate the authenticity of what may be an angelic encounter.
Does this dream contradict what is taught in the Bible? God does not contradict himself. See my past column: Good Angels, Bad Angels.
Does this encounter leave you more renewed and more resolved to serve God? If is the encounter is genuine it will move you to love God more deeply and to live out your faith more consistently.

Perspective

Derek Speed wrote: (2008)

Man will destroy this planet long before any "death star" will. Pay attention, firstly it has been proven in a Supreme Court in the United States that there is no such thing as intelligent design by "god". Secondly, it will be the philosophies of religion that destroy the earth. Two thousand years ago, someone named Moses wrote what's called the Ten Commandments, one of those Commandments was "Thou Shalt not Kill". That philosophy makes human life, more valuable than the planet that sustains it. According to experts, there was 1 billion people on this planet two thousand years ago. If no humans killed any humans for the last two thousand years like the bible suggest, what would the current human population of this planet be right now? Keep in mind, the human population has doubled in the last forty years from 3 billion to 6 billion. Take out a pencil and piece of paper, now draw a circle, with another circle around the outside of the circle you just drew. Make it look like a cell and a nucleus. Now think of how a virus works, a virus or parasite like the Ebola Virus. If one of these parasites invade one of our cells, it will do nothing but consume and reproduce, just like the human animal in the "thou shalt not kill" world. Think of planet earth as a cell in our bodies, the earth is the atom and the ozone is the nucleus that protects it. The human animal does nothing but consume and reproduce, because we are not permitted to kill or conflict with each other, it's against "gods" law.
What happens to a cell when its totally consumed by a virus or a parasite, well, it dies. We the human race in the "thou shalt not kill" world will kill our cell or planet. I want you to think of those four words uttered 2 thousand years ago, and then go pick up a dictionary and look up the word Ironic. Why is everything round, bubbles, the earth, the atom, our cells, even our orbit, well it's simple really, the circle is the most efficient shape, the circle of life doesn't start at ocean plankton and end at the lion. We, the human race walk this planet with infinite complacency, convinced of our superiority over it, that way of thinking is going to get us all killed.

The End of the Earth

End of the Earth Postponed

Buzz up!

It's a good news/bad news situation for believers in the 2012 Mayan apocalypse. The good news is that the Mayan "Long Count" calendar may not end on Dec. 21, 2012 (and, by extension, the world may not end along with it). The bad news for prophecy believers? If the calendar doesn't end in December 2012, no one knows when it actually will — or if it has already. A new critique, published as a chapter in the new textbook "Calendars and Years II: Astronomy and Time in the Ancient and Medieval World" (Oxbow Books, 2010), argues that the accepted conversions of dates from Mayan to the modern calendar may be off by as much as 50 or 100 years. That would throw the supposed and overhyped 2012 apocalypse off by decades and cast into doubt the dates of historical Mayan events. (The doomsday worries are based on the fact that the Mayan calendar ends in 2012, much as our year ends on Dec. 31.)

The Mayan calendar was converted to today's Gregorian calendar using a calculation called the GMT constant, named for the last initials of three early Mayanist researchers. Much of the work emphasized dates recovered from colonial documents that were written in the Mayan language in the Latin alphabet, according to the chapter's author, Gerardo Aldana, University of California, Santa Barbara professor of Chicana and Chicano Studies.

Later, the GMT constant was bolstered by American linguist and anthropologist Floyd Lounsbury, who used data in the Dresden Codex Venus Table, a Mayan calendar and almanac that charts dates relative to the movements of Venus. "He took the position that his work removed the last obstacle to fully accepting the GMT constant," Aldana said in a statement. "Others took his work even further, suggesting that he had proven the GMT constant to be correct."

But according to Aldana, Lounsbury's evidence is far from irrefutable. "If the Venus Table cannot be used to prove the GMT as Lounsbury suggests, its acceptance depends on the reliability of the corroborating data," he said. That historical data, he said, is less reliable than the Table itself, causing the argument for the GMT constant to fall "like a stack of cards." Aldana doesn't have any answers as to what the correct calendar conversion might be, preferring to focus on why the current interpretation may be wrong. Looks like end-of-the-world theorists may need to find another ancient calendar on which to pin their apocalyptic hopes.

Awakening Your Third Eye

The God Gene

DNA Activation

So, why dreams?

It is the greatest communicator known to human kind. History proves creation from a 3-part source made up of a mind, body and most importantly-a spirit, which is the "image" of an alien being of superior intelligence. Remember what I said before, that same creation that claims the credit for the design of the new human being was also a creation of that 3-part source. With that being said, it is clear that whatever the Source makes, the Others emulate. This gives both of them direct access to your mind whenever they choose. We search for knowledge and we hunt for the truth outside ourselves. When all the while, the answer is inside us. Lucid dreaming is power. It has the power to change us, which gives us the ability to change the world. Not everyone can remember their dreams. But for those who can, this is your golden ticket into paradise. From the moment the mind is molded in the womb, to the point of eventual death: we will dream. And that ability is the most powerful signal of contact between us and "them". Until the day we cease to exist in this fashion, we will be visited in our dreams on countless occasions throughout our lifetime. As for the knowledge and information we gain from them, it is up to us to do decide what to do with it.

The truth is evident that we are indeed made in "their" image and by definition we are the only earthbound beings in modern time that possess a soul. It is literally part of our DNA. Animals have the ability to dream. Animals are also very much in tune with the seen and unseen forces of nature. But contrary to popular belief they do not have souls. Every upright creature up to the point of modern man, shared likenesses and similarities, but none since the birth of this planet; had a soul. The soul is a result of genetic manipulation. The soul gives us dominion of this earth and separates our intellect from all other species. To see the soul in all its glory, open your third eye. The key to the soul is the Pineal Gland. Neanderthals did not have it; but you do--by purpose and design.

It is here that all delight, inspiration, and enchantment is given life. For what it's worth, you are born into this world already knowing everything you need to know. It is mapped to your DNA at conception. So what's the catch? The catch is being able to know the difference between positive healthy influence and negative hurtful influence. This is the core of Free Will. You must learn to know the difference. And you must choose.

The Connection

The main connection between two entities is the mind. No matter what you call them or how you interpret them, dreams are gateways to the soul and we are all relatively vulnerable to internal and external influence on some level or another. It is only fitting that this is the best method of communication for a creation that does not have a physical, tangible body to move or speak with freely. Furthermore, intellect plays a large role here. To communicate, the speaker assumes the listener has the ability to decipher input with logic. In short, another form of being will not attempt to communicate with a human being unless it knows that it is able to get a response of some fashion; mental, physical, emotional or spiritual.

Contrary to modern belief, demons and aliens are NOT the same thing. A demon is shapeless, intangible, and is a being of pure energy. It does not have physical form. To argue that demons were not a creation of the same Creator that created humans is inane. All creatures born from another, made from the same Source, traced back to its origin, always leads to the same point of creation. Look at it this way. If you were born of your mother and father, your child born of you and your mate, their children born of them and their mate, for the offspring to claim your mother and father are not their great-great grandparents is both ridiculous and completely false. You are all family-you are all one in some way or another. Demons come from fallen Seraphs. Fallen Seraphs come from God.

An alien on the other hand, is literally by definition, a physical being that is not of this earth. You are an "earthling"- a tangible, physical being of this planet. The use of the word 'alien' is appropriate to describe another physical being that is a foreigner - an outsider - a visitor to your planet. Now as for the creation of their species, again you must follow the bloodline. One source of life for all things known and unknown. Countless number of galaxies that support life, spread so far apart from each other that one does not know or even realize the other exists. That same infinite being that created them, was created by the same God that created angels. So no matter how to slice it, all of you were originally created by the same Source.

Alien Influence: A Reality

It works like this. The year is 2000 B.C.E. You show up in ancient Egypt in your modern car, modern clothes, and all your modern technology: cell phone, lap top, etc. How do you think the natives of that culture will see you?

You didn't just appear there from thin air either. You arrived in style. In an Airbus A-380 Jumbo Jet large enough to hold a Vegas casino in it.

You share your information with the King and his people and take them aboard your airship. After all, you come in peace to explore and learn of the ancient world. You mean no harm.

You gain the trust of the leader and the people and leave behind information they can use for their present world. In return, they are forever grateful and YOU BECOME A GOD.

Now you and everyone on board are considered to be 'not of this world.' You are seen as supernatural beings with the ability to 'speak in tongues.' Basically, you all speak English but also speak Hebrew, Greek, and a little Aramaic here and there. You, your staff and crew, are followed around the entire trip. And now the natives are sketching, carving, drawing, writing and talking about everything they have seen. But it is all from memory. Remember, you all are the only ones here with the digital cameras and audio equipment to film this little documentary. So after you all leave, since you take all the footage with you, all they have to go off of to share with others are those drawings and stories told by several different people with several different points of views.

The same thing that happens with your Discovery Channel moment is happening around the world to other cultures by people just like you. They may have different airplanes, clothes and toys, but they're shooting footage, collecting data, taking specimens, and fraternizing with the locals, just like your crew did. And then up and leave when the work is done.

So it ends up happening like this. Time eats away at knowledge like rust corrosion:

FACT becomes FOLKTALE

FOLKTALE becomes LEGEND

LEGEND becomes MYTH

MYTH becomes FICTION

And now, 4000 years later, the true facts of your lovely visit in your fancy plane is nothing more than a crackpot conspiracy theory and fictitious rhetoric drummed up by sci-fi junkies and religious fanatics.

Meanwhile, you're sitting back in "Truthville", comfortably with the remote, watching time go by on your 30' flat screen thinking, they sure are fun to watch. They're the best station on cosmos TV. And while they may have advanced, so have you. And it is only a matter of time before you visit again.Your influence is their reality.
