	<title><![CDATA[The WORD and LOVE]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic; font-weight: 700;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">Jesus Christ taught, lived and presented the WORD. He is the WORD - the WORD that was personified in human flesh. We can see, feel, touch and be totally transformed by the WORD. The Life and Teachings of Jesus alone is enough for anyone to &quot;</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">grasp the WORD</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">&quot;, &quot;</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">demonstrate the WORD</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">&quot; (demonstration of spirit and power!) and be a complete example of LOVE - AGAPE. You can interface with the WORD through books; through prayers and meditation; through spiritual fellowship with sons and daughters of God, etc. When it comes to books, for example, it takes total commitment to the ministry of the Spirit of Truth in order to see clearly and separate the WORD from the views of the human authors. Many people are not committed to this. </span></span></div><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">&nbsp;</div><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">In the final analysis, if anyone claims to be of God, LOVE must be the centerpiece of his or her life. And you cannot hide your true character and heart position. Any keen observer would see through you. Jesus tells us that: &ldquo;</span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic; font-weight: 700;">By their fruits, you shall know them.&rdquo; </span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">And also,</span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic; font-weight: 700;"> &ldquo;All men shall know that you are my disciples if you have love for one another.&rdquo; (John 13:35) </span></div><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">If you are a student of love, humility and service to humanity would be all over you. Pride, jealousy, sexual immorality, greed, etc would be far from you. </span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: 700;">Love is the desire to do good to others. </span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful, etc (I Corinthians 13 and also the life of Jesus shows all these). Love prays for your friends and enemies as well - for their salvation, knowledge of truth, and general well being. Love does not pray for your fellow humans to die, left right and center like we see some people do these days. It&#39;s crazy! </span></div><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">People may hide their sins or hide their true character but no one can hide anything from God. Also, you may not be able to hide your true nature, character and godliness (or ungodliness) from your family. If you want to know whether someone is of God, please go ask their spouse and children and brothers, sisters, parents, close colleagues at work, etc. If these people do not see </span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic; font-weight: 700;">your LOVE - the divine character manifest through you,</span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;"> something is always wrong. An individual may pretend before the public. But it&#39;s not that easy to pretend before close family members and close business associates. </span></div><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">Love has the total transformative power to break the yoke of sin and shatter to nothingness, the shackles of iniquity. </span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt;"><b><i>Love,</i></b></span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;"> </span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic; font-weight: 700;">manifesting through you</span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">, has the power to bring peace of mind and tranquility of spirit to other people. Love is an action word. DC Talk puts it this way, &quot;Love is a verb.&quot; It is a revelation of the divine love, understood and accepted by the human heart and then admitted into the human heart that brings salvation to the soul of that human being. Please, note that the individual does not need to have a very deep understanding of God&rsquo;s love in the beginning in order to be saved. But at least, there has to be some form of understanding of God&rsquo;s love otherwise, it would be very difficult for that individual to surrender all to God. </span></div><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">Also, it is a deeper and growing understanding of agape (divine love, divine character) that takes us to higher and higher levels of spiritual power, authority and maturity. Hallelujah! Hosanna! Hallelujah!</span></div><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">&nbsp;</div><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">~Brother Karo Kanye Akamune</span></div><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">&nbsp;</div>

	<description><![CDATA[<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 22px;"><span>AYO&#39;S MONTHLY BLOG ON THE POWER OF HUMILITY: &quot;A REFLECTION ON SERVICE AND EGO&quot;</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 22px;"><span><img alt="" height="36" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-arch-01.png" width="560"></span></span></div><div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><blockquote><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Excerpt:&ldquo;Though the work is important, the self is not. When you feel important, you lose energy to the wear and tear of ego dignity so that there is little energy left to do the work.&rdquo;&nbsp;48:6.37 (555.5)</div></blockquote><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">Did you know that; it&rsquo;s easy to lose sight of what truly matters. Many of us find ourselves caught up in our roles&mdash;be it as a professional, a parent, or a community leader&mdash;and we sometimes forget that the significance we attach to our identities can obscure the very essence of our purpose. As articulated in &#39;The Urantia Book&#39;, &ldquo;Though the work is important, the self is not.&rdquo; This profound statement invites us to reflect on our motivations and encourages us to prioritize our contributions over our ego.</span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">&nbsp; &nbsp;<strong>The Weight of Ego</strong></span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;"><img alt="" height="300" src="https://spiritualfamily.net/photos/thumbnail/90275/master/" style="margin: 6px 12px; float: left;" width="247">Someone would wonder why I have use the word &quot;ego&quot;!&nbsp;<img alt="" height="65" src="https://spiritualfamily.net/photos/thumbnail/69317/master/" width="65"></span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">Consider a typical office environment. Many employees are driven by recognition and personal accolades. Imagine Sarah, a talented project manager who pours her heart into a crucial project. She works late hours, seeks praise from her superiors, and often competes with colleagues for visibility. Initially, her efforts yield impressive results, but over time, the constant need for validation leads to burnout. Her creativity wanes, and instead of focusing on innovation, she finds herself exhausted, consumed by the desire to be acknowledged.</span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">When Sarah&#39;s ego takes center stage, the energy she could have channeled into enriching her work diminishes significantly. Instead of fostering collaboration with her team, she becomes anxious about her standing, inadvertently creating an environment where her colleagues feel unappreciated. This scenario illustrates how the burden of ego can stifle not only personal growth but also the potential of those around us.</span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">&nbsp; <strong>&nbsp;Shifting Focus: Service Over Self</strong></span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">Conversely, think of James, a community organizer who actively works to improve the lives of underprivileged families in his neighborhood. Often seen promoting events or seeking donations, James never seeks personal recognition. His inspiration stems from a deep-rooted commitment to making a difference. He invests countless hours meeting with families, listening to their needs, and collaborating with local businesses to find resources.</span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">In this case, James embodies the spirit of humility. His selflessness allows him to remain energized, driven by a purpose larger than himself. Each success is not &ldquo;his&rdquo; success but a collective achievement. The joy he experiences from helping others fuels his passion, enabling him to address challenges creatively and persistently.</span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">&nbsp; &nbsp; <strong>Everyday Moments of Truth</strong></span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">Humility and service can also manifest in small, everyday interactions. Take a moment to think about your typical day. Whether you&rsquo;re helping a coworker, assisting a neighbor, or simply being present for a friend, each small act of kindness contributes to a larger tapestry of community.</span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">Imagine a parent helping their child with homework after a long day at work. Instead of feeling defeated by the fatigue of their job, the parent embraces humility, seeing the value in teaching and guiding their child. This simple act transforms an ordinary evening into a powerful moment of growth for both parent and child.</span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">&nbsp;<strong> Reclaiming Energy for the Greater Good</strong></span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">The essence of the quote reminds us that when we prioritize our work over our ego, we reclaim vital energy. This energy is necessary for creativity, compassion, and collaboration&mdash;the very foundations that enrich our professional and personal lives.</span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">Ego may promise us recognition and respect, but it ultimately saps our energy, leading to stagnation and frustration. Letting go of the need for validation allows us to engage more authentically with our work and those around us, fostering environments where everyone can thrive.</span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">&nbsp; <strong>Conclusion: A Call to Action</strong></span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">Therefore, let us remember that the work we do is far more significant than our individual selves. Embrace the humility that fosters genuine connections and cultivates collaboration.</span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">By recognizing that our contributions matter more than our need for recognition, we can infuse our lives&mdash;and the lives of those around us&mdash;with purpose and energy. When we shift our focus from &ldquo;me&rdquo; to &ldquo;we,&rdquo; we invite a transformative experience that nourishes not only our spirits but also the very fabric of our communities.</span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">Let this be a gentle reminder: In the grand tapestry of life, it&rsquo;s not about us; it&rsquo;s about the impact we create together.</span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">I love you all.</span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span style="font-size: 18px;">Ayo.&nbsp;<img alt="" height="41" src="https://spiritualfamily.net/photos/thumbnail/70149/master/" width="99"></span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 18px;"><img alt="" height="764" src="https://spiritualfamily.net/photos/thumbnail/90277/master/" width="1025"></span></div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">&nbsp;</div><div dir="auto" style="border: 0px; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(36, 36, 36); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 18px;"><img alt="" height="111" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-00-break-c.png" width="1000"></span></div></div>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[Meditation and Love]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><b><i>One way to grow in love is to, in the art of meditation, visualize very powerful and loving rays of light, peace, friendliness, forgiveness and acceptance flowing from your heart to others - to your friends and to your enemies. </i></b></span></div><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">&nbsp;</div><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">This is about using the creative powers of your mind to have a sustainable impact in the lives of others. When you engage in that exercise, you are saying to God that you desire to see love and goodwill extend from you to the other person. As a result, the spirit of God the Father would join forces with you to create the beautiful reality you desire. In a sense, you would be &quot;speaking to that person&#39;s spirit&quot; and connecting with the person through the anchor and channel of the divine love. </span></div><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">Please, take a very close look at </span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic;">the art of prayer</span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">. When you pray for others, and speak good things into their lives, what do you really think you are doing? As you pray, you visualize those good things you desire for them. You visualize and project those good things into their inner man. In the spirit realm, you connect with them and doors open for the supernatural to occur in their lives &ndash; and in your life as well because the art of giving is impregnated with the art of receiving. That&#39;s why Jesus said it is more blessed to give than to receive. Why &ndash; because in giving, you are also receiving. A giver gets double blessings: (1) giving cheerfully is a blessing in itself; and (2) when you give, automatically, you place yourself in a realm to receive - for God pours blessings into you because you gave cheerfully. When you pray for others, you are giving to them. </span></div><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">Please, note that the spiritual exercise above implies that during moments of silent meditation as you reflect on &quot;the WORD&quot;, visualize rays of light flowing from you to someone else. Love is beautiful. As a result, you take something as beautiful as bright and colorful rays of light, encapsulating your love, and send them from your heart to another person&#39;s heart. Miracles happen. </span></div><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic;">Have you not had experiences where maybe you saw Jesus and great and powerful rays of light were streaming from Him to you? </span></div><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">Meditation involves silently reflecting on &quot;the Word&quot;. It also involves keeping your mind still, not thinking about anything and just focus your mind on hearing from God - the Still Small Voice. Remember Prophet Elijah&rsquo;s experience? He may have been expecting God to show up through strong winds, earthquake, fire and all that. But what finally happened? God came in </span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;"><b>a still small voice</b></span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">. This &quot;Voice&quot; is within you, for our Heavenly Father has put His spirit within you.</span></div><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><br /><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">The art of meditation is connecting with this Inner Voice. Jesus was a superb Master at this during his Earth bestowal mission. This is where you really get to engage in a dialogue with God - instead of a monologue. This is how you really attain greatest spiritual heights of power, glory and authority and holiness. Enoch achieved this. Elijah did as well. ...and they were caught up or raptured, translated from the Earth realm to the Heavenly realms. Jesus attained this as well and would have been caught up too but something else happened because he needed to tarry&hellip; </span></div><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">This is Karo! And I love you! </span><br />&nbsp;</div><div dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal;">~Brother Karo Kanye Akamune</span></div>

	<title><![CDATA[Death and the Seven Psychic Circles]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<div><strong>Please, note briefly:&nbsp;</strong></div><div>There are Seven Psychic Circles. Each individual human being starts out at the Seventh Circle and makes progress &ldquo;inwards and upwards&rdquo; to the First Circle.&nbsp;It&rsquo;s all about a beautiful combination of ever increasing intellectual development and continuous spiritual growth.&nbsp;To learn more about the seven psychic or cosmic circles of&nbsp;personality status, mind attainment, soul growth, and Adjuster attunement (intimacy with God)&nbsp;please see the Urantia Book, Paper 110, Section 6 (UB 110:6), &quot;The Seven Psychic Circles&quot;:<a href="http://www.urantiabook.org/newbook/papers/p110.htm#P110_6_0">http://www.urantiabook.org/newbook/papers/p110.htm#P110_6_0</a></div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div style="margin: auto;"><strong>+ + +</strong></div><div style="margin: auto;"><br />&nbsp;</div><div style="margin: auto;"><strong>Death and Resurrection within Three Days</strong><br />&nbsp;</div><div>Basically, it takes about &quot;three days&quot; for a believer who has died to arrive at the Mansion Worlds (aka &ldquo;Heaven&rdquo;). This is because the Guardian Angel (Seraphim) and the Thought Adjuster (the indwelt spirit Monitor, the divine fractal, the spirit of God the Father within) have to spend time to go through some protocols, standard operating procedures and transactions before they show up on the Mansion Worlds. The Seraphim, in a sense, has the soul in safekeeping and the divine Monitor holds the spirit transcript, the spiritualized mind or the &quot;spirit-mind&quot; of the human. They hold in safekeeping (&quot;trust&quot;). &nbsp;Please, let us take a good look at the Urantia Book (UB) for it presents outstanding revelations concerning this matter.&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>UB 113:6.5, &quot;The guardian seraphim is the custodial trustee of the survival values of mortal man&rsquo;s slumbering soul as the absent Adjuster is the identity of such an immortal universe being. When these two collaborate in the resurrection halls of mansonia in conjunction with the newly fabricated morontia form, there occurs the reassembly of the constituent factors of the personality of the mortal ascender.&quot;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Now what are the transactions or standard operating procedures that the Guardian Seraphim and Mystery Monitor (Adjuster) go through?&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div><strong>The Angel:&nbsp;</strong></div><div>UB 113:6.2, &quot;The instant the pilot light in the human mind disappears, the spirit luminosity which seraphim associate with the presence of the Adjuster, the attending angel reports in person to the commanding angels, successively, of the group, company, battalion, unit, legion, and host; and after being duly registered for the final adventure of time and space, such an angel receives certification by the planetary chief of seraphim for reporting to the Evening Star (or other lieutenant of Gabriel) in command of the seraphic army of this candidate for universe ascension. And upon being granted permission from the commander of this highest organizational unit, such a guardian of destiny proceeds to the first mansion world and there awaits the consciousizing of her former ward in the flesh.&quot;&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div><strong>The Adjuster:&nbsp;</strong></div><div>UB 112:4.1, &quot;When death of a material, intellectual, or spiritual nature occurs, the Adjuster bids farewell to the mortal host and departs for Divinington. From the headquarters of the local universe and the superuniverse a reflective contact is made with the supervisors of both governments, and the Monitor is registered out by the same number that recorded entry into the domains of time.&quot;&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>UB 112:4.13, &quot;If the human individual survives without delay, the Adjuster, so I am instructed, registers at Divinington, proceeds to the Paradise presence of the Universal Father, returns immediately and is embraced by the Personalized Adjusters of the superuniverse and local universe of assignment, receives the recognition of the chief Personalized Monitor of Divinington, and then, at once, passes into the &ldquo;realization of identity transition,&rdquo; being summoned therefrom on the third period and on the mansion world in the actual personality form made ready for the reception of the surviving soul of the earth mortal as that form has been projected by the guardian of destiny.&quot;&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Please, take note of the term, &quot;third period&quot; - third day. Clearly, we see that the attending Seraphim and Thought Adjuster of the human being go through some laid down procedures at the death of the mortal. Going through those protocols takes time. This is why you would not literally appear on the first Mansion World the very instant you die.&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div style="margin: auto;"><strong>Death and a Future Resurrection</strong></div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Now please, let us take a look at Paper 112:4.12, &quot;If, when death overtakes you, you have attained the third circle or a higher realm and therefore have had assigned to you a personal guardian of destiny, and if the final transcript of the summary of survival character submitted by the Adjuster is unconditionally certified by the destiny guardian &mdash; if both seraphim and Adjuster essentially agree in every item of their life records and recommendations &mdash; if the Universal Censors and their reflective associates on Uversa confirm this data and do so without equivocation or reservation, in that event the Ancients of Days flash forth the mandate of advanced standing over the communication circuits to Salvington, and, thus released, the tribunals of the Sovereign of Nebadon will decree the immediate passage of the surviving soul to the resurrection halls of the mansion worlds.&quot;&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Please, observe closely that Paper 112:4.12 gives some conditions (&quot;if statements&quot;) that you must meet to qualify to get to our nearest &quot;Heaven&quot; (the Mansion Worlds) on the third period (within three days). One of these conditions is that you must have attained the third circle or a higher realm. This means by way of overall intellectual development and spiritual growth, you must have attained the Third Psychic (Cosmic) Circle or a higher realm (i.e. the Second or First Psychic Circle) before you die.&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Each and every single one of those conditions must be met. Otherwise, you will sleep the sleep of death to await a Dispensational Resurrection or some later Resurrection at the discretion of &quot;God&quot; (to put it quite simply):&nbsp;&ldquo;If the mortal associate belongs to a group that will be repersonalized at the end of a dispensation, the Adjuster will not immediately return to the mansion world of the former system of service but will, according to choice, enter upon one of the following temporary assignments&hellip;&rdquo; &ndash; UB 112:4.4. This group of people that would resurrect at the end of a dispensation comprises individuals in the Seventh and Fourth Psychic Circles (inclusive).</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>So right here, we see two groups of people: people who would resurrect within three days after they die and people who would sleep the sleep of death and resurrect at a future time.&nbsp;And please, note that to be &ldquo;repersonalized at the end of a dispensation&rdquo; means to be resurrected at the end of a dispensation. An example of a dispensational resurrection occurred after Jesus resurrected: Matthew 27:52-53, &ldquo;And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose. And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.&rdquo;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Dispensational Resurrections take place at the end of a dispensation and there are reasons to believe that other periodic resurrections occur from time to time even though the majority of humans living on the Earth may not be aware of this.</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div style="margin: auto;"><strong>Death (in actuality, &ldquo;Translation&rdquo;) by way of Adjuster Fusion on Earth</strong>&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;</div><div>Fusion with one&rsquo;s Thought Adjuster on Earth applies to individuals who are in the first Cosmic or Psychic Circle AND have attained translation levels of spiritual progress. You have to attain a certain higher level of spiritual maturity and remarkably outstanding intimacy with God for this to occur in your life &ndash; right here on Earth (Urantia).&nbsp;In passing, we may say that Thought Adjuster fusion is the attainment of &ldquo;complete and eternal oneness&rdquo; with the God-within, the spirit of God in man, the candle light of God in you, the Still Small Voice within.&nbsp;</div><div><br />UB 55:1.6, &quot;On presettled worlds, planets without morontia temples, these fusion flashes many times occur in the planetary atmosphere, where the material body of a translation candidate is elevated by the midway creatures and the physical controllers.&quot;&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>UB 55:1.5, &quot;...the translation... ...the blazing glory of the consuming fire which so completely obliterates the physical bodies of those mortals who therein experience final fusion with their divine Adjusters.&quot;&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div style="margin: auto;"><strong>In Conclusion&hellip;</strong></div><div><br />Therefore, we may say that for a first circler who fuses with his/her Thought Adjuster while in the flesh, on Earth, &ldquo;going to Heaven&rdquo; occurs in an &quot;instant&quot; - zero days; within minutes! This is what happened to Enoch and Elijah - &quot;fusion&quot;, total and eternal oneness with the God-within. But it&#39;s three days for a first circler who dies before fusion takes place.</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>For a second and third circler, it&#39;s three days. (That&#39;s for those who attained the second or third psychic circle.)&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>For those between the fourth and seventh psychic or cosmic circles (between fourth and seventh, inclusive), it takes longer than three days. They may have to sleep the sleep of death and await a Dispensational Resurrection or a general Resurrection that occurs periodically at the discretion of our Creator-Father, Christ Michael and/or a Descending Paradise Son.&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>The &quot;wait time&quot; boils down to the level of cosmic circle attainment. It&#39;s easy to see this because the Universal Law states clearly,&nbsp;<strong>&quot;You reap what you sow.&quot;</strong>&nbsp;You have obtained the gift of &quot;salvation&quot; (survival). That&#39;s great! However, that, in and of itself is not enough to get you to transition from this Earth realm to the Heavenly realms immediately after your death. And clearly, death in and of itself has no such powers to immediately catapult you or instantly take you there.&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>To get to heaven instantly (by way of &quot;fusion&quot;) or to get there within a few days (three days), you must sow the requisite seeds of higher levels of love, righteousness, intelligence, wisdom, knowledge and understanding and deep intimacy with God the Paradise Father,&nbsp;<strong>the</strong>&nbsp;<strong>First Source and Center</strong>. You cannot allow yourself to be stuck on the sixth cosmic circle and expect to resurrect within the same time frame as a third, a second or a pre-fusion first circler. Nah! Mba! It does not happen.&nbsp;You have to &ldquo;ascend&rdquo; to the mansion worlds in your own individual right or await a dispensational summoning of the sleeping survivors of a planetary age (See&nbsp;UB 112:4.3). And we can see clearly that this depends on the level of cosmic or psychic circle that you have attained. &ldquo;You reap what you sow.&rdquo; This is not surprising for Jesus always gave parables along the lines of sowing and reaping.&nbsp;<br /><br />&nbsp;</div><div>To learn more about the seven psychic or cosmic circles of&nbsp;personality status, mind attainment, soul growth, and Adjuster attunement (intimacy with God)&nbsp;please see Paper 110:6, &quot;The Seven Psychic Circles&quot;:<a href="http://www.urantiabook.org/newbook/papers/p110.htm#P110_6_0">http://www.urantiabook.org/newbook/papers/p110.htm#P110_6_0</a></div><p><br />

	<title><![CDATA[The 2025-2026 Crash: Why It Will Be Worse Than 1929 and 2008 Combined]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<h1 style="font-size: 2rem; color: rgb(15, 15, 15); font-style: normal; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 22px;">The 2025-2026 Crash: Why It Will Be Worse Than 1929 and 2008 Combined</span></h1><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 22px;"><img alt="" height="36" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-arch-01.png" width="560"></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyNOBU45sXA" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: 22px;"><img alt="" height="400" src="https://spiritualfamily.net/photos/thumbnail/90216/master/" width="600"></span></a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><span style="font-size: 22px;">The textbooks show us 1929 and 2008 as the worst financial crashes in modern history. But 2025 is different &mdash; this time stocks, bonds, and real estate are ALL crashing simultaneously in what economists call the Everything Bubble. When the stock market crashed in 1929, bonds were safe. When housing crashed in 2008, stocks recovered in 5 years. But in 2025-2026, there&#39;s nowhere to hide because every asset class is overvalued at levels never seen in history &mdash; and the Federal Reserve has no tools left to stop the collapse.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 22px;">From the S&amp;P 500 trading at Price-to-Earnings ratios only seen twice before (1929 and 2000, both before crashes) to $36 trillion in government debt making bailouts impossible, to commercial real estate defaults that will destroy regional banks, this video uses financial data, historical patterns, and current economic indicators to show why the 2025-2026 crash will be worse than 1929 and 2008 combined:</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 22px;">THE THREE BUBBLES (All Crashing Together):<br />
1️⃣ STOCK BUBBLE: S&amp;P 500 P/E ratio 28+ (average: 15-17, only higher in 1929 and 2000)<br />
2️⃣ REAL ESTATE BUBBLE: Homes 50%+ above trend (2008 was 35%, this is 43% WORSE)<br />
3️⃣ BOND BUBBLE: $36T government debt (125% GDP), $1.2T annual interest (largest budget item)</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 22px;">1929 COMPARISON - Same Warning Signs:<br />
Stock valuations at extremes ✅<br />
Margin debt at records ✅<br />
Wealth inequality extreme ✅<br />
&quot;This time is different&quot; mentality (AI = 1929&#39;s electricity) ✅<br />
Few stocks holding up market (Magnificent 7 = 30% of S&amp;P 500) ✅<br />
BUT 2025 WORSE: Everyone exposed via 401ks (58% of households vs 10% in 1929)</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 22px;">2008 COMPARISON - Same Patterns:<br />
Real estate overvalued ✅<br />
Subprime lending everywhere (auto, credit cards, student loans) ✅<br />
Banks overleveraged ✅<br />
Derivatives explosion ($600T+ notional value) ✅<br />
BUT 2025 WORSE: Fed already used all tools (rates can&#39;t go much lower, already printed $6T causing inflation)</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 22px;">12 WARNING SIGNS (Happening NOW November 2025):<br />
1. Inverted yield curve UN-inverted September 2024 (recession 3-12 months after)<br />
2. Credit card debt $1.14T record, delinquencies rising<br />
3. Commercial real estate: $2T+ mortgages refinancing at 3x higher rates<br />
4. Regional banks failing (SVB, Signature, First Republic, NYCB)<br />
5. Magnificent 7 concentration (30% of S&amp;P 500 in 7 stocks)<br />
6. Insider selling at record pace (Bezos $13B, Zuckerberg billions)<br />
7. Buffett hoarding $325B cash (Buffett indicator: 185%, danger above 120%)<br />
8. Unemployment rising 3.4% &rarr; 4.1% (Sahm Rule triggered)<br />
9. Auto loan delinquencies: 7.5% (highest since 2009)<br />
10. Student loan crisis: $1.77T, delinquencies spiking<br />
11. Geopolitical risks: Ukraine, Middle East, China-Taiwan<br />
12. Commercial defaults beginning (Brookfield, Blackstone)</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 22px;">WHY 2025-2026 WORSE THAN BOTH:</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 22px;">1929 HAD:<br />
Only stocks crashed (bonds safe)<br />
Only 10% in market (90% unaffected directly)<br />
Fed had credibility and tools<br />
Low government debt (16% GDP)</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 22px;">2008 HAD:<br />
Only housing crashed<br />
Fed could cut rates 5.25% &rarr; 0%<br />
Fed could do QE (balance sheet $800B &rarr; $4T)<br />
Government could borrow for bailouts (debt 67% GDP)</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 22px;">2025 HAS:<br />
EVERYTHING crashes (stocks + bonds + real estate)<br />
58% exposed via retirement accounts (everyone loses)<br />
Fed out of tools (already did QE, caused inflation)<br />
Government can&#39;t bail out (debt 125% GDP, $1.2T/year interest)<br />
Baby Boomers retiring = 70M selling not buying<br />
No good options (raise rates = crash, lower rates = inflation, print = dollar crisis)</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 22px;">THE TIMELINE:<br />
Based on yield curve (un-inverted Sept 2024): Recession 3-12 months after<br />
Critical window: December 2025 - September 2026 &larr; WE&#39;RE IN IT NOW<br />
Commercial mortgages due: 2025-2026 peak<br />
Most likely crash: Q4 2025 - Q2 2026</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 22px;">WHAT HAPPENS:<br />
Stocks drop 65-80% (worse than 1929&#39;s 89% because faster)<br />
Bonds drop 35-50% (unprecedented, no safe haven)<br />
Real estate drops 40-60% (worse than 2008)<br />
Unemployment 15-20%+ (worse than 2008&#39;s 10%)<br />
Recovery: 10-20 years (not 5 years like 2008)</span></p><p>&nbsp;</p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[Call No One &quot;Father&quot; - In The Spiritual Sense]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px;">Call no one &quot;father&quot;, in the spiritual sense. Your spiritual Father is the Father in Heaven - the Heaven of Heavens, Paradise.</span><br style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px;">
<br style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px;">
<span style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px;">It is very dangerous to call a fellow human being your &quot;father in the Lord&quot;, &quot;Papa&quot;, &quot;Mama&quot;, &quot;spiritual father&quot;, etc. When you do so, you may end up worshipping them and you may not be very conscious of this happening. A &quot;personality cult&quot; may develop around the person. Many people may start bowing down to and worshipping him or her - unconsciously. As a human being, you have a &quot;WORSHIP CIRCUIT&quot; built into you. You are &quot;fearfully and wonderfully made&quot; - you are intricate, delicate, superbly special and wonderful. There&#39;s a worship circuitry that connects you to the Paradise Father - directly!</span><br style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px;">

<span style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px;">If you are not careful, you may find yourself channelling that built-in worship circuitry to that man or woman you call your spiritual father/mother, Papa/Mama. That individual may end up taking the place of God in your life. That&#39;s a curse! That&#39;s very, very dangerous! Your eternity may be at stake! Your life on Earth may become messed up! This is no joke at all, beloved...</span><br style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px;">

<span style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px;">We are all brothers and sisters - children of God. Some of us are lost like the Prodigal Son. Some of us are saved - salvaged sons and daughters of the Heavenly Father. You should love and honor those who teach you TRUTH but you must not worship them. Don&#39;t call them &quot;father&quot; or &quot;mother&quot;. They are your brothers and sisters. Yes, they may be more spiritually matured. But this doesn&#39;t make them better than you in the sight of God. Learn to love everyone, including your enemies. Fear no one. Bow down to no one. God bless and keep you!

Neither should you seek to lord it over your brethren in the kingdom. Remember, I have taught you that he who would be greatest among you should become the server of all. If you presume to exalt yourselves before God, you will certainly be humbled; but whoso truly humbles himself will surely be exalted. Seek in your daily lives, not self-glorification, but the glory of God. Intelligently subordinate your own wills to the will of the Father in heaven.&quot; - Jesus, The Urantia Book 175:1.10</i></b></span></p><p>~ Brother Karo Kanye Akamune</p>

	<title><![CDATA[The New Covenant In Christ Jesus]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<div>Christ does not place a multitude of laws, rules and regulations upon your shoulders. All he asks is that you, &quot;Walk in Love&quot;. You are required to seek to gain more understanding of LOVE - the divine love. You have been spiritually &quot;quickened&quot; and &quot;activated&quot; to be guided by LOVE. There is NO LAW but the &quot;Law of Love&quot;.</div><div>As a responsible child of God, you are duty-bound to understand how this LOVE plays out in everything you do. You are required to spend quality time in personal/private prayers and in meditation, in study of great books that God will bring your way and in fellowship with fellow believers. Devote your heart to fully understand the teachings of Jesus.</div><div>- In Christ, there&#39;s NO LAW that says you must pay TITHES. In Moses, there&#39;s such a law. Christ says GIVE CHEERFULLY. Jesus NEVER taught tithes as &quot;a must requirement&quot;. His Apostles NEVER did as well.<br />- In Christ, there&#39;s NO LAW that says a witch must be KILLED. In Moses, there&#39;s such a law. Christ says PRAY for your ENEMIES.<br />- In Christ, there&#39;s NO LAW that says &quot;an eye for an eye&quot;. In Moses, there&#39;s such a law. Christ says &quot;FORGIVE&quot;.</div><div>In Christ, we are under the &quot;Law of the Spirit of Life&quot;, the &quot;Perfect Law of Liberty&quot;, the &quot;Law of Love&quot;. Understand these things, and you will not live in fear and bondage! Amen!&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>NB:&nbsp;<br /><strong>The Perfect Law of Liberty:</strong><br />James 1:25, &quot;But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.&quot;<br /><br /><strong>The Law of the Spirit of Life:&nbsp;</strong><br />Romans 8:2, &quot;For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.&quot;<br /><br /><strong>There is no Law against Love:</strong><br />Galatians 5:22-23, &quot;But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, fidelity, meekness, self-control: against such things there is no law.&quot;<br /><br />May God Almighty, our &quot;Father&quot;, the all merciful and all gracious bless you abundantly! Amen.</div><div><br />~Brother Karo Kanye Akamune</div><div>&nbsp;</div>

	<title><![CDATA[Jesus said, &quot;The Kingdom of God is within you.&quot;]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px;">What is the good news of the Kingdom? Jesus said, &quot;The Kingdom of God is within you.&quot; WITHIN you because you are created in the image and after the likeness of your God, our Father in Heaven. He has put His spirit WITHIN you. As a human being, there&#39;s a &quot;Holy of Holies&quot; WITHIN you. That&#39;s where the Father&#39;s spirit dwells. This is the true meaning of Job 32:8, &quot;But there is a spirit in man...&quot;</span><br style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px;">
<br style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px;">
<span style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px;">Jesus&#39; gospel placed a central FOCUS on this very fact. Jesus did not say the Kingdom was about to come into you. No! He said it was already WITHIN you! Salvation comes to you when you believe and receive this fact by faith through the grace of God and dedicate your heart completely to walking in its realities again by faith through the grace of God. And then in intimate fellowship with God&#39;s indwelling spirit, you begin to manifest the values, character and culture of the Kingdom. As a result, the Kingdom would exert its influence in your midst or around you. This is how the kingdoms of men become the Kingdom of our God and His Christ.</span><br style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px;">
<br style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px;">
<span style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 15.84px;">This is a summary of the good news or the gospel of the Kingdom as presented by Jesus Christ. Anything different is &quot;another gospel&quot;. It doesn&#39;t matter who presents it: be it an angel, Paul, Peter or your Pastor. It is &quot;another gospel&quot;.</span></p><p>&nbsp;</p>

	<title><![CDATA[“Spiritual Father” - Safe-guard Your Spiritual Worship Circuitry]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<div style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(29, 33, 41); font-size: 17px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 28px; margin-left: auto;"><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Safe-guard Your Spiritual Worship Circuitry! God bless you! Amen. </span> It is very dangerous to call a fellow human being your &quot;father in the Lord&quot;, &quot;Papa&quot;, &quot;Mama&quot;, &quot;spiritual father&quot;, etc. (father, papa, mama - in the spiritual sense). When you do so, you may end up worshiping them and you may not be very conscious of this happening. A &quot;personality cult&quot; may develop around the person. You may start bowing down to and worshiping him or her - unconsciously. As a human being, you have a &quot;WORSHIP CIRCUITRY&quot; built into you. You are &quot;fearfully and wonderfully made&quot; - you are strong, intricate, delicate, superbly special and wonderful. There&#39;s a worship circuitry that connects you to the Paradise Father - directly!</div><div style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(29, 33, 41); font-size: 17px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 28px; margin-left: auto;">If you are not careful, you may find yourself channeling that built-in worship circuitry to that man or woman you call your spiritual father/mother, Papa/Mama. That individual may end up taking the place of God in your life. That&#39;s a curse! That&#39;s very, very dangerous! Your eternity may be at stake! Your life on Earth may become messed up! This is no joke at all, beloved.</div><div style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(29, 33, 41); font-size: 17px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 28px; margin-left: auto;">We are all brothers and sisters - children of God. Some of us are lost like &quot;the prodigal son&quot;. Some of us are saved - salvaged sons and daughters of the Heavenly Father. You should love and honor those who teach you TRUTH but you must not worship them. Don&#39;t call them &quot;father&quot; or &quot;mother&quot;. They are your brothers and sisters. Yes, they may be more spiritually matured. But this doesn&#39;t make them better than you in the sight of God. Learn to love everyone, including your enemies. Fear no one. Bow down to no one. God bless and keep you! Amen.</div><div style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(29, 33, 41); font-size: 17px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 28px; margin-left: auto;">It is very important we understand why Jesus made this statement, &quot;And call not [any one] your father upon the earth; for one is your Father, he who is in the heavens.&quot; - Jesus, Matthew 23:9 Darby Bible Translation</div><div style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(29, 33, 41); font-size: 17px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 28px; margin-left: auto;">So, how can you tell if someone else has taken authority over your &quot;spiritual worship circuitry&quot;? Here are some ways to know whether or not you have submitted your &quot;worship circuitry&quot; totally or partially to an individual, spirit, entity or being other than God the Father: - If you fear that individual - If you lose your composure in the presence of that individual - If you stand in awe of that individual - If you freak out in the presence of that individual - If you consider yourself as little or nothing before that individual, spirit, entity or being...</div><div style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(29, 33, 41); font-size: 17px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 28px; margin-left: auto;">The degree to which you do these things is directly proportional to the degree or level of the worship you give to that person. When you understand these things, you will see clearly that some people worship their Pastors, Politicians, Movie Stars, Music Stars, Sports Stars, etc...</div><div style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(29, 33, 41); font-size: 17px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 28px; margin-left: auto;">If people understand what we are talking about here, they would see clearly the subtle and deft hand of Lucifer in the practice of calling their religious leaders, &quot;fathers&quot;. For example in the Roman Catholic Church, Priests are called &ldquo;fathers&rdquo;. This disaster can also be seen in many Pentecostal Charismatic Churches today. As a result of calling them &quot;fathers&quot;, millions upon millions of people from generation to generation unconsciously cede (partially or completely) their &quot;worship circuitry&quot; to these Priests/Pastors. In essence they were regarded as, &quot;spiritual fathers&quot;. In Roman Catholicism for example, things got so bad to such an extent that even when some children told their parents that they were being sexually abused by some of these Priests, some of these parents could not even believe it. There were parents who could not even allow themselves to entertain the idea that this was possible. Some were so scared to even entertain such an idea let alone make bold to bring the matter up publicly. This is one of many, many terrible problems that may arise when you call or regard a human being as your spiritual father.</div><div style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(29, 33, 41); font-size: 17px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 28px; margin-left: auto;">Here&#39;s a video of a Pastor calling his Senior Pastor, &quot;his father&quot; and adding that he wishes he could worship him because he is worshipable. That&rsquo;s a very big problem right there. He may already be worshiping that man without being very conscious of it. You just need to watch for about 2 minutes (from 9:31 to 11:45): <a href="https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fyoutu.be%2FW3m55X_2eE0%3Ft%3D9m27s&amp;h=ATNIHGwNn6sVVXw1AWTByuMMCQ1KOso9-kYYWg5iSX4BpKZurmrkhQLUQ20Iunw9J6uVzzqqImXG_8gjhD4zgqvQwFwwukJdYy2yUmWLjF7gt2NYsrWUKlpqvNKerT2Qwj8BoeoqSBg" rel="noopener nofollow" style="color: rgb(54, 88, 153); cursor: pointer;" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3m55X_2eE0?t</a></div><div style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(29, 33, 41); font-size: 17px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 28px; margin-left: auto;">&quot;And call not [any one] your father upon the earth; for one is your Father, he who is in the heavens.&quot; - Jesus, Matthew 23:9 Darby Bible Translation &ldquo;While you should honor your rulers and reverence your teachers, you should call no man Father in the spiritual sense, for there is one who is your Father, even God...&quot; - Jesus, The Urantia Book 175:1.10</div><div style="font-style: normal; color: rgb(29, 33, 41); font-size: 17px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 28px; margin-left: auto;"><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Safe-guard Your Spiritual Worship Circuitry!
