  • Wandering Bishops: Not All Roads Lead To Rome
    By: Ayel Lorca | - In early Christendom, men (and, it would seem, women) called episkopoi received authority from their predecessors by the laying on of hands to exercise the fullness of spiritual power bestowed by Jesus on his apostles. The bishops then delegated special functions, such as teaching, forgiveness of sins, healing, and counseling, to ministers who acted as their helpers. The office of bishop is thus more ancient than that of priest, deacon, or other lesser churchly orders, all of which were establis ...

  • The Alchemical Sophia
    By: gingerroesan | - Jung's two greatest works on Alchemy are Psychology and Alchemy and Mysterium Coniunctionis, the latter representing his final summing up of the implications of his long preoccupation with alchemy. In this last summary of his insights on the subject, influenced in part by his collaboration with the Nobel Prize winning physicist Wolfgang Pauli, the old Jung envisions a great psycho-physical mystery to which the alchemists of old gave the name of unus mundus (one world). At the root of all being, ...

  • How Did The New Age Spiritual Movement Come About?
    By: Anadi Taylor | - New Age is a non-religious spiritual movement that developed during the 1960's, becoming more popular in the 1970's. It is believed New Age developed as a reaction against what some perceived as the failure of Christianity to provide spiritual and ethical guidance.

But just when he had resolved to do this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to ...

  • Communication & Tongues
    By: Phillip Ross | - "The one who speaks in a tongue builds up himself, but the one who prophesies builds up the church" (1 Corinthians 14:4). If you are saying something that only you understand, you are talking to yourself, building yourself up, edifying yourself, or making yourself understand. But if you are saying something that others can understand, then you are building them up, edifying them, making them understand. This is so basic that it is hard to get a hold of. The purpose of language (tongues) is commu ...

  • Tongues, Part 1
    By: Phillip Ross | - The gift of tongues is difficult to understand, not because it is shrouded in mystery, but because there is so much historical confusion about it. The first difficulty is to understand what it is, to define it correctly -- biblically. We will use the interpretive principle that the plainest, most ordinary and simple definition is the most likely to be true. However, this will require that we disabuse ourselves of the contemporary definition and use of tongues through the widely popular Pentecost ...

    By: Phillip Ross | - Paul said that God works in His church, His people, through a variety of means. And that in spite of the variety of ways that God makes Himself manifest there is always a unity that binds the different manifestations of His work together.

There are other gifts that God gives to His people. In fact, all of what we call talents and abilities are gift ...

  • Is Popery The Antichrist? Prophecy Describes By Reality
    By: Still Waters | - IS POPERY THE ANTICHRIST? THE TENDENCY OF PROPHECY TO DESCRIBE THINGS ACCORDING TO THE REALITY, RATHER THAN THE APPEARANCE OR PROFESSION

    By Patrick Fairbairn

    The interpretation which has been given in the text of the strongest terms in the apostle's language respecting the antichrist, by understanding them of a virtual, in contradistinction to a formal and avowed assumption of blasphemous prerogatives, is so much in accordance with the general style of prophecy, and so ...

  • What Makes Life Worth Living?
    By: AnnA Rushton | - What makes life worth living may seem a flip title but I mean this in all seriousness as I came across a truly startling statistic this week. According to the World Health Organisation, around 1 million people die of suicide every year, the tenth largest cause of death globally. Awful enough, but what startled me was that more die by suicide than by any other type of violence, including armed conflict.

    Every day on average there are 3,000 people who cannot find a sufficient reason f ...

  • The Da Vinci Code And The Holy Grail

  • Plant Spirit Shamanism: Fragrant Fascinations
    By: ross heaven | - Our fascination with perfume began thousands of years ago, with the burning of scented plants mixed with gums and resins to create incense that was used for ritual as well as practical purposes - for merging with the natural world to increase the effectiveness of hunting, for example, as well as for calling the owner of the animals to ensure plentiful game, and protection on the hunt itself.

  • Glimpses Of Esoteric Christianity Part 7
    By: Luxamore | - The exoteric Church teaches that those who believe in the man Jesus would eventuate in the physical resurrection of their decaying flesh or bones at the day of reckoning. We would all inherit or rather enter into God's kingdom, if we would obey and give credence to the dogmas invented by the priesthood. It is a pity that man would believe in such fanciful ideas, especially when St. Paul himself declares that,

    "flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perisha ...

  • Glimpses Of Esoteric Christianity Part 5
    By: Luxamore | - The comprehension of Karma as revealed to the masses by Jesus is an improvement of the old interpretation and understanding of the principle of a previous dispensation of "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth," as given to the Israelites by Moses. To illustrate this, the law does not cause blindness as a punishment to an individual if he had blinded someone in the past. It does, however, make him aware, in some manner, of the wrongness of his actions--even if it does take blinding him if other ...

Glorified by the divinity of his God-presence, man manifests his full divine potential with the fruits of the Tree of Life in full development with the aspects of will/power, love/wisdom, intelligen ...

    By: Luxamore | - Esotericism

    There is more to Truth and Reality than what elementary minds would want to pursue and consider. It often seems more comfortable to sit in the dark where we see nothing than to face the blinding light. Is the blindness the same in both cases? The former is blissful ignorance, the latter an initial shock--but one that eventually offers solace to the soul. It is the courageous individual that seeks Truth no matter how painful or shocking it may be. In this paper we do no ...

How will it assist our civilization and culture to progress? How will our lives be re-created individually and collectively with the application of metaphysical principles? Questions abound concerning metaphysics, for people intuitively feel that it may have something precious to offer in terms of facilitating personal growth and se ...

    Despite cultural changes in the Western World in the last 30 years, few women are genetically programmed to be heroic. Their hormones program them to nurture.

    Men, obviously, attempt heroic feats, almost from Day One. The choice of heroism, however, comes from beliefs in the subconscious mind. One man goes to war, leads his troops right into enemy fire. Another leads a crowd protesting war. Both are hard-wired to act heroical ...
