Redemption

Lecture based Questions:

1. Draw or describe a reminder or symbol of one of your helpers.

Anyone who has helped you to resolve your feelings during a crisis or after a bad choice would be a good pick here.

2. Who is in charge of the office of redemption?

The Christ Office by definition is the office of redemption. The purpose of Christ is specialized and very specific. So at this time, Lord Emmanuel is the head of this function. The peculiarity of the Christ Power is that all obstacles may be transcended by alignment to this transformational force.

3. What is redemption and what is its purpose?

Literally, payment or ransom in an alchemical capacity. To be redeemed in any situation is to experience a life change at some level. It converts negative energy into positive energy. It generates strength, endurance, and wisdom.

4. When does the process of redemption begin and end in our evolution?

Even virgin souls need this to get out of the obstructions of confusion and distraction. The process never ends. There is no ceiling to spiritual evolution.

5. Does the office of redemption function everywhere in the universe?

Yes. However, the illusions of slavery, freedom, guilt, and judgment do not. These are challenges of our specific humanity. Of course, some other planets also use them, but there are humanities that use other types of hindrances.

6. Why do we need the Christ Office and the service of redemption?

All forms of life must adhere to this system in order to rise in personal power. Also, the Network of Light is involved in this process. As each soul rises through redemption, all other souls share in the blessing.

In a mundane setting, our psychological and environmental obstacles are the factors that inform us of what points should be addressed in our spiritual awakening.

7. How do we utilize redemption?

Through faith, prayer, miracles, gratitude, and acts of kindness we forge a lasting structure of personal power. Redemption is not a lonely path of struggle. It is a big party that everyone attends. We redeem each other through shared blessing, connected energy, and healing.

8. Meditation Exercise: The World Is My Body

• My physical body is a colony of tiny organisms all working busily together to maintain and progress in health and success.

• Surrounded by teaming life, I am aware of animals, people, and smaller life forms bustling and moving around me. We are connected in energy and motivation.

• My city is also an organism, which contributes to the greater organism of my state.

• The planet is a thriving body of cooperative life, and I am a tiny contributor to its success.

• Upon us all, gently drifting down from the heights of the eighth dimension, golden benediction glimmers and scintillates through us with life force, love energy, and healing music.

The Festival Is All Around You

Wisdom, peace, and mercy are the best prayers that we can direct to those places that need a cessation of violence and misunderstanding. It is to this end that we constantly direct our focused thoughts and intentions.

We rise when we cease to point at others. When we pray for the blessing of those whom our instincts wish to punish, then we are well on the path to our own delightful moments of enlightenment. This is the challenge, to transcend the impulses of the territorial mind and to replace automatic behaviors with well-trained acts of divinely-guided choices.

Miraculous intervention cannot be discounted as a valuable element in daily life. You must expect miracles at every turn. You must command yourself to be grateful in advance for the wonderful blessings that you are about to receive. Holy Expectancy is the name for it—a good-natured and humorous expectation of all things being well, harmonious, and scrumptiously terrific for yourself and for all the people that you encounter. As you become more comfortable in this mode of living, the episodes of life become easier and easier to navigate. You become bulletproof to negative influences and mischief makers. Your shortcomings become divinely filled.

Every act of kindness, whether it be overt or silently invisible, creates an arc of transformational power between you and the receiver. As we intend to uplift others, we are also uplifting ourselves. We are also acting as avatars for the Christ Office, which has much deeper benefits than merely to improve consciousness or behavior. Christ moves through and among us constantly, generating impulses and awakenments in a beautiful pattern of incandescence. At the astral level, a luminescence permeates the body and transforms the purpose of the mind in a permanent way.

The nourishment of the spirit and the healing of life come to us through small decisions to look outward (away from self-concern). There can be no redemption in a self-absorbed nature. Turn the attention to the environment and know that these surroundings are a response and a reflection of one’s own inner condition. Be alert for opportunities to create good energy for humans and for others. Then you are in the Beam of Christ.

Clasped Hands, Linked Arms, We Dance

No atom is wasted. No time is lost. No light is unseen.

Through travails and self-inflicted woundings

We drift through our lifetimes (while the Adonai dreams)

to the haven of maturity and awareness.

The value of a life is not gauged by product or loudness.

In the measure of God, the amoeba is equal to the man.

As we honor life and sacrifice, so too are we honored.

Including all life, we too are included.

Set down the weapons of your ire and desire. They cannot serve you.

Your stillness creates power. Your simplicity makes greatness.

The raw materials of your success are hidden in your view.

The art of asking is leaving your ambition behind.

The answer to your yearnings has always been in your ear.

Listen to the wisdom ever whispering and waiting.

The food of your hunger has always been in your mouth

Taste the exquisite nectar that satisfies.

Here and now we are future and past of the sum of the universe.

None are left behind. None are left seeking.

All are healed and protected and blessed.

All are awakened and empowered.

Selah.
