Baal-Perazim: 80% of David’s Soldiers were Baalites!

I had a spiritual experience via the spiritual gift of "word of knowledge" where it was shown to me that as at 923 BC, Israel still relied on foreign soldiers (foreign mercenaries) for security and defense. The Israelite army was a combination of Hebrews and non-Hebrews. These non-Hebrews did not practice Judaism.

(I literally saw that date: 923 BC. I later went online, plugged in the date, and did a search. I found the confirmation that both kings David and Solomon had lived and died as at 923 BC.)

This means that even after their deaths, the practice continued. When David was around, he employed the loyal services of the Hittites, Cherethites, Pelethites, etc. They continued this loyal service into Solomon's reign, helping to execute David's enemies and solidify Solomon's position on the throne. They were executioners and members of the Jewish army. These gentile soldiers are mentioned in the Jewish Bible (Tanakh) in books like 2nd Samuel, 1st Kings, etc. Men from various non-Hebrew tribes or nations were a part of his soldiers. They fought for him.

So, when you read in the Urantia Book revelations (Urantia Book 97:9.12) that 80% of David’s soldiers were non-Hebrews and were also Baalites, it should not surprise you. People who the Jews considered to be gentiles (goyim) and idol worshippers served loyally in their army.

This has some very important implications. 2 Samuel 5:20 has David giving the name Baal-Perazim to a place. Another evidence of his military association with supposedly idol worshippers. What we see is a nation, Israel, doing what various other nations did - having allies with others, regardless of religious affiliation. And that's not a bad thing. A lot of this went on with the Israelites, way more than their history portrayed in their religious books.

This begs the question, "Please, why?" Why did the Hebrew authors, in retelling their history, edit a lot of those associations out? The reason is simple. They wanted it to look like Yahweh, their own tribal "God" did everything for them spiritually, with little or no help from supposedly idol worshippers.

It was a calculated attempt to edit their history in order to showcase a purely sacred history, excluding any secular or profane history or reducing such to the very barest minimum. And "Why, please?" It was part of the brainwashing of their masses that they were a chosen race. Yes, they were selected or chosen to be light bearers of Jesus' gospel to the world. But this does NOT mean being "a chosen race", "a superior people", etc.

It's clear that the Jewish leaders edited their history just like so many nations did in the past and are still doing to this day. Now, with the Jews, the editing of their history has led to a lot of misunderstandings in the minds of billions of people worldwide, of the true nature and character of God the heavenly Father because of the influence of Judaism on major world religions like Christianity and Islam.

So, please, when you read any book or come across any information, how can you know if editing has taken place? How can you discover the real facts and truths? This is where your personal intellectual and spiritual growth comes in. This is where your nearness to God - your intimacy with the heavenly Father, the Infinite Upholder, our "Source", comes in. This is where study, research, and leaning heavily on the ministry of the Spirit of Truth comes in.

Light and Life! 🔥✨️💖

"But Yahweh must, perforce, share some of this glory with the Canaanite gods, for the bulk of David’s army was non-Hebrew. And so there appears in your record (overlooked by the Judahite editors) this telltale statement: “Yahweh has broken my enemies before me. Therefore he called the name of the place Baal-Perazim.” And they did this because eighty per cent of David’s soldiers were Baalites."

The Finaliters!

In the Book of Hebrews 12:22-24 and in the Urantia Book 47:10.3, mention is made of the spirits of just men being made perfect. Who are they, please? Are you interested in delving deeper? 

Nobody becomes perfect as the heavenly Father is perfect immediately after receiving the Father's free gift of salvation. Becoming perfect - divine perfection is a work-in-process. We go through changes - growth and development, numerous transformations, as we mature. 

We are BECOMING perfect. And alas! A day comes in the heavenly realms when we shall attain total or complete divine perfection. We shall become perfect as God, our heavenly Father, the First Father, the Father of love, the First Source and Divine Center, is perfect. 

Please, this does not mean we become "gods" to be worshipped. Not at all. It means we have attained a very, very great level where we walk perfectly, very, very deeply in the will of God, manifesting the nature and character of God the Father perfectly, all the time, to the glory of the Father. 💖

Such an individual cannot sin. Such an individual cannot change his mind and leave God. He or she is one with God forever. This is an eternal oneness that has been fully ACTIVATED - FULLY ACTUALIZED. This is NOT an oneness that exists in potential. At salvation, the potential is there, but not fully actualized. It increasingly becomes actualized as you grow intellectually and spiritually. 👌

One day, you shall go beyond the preliminary heavenly mansion worlds and get to Paradise. You shall have grown to such an amazing extent that you shall qualify to stand, as it were, face-to-face before our heavenly Father, our spiritual Father, our SOURCE. You shall receive the Paradise embrace from Papa! You shall become a finaliter! Oh! Glory to God! 🙌🙌🏽🙌🏿

A finaliter is a perfected spirit - a just man who has become a true spirit. Your soul has evolved to become a perfected spirit, having been guided, step-by-step, from earth to Paradise - guided by that perfect spirit that lives in the Holy of Holies or in the superconscious levels of your mind. That spirit is your Inner Voice, the candle light of God within you, the still, small voice within (Proverbs 20:27), God the Father in you, your Thought Adjuster. (Your Adjuster works in perfect harmony with the Holy Spirit, with your guardian angels, etc.) 

You have become a spirit of a just man (or woman) that has been made perfect. You are a finaliter. Finaliters CANNOT sin because they have become perfect as the heavenly Father is perfect. They have free will. They enjoy a vast, vast, wide variety of choices. The ability to intentionally and freely choose does not mean evil, sin, and iniquity must be involved. For example, Christ Michael (Jesus) has free will. He makes choices. He is not a robot, AND he cannot sin. When we become finaliters, we shall be like or as Christ. 💖✨️🙏🏼

To learn so much more about the finaliters, I suggest you read 📚 and listen 🎶 to:

Celestial Transportation vs. Terrestrial Transportation

 

Remember the scriptures that make mention of wheel within a wheel covered in eyes? Please, let us understand that, as above, so below.

Celestial beings have their own apparatus that they use to travel long distances. Terrestrial beings, like us humans, also have apparatus that we use to travel long distances. For example, air planes.

Air planes have wheels, wings, cameras, lights, etc. These cameras and lights can be seen as eyes. (Even our cars are beginning to have cameras and lights all over - EYES!) Some mortals in other planets with far, far advanced technologies have spacecrafts that may not have traditional wings and are circular, and have a lot of cameras and lights - "covered in eyes".

It is important to understand that the tech or apparatus that celestial personalities travel with (or in) are NOT the same as the ones mortals travel in. However, we may observe some similarities: "as above, so below."

One rule of thumb is this: If your human eyes can see the craft, then it's a terrestrial craft, carrying mortals - mortals of planet earth or mortals from other planets. If it is invisible to your eyes, beyond the range of human vision, and only visible to your spiritual eyes, then it's a craft or transportation apparatus of celestial beings. Now, it is very interesting to note that there are celestial beings themselves that function as transportation vehicles - for example, seraphim angels: "seraphic transports."

Sincerely,

- Karo E.K.D. Akamune

God bless us all. Amen.

Prophet Micah on Human and Animal Blood Sacrifices

Human blood sacrifices and animal blood sacrifices were going on worldwide before there was anything like the nation of Israel. In short, the law of Moses is a carbon copy of the laws of African Traditional Religion. The Heavenly Father has never ever demanded for blood. Blood sacrifices were man's primitive level of understanding in those days. 

Please, look at prophet Micah. He preached against both human blood sacrifices and animal blood sacrifices. Some Jews were practicing both. Micah understood that God did not and does not need blood. 

Micah 6:6-8, NKJV 
6 With what shall I come before the Lord, 
And bow myself before the High God? 
Shall I come before Him with burnt offerings, 
With calves a year old? 

7 Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams, 
Ten thousand rivers of oil? 
Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, 
The fruit of my body for the sin of my soul? 

8 He has shown you, O man, what is good; 
And what does the Lord require of you 
But to do justly, 
To love mercy, 
And to walk humbly with your God? 

Micah 6:7 shows you and I that Jews were practicing human blood sacrifices AND animal blood sacrifices. Jephthah in Judges 11:30-39 is a popular example. God never ever demanded Jephthah to kill or sacrifice his daughter; to spill her blood. But very, very sadly, he did just that. 

Abraham lived about 1,000 years before Jephthah. Abraham also believed in human and animal blood sacrifices. He almost killed his firstborn son, Isaac - a very act that Micah spoke against. Divine intervention saved Isaac from a terrible, senseless death. 

And then we have Leviticus 5:11 and Hebrews 9:22 contradicting each other. Leviticus says blood can be replaced with fine flour. Hebrews says it cannot. All these should tell you that blood sacrifices is a man-made doctrine. Just man trying to figure out the whole ordeal of sin, forgiveness, justice, etc. Blood sacrifices is not a divine doctrine. 

True repentance from the heart and a wholehearted commitment to embrace and walk in the divine love is all that our heavenly Father requires in order to forgive sins and bless us with salvation. His love is all-powerful to break the yoke of sin and destroy the charm of evil. Blood is not needed in the equation. 

Yes, souls receive salvation at the cross of Christ. It is not because of his blood. No, please, It is as a result of the divine encounter they have with the divine love at the cross. Without this encounter, salvation will not occur even if they scream a thousand times, "Blood of Jesus, wash away my sins!" Jesus proved blood is not needed in order to forgive sins by forgiving the sins of people before he died and resurrected: Luke 5:24 and Luke 7:48 are popular examples. 

Jesus did not teach the blood atonement doctrine. Our Master did not go from place to place teaching that sins cannot be forgiven without the shedding of blood. We know what he preached as he traveled from place to place: "Repent. Accept divine forgiveness. Embrace love and walk in it. The kingdom of God is within you. Herein is your salvation." 

Paul preached a different gospel from what Jesus preached. This contributed to different spiritual embarrassments he suffered, including a thorn in his flesh. Millions upon millions upon millions of followers of Paul today are suffering spiritually as well. It's like a curse. Sadly, they are not even aware of the reason they are suffering spiritually. When they do, and change, a very, very great deliverance will come to them. 🎇💖🙏🏽 

- Peace and goodwill!

The Mark of the Beast and 666

As mortals of planet Earth (Urantia), each of us will forever be associated with the number of our planet, according to the registry of inhabited planets. Our number is 5,342,482,337,666. This means that in all of creation, our planet is the 5,342,482,337,666th planet to be inhabited by evolutionary freewill intelligent mortals. All through eternity, we shall always be known by this number. Our number is 5,342,482,337,666. So, figuratively speaking, we may say it's a mark on our heads. When you get to the seven mansion worlds and beyond (in the heavenly abodes), you will be known as a mortal with that number.

On Urantia (planet Earth), we start off as low-level, primitive, evolutionary mortals, having the mark of the beast, i.e. the animal, carnal nature, because we evolved from the animal kingdom. We are mortals, with animal, carnal nature. There is a beast in us. We have that animal mark in us. We are evolutionary mortals living on inhabited planet number 5,342,482,337,666. There were already 5,342,482,337,665 planets with evolutionary mortals living in them before our planet earth was suitable for life.

As a human being, you have a soul and a spirit as well. This spirit is your Thought Adjuster, the still, small voice within, the divine fractal in you. This, your Thought Adjuster begins to engage in a struggle for dominance over your animal, carnal nature. The spirit and the flesh begin to tussle. This leads to all kinds of experiences that can never be had through any other means. These EXPERIENCES contribute immensely for your own benefit and the benefit of all existences: both created existences and uncreated existences. This is all a part of the grand eternal divine plan and purpose of God, our heavenly Father, our spiritual Father, the Causeless Cause, the First Source and Divine Center. Gradually, the mark of the beast will begin to fade away from you, as the spirit gains more and more dominance in the mastery of your mind... ...A day will come either here on Earth (Urantia) or up above in the heavenly realms when the last mark and trace of the animal nature will be gone - removed from you.

Urantia Book 47:10.2
"John the Revelator saw a vision of the arrival of a class of advancing mortals from the seventh mansion world to their first heaven, the glories of Jerusem. He recorded: “And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire; and those who had gained the victory over the beast that was originally in them and over the image that persisted through the mansion worlds and finally over the last mark and trace, standing on the sea of glass, having the harps of God, and singing the song of deliverance from mortal fear and death.” (Perfected space communication is to be had on all these worlds; and your anywhere reception of such communications is made possible by carrying the “harp of God,” a morontia contrivance compensating for the inability to directly adjust the immature morontia sensory mechanism to the reception of space communications.)"

Urantia Book 139:4.14
"When in temporary exile on Patmos, John wrote the Book of Revelation, which you now have in greatly abridged and distorted form. This Book of Revelation contains the surviving fragments of a great revelation, large portions of which were lost, other portions of which were removed, subsequent to John’s writing. It is preserved in only fragmentary and adulterated form."
We may summarize thus: We have the mark of the beast, that is the animal, carnal nature, and we are from inhabited planet number 5,342,482,337,666. The Book of Revelation in the Bible has been edited. In addition, some portions have been lost; some removed. This is why it seems to suggest that the antichrist will give people a mark called 666. If you read that passage in the Bible, you will see that it says that 666 is the number of man:
Revelation 13:18, NKJV
"Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666."

When you consider that the Book of Revelation has been edited, some portions removed, and some portions lost, it will not be difficult for you to understand why that verse was written that way. Yes, 666 is the number of Urantian mortals (earthlings). But the full number is 5,342,482,337,666. This means that in all of creation, our planet is the 5,342,482,337,666th planet to be inhabited by evolutionary freewill intelligent mortals. All through eternity, we shall always be known by this number.

I think someone or some people, in the process of tampering with the Book of Revelation, may have knocked off all the numbers except the last three numbers (666), thinking it's just damn too long and then twisted the whole narrative to mean something totally different from what the Apostle John actually wrote. Also, please bear in mind that large portions of the book have been lost. These are key reasons why the book is very complex and difficult to understand today.
The policy of preventing people from buying and selling is nothing new. It happened to Christians during the Roman Empire. It might happen again - not only to Christians but to anyone who refuses to fall in line with the orders of their government. All that does not change the fact that planet earth is the 5,342,482,337,666th planet to have evolutionary mortal life in all of God's vast, vast, vast, vast creation. Please, bear in mind, we have trillions of galaxies. It is NOT wrong for God to create mortals on other planets. In fact, he has already done just that. And is still doing it. Some people may not want to admit that the Book of Revelation has been tampered with. Oh well, one day, they will find out - either here on earth or when they get to the heavenly realms. It's just a matter of time. But blessed are those who understand and accept these things now. Great rewards, they will enjoy - now and in eternity.

All grace!
Love. Light. Life.

"The next evening, having gathered together the twelve apostles, the apostles of John, and the newly commissioned women's group, Jesus said: "You see for yourselves that the harvest is plenteous, but the laborers are few. Let us all, therefore, pray the Lord of the harvest that he send forth still more laborers into his fields."" - Urantia Book Paper 150:4.1

"And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force." - Jesus, Matthew 11:12

NB:

Translators of the Bible, in essence, said, "the violent ones take the kingdom by force." The Urantia Book clarifies it. The Midwayers who wrote part IV used the term, "spiritual assault" in paper 155. They conveyed the Master’s words to help us, in essence: To replace "violent ones who take the kingdom by force " with "brave ones who establish the kingdom by spiritual assault". 

The Endowment of Life

"All this power which is inherent in Jesus—the endowment of life—and which enabled him to rise from the dead, is the very gift of eternal life which he bestows upon kingdom believers, and which even now makes certain their resurrection from the bonds of natural death." - Urantia Book 190:0.2

Eternal Life, The Power Of The Endless Life

Jesus, the Master said:

I am the bread of life. I am the open door to eternal salvation. I am the reality of endless life. I am the living link between time and eternity.

I am the resurrection and the life. I am the secret of eternal survival. I am the way, the truth, and the life.

(Please, see Urantia Book 182:1.10-25)

As a faith-liberated soul, a born again, spirit-born believer, you have this power inside of you right now. Please, what are you doing with it? 💖🙏✨️ Learn how to make use of it. Contact us: https://www.christmichaelcenter.org/contact-us

The level of psychic or cosmic circle you are at plays a very, very big role in your ability to manifest attributes of eternal life - the God-kind of life, the power of the endless life! Oh! Hallelujah!

Texts:

• The Seven Psychic Circles, UB 110:6.1-22

• Guardian angels assignment to you, based on the psychic or cosmic circle you have attained, UB 113:1.1-8

Urantia Book 49:6.8 "2. _Mortals of the individual orders of ascension_. The individual progress of human beings is measured by their successive attainment and traversal (mastery) of the seven cosmic circles. These circles of mortal progression are levels of associated intellectual, social, spiritual, and cosmic-insight values. Starting out in the seventh circle, mortals strive for the first, and all who have attained the third immediately have personal guardians of destiny assigned to them. These mortals may be repersonalized in the morontia life independent of dispensational or other adjudications."

Eternal Life, Partial and Full

You, as a kingdom believer, a spirit-born soul, a born again soul, already have eternal life. Please, see this:

Urantia Book 147:3.3, "In speaking to those assembled, Jesus said: "...Verily, verily, I say to you: He who hears the gospel of the kingdom and believes in this teaching of sonship with God, has eternal life; already are such believers passing from judgment and death to light and life...""

Urantia Book 153:2.11, "...Jesus stood up and said: “...Every one who yields to the teaching of the Father’s indwelling spirit will eventually come to me. Not that any man has seen the Father, but the Father’s spirit does live within man. And the Son who came down from heaven, he has surely seen the Father. And those who truly believe this Son already have eternal life.""

You go through what we may call partial levels of activations of the eternal life of God. The level or degree of eternal life, of the power of the endless life that you show, express, or manifest depends on your level of combined intellectual and spiritual growth. Eternal life becomes fully activated in you after you fuse with your spirit, the still, small voice within, your Thought Adjuster. This fusion is eternal at-one-ness with God - eternal oneness with God. Upon attaining this very high status, it becomes totally impossible for you to lose your salvation. Your eternal security becomes a full, total, and complete guarantee. You cannot forsake the will of the Paradise Father anymore. Please, see this:

Urantia Book 40:7.1, "The sending of Adjusters, their indwelling, is indeed one of the unfathomable mysteries of God the Father. These fragments of the divine nature of the Universal Father carry with them the potential of creature immortality. Adjusters are immortal spirits, and union with them confers eternal life upon the soul of the fused mortal."

Urantia Book 111:3.1, "The mistakes of mortal mind and the errors of human conduct may markedly delay the evolution of the soul, although they cannot inhibit such a morontia phenomenon when once it has been initiated by the indwelling Adjuster with the consent of the creature will. But at any time prior to mortal death this same material and human will is empowered to rescind such a choice and to reject survival. Even after survival the ascending mortal still retains this prerogative of choosing to reject eternal life; at any time before fusion with the Adjuster the evolving and ascending creature can choose to forsake the will of the Paradise Father. Fusion with the Adjuster signalizes the fact that the ascending mortal has eternally and unreservedly chosen to do the Father’s will."

The Great Tribulation

💖🙏🌄
Greetings! 

The so-called great tribulation has happened already. And may happen again. When followers of Jesus were being murdered left, right, and center, at some point during the Roman Empire, that indeed was a great tribulation. 

When Jihadist Muslims did a similar thing in Egypt, Syria, Turkey, etc... ...Those indeed were great tribulations. Even today, some followers of "The Way" - disciples of Jesus, are facing tribulations in some communities around the world. 

The Urantia Book reveals that the Biblical Book of Revelation, as we have it today, is missing a lot of information. Portions have been lost. Some parts have been removed; some edited by humans. This is why, as it is today, it's a difficult book to understand. 

Urantia Book 139:4.14
"When in temporary exile on Patmos, John wrote the Book of Revelation, which you now have in greatly abridged and distorted form. This Book of Revelation contains the surviving fragments of a great revelation, large portions of which were lost, other portions of which were removed, subsequent to John’s writing. It is preserved in only fragmentary and adulterated form."

To my understanding, the antichrist and tribulation that the Apostle John talked about have already happened. Yes, they may happen again because history can repeat itself. Nevertheless, we are still on course, on a great march towards the era of light and life: Please, read The Urantia Book Paper 55, "The Spheres of Light and Life", https://www.urantia.org/urantia-book-standardized/paper-55-spheres-light-and-life. Thank you. 🙏💖🙏🏾
