Selfishness is a True Declaration of Life's Purpose
From the moment we are born, we are talk to be selfless, to think about others first and deny ourselves at our own expense. How can one give if we have nothing to give, if we are not allowed to collect abundance, whether it is love or money? It is our nature to be selfish and to...

Be Aware of the Supreme Deceiver (Part 1)
Man is extensively ignorant of the evil that lurks within. We are not cognizant of all the dirt and filth and meanness that reside in our hearts; the supreme deceiver.

Enlightenment, Moving to a New Level of Awareness
This channelled message from Joseth was personal, and I am reluctant to publish these types of articles. However there was a purpose and that purpose was revealed in the last paragraphs of this article, I trust there is something there for you and for that reason I am sharing it with you.

God Became Man
The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. --JOHN 1:14
For thirty-three years Jesus felt everything you and I have ever felt. To think of Jesus in such a light is—well, it seems almost irreverent, doesn’t it? It’s not something we like to do; it’s uncomfortable. It is much easier to keep the humanity out of the incarnation. There is something about keeping Him divine that keeps Him distant, packed, predictable. But don’t do it. For heaven’s sake, don’t. Let Him be as human as He intended to be. Let Him into the mire and muck of our world. For only if we let Him in can He pull us out. Listen to Him.

A Merry Heart is Like a Medicine
Our bodies, like the body of Christ (the church) work best when every part is strong and healthy. But when one part develops an illness, our first reaction is to seek a doctor's advice for treatment so that we can ward off any further complications. If we don't take the necessary steps to healing, we become vulnerable for more serious complications to arise. This is also true among the church of believers. As a true Christian we must counterattack a
brethren who is falling ill and needs spiritual medicine for healing. How can you recognize a sickness?

Be Filled With The Spirit!
Be filled with the Spirit.… always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. -EPHESIANS 5:18, 20
Some years ago, a couple traveled from their home in Chicago to Arrowhead Springs to talk to me about an idea they had. “We heard your lecture on how to be filled with the Holy Spirit. Our lives have been dramatically changed as a result,” they said enthusiastically. “We have come to encourage you to go on national television to tell Christians everywhere how they can know the Holy Spirit and experience His revolutionary impact in and through their lives.”
I am humbly grateful to God for the privilege of teaching these great truths concerning the Holy Spirit to tens of millions of people through-out the world, often with the same dramatic results this couple enjoyed. To be effective lighthouses for Jesus Christ, we must be empowered by the Holy Spirit. Without that filling, we will fail miserably in our spiritual lives and accomplish little to reach other people for Christ.

Where is Your Focus?
You really want to be spiritual, but things keep getting in the way. Distractions, noisy and unsettling, come between you and where you want to focus your attention. True spirituality involves developing the ability, not to get rid of the annoyances, but to look past them, or even to see through them to view what is really significant and permanent.

What to Expect From the Next Transformation
Humanity has been talking about it for centuries. The next transformation is already here and it becomes a matter of choice. Life after transformation may not be what you expect. Those that are left behind will not even know it has happened. This last century has brought the last words about this event.

You Are Not Your Stuff
We humans are a funny, funny breed. We spend our entire lives working and working and working to acquire ‘stuff’. We buy and surround ourselves with the biggest, fanciest this or that when all the while what we really need and want is something you can’t buy anywhere. The thing we all spend our time doing is looking to experience a feeling of significance

Anamchara - The Value of Ritual
We all have rituals.
For most of us these rituals are unconscious. We might sit in the same chair every time we are at a meeting. We might do certain actions in a certain way each morning without realising it. We become creatures of habit. Our lives run in well-set grooves and we hate these routines being disturbed. We protect ourselves against change while all around us change happens.

Mystics have always queried the essence of life. I discuss my view of what they discovered. It is an opinion derived from my study of quantum mechanics and the study of Eastern religions.
