Episode 2: Finding Purposeful Existence: Aligning Personal Growth with the Universe’s Plan

You have a purpose. Why don't you know what your purpose is? The first two aspects of your purpose are to live long and prosper. The third aspect is to create a stable civilization that will allow all who wish to participate the opportunity to move the human race forward. Where Out to the stars, to discover all that God has waiting for us. This is your purpose. Your purpose is to succeed.

What forces are against you? Why can you not seem to do what is right, even when you know what right is? Who wants you to fail? How can these forces of destruction influence you to fail and end the human race's opportunity? The answers to all these questions are in the Bible. Why don't you already know the answers if they have been collected into a book with at least 60 translations in English?

All right, there's no talking about the bible without talking about religion, because religions have used it for thousands of years. So what is religion? We're told that we lived in the post-Christian era. That's not quite correct. We live in the post-Christian religion era. Why was religion created? Religion was created for Christians. It started with the Israelites, who would then become the Jews. By operating their religion, by telling God we're not good enough, we aren't capable of doing all that you ask. We aren't mature enough capable of doing all that you ask. We aren't mature enough. And if you read to the end of the first book of Deuteronomy, the first chapter of Deuteronomy, then you'll find that they were correct and God accepted this from them that they were not mature enough and they were not capable.

Now, part of the contract between them and God and the contract is in Deuteronomy that they would get better and they would work as a community to get better. And he gave them their heads, so to speak, on this and let them try. Of course, we know it didn't work out, they didn't live up to their promises and God canceled the contract and they still want to believe that the contract's in force, even though they didn't live up to their end of it. And of course, we know that Jesus was sent to try and reinitiate the contract with him, with the Jewish people, and that they rejected him and the reinitiation of that contract. So what is it about? Religion that is a waste of time and resources. Religion appeals to those who like superstition, who want someone else to be in control, who want someone else to be responsible for them and their actions. And of course, we know from God that no one else is responsible for us. To God, we are responsible for ourselves.

The Christian religion was created Jews, who really wanted the Jewish people to recommit, to reinitiate the contract, but they didn't. And when they refused and said that they would not, then they said they took Jesus's words to heart, not only that it would eventually be for all people, but they said all right, we're allowing it for all people because Jesus said it was for all people, and that's correct. The Jews were supposed to spread the word to the rest of the world. They didn't, they kept it for themselves and they destroyed it by doing so. But the Christian religion has tried to spread it to the world, but what they spread was the superstitious part, the religious part. They did not spread the word that God had sewn into the Bible, which is basically a remedial workbook for mankind. We needed the remedial workbook because the Jews, on our behalf, refused to do what they were asked to do, what they agreed to do. So it's up to us to use the words that were spoken to and in context with God.

Moses' words, to go back to the beginning is where the third question why are you here on earth comes from, and that's in Deuteronomy 4. Earth comes from, and that's in Deuteronomy 4. The first two questions are supposed to be inimical to you, and that is who are you? What are you? Now? The what are you is not only personal and individual, it's also corporate. What are you as an individual member of the human race? And that's the part that the Jews decided to sow into their community and just leave it not as a question. We're not a part of their community, so we need to break it out into the question.

It was originally given to us as the seventh day when they were not supposed to labor. They were supposed to consider these three questions. They were supposed to work on answering them and over time their maturation rate would improve, their ability to build a civilization would improve and God's plan would go forward, not from the get-go, but as we matured, as we became more available to the intricate knowledge that was there for us. And that's what has happened. We have gotten to the point that we now can understand that it is the structural part of God's word that we need to pay attention to.

There's no doubt your life will go very well if you do it 100% of the time, but none of us are really capable of that. We like our animal natures. That's fine, but there is a time when you have to put that aside and make decisions based on logic, reason and wisdom, just the way the Bible describes. Now you're going to hear me talk about purpose, either before this program or after it, either before this program or after it, and I'll let you know that the two first aspects of purpose are to live long and prosper. That's also in a science fiction television show.

Leonard Nimoy was Jewish and took it straight out of the Bible, was Jewish and took it straight out of the Bible. The character that he portrayed as Spock straight out of the Bible and the attitude that the Jews had toward that characterization 100%. Only logical, only rational and only wisdom checked was straight out of the Bible. Today we know that we cannot live that way and still be 100% human. But we can restrict the time that we live that way to decisions that are important, that will help us build a civilization so that it is stable and that we can go to the stars.

Now, how did we know that our civilization is not stable? Look around you. The Western civilization, especially as it exists in the United States, is the most progressive civilization ever to exist that we know of on earth. And yet, at the same time, we have members who are losing hope and just striking out and killing whoever's near them because they are angry. They feel that they have been misled, and that's because our civilization, against our founders' wishes, was tied to religion rather than the Bible. If you check out our founders, you'll find that, to a man, only one of them attended religious services, but all of them were biblical scholars. You probably didn't know that, because religions tend to hide the kind of information that doesn't put them in a good light, because they're only human. Everything about religion is human. It was designed by humans for humans, to control human behavior. Religionists are salesmen who sell the sizzle and never have to deliver the product. Now, you shouldn't hate religionists or religion. They did get us here painfully, wastefully, but we are here and part of our maturation process has been living through religion, and we're now on the other side of that. We are now in post-christian religion america.

But just because you reject religion does not mean that you reject God. In reality, you have to reject religion in order to find God, and that's something that no religious practitioner will ever tell anyone of their membership. That's because they don't understand it, they don't believe it. They are totally sucked into drinking the Kool-Aid of their beliefs. And belief is where we went wrong Genesis 3, 6. And I don't have it up in front of me and I should, but I will go through it and explain. It's only two sentences long, but it tells you what original sin was.

Original sin was not just disobeying God. Original sin was not just disobeying God. Original sin was accepting information from an outside source that did not have our best interest at heart. So we did not vet the source of the information and we trusted that information and the source and we made a life-changing decision based on that information and that source, plus the fact that it looked good to us, to Eve, but she was our representative, and then Adam did not straighten her out. And then Adam did not straighten her out. He said wait a minute, why are you doing this? So he blindly accepted what she offered, even though she had been corrupted by a source that was not to her benefit.

Well, we're more mature now and more sophisticated, and we can now evaluate the content, evaluate the sources. Where we get the content from is good for us, and whether the understanding that will allow us to have is sufficient to make decisions based on reality rather than on belief. And that is the crux of the matter. For 6,000 plus years, we have made decisions based on perception and belief rather than on reality. Granted, we had no way of knowing what was real and what wasn't real, because we hadn't matured sufficiently to that point, but we are to that point now.

The Israelites of 3,400 years ago were too immature to understand that they did not have to be making every decision with logic, reason and wisdom, only the ones that would modify their lives. So if you like Joe's burgers better than Louie's lunch, that's a complete decision that you make out of belief and perception and do not need to base on reality. No-transcript. Then you need to use logic, reason and wisdom, just as the Bible informs us. So it's our recent maturity that allows us to look back, discern what happened, why it happened, and to go forward based on our understanding of what's required of us. This is it in a nutshell. This is why we can go forward now we still need to work. We need to reorganize our society so that it will become structurally sound. We have some time. Once people are aware of what it will take and have made their decisions either to be part of the solution as well as the problem, or only to be part of the solution as well as the problem, or only to be part of the problem then those of us who want to be part of the solution and build a future for mankind can go forward. If they don't want to participate in it, that's their choice.

One of the things that irks me is by trying to force others into this position. You cannot, you should not try. I am against abortion because it is an ending of an opportunity for a human being to be born, but if the person involved the mother, basically if she would not treat the baby well, not raise them to be a decent member of society, then I cannot stand in the way of her aborting that child. But she must realize she will take responsibility for that act, just as she took responsibility for the baby's creation. Now, if it was not her responsibility, if she was raped and she did not put herself in that position willingly, then I can understand. But at the same point she has to take responsibility. That responsibility may be lessened by the fact that she did not willingly submit, but at the same time there's no indication that that baby, once born, if loved and raised correctly, would not be a valued member of society. Even if she doesn't raise the baby but gives it up to willing, loving parents, then the baby has a chance, humanity has a chance. But this is something that people want to put as a right or as a health aspect, rather than what it truly is, which is diminishing the human race, canceling a future human. We'll have many discussions on this and much more in time to come.

In the meantime, study the bible, read deuteronomy 1, 4 and 30 and you'll understand the contract. You'll know why deuteronomy, which is the second book of the bible, is actually included. Fifth after Exodus, leviticus and Numbers. And that's because in Deuteronomy, in the contract, moses said you shall not change either add to or take away from the word of God to or take away from the word of God. So the Levites, who became the husbands, if you will, the animal husbands, the farmers of what would become the Jews, decided to break it down into what they felt their people could understand and respond to and that they would be able to manage. So Exodus is the story, leviticus is the end numbers to, basically the rules and regulations that they wanted the community who would become the Jews to live with.

And Deuteronomy, which was intended to be the second book, is actually fifth. But just because it's not the second in our panoply does not mean it does not contain a lot of information, as do the other books of the Bible. God speaks most plainly and is reported most plainly in Jeremiah what he wanted after the failure of the Jews. And that is very important for us and we'll go into that. But for now, live long and prosper, build a civilization that will reach the stars, so that we can find out what God has in mind for us. And with that I'll be signing off.
