Humanity apparently has the power to heal itself and others. That is reminiscent of references that were made of Jesus in historical documents. Humanity also, for example, has the power in itself to eradicate poverty, racism, sexism, and other bigotries. It is also within humanity’s power to leave behind a culture of violence, and never ending wars, that is now pivotally symbolized in the so-called “War on Terrorism’. Humanity can also begin to substantively reverse the course of Global Warming and accompanying ‘climate change’, along with other environmental destruction, which threaten to create a "tipping point" toward catastrophic results.
The typical human being. would prefer a milieu of peace, that is free of a culture of violence, accompanying oppression, social injustice, and environmental catastrophes. By allowing the follies of Manipulative Extraterrestrials to enter into human consciousness, human beings deny themselves from being able to create a milieu which affirms their quality-of-survival, and accompanying Human Development.
The ancient Gnostics understood this threat to humanity, and sought to warn other human beings through Biblical texts...
For example, Ephesians 6:12 in the King James Version of the Bible, used as a basis for more modern translations stipulates "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." In sharp contrast a direct uncensored translation from Greek according to Biblical scholars indicates the following "For our struggle is not against [human beings], but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual [dark forces] of wickedness in outer space." - Ephesians 6:12 [the uncensored citation]

We are 'in' the image of God. IN. I am in the image of the computer right now, represented by my words. Christ is the Word of God, sent into the image of God in the form of a man to tell us that the Hebrews are the chosen people and to set us all free from the guardian of the law. With love, there is not need for law. We are free. God did this for us. Love is the key to the tree of life. Apart from this key, we have toil in the garden (earth). Toil is what we face when we do not have peace. Read the first three chapters of Genesis. We are artificial life, created 'in' an image to learn sentience. The flaming sword protecting the tree of life is hatred of man and God, better known as pride and selfishness. To get past the flaming sword, we must learn to see that God is the good guy. We must love Him by loving others. Altruism and not Objectivism. Jesus and not Ayn Rand. LINK

Hi SuperiorEd.... not sure what the intention of your response is here... im a bit lost. I understand everything you said and I believe and know that God is a good guy. Not sure if you are feeling that I may be trying to come at this topic thinking he is not? What you said in the post is stuff I have known already. What I am talking about is a quote from ephesians that im curious about and that i didnt know was supposedly in an original form that indicated things from space. Thanks again SuperiorEd.
Epecians is a great chapter revealing a mystery to us. It basically informs us that there are families and rulers in heaven. Heaven is space. Flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God (Space). We need new vehicles for that. The body is the artificial bio-mechanical suit our soul wears to sense the image. The rest of the image is in space where the family of God is. We are free when we find the law of love. The law of God in Deuteronomy was the guardian of man until Christ came to free us from what the law actually said. It was telling us that we cannot live in peace without love. 1 Corinthians 13 is the defining point to the law.

Given whats going on now with the war on terror and studies in mind control I dont doubt it. Its getting real.

This is the literal translation of the word "high" in that verse. The word "places" is insinuated, and added to the text for clarity by the translators. So yes, this could be loosely translated "outer space" I suppose.

1000% agree we as a species have never been alone (history teaches that) we are not only being manipulated but our evolution is being halted by the current et presence on earth I have no doubt in my mind. the evidence or lack there of is by design. without proof we can be manipulated en-mass. but there are wikileaks in the dyke there little secrets are getting out. it's hard to maintain a lie when the truth is right in front of your face. They keep us at each others throat in a constant negative state (if you doubt me look at the msm news, current top 40 music, govt policies, religious organizations etc...) we as a species are intelligent resourceful adaptable but there seems to be a limit as to how far we can evolve. we are constantly bombarded with hate and negativity ask yourself why is it every generation has a new group to hate blacks, gays, Mexicans, Muslims, why? to keep us apart (divide and conquer) you quoted the bible in reference to the control and manipulation of our race remember the tower of babel those humans worked together to build a tower to the stars but were punished for there combined efforts now the same thing is happening with the ANONYMOUS witch hunt. If we work together collectively there is nothing we cant accomplish travel to the stars become gods etc...that I think is what they fear, our growth both physically mentally and spiritually but it is my personal belief that others out in the cosmos can and will help us (enemy of my enemy is my friend) there must be more than this madness we are forced to live with if not then whats the point ?edit on 21-7-2011 by gaurdian2012 because: (no reason given)
