from Jesus:
I have already commented
in great detail about Lucifer and about evil elsewhere.
However, let me comment on the name Lucifer and the meaning “lightbearer.”
Many American parents give their sons the first name of George in honor
of America's first president. Not every little boy named George ends
up becoming president of the United States.
Lucifer was created by God, and as all other beings created by God,
Lucifer was given a spiritual flame, a spiritual potential. As all other
beings, Lucifer was given free will. He was given the name, Lucifer,
because his spiritual potential was to bring light everywhere he went.
No soul is created in full perfection. The soul is created with a potential,
but it is up to the soul to walk a gradual path that allows it to fulfill
its spiritual potential and then go beyond.
In Lucifer’s case, he made the choice to abandon his spiritual
potential and to rebel against God and God's purpose for creation. Specifically,
Lucifer rebelled against the need to expand creation by creating the
system of worlds in which you now live. As a result of this rebellion,
Lucifer was cast outside of the original sphere of God. This was not
God’s original will or intent, but it was the result of Lucifer’s
misuse of his free will.
After Lucifer was cast out, he retreated to the lowest level of God's
creation, namely the material universe. His spiritual potential was
to bring light, but that light had to come from God. Since he cut himself
off from God, Lucifer could no longer receive light directly from God.
So he had to steal light from those who were receiving light from God.
This then is the entire modus operandi of the dark forces who are using
all kinds of clever schemes to steal light from human beings. One of
these schemes is to cause people to feel sympathy for the Devil.
To ensnare people, the dark forces use a very clever and very subtle
form of logic, which I like to call serpentine logic. Here is one example
of such logic:
Personally Lucifer,
if he exists, has a bum wrap. I think he was only doing what his nature
impelled him to do.
Lucifer did not do what his
nature impelled him to do. His nature impelled him to bring light, yet
God gave everyone free will. When you have free will, you have the potential
to rebel against God’s will and God’s law. God has given
you the possibility of making that choice, but that does not mean that
God wants you to make that choice. This is simply a mechanical aspect
of free will. If you cannot rebel against God, you do not truly have
free will. However, do not fall for the serpentine lie that says that
you can exercise your free will only by rebelling against God. That
is simply an illusion which springs from the carnal mind.
To say that Lucifer did what his nature impelled him to do is a complete
fallacy. This statement is the perfect example of the subtle serpentine
logic that the dark forces have been spreading on this planet for a
very long time. I am not blaming people for falling prey to this subtle
logic, because it truly has penetrated almost every area of human culture.
Nevertheless, it is my role as a spiritual teacher to help people rise
beyond the serpentine logic that causes them to remain trapped in the
lower state of consciousness. Therefore, I must expose this logic, and
I must do so with no possibility of human interpretations.
Even the great sacrifice and the ancient of days, Sanat Kumara
is a Lucifer.
Sanat Kumara is a lightbearer
or lightbringer. However, I don’t follow the line of reasoning
which says that because the name Lucifer means lightbearer, everyone
who brings light is a Lucifer. I might have agreed with this line of
reasoning if Lucifer had indeed lived up to his spiritual potential
and had brought light into this world. Since he did not do so, I see
no reason to use his name to represent the opposite of what he now stands
for.
you yourself were Satan well i should say a Satan, for you
were an adversary to the Jewish genius of evil that they created.
And you are now a Satan to orthodox Christianity.
Again, this is a perfect
example of the subtle serpentine logic. The idea here is that evil is
a necessary part of creation. I have already explained the fallacy of
this line of reasoning in great detail elsewhere.
In this context let me say that although I was in opposition to the
orthodox Jewish authorities, the reality of the situation was that I
was simply being who I am as a representative of God.
I did not come to be in opposition to anyone. I came to be a representative
of God on Earth. I was for God not against any human
being. However, this inevitably puts me in opposition to the people
and the forces who are rebelling against God and God’s law. Nevertheless,
I did not create that opposition. The opposition and the confrontation
is created by those who rebel against God.
There is no need for God to have an opposite, and the absolute good
of God truly has no opposite polarity.
So in this sense connecting Lucifer, the radiant star god
with you"... because compassion the essence of Jesus' teachings."
these quotes were lifted form an essay entitled "Some light on
Lucifer" by Ina Belderis.
I can assure you that there
is no connection between Lucifer and myself. My teachings are based
on compassion for those who are trapped in the lower state of consciousness.
Lucifer himself had absolutely no compassion towards anyone, and his
entire activity was based on the desire to entrap people in the lower
state of consciousness.
There is no need to worry about Lucifer because he is no longer in existence.
He has gone through the final judgment and the second death. There are
however many non-material beings who carry on the work of Lucifer. There
are also human beings in embodiment who have aligned themselves with
the dark forces and thereby become willing or unwilling instruments
of such forces.
If you are serious about spiritual growth, you need to become wise as
serpents so that you can see through the serpentine logic of these forces
and avoid becoming ensnared by it. Everything such forces stand for
will work against your spiritual growth.
The essence of spiritual growth is that the truth will set you free.
The essence of all dark forces is that their lives are based on lies.
Therefore, seek the truth of God and leave behind the serpentine “truth”
of the dark forces.
