Thus, at a stroke, personal responsibility was replaced with the profitable sale of church dispensed 'indulgences' for the pardoning of sin! Having successfuly emasculated the original teachings, the church fathers now exercised control over their flock through fear of Divine retribution and the illusion known as 'death'. At this point the ignorance of 'theology' replaced the spiritual enlightenment of the great Greek philosophers. Europe was plunged into the abyss known as the 'dark ages' of unprecedented blood-letting through distinctly UN-holy wars, inquisitions and the destruction of millions of wise-women as so-called witches.

With them was lost the precious knowledge of the ways of Nature, also taught by Jesus through the Essene wisdom. Man's unbridled intellect and sheer 'cleverness' , untempered by wisdom, yet again brought us terrible misery. Today we face even greater dangers, with religious fanatics manipulated by priestly intellectuals only too willing to use the weapons of mass destruction now available to justify their unloving and non-universal religious interpretations.

So, we have reached the end of the Second Millennium. A time when the entire race faces the long prophesied 'Second Coming' - YET WE ARE VIRTUALLY UNPREPARED SPIRITUALLY! The church, after millennia of confusion and an inability still to comprehend the universal nature of Jesus Christ's original mission, is hardly the place to look for spiritual guidance now. Its lack of understanding has in any case led to a vacuum in its authority, which has largely been usurped by fundamentalists invoking the Revelation of St John to support their narrow and cataclysmic understanding of that, until recently, incomplete prophetic text.

It is perhaps as well that the long suppressed, missing chapters of Revelations, known as the Third Book of the Apocalypse, WERE restored to humanity in 1990 by the DIRECT intervention of the 'unseen realms' . History shows us how our partners in 'Spirit' intervene whenever humanity strays too far from the spiritual path. The 'miraculous' physical manifestations of the Ten Commandments themselves and the Golden Tablets of Mormon are but examples. This time intervention was accomplished through the great advances we have made in communication technology and right over the heads of the church fathers, so that no more controls or subversion of 'the word ' would again occur at their hands.

The text , launched with my book 'Rising out of chaos' in 1994, is now safely in the hands worldwide of those who know 'The Way' and have come to bring enlightenment to this weary and confused race. Revelations 3 will now act as a lazer beam within the Christian church to expose those divisive and negative forces that have long hidden within it. Furthermore, it will isolate them from those of good will and heart-centeredness, who know no other way of expressing their spiritual devotion than through the church. Here is but a brief summary of a most enlightening text that deserves detailed study.
