What causes spiritual warfare?


Why were the Jewish priests so upset by the teachings of Jesus?
Why did the Catholic Church institute the Inquisition?
Why are these same unfortunate events still happening in different parts of the world today? 


Why is my God or belief system so much better than your God or belief system that I feel the need to kill you?

It is important to understand that there are 2 very different ways to reach the attainment of enlightenment. Both are based on the fundamental belief system of the person or society.

1.    The Apprentice, animus or ego-based system. This system assumes that everyone has ego. The belief is that everyone is born in sin and must kill the ego that is the culprit of all that is bad in the world.

a.    The fundamental belief is that God is separate from the self.
                                              i.     Spiritual attainment is about returning to, working toward union, or re-union with God.
b.    Anyone who claims to be God, One with God, Son of God or King of any religion is a total egomaniac or megalomaniac that needs to be destroyed to protect the society. (a Hitler or Napoleon type that will bring war. Or even worse a David Koresh cult type.)
c.    This is a path of death. Killing ego, and sacrifice. Killing those who exhibit an overabundance of ego.
                                              i.     Once all ego is dead, then great abundance will be given.
d.    In this scenario God is the respected leader or commander whose system of justice works by karma - just, fair, righteous. You follow because you know it is the right thing to do, otherwise punishment is a foregone conclusion.


2.    The Virgin, anima, or egoless-based system. This system assumes that everyone is egoless. The belief is that everyone is a unique and beautiful expression of God or child of God. The Father gives Grace to strengthen an otherwise weak or childlike personality.

a.    The fundamental belief is that self is not and cannot be separate from God and His creation. 
                                              i.     Spiritual attainment is all about being a beneficial presence in the world, a piece in the puzzle of God’s plan, or doing God’s Will.
b.    The point of the practice is to find the “I AM.” This is the point where you know what is your purpose or place in the scheme of life.
c.    This path is a path of life. Growing into your purpose. Encouraging others to grow into their purpose.
                                              i.     Once you know and accept your destiny, God will see his that you complete the mission. There is nothing and no one who can stop it from coming to pass.
d.    In this scenario, God is Daddy. A loving and overindulgent Father. When you follow God’s will, God gives more Grace. You do what is asked because you love Him dearly and want to do as much for Him as He does for you. not because He commands it. (What is asked is always something that will help society as a whole and not necessarily bring personal acclaim or wealth.)

When you mix and match these paths you get a TOTAL MESS! It is like mixing matter and anti-matter. Both Ways explode into totally ridiculous garbage about dogma and the terrible loss of human life.


When you mix and match these belief systems you get the God as Father is a tyrant.


When you mix and match these belief systems you get the idea that religion neglects the Divine Feminine.


When you mix and match these belief systems you get spiritual leaders killing those of  the other belief system.


Choose one Way and follow it to the end. 
Both are valid paths that will lead you to the center, truth, and light.

There is no right or wrong way in the world.
There is a right or wrong way for each person.

Only those who have traveled both roads or completed both Ways 
have the credentials to judge those of either Way accurately.


I have put before you life and death . . .


Choose the path that will give you the best possible outcome 
AND 
allow everyone else to do the same. 

Then and only then will the warfare based on spiritual belief end forever.
