As always, I do not begin to pray without making a personal effort. As I make that effort I know that I am not alone in my need to find the right thread that will lead me out of the maze of awareness that becomes the obscurity of my own incomplete being.

I can only become complete when at the end of my earthly life, the pure light of IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT is for me the beginning and the end of the New Creation out of which all evil has been excluded.

We are not told why but, for some reason, today Jesus has led his Apostles to a pagan sanctuary at the foot of Mount Hermon. 

We can, however, surmise, for it is a place where the corruption that was destroying the faith that was founded on Abraham, Moses and the Prophets was preeminently manifest in the pagan temples that had been constructed both by Philip the Tetrarch and his father Herod, "Kings of the Jews".

So much has happened since those days when "Jesus walked"; so much has been thought, said and done. But on that day in the awe-inspiring natural beauty that can still been seen in photographs of  Banias; our God who knew that his creation was "good" singled out one of his creation to bear the responsibility of leading all of mankind along the Way, that in itself was also both Truth and Life and would be guaranteed by God until the end of time.

The events of History have convinced me that it is mankind in its freedom that is responsible for the accumulation of the billions of individual temporal words and deeds that we mis-name as God's Providence. 

Jesus chose Peter, face to face. Peter denied Jesus. Peter pleaded for forgiveness. Jesus reaffirms Peter.  Peter begins to fulfill his mission. Peter is finally accepted from a cross.

Paul persecuted the first believers. He, the person Saul, was blasted into belief and thereafter obeyed the will of the Lord to the extent that he is able to express to Timothy his  absolute faith that he is during his life being welcomed into the Eternity of Salvation.

I am sure that God did not intend for his Church that he founded in the presence of the physical witness of the failure of his people Israel to do his will, to become as quickly corrupt as did the Institution he founded on St Peter.

The developments in both Rome and Constantinople before the end of the first millennium, however,  show us a Church  completely  subsumed in the "things of this world".

The decision to liberate Jerusalem, the Crusades, which opens the second Christian millennium could only have happened because each Christian individual involved  chose to personally ignore the spiritual calling  of the Ten Commandments and the words of Christ. "My Kingdom is not of this world". 

Eighty generations of us have passed away since the time Jesus not only walked and talked but  suffered unimaginably to become the only deed that could become the Salvation needed to ensure the Advent of a New Creation. 

We "Gen 80" can only use our Freedom to know that this is true for even the most intelligent of us is limited to only understanding physical matter that is nothing greater than the dust from which we are all created and to which our bodies will all return.

We can all, however, be sure that we are able to be bathed in loving grace if our hearts are opened with a sincere desire to become "people of God" and thus become able to return to Our Father the thanks that will open for us a place in the New Heavens where God will be All-in-All and sin no more.
