Scripture and the present
QUESTION: Masters, all the wars on this our beloved mother Earth have been to establish false kingdoms on this planet. Christ said my kingdom is not of this world. A city without any walls. A kingdom of Grace. Why is it most people blindly give away their power to the authorities that govern us. The authorities dwell above us, so it is they who will rule over us. Our savior said, “it is you who will rule over them, but only when you rid yourself of gods and take on the protection of the light and enter the bridal chamber. We have the divine spark of creation within us. My question is what happens next? ~Paul, Scotland
ANSWER: What happens next is more of the same. Souls come to the duality of Earth in order to face negativity and exercise their freedom of choice while learning the lessons they chose. The first step is for them is to recognize that they have the ability to make their own choices and do not have to do things the way they have always been done in this society.
It is the belief system of society that tells you to obey the authorities. Many see acquiescence as a way not to have to make their own decisions or take responsibility for their actions. This simply continues their youth, when parents told them what to do. They were not threatened when they gave power to their parents, so why not keep going?
War is a way in which large numbers of people can have the same type of experience in being controlled and being in control. Most of the conflicts on the planet at this time have to do with ideologies; a great deal of them are religious. The quotes you included in your question are all from Christian beliefs, which are in the minority on the planet in this century. Countries and religions fight for their faith. They are following the path they chose for this lifetime.
Souls are broken off from Source, so your essence is divine. To capture that essence and use your powers, you have to exercise your freedom of choice, take back all your power, and raise yourself out of judgment and reliance upon your ego. That way, you will follow the mandates of your quotes, leave the negativity of the third-dimensional Earth energy, and enter into the light of all positive energy surrounded by unconditional love. You can be there, and the world can still go on its merry way fighting its battles. The choice is yours!
