The Damascus Scribe is the Teacher

The Scribe: “To live a fair and righteous life is like climbing a mountain the very pinnacle of which you are to reach at the very end of your days on this earth. There is a good and healthy reward for lazily sauntering up the eastern slope of your mountain. It is this eastern side where you can climb at a leisurely pace, almost unobservedly gaining in height by just a 1 in 20 rise. This eastern side of the mountain is the easiest side and suits the father or mother who will provide for their spouse and teach the children what is right and leave the neighbors in peace.

“To live a difficult yet righteous life is like climbing that mountain from the northern slope which is exhausting, quite steep and boulder strewn. There is time to catch one’s breath by sitting on a boulder, but the north face is a cold life’s journey. The southern slope of our mountain is similarly steep but the entire way up is through thick jungle-like ground cover. Moreover, it is a hot and tiring path to your life’s journey. Of course it is your choice entirely if you are to take the northern or southern path up that mountain. North or south will suit the mother or father who will teach the children what is right, provide for them and the spouse and have time to spare to give to friends and neighbors alike, care for the sick and be teachers and healers.

“So very few are those who climb the western side of the mountain, for it has a near vertical cliff face, few hand- and footholds and it cannot be scaled without special gear and rope ladders in the fight with a wet and slippery rock-face and with a sharp wind whistling by. These are the achievers who will accept any temporary ‘punishment’ in their lives on terra firma to honor their Master Michael and ensure their future arrival at a much better place with all those they got to know during their long climbs up that steep wall to the top. Their sheer strength of will and endurance allows them to stay with the task, to heal the ills, to clear so many confused minds, to teach the undeniable truths, relate explicit beauty and unequivocal goodness and become the example for others through that tough climb to the top and to finally rest from their exhaustion.

“However, what extensive rewards will ever and again greet those who accepted the western approach, the short-term pain to be Michael’s servants, His trusted bellwethers in their short years, no sooner begun as to come to an end, on terra firma of a decimal planet.

“We entice you to seriously consider a break from the routine of ambling leisurely to the summit and taking on the western approach to be one of Michael’s apostles and have many follow you and Gather the everywhere-present Fruits of the Spirit.

“Such is the way, indeed; all must climb this mountain as your Planetary Prince, Machiventa Melchizedek, made clear to you.

“I greet you, My son. I am the Damascus Scribe. Talk with Me often.”

Divine Mercy

Divine Mercy

Thought Adjuster Is The Teacher

Thought Adjuster: “When a creature chooses to do the Father’s will and live striving to be the best they can become, they will always encounter experiences along their path that confirm their decision and inspire their actions. These experiences include an increasingly clear understanding of the divine purpose and how one fits into this purpose, progressive revelations of truth that offer a more complete view of reality, wisdom to face challenges with more courage by finding dynamic and original solutions, and a growing trust in the care of the invisible Father through an expanding revelation of His unconditional love in our lives, which brings about lasting peace that transcends the appearances of the material world.

These are the fruits of the spirit, and any human being who has reaped even a little of these fruits in their life will naturally want more. This is all the confirmation needed to maintain focus and effort towards achieving self-mastery and the eventual perfection of personality. However, at the beginning, only faith can provide the impetus to undertake the task of uplifting oneself, for spiritual fruits are always the result of the struggle for perfection; therefore, they cannot be known or appreciated without a human first making a conscious effort.

This is why life offers ample opportunities for each person to decide to take a better path and live more productively. Most of the problems humans face in the world are the consequences of their individual and collective actions. When a creature, due to lack of wisdom, chooses the path of ego satisfaction, they will inevitably face the consequences sooner or later. At that moment, they must choose whether to attempt an alternative course of action or continue with their old, selfish ways of thinking.

Truly, the entire universe seems to conspire to promote spirituality in human beings. However, the final choice is always free and is a decision made without any coercion. Neither the Father nor any of His 'agents' will ever force a mortal to choose the path of the spirit. Nor are there punishments or reprisals for choosing the wrong path; but when a creature tries to live in contradiction to the laws of the universe – love – the only possible outcome is death. Just as in this world food sustains your material bodies, in the entire creation it is unconditional love that sustains the spirit, and rejecting this love is like someone deciding to stop eating in the material world.

You can be assured that no one will be judged unjustly when determining the aptitude for eternal life. Throughout your life, you will have many opportunities to choose to rise above your perceived limitations and begin to work to forge a new being of light and beauty with the help of God’s presence within you. Only when you have definitively rejected the light and knowingly chosen a path different from the Father’s will of love will you bring true and final death to your own soul. However, even then, if there remains but a glimmer of the desire to be better, divine mercy will forgive everything, and the Father will show you a new path while waiting with open arms for you to enter the kingdom as His beloved children.”

The Salt of the Earth

The Salt of the Earth

The Beloved

Is The Teacher

The Beloved: “It delights Me that it is becoming easier to teach and lead you. You are becoming more diligent in applying the fruits of the spirit in your daily life. It is with great pleasure that I see a measure of growth in your inner life. The more you apply yourself and gain the necessary confidence and trust in My guidance, the more the clouds will clear. In a greater measure you will perceive the blessings that are so abundant in life, and are being taken for granted by most.

Even such a simple matter as taking a breath with ease, becomes a subject of appreciation when you see others struggle for their breath. Life is not the easiest on this planet, and it is made more difficult when there are still some nefarious and unawakened ones, who for their temporary material greed pollute the planet on purpose, especially the very air you breathe and the water you drink. Even the food chain, is being poisoned thereby.

But I tell you this: The closer you stay with Me, the healthier you will be, because a well-balanced and stable inner life provides benefits beyond measure to your mental state and your physical cells and atoms, and as well, it changes your DNA structure.

Everything in you partakes of this joyous trust and faith you are building in Me, and a calm demeanor will be the result. For others, there is the benefit of healing when in the presence of such a fragrant personality, who by her or his very presence uplifts the immediate surroundings.

This is the path you and I endeavor to walk, and thus far you are learning your lessons well by applying them. It is now no longer necessary for you to keep your light hidden in a corner. I desire for you to become the yeast, so everyone around you may also rise. In this fashion, the whole planet is uplifted, one person at a time.

This is what is meant when someone is called the salt of the earth!”
