The Blindness

I am sure that without our eyesight most of us would feel helpless, because we have come to rely on it.

If we turned blind we would be forced to learn to develop our other senses in order to compensate as much as possible for the lack of eyesight.

In doing so, we would develop the other senses such as hearing, smell, and touch to a greater degree than before.

Paul once wrote in a letter to the Corinthians, I Corinthians 13.12: 'For now we see in a mirror dimly (a glass darkly), but then face to face.'

Truth is like a big mosaic when we are young, and we cannot perceive the entire picture in all its clarity.

We see bits and pieces of the mosaic, and we try to connect them so that together they form an  understandable image.

When we are sincere in our walk with YHWH, He gradually reveals to us how the bits and pieces fit together, so that an image begins to unfold from the mosaic, and as long as we remain faithful to YHWH in our love for and devotion to Him, the image of Truth increases in clarity, releasing us from the stronghold of deception by the power of Truth.

We still may have difficulty in discerning the exact details, but the outline is revealed to us with clarity.

If we want to know Truth, we have to learn to avoid burying ourselves in concepts of YHWH's Truth which are based on our interpretation of how certain parts of the mosaic fit together, because as long as we hold on to the concept we have accepted as Truth we shut ourselves off from realizing how the parts of the mosaic REALLY fit together.

To know Truth we must learn to let go of our own ideas of Truth and Reality we have come to accept, and to the degree that we can let go of our own ideas, we are open to YHWH's Truth.

Faith is the element which releases us from our blindness and begins to show us the mosaic of YHWH's Truth in its entirety.

Paul's statement reminded of the movie Blind Fury featuring the Dutch actor Rutger Hauer in the role of an American soldier who was blinded during the Vietnam war.

The inhabitants of a local village in Vietnam taught him to develop his other senses to compensate for the absence of his eyesight, and he became a full-fledged Samurai warrior in the process.

He uses his new skills to help the son of a deceased friend,  a good and noble cause which challenges his lack of eyesight and draws out his skills as a Samurai warrior learning to rely on the input of his other senses.

These new skills helped him overcome and come up victorious where before he might have lost the fight if he still were able to see.

Could it be that we have come to Earth to be put in a state of spiritual Darkness for the same purpose?

In order for us to have more spiritual clarity we need to exercise discipline, we have to learn to listen very closely to YHWH's still voice guiding us in our spiritual Darkness and act the moment He speaks to us, we need to learn to develop Trust through the instruction of YHWH's voice to do one thing, and our circumstances telling us to do another.

In the conflict between the two, will we learn to listen to that still voice within because we believe that voice more than our circumstances?

Am I not describing Faith here, the 'evidence of things unseen and the certainty of things hoped for', as Paul put it?

And that is really why we have to go through the Darkness caused by this phase of Dualism, that we might grow into beings living in Faith.

It is the development of this Faith which is essential for the new phase of Creation which YHWH has in mind for us, and it is the reason why YHWH created Evil.

Faith is the strength of the Spirit, and that is the reason it needs to grow and increase in strength and intensity through the process of being challenged by the manifestation of opposites.

Our Flesh is like the blindfold worn by our Spirit, and it obstructs a clear and accurate knowledge and  understanding of the Spirit.

The Spirit is obstructed and contradicted by the Flesh, and in our Soul we receive the input of both.

The decisions we make in our Soul to follow the Spirit and reject the Flesh is part of the process of learning to live in Faith.

When we are born and we grow into adults, the dominant reality to our Soul is the physical reality, and growing up we learn to relate to this reality as the ultimate reality.

Our Soul has merged with the physical Body, yet it also is part of our Spirit.

Because of the dominant character of the physical environment to our Soul, learning to discern and listen to the silent voice of the Spirit is a process which is the equivalent of learning to find our way back home through the Darkness.

The element of Darkness is caused by our wrong relationship with our physical environment, and because this environment tends to be the dominant to the consciousness of our Soul it acts as an obstruction to the still voice of YHWH.

The process of learning to walk in Faith means the dominant consciousness of our Soul shifts from the physical to YHWH's Ruach, the Holy Spirit.

We learn to see Life through the eyes of our Spirit where before we looked at our Spirit through the eyes of our Body.

Because of the Darkness in our environment, the force of Evil manipulating that environment challenges our Soul.

It presents us with a situation where it is wise for us to move in direction A, yet the still voice of YHWH directs us to direction B.

Is our relationship with the world our physical senses can perceive so strong that we disregard the silent voice, or have we learned to develop and cultivate a relationship with the Owner of the still voice to the extent that we are willing to abandon that which is deemed as a wise move in favor of obeying the small still voice?

That is how Faith becomes stronger: through the process of being challenged by the force of Evil, Adversity, the outcome of the dualistic paradigm.

Growing in Faith then automatically becomes growing in Trust and Love to our Creator YHWH.

So the entire process of walking in spiritual Darkness for the sake of learning to grow in Faith is really a process of learning to grow in Love and Trust of our Creator.

For us to become the person our Creator YHWH intended us to be, a person ready to enter the next phase of Creation, the character of Faith needs to be carved out so that we learn to walk in complete Trust and Love for our Creator by learning to choose for Him during the process of being challenged by opposites of Faith in our walk on Earth, the walk on the road of Darkness.

The Fallen Ones seek to exploit the spiritual blindness caused by our Flesh.

They place obstructions on our path so that we fall, they set traps which wound us and make us go limp, they poke us with sharp sticks so that we end up walking in circles for their amusement, they train and domesticate us in the capacity of dumb slaves of the domain of Darkness, they seek to bind us in a prison of blindness so that they can continue their game of exploitation until the day we die.

The Evil Ones avail themselves of our blindness to steer us into their prison by creating false mirrors of Life.

In their mirror the ones who sell out to Evil receive the rewards, while the ones who hold on to what is Good are punished, isolated and rejected from their system of rewards.

The more people indulge in Sin and wallow in Evil, the more power and authority the Fallen Ones have to create false mirrors, and the less opportunity there is for those who hold fast to Good to escape the wrath of the Evil Ones upon everything which reminds them of YHWH.

Sin hooks us into the matrix of Evil, providing the Fallen Ones with the options to program us so that we come to like and cherish THEIR candidates, and reject the candidates YHWH puts forward.

Sin strengthens the cocoon of our blindness and renders us as helpless pawns in the hands of Evil Mighty Ones who exploit this weakness and program us as slaves to their cause.

The more slaves they have working for them and the more slaves occupy key positions in society, the less chance there is for someone who loves YHWH to succeed, even worse, the greater the presence of Evil, the less chance there is for YHWH's own to  make a living for themselves in a given society.

They will only let you in if you conform, if you consent, if you make a concession to your principles.

Failing that they will make you feel their wrath by excluding you from their premises, and you will find yourself left on the outside watching others receive benefits which could and should be yours.

It does not matter how much talent you have, because talent and skills are not the issue.

Conformity to Evil is what it is all about, and if you refuse, inevitably you will encounter an image of suffering reflected back at you in the mirror of the Fallen Ones.

This is the great injustice YHWH's children face in this world, especially these days as the world slides deeper into a sinkhole leading straight into hell itself.

YHWH's children all too often are degraded and abused, forced to watch how others with enslaved, dumbed-down minds receive positions of honor and esteem as a reward for their conformity.

There is a price to pay for believing in Yahshua.

YHWH's Spirit (the Ruach HaKodesh) reveals the Truth about this world, and once you discover the Truth about the deceptive games played by Fallen Beings, you become a liability to the collective, a potential threat.

It brings isolation and solitude, because the friendships of this world consist of a comradery in deception where the parties participating in the 'friendship' feed on each other and reinforce a culturally induced identity.

It brings you hardship and suffering, because the Evil One recognizes you and sees how you have grown into a threat to his system, and he will do anything in his power to destroy you.

But then again, each single one of you who are YHWH's children have experienced a measure of isolation and adversity from the day you were born.

The Evil One knows exactly who are his, and who belong to YHWH, even before we come to realize who we truly are.

From the day you were were born you have been a target for the Fallen Ones.

I wish I could tell you that once you believe in Yahshua your troubles are over, and you will live happily ever after.

Eventually you WILL live happily ever after, when the current dualistic Earth-dream is over.

But as long as you are alive on Earth as it is, the Fallen Ones and the minions who do their bidding on Earth will use every opportunity to bring suffering to YHWH's children.

I know there are religious denominations who hold up an image of smiling, happy and blessed individuals as the reward for becoming part of a particular denomination, all too often eagerly pointing out the extent of the many blessings enjoyed by the members of their particular church as a reward for their Faith.

'If you practice our religious dogma God will open up His storehouse of blessings for you'.

Yet all too often these blessings are the reward for having become an integral part of the corrupt Satanic system on this planet, and by signing on the dotted line giving your consent to be part of one of the religious wheels you sign up for a false sense of salvation, one which actually turns you into an extension of the deception.

Instead of coming out of Babylon you agreed to become a citizen of it.

That is not salvation, and those are not blessings.

Those are curses in disguise, and the salvation is camouflaged bondage to the Wicked Prince.

Yahshua came to save us from the power and consequences of Sin.

And unfortunately that is usually where any living understanding of the concept of Salvation ends.

Yes, He came to deliver us from the power of Sin so that we might be free, He came to revive our Spirit and reconnect it to YHWH's Spirit, but He also came to deliver us from bondage to the empire of Sin, the Satanic empire which, -although invisible-, becomes visible in this world in the form of a hierarchical system which can be found anywhere.

It is this latter part which most preachers, teachers and whatever-title-of-authority-the-denominations-may-use, are unable to recognize and understand, because they are part of it.

And that is a very sad comment, because the personal Salvation from the power of Sin and the Salvation of our Spirit brings about a growing awareness of Truth and the extent of deception in this world, and this awareness grows through an evolving personal relationship with YHWH.

So what other conclusion is there to draw that apparently the personal relationship with YHWH did not grow as it should and could have?

The personal relationship with YHWH is not defined and regulated by a religious dogma anymore than your personal relationship with your wife or your children is regulated by textbook procedure.

Yet the act of signing up to be part of a religious dogma equals Salvation in the minds of many people so that their Salvation becomes a fossil referring back to the moment they signed on the dotted line.

The living relationship with YHWH reveals us Truth, yet to be able to accept Truth we need to be ready for it.

The shock of seeing the Satanic deception in all its vileness upon this Earth would be too much if we suddenly were to be confronted with it, so YHWH gradually lifts the veil for His children, and they gradually begin to realize the true nature of Life on this planet.

For some the process takes many years, others are put through an accelerated process of learning the Truth.

Although YHWH's children always are the sore thumbs sticking out on Earth, the moment they are given to see the Truth about the Satanic slavery masking as freedom, they morph from a sore thumb into a living threat to the Evil Empire, and all too often the Evil One seeks to ostracize and isolate them, yes, even destroy them if possible.

Yet the ostracization of YHWH's children from the Satanic system manifesting in a given society is also its euthanasia.

Because, firstly the imbalance caused by the presence of Evil grows to proportions which cry out to be rectified (which comes in the form of destruction).

Secondly, the talents YHWH has given to His own are an asset to any given nation, a blessing for the people living in that nation, and by excluding YHWH's children from opportunities the nation ends up slicing its own wrists, due to the fact that these talents remain untapped and the nation thus bereaves itself of potential blessings.

All that remains of a nation which gives itself over to Evil is a bunch of mindless, insubstantial parrots repeating standards phrases and standard procedures, an imploding Titanic as a reminder of the omnipresent stupidity in this nation.

But, that is what the Western world has chosen for, that is what the future will bring to Western 'civilization'.

Unless the nations change and repent (which they won't), they are dooming themselves to complete extinction.

YHWH's own may suffer, but we will be granted justice and given the opportunity to shine, if not now, then upon the ashes of the nightmare the Evil Ones created for us.

My mind is boggled at the presence of so many plastic robots whose only understanding stems from the programming they were subjected to.

Never do I encounter anyone in whose Spirit I am able to see YHWH, and that is a very sad comment on the nation I live in.

Yes, there are well-intending people who mean no harm, but I cannot see YHWH's Ruach shining in them, and to them I remain a nice but awkward outsider.

And that is really what saddens me so much.

I often feel as if I am the only one left among the pod-people.

It may sound arrogant as if I think myself to be 'above the masses', but I can assure you that this is not the case.

I respect people and do not think highly of myself at all, it's just that I can find the Ruach anywhere in the hearts of the people I encounter.

And it is YHWH's Ruach I cherish and love so much, the only One Who gives me some light and consolation in this Darkness.

Evil is growing so rapidly and to such monstrous proportions that this trend cannot persist for very long without being forced to face the consequences.

It won't take another 50 years before the end comes, because all the elements which will facilitate the total control of Man in the beast system are in place.

It's just a matter of activating the elements, and suddenly people who thought themselves to be living in a free nation realize that they have been imprisoned.

All that is needed for the activation is the right circumstances in order to push the masses into conformity and persuade them to give in.

And as you all know, this push usually comes in the form of inventing an external threat which requires of the people to take 'precautionary' measures in order to protect themselves, and these measures usually imply sacrificing privacy and autonomy.

Or it comes in the form of holding up an appealing carrot which turns the people into slaves pulling the cart of the ones holding the steering wheel of the cart.

The beast system requires slaves, and to become slaves you have to relinquish your autonomy and your privacy.

In the Netherlands a class of people already is subjected to experiments designed to make people accustomed to the idea of relinquishing autonomy and independence, experiments carried out by certain local governments which turn people who need a welfare cheque into slaves.

They are forced to do whatever the governmental authorities tell them to, which includes the obligation to work without receiving proper wages.

The government provides them with social welfare, and if they want to continue to receive welfare so that they can feed themselves and their families they are forced to accept work for which they receive no payment, which often comes down to working below minimum wages.  

And as you can guess, the greater the economic depression, the more people are forced to into this straightjacket.

Slavery has returned in every aspect except for the name of the label.

I know some of you believe in a rapture, and how I wish it were true!

There's nothing I would want more than to go back home.

But, a rapture is not what I see happening in the near future.

And as the nations we are part of sink deeper into the deception, and the people compromise themselves by their conformity to Evil to an ever increasing degree, what are we to do?

I long for the day that the veil will be lifted from Israel and YHWH will restore the nation so that it becomes exactly that which YHWH created it to be: a chamber on the stage of Earth dedicated to YHWH's cause.

I would love to be part of building up a nation dedicated to YHWH, a nation where falsehood is abhorred and YHWH's Truth is upheld.

Unfortunately, today's Israel still is a far cry from what YHWH wants it to be, but I eagerly hope and pray for the restoration of YHWH's concept of Israel.

I cannot stress enough the importance to eradicate Sin from our lives.

Each time we sin we hand out authority to the Evil Mighty Ones to mess with our lives, and this can vary from manipulating your circumstances against you to very devastating consequences.

You MUST rule over Sin, or Sin will rule over you.

Any preacher who teaches you that belief in Yahshua gives you the grace card which allows you to indulge in Sin without suffering from the consequences is a deceived liar and a pawn in the hands of the Evil Ones to keep you locked into their power grid.

Sin strengthens memories of Sin together with the physical, emotional reality attached to these memories, and together they form the chains which keep you locked into Sin.

Each time elements of those memories are activated, they produce the emotional setting which led to you Sin, thus producing a strong compulsion (temptation) to indulge in the same Sin over and over again.

Do not believe liars who tell you that you can sin as much as you like because you are forgiven anyway.

You turn yourself into a slave through Sin, and you give authority to the Mighty Ones to mess with your Life as long as you keep indulging in patterns of Sin.

This can have devastating consequences.

If you indulge in Sin and you turn against the agenda of the Fallen Ones, you give them the authority to send a Shadow on your path with a loaded gun, and since you have given Darkness permission to mess with your Life you will be like a sitting duck when they point their gun at you.

So make sure you root out Sin in your Life so that you are fully protected by YHWH.

Trust in YHWH and give your heart over to Him, making sure you walk in intimacy with His Spirit, and no Darkness can have any authority over you whatsoever.

Do not let your hearts be envious when you see those who reject YHWH succeed where you fail, because what your eyes see is a false mirror held in place by the Evil One.

Those who conform to Evil have a false dream of comfort during their lives on Earth, yet when their lives come to an end, they wake up to theTruth of an everlasting nightmare.

Those who love YHWH may walk in a dream of adversity and suffering, yet when they wake up, they find themselves back in paradise, a reality of everlasting happiness and Goodness.

Not that those who conform to Evil receive good things on Earth ONLY, or that those who love YHWH receive only Evil on Earth.

But the rule of thumb is that if you promote the agenda of deception on Earth, the wind will be blowing in your back, and if you turn against the agenda of the Deceiver you will find the wind blowing in your face.

I think the ones who are to be pitied most are the ones who sold out to the Adversary and who are given to eat a diet of suffering and misfortune by their Evil Master, because they experience suffering both in this Life and the hereafter.

I know, this world seems more real than the world of the Spirit.

But it is only because we have been plastered in this clump of Flesh that the physical world seems more real than the spiritual world.

Once this trap of Flesh falls away, or when it is transformed, suddenly we will be able to see our place on Earth in the greater perspective of our place in Heaven, and then we will realize that our Life here was but a dream where we learned to walk though blinded by the Flesh, where we learned to listen though deafened by the Body.

Imagine this Life on Earth were the main course and the world of the Spirit but an insignificant desert, how cruel would our Creator be then.

Hardship, suffering, some being born blind, others being born mutilated, if that were the highlight of YHWH's creation who would want to be part of that?

However, Life here is but a cocoon, and the particular experiences we go through serve to bring out the beauty of our individual character.

It is a passing stage where nothing lasts, and this includes the suffering, the hardship, having to live in a defective Body.

I am not holding up a false, empty carrot of consolation to you, but I am urging you to look beyond your circumstances to the greater purpose of the Life you have.

Nothing in your Life is a coincidence, and everything you go through will serve to build you up and make you shine.

We may be blinded in the Spirit, but our Faith gives us eyes that see, just as the Fallen Ones can see in the Spirit, but their lack of Faith robs them of their sight of YHWH.

Hearing they fail to perceive YHWH's words, whereas we learn to perceive, even though we were born deaf in the Spirit by reason of merging with the fallen Flesh.

That is probably the greatest source of frustration to the Evil Ones, that the human Souls they sought to exploit surpass them and find freedom in their imprisoned state, and go where the Evil Ones will never be able to venture.

We learn to see and hear in our spiritual blindness and deafness, whereas they remain blind and dumb in their spiritual sight and hearing.

If they call Man stupid, then what are they when Man learns to see although he is blind, when Man learns to perceive although he is deaf, when Man finds freedom through redemption although he wears the shackles of damnation on his ankles?

Our spiritual blindness serves a very worthy purpose, which is to allow us grow into butterflies of Faith.

We have to learn to walk in Faith, Trust and Obedience, and believe me when I tell you that if you fully rely upon YHWH you will encounter miracles in your Life.

It is the spiritual blindness we are born into which serves the purpose of fostering the growth of Trust, Faith (Belief), Love, Endurance, Patience.

Here on Earth we learn to fight like Samurai warriors skilled in yielding the sword of Faith with far greater precision than ever before.

The Life we lead on Earth is but a passing dream.

Nothing here lasts, nothing can enter eternity.

Except for that which came from eternity into the dream, and which will return to eternity when the dream is over: our Soul and Spirit.

So if you suffer, and you see nothing but a trail of unfulfilled hope and shattered dreams, know then that every single event in your Life is part of a passing dream, and nothing which you might have hoped to accomplish on Earth could ever enter eternity.

The suffering will end, and the unfulfilled hope will be filled beyond your wildest expectations, and your shattered dreams will turn out to be a temporary folly as you move on to realize your greater dreams in the real life of the Spirit.

We are here to grow, and although we all abhor Evil in all its forms, it plays an important part in the growth process.

Though you may feel like giving up because the Adversary seems to have you in a deadlock and YHWH appears to be out of reach, keep moving and endure the best way you can, because YHWH is always there.

Trust and believe.
