The New Earth

From Here

Host: “The secret that some people aren’t starting to speak about yet is that The New Earth is already here. I think we just need to just sweep away the unnecessary parts so we can see it. So, last words Dr. Northrup. I’ll give the mic to you.”

Secret. The secret is, you don’t know what you’re talking about. There is no New Earth until after the pre-trib Rapture, and then 7 years with the anti-Christ in charge, handsomely for 3 1/2 years and then demonically for the next 3 1/2 years. Then we’ve got to do the Magog and Gog thingy (feel free to correct me anyone reading). I know there are variations on this theme within Christian sects. I’m riffing here. I shredded my whole Dispensation map ages ago. Armageddon. Christ’s return on a white horse slaughtering the unbelievers, blood flowing like a river. Then Satan in the tank for a 1000 years. Christ rules with His peeps. Then Satan gets out for good behaviour (sarcasm), things go to pot again . . . bye bye Satan and the like and then, well, the earth is consumed by fire and we get a New Earth. Got it? Oh I see. I’m from the false God, false idol crowd.

I don’t like how the Host put it. She thinks “we just need to just sweep away the unnecessary parts.” I feel very much like an “unnecessary part” at the moment. Is this one of those rivers of blood moments?

Northrup speaks: (1:27.18)

“I’m very optimistic about where we are going but I also know I don’t make any uh, claim to think that everyone is going with us.”

Nope. You’ve always alluded to some of us not going with you. There will be some “unnecessary parts” not make it. How very optimistic of you. (Sarcasm) In other videos I’ve listened to her hint about people not making it. Northrup believes in “soul contracts.” So does my mom. They believe in Reincarnation. Before you come, your soul gets to see/choose. It sees what they are coming for, then your soul agrees, then off you go, forgetting what you signed up for. It’s how so many of the conspiracy theorists come across as calculated, cold and lacking empathy. Hey, what can I do about it? You had a soul contract.

“We are at a great bifurcation, separating the wheat from the chaff.”

Northrup is a Christ consciousness believer. She mixes a whole lot of various beliefs into her cauldron of annihilating joy. Christ returns but not as say an evangelical Christian thinks/believes. For Northrup, we’re all Divine and if we lift our consciousness all together, then this is the goal. Those who are not able to raise their consciousness or lack Divinity, well, they are “the chaff.”

” I don’t pretend to know what someone else’s soul path is but I do know mine and I do know that of Larry and my colleagues ( she mentions something called 5-doc? and other names in her group) – lifting consciousness.”

So no pretending but she does know for sure who her “wheat” people are.

” The whole group that is rising like yeast all over the planet . . .”

Reminds me of my pew sitting days. All over the planet, born-again Christians are rising. God’s people will prevail.

“. . . and like you said, The New Earth is here already and those who have eyes let them see and those who have ears let them hear. Have compassion for the others but as Dr. Larry always says: “Do not chase them into burning buildings.” Those are my final words.”

This is the callous way of saying again, not everyone is going to make it. We’ve done everything we can to get them to see &/or hear. I’m not going to martyr myself any further for the chaff. Besides, remember, they have soul contracts. Look away and let them go.

In despair, many religious people pray to their God to save their loved ones. To convert them to the one true religion and the one true God. But in the end, if they don’t convert, or believe, you have to let them go. One day you’ll be in heaven, paradise, Nirvana or Neptune and all that was before will be no more. So you may be in anguish now but hold on. Soon there will be no more tears, no sorrow, no hunger, no sin. Just a whole lot of mansions on a hilltop.

And So We Wait

When I was younger and first learned through the Bible that Jesus was coming back I made a practice every night of praying that I’d be alive when Jesus returned.  I so wanted to be here on the earth to witness His arrival.  Come Lord Jesus, come.  I remember weeping as I prayed, picturing that glorious sight, Jesus arriving in the clouds, to Rapture unto Himself, those of us who were alive at the time.  All of us saved from the coming Tribulation.

The Baptist churches that I attended believed that Jesus was coming again.  Some of my very dear friends, many who are quite elderly now and others who are now dead,  just knew that the Lord would come in their lifetime.  I prayed earnestly that it would be the case.  I could think of nothing more exciting than to witness such an event and for that matter, get out of dodge before all hell broke loose.

I sometimes wonder what some of those nay-saying Christians think about my former prayer life and its authenticity.   Would they doubt it, or even mock it?  Meh, Bibles, prayer, study, research . . . so what?  If it was true, if you were really a Christian, you’d still be a Christian.  It’s impossible to try and help anyone understand.  I’d love to be understood but I know that there’s probably a better chance that Jesus will be back before I’d ever get that understanding.

Big Statement

We saw two of these on our way south on I-75.   I found myself wondering, how much money did it take to first build it and then erect it?  Then I got to thinking, probably some person who owns a steel business donated the steel.  Charitable donation?  Tax receipt?  I don’t know.  Then I imagined just how it was erected/installed and wondered if those workers donated their time.  Maybe that is how a church and its people can afford putting one of these signs alongside a major highway.

As you can see, the cross is no small item, towering over the tree tops.  You can’t miss it.  I thought about this and wondered just how many non-Christians come to the Christian God, as a result of this prominent symbol?  Then it occurred to me that maybe that cross is not there to evangelize the unsaved.  Maybe it’s there to comfort the believers.

Biker Dude and I see Christian symbolism everywhere here in Florida.   Today, in front of us, was a Florida car with a license plate cover that read:  Warning:  In event that the Rapture happens this car will vanish.

Cars will vanish too!?  I thought they’d be left behind.

Disaster Discussions

There was a time when as a fundamentalist, I believed that all the dead who had not at some point in their lifetime, cried out to God & believed in God’s Son Jesus Christ, before they died, went to hell. It was the destination for those who did not believe in the born-againism of the Christianity I was in.

It’s not easy to talk about now. It is not easy to admit. It is however, the truth of the Christianity I once believed in & practiced. The dead in this Tsunami, (if I believed as I once did), if not ‘born-again’ in Christ, could be in no other place then the hell I’d been taught about in the Bible. The Bible that I had read from cover to cover several times. The Bible I studied personally, memorizing large portions of it & the Bible I studied from in Bible college. The Bible I taught from & yes, even preached from, because no matter which way you looked at it, I was a preacher of the Word.

I have heard from some Christians that God has allowed/sent this Tsunami as a warning, a wake-up call. I hear & read apocalyptic terminology as people discuss the horror of what happened in Asia.

It has been reported that the earth has been knocked 2.5 cm. (= 1 inch) off it’s axis. That the quake sped up the earth’s rotation by one one millionth of a second.

During a personal discussion with hubby, I said quietly, “Wouldn’t it be interesting, if for example the earth does get totally knocked off it’s axis & hurdles into outer-space destroying all forms of life…if for maybe 10 or 30 seconds before people die, we could hear the thoughts of those who in shock & horror think to themselves …’Wait, what happened to the Rapture, the Tribulation, the one thousand year reign of Christ? What happened to my dispensational belief? This isn’t the way it’s suppose to hap…………………..'”

I have a friend who responds to disasters with comments like, “People need to turn to God & repent!” Or, “We need to get right with Jesus. God is judging the world for their unbelief.” And, “The Bible speaks of earthquakes, floods & famine. I believe it is the end-times & the Lord’s return is near.” When she speaks this way, I hear a coldness in her voice & she demonstrates a matter-of-fact attitude. If I asked her specific to this disaster, where the souls of these dear fellow human beings are, she would not hesitate to say, “If they did not know Christ, they are in hell.” Today, I can look back to a time when as uncomfortable as it once made me, I basically believed & spoke as she did. Really, there was no other choice. When one believes in Christian born-againism, there is no other way then being ‘born-again.’ To consider anything else as being the ‘truth’ shatters the whole theology of born-againism. It is & can only be a ‘black or white’ proposition. There are no grey areas.

I can’t sit here, in my comfort & blessing, believing for one minute that because I prayed a sinner’s prayer, accepted Christ as my Saviour & became born-again, that I would be or am any more a child of God, destined for heaven & not hell, then those who have died in so-called unbelief. Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, Christian, Atheist…all part of the human race…all related…all screaming, reaching for the hands of the one’s they loved & for some the hand of the One’s they believe in…quick, furious moments…alive…then dead.

And now…if they were so-called unbelieving souls, belonging not to the house of Christian born-againism…they reside for all eternity in hell?
