THE CREATION OF MAN IN THE FIRST CREATION.

Man created in the “Image of GOD”, (Gen. 1:27, KJV). In the same verse, Fenton more correctly states “man” as being created in the “Shadow of GOD”. That term might even appeal to Muslims given that “jihadists of the faith” are bent on obliterating anything that in their estimation approximates any “image of Allah”.

In that stupendous “First Creation of man”, it was therefore not earthman; for we were “formed” later, in the Second Creation -- from out of the dust of the ground. (Genesis 2:7, Fenton.)

Now, basically similar to the distillation process we examined earlier, the pressure of the Power of The Primordial Light drove the Creation-process to its completion. As each different species within Creation found its appropriate level of consciousness as determined by its weight and consistency – i.e., its own specific gravity so to speak – so, too, could the Planes for those inhabitants form around them in the cooling-off process.

This process was repeated all the way down to The Worlds of Matter. The governing factors which determined those levels of ‘forming’ were the same as in our oil-refinery example --- the lighter and finer in the Higher Spheres, and the correspondingly heavier and coarser toward the lower levels. Thus, each Realm formed itself at its appropriate place, corresponding to a level or Plane whereby the distance from the Creative-Light permitted a cooling off and a condensing and thus an eventual awakening to consciousness there of that Plane’s particular inhabitants.

Only in the separating out and cooling off stage, roughly similar to the earthly process of sedimentary deposition, could worlds and landscapes form in which all the inhabitants of Creation would be able to fulfil their purpose, exactly as we must do here. Reader: We should not suppose that only in the Material Spheres are there worlds of lands and rivers etc. Again, this difference is clearly alluded to in Genesis, Chapter 1, where worlds, animals and fishes were created, before the first Creation of male and female in the Image of God. That, reader, is the only correct Creation Process!

Chapter 2, however, describes a very different and vast time-frame; one that represents the aeons-long evolutionary process concerned with the physical world of Planet Earth. There we find animals, fishes and birds being “...formed from the dust of the ground”. Earth-man, “formed” the same way -- “from out of the dust of the ground” -- thus enters his new world. It is a world of incredible diversity and pristine beauty. That is the evolutionary “forming process”. Do we now understand this really quite simple and very logical demarcation? From Genesis 2:19, KJV. Italics mine.

The same Scripture in Fenton’s work states:

So, the major difference between the lower and coarser physical worlds and the infinitely Higher and lighter Spiritual Realms is the consistency of the substance of which the respective levels are composed. Thus, the First Creation is of Highest Spiritual substance whilst the second, out of the dust of the ground for the earth and physical universes, is obviously material.

The key point to reinforce and understand here once again is that each level represents a different consistency, lightest and finest in the Highest Spheres --- increasing incrementally in density with each subsequently forming level --- down to the heaviest and thus lowest precipitation --- the material world. Surely such a far-reaching concept should not be all that difficult to understand.

The statement of Jesus that: “My Kingdom is not of this world”; reveals the sure fact that His World (“I came from The Father and I return to The Father”) could not possibly be some kind of barren or filmy, amorphous expanse for He gives the strongest hint that His World is anchored in its infinitely more powerful and Eternal reality. Many of the great religions speak of an attainable paradise if one lives one’s life based on The Laws of God (but not, however, according to the rules of Churches and religions.) Every Realm above the material would naturally become progressively more paradisiacal.

Quite logically, therefore, the consistency and substance of the various Planes of Creation must necessarily be the same as that of their inhabitants. This implies that each Realm must also feel, and be, very firm and real for those who reside there; exactly as with humankind on earth. Any idea to the contrary is simply unrealistic, and quite silly. Nowhere in all the Spheres of Creation, therefore, do any of the inhabitants ‘hover’ aimlessly, as is sometimes depicted in religious interpretations or films. Every inhabitant and everything in the various Planes is thus anchored into the substance of its particular “Realm” through the consistency of the level concerned.

The Eternal Laws operate throughout all of Creation, and their effects, including the The Law of Spiritual Gravity in this case, are felt in every sphere also. The Law of Movement, too, implies activity – everywhere. Thus, we may note the perfect outworking of those Laws in the great Creative Process. Understandably, however, any sudden adjustment to this kind of conceptual perception may require a leap of quantum proportions. All we need do to achieve this, however, is to use the abilities of our inner spiritual core, the life-force within given to us precisely for this purpose; to understand our “Spiritual Origins” --- explained in this Discourse.

So, let’s now look at our actual Spiritual Origins, our higher Spiritual Home. Because we are clearly only “developed” or “formed” beings (i.e., from spiritual non-consciousness to personal self-consciousness and not actually Created Beings --- as with mankind of the “First Creation” (as Fenton reveals) --- we did not therefore possess the inherent strength to awaken to consciousness close to GOD. Our level of spiritual residence, therefore, had to be far lower --- in a kind of second-level Spiritual Realm. Yet even at that huge distance from The Creative-Light-Source, we still did not possess sufficient strength to take on form and thus become conscious of self there either.

That state of non-consciousness therefore meant that we would require a home of transition --- a material one --- in which to acquire self-consciousness. Quite logically, any kind of material home could only be below that of “The Spiritual Realm”. And only in that lower, material expanse would we be able to develop to personal self-consciousness. Thus, in our non-conscious state at the very lowest levels of The Spiritual Realm --- our true home --- we, the future spiritual human inhabitants of Planet Earth, awaited our time of incarnation in the Material World far below.

Simple, isn’t it? Therein lies part of the understanding of the Creation of man. And therein, also, part of the reconciliation of the Creation-versus-Evolution debate which is, in reality, a totally unnecessary argument, since there are no actual reasons for this division save that which the proponents of the two opposing views have “created” themselves. Despite very clear and logical clarification thus far, the complete process still requires further illumination.

So apart from the earth being the place of transition for our awakening to self-consciousness and eventual spiritual awareness, was there a greater purpose for being permitted the opportunity for self-conscious life? Unequivocally yes!

The material paradise of our earthly home was not only the place where we would develop to personal self-consciousness but, more importantly, where we were to learn the Truth of our origins. We were also tasked to protect and nurture the earth and its creatures given over to our stewardship as stated in Genesis and, having achieved spiritual purity through a voluntary adjustment to The Laws of Creation i.e., The Rules; we could then return, ascend, to our true home and origin –-- The Spiritual Realm.

That particular sphere is the promised Kingdom of GOD for human spirits. Thus, we are not even beings who stand close to The Creator, but just developed ones far from The Primordial Light. In reinforcement of this Truth once more, the relevant quote from John 1, Verse 18 of the King James Bible states:

“No man hath seen God at any time.”

Fenton writes: “No one has ever yet seen God”.

For the purposes of spiritual clarity, and a necessary “reality check” for the billions of followers of the “big three”, the understanding that the level of our origin lies far below that of The Divine, the “Abode of The Creator”, is imperative. This fact therefore forever precludes us from ever personally knowing the All-Powerful CREATOR we too loosely call GOD.

The Eternal Laws unequivocally impose the completely natural barrier that a creature can only possess “actual knowledge” as an “inherent part of itself”, up to its “source of origin”. It is clearly not possible for any creature to fully understand levels beyond, or higher than, its own beginnings.

A simple but pertinent illustration of that reality is the difference in the level of intelligence and “awareness” between animals and humans. How much greater must the difference naturally be between humans and He Who permitted us form and conscious life? To believe that we are at, or can attain to, the same degree of knowledge and power ----- as some scientists and some religious “scholars” occasionally imply --- is simply ludicrous, and foolishly arrogant. Just as ludicrous is the belief among some eastern religious groups that they will one day become “one with God”.

Whilst we cannot “consciously know” more than that which our level of origin would permit, we can, however, perceive that there will be more above such a level --- as in the case of the Jewish people’s intuitive recognition of the one invisible God when most of the rest of the world at the time were worshipping a variety of idols. We also possess the capacity to perhaps roughly visualise levels above our origins if we are given this information from One Whose Origin is from a higher level. The tidings and knowledge of the Higher Spheres given to us by Jesus is such an example. To believe, however, that we have, or can achieve, the ability to absolutely “know” in this way is incorrect. It is simply beyond the capabilities of even our spirit, whose actual home is from a far higher point in Creation than this lower-level material earth.

A “test” of this “truth” is to try to picture the concept of infinity, just as Sophie is attempting to do. To accept that there is a Creator logically means that there has never been a time when God did not exist. He has always existed. He will thus exist forever.

We, on the other hand, need beginnings and ends as frames of reference to help in the understanding of everything connected with our existence and with time, and thus cannot even begin to grasp such a concept. The mind rebels and almost shuts down against such an alien thought because it has no affinity with such a far-reaching “idea”. Only One who has no beginning and no end can logically “live” that kind of “infinite reality”. For us human beings with our very limited perceptive ability, it is simply an impossible thing to grasp. [This concept may sit uncomfortably with some, though might serve to inculcate a more realistic attitude in our self-perceived relationship to “The Creator of all the Worlds”.]

For the moment, however, the problem of needing to completely reconcile the ongoing argument between empirical earth-science and fundamentalist/orthodox religion as to the origin of man is not yet fully resolved. Some major points in previous Sections have offered many insights, but more explanations are needed As previously stated, the real tragedy here is that this great difference of opinion exists only in the minds of the proponents of the respective opposing views, for it cannot actually exist in reality.

In other words, the pointless arguments that have marred this path since the initial stirrings of scientific thought brought the first rumblings of disquiet into the previously sacrosanct Church view could not, quite obviously, have had any bearing whatsoever on the actual forming of the worlds in its stupendous scope and scale, however long ago it may have been. That reality will forever stand separate from all human opinion, as it obviously must.

To continue to rigidly and stubbornly hold to a personal or professional viewpoint at all costs, and sometimes even against the quiet warning of the inner intuitive voice, mirrors much of what is wrong with humankind. Yet for the sake of a clear, true picture of our Origins and for peace of mind, resolving this totally unnecessary debate is imperative. However, this can only be achieved with a completely open, fearless and enquiring mind and, most importantly, without preconceptions.

Now, Reader: That major Section will surely have helped you to a far deeper and more logical understanding of Creation and our human Genesis, and clarified much of the differences in the “big three’s” doctrines on Creation.

To that end and in terms of what we are directed to write; thus far we have said much about the “big three” of monotheism with regard to the subjects that should concern every human being on our planet. Of them all, and despite the fact that like Christian and Jewish “scholars” Islamic translators also have differing interpretations about certain aspects of the “face-book” of their religion, they nonetheless seem to be a little more unified around the overall message of their Koran than do “the followers of the other two” and their respective “books”.

In attempting to really get to grips with where “they” all stand on Creation and Evolution, we have simply given you the facts. The key “message” should therefore be unequivocally-clear. In now reaching the final stages of this particular essay where we detail the transition of the respective INNER ANIMATING LIFE FORCE of “formed man” of earth; --- from “animal-man” to “spiritual-man”, let’s let Islam and M.M. Ali have a say here before we tell you “exactly how it was”.

ISLAM, THE KORAN, AND EVOLUTION

That comprises M.M. Ali’s commentary on the three verses we are currently assessing. In terms of the above three verses, M.M. Ali’s commentary on them would seem to flesh out the Islamic concept of “evolution” to a point of it being the Muslim “doctrine” on the subject However, a few points in them do require our input.

(*) Firstly; we once again discover that, as it is with most opinions on “how it was” from religious “doctrinal scholars”, the real problem they all have “and voice”, is the “constant of uncertainty”; just guesswork and supposition. As we have hammered previously; were that not the case, they would all be in agreement --- as would science with them --- but they are not! Ali’s notation of “generally take them to refer...” is a perfect example, for it shows that he simply does not know, and has to refer to the opinions of “other commentators”.

(**) Here is revealed the “non-understanding” of what “creation” actually means. Vegetables growing from seed is NOT “Creation”. It is “reproduction”, a very different thing, indeed. Even the birth of new life is not “creation”. That, too, is “reproduction”. Do we think this is just “playing with words”? No: It is not, for the difference in concept and thus reality cannot easily be bridged by simple earthly terms, so represents a great “unbridgeable chasm” if not understood correctly. So, to truly understand who and what we are, our origins, and all else pertaining to the Great Creation in which we have both our physical and spiritual life and being, it is absolutely imperative that we can intelligently and logically differentiate between “creation” and “reproduction”. For then we know our relative place in the incomprehensible whole, and thus how we are to live on earth correctly according to precise Creation-Law, and thereby be able to at least begin our journey home to the Spiritual Realm.

(***) Ali’s notion that Resurrection means a “new bringing forth” into “the life Spiritual”, as distinct from the “life earthly”, makes sense “spiritually-symbolically”. That is akin to being “born again” in spirit in accordance with Jesus’s Teaching. In other words, it can be seen as a transformation, which can be referred to as a “resurrection”. However, the true meaning of “resurrection” according to Divine Law is not as M.M. Ali portrays it.

(Reader: that true meaning will be illuminated in the later Discourses on The First Death, and The Second Death. Yes! There are two, but they are very “different beasts”, indeed.)

EVOLUTION: FROM THE “SCIENCE” IN THE BIBLE

The Bible once more offers the final resolution to this apparent quandary. The question now is one of interpretation or, more precisely perhaps, incorrect interpretation. So: The standard view of fundamentalist Christianity is that the “7 days of Creation” scenario --- as applied to the complete Creation process including the emergence of man --- is non-negotiable, and probably because of the view that the Bible itself seemingly implies that it is so.

So strong has been this belief that it is now an entrenched and immovable cornerstone for many. However, rather than being recognised as correct “for all across the whole faith/belief spectrum”, and therefore a sacrosanct anchor-point for both the Church and society, it is one that clearly invites dissension thus resulting in much confusion.

Clarification of a previous key quote from Genesis should help to consign this division of opinion to its proper place in the sure relief of finally knowing the answer, thereby allowing the differences to be completely expunged. Hence, in the last phases of the Great Creation, our world of the lower, material sphere could take on form too. As the last and thus lowest level of precipitation that resulted from the Creative-process, this vast World of Matter took billions of years to coalesce into roughly the form we know today.

That long, slow, evolutionary progression which subsequently emerged from the initial Creative-process eventually allowed for all material life forms to emerge, including “...the formation of man from out of the dust of the ground” and the breathing into his nostrils “the life of animals”. This is precisely what science has discovered. It was exactly that incredibly long evolutionary process which saw the emergence and preparation of the physical vessel --- the development of the primate --– the vessel which would ultimately house spiritual man.

The preparation of the “physical vessel for man” is clearly revealed in Fenton’s work where that particular happening is separated from the formative process by its denotation in his key capitalised phrase. The two primary events are revealed in the following key Scripture from Genesis 2:7.

Now, from the King James Version: If this “sacred Scripture” is separated into two parts and simple logic applied to both, we discover a crucial point, the first part reads:

To reinforce the key point once more; that small, seemingly innocuous, part-sentence actually holds one of the key components to resolving the Creation versus Evolution debate between Christian fundamentalism and perhaps monotheism overall, and science. In it is revealed the “Science of Creation” that quite clearly equates to that aspect of the overall Creation-process denoting the long evolutionary development of the physical vessel – the primate – formed from the dust of the ground to one day house “spiritual man”.

Now the second part states: “...and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul”. Equally clearly, the “breath of life breathed into the nostrils” is the animating aspect for that physical vessel. It is so beautifully simple yet so profound in concept but, however, so stupendous in scope and scale.

Perhaps many a reader may now recognise the correct picture with this explanation. For in stating once more in reinforcement, the “... forming of man from the dust of the ground...” was simply the evolutionary journey by which all creatures developed after the formation and cooling of the material Earth. From the first minute microscopic life-forms out of the primordial soup, to the fishes, insects, plants, birds and great lizards, and thence from mammals to the first primates. Thus did our physical-form ancestors slowly develop to their particular zenith --- the refinement of form ordained for Spiritual man. A marvellous and completely logical happening quite naturally divorced from any fundamentalist connotations when viewed correctly.

The associated aspect of the time-frame needed for evolutionary development, and how that could possibly be reconciled with a complete Creation time of just 7 days as depicted in the Bible requires clarification too. The 7 days account, though accepted by well-meaning Christians world-wide --- but also apparently by many followers of the other two religions of the “big three” --- is essentially rejected by the scientific community?

Even the more recent “new and supposedly definitive translations” such as The Jerusalem Bible --- compiled by committees of “learned” theologians --- still persist with a literal 7-day Creation-time. The scriptural quote: “... and a thousand years are as one day...” (2 Peter 3:8) scarcely suffices to place even the smallest dent in the time period required for evolutionary development, given that the dinosaurs alone reigned for some 180 million years.

Why, then, do such a large slice of ‘Christian’ humanity still persist with the absurd belief that just 7 earth-days --- which equates to 7 earth-days of 24hr time as we experience it here on earth --- accounted for every single facet of the whole Creation-process?

Do we really believe that just a few thousand years ago, dinosaurs marched into the Ark two by two, as some Creationists are desperately striving to promote? We certainly do not subscribe to such an “impossible impossibility”.

The true answer in this case is one of incorrect interpretation and non-understanding, perhaps resulting from an incorrect translation of the original writings, or perhaps from simply accepting a symbolic “spiritual” term that was never meant to be so read, and applying to it a literal, earthly point of view. It is, in effect then, an incorrect “Spiritual interpretation”.

WHAT, THEN, IS THE CORRECT INTERPRETATION?

The correct interpretation lies in recognising the fundamental differences between Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 of The Book of Genesis! The misinterpretation from Christian orthodoxy lies in attempting to ascribe two very different processes --- one, Creation, the other, primarily Evolution --- to a singular 7 earth-day Creation time-frame in Chapter 1, and attempting to also include in that time-frame the completely separate processes that Chapter 2 explains.

The scientific misinterpretation on the other hand lies in either completely disregarding the Creation aspect as correctly outlined in the Bible, and/or viewing Creation as a singular, material cosmological process out of which sprang the evolutionary developmental phase of the various Earth creatures --- including man --- through physical/genetic processes solely.

Fenton’s Bible delineates yet harmonises both the earth-science and Christian fundamentalism points of view so completely that both are effectively neutralised in their individual positions yet conjoined perfectly when brought together.

A small digression to make a very salient point! Do you know, Reader: The inexcusable errors about Creation and the Truth of our Origins are actually perpetuated by the very people who should have long since recognised the logical reality of it all. The Christian Church, earthly science and committees of Ph.D. and degree-toting Bible “scholars” are the “triune” of earthly power and defective education which persistently clings to, and continues to intellectually debate, this foolish divide.

Backing the so-called “expert” translations and opinions, the main Bible Publishers continue to reproduce the same appalling error by not understanding the fundamental differences between Chapter 1, and Chapter 2, in The Book of Genesis. You can check this out for yourself by examining most of the mainstream Bibles and comparing their translations to what we have gifted to you from Fenton. Try it!

Despite this dreadful non-understanding/suppression of The Truth about Creation by the “educational elite” of global Christendom --- and global Islam and the “religious singularity” of Judaism as well --- this Work, guided in the same way that Fenton surely was; with his essential contribution and that of the wondrous All-Truth now available to all on earth, together, reveals The Truth of it all.

Right: The “7 days of Creation” -- The First Creation --- described in Fenton’s Chapter 1 was therefore not immediately the Paradise of the human spirits, and had nothing to do with the earth. It describes actual spiritual happenings at heights and distances immeasurable and thus inconceivable to earthly humanity. We should therefore not become confused with the term, earth, used in the account of Creation in Chapter 1. That word does not refer to any kind of “local” association with our planet. It must be understood as a “concept of Creation” which applies to “dry land”.

In “The First Creation”, therefore, there are also mountains, forests, meadows, seas animals and men --- as it must logically be so --- but of inconceivable beauty and perfection as prototypes for all subsequent Spiritual Creations, all of which could only come into being after that First Creation! Thus it is stated:

“Let the Earth (the dry land) produce seed-bearing vegetation, as well as fruit trees according to their several species, capable of reproduction upon the Earth;” and that was done. The Earth (the dry land) produced the seed-bearing herbage according to every species, as well as the different species of reproductive fruit trees; and GOD saw that they were good. This was the close and dawn of the third age.
(Respectively: Genesis 1:10 and 1:11-13, Fenton.)

Now, what is this new and very different word --- age --- describing the Creation-process? A quick comparison of our two main reference Bibles reveals a vastly different contrasting picture with exactly that one small word making all the difference. The King James Version of Genesis 1 reads:

This Bible, as with most others, goes on to state in Chapter 1 Verse 5:

And so on to Verse 31: “And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and morning were the sixth day.” And thus to Chapter 2, Verses 1 and 2, which state:

Surely we are able to acknowledge that this word day as used here is nothing more than a symbolic term for a particular “time-period”, and was never ever intended to be taken literally. The example from Verse 4 of the same book quantifies this premise because it states:

As previously stated, the literal acceptance of the word day in the singular here for the complete Creation of both the heavens and the Earth, and the unequivocal and clear reference to the word generations in the same Creative phase, surely calls into question any such belief involving just 7 earthly days for the whole and complete Creative-process, for there is an immediate and obvious contradiction. In stark contrast, Genesis 1:1 in Ferrar Fenton’s re-translated Bible reads very differently. Reader; “absorb” the next explanations assiduously.

It is crucial to understand here that a vastly different conception of time must inherently exist in spheres that are obviously non-material. The diurnal rhythm we experience on earth simply cannot apply to such Realms, for the passing of time can only be experienced in Material Worlds. In our Text about Stephen Hawking at the start, we learned from The Grail Message of Imanuel that in Realms that are Eternal, time as we believe we know it simply doesn’t exist. Time, therefore, does not pass there. We on material and finite earth, however, experience its passing every second of our earthly existence.

And so on to verse 31: “And God gazed upon all that He had made, and it was very beautiful. Thus the close came, and the dawn came of the sixth AGE.” And Chapter 2, Verses 1 and 2, comparatively state:

That sequence of events notating the Creation-Process has wrought the problem of non-understanding in both religion and science because it is seen as a “one-off totality”; nothing before that, and no further sequencing of a “secondary creation-phase” afterwards. But that is exactly the reality. For what do we read post “First Creation”? Once more: This is what we discover! Reader: The key word and mind-blowing concept inherent in the following Scripture lies in one word --- afterwards! After what? Surely that is eminently clear. It does not mean before or during. No! It means “afterwards”; secondary to the “first” thing. Fenton, in Genesis 2:7, states it correctly! (Emphases mine.)

The Formation of Man from the Dust of the Ground by
the
Ever-Living God

So only after that direct First Creation Event, --- and via an aeons-long evolutionary process --- was earth man then “subsequently formed“, as were the animals and birds etc. This scenario fits perfectly with the scientific view of a very long developmental phase for the earth after its birth before even the ancestors of the very earliest primates could emerge, as Fenton’s Bible correctly identifies!

It is patently clear, therefore, that the difference between an “earth-day” and an “age” is immense indeed. Simple logic should suggest that the designation of an “age” to denote a phase of Creation utterly stupendous and incomprehensible to human thinking in its scope and scale makes eminently more sense than the literal acceptance of an earthly 24-hour time-period that Christian fundamentalism has perhaps interpreted as meaning a Genesis “Creation-day”.

And neither should the true and correct view clash with any religious interpretation regarding the awesome greatness of the Creation-process at the Command of The Creator Himself. Religious fear and blind faith do not supply answers. They only serve to perpetuate spiritually-wrong concepts with the resultant effect of producing adherents afraid to think for themselves. Perhaps the explanations outlined here may induce the tentative religious reader to become less afraid to question worrying uncertainties.

After all, how often do we hear the common phrase or variations of: “It wasn’t like that in my day!” Generally used to compare an earlier time-period in a particular life to that of the present, the connotations are obvious to all. Such references do not refer to a single day.

The ‘Real’ Human/Chimp Split: The ‘How’ and The ‘Why’

Even though the previous explanations offer solutions to some contentious questions, there is still the need to provide further clarification to particular points for our complete understanding. In one area at least, however, our discussions thus far should offer the clear recognition that we, in the form of the complete entity --- man --- are not descended from the primates. The physical body which we inhabit today is a refinement of form that developed from the very first primates during the long and natural evolutionary process that eventually led to upright man.

In that complete, dynamic and ongoing evolutionary process, there is the spiritual/scientific reality to consider the word, “mutation”. Definition of “mutation”: a significant and basic alteration: CHANGE. (Miriam–Webster dictionary.)

What does the long history of the earth and its creatures tell us? It tells us that “change” is the evolutionary norm! We could say, therefore, that “mutation” (change) drives evolution; and/or evolution drives “mutation” (change)! All, however, under the aegis of The Divine Laws of Creation!

So, what is so hard to understand here? They are “two sides of the same coin”, for one cannot be without the other. There never were any so-called single-pattern creatures from their very inception to the present. Some have come close, but the key reality is – and always has been --- CHANGE! And it’s ongoing in the present. Creation does not accept “stagnation”, for It drives “development”. And reader; creationists can do with that hard fact whatever they might wish to, but they cannot change it!

Therefore, let us re-state once more that our human “body-form” is nothing more than a physical vessel only. It is, however, one we absolutely need in order to live in the material environment of the Earth. It is the animating power within, our actual life-force --- that some in the scientific community refer to as “the ghost in the machine” --- which separates itself out from the physical shell at earthly death.

That is our individual spiritual core whose home and origin is not of the earth. The previous explanations may also answer the question as to what happened to the many varied species of primates that disappeared virtually overnight, and why the search for a so-called missing link is a difficult one. For with the entry of the human-spiritual aspect into the most advanced species of primate, all others striving to develop to that same point --- but which could not provide the necessary strength of attraction for the spiritual part of man then reaching the Earth Plane --- simply died out. As a natural consequence of insufficient development and the inability to compete with this newly arrived “spiritual force” in the shape of early man, all other primate groups that could have developed to become ‘that particular vessel’ were rendered redundant.

Now, whilst we have a resolution to both parts of this religious/scientific debate, further clarification of how the human-spiritual aspect could enter the appropriately developed primate species or group, and thence populate the Earth and develop into the world’s peoples, is still needed.

We have established the premise that the human being is both spiritual and physical and possesses the attribute of free will. It is also clear that without the spirit as the animating force within the human body, the physical vessel has no life of its own i.e., it is naturally and necessarily dead. In this particular state, it follows the decree of The Laws of Nature and decomposes. It can thus be deduced that all other mobile life-forms of the Earth, such as birds, insects and fishes etc., must similarly have an inner animating core in order to have life. Their inner core is, however, not spirit, but soul, from which is derived the discernment of instinct.

As with man on Earth animals, too, have an original home above the material world from where they draw their life-force. However, because they do not possess the attribute of free will --- which is synonymous with personal spiritual responsibility --- their place of origin is below that of the human spirit. That plane of origin is designated as the Animistic, or Elemental Realm, which is that of the Nature Beings and the Elemental Forces of Nature. (More on that subject in a later Discourse.)

Now whilst the other mobile creatures of the earth do not possess free will, they do have the driving power of the instinct. This inherent attribute allows all such creatures to fully develop to their ordained place and purpose too.

It is crucially important to therefore recognise that up to the incarnation or arrival of spiritual-man, animal-man (earthly primate) possessed soul as his life-force, and quietly developed the perfection of form that was ordained to provide the physical vessel through which and in which the entry of the human-spiritual onto the ‘Earth Plane’ would be effected.

To that end, over the many millions of years of evolutionary development of the earth’s creatures to the perfecting of the form of animal man, the human spirits (we, us), existing in a state of non-consciousness in the lower levels of the Spiritual Realm, obeyed an unconscious inherent urge to develop to personal self-consciousness. Since this could not take place there, and as a result of that “inner petition”, the non-conscious spirit-seed --- in terms of its individual journey --- was driven or expelled from out of The Spiritual Realm --- our actual home (the true Garden of Eden) downward towards The World of Matter.

Now, as it traverses the intermediate levels below the Spiritual Realm all the way down to the Material Plane, the human “spirit-seed” -- (Note the Parable: “A sower went forth to sow.”) --- is compelled to accept a covering or cloak of the same consistency as that of the level through which it is journeying. In the great immensity of what we refer to or understand as being “the beyond”, there are “many mansions” too. Those “mansions” are the Realms or levels we must traverse to get “all the way down here to earth”.

Thus, the closer the now-stirring spirit-seed gets to earth, the heavier its outer coverings become. We may refer to them as the bodies or coverings that pertain to, and are of, the particular consistency of the different Realms traversed. Through this process, we become more than just an entity comprising a spiritual core (the real us) and a physical body.

We thus possess a number of “cloaks” or coverings, each telescoped into the other, so to speak, with each having a different consistency exactly commensurate, however, with the Sphere or Plane from which it is derived. (Refer back to the analogy of the “distillation column” as a guide.)

This collective covering is the soul-body, distinct from the inner spiritual core. The final cloak, of course, is that of the physical body, taken on when the spirit, with its enveloping “soul-coverings”, enters, incarnates, into the growing foetus of a pregnant woman under the perfect outworking of The Law of Spiritual Attraction of Similar Species. This outer physical body becomes the earthly vessel for that “complete soul body” and its inner “enveloped spirit”. Now: Do we get that?

The processes that determine whether a male or female is born in this first incarnation will have been decided by the journeying spirit’s intuitive inclination as it travels downwards toward The World of Matter and the earth. From an initial non-conscious state, it gradually begins to slowly awaken the closer it gets to the world of the physical. During its transition downwards, it begins to sense the life-stream currents of the various levels through which it passes.

As it descends further, it becomes more and more firm in its inclination towards the experiences it wishes to make its own. With this increasing certainty comes the firm decision to choose either an active and, therefore, male incarnation; or a passive and, therefore, female one. (Passive in this context does not mean weakly submissive.) Thus, the nature of the activity the entity chooses therewith determines its body form.

This explains the mechanism of personal choice that determines whether the entity’s final form will be male or female. From that point onwards, in its successive incarnations, it can change its outer form depending on whether it changes its activity. Thus, it is possible for a human spirit to incarnate in alternate male and female bodies. However, it can also happen that such a situation generates, for that individual, spiritual, psychological, and emotional uncertainty as to its true ordained place.

Now the stage is almost set for the entry of the human-spiritual into The World of Matter, therein to determine his future spiritual and material outcome. The earth, up to this point inhabited by prolific numbers of varied creatures, did not yet know spiritual man, or the effect that this particular creature would exert on their natural, pristine world. Unknowingly awaiting the advent of this new stranger were the most highly developed species of primate quietly furthering their role as the chosen vessels through which this event would be fulfilled.

With the unnecessary quarrel between science and religion in one aspect of the “Creation versus Evolution” debate incontrovertibly resolved, let us complete the process by examining the second part of our wondrous yet contentious Genesis Verse to determine the final happening.

This is tightly bound to our key Verse 7, Chapter 2 in Genesis of the King James Version of the Bible. As previously stated, two distinctly separate parts to this Verse can be readily identified. Quoted in full once more, it reads:

As previously refuted, this surely cannot be taken to mean that God Himself somehow descended to earth to literally blow His breath into a model of a mud-man. Though brief and simple, this part of the Scripture clearly depicts something else.

That occurred quite naturally and logically during the aeons-long evolutionary process. Through those vessels --- the especially prepared species of primate --- man would eventually exert his new and far-reaching spiritual authority in The World of Matter at the ordained time for this to occur.

Now, in order to answer --- from the Bible --- the question of how the entry of the human/spiritual aspect into that species of highly developed primates prepared for its reception was effected; i.e., those possessing a soul as their animating life-force --- animal man -- we need only re-visit Verse 7, Chapter 2.

This time, however, using Ferrar Fenton’s translation of Genesis to find the true connection. Fenton offers that actual revelation. It is one, moreover, which gives a far clearer understanding than we have thus far found in any other “scriptural writings”. So, once again we read:

The difference in wording here from commonly accepted Scripture represents a huge leap forward in our knowledge of the understanding of Creation and may well mirror Ferrar Fenton’s intuitive grasp of the true happening to enable him to detail it more precisely, but without actual confirmed knowledge.

The fact that the evolutionary development of the primates necessarily required the symbolic “...breathing into the nostrils the life of animals ...”, simply denotes the creative and actual necessity for all mobile creatures of the earth to have an inner animating core, their actual life-force. Thus, that which is referred to here as “...the life of animals...” is ‘their’ inner life-aspect, which all animals must possess in order to live.

It is that of soul.

As we have learned, man also possesses a soul --- but not as his innermost ‘animating component’. The primary life force of man --- the actual person --- is spirit. His spirit --- he --- is enveloped by his soul, the multi-layered outer cloak or covering.

Spirit is who and what man is --- what we all truly are --- when all else is stripped away.

So, the reference to the word “soul” pertaining to man in this particular and correct translation of the Biblical account must be understood in its true meaning, since there is clearly a fundamental difference between the life-force inherent “...in the man breathed into...” and what he then became as a result of this breathed-into process. Moreover, there is a stated delineation with the use of the conjunction --- BUT!

This can be further extended to logically mean “...but nevertheless became...” Fenton must have understood the crucial difference here because this key phrase is Capitalised in his Bible vis-à-vis:

“BUT MAN BECAME A LIFE-CONTAINING SOUL.”

We may perhaps better understand this most crucial difference which separates man from animal by examining Fenton’s footnoted reference (1) immediately after the word, ‘animals’, in the Scripture: i.e., “...and breathed into his nostrils the life of animals 1.” Fenton’s footnote states:
   “1 Or reflective or intellectual life. See Cor. Ch ii.12. Ch iii.3.”

We know, of course, that animals are not reflective or intellectual in the human sense, but that is not what is meant here. To that end, if we now look at Corinthians 2:12, we really do begin to understand what Fenton must surely have intuitively understood:

Note:
   If there is still uncertainty regarding these explanations in the mind of you, reader; here, now, is the final note on this most crucial and necessary of revelations for all of earthly humanity!

In reinforcement once more: We now know that the breathing “...into his nostrils the life of animals...” represented the entry — at the very beginning — of the inner, animating life-force into the very earliest physical-form ancestors of primates at their forming from ‘out of the dust of the ground’, from which would eventually develop the most highly evolved species to exist on earth And from that ‘broad evolutionary spread’, the further development of the single primate branch which would subsequently produce the “physical-form vessels” human beings would require for life on Earth

So, the great and fundamental unbridgeable difference between primates and humans is actually represented --- paradoxically for human science --- by the-less-than two per cent of DNA not shared with chimpanzees. For that vast and unbridgeable primary difference inherent in human beings centres on the fact that even though we also needed to use the basic physical form of the most highly evolved of the primate species for our human earth-life activity too, we could not do so with just the ‘inner, animating life-force’ of the primate.

Thus, the absolute necessity for an actual human/chimp split! For we are not animals, we are human. We therefore could not simply evolve into humans from the animal primate.

Why not? Because, once again; that which gives human beings life is not the same inner life-force as that which the lower-level animal primates possess as their life-power. Thus, the capitalised reference to “LIFE-CONTAINING SOUL” reveals exactly that fact.

That which is contained in, and enveloped by, the ‘soul’ in this crucial revelation, is The Spirit – THE LIFE – the innermost animating core of the ‘human being’.

The key phrase: “BUT MAN BECAME A LIFE-CONTAINING SOUL.”, therefore reveals that the quantum leap from primate to human was not one given life by human genetics through simple ‘brain development’ by normal but slow ‘evolutionary processes’. It was a quantum leap precisely because a new force and power was required for humans to be humans, completely distinct and very far removed from the animal primate. That is why the 98.4 per cent of similar DNA in both monkey and man concerns the respective physical bodies only, and thus why they both rot away at death.

We are not our physical body!

That is precisely “how it is! We can conclude, therefore, that this inherently logical process that Ferrar Fenton reveals is exactly that which actually facilitated the entry of Spiritual man onto the Earth.

It thus depicts the amazing event of the incarnation, the entry, of the human/spiritual from out of his former non-conscious state in the non-material Spiritual Realm, into the most highly developed species of primate then existing on earth. Only thereby, could man further evolve to become fully conscious of self.

‘Spiritual’ man --- ‘human’ --- now stands on Earth!

The reader who supports Bible Scripture literally and solely may now begin to see that there is no clash after all between the Creation account and Evolutionary development since both, in their co-joined natural perfection, could only have issued from Perfect Laws of Creation. Employing Hegel’s ‘dialectic process’ and Fenton’s correct Bible translation, we have brought together the appropriate connecting threads from both the scientific and religious disciplines to offer you definitive clarification of the Creation-process. The Spirit of Truth, Imanuel, states this finality!

So: There stands our ‘Spiritual Origin’; that of all humankind, including all ‘believers” of the “big three” of monotheism --- Islam, Christianity and Judaism. Yes: All of you! Your very uncertain “purely-religious” notions of “how we got here” are exactly that; uncertain, unsure, thus untruth!

From that stupendous happening, spiritual man, in his material home prepared over millions of years, began his new journey of development towards personal self-consciousness and knowledge. This journey, however, would span a certain, precisely ordained period of allotted time requiring accountability at the end of it. For with his request for conscious life came the responsibility of correct stewardship of his material home; the earth and all its creatures, as was once commanded! (But not to control nature as the Koran and Islam contend.)

The division and separating out into the races, peoples and languages of the earth still lay before him. History records that stewardship as one of mostly degradation, destruction, religious intolerance, blood and war, with few intervals of true peace, grace and nobleness. Now, however, the time of accountability has arrived.

We stand in the midst of the reciprocal effect of our bad stewardship as The Divine Laws of Creation in The Judgement now underway, set about the grim task of “balancing the books”. That necessary “auditing process”, which we now begin to observe with some considerable degree of alarm, is effected primarily through the increasing outworking and activity of the unassailable power of the Elemental Forces of Nature!

For one: An ongoing and seemingly unstoppable and mutating Pestilence!

At the same time, however, the unrelenting pressure of those Divine Laws is also acting on the “religions of man”. In real time, the insanity of inter-religious conflict and increasing bloodshed absolutely testifies to the glaring fact of how wrong those teachings truly are --- so far removed from Divine Truth!

So: Reader: As we track inexorably towards our self-wrought annihilation --- much of it at the hands of totally aspiritual human religions --- in that vein, let’s hear the warning about them from The Hand of The Spirit of Truth once more.

Taking that as a beacon of hope, along with the clarification herein of humankind’s origin and entry into the material world of the earth as home; both should provide complementary meaning, spiritual insight and at least some peace of mind for many readers as we wend our precarious way to a decidedly-dangerous future. With clarification should also come quiet confidence and peace of mind as to who and what one really is.

Here, we outlined and explained the basic happening of the coming-into-being of Creation, and of man. We accompanied him on his journey downwards, from a non-conscious spirit seed in The Spiritual Realm to incarnation and conscious personal responsibility on the earth, and thence to the employment of his free will to determine his spiritual future under the outworking of The Eternal Laws.

Naturally, it could be expected that there is a lawful process by which he leaves this earth too. Whilst considerable detail is given to this process in later Discourses, it is appropriate to conclude here with a short paragraph to outline the reverse process of his return journey in a very brief sketching overview, thus completing our cycle of spiritual life in this segment. (Reader; note very carefully, however, that this particular outline only explains the return ascent if The Laws of Creation have been heeded. The process for a human spirit who chooses a path opposed to those Laws is, unfortunately for that human spirit, a very different one.]

Thus: Upon earthly death and release from the physical shell , and providing he has earned the right to do so, he begins his return journey upwards to his spiritual home. As he passes into each correspondingly lighter sphere --- the same that he traversed on his journey downwards --- the heavier covering of the previous lower one is automatically discarded in accordance with its corresponding weight and that particular level’s corresponding density. In this manner his ascent continues until, finally, he stands at the threshold of The Spiritual Realm from whence he came.

This time, however; not as a non-conscious, unknowing spirit-seed, but as a fully conscious, purified, spiritual being --- Spiritual Man. Here, he sheds the last cloak and is drawn across that boundary into his Eternal home, radiant in his spiritual purity having earned “the crown of Eternal life”. Thus, in John 14:2 is fulfilled the invitation of Jesus who stated:

In order to earn this right, however, the next Scriptural quote [Matthew 5:26] should also be accepted:
“I tell you indeed, that you will not depart until you have repaid the very last farthing.”

Therefore, to this end, in Matthew 5:48 we read:
“You, however, should be perfect, as your Father in heaven is perfect.” (Fenton all.)

Because the subject matter of this Discourse is crucial to understanding our “reason for being”, it necessarily required that particular aspects of it be repeated, reinforced, hammered home! Yes, reader; it is lengthy but, in my estimation, it had to be so!

In conclusion, and given the possibly contentious yet potentially mind-extending implications of this Discourse, detailing the main points of the Biblical sequence of Creation here may provide simplified clarification via a greatly condensed overview.

Reader; you surely well-know by now that my task is to extend Truth-knowledge to a point where the so-called ‘leaders of religion’; they who either inadvertently or deliberately distort Divine Truth --- it matters not which --- will be forced to face their “inexcusable deeds”.

To that end: We leave you with an “encapsulation” that, for your enduring “spiritual illumination”, you should perhaps “print off” and hang “somewhere” in your dwelling!

CHRONOLOGY OF THE CREATION PROCESS

“BIG THREE” OF ISLAM, CHRISTIANITY AND JUDAISM --- TAKE NOTE ---- AND LEARN!

THE KEY POINTS:

The Utterance of the stupendous Creation-Words --- “LET THERE BE LIGHT!” --- thus resulting in: The First Creation --- (The Spiritual Realms.)

Now, whether this sequence is viewed absolutely literally, whether it is viewed symbolically, pseudo-scientifically or any other way; there are clear pointers illustrating a number of very different and very distinct happenings that occurred. This is clearly contrary to the one single sequence that the main Christian Churches generally believe and teach as having ostensibly created man/earth-man; and, moreover, him only. Fenton unequivocally delineates these separate, stupendous events in clear sub-titles.

Therefore, if we take careful note of points 3, 4, 9, 11 and 13, and similarly note the above sub-titles 1, 2 and 3 from Fenton’s translation, a vastly different and more stupendous picture arises than the present, general belief of an aspiritual humanity somehow being in close proximity to a Power that we cannot even begin to comprehend. Points 3 and 4 on their own here strongly indicate two different places very far apart: one above the Heavens and one below the Heavens. The Creator of All the Worlds is clearly far further from us than we might want to believe. (In any case recognition of that fact arrives to all not too long after earthly death.)

The sequence we have outlined here (from the Bible only) concurs with many of the scientific findings of anthropology and astronomy. Taken in concert, both views actually trace a path of evolutionary development that is consistent with rational logic and, moreover, encompasses and co-joins both the religious and scientific points of view. More importantly, however, this more logical sequence places man (us) in his correct place very far from a Creative Force that inherently possesses the Power to Create all that we know -- and all that we do not --- simply by an Act of Divine Will. In short, by the Power of Creative thought. That is Power utterly incomprehensible to us. Such stupendous Power, moreover, will forever be beyond our extremely limited, just earthly, comprehension.

However, instead of that particular recognition being somehow problematical for us, we should be grateful for the fact that the incomprehensible immensity of the Creations graciously provides all that we will ever need for life here --- and life Eternal. Such a marvellous and stupendous expansion for mind and spirit should thus actually offer the largest possible measure of inner peace and spiritual security possible. That is provided, of course, that we voluntarily choose to obey: The Divine Laws of Creation!

Therewith are the long-contested arguments of Creation versus Evolution --- Christian, Islamic and Jewish religious fundamentalism versus “spiritually-clarified science”:

--- perfectly reconciled and harmonised.
