Middle East: Difference between revisions

Much of the turbulence in the Middle East today exists between the descendants of the two sons of [[Abraham]]. Ishmael, the son of Hagar, is the forefather of the Arabs. Isaac, the son of Sarah, is the forefather of the Jews. Their descendants have fought many times in the past and they are still fighting today.<ref>Elizabeth Clare Prophet, Ascension Service, November 15, 1968.</ref>

Although religion is used as a justification for the bloodshed,<ref>Helios, July 4, 1984, {{POWref|27|48B}}</ref> the origin of this warfare goes beyond even the time of Abraham. The Arabs and Jews are pitted against one another in an age-old strife that began long ago, beyond this planetary body, in the time when they used nuclear weapons and the highest technology to destroy their own planet, [[Maldek]]. The asteroid belt between [[Mars]] and [[Jupiter]] is all that is left of that planet.<ref>Elizabeth Clare Prophet, Ascension Service, June 23, 1995.</ref>

One third of the evolutions of Maldek were given further opportunity, through the mercy of the Great Law. These evolutions, known as the [[laggard]]s, were allowed to embody upon earth to work out their karma and hopefully once more to walk in the ways of righteousness and truth. Unfortunately, instead of being brought into the light through the influence of the evolutions of earth, they held onto the momentums of negativity that had destroyed their home planet.<ref>{{CHM}}, pp. 78–79.</ref> These warring factions are still embodying on earth and they have come together once again to fight unto the death. This hatred is an ancient hatred and it manifests today through some of the individuals who are embodied among the Arabs and the Jews.

== There are souls of light on all sides ==

On April 8, 1982, [[Archangel Uriel]] explained that the Middle East is where “the laggard generations have gathered for their final war of Gog and Magog.” He said:  

The [[Archangel Gabriel]] raises his hand and their hatred is upon them, and the reason that it is done in this manner is that it is obvious to the L<small>ORD</small> God Almighty that these peoples would conquer the whole world if they were allowed to do so. And therefore, turning their hatred unto themselves spares the planetary body of that hatred.<ref>Elizabeth Clare Prophet, lecture on Lebanon and Israel, July 18, 1982.</ref>

== Spiritual solutions are needed ==

Pray for the legions of light to bind the forces of darkness at work in the Middle East by calling daily for the judgment of these forces.<ref>Mother Mary, April 20, 1997, {{POWref|44|12}}</ref> Give your [[hourly call to Sanat Kumara]] to bring God-resolution. Ask the angels who are the reapers to bind the tares among the wheat and to expose the fallen angels who must be taken from the earth.

Demand that Almighty God bind the hate and hate creation directed against the Woman and her seed and bind the injustices on all sides. Pray that the people of light in every nation are protected. Pray for the transmutation of the karma of the laggard evolutions in this part of the world and its weight upon all people. Ask for forgiveness for all involved in the bloodshed.<ref>Mother Mary and the Seven Archangels, October 11, 1997, {{POWref|44|10}}</ref>

<blockquote>

In order to loosen the hold of the laggards and secure the blessing of freedom to all earth’s posterities,... this gift is now given:

All sincere students and chelas of the ascended masters who apply their hearts to their own God Presence I AM, asking that they be made a divine channel through which the power and presence of one or more of the Universal Christs located on other systems of worlds shall flow during hours of sleep—or even consciously as the Great Law directs—shall promptly and without delay be vested with our power in accordance with the cosmic law in order to enable these Christs to anchor their radiation and presence in the physical, thinking, feeling and memory worlds of such volunteers so as to provide a means whereby a Cosmic Christ can be assigned to each laggard on this planet ... in order to help control the spread of discord and transmute their thoughts and feelings to love for the light!...  

Thus, I enlist your decree power and your momentum. Not only in this conference ... but every day after you leave this place, remember: there are souls of darkness who are weighing down the youth of the world, the children, the babes in the womb, families and lightbearers who are working against all odds ... to complete their projects for humanity....

Take the opportunity to call for the binding of the dweller-on-the-threshold of the laggards being taken and even of those who are remaining. For that will be an assist to them to perhaps see the light and decide they may want to live forever in the heart of God, Elohim.<ref>Lord Himalaya, June 29, 1995, {{POWref|47|1}}</ref>

In these excerpts we see the progression of the Brotherhood’s dispensations and strategies in dealing with the laggards. The very weight of the laggard evolutions increases the likelihood of earth changes and world war. They must be exposed, bound, judged and removed from the earth.<ref>Mother Mary, April 20, 1997, {{POWref|44|12}}</ref>

Understand, then, that only an immense counterweight of the light of freedom can make the difference at the Geneva Conference, or wherever it may be held. Only this secret ingredient of those who are students of the ancient mysteries will, as you say, do the trick. But, beloved ones, hearts are willing. And this is the great redemption, that when the ascended masters come forth in answer to your call, there is a transfer of their hearts’ chalice into the hearts of the people. And the very ones who have said, “We will not give one inch” are suddenly saying, “Everything is negotiable.”

Beloved ones, when people can see the moving stream of consciousness in time and space as the relative good and evil, when people can worship at the altar of the Elohim of Peace and resolve to conform all human events to peace with honor, then that comeasurement will release to them from the mind of God, as Peres said, answers which were not thought of a few moments or a few hours before. Therefore in deliberation, in negotiation, in meditation, and in prayer, let those who have seen enough of war come to our council table, come to the Darjeeling Council, and review not only current events but the records of karma which manifest today as cosmic justice in the Middle East and yet appear to some to be injustice.

<blockquote>

We can see that some of these demands [of the leaders of Egypt and Israel] are based upon fear and some are based upon pride and some are based upon hatred. But above all, Saint Germain commented to me this morning that the hearts of people were very much desirous of peace, but they had a certain mental intransigence. Their minds are incapable of coming into alignment with their hearts. The Israelis polarize mentally and the Arab nations polarize emotionally. We find that these conditions, then, must be counteracted and balanced if the minds of the people are going to meet at the point of the heart. And this is the problem that we encounter.

There must be compromise on both sides. And the factions in the Arab world outside of Sadat seem not willing to compromise. In fact, many Arabs do not even care to recognize that Israel exists at all, because Israel was formed out of Arab territory at the conclusion of World War II by the United Nations. The Arabs feel that Israel is territory that has been stolen from them by an international body over which they have had no say. The Israelis feel that this is their homeland established for thousands of years and they have a right to this land, especially in the view of the slaughter of the Jews during the Second World War. So we find no matter what is right or wrong on either side of the question that cosmic justice is outworking.  

Now the Jews have returned, as they say, according to the fulfillment of prophecy.<ref>There are many passages in the Old Testament prophets that speak of the tribes of Israel being gathered together again (e.g. Deut. 30:1–5; Isa. 11:11–12; Jer. 29:14; Ezek. 20:41–42), and many Jews and evangelical Christians see modern Israel as the fulfillment of these prophecies. However, it is no longer possible for the twelve tribes to be traced by physical descent: one reason is that the ten northern tribes lost their identity after they were deported to Syria in 721 B.C., and only the tribes of Judah and Benjamin and some Levites retained their identity as Jews. Therefore the twelve tribes are traced today by reincarnation rather than by bloodlines. The messenger has explained that these prophecies refer to the gathering of the reincarnated twelve tribes in America, the New Jerusalem. See [[Twelve tribes of Israel]]</ref> And it is time for the resolution of the conflict between the mother energies. There is no conflict with Abraham. The conflict comes with Sarah and Hagar. So it is by the initiation of the Mother flame, her crucifixion in this hour, that all peoples come to a resolution. And so let us invoke the Mother flame, which is the white-fire core of purity that is focused in the Middle East, in Serapis Bey’s ascension temple. And out of the white light of the Mother, let us visualize all races and peoples coming into love because their mothers have both been the object of the love of Abraham, the great patriarch. And their mother truly is the Cosmic Mother, for the Cosmic Mother is in all mothers.

And so if we can tackle in our decrees this misqualification of energy in the Matter body—fire, air, water and earth—the misqualification through the four types of animal magnetism, we will be getting at the very core of the conflict. The core of the conflict, then, must be decreed on from that starting point, from that hatred that was first in Sarah and Hagar, and as it has been translated through these generations....
