Monday Night Chat: 01-15-07
(09:22:06) (mark) A1-A did you fine out about Hermes?
(09:22:50) (Al-A) I already knew mark.
(09:23:24) (Al-A) I was just hoping someone else might bother doing some homework.
(09:23:25) (Bill) 2 wks. ago i gave everyone homework to find out what the readings say about Hermes
(09:24:05) (mark) i still fell he was
(09:24:21) (ron) for one thing he was the messenger of the gods :)
(09:25:47) (Al-A) And?
(09:25:47) (Leon) The Trilogy Study - is new to me
(09:26:01) (Al-A) Did they say he was an incarnation of Jesus?
(09:26:08) (merri) this is a note from GD
(09:26:14) (merri) GD's memo: Because of the inferences in Text of Reading 281-10 and others from time to time, it would seem to be implied that Jesus had an incarnation in Egypt at the time of Ra-Ta under the name of Hermes. [See 5748-5 and [294] -
(09:26:28) (Bill) well i for once followed my own advice and spent a liitle time
(09:26:34) (Al-A) I did not see the reading that way.
(09:26:42) (ron) of course not
(09:26:45) (Al-A) I saw that He was there at that time.
(09:26:55) (Al-A) But not necessarilly as Hermes.
(09:27:02) (Al-A) That was conjecture.
(09:27:12) (merri) your entitled to your opinion
(09:27:25) (merri) other don't agree with your assumption
(09:27:27) (ron) yes, merri, opinion
(09:27:27) (Bill) all that i could find on the Readings CD was it said that the readings seem to indicate that Hermes was an incarnation of Jesus
(09:28:00) (Al-A) They assumed it was Hermes because of Cayces ties to the Master.
(09:28:23) (WalksInSpirit) Yep, that is what I presented last night, Bill. What was on the CD-ROM.
(09:28:24) (Lory) Does it really matter? Is it worth all of the hullabaloo that is going on about it?
(09:28:42) (Al-A) You presented reading numbers WIS.
(09:29:04) (WalksInSpirit) With notes, had you taken time to read what I gave you, Joey.
(09:29:08) (Al-A) Not the information he gave that would bring one to the conclusion that he had been Hermes.
(09:29:16) (Al-A) I read everything.
(09:29:29) (ron) ARE research seems to suggest this!
(09:29:30) (mark) ok we have the do's and don't,..so let's drop it?
(09:29:33) (merri) well others seem to have come to that conclusion
(09:29:38) (Leon) Jesus is my other self and he can be whomever he pleases.
(09:29:43) (ron) and they are more qualified than you and me
(09:30:01) (Al-A) Well how many actually meditated upon it?
(09:30:04) (WalksInSpirit) Exactly, Ron. Namely, John Van Auken. ;-)
(09:30:10) (ron) :)
(09:30:10) (Al-A) Not the me.
(09:30:13) (Al-A) Maybe you.
(09:30:20) (Al-A) Not then me.
(09:30:24) (ron) you don't meditate A1
(09:30:29) (ron) :)
(09:30:42) (Al-A) How would you know.
(09:30:46) (Bill) well lets get on with this evenings lesson River of Time part 7
(09:30:51) (ron) unless its on backyard weed
(09:30:56) (Lory) Please let us not bicker.........
(09:30:59) (Al-A) More lies.
(09:31:03) (Al-A) But that is OK
(09:31:07) (ron) i know A! :)
(09:31:13) (Al-A) ]AS your father is the fasther of them.
(09:31:25) (Al-A) You don't know nuthin.
(09:31:34) (ron) time for name calling :)
(09:31:38) (Al-A) But the lies lold about me around here.
(09:31:57) (mark) Bill is starting study
(09:32:11) (Al-A) Ron started it.
(09:32:21) (Bill) : “Not my will but Thine, O Lord, be done in me and through me. Let me ever be a channel of blessings, today, now, to those that I contact in every way. Let my going in, my coming out be in accord with that Thou would have me do, and as the call comes, ‘Here am I, send me, use me!’ “. ( 262-3) Amen
(09:32:23) (Lory) Amen
(09:32:28) (Al-A) With the blind accusations.
(09:32:30) (MaryAnne) Amen
(09:32:31) (WalksInSpirit) Nunwe
(09:32:31) (Wanda) Love the title "The River of Time"
(09:32:37) (Al-A) Which are the norm around this place.
(09:32:41) (mark) Amen
(09:32:42) (ron) amen
(09:32:43) (merri) Amen
(09:32:46) (Leon) Of blessing, Amen
(09:33:04) (Wanda) Amen
(09:33:51) (Bill) chapter 5:..At its inception grace was a gift to each soul by the Christ. All souls came into being through the Christ, and as free will was a gift to them from God, grace, ‘something given, not earned’’, was the gift of the Christ.
(09:35:25) (mark) All souls came into being through the Christ
(09:36:34) (Bill) The soul has not had the opportunity to earn grace at its birth, but like a bank account it was to be drawn upon when needed. Amilius came into the earth to seek those souls that had become ‘lost’, and he, being a Son of God, heir to the riches of His Father’s house, brought the jewel of grace to set in His earthly kingdom.
(09:37:35) (ron) "given, not earned"...then, "the soul has not had the opportnity to EARN grace "...?
(09:37:40) (Bill) Because of grace the wayward ones can resume communication with the Father, regain their son-ship and return to the Father’s house
(09:38:40) (Bill) The fifth chapter of Genesis is the book of the generations of Adam. It follows the direct line leading up to Noah, who kept himself free from pollutions. Why, after Noah had sidestepped temptation for so long to keep a pure body, did he permit the vineyard to be his downfall?
(09:38:41) (ron) sorry, just wondering over here...:)
(09:39:09) (Bill) i have my opions on that matter Ron as well
(09:39:22) (ron) :)
(09:39:28) (Bill) The vineyard is the symbol of his earthly riches with which he then became so intoxicated that he was not able to overcome the greatest temptation. He partook of material experiences in excess, which included all those evils built in the land before the flood.
(09:39:52) (Bill) The Edgar Cayce readings give a new insight into the activities of the people of this era ad of which Noah and his family became the symbol. Noah’s vineyard was located on one of the islands remaining after the flood, which was the second inundation of the continent; the island possible was Poseidia.
(09:40:39) (Bill) “Q-5: What were the principal islands called at the time of the final destruction?
(09:40:46) (Bill) “A-5: Poseidia and Aryan and Og.” (364-6)
(09:41:01) (Bill) After the second inundation there ensued a period of nearly 18,000 years during which the Atlanteans built a fabulous civilization. Great was the power of the Sons of God in this experience; Noah’s intoxication is the symbol of the debauchery and the misuse of this power by the Sons of God ~~ a misuse which eventually overcame them.
(09:41:53) (Bill) Genesis 9:20-24:‘And Noah began to be an husbandman,and he planted a vineyard, and he drank of the wine, and was drunken, and he was uncovered within his tent. And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without.
(09:42:21) (Bill) And Shem and Japheth took a garment and laid it upon both their shoulders, and went backward and covered the nakedness of their father, and their faces were backward and they saw not their father’s nakedness. And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him.’
(09:43:13) (Bill) With this we are shown again the difference in development between those of the sons of evil or Satan, and the Sons of God, in their Atlantean setting. From the sons of Noah came the two lines of man’s evolution ~~ the Sons of God who covered their father’s nakedness, and the sons of men (or sons of Lucifer) who gratified their senses.
(09:43:51) (Bill) The sons of Noah are symbols of the activity that was being expressed by all peoples. Selfish desires had begun to overcome the sons of God as well as the sons of Lucifer.
(09:44:18) (Bill) Genesis 6:11-13: ‘The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence. And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth. And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me;
(09:44:48) (Bill) for the earth is filled with violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth.’
(09:45:11) (Bill) Certain of the Atlantean Sons of God had fore-knowledge of the deluge to come and prepared places of refuge in Egypt, Yucatan, Peru, the Pyrenees and Carpathia, that there would be preserved the knowledge of the one God in the earth for the generations that would inhabit the earth after the flood.
(09:45:42) (Bill) The Bible refers to this preparation as ‘The Rivers that went out of the Garden to water the earth’.
(09:46:01) (Bill) After the final destruction of Atlantis, with her vast civilization and enlightenment, man was reduced to the status of tiller of the soil, to begin on the material level of consciousness he had established in the earth. ‘On his own’ he must now climb the ladder of evolution.
(09:46:33) (Bill) God’s love for His children provided another way for the continued entering of souls into material. Those that had lost their own physical creations in the flood could now incarnate again on earth, but with a new provision. Before a soul could enter, God must breathe the breath of life into the body.
(09:47:26) (Bill) Let it be here noted that the flood did not wash away that knowledge of evil which had been built in the soul; now it must b washed away by the blood, the carrier of the spiritual life in the material body. And because many would now be incarnating who had the ‘knowledge of good and evil’, and had,
(09:47:55) (Bill) before the flood, been a law unto themselves, rehabilitation would be, as it still is, most difficult.
(09:48:19) (Bill) Up to this time all the earth spoke one language, but with the breaking up of the land, many parts of the earth were isolated, and the confusion of tongues became part of their experience.
(09:49:07) (Bill) The Tower of Babel (Genesis 11:1-9) is the symbol of this confusion with which we struggle to this day. This same chapter of genesis follows the generations from Noah to Abraham, whose name God changed from Abram when He called him out of the land of Canaan and sent him into a new land. With this new beginning God promised Abraham, ‘I will make of thee a great nation’.
(09:49:56) (Bill) So Abraham took all that he had and, with those who had joined him, proceeded to lay the foundation for his nation.
(09:50:19) (Bill) Genesis 15:1 ~~ ‘After these things the word of the Lord came unto Abraham in a vision, saying, Fear not Abraham, I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.
(09:50:40) (Bill) Melchisedec, King of Salem, had already ministered to Abraham’s needs when he returned after rescuing Lot from the Sodomites. Melchisedec was the third incarnation of the Master, from Adam. The second was given as Enoch. (Genesis 5:24)
(09:51:37) (Bill) “And Enoch walked with God: and he was not, for God took him.” (364-10)
(09:51:51) (Bill) It is important to note that as Enoch and Melchisedec, Amilius had not been overcome by the material body to the degree that he could not move in and out at will.
(09:52:20) (Bill) “Q-19: Please list the names of the incarnations of the Christ, and of Jesus, indicating where the development of the man Jesus began.
(09:52:39) (Bill) “A-19: First, in the beginning, of course; and then as Enoch, Melchisedec, in the perfection. Then in the earth of Joseph, Joshua, Jeshua, Jesus.” (5749-14)
(09:53:04) (Bill) It is evident that Abraham knew who Melchisedec was when he blessed him, for he then paid him tithes.
(09:53:08) (Lory) This is only a short list and the main incarnations.
(09:53:36) (Bill) ‘Genesis 14:18 ~~ And Melchisedec, king of Salem, brought forth bread and wine: And he was the priest of the most high God.’
(09:53:45) (ron) J=10=1
(09:54:08) (Bill) ‘Genesis 14:20 ~~ and blessed be the most high God, which had delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.’
(09:54:30) (Bill) Jesus used both bread and wine again in Palestine. Although it was really bread and wine, it is also the symbol of spiritual food, such as we seek to partake of in the communion service to this day.
(09:54:48) (merri) Jesus is the man who became the Christ is that correct?
(09:55:00) (Bill) Yes
(09:55:03) (Bill) Next in the ‘chosen line’ was Isaac, the son of Abraham and Sarah. They were both advanced in years, far past the time when offspring could be expected. But this did not deter God from keeping the continuity of their line.
(09:55:29) (Bill) God’s promise to Abraham must have been very confusing to Sarah at her age, and it is not strange that she laughed. God took notice of this, but because of His grace, He still carried out His promised to Abraham, and Sarah bore a son when she was ninety and Abraham was one hundred years of age.
(09:56:09) (Bill) well i think on that note fathering a chil at 100 we'll call it an evening!
(09:56:27) (merri) why are they listed as separate incarnations
(09:56:30) (ron) maybe Abraham did too! :)
(09:56:35) (Lory) No picknick giving birth at 90 either, Bill.... :-)
(09:56:37) (merri) LOL
(09:56:46) (Cris) lol
(09:56:48) (Wanda) I can not imagine
(09:56:52) (Bill) not that his wife also had her challenges :o)
(09:57:49) (Bill) Merri all major religions were started by Jesus in one incarnation or another maybe these were some of them ?
(09:58:10) (Wanda) Is the list saying that Jeshua and Jesus were separate incarnations. I have seen it as an alternate spelling for Jesus
(09:58:42) (Bill) In Lives of the Master i'm sure it said thought it was yrs. ago i read it that Jesus either had 28 or 29 incarnations but it wasn't clear exactly which
(09:58:58) (Lory) I always had thought Jeshua was an alternate spelling of Joshua.
(09:59:29) (Bill) no reason why we couldn't have the same name in differing incarnations
(09:59:42) (Al-A) Correct.
(09:59:48) (Lory) And they have never been given in readings by Cayce either, Bill, to my knowledge.
(09:59:51) (ron) Jeshua is listed before Zend
(10:00:10) (ron) or, just before Jesus
(10:00:26) (ron) i think Zend is out of context
(10:00:50) (Leon) 33 incarnations Bill
(10:01:38) (Lory) I would say that is a very small amount of incarnations too, Leon, by the common man.
(10:02:41) (ron) leon, where is that note on 33 incarnations?...i am aware of this also
[/size](09:22:50) (Al-A) I already knew mark.

(09:45:11) (Bill) Certain of the Atlantean Sons of God had fore-knowledge of the deluge to come and prepared places of refuge in Egypt, Yucatan, Peru, the Pyrenees and Carpathia, that there would be preserved the knowledge of the one God in the earth for the generations that would inhabit the earth after the flood.

This same chapter of genesis follows the generations from Noah to Abraham, whose name God changed from Abram when He called him out of the land of Canaan and sent him into a new land. With this new beginning God promised Abraham, ‘I will make of thee a great nation’.
(09:49:56) (Bill) So Abraham took all that he had and, with those who had joined him, proceeded to lay the foundation for his nation.
(09:50:19) (Bill) Genesis 15:1 ~~ ‘After these things the word of the Lord came unto Abraham in a vision, saying, Fear not Abraham, I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.
(09:50:40) (Bill) Melchisedec, King of Salem, had already ministered to Abraham’s needs when he returned after rescuing Lot from the Sodomites. Melchisedec was the third incarnation of the Master, from Adam. The second was given as Enoch. (Genesis 5:24)
(09:51:37) (Bill) “And Enoch walked with God: and he was not, for God took him.” (364-10)
(09:51:51) (Bill) It is important to note that as Enoch and Melchisedec, Amilius had not been overcome by the material body to the degree that he could not move in and out at will.
(09:52:20) (Bill) “Q-19: Please list the names of the incarnations of the Christ, and of Jesus, indicating where the development of the man Jesus began.
(09:52:39) (Bill) “A-19: First, in the beginning, of course; and then as Enoch, Melchisedec, in the perfection. Then in the earth of Joseph, Joshua, Jeshua, Jesus.” (5749-14)
(09:53:04) (Bill) It is evident that Abraham knew who Melchisedec was when he blessed him, for he then paid him tithes.
(09:53:08) (Lory) This is only a short list and the main incarnations.
(09:53:36) (Bill) ‘Genesis 14:18 ~~ And Melchisedec, king of Salem, brought forth bread and wine: And he was the priest of the most high God.’
(09:53:45) (ron) J=10=1
(09:54:08) (Bill) ‘Genesis 14:20 ~~ and blessed be the most high God, which had delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.’
(09:54:30) (Bill) Jesus used both bread and wine again in Palestine. Although it was really bread and wine, it is also the symbol of spiritual food, such as we seek to partake of in the communion service to this day.
(09:54:48) (merri) Jesus is the man who became the Christ is that correct?
(09:55:00) (Bill) Yes
(09:55:03) (Bill) Next in the ‘chosen line’ was Isaac, the son of Abraham and Sarah. They were both advanced in years, far past the time when offspring could be expected. But this did not deter God from keeping the continuity of their line.
(09:55:29) (Bill) God’s promise to Abraham must have been very confusing to Sarah at her age, and it is not strange that she laughed. God took notice of this, but because of His grace, He still carried out His promised to Abraham, and Sarah bore a son when she was ninety and Abraham was one hundred years of age.
(09:56:09) (Bill) well i think on that note fathering a chil at 100 we'll call it an evening!
(09:56:27) (merri) why are they listed as separate incarnations
(09:56:30) (ron) maybe Abraham did too! :)
(09:56:35) (Lory) No picknick giving birth at 90 either, Bill.... :-)
(09:56:37) (merri) LOL
(09:56:46) (Cris) lol
(09:56:48) (Wanda) I can not imagine
(09:56:52) (Bill) not that his wife also had her challenges :o)
(09:57:49) (Bill) Merri all major religions were started by Jesus in one incarnation or another maybe these were some of them ?
(09:58:10) (Wanda) Is the list saying that Jeshua and Jesus were separate incarnations. I have seen it as an alternate spelling for Jesus
(09:58:42) (Bill) In Lives of the Master i'm sure it said thought it was yrs. ago i read it that Jesus either had 28 or 29 incarnations but it wasn't clear exactly which
(09:58:58) (Lory) I always had thought Jeshua was an alternate spelling of Joshua.
(09:59:29) (Bill) no reason why we couldn't have the same name in differing incarnations
(09:59:42) (Al-A) Correct.
(09:59:48) (Lory) And they have never been given in readings by Cayce either, Bill, to my knowledge.
(09:59:51) (ron) Jeshua is listed before Zend
(10:00:10) (ron) or, just before Jesus
(10:00:26) (ron) i think Zend is out of context
(10:00:50) (Leon) 33 incarnations Bill
(10:01:38) (Lory) I would say that is a very small amount of incarnations too, Leon, by the common man.
(10:02:41) (ron) leon, where is that note on 33 incarnations?...i am aware of this also
