There was indeed The Lord God Almighty. The Entity who made the universe and, ultimately, the Earth. God is to be referred to as a "He" as this is how He is presented to me and therefore feels right.

If you look at all the ancient teachings and writings there is an Entity that emerges from the heavens and populates the Earth - they cannot all be wrong.

I am told that God is the manufacturer of all original living things that have been upon the Earth. There is no "evolution" as such, mutations yes, as in viruses and occasionally in humans and any flora or fauna but if you believe in evolution, please show me an example with all the steps in between that are still evolving - show me any example with steps in between that are still evolving, there are none.

How can it be believed that a being as complex and adaptable as the human form could just spontaneously rise up from somewhere as a new species. We do not fit into any natural pattern within nature, no other flora or fauna is dependant upon us for its existence, if the human race died out today the rest of nature would carry on regardless. In fact, we are the interlopers of the Earth with the power and the ability to destroy everything - we are, in fact, a heavenly experiment.

God made two humans, a male and a female, so intricate and advanced that ultimately they would not strictly obey his wishes so they were given free will. They began the populating of the Earth and their offspring lived for many centuries on a descending scale of longevity until a life span of around 70 years was reached. During this period, God had to intervene so much to maintain some sense of order to his experiment that he appointed angels (humans with additional powers to heal and guide but who were largely innocent of the fount of these powers) to keep the experiment on track. Finally he decided to appoint Jesus as the overall custodian of his Earthly Realm who came to us in human form to intercede and show us the error of our ways but still we were allowed free will. It is thought that, sometime soon, Jesus will have to come amongst us again to prevent us from destroying ourselves and ending this amazing experiment.

We live once in human form. Formed from the combination of our ancestors in our genetic make up. The way we are and the thoughts we have are formed from thousands of years of human existence. If you like, this is our evolvement. When we die our spirit or soul moves to a higher formless existence and collectively helps God in his administration of the Universe.

God gave us love and love emanates from our hearts, not our brains. Just think where you felt most uplifted on a given occasion where love is present. Love in all its forms, a mother for her child, a sister for a sister, a man for a woman, a love of nature or a song or special thing, the list seems endless. The best, most amazing, most nourishing and glorious is the love that God has for us and the reciprocating love that we can invoke for Him. I have been most fortunate and have experienced, directly, the love of God sent in that ubiquitous "white light" in my case in a dream. This is an experience so earth shattering, so profound, so exciting and so wondrous that it is impossible to convey sufficiently. Your love is the most precious and powerful emotion that you have with untold power to heal and do good. We are all blessed with this wonderful capability if we care to recognise and use it.

As we have free will so we are capable of dismissing love in favour of doubt and evil. The "devil" is within the reach of all of us. There is no entity with this name, it is the result of the path that we choose in life and the punishment is meted out within this life. As we grow older and begin to reflect upon our lives and the results of the path we have chosen, punishment for the bad things we have done is there in our minds and cannot be expunged, the worse we have been the more horror is stored up for later. We may be able to hide this from others but in our hearts we know how bad we have been and it hurts in equal measure.

Consider our bodies. We have the power to heal ourselves to a greater extent than we allow ourselves to believe. How was it that our early ancestors could have such great longevity without doctors and drugs. They lived a simpler life without additives and processed food and practiced the power of collective healing for each other with hands-on and meditative powers which we now call prayer. This assistance in times of need also promoted self-belief stimulating the body's massive ability to heal itself. People became aware of the body's lines of flow and where to intercede to best assist the healing processes. Our eyes and feet, both at the extremities, show the current state of our health and can be used as diagnostic tools and, in the case of the feet, as a means to assist healing. 

Doctors and drugs currently have their place in our existence but they have largely tried to supercede the natural ability of the body to heal itself instead of being holistic and thus often cause poisonous side effects which also have to be overcome before we feel better. Fortunately we are becoming more aware of synergy and a gradual groundswell of opinion is making the medical world sit up and notice this vital requirement so there is hope in this field yet.

Sometimes you may come across a person who you feel is very special but not who you have "fallen in love with". They may do good works or speak profound thoughts or just be good to be with. They may uplift you spirits from a distance or heal you with their hands. These people are angels. There are many around you. These are the people who have chosen largely the good path in life and think much of other people, seeing the other person's point of view or problem and trying, in many different ways, to help. We can all aspire to becoming angels it is a state that can be reached at any time of life. Just think of a time when you were at your lowest ebb and someone came along and said or did something that profoundly altered you life - it was probably an angel. It is unfortunate that occasionally a person may pretend to be angel-like in order to perpetrate evil, of this you have to beware.

There may be more as time allows but until then you may wish to agree or berate me, but remember, my thoughts are pure and written with love.
