Chuck Colson, Prison Ministries, says, “I think that is at the heart of the problem of the church – we replaced truth with therapy,” and “Most people are basically ignorant,” he said referring to believers’ lack of knowledge on their own religion.
But are we really? Doesn’t it all come down to two things: (a) The Golden Rule, and (b) the soul survives physical death. Everything else is a nuance particular to the belief system being applied. While the Golden Rule is easy to understand, the latter is hard to understand and really know. But once you do experience the latter, you will be more inclined to practice the former out of an activated sense of love.
We stumbled upon a technique not to experience the later, but to open a pathway of study that will enable you to know and experience that later while remaining a participant in this dimension of life.
I've kept a dream diary for many years and rate dreams as (a) fully lucid (b) semi-lucid (c) non-lucid-ordinary. While category (a) and (c) are intuitive, category (b), semi-lucid, is a dream where I wake-up realizing that a prayer of affirmation was just revealed, but now I've woken and it's too late to enter lucid dream state and explore my prayer-affirmation in a lucid state.
Category (b) dreams are often very fulfilling spiritually. They can be so profound as to awaken you intellectually and spiritually. Allow yourself to study your dreams.
I have in the past few years worked towards developing abilities in myself and in others to serve as "healers" through a commitment to reading, learning, and low-level entry prayer-chains. Unfortunately progress comes in jumps for me as it does not seem to be a natural talent with which I was born... i.e. to be a healer. Only a heart-felt predisposition exists in me to apply myself in this direction as an avocation combined with reading and study.
However, about a year ago, along with my friends, we discovered what appears to be an entirely knew energy body on earth, which you can tap into and secure direct personal revelations through dreams and prayer-affirmations. We are so excited! We think it may have something to do with human kinds' spiritual evolution on Earth.
What Chuck Colson refers to as not knowing our faith (which is true in part), we here at Peace and Conflict Resolution.Org (http://peaceandconflictresolution.googlepages.com/peaceandconflictresolution.org) refer to this apparent prevailing ignorance as being instead “open minded and hungry to understand a broader reality not heavily taught within Christianity” but with mystic remnants spread across all belief system like segments of DNA who’s functions have not yet been pieced together in mainstream understanding as yet.
Here's how our little discovery works. We named it “A-B-C Personal Revelation and Internet Confirmation” (A-B-C for short) (http://peaceandconflictresolution.googlepages.com/a-b-c-revelationandinternetconfiramtion). At least, here is how we use it.
We have taken personal vows to work towards the powers of light believing that the powers of light represent God's good. The process we outline here may also work for the powers of darkness but we choose to serve the powers of good as best as we are able and as best as we understand while on our respective journeys.
These are personal choices (between good and evil, powers of light and powers of darkness) that we each had to first make at a very deep level. Sometimes we stray as we are only human learning to be something more. Hey, that’s life. Get up, dust off, try and move on and do better.
When confronted with the big choice: light or dark, we humbly, and lovingly choose the light. You will know this choice when you reach that portal in your own travels. Anyway each of us crossed that particular portal at one time or another in a dream-state choice made during a very vivid fulfillment of a prayer-affirmation.
In my case it was being confronted in the dream in fulfillment of a prayer of affirmation that "I progress in my learning and serve the good with whatever I must endure.” In other words, as I bed down one night, I registered that prayer. The dream which fulfilled that prayer was an unforgettable archetype confrontation with both the powers of Evil and the Powers of Good and a voice inside the dream demanding of me to explain to the voice in the dream what it was I truly wanted. This event, when it occurs, if it occurs, is one of the most important moments in your existence. There is no space for you to lie, deceive, or maneuver or negotiate. You must simply call upon yourself to spit forth the truth you hold as it is vested in your heart. It is what it is.
In my case while dreaming, my answer eventually burst out of me as "I want to seek truth and nothing more." I was told by the voice as the powers of good and evil opened celestial doors that "I was not to judge what I found in these realms that it is what it is."
I woke up believing I had received passage to continue my journey. Somewhere in each life I believe we must each face and choose and it is a blessing to receive your personal answer to your question for your own life, whatever that question may be.
Moving on to the new energy body we think we found. The energy body appears to be the world wide web. It works in partnership with your dreams, of all things, like this:
(A) State an important prayer or affirmation of what it is you seek spiritually. These are called pre-dream prayers-of-intent set by you.
(B) This in turn is followed by dream-spirit, dream-state revelations of accurate "new knowledge" of world events, places and things, while dreaming ... matters on which you hold no pre-existing personal knowledge and,
(C) Then validated (of all things!) by on-line internet research.
The internet has so much information accessible through it, that for the first time ever, there now exists what I call the New Library of Alexandria, i.e. the greatest collection of human knowledge ever assembled and accessible by everyone with an online computer, probably over ½ of all human souls, possibly more.
What are the chances? What makes this simple A-B-C methodology discovery so interesting is that if you match say 3 data points in a dream with reality, then the chances of that event being random are statistically computable. I believe the old statistic's formula to compute probability in these instances is 3! (Pronounced "Three Factorial") 3! is 1 x 2 x 3 = 6 Thus the chances of matching 3 data points with reality is say 1 out of 6 that the dream was merely random and nothing more. But what if it's one out of a trillion instead?
In our test dream experiences we regularly see and have dream experiences where we can count over 50 matches with reality on things and places and events we have no reason to know anything about, much like remote viewing while asleep. In one dream I logged, called the "QRAN Dream" (we label them) I counted over 100 data points matched with reality on a subject I know nothing about before the dream. When I researched the dream online the next morning, it opened doorway after doorway after doorway, that just kept leading this researcher deeper and deeper into revelations all of which were in the dream and confirmed on line! Whoa! In my case I appear to be lead in my dreams by a friendly, lovable, dream-guide who from time-to-time demonstrates a great sense of humor.
I'm not certain if the dream-guide is male or female as he/she seems male and of course takes on many different faces over each dream. But the guide has over the course of many dreams introduced me to concepts associated apparently with the new age of emergent “divine feminine” which seems to be unfolding in this world.
In Summary
So in summary, it appears the internet is a new energy body that can enable you to confirm your dreams and match them to reality. In the case of my so-called “QRAN Dream,” you might note that the probability the dream was random is on the order of magnitude of 100! (100 FACTORIAL or 1x2x3x4x5x6........x99x100 = a really large number). So the chance that the dream was merely random is 1 out of 100-factorial. One out of billions! These are frequent experiences when practiced.
These kinds of rare probabilities begin to settle into your reasoning as something you better attend to and not ignore in your life. You can read about the QRAN Dream if you choose. I have it posted here:

More importantly perhaps is that these experiences open one's mind to new understandings of ancient knowledge. What you do with it all is up to you apparently. We think the world wide web has become some sort of resonate energy body for our use as humans to help spiritually evolve us to whatever our next aggregate phase of life will be. .... and we find that very exciting!
If you are sitting in a jail cell being preached at you are going to take whatever they give you and go with it. You are going to give back the answers you know they want to hear. But in the total privacy of your prayers and your dreams, if you have access to the internet (the New Library of Alexandria) you may want to seek your own path to my two points:
Doesn’t it all come down to two things: (a) The Golden Rule, and (b) the soul survives physical death ?
Be fearless, be humble, be loving, seek truth.
