Tonight's lesson is going to be in two parts. The both are about understanding how things really work in us and other people. The first part is understanding Greed. GREED Many will remember the day I mentioned that I looked up the word "Greed" in the Bible. Had anyone asked me prior to looking, I would have thought the word would have been there many times. When it wasn't there at all, I was shocked. When Rosalind asked if it was in The AED, I searched each and every time it was mentioned and printed it. I also looked up and got the definition of the word "Greed" from the dictionary. So exactly what is greed? The dictionary definition is "a selfish and excessive desire for more of something (as money) than is needed." Pete and I applied the dictionary definition of the word each and every time it was mentioned in The AED, but the dictionary definition didn't work; it's incomplete. While the component of wealth plays a part of things, it isn't the case that money is the whole story. In fact, it really doesn't even approach ½ of it. Every time the word is used in The AED, there is a CONTROL FACTOR involved and it is the control of things The Most High is against which you'll also note isn't in the Dictionary Definition at all. So Pete and I came up with a new definition of what Greed is. It is Control one-step away from Enslavement! We tested this and we found it worked to our satisfaction. Ask Pete to share something about our experience. Now think about this. When anyone looks at what The Most High, in terms of the Penalty on the Nations, desires for El Aku we cannot say it is Greed. For those who've ever looked at the amount of money involved, it is in GREAT/TREMENDOUS abundance. One could say it is an obscene amount of money. So IF Greed is the "sin" that we've been told over the centuries that it is, then that would mean the Most High is Greedy – something we cannot wrap our heads around righteously. We cannot make that work in our own minds. With this in mind, it becomes easy to understand it isn't a wrong thing for Wal-Mart, as an example, to make a profit nor is it wrong for George Soros to make a lot of money. In fact, they can ALL make a lot of money. BUT, what they are DOING is one-step away from Enslavement. At Wal-Mart people cannot earn enough money to stay current with comfortable living and pay their bills; they cannot get ahead. Workers have had their hours cut. Wal-Mart deliberately makes scheduling difficult and enough people can't get second jobs in the process due to the schedule conflicts. The list goes on and on. George Soros - He wants to control the world. He's facilitated the manipulation of economies so countries are Economically Enslaved and so are the people. I know in my own mind when I've heard Bobby say, "when I'm running the world", I've interpreted that to mean Bobby would control the situation and everything would be better because He's the Anointed, Owner of this planet, and it would be better for him to be in control than any other individual because he's a Righteous Man and he's the Anointed of this Generation of Fire! After going through the exercise of understanding what Greed REALLY means, this is not what Bobby said or intended at all. ALL of us know within ourselves that ALL the teachings of Bobby are teachings to break the ties and/or bonds of everything controlling us – even when it is us doing control to ourselves one-step away from enslavement. Re-read "The What Would I have of You" essay and you'll understand this POWERFUL difference; it's incredible! Off the scale….. http://theakurians.com/AkurianDocuments/PDF%20Documents/What%20would%20I%20have%20of%20you.pdf We've all been inspired by these words in The AED: 0122 ""In the Very Beginning of Time, I created many Heavens, and many Realms, and many Planes, and many Places; and I established the order of them, and the nature of them, both Righteous and Evil: that there be Excellence of Knowledge and Wisdom wheresoever creation should be. Then unto all the Heavens and all the Realms and all the Planes and all the Places I created the first of all Living Souls: with free will to become as I am, for I am a God of Life and I want many to be as I am, that I may become greater to provide more life and more abundance for all I have created. There is no part of these statements that are one-step away from enslavement from The Most High. The Most High is not a slave owner nor is He a slave. So why is this specifically important now? Because We, the Akurians, cannot replace the one-step away from enslavement perpetrated by the likes of the George Soros' of the world with an Akurian version of one-step away from enslavement! And, enough of the Akurian version of enslavement ENERGY is on our invocations and it applies to ALL the sources we use to do them with. Things, sources, forces, energies, et cetera out there want to do an Akurian job as we command because of our Righteousness. They aren't to be controlled one-step away from enslavement or to enslave. The energy of control one-step away from enslavement accounts for A Reason (yes, there are others) our invocations aren't working as effectively as they could/should. Yes, we are getting results, but each and every one of us KNOWS in truth they could ALL work so much better! We've ALL asked, framed the questions in our own mind, or have said something to this effect. Think about it for a second – wasn't that the whole objective of Lucifer and the Demons – to control and enslave? So, on these points, we've got some thinking and very deeply rooted programming to undo. Figuring it out and being about the business of figuring it out is going to be incredible in terms of our own successes and some things are VERY easy to apply. :)
