In
trudging the road to happy destiny, we became hopeful that a new direction
could let sojourners accomplish a goal in half the time that it was taking
us. As a matter of fact, we are at a point that we believe that it
might take one third of the amount of time that we have spent in the
journey to the Kingdom of God. If this is your hope, may God's
blessings completely fulfill you.
"To get
to the real purpose of this chapter, let us reveal the next Scripture in
Genesis 28:11-12; That night when he stopped to camp at sundown, he
found a rock for a headrest and lay down to sleep, and dreamed that a
staircase reached from earth to heaven, and he saw angels of God going up
and down upon it.
"To us,
this symbolically represents people getting their feet on the ground in
one of the anonymous
fellowships, and then letting heaven come to us, if you get our
drift. If you are not in one of the anonymous fellowships, you might
need to ask God to help you seek one out so that you too can get engaged
in the process.
"Our
analogy of this is to state that most of us were really high flyers.
We were higher in the heavens, or sky, than God Himself. We first,
with the steps in the anonymous deal, came back to earth, and then
The
Twelve
in the noahhite program brought God and His Kingdom to us. Thank God,
we are finally out of the human animal kingdom.
"Based
on a Scripture that we will reveal shortly, we are bold enough to believe
that the spirit of Moses and Aaron visited Bill W. and Dr. Bob, the
co-founders of Alcoholics Anonymous, based on Isaiah 11:11. If you
recall, earlier in this book, Moses' one single act of disobedience
angered the Lord. Subsequently, Joshua took the people of Israel in
to the Promised Land, after the death of Moses. Well, we believe
that this book is being written in the spirit of Joshua.
"What
we do not want to do is anger the Lord if we are to be helpful on a global
scale. And it seems
that if we cannot learn how to be obedient, then not only will He not use
us, He cannot. Eve's original rebellion has cost humans all the pain
that God is going to allow for those that will turn to Him.
"We now
ask for perfect understanding of Joshua 1:1-2; AFTER THE DEATH of
Moses, the Lord's disciple, God spoke to Moses' assistant, whose name was
Joshua, and said to him, 'Now that my disciple is dead, you are the
new leader of Israel. Lead my people across the Jordan River into
the Promised Land.'
"The
Twelve that God has revealed to us lets God's Spirit be born in us so that
we may be completely reborn, in order to learn how to receive the true
free soul. No more wandering around
in the wilderness for forty years wondering about this or that. But
we were engaged in spiritual warfare. We now have a true hope of
what the future holds for us, because of the true faith that God creates
in the new heart that is awakened, which we believe is worth waiting for,
no matter what the journey might entail, in order to share in His
Glory. Luke 17:20-21 is also perfect reading. It is about the
Kingdom of God being in you!
"Another point, before we reveal The Beginning Staircase for HIS
Temple. We do not believe that God is going to cancel this Scripture
in Isaiah 40:31 either; But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew
their strength. They shall mount up with wings like eagles; they
shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.
"Fourteen years after we turned to His Son, repentantly, it has been
revealed to us that we are to reveal only the first two steps of The
Twelve of HIS FATHER'S TEMPLE in this book. More will be revealed to
those that earnestly seek.
"It has
been our intent, from the beginning of this exercise and process, to
include The Twelve that we believe we were given in the fifth chapter, but
things keep changing on us don't they? We are sure that God's plan
is perfect in every way, so we are just obeying what we believe. The
Twelve, to be revealed in VISION QUEST, will have much more meaning and impact
after a minimum of three and a half years of learning how to practice
twelve spiritual principles in any of the anonymous programs of recovery.
"As a
matter of fact,
The
Twelve will be revealed in the chapter on prayer,
after the chapter on our emotions being healed in VISION QUEST. As
St. Paul taught us, we did not even know how to pray because we were such
emotional tornadoes and hurricanes. Patience really is required,
isn't it?
Beginning
of The Twelve
"2. Came to believe that the
spiritual awakening, freely given, as the result of the appropriate
Anonymous Twelve Step effort, could let all noahhites receive Heaven, no
matter how narrow the gate.
"1. We noahhites admitted that
we were finally desirous of experiencing God's Kingdom, in the here and
now, in lieu of all other yearnings.
"Wow,
the order has changed on us.
"Does it seem
that the first commandment of love God with all of our mind, strength,
might, and heart is still important to Him? His second commandment
of love your neighbor as yourself does not look like it is going to change
either, does it?
"Well, at least we can give you a clue that there is not a lot of mandatory
writing in this one. Thanks God. We truly appreciate the reprieve."
