LOVE, FAITH & STEWARDSHIP

“Verily, I say unto you, this generation shall not pass away until all that has been hidden is brought again into the light, for it is the epoch for the fulfillment of promise.”
Oracles of Celestine Light, Nexus 1:21

Illumination by the Jordan

CHAPTER 92

Yeshua teaches his Apostles including Yudas Iscariot, along with Salome, more of the mysteries of Celestine Light. He also teaches them how to be one with the Elohim, how to create a “Circle of Light” and the benefits of having commandments. He speaks about the Benjamite named Saul who will change his name to Paul, whom they will meet and what will transpire.

1 And it came to pass that Yeshua remained upon the Earth for forty days after his resurrection.
2 The first six days following his return he went in secret to the house of Lazarus in Bethany with Miriam, Salome and Martha and spent much time with all of their children.
3 Yeshua instructed the Apostles to also go and be with their families for six days. And so they all did.

Teachings in the Wilderness of Jordan
4 On the morning of the seventh day Yeshua, Miriam, Salome and all of the Apostles including Yudas Iscariot, departed from Bethany and went into the wilderness near the Jordan River and Yeshua began to teach them more of the mysteries of Celestine Light and the powers given unto them as Apostles and Children of Light.
5 They remained encamped near the Jordon for several days. Each day during the late afternoon Yeshua would answer questions that were asked and many mysteries were revealed by his answers, most of which cannot be written and recorded, but only spoken of within the Sacred Circles of the Children of Light.
6 The first day together in the wilderness everyone was caught up in the excitement of all of the marvels they were learning from Yeshua and they did not want the day to end, so much so that they pleaded with him to keep teaching them well into the night by the light of the moon and stars, and he did as they asked.
7 When he was finished speaking in the late hours of the night, Yeshua departed from them all and promised he would return again in the morning.
8 When the morning arrived the Apostles were still in the throngs of fatigue. The sun was already rising in the sky when Miriam came to where the men were sleeping to wake them, “Rouse yourselves brothers; you must be alert, for the Lord of Light comes even now.”
9 Suddenly there was a bright light upon the ground, and Yeshua stood before them. Miriam came to him and he held her and kissed her tenderly.
10 Then came Salome, and she fell to her knees and made to kiss his feet, but he raised her up and held her with Miriam and kissed her lightly on the lips.
11 Then Yeshua spoke to everyone present, saying, “I will not linger long upon the Earth, but ere I go for the last time, I shall teach you in the coming days the fullest mysteries of the kingdom of heaven and the Celestine Light which comes from it.
12 You shall learn that which you have never known or imagined. And with the knowledge I give, you will hold some of the power of the Elohim and will be able to do all manner of wonders, as long as you remain humble, and worthy stewards of the Celestine Light you are given.
13 Many of the things I shall reveal to you are the means to change that which is seen into something that is not seen; to affect and alter the minds of men and matter; to cause the properties of one substance to change into another; and how to travel in spirit anywhere in this world and beyond at the speed of thought to witness any event or to discover any secret of men.
14 Some of the things you shall learn can only be accomplished by worthy Children of Light having great experience and understanding of the foundations of Celestine Light that uphold all things which exist.
15 Others can be mastered even by the Ganish, simply by following the steps that open the secret doors to the unseen powers of Celestine Light that uphold the world that the world knows not.
16 Because these are merely steps taken in an exact manner to produce a result, they can be done by anyone who follows the steps; even the unworthy. Therefore, you must guard the secrets of the steps zealously, lest they become known to the unworthy who would call forth the hidden currents of power for unrighteous purposes.
17 Therefore, I give you a sacred trust: keep the secrets of that which I reveal only in your heads. Never let them be recorded upon a scroll that the unworthy could unveil and read.
18 With some secrets I teach, there is power simply in the form to call in the force, and this by anyone that follows the form; both the worthy and the unworthy, the righteous and the unrighteous.
19 And it shall come to pass that a handful of the secrets of the forms shall escape into the world, for the virtuous do not always remain so, and some shall stumble by the wayside.
20 Then shall there also be times when you will be seen by the Ganish calling upon the powers of Celestine Light and doing things which in the minds of men cannot be done.
21 And in their witness will be a remembrance of the form, even unto the words you said and the substances you mixed and the movements you made.
22 And so shall they emulate. A few will succeed in calling in some of the powers that can be called in by the forms of simplicity, even as priests, witches and sorcerers have been able to do since the days when they saw the first Children of Light using the powers of heaven upon the Earth.
23 Thus it shall come to pass that some of the forms and a small part of the power shall come to be known and used by witches, sorcerers and priests seeking to wield a power they know not, some for purposes of good, and some for evil.
24 A little healing they will do, but to them it will seem great. Small miracles they will accomplish, and though feeble, they shall acclaim them from the mountaintops.
25 But worry not at all for this, for the true power of Celestine Light, even to say unto a mountain, take up and be cast into the sea, or unto the paralytic, rise up and walk, or to the storm to come or go, they will be incapable of accomplishing.
26 Though they may know some of the forms that call in the power, they can never possess the Celestine Light of Elohim that is the activating force behind the greatest powers.
27 Only a worthy Child of Light can be one in completeness with the Celestine Light. And only by being one with the power of the light can it be called forth in its fullness and majesty.
28 Therefore always remember, there is far greater effect when the form is wielded by the righteous and virtuous, and greater still when it is manifest by those who are Children of Light that have been set apart and ordained by Elohim to be stewards of the Celestine Light, even as each of you has been, my brothers and sisters.
29 And it is not because of the witches and priests that you must never write the secrets of the inner sanctum, for they too will keep the secrets that they know, but to protect this knowledge from ever being possessed by the Caesars or the foolish.
30 With the Caesars, it is better to rot in prison, and even to pass in silence from this life, than to reveal that which I shall give to you. For even with a feather of the knowledge of the simplest forms, twisted for evil they could do great harm upon the land, and to the people.
31 Know that you are the stewards, not just of your families, and not just of the Family of Light, but of all the Earth. It is given to you to protect the land and the great waters upon the vastness and to serve all the inhabitants thereof, both man and beast, even as I have served you.
32 Let your light shine among the Children of Men that they will open their hearts to the Celestine Light of Elohim that they may become more than they have been, even unto inheriting the glory of the kingdom to come.
33 When I have passed beyond this Earth, you are ordained to be the bearers of the secrets that I shall give to you.
34 You may share these secrets in fullness only to the worthy; who are also baptized Children of Light; who love their bodies as temples inside and out; who have a firm foundation of understanding and proven ability with knowledge already received to warrant new and greater knowledge to be given; who live and cherish the Great Commandment and the Twelve Commandments of Sinai, and have been faithful stewards of all that has been given unto them.

Healing The Worthy in Need
35 You may also use the secret knowledge of Celestines to help any in the world who ask for your help with selflessness and love, in humility, and with sincere repentance of their sins. For all are spirit children of the Father and the Mother and deserving of the blessings of the Celestine Light when they are in harmony with it.
36 As they are prepared to receive the light, so shall it come into them through your hand and a miracle in the eyes of men shall be born.
37 I give you the power to heal both the small and the great, and nothing shall be impossible to you if it is within the will of Elohim to restore the human body to its health and wholeness, if you remain pure and humble, and are blessing a Child of Light committed to living as a temple.
38 When those who are not numbered among you seek you out for a blessing, the power of Celestine Light will flow through you in balance and equality to their faith, purity of heart, repentance of sins, and love for their temple and their fellow brothers and sisters of Elohim upon the Earth.
39 Those who have not faith to believe in things unseen and unknown, or who are not pure in heart- but think selfishly and deviously, or who have not repented of their sins, or love not their bodies but destroy their temple with the things they put inside or outside, or care not for the lives of their fellow brothers and sisters of the spirit children of Elohim upon the Earth- these have no promise and they cannot benefit from a blessing.
40 Not because you do not have the power, but because healing is a circle of light. It is only when the circle completes that the healing occurs.
41 You call in the great power of Celestine Light and send it unto those to be healed. In a Child of Light it is received; it heals, and it is sent back out to you with love and gratitude.
42 But a person of the world cannot send back the light, because they do not really believe in it.
43 They cannot send back the light because their character is flawed, and they do not seek to make the effort to live upon the mountain of higher ideals given to man, but seek instead the easy way wallowing in the swamp of that which is nothing.
44 They cannot send back the light because they have not repented of their sins, and when the healing light encounters unrepented sins it fades away, for the Celestine Light knows where it is not wanted.
45 They cannot send back the light because they do not treat their bodies as temples inside and out, and the light will not dwell in polluted waters.
46 They cannot send back the light because they are selfish and make no effort to serve and help their fellow brothers and sisters upon the Earth.
47 You are merely the riverbed of the stream that is the Celestine Light of Elohim. The light rushes forth to heal the pure and the less pure and the impure.
48 As each are open to the Celestine Light and have lived it in their lives, so each shall receive the portion that they can hold. The pure of heart and life made whole, and the less pure made less whole, and the impure not changed.
49 Ponder upon my words for in them are life eternal and dominion over disease and death before its time.

How To Be One With The Elohim
50 When you are alone you are a single lamp of the Celestine Light of Elohim, but far from alone, for Elohim, the Father, the Mother and the Son are with you. You will forever have their Holy Spirit to guide and direct your paths as long as you live the light.
51 When you are in solitude, call upon the Father and the Mother in my name with focused thought, a clear intent, and a heart that reaches beyond the world, and you will be one with the Elohim; with the Celestine Light, to accomplish the purposes you seek.
52 When you are gathered together, two or more reaching out to the Elohim, you must be of one heart and mind as you call upon the Celestine Light and the power it brings. Focus your thoughts and let your hearts reach out until they touch the heart of Elohim and you are one with the light.”
53 Toma asked, “Great Lord of Light, how may we do this wonder that you describe. How do we focus our thoughts and reach our heart beyond the world until it is one with Elohim and the light?”
54 Yeshua answered, saying, “You are in the world, but you should not be like it. If a man lives in the ways of the world, how would he know how to be one with God?
55 But it has been given to you to know the ways of the Elohim. You hold in your hearts and live in your lives the Great Commandment and the Twelve Commandments of Sinai.
56 You honor and respect your bodies as temples made by the Elohim and eat, sleep and work in ways that enhance the vitality of your temple.
57 You are continuously on a quest to gain more knowledge of the ways of the Celestine Light and as your knowledge grows so you are prepared to speak with intelligence to the Elohim about the mysteries of the kingdom.
58 As you live the way the Elohim live, your spirit is able to pass through the gate of Celestine Light and be in their presence, even as you are worthy vessels to have the Holy Spirit of Elohim upon you that they can come and be in your presence.
59 By this the table has been set and the meal prepared, and now the Elohim will come and sup at your table.
60 In humble prayer invite them to come to you and be one with you, and the Holy Spirit will fill your heart and speak in your mind, and you will for a moment, transcend the bonds of Earth and be one with the Celestine Light of Elohim in fullness.
61 Herein is the true power that is greater than the form. This is the power of the snake of Moses to eat the snakes of the priests of Pharaoh.
62 This is the power that the Sons and Daughters of Light used to lift the stones of the great pyramids of Egypt for the Pharaohs, allowing their community to live in peace and prosperity in the land of the Egyptians, and not in subjugation as were the Hebrews and other peoples.
63 This is the power that even if they knew, a witch, a sorcerer, a priest or a Caesar could never use, for they are unworthy vessels, and the Celestine Light of Elohim cannot dwell within them, nor the fullness of its power.”
Cephas Reminisces
64 Then Cephas who had been sitting, stood up saying, “Good Yeshua, what a marvel this is that each day we still have so much to learn from you.
65 What a wonderful journey you have taken us on. I recall when you used to come to the lake when you were still a young man, and it is overwhelming to remember all that has happened in our lives since then; all we have learned, all we have seen, and the promise of all that is to come.
66 Now you have shared still greater knowledge with us, when already I thought my cup was full and overflowing.
67 I myself am so different now than those long ago days at the lake that it sometimes seems as if I am visitor from another land as I pass through this place I have lived near all of my life.
68 I know what the Savasi must have felt like when they first returned to this world and began to live among the people of the land; in some ways just like them, but in others so very different.
69 Forgive me if I ramble. The understanding of the enormity of everything that you are and everything we are because of you, has just now come upon me like the eyes of a traveler being opened for onto the most amazing vista.
70 I think for the first time I have truly comprehended all that has transpired in our lives and all that is yet to be.” And tears began to well up in his eyes.
71 But he continued speaking through his tears, saying, “Thank you for the honor of being called an Apostle of your light. Thank you for being my guide upon this journey, and finding and bringing out the Child of Light that was inside of me, that the gruff fisherman that was on the outside never would have recognized if it were not for you.
72 I am overwhelmed and humbled to the depths of my soul.” Then he could speak no more through his tears and he sat down upon a rock and smiled at those around him, laughing a little at his own emotions.
73 Yeshua came over to Cephas and offering him his hand, pulled him up and embraced him, saying, “You are welcome good brother. You are welcome. And I have always been honored to call you a friend and a brother, and I always will be.

The Workings of a Circle of Light
74 But this was not what you actually stood up to say was it?”
75 Cephas shook his head and answered, “No, I had a question about that which you had just taught us, but the spirit of my soul came over me and the words I spoke came out unbidden from the depths of my heart.”
76 Then Cephas put a hand on each of Yeshua’s shoulders and laughed lightly as he looked at him, saying, “You see, even those words I just said- very flowery they were; nothing at all like how a normal man should speak, and certainly not how I used to speak before I was changed by you.”
77 Yeshua laughed back good-naturedly, but then said with calm serenity, “It was not me Cephas, save perhaps as a catalyst. You simply heard and heeded the call of the greater Cephas beckoning you to become the fullness of the man you can be, even as all men and women are called by the inner voice of their soul to become more than they are; not in the ways of the world, but in the ways of the Celestine Light.”
78 Cephas nodded his head in agreement and Yeshua asked him to present the question he had begun to ask, and Cephas did, saying, “You spoke of the circle of light necessary to effect a healing, but how is the circle completed when we call upon the Celestine Light to affect things that are not people, such as moving a mountain?”
79 “All things that exist,” began Yeshua, “are creations of the Elohim.
80 Unto man, and others like unto man in intelligence and experience, has been given the opportunity to freely make choices of light or darkness in every aspect of their lives, beginning with their thoughts.
81 This that they might begin to walk the path that leads to the realm of the Elohim, which realm is far greater than the Celestine realm of which you have learned so much and aspire even now to gain.
82 Understand that even that may be for some, just a way point in their eternal progression.
83 For the Celestine realm, though it is grander than your imagination can conceive, is merely a small part of the greater, more glorious realm of the Elohim that awaits the most faithful.
84 For where you now are, how you now are, even the Father and Mother once were, and where they now are, how they now are, you may someday become as you continue through this life and time untold that follows, to be one with the Celestine Light.
85 When you are one with the light, you are no longer of this world, though your feet may still trod upon it.
86 That is why you feel somewhat disconnected from the world already Cephas, even the land and the people you have known all of your life, as I’m sure all of your brethren do as well.” Hearing his words, all of the other Apostles nodded in agreement.
87 “Then Yeshua added a caution, saying, “But while you still live upon this world, never become so much in the next that you forget that it has been given to you to be the faithful stewards of the world upon which you live, to guard it and protect it, and all of the creatures and life therein that are in need of your guardianship and protection.
88 For all of these, all life upon the Earth other than man, are pure in the Celestine Light of their creation. They are innocent of sin, save those that have been corrupted by man; but even then the sin is upon the corrupters not upon the corrupted.
89 Because the land and the sea and the sky and all creatures therein are innocent and pure in the light, when you call upon the Celestine Light to affect them, the circle is immediately completed as the light runs through them, changes them as you have commanded, and returns to you.
90 The light is of Elohim and so are all things. And save for man who has been given knowledge of good and evil, the Celestine Light sent out shall always return to the sender, for therein lies its resonance and abode.”

Why We Have Commandments
91 Then Yeshua posed a question to the Apostles asking, “Why do you think your place in the next life depends so much upon your faithfulness in this life to the principles and precepts I have taught?
92 Why did the Elohim bother to give man the Twelve Commandments of Sinai or any of the higher precepts? Man is surely of sound enough mind and reason to have thought of these principles himself as a way to live in harmony with his fellow man and progress in his life.
93 So why did the Elohim command some things and why have many others been taught to you by me with precept and example many times, in multiple ways, but not by commandment?”
94 Yohhanan lifted his hand signaling he wished to answer the question and Yeshua nodded affirmatively for him to proceed. And Yohhanan answered saying, “When we hear words of wisdom, such as those from the Greek philosophers, we ponder upon them and reason them out in our mind. We only adopt them in our lives if they seem practical and do not require too much effort for the promised reward.
95 But when we hear or see the same principle given by the Father and Mother, or shown or taught to us by you, there is something more that occurs after the pondering and reasoning.
96 With the Greek philosophers, we may understand the truth of a teaching and the wisdom of adopting it in our lives. But as it is just the teaching of a man we are likely only inclined to act upon it if it does not require too much effort and the reward is quick to come.
97 Then something similar is taught to us by the Elohim in the words of the old prophets, or in the things we see you do or hear you teach. Though there is always a promise of benefit in this life for living the teachings, the greater reward is saved for the eternal life to come, in a world we cannot see, and with faith alone must accept to be real and waiting for the valiant.
98 This then is why I think the Elohim have given us the Twelve Commandments and taught us to follow other higher laws of righteousness- that we will do so in faith, with faith abiding and growing inside us.
99 Obeying the commandments and following the precepts make us better people- better husbands and fathers and sons. But so would following the teachings of the philosophers.
100 But building faith is something far greater, for you have taught us that faith is a power, like a fire; and by it all things were created; and by it come all miracles. By it we have command of the Celestine Light.
101 By following the good words of wise men we can become good men ourselves, but by living in fullness the commandments and teachings of the Elohim can we become men of faith, in whom the Elohim can trust, and in whom the power of the Celestine Light can come and abide, in this life and the next.”
102 As to why some are commandments and others only admonitions- surely all are of equal worth in our lives, but the handful of commandments have weight beyond their numbers when we are weighed in the balance at the Judgment of Resonance as all the admonitions are truly encompassed within the commandments.”
103 As Yohhanan finished speaking, Yeshua walked over to him, placing a hand on either side of his head, he kissed him lightly on the top of his head, saying, “Truly Yohhanan, the Holy Spirit has come upon you. You are ready now to bring the Celestine Light to the world, for in you it abides and from you it comes forth.”
Concerning Paul
104 Yeshua then addressed something completely different, saying, “As I have spoken about before to you, in the days soon to come, a religion shall build up upon the Earth from fragments of my teachings and it shall cover the world in generations to come.
105 But it will to the greatest extent be based upon the teachings of a Benjamite named Saul. A learned man who shall at first persecute the Children of Light and anyone who follows even a part of my teachings.
106 Then shall come his day of remorse and repentance and thereafter he shall be known as Paul, and he shall dedicate his life to building a church throughout the lands of the Romans and Greeks based upon the part of my teachings that appeal to him.
107 He will convert many Gentiles to his church after the name the Greeks call me- Iesous. And he shall call himself my Apostle.
108 But Paul will not be an Apostle such as you are; one who has traveled with me day to day and heard and seen the wonders of heaven.
109 Nor will he be called by me and set apart and ordained to be my Apostle on Earth, to speak and act in my name, or given the great secrets of the Celestine Light, which have been given to you.
110 Nor shall you give these things to Paul, or ordain him to be an Apostle, or teach him the ways of the Adepts, for he will continually be opposed to the fullness of the Celestine Light and therefore never worthy to receive its greatest secrets and powers.
111 Some of his teachings will be from the teachings of old that are in opposition to that which I have taught and you will have cause to be angry with him and to cast him out from among you.
112 But this I would ask my brethren. Love him, even as I have loved you. Teach him what he is ready to learn and be not angry with him for that which he is not ready, for every person should be given the light only as they are capable of receiving it in good stewardship.
113 Though he will teach some things that are false and omit others that are true and important, the portion of my light that he shall bring upon the world will still be a great in many ways; one that shall uplift those that follow it and bring them closer to Elohim in a greater measure than they had been before the teachings of Paul came to them.
114 And that which he shall teach, in my Greek name, shall spread across all of the world and touch the lives of many people, causing many to forsake their sins of the past and live their lives closer to the Celestine Light of Elohim.
115 While that which you teach shall only be for the elect, and they shall not long remain upon the Earth, save those who shall remain behind as Earth Stewards.
116 Verily, the people of the world are not yet ready for the immensity of the Celestine Light you shall bring, and they will be blinded by its brightness until the generation of promise comes forth.”
117 “What shall we do with this Paul when he comes?” asked Cephas. “Shall we invite him into our communities? And how shall we teach him all that he should know if he is going to preach even a small part of the Celestine Light you have given us, and yet will be opposed to some of the foundations of our understanding?”
118 Yeshua smiled and answered, saying, “You will be like two hawks fighting whenever in each others presence, unless you both remember to love one another even as I have loved you.
119 Do not condemn him for his weaknesses or the fallacy of his doctrines. Do not find reasons to be angry with him.
120 Correct him as you can with gentleness; help him see as much of the Celestine Light as he can receive by your teachings and the examples of your lives.
121 See the good in him; see the light; see his devotion to service and his eloquent uplifting of his fellow men.
122 When he has received all the Celestine Light from you that he will accept, send him to the Gentiles where he will find fertile ground.
123 Then when you see the children of Paul in churches springing up across the land wearing my Greek massacre of a name, be not offended by them, for they are humble seekers of the light, even as you are.
124 In truth, Paul will be doing you a favor by bringing his followers closer to the Celestine Light than they previously were and more receptive to the resonance of the greater light that you can bring to those who are ready to receive it.
125 Because of the light Paul first brings, some who become children of Paul, shall later become Children of the true Celestine Light and receive it in fullness and be numbered among you.”

Finding the Children of Light
126 Another day Yeshua spoke to Miriam, Salome and the Apostles further, saying, “You will face many adversities in the days to come. So great will some be that you will begin to wonder if I have thrown you as lambs to the lions.
127 In those times, remember the essence of your calling. Do not put more upon yourself than needs be.
128 All that is asked of you concerning the lives of men and women of the world can be said by this: help them to remember who they are and help them understand how to live in harmony with the Celestine Light of Elohim that they might inherit the fullness of their birthright from their Father and Mother in heaven, and a joy inside that surpasses all the world has to offer.
129 Remember that every person ever born upon the Earth was born in innocence. They came from the Celestine Light and at the moment of their birth, all are pure Children of Light.
130 But as they gain years, they are molded by the light or darkness that surrounds them. Most that are surrounded by good parents, friends and teachers who walk in the light become as the light that surrounds them.
131 But those that have darkness around them most often become as the darkness. They are molded by the wicked examples they see and hear as they grow into men and women.
132 The Celestine Light they had at birth grows dim, sometimes until it can no longer be perceived.
133 But know this: the Celestine Light of Elohim still remains at the core of all but the most wicked. They are not unredeemable; merely lost. To show them by precept and example the way back to the light, is a stewardship I have given unto you.
134 Even when the Celestine Light is but a faint glimmer within them, it still calls them to be greater than they are; to do good and live with virtue and honor, even when their life may be just the opposite of that ideal.
135 And always will they know in their heart that they are fighting against themselves when they do evil.
136 It is unto the lost souls that I send you as a sacred stewardship that they may be lost no more.
137 Show them by the example of your life how to live in the Celestine Light, and the benefits of health, happiness and love that abide with you everyday because of the light that you embrace.
138 Let them know that the joy of the light is not just for you; but that they too were born Children of Light and can find again that happiness that was lost.
139 Teach them with your words that they can know the paths they must walk to find the Celestine Light again in their lives.
140 When they are ready to be born again, to cast off their old dry skin and take upon them the beauty of the light, then let them repent and be baptized and show their commitment to living the Celestine Light they love.
141 Unto the baptized Children of Light, you are charged to teach the mysteries and the secrets of power I have given to you, as they are prepared and capable of holding them and fulfilling them in stewardship.
142 This then is the essence of your stewardship among the Children of Men in this life and the next, and all other things that I have asked you to do are a part of this.”
143 Many more things Yeshua spoke to them on that day, but these are things that cannot be written but only spoken among the Children of Light.

Light and Darkness
144 On another day Yeshua elaborated upon good and evil and the light and the darkness that he often referred to, saying, “Because the Children of Light within the communities live in the fullness of the Celestine Light, they will make enemies of both those that live in darkness and even among many of those who live in a part of the light.
145 Those that live in the darkness will hate you because you oppose them.
146 Those that live in a partial light will resent you and despise you because you remind them that they are slaves to their weaknesses, instead of masters over them.
147 Though you will live apart from them, you will still encounter them, and in their own guilt they will desire to control you, and dictate the things in your private and community lives that you can and cannot do.
148 They shall try to force you by law or violence to be like them or be no more, that none would remain whose lives would remind them of the error of their own.
149 They will desire to absorb you into a community of common darkness, where all walk the same wrong path; that they may no longer remember or consider that there was any other choice.
150 With no other choice they can justify themselves as being just like everyone else. And if that is how everyone is, how could it be wrong?
151 Take heed that you are not caught unaware. At times the attacks upon your way of life may be strong and blatant.
152 But at other times they will be subtle and insidious, so slowly eating away at your light that you do not even realize it is diminishing, until you find yourself in a place of great darkness without understanding how you arrived there.
153 But light has nothing to fear from darkness. It is only darkness that needs fear the light.
154 In a battle of good and evil, light will win simply by increasing the light.
155 Darkness is nothing of itself. It has no power; it has no form or substance. Darkness is merely the dimness of light, or the void left when light is no longer present.
156 You can bring a light into a dark room, but you can only make a room dark by taking away the light.
157 Darkness can only exist in the absence of light. It can only increase if light diminishes; it can only spread forth across the land if the light capitulates, and only win if the light abdicates.
158 But light increases with faith and desire and holding fast to that which you know to be true, and magnifies when it abides in Communities of Light.
159 No darkness, no matter how gloomy or pervasive, can withstand the Celestine Light intent upon overcoming it.
160 Therefore, remember these things, and never fear the darkness or the evil intentions of men upon you, for you are the light, and the light shall always have the power to overcome the darkness.”
