Victory against Nestle: Take Action Against Tiger Brands/Purity

Vatic Note:  My Gosh, they are doing this to our babies..... BOYCOTT TIGER BRANDS, AND PURITY.... AS JOHN LENNON SAYS,  "POWER TO THE PEOPLE" AND WE VOTE WITH OUR BABY FOOD MONEY.  Make them go out of business.  Pass this around.  I am SICK AND TIRED of these fascists who think they can railroad us into doing their bidding and becoming their slaves, and they think they can just kill us off whenever they feel like,  ..... well, we will soon see who can do what.

We are almost ready.  The only world war we should fight is against these fascists.    We will create our own companies and only use those locally and nationally NonGMO products with decent paid, American workers, to meet our needs. 

Withdraw from them in the market place and that hurts worse than anything because that is all they care about, profits. If these companies are using GMO products to poison us, and they know what they are doing, then they are part of the cabal and are fair game.  Go after them big time.  Send this viral to everyone you know so that those two names are poison to anyone going shopping.

Sign petition to get Tiger Brands to stop using GM maize and soy in its baby food products.

NOTE: See also the ACB's press release here:
http://www.acbio.org.za/index.php/media/64-media-releases/427
---
Nestle is on record as saying that "it took consumer preferences into consideration and therefore all its infant cereals in South Africa used non-GM maize".

This can only be a result of the action that so many of you took last year after we released the results showing that Nestle's Cerelac Honey contained 77.65% GM Maize. This is a victory indeed!




On the other hand, Tiger Brands, which makes Purity, (tests conducted last week revealed that Purity's Cream of Maize tested positive as containing 56.25% GM maize; and Purity's Purity Baby First tested positive as containing 71.47% GM maize) said Purity baby foods were safe and presented no health risks! Tiger Brands had undertaken to label all products which contained more than 5 percent GM from December this year.

TIME TO TAKE ACTION AGAINST TIGER BRANDS/PURITY
We really need to put pressure on Tiger Brands to change it's GM policy. If you haven't signed the petition to get Tiger Brands to stop using any GM Maize or GM Soya in it's baby food products then please do so now. Please encourage others to do so as well.

The link to the petition is http://www.acbio.org.za/activist/index.php?m=u&f=dsp&petitionID=%20%202

BREAKING: U.S. Federal Judge Declares Executive Orders Are Not A Presidential Power & Obama’s Amnesty Actions Unconstitutional.

Vatic Note:  Now the question is "Will this judge survive his ruling?"  Remember the slaughter in AZ when that US house of rep member was supposedly shot in the head?  Well, the target was the judge that ruled against the cabal.  He was the only one that died, everyone else lived miraculously. 

He had ruled against the cabal with respect to their money laundering drug running operation.  The next thing we know he was shot in false flag bogus operation, and he was the target, the US rep was the khazar distraction.  Yes, she was one of the khazar cabal sitting in the house, betraying her country.

U.S. Federal Judge Arthur J. Schwab of the Western District of Pennsylvania said the executive branch has the ability to exercise discretion on how to enforce the law, but President Obama’s action breaches that.
Judge Schwab said “the President is writing laws, a power reserved for Congress.” Judge Schwab, who was appointed by President Bush and has served on the bench since 2002, said in his ruling Tuesday
“President Obama’s unilateral legislative action violates the separation of powers provided for in the United States Constitution as well as the Take Care Clause and therefore is unconstitutional.

This memo came as part of a deportation case, and does not in any way invalidate the orders issued last month. The Washington Post has posted Judge Schwab’s full opinion here.

The Washington Times notes Obama’s executive actions would allow illegal immigrants to apply for “deferred action.” This deferred action assures a person who is here illegally that they will not be deported, and could apply for a work permit.

Shortly after the announcement of the “deferred action” plan by President Obama, Texas Governor-elect Greg Abbott, who is still Attorney General of The Lone Star State until he is sworn in next month, said he would be filing a lawsuit against the Obama administration.

Twenty-four states have filed suit against the Obama administration over the matter as of last week.

Secret Chemtrail Pilot Speaks, on Dec 8, 2014

Vatic Note: Well, I put this up because it was extremely interesting,  IF TRUE.  I say that because this is one of those,  3rd hand reports from an unknown pilot that flies chemtrails, but it does sound credible, since we are seeing them disappear now as we speak, instead of spreading out.   However, the evil ones always include truth in with disinfo in order to give it credibility.  Is this another "FEAR PORN" job? Or is this truth?  

The only thing that bothers me about this report is the fact that its a USAF Pilot and that is completely out of line with previous disclosures where the pilots were private working for "private contractors" which makes more sense to me.  If my concerns prove viable, then the obvious question is "Why are the PTB making this disclosure now?  What is it that they want us to do, that serves them?"

Its now going to be important to find natural ways to rid the body of heavy metals and safe ways to purge them from your children and grand parents. For anyones information,  there is a private airport in Oklahoma that houses Evergreen Airways, a CIA owned airlines that does contract to do this dumping.   Just in case some of you are interested, just look for "EVERGREEN AIRWAYS" and their private airports.

That does not mean that the government has not involved Air Force Pilots into this plot to take over the planet and do a soft kill to depopulate.  We have discussed this before after publishing a blog on the illum families sending their kids to various illum schools with secret societies, where they could be mentored, trained and monitored, and then using them in various fields of endeavor to contribute to the successful completion of the khazar banker/illum agenda, this would include such fields as military,  science and politics.  

This could be the case with turning this over to the military to do rather than contracting it out.  One reason I could see them doing that is THEY HATE SPENDING THEIR OWN MONEY, and they would not be able to justify such expenditure by the military without giving their hand away.   It would fit with their double slap in our faces, to use our money to kill us off while also making us pay for it, now how perverted and insane is that?

This is a message I received, from a credible source. This message is (allegedly) from a USAF pilot, who flies Aerosol Tankers, as part of the secret Indigo Skyfold (geoengineered aerosol "chemtrail") program.

Please save this text, and forward the video! (The text was too long for Youtube to put in the description, so I will put the entire message in the comments section.)


https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=lZaD-H_j3pU

I've known the source for six months, and I have POST confirmation of most of the things he's told me, IN ADVANCE.

Also, IF THIS WAS DISINFO, the last message from the pilot would be "after Jan 20, they are shutting down the program".

INSTEAD, he says the opposite: "a very new "extremely toxic" chemtrail mix, is going to be sprayed. Using new technology, that makes these special chemtrails, completely invisible."   (VN: they are already doing this, as we can see.  The purpose, in case no one has noticed, is to cool down the atmosphere.  Here it is, the early part of January and the temps today were 48 degrees, which is hot for us for this time of year.  We are in the Colorado mountains at 7300 feet, so the twin star is here. I can't imagine how hot it would be if we did not have that coolant laid down.  The powers that be, must not be ready for underground insertion or they would not be keeping it all cool.)

That is not how disinfo works. The last communication was the opportunity to calm the herd, instead, it is a call to action.

If you have a geiger counter, with an alpha/beta probe, please test the aerosol fallout, now, and after January 20, 2015. The best way to test the aerosols, is to wipe your car hood, and windshield, with a clean paper towel, after a dry period of heavy spraying. Then, test the towel for alpha and beta radiation. This is especially important in California, which has no natural radon sources upwind.

BTW, the building at 7:30 is the International Criminal Court, at The Hague, Netherlands. This is where the criminals behind these programs need to be taken, to be put on trial, while the world watches.

P.S. if anyone can do a better job of narration, please upload your own video! Don't let this disappear from the internet!

The first comment has the complete pilot text, so please copy it, and spread the word.

Thanks!

TEXT OF PILOT MESSAGE:  December 8, 2014
My cousin who was fired by our dictator, just before making "rank withheld", sent me information given to him by a friend, who is still an Air Force pilot. This pilot is saying that he flies CHEMTRAIL flights!

This pilot told my cousin that this global engineering effort, goes by the name of "Indigo Skyfold". At least within the circle of pilots and aviation crews, that he works with. They are told to fly specific routes, and satellite com links control the aerosol dispersal patterns. He says that they only make course corrections, from time to time, and perform landings and take-offs.

Pilot, navigation and maintenance crews are rotated constantly, and only spend about 18 months at one given base. He states, that is to keep pilots and their families from making too many friends, and ending up with "Loose Lips". Plus, they also rotate between day and night flights. One base for daytime flights, and one for night. Each base covers a 250 mile zone, and each fleet (squadron) of planes can cover Three States, or an even larger swath of ocean.

They are told to simply do their job and "Shut the F*ck Up!"
Their superiors will only tell them. "It's a matter of National Security"
and  "Without these flights, our enemy's newest technological weapons of war, could easily penetrate America's air space, at will. We are dedicated and committed to keeping our allies safe, from the same skyward threats. So we extend the arm of protection, to those countries who support our efforts. Hostile nations are also building Atmospheric Shields, while in the same discourse. Trying to explore weaknesses in our ever developing, air and space-based technologies."

Sounds more like a PR statement to me.
I think this pilot, either believes what he is told. Or, he is simply trying to sugar coat their Genocide Project.

December 08, 2014
My firewall detected multiple intrusion attempts, when I googled the Indigo code as well. Zero info to be found on the internet, for this operation. That is unique.

I received a rather (lengthy) reply, from the chemtrail pilot. Here is that text, from his (or her) email.

First of all, I would like to say;
I do not agree with my mission assignments. But, what soldier ever truly does?
Several of us have considered bucking the ranks, and going AWOL from time to time.

We are kept in the dark, when it comes to getting honest answers about what we are really spraying.

Should they discover that we, or our families, are actively inquiring about your so called "chemtrails" term. Then, automatic and swift disciplinary actions will be taken. HAARP and Radar, are two other non-allowed research subjects.
Unless our children are learning about these in (base) schools. We cannot educate ourselves, or our children, through any public tutoring system.

I would not intentionally spray my children or family with toxic aerosols. But, you must know. 80% or better, do not have any family, or children. Indigo pilots are chosen from the top ranks, within the Air Force, Navy and Coast Guard. Most of the pilots are "Hardened to Humanity", and could care less about killing off, unwanted or "Leaching" aspects of America, and the world. I swear to you. The majority of the pilots are like Machines. I call them (Tanker Terminators).

I should not be telling you this. But nearly one-third of all flights, are being orchestrated from small un-named islands. Where newly constructed bases, are being built, at a rate of eight per year. On these extremely remote islands, there are HAARP arrays of every possible design. With many arrays surrounding these islands, within the depths of the ocean itself.

The Navy has developed sophisticated underwater construction technology. That allows fully autonomous robot submersibles, to travel great distances, and even manufacture parts for these massive under water arrays, as they progress across the open sea floor. Every time that you see or hear about military excercises at sea. They are basically there to give support and resupply, their army of underwater robotic minions. There is possibly, one aquatic robot per plane, and will soon be double that.

You will never be able to google Earth search any of this. Other than an occasional error, in blurring some island bases, or smudging images of underwater arrays. It is impossible to locate all these artifacts. They even paint fake clouds, over some of our island installations, to keep prying eyes away. I have been shown some of these images, by civilian friends. That is the reason I know this.

I completely understand your concern for human safety.
But, here is the Kicker.

We are shown videos in our training, of catastrophic destruction to our homeland, by very sophisticated weapons.

Then told, that these will be the consequences, if we don't fly. Our efforts in building a defensive atmospheric weapons shield, are the only missions of it's kind in the world. We are paid more than any other pilot, for our service. Other than Air Force One pilots. Who make as much or more, and are also kept in a dark secret world, for their protection.

They tell us that secrecy is our protection, and not to listen to any public rehtoric.

We all know about cyber program "flashpoint", or FP-03 as it is known within the veteran community. This program is a Self Destruct sequence, that can be remotely activated, from any ground, water, underwater based, or other air mobile unit. The signal is encrypted through "Three" satellites, and cannot be jammed or blocked.

At any given moment, you could only have 15 seconds, to make peace with your God.

They tell us that FP exists, to keep planes from accidentally going down in heavily populated areas. They can remotely detonate our planes, over safe zones. But in the back of our minds. We are pretty sure, this is a fail-safe program to keep pilots from turning over assets, to any public, private or civilian authorities.

Have you ever seen any member of the crew, survive the few crashes that have occurred? Every plane that has gone down, was completely destroyed. For a good reason, I'm sure.

We risk our lives, in more ways than one, every single time that we fly. Especially night flights. They are ordering us to fly at lower and lower altitudes. We feel like massive "dark force Empire" crop dusters, and know that one night. Bubba, or Billy Joe will fire their long rifles at us. When we spray their moonshine making operation, or pass over an illegal mary jane crop.

I know for a fact that some planes have been shot at, and subsequently brought down. By mostly Russian, Chinese and Korean weaponry. But, the media will never cover these events. As they are not allowed to report on our flights either. That must be true, for I have yet to see a detailed or in-depth report of our missions. On any public venue. Other than conspiracy shows and anti-government websites.

I risk everything for disclosing so much information, and you will find very few like me. Even my own flight crew, would have me arrested and court martialed, if they knew of this dialogue. That is why I cannot email you directly.
But, from what your cousin tells me. You are also risking everything, just to get this information out to your colleagues.

I salute you sir, for standing up to the establishment, and big brother.

I would love to go home tomorrow, and not rack up one more single minute of flight time. Except for a sweet little Piper Cub, or Rat Tail Barn Racer!
I miss those beautiful Blue skies, from my youth, and I am ashamed for hazing over that dream.

Maybe, more of my fellow pilots will read or hear about this, and decide to come forward as well.

I only know a small fraction of the larger picture, and they compartmentalize everything.

Should I become aware of any (new) significant developments. I will email your cousin.

He senses a wavering within the ranks, and feels that a kind of (Mutiny) is being boiled to the surface, of this whole GeoEngineering..
Global White Washing. "if you catch my drift?"

My cousin still has friends in high places too. So, he is helping to protect him.

Last word from "pilot", was:

      "All pilots on leave, are required to report to their CO by Dec.15. For special training operations, to qualify for Indigo Phase II flights. Expected to be initiated by Jan. 21."
Those were his words. Not the actual Air Force message. He wanted me to stress that.

He believes that the focus of their flights will be moved to areas east of California and Texas. In order to progress the drought, further into the heartland.

Plus, he feels that a very new "extremely toxic" chemtrail mix, is going to be sprayed. Using new technology, that makes these special chemtrails, completely invisible.

Atmospheric Shield of Protection.
he doesn't believe that either.

Illuminati War on Gender- Obama Forces Women into Combat Roles -

Vatic Note:   If your agenda is "Depopulation", you attack it from two sides, the first is to kill off as many as you can, especially men, since they are the seeders of the future generations, but also, controlling in some way, reproductive activities, either in seeding or in results of impregnation.  Bill Gates has been instrumental in that department with his sterilizing vaccine program.

The powers that be also attacked the issue from a woman's perspective, since you only need one man and millions of women to reseed the population, So they began by creating, funding and directing the "Womens liberation movement", while at the same time promoting sexual recreation and decreased the promotion of marriage family and commitment to one spouse.  Somehow, even with that pegnancies increased and babies were coming out like a broken dam.  So now what to do?

Aaah,  a woman dead or permanently injured can't carry a fetus to term and still have a viable baby, so PUT THEM IN HARMS WAY, to reduce the female population and their health, by inducting them into the military and give them combat roles to do.  That would solve several problems.  Women are the nurturers, due to their psychological make up for having babies.  So, train and make them into hardened criminal murderers as has already been done to our men,  and then put them in harms way.

That way you either have dead female soldiers or  hardened killers and both serves their agenda.  Clever. indeed, but definitely insane.  John Lennon was right, these satanic cabal members are truly, demonic and insane.  I served one term in the WACS and did not get trained on how to kill, rather on how to defend.

AT that time,  women were mostly drivers, nurses, medical field personnel and they had to learn to defend themselves doing those jobs, just in case, they got separated from their unit and found themselves in such a defensive position.  Obviously today its much different as we can see by this photograph.

I believe this began when they made women "combat pilots" and it worked and thus,  progressed from there. Also, in order for the USA to LOSE WW III, THEY MUST ATTACK OUR MILITARY READINESS AND AS YOU CAN SEE BELOW, FORCING WOMEN INTO COMBAT HAS THE AFFECT OF DECREASING OUR MILITARY READINESS. This gives the Russians and Chinese a massive advantage over our combat capability.  


Remember a couple of years ago we posted a blog showing that our military were training with Russian and Chinese troops to teach them our tactics and strategies?  I asked them, What the heck are they doing this for, since they are our new potential enemies?  No answer!!!!  Now we know why.  They want to insure our losses or they are doomed in their global agenda. 

Add to all of this, the fact that its the khazars directing this New World order, and they have the highest rates of homosexuality of any nation on the planet, then you can figure out why they want women in combat.  They hate us.  They are heterophobes. These are just side issues to the depopulation done indirectly, rather than simply going up and shooting us.

Illuminati War on Gender- Obama Forces Women into Combat Roles -
http://henrymakow.com/2015/01/Illuminati-War-on-Gender.html -
By Elaine Donnelly,  Washington Times
(abridged by henrymakow.com) -

women-combat.jpg
In response to the article, "Is Rape a Reaction to Women in Military?"

Jessica, a veteran, writes that women don't want combat roles. " I was forced into an all male infantry unit against my will. Recruiters lied to me and not just me. Read Elaine Donnelly's latest article. Over 92% of active duty women said they would refuse a combat assignment if offered." 


Elaine Donnelly says women simply are not up for combat. I say this is a form of heterophobia far more vicious than any homophobia I've seen.The denial of gender differences is occult, more evidence we are satanically possessed- in the talons of the Illuminati (Masonic) Jewish (VN: Khazar, phallic worshipping....) satanic cult.

Now that voters have disposed of the phony "war on women," can we talk about real women fighting future wars?

More than 92 percent of active-duty Army women said in a recent official survey that they do not want and would not take direct ground combat (infantry) assignments. Nevertheless, President Obama plans to order women into the combat arms by January 2016...

The Center for Military Readiness has independently obtained and analyzed major research findings so far, and published a 64-page interim report titled "Where's the Case for Co-Ed Combat?" Respect for military women who have served with courage "in harm's way" is greater than ever. However, nothing in research findings so far supports the theory that women should be considered interchangeable with men in direct ground combat.

Upper-body strength and endurance are not the only issues of concern, but both are essential for survival and mission accomplishment. In the most physically demanding environments imaginable, it matters that in timed proxy tests simulating ordnance-stowing with 95-pound artillery rounds, less than 1 percent of the men failed, compared with 28 percent of the women.

In another test with progressively heavier weights lifted over the head, 80 percent of men could lift 115 pounds, but less than 9 percent of the women could do the same.

In a timed tank-loading simulation with 55-pound weights lifted five times, less than 1 percent of the men failed, compared with 18.6 percent of the women. Researchers noted that failure rates would increase in a more confined space such as a tank.

Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel should know better than most how important individual strength and speed can be. In Vietnam, Mr. Hagel saved his own brother by pulling him unconscious from a burning armored personnel carrier just before it blew up. No one's brother or son should die because of unrealistic theories about the equality of the sexes.

Some women score well in controlled tests, but survival and mission accomplishment also involve endurance over time. This lesson is being learned in tests of female volunteers on the Marines' Infantry Officer Course at Quantico, Va.

Since fall 2012, 24 female officers have attempted the grueling infantry test. All deserve credit for trying, but only four survived the deliberately difficult first day. Of those, none endured through the entire 13-week course, which involves 20-mile marches and carrying loads of up to 120 pounds.

Some activists have criticized the infantry officer training, noting that more than 40 women have completed the less-demanding course for enlisted infantrymen. There are major differences, however, because infantry officers must be prepared to lead others into battle.

womencombat1.jpgIn 2013, the Marines tried to make three pull-ups mandatory for female basic trainees, but had to suspend the requirement when 55 percent could not meet it. Recent tests have found that on average, men could do almost 16 pull-ups -- more than four times as many as the women.

Extra training can strengthen women, but physiology makes men even stronger. Experts know that unchanging androgenic characteristics in men account for greater muscle power and aerobic capabilities that are essential for endurance in land combat operations.

LOWERING STANDARDS

"Gender-neutral standards" are supposed to screen out individuals who cannot perform heavy tasks. The expectation is not realistic, however, in view of relentless Pentagon-endorsed demands for "gender diversity metrics," another name for quotas. In January 2013, Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Martin Dempsey admitted that high standards beyond the abilities of women would be questioned.

Training programs deemed inconsistent with "gender diversity" goals eventually will be eliminated, modified or scored differently in the process of "validating" standards that are "equal" but lower than before. This is the only way to achieve what Gen. Dempsey has called a "critical mass" of women in the combat arms.

In theory, three percent of women might meet male minimum standards, but going from the top of their fields to lower status in land combat units would set them up for career disadvantages and disproportionate, debilitating injuries. None of this is necessary, since women always have been promoted at rates equal to or faster than men.

In 2015, gender-integrated Marine task forces will conduct simulated combat with "collective" efforts that are likely to obscure individual shortcomings. Academic consultants, like-minded think tanks and Defense Department contractors have been hired to "validate" predetermined goals, leaving major issues unaddressed from an independent perspective.

The Joint Chiefs of Staff have the option to ask for exceptions to the administration's mandate to integrate the combat arms. Sufficient research data justifying exceptions already exist, but members of Congress need to honor military women by conducting responsible oversight that takes this issue seriously. If officials intend to "go where the numbers take us," the way ahead should be clear.

First Comment by Bob:

I was at the personnel officer (S1) for an intelligence battalion stationed in Germany. We had lots of women in the unit. The battalion commander called me into his office and told me: We have to get all the women with children in the unit to put in writing what they will do with their children in time of war. Here is the list. Get them to put in writing who will take care of their children if this becomes a war zone.

I called them one by one into my office. Without exception they all said: "I am not legally obliged, as a woman, to stay in a combat zone. My first duty is to my child or children. I am serving primarily to help support them and myself. I intend to avail myself of my legal right to leave a war zone and take my child/children with me." Without exception. I went back to the commander and told him what they had all said. I added: That makes sense to me. I have no intention of attempting to get them to commit to anything other than this position. He just sat there and said nothing. The matter went no further. - See more at: http://henrymakow.com/#sthash.lmH5uD1C.dpuf

THIS WILL BLOW YOUR MIND! Anunnaki in the ANTARCTIC?

Vatic Note:  We did quite a few blogs on the Antarctic because of anomalies that appeared to raise questions as to "why" they existed.  One such anomaly was the fact that  30 countries had research facilities in that barren landscape and for what reason?   Then we found out and did a blog on the fact that US military has been down in that country since 1956.  Why?  Here, here, here and here are some of the links to give you a background on what we have found.

Yes, in part, we did it for the nuke advancements the Germans had made during the war and we wanted that as much as anything, so we brought them over here and the result was we had the first real Nuke bomb and used it on the Japanese people.  But was there another reason?  Aliens?  Well, read this and see what you think.

I Fought Foreclosure and Won!

Vatic Note: We try to throw in the occasional "good news" and this is one of them.   Having worked in the mortgage business for 30 years, I can vouch for his points below.  To emphasize how this system works, let me ask you a question?   If you want to extract someones earned wealth from him, how would you do it?   Would you just go up and ask him for it?  Of course, he would say "No".   So what would be the next step for getting his wealth from him?

Offer to sell him something someone else owns and take his money that way.  Or offer to lend him SOMEONE ELSES MONEY and call it your own.  Then charge interest compounded daily which is not simple interest, and then forclose on him if he doesn't pay.   So what about the person whose money you used to make the loan?  What does he, she, or it get out of the deal?   NOTHING.

That is basically how it works.  The bank making the loan has to have a reserve of deposits from its deposit base.  Its' ability to make loans is based on what are called "reserve requirements" to ensure the solvency of the bank to protect the depositors.  Once they make those requirements, then they are free to lend money to clients, charge and collect interest.   So where does the money come from to make those loans?

There have been several ways this can be done.  One, is to borrow this money from the Federal Reserve.  We have all heard the phrase " Federal Reserve bank lending rate" and that rate is for member banks to borrow.  Its how the Federal Reserve controls M3 money supply that will affect the supply of money in the market place, which then affects "inflation and deflation".  They simply print it rather than use their own to back the loans.  They print the money and lend it out to the other banks to lend to you and me for  our homes and businesses.

Those two factors are used to control the economy and are often and regularly manipulated by the Federal Reserve, which by the way, is owned in part by the Rothschild and their international bankers.   They own almost all central banks of most countries.

The other way is to print the money you need to lend out,  charge interest on it, even though you put nothing up,  just an accounting entry, and voila, the borrower owns a home and a mortgage with interest payments.  Those are the two way and neither of them are based on real assets lent.   fiat currency is what its called, backed by nothing of value, except the word of the nation sponsoring the entire fraud.  So this is a good win...... and sets precedence, so anyone can do the same thing and win. 

I Fought Foreclosure and Won!

BofA2.jpgWhen the Bank of America foreclosed on Denny,
he demanded the bank prove it didn't just create the mortgage money out of thin air. They couldn't and eventually agreed to take a loss. Here he describes his scorched earth campaign against the Bank of America.


"The ultimate ignorance is the rejection of something you know nothing about and refuse to investigate." - Dr. Wayne Dyer
 

 by Denny
(henrymakow.com)


"Stop renting....BUY a house!" That's what everyone says. So we did. In 2007 I bought a $115,000 house and we thought life was good. Three years after buying the house, I suffered some financial setbacks and could no longer afford the payments.

 I tried selling it but no one was interested. Then came the threatening letters from Bank of America. I, like most people in this situation simply freaked out, ignored the problem thinking sooner or later it will just go away.

But, it doesn't go away. And deep down, I knew it wouldn't. So I started contacting lawyers and getting bankruptcy consultations over the phone. If the bank was going to take my house and come after me for the deficiency, they weren't going to get one penny! I was now starting my slippery slide into the pit.

The Sheriff showed up one day with a thick packet of papers for me....my foreclosure notice! Nothing rattles you more than a Sheriff's deputy standing at your front door. That is when the real intimidation from the bank starts.

Which brings up another interesting question: 'In the case of serving foreclosure notices', who is the Sheriff actually working for?  That's right...The BANK! That's when you realize how insidious the banks really are and that you are looking into the eyes of an actual monster and they control the system from the top down.

And that's when the seriousness of my situation came to rest on my chest like a large boulder. My girlfriend and I had moved out of the house shortly after and for around six months, nothing happened. We had moved into an apartment and basically ignored the problem at hand. I did however pay a lawyer $150.00 to file a "Delay of Sale" for me, thinking this would give me six more months from this point in time.

In the very back of my thick packet of foreclosure papers was a flyer to get help if you found yourself in this situation. But, you had to live in the house to get their assistance. I called the 800 number and they sent me a packet of papers to fill out. 


They were a financial counselling company and basically I filled out a stack income to debt forms, sent them back and waited. In the meantime, to qualify for the loan assistance we moved back into the house. After a few tweaks of the documents they had a complete file on me and they forwarded it on to Iowa Mediation Services.

I was assigned a wonderful mediator. They negotiated with Bank of America on my behalf to try to get me a loan modification. Except for supplying some documentation (that the bank has no business having) they would do all of the work. In the meantime, my research into the banking fraud escalated and I continued down the rabbit hole!

About three weeks later, my mediator called me and said the bank wants two months bank statements, the last two years tax returns and your last two months pay stubs. Ok I said and emailed him the documents. (Stupid me......NO ONE has any business seeing these documents...think about it....really?)

However, supplying them the documents in question was part of their game. And if I wanted a loan modification, I had to play along. Meanwhile, Bank of America's first Law Firm filed a motion for summary judgment against me. I ignored them. 


After about eight months of these repeated documentation requests from the bank, being assigned numerous customer service reps (CSR's) and the frustration my mediator was having getting anywhere with these parasites, I was quickly learning just how their game was played, and how to play back.

After about 20 months of this delaying tactic, they finally offered me a $130.00 a month less house payment. (Loan modification) Really? For my financial situation, it would have to have been around $300.00 a month less or more to make any difference and keep me in my house.

Were they on drugs???? I called them up the next day and said I DO NOT ACCEPT your loan modification offer. She became bewildered. I think she stopped breathing, "What do you mean Mr. L? After all of this work??" I told her the modification was so small as to be irrelevant. She stated (LIED) that because my loan was a Freddy Mac loan and they were the investor, that they had very strict rules on loan mods and that Bank of America's hands were tied. (Another lie.) And shortly after that I got a new CSR.!

I GO ON THE ATTACK

It was now time for me to start making demands of Bank of America. So, using "legalese" the only language corporations understand I drafted up a letter to Bank of America sent three times 72 hours apart. that stated the following:

"Demand for Documentation"

Dear Bank of America,

Bank of America cannot show they suffered a loss because they can't provide evidence they put up any consideration. HERE IS WHAT YOU WOULD HAVE TO PRODUCE IN ORDER TO ESTABLISH THAT A LOAN WAS MADE AND THAT I MAY HAVE A DEBT:

1. Produce documentation of prior title, ownership and rights to the money you purportedly loaned me.

2. Produce documentation of the history and origin of funds that you purportedly had prior title, ownership and rights to that you purportedly loaned me (banking requires 3 generations at least if not all the way back to issuance/creation of the alleged funds...this is why banks issue a letter of origin/history of funds)

3. Produce documentation of the actual transaction and transfer of said funds (prior title, ownership, and rights) from loaner to borrower (invoicing/receipts) there is a difference between a "loan" and "debt," conceptually, legally and factually.

Look up the definitions of loan and debt, difference between statement and invoice...only an invoice has to be paid...however you would first have to show that you made me a loan...if no loan, each invoice is fraud - mail fraud to be precise.

Sincerely, D

They ignored my three demands of documentation, and responded that I seemed to be questioning the validity of the "note." Well Duh? That is EXACTLY what I was doing. So what did they do? They sent their second Law Firm after me. 


After what I call a soft opening, their lawyers sent me a statement of account (with their fees included) and stated I had thirty days to rebut their presumptions. And I did! I sent them the same letter I sent earlier.

Bank of America and the Law Firm wrote back stating that I seemed to be questioning the validity of the note. Duh again! I sent the same letter (above) a second time and they sent me a copy of my Promissory Note. 


Funny thing was, I already had one. They had NO intention of honoring my requests for documentation because they couldn't. They didn't have what I was asking for because it DOESN'T exist! There is NO loan!

SHORT SALE

After continually winning the battles but seeming to lose the fight I received a card in the mail from "A.H.S." It stated:

STOP FORECLOSURE, CALL US TODAY!

I almost threw it out but for some reason stuck it in a drawer and forgot about it for a few days. Let's talk about a short sale. The bank sells your house for less then it's allegedly worth and according to documents I received from Bank of America, "In SOME cases, does not come after you for the difference."

Some cases? So that would imply that in MOST cases, they DO come after you for the difference, it's called a deficiency! I already knew about this option along with a "Deed In Lieu" in which you (according to the bank) shake hands with them, and simply sign the house (that they have NO rights to) back over to them. Supposedly a simple agreement.

Lesson one: Don't EVER believe ANYTHING a bank tells you and lesson two: Don't EVER shake hands with a bankster!!!! A.H.S. worked with Bank of America for almost a year to buy the house in a "Short Sale." The more the bank delayed, the longer I lived there for free. Finally, after 12 months of the bank delaying and playing games, they accepted the short sale offer.

They claim that they took a loss of $50,000.00 in the form of missed mortgage payments and another alleged loss of $35,000.00 in the sale of the house. Not too bad for my first fight with the BIG BANK! In reality, they lost nothing, and received three years of house payments plus interest on a loan they never made. 


That, folks is the banking reality you and I live in. The central banks own everything from your property, your children (via their birth certificate) and our corporate government. And until the day you all wake up, and demand to take your country back from the central bankers, that's the way it will be.

According to the Fed's own laws,

Banks are not permitted to loan you THEIR money, THEIR depositor's money or THEIR credit by law!

See "Generally Accepted Accounting Principles" (GAAP)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generally_Accepted_Accounting_Principles_(United_States)
And they are not allowed to loan you their credit:

A national bank has no power to lend its credit to any person or corporation . . . Bowen v. Needles Nat. Bank, 94 F 925 36 CCA 553, certiorari denied in 20 S.Ct 1024, 176 US 682, 44 LED 637.

Countrywide Home Loans, Inc. v Taylor - Mayer, J., Supreme Court, Suffolk County / 9/07

"A bank may not lend its credit to another even though such a transaction turns out to have been of benefit to the bank, and in support of this a list of cases might be cited, which-would look like a catalog of ships." [Emphasis added] Norton Grocery Co. v. Peoples Nat. Bank, 144 SE 505. 151 Va 195.

So what did the bank loan you for your house? Nothing plus interest! Time to wake up!

IDF Suicide Cases Double in 2014

Vatic Note:   While this is bad, it does not compare to the suicides being done in the US Army.  Much of it from guilt for murdering civilians, but some are not suicides, as that football player proves.  I forgot his name.  But his parents believe it was not the friendly fire that the officials said it was, rather it was because of his politics.

Unfortunately, when I was writing and sending packages to soldiers in Iraq,  I got a different story.  Many complained about the tactics they were told to use against the civilian population and many were killed that were no threat to our soldiers, and were unarmed. 

Its a war zone and you expect some of that to happen, but when you are instructed to kill pregnant women and children,  it plays havoc with your moral core and thus many were psychologically damaged.

Further, many soldiers were satanized while serving in the field under fire, and that required satanic ritual murder or paedophilia of children.  That, alone, could have caused the suicides to take place.  When you have a moral core,  you also have a conscience and that can drive one to suicide. 

We are not raised or normally trained to be that vicious, evil and debasing, so it would have an impact on our mental health.  If we were void of all those morals and conscience, then it would have been different.

Finally, I would love to know how many "oathkeepers"  were "suicided"?  Does anyone have any numbers on those men and women?  The IDF guys are raised in hate and violence, so the numbers are much smaller, not only due to the size of their military, but also to the indoctination they get within their society overall. 

They can handle what they have done, since their Talmud demeans the value of those they harm, who are not zionists.  Read and see what you think. 

IDF Suicide Cases Double in 2014

Report finds 15 soldiers committed suicide, including two lone soldiers in combat units; IDF ends 2014 with 105 fallen, with 67 lost during Operation Protective Edge.

ynet

An end-of-year report revealed that 15 IDF soldiers committed suicide in the past year, as opposed to seven in 2013, including two ‘lone soldiers’ in combat units. A senior Personnel Directorate official said “it is important to remember that until five years ago the average number of suicides in the army stood at around 30.”

The senior official explained that, in the cases of the two lone soldiers, “we did not understand the gaps in treating them before their suicide, but this definitely demands of us to continue learning about and treating the lone soldiers.”

The military source said a civilian advisory committee will convene hearings with senior Personnel Directorate officials to “learn and identify the trends that will aid us in addressing the phenomenon.”

The IDF official noted the military thoroughly investigates suicide cases. “We examine each case individually with an investigatory committee chaired by a colonel, along with a military police investigation and testing by the Medical Corps’ Mental Health Division.”

He stressed that “in the past we did not understand the connection between operational incidents and suicide, but we did know to provide individual treatment in the combat brigades, including handing out questionnaires to soldiers to see if identify any distress among their friends.”

The end-of-year report concluded that 105 soldiers died in 2014, including 70 in active duty – 67 in Operation Protective Edge and three in a Gaza border crossfire incident, a car accident in the West Bank, and the terror stabbing in Tel Aviv.

An additional 13 died in car accidents off-duty and 15 committed suicide.

Of the armed forces’ gravely wounded, 115 soldiers are still hospitalized in severe condition from a number of events, though most occurred during Operation Protective Edge.

The report also showed that seven soldiers died in the past year from diseases – a figure similar to that of the three prior years.

Hasbro Under Fire for Penis-Shaped Play-Doh Toy

Vatic Note:   Why is this a surprise for anyone, given the perversions we are seeing throughout our global society, especially in the practicing satanists and black occult groups.  Look how many corporations are involved in the occult.  We did a blog on their symbols, almost to a 100% of them had occult symbols.

We even showed the occult symbols used for the various NASA shuttles, and prince Williams uniform which has a patch of Baphomet on it.  Satanism and paganism are running rapid now in just about every country that these khazar bankers have invaded. 

Once again, they are prepping our children for their intended sexual abuse and we are crazy if we allow this to continue.  We did not raise a ruckus when TSA started foundling our children who are anything but terrorists.   We did start to make a ruckus over this below, and it worked.   The company went ahead and made changes to make it look completely different.

I would love to see who is on the board of directors for this company, and I would bet its khazars who are the pagans that worship the Phallic Symbol.  Is it any wonder that Israel has legal prostitution and the highest gay population in the world?  We even did a blog on how they were considering returning to that religion.   Read this and see what you think.  Just watch out for your children.  Please. 

Hasbro Under Fire for Penis-Shaped Play-Doh Toy
http://www.breitbart.com/big-hollywood/2014/12/30/hasbro-under-fire-for-penis-shaped-play-doh-toy/


Twitter/@mediaite
Toy manufacturer Hasbro is under fire for it latest holiday season offering: a Play-Doh cake decorator that looks suspiciously like a penis.
According to Uproxx, Hasbro has been actively deleting customer complaints related to the Play-Doh Cake Mountain playset from the company Facebook page. The company is also reportedly deleting any pictures of the toy posted by social media users.

One man previously told ABC News he was unnerved by the toy.
“It’s pretty phallic… It’s a pretty phallic cake decorating piece,” the unnamed man said. “Not necessary, I don’t think.”

Despite the criticism, some Twitter users were quick to defend the company from claims they “ruined” Christmas for impressionable young children.
“Christmas ‘RUINED’ for 1 uptight family by play-doh accessory that resembles penis. For the love of god, as if little kids would notice?!?” wrote one woman.
“People are harassing @Play-Doh because a part looks like a penis. So should we ban the Washington Monument because it too resembles a monument?” wrote another.

For its part, Hasbro has reportedly heard its customers’ complaints loud and clear. On Tuesday afternoon, the company posted the following message to its Facebook page, along with the phone number for customer service:

“We have heard some consumer feedback about the extruder tool in the Play-Doh Cake Mountain playset and are in the process of updating all future Play-Doh products with a different tool.”
Perhaps “tool” is not the best choice of words.

Reincarnation and the Early Christians

Vatic Note:  This, my friends, is awesome.  Truly awesome. Its amazing what we did not know, and what is real. This below is not really just about reincarnation, but rather fully about the early and real Church of Jesus Christ.   I spent a vast majority of my life searching for the original church of Jesus Christ, and found it after 50 years of searching, reading everything I could get my hands on.  It was not until recently about 8 years ago, that I found it and cried like a baby.  When you read this below, you will understand why.

If you want to know which church it is, just ask yourselves "What is the most vilified, persecuted, and historically, physically and violently brutalized church of Christ, since its inception? "  Once you answer that, you will know which church it is.  This below will show you why.  Its the least controlling church in existance, and that is one of the reasons for its persecution by states, and the organized churches.  Remember, the original church was practiced and preached during the entire 300 years before the Nicene conference, where the other organized and controlling churches were created.

Remember, the "organized churches" as we know them today,  did not become real until 300 years after Christ’s resurrection.   And yet, there were writings by the apostles and Mary Magdalena that  were written during Christ’s time on this earth.... and pre-dated that Nicene conference by 300 years, which was simply a negotiations between the orthodox Christians as a group and Constantine and the pagans in order for Constantine to consolidate control over Rome.

The Christ based early church was much different than the churches we see today, that are heavily controlled, both Catholic and Protestant and significantly less spiritual, than Christ’s original church.  Just a note of interest, even after the creation of the Catholic Church, Constantine stayed a practising pagan, until he was on his death bed where he hedged his bets by converting to the Catholic Church just before he died. 

The politics of these churches is what caused the apostasy to happen over the original church of Jesus Christ, which was a much more spiritual church and had little or no control by a professional clergy that Christ was against, since he constantly battled with the Pharisees and Sadducees.

The members were the church leaders on a volunteer basis, until Bishop Iraneaus attacked it and confiscated all the Nag Hammadi Library writings of the apostles and ordered them burned.  Fortunately one monk in Egypt hid a copy in a cave and that is what was found in 1947 that gave us all this information.  

"The Secret Teachings" are referenced in the current King James Bible in Matthew and elsewhere, and its worth the read to confirm what is being said here. Ironically, it was the writings of the Gospels of St. Thomas that the early church members used to study Christ’s teachings. Christ told Thomas, "write what I say, and do not interpret".

What is so ironic about that is the current Bible has not one word about the St. Thomas gospel, and yet Luke, a physician, became a stated apostle, who never walked with Christ and was an Armenian, was selected by the Catholic church reps at Nicene, to be included as a forth gospel.  Luke was a physician and a protégée of Paul, who was a Pharisee who persecuted Christians before his conversion, but that discussion is for another blog.

Reincarnation and the Early Christians
http://www.thetruthseeker.co.uk/?p=10036
By Kevin Williams,  January 7, 2009

In December, 1945, early Christian writings containing many secrets of the early Christian religion were found in upper Egypt, a location where many Christians fled during the Roman invasion of Jerusalem. Undisturbed since their concealment almost two thousand years ago, these manuscripts of Christian mysticism rank in importance with the Dead Sea Scrolls

These writings affirmed the existence of the doctrine of reincarnation being taught among the early Jews and Christians. These Christian mystics, referred to as Christian Gnostics, were ultimately destroyed by the orthodox Church for being heretics. Their sacred writings were destroyed and hidden with the belief that they would be revealed at an appropriate time in the future. The discovery in 1945 yielded writings that included some long lost gospels, some of which were written earlier than the known gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Brian A. Bain, M.A., has this to say about the 1945 discovery:

"Long considered to be heretical, ancient Gnostic Christian texts unearthed this century display compelling similarities between Gnostic conceptions of life and death and modern near-death experiences. The Gnostic texts devoted extensive tracts to what readers could expect to encounter when they died. Other passages make numerous allusions to near-death-like experiences that can be realized in this life, most notably the human encounter with a divine light. The Gnostic Christian literature gives us one more example of NDEs and similar experiences in the ancient world."

Another interesting fact comes from Edgar Cayce (a near-death experiencer) who affirmed that Gnosticism is the highest form of Christianity.

The Christian Gnostics were regarded by some as a new Jewish sect who believed they had finally found the long-awaited Messiah and not a new religion. Some of the apostles became Gnostic and because of this, Christianity could well have grown up as a Gnostic religion had it not been for their eventual persecution by the organized Church centuries later.   (VN: so my question is, which of the existing churches today most resemble the gnostic teachings of Christ and the structure of Christs original church? Does anybody know?)

1. The Secret Teachings of Jesus
An important Christian Gnostic teaching was the "Logos" which in Greek is translated as "the image of the Word." It is an important concept found in the gospel of John:
"In the beginning was the Word (Logos), and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." (John 1:1)
Logos is the part of God that acts in the world. It is the perfect unity of the human and the divine. This is affirmed by John when he wrote that "the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us." When John stated that Jesus is the Logos, he is stating that Jesus became the Logos, the Christ. The Logos is the divine "spark" of God within humans that needs to awakened. Everyone has the "image of the Word (Logos)" within them and it is for this reason that Genesis describes humanity as created "in the image and likeness of God.

"The Logos is the divine Spirit in humanity. By using the Christian Gnostic idea of the Logos, John is not only affirming the preexistence and divinity of Jesus, but he is affirming that all sons of God created in the "image of the Word" as Jesus was, preexisted in spirit before being born. In other words, every human is an incarnation of the Logos and every human has to potential of becoming like Jesus, a manifestation of the human-divine unity. Every human can be a "Christ" and because of this, every soul will eventually be drawn back to God.

The Roman Church misunderstood what the Logos was in John and incorrectly concluded from this that only Jesus is divine - the Word made flesh. The orthodox Church either rejected or ignored this Christian Gnostic concept found in John. This may have been a factor when the gospel of John was almost rejected from New Testament canon when it was being put together. This was during a time when Christian Gnosticism became an enemy of the organized Church. Nevertheless, it was the idea of the preexistence of the soul and its corresponding doctrine of reincarnation that the Roman Church had great difficulty with.  

The Christian Gnostics emphasized spiritual knowledge rather blind faith as the road to salvation. They indicated that they possessed secret knowledge (i.e., "gnosis" in Greek) concerning the hidden meaning of the "resurrection." This was a part of the secret teachings of Jesus handed down to them by the apostles. This special knowledge was restricted to people who were given the public teachings of Christianity before qualifying to be initiated and receive the secret teachings. 

In contrast, the very term "Catholic" means "universal", implying that anyone could become a member of the Church by adhering to the public teachings of faith and rituals. The Christian Gnostics were harsh critics of the orthodox Church. The Christian Gnostics accused the Church of watering down the gospel in order to popularize it for the masses. The orthodox Church stressed salvation through faith alone and by the rituals of the Church.

This secret gnosis emphasized spiritual "resurrection" (i.e,. spiritual rebirth) and physical "resurrection" (i.e., reincarnation) as opposed to a resurrection defined as people sleeping in their graves until it is time their corpses to crawl out of their graves at the last day. Christian Gnostics held the view that if spiritual resurrection was not attained in one lifetime, then the soul would be subjected to as many reincarnations as it takes until spiritual rebirth is attained.

One of the great Church leaders was Clement of Alexandria in Egypt (150-211 A.D.) who indicated that he possessed the secret teaching handed down from the apostles.

In the Gnostic text entitled The Secret Gospel of Mark, one of the Christian Gnostic texts discovered in 1945, describes Jesus performing secret initiation rituals. Before the discovery of this secret gospel, our only knowledge of it came from a letter written by Clement. Clement quotes from this secret gospel and refers to it as, "a more spiritual gospel for the use of those who were being perfected." He also states, "It even yet is most carefully guarded [by the church at Alexandria], being read only to those who are being initiated into the great mysteries." Clement mentions elsewhere that Jesus revealed a secret teaching to those who were "capable of receiving it and being molded by it" He also affirmed that, "The gnosis (secret knowledge) itself is that which has descended by transmission to a few, having been imparted unwritten by the apostles." (Miscell. Book VI, Chapter 7)

The existence of a secret teaching can be found in the New Testament:
The secret of the kingdom of God has been given to you. But to those on the outside everything is said in parables so that, 'they may be ever seeing but never perceiving, and ever hearing but never understanding' (Mark 4:11-12)

"He replied, "The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance." (Matthew 13:11-12)

"We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature, but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. No, we speak of God's secret wisdom, a wisdom that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time began." (1 Corinthians 2:6-8)


"So then, men ought to regard us as servants of Christ and as those entrusted with the secret things of God." (1 Corinthians 4:1)

"At that time Jesus said, "I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and Earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this was your good pleasure." (Matthew 11:25-26)
Paul wrote about teachings which are taught to spiritual "babies," teachings about righteousness for the more mature, and then teachings for the spiritually mature. Paul reveals this fact immediately after equating Melchizedek to Jesus by stating:
"We have much to say about this, but it is hard to explain because you are slow to learn. In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God's word all over again. You need milk, not solid food! Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil. (Hebrews 5:11-14)  (VN: in early times in the Nicene conference they originally left out the Letters to the Hebrews.  You can see why, by this quote above. They finally put it back in.)

According to tradition, after the Roman invasion of Jerusalem, the author of the Gospel of Mark established a church in Alexandria, Egypt. Mark may also have been the author of a "secret gospel" containing more advanced teaching for those being initiated into the Christian mysteries. This secret gospel contains passages portraying Jesus teaching secret doctrines.

2. Origen: The Champion for the Secret Teachings of Jesus

As the orthodox church in Rome gained more and more political power the more it viewed secret teachings as a threat to their own public teachings. But the Church leader who made the final and greatest attempt to revive the secret teachings of Jesus within the orthodox teachings was the first Church Father named Origen (183-253 A.D.) of Alexandria in Egypt who was a disciple of Clement of Alexandra. 

Origen was the first person since Paul to develop a system of theology around the teachings of Jesus. His effort was the first within the orthodox church to systematize a theology on so vast a scale. Although Origen defended orthodoxy, he included in his system the wisdom of the Christian Gnostics. His theology was a perfect synthesis of "orthodox" and "gnostic" teachings and came the closest to reviving the "Lost Christianity" of the original sects, communities and schools, at a time when the Christian Gnosticism was falling into disrepute. Unfortunately, hundreds of years later, the Church declared him a heretic and his teachings as heresy mostly because they affirmed preexistence and therefore reincarnation.

Origen had this to say about the secret teachings of Jesus:
"[Jesus] conversed with His disciples in private, and especially in their sacred retreats, concerning the Gospel of God; but the words which He uttered have not been preserved, because it appeared to the evangelists that they could not be adequately conveyed to the multitude in writing or in speech and they saw what things were to be committed to writing, and how this was to be done, and what was by no means to be written to the multitude, and what was to be expressed in words, and what was not to be so conveyed." (Contra Celsus, Chap. VI. 18)
Concerning these secret teachings, Clement stated:
"James the Righteous, John and Peter were entrusted by the Lord after his resurrection with the higher knowledge. They imparted it to the other apostles, to the seventy"  (Outlines Book VI(VN: The reference to the apostles and the "seventy" are found in the King James Bible, as the 12 apostles and the "Quorum of Seventy".

3. The Theology of Christian Gnosticism
According to Gnostic theology, a series of "falling away" from the Whole that is God occurred in eternity which resulted in all that there is today. After the first "fall", the divine consciousness descended to the level of the divided consciousness; now after another "fall", it has fallen even further, into the depths of the unconscious; it has been "forgotten." It is now humanity's privilege to discover the potential realms of human existence and face the great challenge of the "ascension of consciousness" through the Man-God-Spirit transformation.

Once souls fell into the lower levels of consciousness, they became enamored of it and burned with the desire to experience the pleasures of matter. The souls then no longer wanted to disengage itself from these lower levels. Thus the world was born. From that moment souls forgot themselves. They forgot they original habitation, their true center and eternal being.  (VN:  Awesome, and so true and so amazing for such ancient writings.)

Gnosticism proceeds from one fundamental insight: this world in which we find ourselves is thoroughly and irretrievably less than holy. The soul is trapped in a prison of flesh, and the flesh is intrinsically less than divine. According to Gnostic theology, the creation of the cosmos came about as the result of a tragicomic mistake: the fall of the soul from God. Thanks to the advent of Christ in the lower realms of consciousness, the power of reconciling the fallen souls has been given to restore the One-ness and usher in the kingdom of light over the kingdom of flesh and matter. The unity of the Godhead is assured thanks to the introduction of the new uniting force, the Logos, the part of God who acts in the flesh and the material. It is important to distinguish the Logos (Christ) from the soul named Jesus. Any person has the potential of becoming a Logos but it was the soul known as Jesus who actually incarnated as a Logos and therefore became a Christ on Earth.

We, as humans, cannot comprehend the omnipotent power available to us until we utilize the Christ power. When we effectively use the divine "Christ awareness" we have the ability to help in the liberation of the imprisoned "sparks of divinity" from flesh and rejoin them to the Source. The divine plan of creation will become complete as the divine outpouring of Christ gnosis liberates humanity from ignorance. The result of this will be the redemption of all human beings.

The Christ power can only liberate souls through the call and revelation of Christ gnosis to, "Awake, remember who you are and where you come from!" But since the soul cannot by itself hear the gnosis, the Christ power resorts to elaborate strategies to create the conditions for which all souls will be saved.

Christian Gnostics felt that initiation into the Cosmic Christ gnosis is inseparable from "the light which lighteth every person coming into the world." It is this light within, our Higher Self, which each individual must bring to at-one-ment with the divine Source if liberation is to occur.

As more and more people hear the call to "Wake up!" and attain the Christ gnosis and become liberated, their souls are received back into the bosom of Divine Consciousness. The soul becomes free from unholy flesh and the cycle of birth and rebirth. Christian Gnostics seek to achieve this by cultivating the Higher Self within people to seek reunification with the Godhead. But each soul returning to its divine source must, after death, pass through the various levels of consciousness. Sometimes Christian Gnostics describe seven of these heavenly realms, other times ten.

4. Christian Gnostic Writings
The following quote from Jesus from the Christian Gnostic gospel, the Book of Thomas the Contender, describes Jesus teaching reincarnation:
"Watch and pray that you may not be born in the flesh, but that you may leave the bitter bondage of this life." (Book of Thomas the Contender 9:5)
In another part of the Book of Thomas the Contender, Jesus tells the disciple Thomas that after death, those people who were once believers but have remained attached to things of "transitory beauty," will be consumed "in their concern about life" and will be "brought back to the visible realm."

The following quote from Jesus in the Gospel of Thomas affirms Jesus teaching reincarnation to his disciples:
"When you see your likeness, you are happy. But when you see your images that came into being before and that neither die nor become visible, how much you will bear!" (Gospel of Thomas, saying 84)
More excerpts from this very interesting gospel will be profiled later.

In the Secret Book of John, written by 185 A.D. at the latest, reincarnation is placed at the center of the discussion concerning the salvation of souls. The following is a summary of the Secret Book of John's perspective on reincarnation.

"Everyone has drunk from the water of forgetfulness and lives in a state of ignorance. Some people are able to overcome ignorance by having the life-giving Spirit descend upon them. These souls "will be saved and will become perfect," that is, escape the cycle of birth and rebirth. John asks Jesus what will happen to those who do not attain salvation. They are hurled down "into forgetfulness" and thrown into "prison," the Christian Gnostic symbol for a new body."

Jesus says the only way for these souls to escape is to acquire knowledge after coming from forgetfulness. A soul can accomplish this by finding a teacher who can lead the soul in the right direction:

"This soul needs to follow another soul in whom the Spirit of life dwells, because she is saved through the Spirit. Then she will never be thrust into flesh again." (Secret Book of John 14:20)

Another Christian Gnostic book, the Pistis Sophia (Greek for "Faith Wisdom"), outlines a system of punishment and rewards that includes reincarnation. The book explains the differences in one's fate as a result of past-life actions. A "man who curses" will be given a body that is continually "troubled in heart." A "man who slanders" will be given an "oppressed" body. A thief will be given a "lame, crooked and blind body." A "proud" and "scornful" man will be given "a lame and ugly body" that "everyone continually despises." From this, we can see how this Earth, as well as hell, is a place of education through suffering.

According to the Pistis Sophia, some souls experience hell as a place of shadows and torture. However, after these souls pass through hell, they return to Earth for further experiences. Only a relatively few extremely evil souls are not permitted to reincarnate. These souls are cast into "outer darkness" until a time when they are "destroyed and dissolved."

The Pistis Sophia combines the ideas of reincarnation and divine union in a verse beginning with the question:
"[What happens to] a man who has committed no sin, but done good persistently, but has not found the mysteries?" (Pistis Sophia)
The Pistis Sophia reveals such a soul will receive "a cup filled with thoughts and wisdom," allowing the soul to remember its divine origin and pursue the "mysteries of the light" until it finds them and is able to "inherit the light forever." To "inherit the light forever" is a Gnostic term for union with God.

In the Gospel of Phillip, Jesus makes a clear distinction between the resurrection of the spirit (i.e., spiritual rebirth) and the resurrection of the body (i.e., physical rebirth, reincarnation):
"People who say they will first die and then arise are mistaken. If they do not first receive resurrection while they are alive, once they have died they will receive nothing." (Gospel of Philip 73:1-4)
In the Apocryphal book, Wisdom of Solomon, recognized as canonical by the Catholic Church, is the following verse:
"I was given a sound body to live in because I was already good." (Wisdom of Solomon 8:19-20)
This verse raises the following question: How is it possible to get a body after you have already been good, unless reincarnation is true?

Among the works of the Christian Gnostics are some of the early gospels, including secret gospels which were not preserved in the New Testament. The Gospel of Thomas was the first gospel ever written and is considered by scholars to be the most reliable gospel. Much of this gospel contains sayings of Jesus that are contained in the four New Testament gospels.

The Christian Gnostic gospels reveal a clear and strong vision of the resurrection as a past and present event. Below is a verse from the Gospel of Thomas that shows the "resurrection" to be a past event:
"His followers said to him, 'When will the rest for the dead take place, and when will the new world come?' He said to them, 'What you look for has come, but you do not know it.'" (Gospel of Thomas, saying 51)
In the verse above, Jesus says the resurrection and the kingdom are already here. In Gnostic terms, this quote from Jesus refers to a person's past "resurrection" (i.e., physical rebirth, reincarnation) and the fact that we are already living in the kingdom of God which exists within us. Only through the Christ gnosis can this kingdom be realized and the cycle of resurrection end.

5. The Gospel of Thomas
The sayings that are presented below are excerpts of the Gospel of Thomas that are not present in the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
"These are the secret sayings that the living Jesus spoke and Judas Thomas the Twin recorded.

Jesus said, "Whoever finds the interpretation of these sayings will not taste death."

Jesus said, "Let one who seeks not stop seeking until one finds. When one finds, one will be disturbed. When one is disturbed, one will be amazed, and will reign over all."

Jesus said, "If your leaders say to you, 'Behold, the kingdom is in the sky,' then the birds in the sky will get there before you. If they say to you, 'It is in the sea,' then the fish will get there before you. Rather, the kingdom is inside you and outside you. When you know yourselves, then you will be known, and will understand that you are children of the living Father. But if you do not know yourselves, then you live in poverty, and embody poverty."


Jesus said, "Know what is within your sight, and what is hidden from you will become clear to you. For there is nothing hidden that will not be revealed."

Jesus said, "I have thrown fire on the world and, behold, I am guarding it until it is ablaze."

Jesus said to his disciples, "Compare me with someone, and tell me whom I am like." Simon Peter said to him, "You are like a just angel." Matthew said to him, "You are like a wise philosopher." Thomas said to him, "Teacher, my mouth is utterly unable to say whom you are like." Jesus said, "I am not your teacher. You have become intoxicated because you have drunk from the bubbling spring that I have tended." And he took Thomas and withdrew, and told him three things. When Thomas came back to his friends, they asked him, "What did Jesus tell you?" Thomas said to them, "If I tell you even one of the things he told me, you will pick up rocks and stone me. Then fire will come forth from the rocks and devour you."

The disciples said to Jesus, "Tell us about the end." Jesus said, "Have you already discovered the beginning, that now you can seek after the end? For where the beginning is, the end will be. Blessed is one who stands at the beginning: that one will know the end, and will not taste death."Jesus said, "Blessed is one who came to life before coming to life."

Jesus said, "If you become my disciples and hearken to my sayings, these stones will serve you."

Jesus saw some babies nursing. He said to his disciples, "These nursing babies are like those who enter the kingdom." They said to him, "Then shall we enter the kingdom as babies?" Jesus said to them, "When you make the two into one, when you make the inner like the outer and the outer like the inner, and the upper like the lower, when you make male and female into a single one, so that the male will not be male and the female will not be female, when you make eyes replacing an eye, a hand replacing a hand, a foot replacing a foot, and an image replacing an image, then you will enter the kingdom."

Jesus said, "Blessed are those who are alone and chosen: you will find the kingdom. For you have come from it, and you will return there again."

His disciples said to him, "When will the final rest for the dead take place, and when will the new world come?" He said to them, "What you look for has already come, but you do not know it."

Jesus said, "I disclose my mysteries to those who are worthy of my mysteries. Do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing."

Jesus said, "Whoever knows everything but lacks within lacks everything."

Jesus said, "If you bring forth what is within you, what you have will save you. If you do not have that within you, what you do not have within you will kill you."

Jesus said, "I am the light that is over all things. I am all: all came forth from me, and all attained to me. Split a piece of wood, and I am there. Pick up a stone, and you will find me there."

Jesus said, "Whoever is close to me is close to the fire, and whoever is far from me is far from the kingdom."

Jesus said, "Images are visible to people, but the light within is hidden in the Father's image of light. He will reveal himself, but his image is hidden by his light."

Jesus said, "When you see a likeness of yourself, you are happy. But when you see your images that came into being before you, and that neither die nor become visible, how much you will be able to tolerate!"

Jesus said, "When you make the two into one, you will become sons of man, and when you say, 'Mountain, move!' it will move."

Jesus said, "Whoever drinks from my mouth will be like me, and I shall be that person, and what is hidden will be revealed to that one."

Jesus says, "Whoever finds self is worth more than the world."

His disciples said to him, "When will the kingdom come?" "It will not come by looking for it. Nor will it do to say, 'Behold, over here!' or 'Behold, over there!' Rather, the kingdom of the Father is spread out on the Earth, but people do not see it." (Gospel of Thomas)

6. The Apocalyptic Texts
Among the Christian Gnostic writings were no less than five separate apocalypses. Here they are:

The First Apocalypse of James contains the secret teachings of Christ that were given to James the Just, the Lord's brother. In it, James refers to Jesus as "rabbi." Jesus warns James to leave Jerusalem, for the city is a dwelling place of a great number of "archons" or evil angels. Jerusalem is stigmatized as the city which "gives the cup of bitterness to the sons of light." Jesus coaches James on what to say when he is judged and challenged by the "toll collectors" of heaven in order to pass through the gates of heaven.


The Apocalypse of Peter is a record of the vision of Peter the apostle in which he speaks with Christ in the spirit. In this, Peter is clearly seen as the true successor to Christ and the founder of the Gnostic community. In the vision, Peter first sees hostile priests who seem to be intent upon stoning him and Christ to death. Next, Peter recalls the crucifixion during which Jesus stood nearby talking with him.
Peter asks, "Who is this one glad and laughing on the tree (i.e., cross)? And is it another one whose feet and hands they are striking?"

Christ replies, "He whom you saw on the tree, glad and laughing, this is the living Jesus. But this one into whose hands and feet they drive the nails is his fleshy part, which is the substitute being put to shame, the one who came into  being in his likeness. But look at him and me."
Peter seemed to realize that it would be a long time before his book was read and understood, for he writes:
"These things, then, which you saw you shall present to those of another race who are not of this age." (Apocalypse of Peter)
He seems to be right, as this apocalypse has only just seen the light of day before we enter the age that many believe will begin with the second coming of Christ.

7. The Apocalypse of Paul
The Apocalypse of Paul is an account of the apostle's ascent into heaven and what he found there, with instructions for other souls on how to conduct themselves during judgment. One of the most interesting aspects of this text is that it corresponds to events found in the New Testament and includes references to reincarnation. Several Christian Gnostic texts combine the ideas of reincarnation and union with God.

As Paul passes through the fourth heaven, he witnesses a soul being punished for murder. This soul is brought "out of the land of the dead" (i.e., Earth) by angels where three witnesses charge the soul with murder. The soul looks sorrowfully down and is cast down into a body that has been prepared for it. The book describes Paul's journey through the heavens, which is also symbolic for the Gnostic process of union with God.

The New Testament contains a letter by the apostle Paul to the Christians in the city of Corinth, Greece, where he had founded a church on his first visit there. The Christians at this church were being divided by the teachings of so-called "false teachers" that were infiltrating the church there and Paul wrote a letter telling them to not forget what they were taught by Paul. 

These "false teachers" were trying to get people to follow their teachings and not Paul's. In order to put these false teachers to shame, Paul rebukes the Corinthians by using false pride and boasting about himself and telling the church why he is more qualified than the false teachers. He tells them of his sufferings and how he was once stoned and left for dead (2 Corinthians 11:23-26). The letter goes on to say:
"I must go on boasting. Although there is nothing to be gained, I will go on to visions and revelations from the Lord. I know a person in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know - God knows. And I know that this person - whether in the body or apart from the body I do not know, but God knows - was caught up to paradise. He heard inexpressible things, things that humans are not permitted to tell." (2 Corinthians 12:1-4)
In the above passage, Paul continued his "boasting" by telling about visions and revelations he had received from the Lord. "I know a person in Christ" means that he was speaking about himself. He explained that he didn't know if he was taken up in his body or in his spirit, but he was in paradise ("the third heaven"). This incident cannot be positively identified with a recorded event in Paul's career, although some think this may have been when he was stoned and left for dead (Acts 14:19-20). Paul told about this incident to show that he had been uniquely touched by God.

Many people are unaware of this passage of the Bible and that it is a near-death experience which Paul had. The person who wrote most of the New Testament, the sacred writings of orthodox Christianity, had a near-death experience which he based his authority as an apostle of Christ to the Corinthian church. It can even be argued that his near-death experience directly or indirectly inspired his epistles.

The Apocalypse of Paul reveals how each soul must rise as best it can after death through a hierarchy of heavens and face the increasingly difficult challenges posed by the guardian angels of each heaven. The journey begins with Paul meeting a child on the mountain of Jericho on the way to heaven (symbolized by Jerusalem). This child turns out to be the Holy Spirit, who takes Paul first to the third heaven.

The Holy Spirit warns Paul to keep his wits about him for they are about to enter the realm of "principalities ... archangels and powers and the whole race of demons." The Holy Spirit also mentions that they will pass "one that reveals bodies to a soul-seed," that is, the being that takes souls and plants them in new bodies for reincarnation. For the soul who wished to ascend to the highest heaven, reincarnation was to be avoided.

When Paul reaches the fourth heaven, the Holy Spirit encourages him to look down upon his body which he has left behind on the mountain of Jericho. As Paul ascends, he witnesses in the fourth heaven the judgment and punishment of another soul. He says, "I saw the angels resembling gods ... bringing a soul out of the land of the dead." The soul has been resurrected so that it can be judged, one of the four events promised for the end of the world. The angels were whipping it.

The soul spoke, saying, "What sin was it that I committed in the world?" The "toll collector" of this heavenly gate accuses the soul. The soul replies, "Bring witnesses! Let them show you in what body I committed lawless deeds." Three bodies rise up as witnesses and accuse the soul of anger and envy, and finally murder. When the soul heard these things, it gazed downwards in sorrow ... It was cast down.

At this point we expect the soul to be cast into hell, as in later Christian doctrine, but no: "the soul that had been cast down went to a body which had been prepared for it," and was reincarnated.

Paul, somewhat shaken by this experience, was beckoned forward by the Holy Spirit and allowed to pass through the gate of the fifth heaven. Here he saw his fellow apostles and "a great angel in the fifth heaven holding an iron rod in his hand." This angel and three other angels, with whips in their hands, scourge the souls of the dead and drive them on to judgment. Paul remains with the Holy Spirit and the gates to the sixth heaven swing open effortlessly before him.

In the sixth heaven, Paul sees a strong light shining down on him from the heaven above. He is motioned by the "toll collector" through the gates of the seventh heaven. Here, he sees "an old man filled with light and whose garment was white. His throne, which is in the seventh heaven, was brighter than the sun by seven times." This old man bears a striking resemblance to Jehovah as he is described in the vision of Ezekiel.

The old man asks, "Where are you going, Paul?" Only reluctantly, after some encouragement from the Holy Spirit, does Paul speak with him and give the Gnostic sign he has learned. The eighth heaven then opens and Paul ascends. Here he embraces the twelve disciples, most of whom he has not met before, and together they rise to the ninth heaven. Finally, Paul reaches the tenth and highest heaven, where he is transformed.

8. The Suppression of Christian Gnosticism
The Christian Gnostics believed in reincarnation and the preexistence of the soul. They refused to believe in a resurrection of corpses at the end of time. They emphasized meeting Jesus on a spiritual level to become liberated and attain permanent citizenship in heaven. The Church of Rome of the second century A.D., on the other hand, declared that those who deny a Last Day resurrection of corpses are heretics.

Many Christian Gnostics regarded themselves as part of the organized body of Christians of the early church. However, as the organized Church gained political control of the Roman Empire, the Christian Gnostics were persecuted by the organized Church and many were martyred. The Christian Gnostic tradition is one of many branches of early Christianity labeled as heretical by the early Church fathers. 

The Gnostic influences and writings were cut out of official Church doctrines as heresy. Because of their suspected Christian Gnostic origins, the Gospel of John and the Book of Revelation was almost rejected from the New Testament. Nevertheless, the organized Church succeeded in hiding its Christian Gnostic doctrines.

It is not surprising that the orthodox Church bishops edited out the practical spiritual knowledge which was once an integral part of Christianity and was known and practiced by the apostle Paul. For these fathers, it was far more convenient and gratifying for their egos to assert that spiritual grace could only be attained through them as Christ's representatives on Earth. 

To control the masses, the political organization of the church declared that salvation was attained only through the church rituals and through the priesthood. Salvation through a personal mystical experience with Christ apart from the organized church was cast away. In a move that is very likely to have met with the disapproval of Christ himself, the worldly political aspirations of a few priests won out over the spiritual enlightenment of the many.

And as it is with any religion or movement, the successors of its founder decided which things to keep and which to throw out. The organized Church discarded the spiritual knowledge of Christian Gnosticism as being too dangerous and kept the concept of blind acceptance of church doctrine.

Ultimately, the organized Church declared Christian Gnosticism a heresy and began killing those who adhered to its doctrines. Thus the powerful Roman Church began its crusade of eliminating all rivals to its authority. Christian Gnosticism was obliterated and relatively little historical and theological information was left to fully understand early Christian history. 

This all changed in 1945 with the discovery of the Gnostic Christian scriptures discovered in Egypt. Then in 1947, the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls of early Jewish Gnostic writings occurred. Today, with many Christians wondering if the Second Coming of Christ is soon to happen, it may not be a coincidence that these secret writings have come to surface after two thousand years of being hidden. Finally, after two thousands years, the secret is finally out again.
