“This step required a development of proper methodological tools and security checks that came from within and reliance on one’s subtle inner intuition in judging whether the revealed truths are coming from the true Lord Jesus Christ or they are of the negative, deceiving source. Thus, the era of blind faith is irrevocably dead. From now on, every individual, in his/her intuition, is responsible for finding out about the verity of The New Revelation from within and not from without. This is one of the most crucial principles of The New Revelation.”

“The Old Revelation was written from the position of separation of fundamental spiritual principles. As mentioned above, the spirituality of that time was externalized and ritualized. No unifying principle can exist in the state of externalization and ritualization. The nature of externals and rituals is separation, disunion, dissension, factiousness and fractionalization. This is the negative state. For that reason, a language of correspondences and symbolisms is used in The Old Revelation in order to keep intact the unification principle in the within, while, at the same time, allow that separation in the without.“
“A good example of this separation in the literal or external sense of The Old Revelation is the way the nature of The Lord Jesus Christ is perceived. Let us take the very first verse of the First Chapter of The Revelation of Jesus Christ in The Holy Bible. It states,”
“‘The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants...’”
“or Chapter 2, verse 18, the second part of the verse,”
“‘These things says the Son of God...’”
“or Chapter 2, verse 27, the last part of the verse,”
“‘as I also have received from My Father,’”
“and so in many other places in The Holy Bible. The literal meaning of these statements is very plain and obvious: Two separate persons or entities are involved. One is Jesus Christ, or Son of God, the other is God or the Father. In the Epistles of the Apostles and in some places of The Gospels in The New Testament, the third entity is added — The Holy Spirit. Thus, we have here the proverbial Christian Trinity which separated unity, oneness, harmony and integration of One Indivisible God into three distinctly separate entities — One God — but nevertheless in the three persons. Can you visualize one body with three heads on it?”
“The ridiculousness, abomination, atrocity and danger of this separation in the literal sense was already revealed through Emanuel Swedenborg. Yet it continues to plague the so-called Christian religions with a ferocity of strains of flu viruses, resistant to any known means of cure. And if a new medication is found for its cure, the strains of the virus mutate into a new form to incorporate the nature of the new medication, thus, making it useless and ineffective in its therapeutic property. No matter what, the flu and common cold reappear again and again with even greater and more vicious symptoms and deadly complications.”
“The reason why it was necessary to speak from the position of this separation was that, at that time, no true spiritual knowledge existed about the fact that all relatedness to God or The Lord Jesus Christ had to be established from within, in one’s ‘Spiritual Mind;’ and not from without. At that time, it was assumed that the true worship or relatedness (to worship means to properly relate) to one’s God could be accomplished only by following certain externally prescribed rituals, as can be seen so nicely from the Laws of Moses in the Old Testament and Paul’s dictates in the New Testament. For important spiritual reasons, the so-called Christians conveniently disregarded what Jesus Christ said about this in The Gospel According to John, Chapter 4, verse 24,”
“‘God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.’”
“That ‘God is Spirit’ signifies that God is The Most Within (formerly called ‘The Most High’. The Most High is a spiritual correspondence of The Most Within). Spirit is The Most Within. To worship Him in spirit and truth means to worship or relate to Him from and in within. Such a worship or relatedness is possible only from and in within each individual, in his/her Spiritual Mind. The Spiritual Mind of each individual is his/her Most Within where the presence of God is and from which presence everyone lives. This is the truth of the matter. This is the worship in truth because all knowledge of the true spiritual principles can come only from within — from the presence of God in that within. In the within, no separation is possible.”
