The 1,000-Year Reign
Revelation 20:1-7



A very popular take today on the end-times timeline is the premillennial view which teaches that Christ will come unexpectedly and take all the believers to Heaven. Then, following this rapture, a seven-year period of tribulation will take place on Earth. After this tribulation, Christ will come back and reign on Earth for 1,000 years, after which the world will be destroyed.

This was the dominant teaching when I was growing up and still is today. However, it is not accurate. The book of Revelation is very complex with confusing language, but wonderfully we are living in a day when God is granting additional understanding to Bible students around the world (see Study on The Book's Been Opened).

Part of what has made the end-times prophecies so difficult to fully understand is the fact that God did not write about them chronologically. Part of the reason the timing of this “1,000-year” reign has been so misunderstood is because Bible teachers everywhere have incorrectly assumed that the events depicted in Revelation 20 chronologically follow the events of Revelation 19.

Summary

The only place in the Bible where we read of a 1,000-year reign is in Revelation chapter 20 so we are going to examine this passage verse by verse. When we do that we discover that the “1,000-year” reign is a figurative time label that is applied to the same timeframe as the Early Rain (see Study on The Latter Rain). It began in 33 AD and ended at the beginning of the Great Tribulation when Satan was loosed.



Verse 1
“And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.”

Christ is the angel that holds the key to the bottomless pit:
“Fear not; I am the first and the last: I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.” (Revelation 1:17-18)

Christ is sometimes referred to as an angel. For example, Michael the archangel is a name for Christ (see Study on Michael The Archangel).




Verse 2
“And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,”

Here we learn that Christ binds Satan for a thousand years. We will develop an understanding of this as we progress through the next few verses.



Verse 3
“And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.”

According to verses 2 and 3, Satan was both bound and cast into the bottomless pit at the same time. To better understand this passage, let's take a look at Revelation 12:9:
"And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him."
There is no doubt that this is speaking of the same event as Revelation 20:2-3.

Notice that Satan was cast out into Earth, not a place called hell as many assume Revelation 20:3 is referencing. This is why comparing Scripture with Scripture is so important. It was at this time when Satan was cast out of Heaven forever. Where most people get confused is that they assume when Satan fell from Heaven he no longer had access to it. However, Satan did in fact have access to Heaven during the Old Testament era:
“Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.” (Job 1:6)
“Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD.” (Job 2:1)
The “sons of God” in Job is a reference to believers, so these passages are speaking of a gathering of believers before God in Heaven, among which Satan was present.

The opening verses of Revelation chapter 12 speak of Christ coming to set up His church. As it speaks about Satan being cast out to Earth it says that he lost access to Heaven:
“And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.” (Revelation 12:8)

So Revelation chapter 12 teaches that Satan was cast out around the time of Christ’s first coming about 2,000 years ago. When the time came for Christ to face the wrath of God for the believers He declared it was time for Satan to be cast out:
“Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.” (John 12:31)
It was at the cross when Satan was cast out. Therefore, it must be true that Satan was also bound at the cross since, according to Revelation 20:2-3, both events take place at the same time. Let’s verify this.

We read that Satan and his angels are already bound in chains reserved for destruction:
“And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.” (Jude 1:6)
This ties in with our passage in Revelation 20 which speaks of Christ coming with chains to bind Satan. This verse was written some time after Christ’s crucifixion in 33 AD and before the completion of the Bible in about 95 AD. Therefore, Satan was already in chains before 95 AD.

God declares that Christ came to destroy the works of Satan:
“He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.” (1 John 3:8)
Christ accomplished this through His work on the cross:
“Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil” (Hebrews 2:14)
It was at this point when Satan stood condemned (John 16:7-11). Satan was bound at the cross, but clearly he was still able to work in the world to a certain degree.

Some people may have difficulty with seeing how Satan can be bound, but not completely. Look at it this way: a prisoner is bound but is still free to lift weights or watch TV. You can drive but not through red lights, or at 100mph, or without your seatbelt. You are bound by laws; or rather, you are limited by them. Likewise, Satan's powers were limited when he was bound at the cross. Before the cross, relatively few people became saved, even when Jesus was preaching. However, just after the cross Peter preached to a crowd and about 3,000 were saved in one afternoon (Acts 2:41). Something had hurt Satan's ability to deceive, which ties in with the statement in Revelation 20:3 that Satan was bound so that he could deceive the nations no more.

Remember, the number 1,000 in the Bible is often used figuratively to signify "many" or "all.” For example, we read about the cattle on 1,000 hills in Psalm 50:10 and the “ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands” angels, beasts, and elders in Revelation 5:11. These numbers are to be understood figuratively, not literally. Likewise, the “1,000-year” reign spoken of in Revelation chapter 20 does not span a literal 1,000 years. We know it began at the cross. We read that after the 1,000 years are expired Satan must be loosed for a little season. When we piece everything together we discover that the little season in view is the Great Tribulation.

But similar things happened in 1000AD. People thought Christ was coming -- many more people than today (if you take the population difference into account). Many went into the wilderness. Mount Athos became the magnet of many anchorites and cenobitic communities. In 999AD there was only one thought on their minds -- the second coming. And what happened?

Ice...

I appreciate your taking the time to expound upon this subject. I don't agree with everything you state here, but I do believe that the 1000 year reign of Christ is an overlooked and yet extremely important subject.

The 'little while' that satan is bound during this reign seems to be a time when there is peace upon the earth, and when Believers are taught and teach others. Clearly, there are some non-Believers left upon the earth, (cast into the 'outer darkness'), who will be bitter and rebellious at the time that satan is released, 'for a season' upon the earth.

This is Armageddon... the final battle.

Those who are still alive and who have lived outside the New Jerusalem... (the "Outer Darkness"), are resentful that they have not been allowed to live in the NJ... (NOT Russ').

satan is released and causes these individuals to rise up against God and His people.

The rebellious have SEEN God on earth... have watched the activities of His people, and yet still rebel. They have to be the hardest of the hard-hearted.

Even they, though, have been allowed a time to make a decision to do good or evil... With God that close to them.

Their decision to follow satan is the final straw. They, along with their master, are destroyed.

Peace reigns afterwards, with a new heaven and a new earth.

This is my understanding of the subject.

I am not dogmatic.

Thanks again...

Christ will return for His people and set up heaven on earth for a thousand year rein where His elect will retrain all those who were not saved because of false teachings by bad ministers of Gods word the Bible. That is true but that happens here on earth , and there is no rapture when christ returns we all change in the twinkle of an eye , the good and bad .This false teaching of being raptured away to be saved from the tribulation is bull crap, we all must go through the tribulation . Those who have the sea
Of God in there forehead will be saved from satans minions attacking them, there job is to bare witness against Satan when delivered up.
A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever. †.

You mean the 1,000 years where all the "True Christians" will reign over all the "False Christians" and non-believers?

No, I don't believe in it.

I love that Christians will argue over the interpretations of corrupted English translations of the Bible.

The New Testament

The New Covemant

New Jerusalem

When it comes to Christians and Bible prophecy, the hot
spot is Jerusalem. Prophecy teachers around the world are
talking about the Jews, the Arabs, the peace process, a
rebuilt Jewish Temple, and a final Middle East war of
Armageddon.

In Pastor John Hagee’s published book, The Battle for
Jerusalem, Pastor Hagee explains the heart of Israel’s
struggle for Jerusalem and the Holy Temple Mount - and why
the battle for Jerusalem should be of major concern to
Christians around the world.

Should it really?

While Christians should love Jewish people (and everyone
else), and should definitely support Israel in her struggle
against terrorism,
we wish to ask - Does the New Testament really say
we should focus on the earthly city of Jerusalem?

And do New Testament prophecies, as is so commonly taught,
really swirl around this location?

The answer may surprise you.

First of all,
there is not one single "direct" reference
in the book of Revelation
to the earthly city of Jerusalem!

Look for yourself.

Jesus referred to "the city of my God, which is New
Jerusalem, which cometh down from heaven from my God"
(Rev 3:12).

"And I John saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down
out of heaven from my God"
(Rev 21:2).

"And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high
mountain, and showed me that great city, the holy
Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God"
(Rev 21:10).

Here the New Jerusalem is plainly called
"the holy city," and this is where the saints of God
are to live eternally.

Rev 11:2 also refers to "the holy city."
Again, in Rev 22:19, we read about "the holy city."

And Rev 20:9 describes a final battle at the end of the
1000 years against "the camp of the saints ... the beloved
city" (Rev 20:9).

Christians sometimes apply these verses to the present,
earthly city of Jerusalem, but Revelation itself
does not do this.

As we have already seen, Revelation defines
"the holy city" as the "new Jerusalem"
(Rev 21:2).

Thus there is no proof that the book of Revelation has even
one reference to earthly Jerusalem!

Concerning the saints of God,
the New Testament says,
"But now they desire a better country,
that is, an heavenly:
wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God:
for he hath prepared for them a city"
(Hebrews 11:16).

This city is clearly the New Jerusalem.
Paul told his readers,
"But you are come to mount Sion,
and unto the city of the living God,
the heavenly Jerusalem"
(Hebrews 12:22).

The most powerful New Testament section on this subject is
Galatians 4:22-31.

An honest and careful study of Paul’s words reveals that
earthly "Jerusalem which now is" (verse 25)
is compared to Hagar, Ishmael, (verse 22),
and the flesh (verse 23).

Amazingly, it is "cast out" (verse 31)
and is no longer an "heir" to the promises of God.

But the "Jerusalem which is above is free,
which is the mother of us all" (verse 26).

Christians should love Jewish people, and should seek to
thoughtfully share with them the message of Jesus their
Messiah.

Yet according to the New Testament,
our focus should be on the New Jerusalem,
rather than the present, war torn city in the Middle East.


by Steve Wohlberg



Galatians 4:22-31 (King James Version)

22 For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by
a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.

23 But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the
flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise.

24 Which things are an allegory:
for these are the two covenants;
the one from the mount Sinai,
which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar.

25 For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth
to “Jerusalem which now is”
and is in bondage with her children.

26 But Jerusalem which is above is free,
which is the mother of us all.

27 For it is written, Rejoice, thou barren that bearest
not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for the
desolate hath many more children than she which hath an
husband.

28 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was,
are the children of promise.

29 But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted
him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now.

30 Nevertheless what saith the scripture? “Cast out”
the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman
shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman.

31 So then, brethren,
we are not children of the bondwoman,
but of the free.

God Bless His Word


Galatians and The Book of Revelation
speak of The Lord Jesus reigning from New Jerusalem
which is above;
The Holy City;
The Millennial City.



The two witnesses

Revelation 11:3-13 (King James Version)

3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they
shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days,
clothed in sackcloth.

4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks
standing before the God of the earth.

5 And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of
their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man
will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.

6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the
days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn
them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as
often as they will.

7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the
beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make
war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.

8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the
great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt,
where also our Lord was crucified.

9 And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and
nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half,
and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.

10 And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over
them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another;
because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the
earth.

11 And after three days and an half the spirit of life from
God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and
great fear fell upon them which saw them.

12 And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto
them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a
cloud; and their enemies beheld them.

13 And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the
tenth part of the city fell (earthly Jerusalem), and in the
earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the
remnant (6th Seal remnant) were affrighted,
and gave glory to the God of heaven.



Spiritual Israel

– Those who worship in spirit and in truth

John 4:19-24 (King James Version)

The Samaritan woman

19 The woman saith unto him, Sir,
I perceive that thou art a prophet.

20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say,
that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.

21 Jesus saith unto her,
Woman, believe me, the hour cometh,
when ye shall neither in this mountain,
nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.

22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship:
for salvation is of the Jews.

23 But the hour cometh,
and now is,
when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in
spirit and in truth:
for the Father seeketh such to worship him.

24 God is a Spirit:
and they that worship him must worship him
in spirit and in truth.



Galatians 6:15-18 (King James Version)

15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any
thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.

16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on
them, and mercy, and upon “the Israel of God.”

17 From henceforth let no man trouble me:
for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.

18 Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with
your spirit. Amen.



Romans 11:26 (King James Version)

26 And so all Israel shall be saved:

Context:
When "the fullness of the Gentiles has come in”
(grafted into the vine),
then all Israel will be saved;
Spiritual Israel,
“The Israel of God”.

ICE, it is going to be a permanent REIGN this prison world that was stolen is being returned to cosmic management forever. the bible and the teachings in christianity have been hugely falsified. Revelations, if you read it, repeats itself like crazy, and nothing is on a perfect time line ever, because of MAN's behavior on this planet. Jesus could be walking the world already if the thugs that run it had agreed.

JFK was taken to meet the RETURNED JESUS and was going to announce that the day he was gunned down. They are required by cosmic law to work thru the governments of a world. it has been a slow process on this one.

Where in the mucked up mess that is the bible does it say this world will be destroyed in 1000 years? It will not. The OLD SHIT IS BEING DESTROYED, not the world. We are going to become a solar system of light and life in fact, and this entire system will become ETERNAL, as this world is the bestowal world of Michael of Nebadon who was here 2000 years ago and is returned.

Sounds like the new Jerusalem is a space ship to me, if it comes down from the heavens.

Is It Nearing “Showdown Time” On Planet Earth?

1/11/03 - Esu “Jesus” Sananda

Good morning, my scribe. It is I, Esu “Jesus” Sananda. Be still and allow for the energies to settle. I come in the Light of Creator God. My core being expresses from the Golden-White Light of Creation, a vibration of Purity and Balance.

I must remind all ones—especially those of you who call upon the Higher Realms regularly for guidance and counsel—to be VERY diligent in clearing your space of unwanted “negative” energies. Make no assumption that you are beyond reach from the Dark Tricksters, for their “craftiness” is quite well practiced and their subtle ways are quite effective. This caution is needed moreso now, and in the coming months and years, due to the vibrational upshifting in the “aethers” (the non-physical energy space that permeates the entirety of Creation).

You and all ones on your planet, as well as all physical matter, are speeding up (vibrating at a faster rate). This increase in physical vibration is due to the energy that you, your planet, and your solar system are passing through at this time. As you continue to acclimate to these shifting energies, you will begin to notice more and more that the veil which separates the physical from the non-physical is becoming thinner. Among other things, this means that you will be able to more easily connect with non-physical entities—many of whom do not have your best interests in mind.

By saying a prayer, affirmation, visualization, or whatever you feel helps you to connect with Creator Source within, you are calling into your presence Angels, Lighted Beings, and other Spirit Guides who will act as Guardians so as to keep the Tricksters away. Without such watchful protection, you leave yourself open to whomever shows up.

We honor your choice to open-up to whatever energies you may choose. Many do not believe that they are susceptible to Dark Energies, and in a somewhat egotistical way feel that only weak individuals need the assistance of the Lighted Brotherhood. Again, if this be your belief and choice, then we shall honor your free will, and allow for you to experience whomever or whatever comes your way.

We of the Lighted Realms encourage ALL ones who read this message to make part of your daily routine affirmations (prayers, visualizations, and such) that will allow the Lighted Brotherhood to more fully assist you throughout your lives.

This can be as simple as acknowledging your connection to God when you awaken in the morning. As you stretch your arms out, see and feel the Light and Warmth (Love) of Creator God washing all over you. Before, after, or even during a meal, you may find it quite beneficial to once again acknowledge and give thanks for the Energy that went into the items from which you gain physical nourishment. And prior to laying down for your evening respite, you would be quite wise indeed to reaffirm your intent toward the Light (Light here symbolizes the Goodness and Love of Creator God), and see this Light coming from within you and expanding outward until your whole family is encompassed within its reach. Even distant family members can benefit greatly from such assistance offered on your behalf.

ESU “JESUS” SANANDAThis reproduction is from an actual photograph taken on June 1, 1961 in Chichen Itza, Yucatan, by one of thirty archaeologists working in the area at the time. Esu Sananda appeared in visible, tangible body and permitted his photograph to be taken. Visit the link above ICE for his picture taken in 1961, he returned in 1954
The games being played on a planetary scale are continuing to escalate toward a point where intervention by the Lighted Brotherhood and those aligned with this intent toward service of others (namely, the extraterrestrial “Peace Corps” who have been assisting you and your planet since the very beginning of sentient life on your world) will become an in-your-face reality. At that point, all the debates over whether or not you are being visited will come to an end.

You ones always want to know WHEN and WHERE will this intervention take place. We of the Lighted Realms will only offer to you the following: it depends on the sequence of unfolding events more than anything else. For example, those who make the decisions to use nuclear weapons can either accelerate the timeline or push it back, depending on the choices they make. We of the Lighted Realms will NOT allow your planet to be destroyed, nor will we allow the slaughter of those who need just a little more time in the schoolroom so that they can “graduate” to the next level of spiritual awareness.

The Dark Tricksters would rather destroy the entire planet just so the small percentage of individuals mentioned above WON’T experience a “breakthrough” in their awareness. This is truly the level of insanity that is being dealt with by we of the Lighted Realms.

We not only have the means by which to accomplish our mission of salvation, but we have explicit permission to intervene if and when conditions (unfolding events) warrant our assistance. Your world leaders have been duly notified of our intent and know that we mean business.

[Editor's Note: See the two messages from Archangel Michael that were received at about this same time. One is titled “Understand Who Are The Host Of God” and the other is “A New Year's Message From Archangel Michael”. The implicit warnings expressed in all these messages strongly suggests that some very desperate and dangerous plans were being considered at the time by the elite world-control crooks.]

We have, in the past, shut down entire arsenals of nuclear weapons. We have repeatedly “aborted” the many attempts to put weapons into orbit around your globe. And we have proven to the major world leaders that we will not tolerate the war games they try to play.

There are some on your place who believe that with so-called “super-secret” advanced weapons they can match the technology of the so-called “extraterrestrial threat”. To these ones we say: you must know by now, from the few craft you have recovered, that they are based on technology that is MANY THOUSANDS OF YEARS OLD from our point of view, and yet MANY THOUSANDS OF YEARS ADVANCED from your so-called “advanced” technical toys.

Those civilizations who travel among the stars only gain the ability and knowledge to do so by developing their inner spiritual connection to Creator Source. It is through this inner development that all advanced knowledge is gifted to a civilization as they mature and prove that they are capable of responsibly handling same.

To those who believe they can stop us from intervening, should the planet be threatened in a global manner by the hotheaded puppets who do the bidding of the Master Tricksters: you haven’t seen anything at all in terms of ADVANCED technology from your Space Brothers. NOTHING AT ALL!

Please note that there are many individuals and agencies who monitor both these messages and those of you who are responsible for their existence and survival. Some of what is written here is directed to these “monitors” as a message within a message.

While on the subject of a conduit for these messages—I, Esu “Jesus” Sananda, along with MANY others of the Lighted Realms, thank you who support this effort both financially as well as with many kind letters and prayers. Without your support, this conduit would simply not exist.

There is much energy “churning” in the aethers as this message is being penned. Let me remind you ones briefly of lessons offered in years past:

Prior to any physical manifestation, there is first formed an idea. This focus exists in what might be termed “mental-energy space”. As more and more emotional energy (desire) is added to the mental idea, a perturbation in the aethers occurs that begins to summon forth the means by which to coalesce and precipitate the final results in the physical realm.

Let us take, for example, an inventor who sees a need for a non-polluting form of renewable energy, and who is by background an engineer with a broad understanding of physics and chemistry. As such an individual focuses his desire to find such a source of energy (his idea), a vibrational signal is sent out, from within his being, into the aethers—in a manner not too different in concept from the Internet.

This request begins to elicit responses immediately in the form of solution ideas. The rate and clarity of the solutions is directly proportional to the amount of emotional energy (desire) behind his original idea. The longer one is focusing on any particular idea with desire, the more the Universe begins to coordinate so that events begin to unfold—such as “chance” meetings with others who are working on the same or similar projects, or funding for research seems to appear just when one needs it, or any number of “coincidental” happenings that would allow for the manifesting of the highly desired idea.

You each create in this manner, some more deliberately than others. But such is the basic method by which your perceived physical reality is fundamentally constructed.

When I say that there is a “churning” in the aethers, I am referring to what can only be described as a diverging duality in mass consciousness. It is as if “heaven” and “hell” are both trying to manifest simultaneously.

As the frequency of your planet speeds up, those who are on a path of enlightenment are racing toward an ideal world of peace, while at the same time those who are single-mindedly trying to bring about complete world domination and control are racing toward a very “dark” outcome. In short—the dark, narrow-minded ones are getting “darker”, and the enlightened humanitarian ones are getting “lighter”.

This dichotomy is causing the “churning” in the aethers wherein time itself is beginning to distort in order to accommodate the opposing energies. It is quite interesting from the point of view of the observer, as predictable outcomes continually shift as the masses, as a whole, continue to wrestle with the inner uncertainty of what exactly is taking place. The larger majority of your world sense that time is speeding up, and that there is “something” inside themselves that is not quite the same.

We of the Lighted Realms continually stand ready to answer the many calls from the hearts of these ones when their desire is clarified within their mind. Meanwhile, the Master Trickster will undoubtedly use more “shock therapy”—such as happened on September 11, 2001—in order to keep ones focused on the lower-vibrational emotional energies of grief, fear, and anger. This tactic in general keeps ones externally focused (distracted), and thus diverts ones’ attention away from what is awakening within as their consciousness continues to expand (move upward in frequency).

This sort of “shock therapy” also buys time for the Dark Manipulators, as they can ONLY function within the “shadows of consciousness” wherein conscious awareness is low. Their influence is much like the subliminal mind-control that permeates your movies, television, music, and advertisements. Likewise, they know that their time is indeed quite short, and thus they will become more and more erratic in their attempts to control from behind the scenes. In the light of exposure, these dark entities become quite ineffective, and thus go elsewhere where they can continue their chosen journey of exploring Creation.

Due to the unpredictable nature of the energies being summoned into your world, you are creating, as a planetary whole, a unique situation that warrants great study and monitoring by the many advanced beings who watch over your planet and its many inhabitants. Great care is taken on both individual levels and planetary levels to ensure that each being is given the maximum possible opportunity to grow. This unique unfolding of events also provides many an advanced being with great challenges that will inevitably cause them to stretch and grow. This cycle of expansion and growth is limitless, and each of you play a role in making it all possible. None are insignificant or without purpose.

If you are uncertain as to what your purpose is in all of this, you may find comfort in knowing that you are not alone. Even some of the ones who pen these messages for we of the Lighted Realms are uncertain of their “purpose”!

Your purpose, in a very general way, is to experience and grow. Helping others to do likewise, by being a friend, counselor, or mentor, will likely be something you should find rewarding, especially if you are drawn to this sort of information. This message is offered with you, who will be reading it, in mind. It is of a general nature so as to cause you to go within and challenge your beliefs, preconceptions, and possible misunderstandings about yourself and the world in which you live.

Behind every question you ask is a desire—a desire to UNDERSTAND more, a desire to GROW beyond who you perceive yourself to be at the present time. Follow this desire. Be passionate about seeking answers to your questions. You will not only be making your life much more enjoyable, but you WILL be fulfilling your very own unique purpose.

I am Esu “Jesus” Sananda, come in the Radiant One Light of Creator God to answer the call of the heart for insight, as well as to play my part, alongside you ones, as a co-creator of life experience.

May you each learn the wisdom of calling upon the Lighted Brotherhood often for assistance, so as to ensure that you are maximizing the growth potential of all ones, everywhere.

Much Love, Light, Joy, and Happiness to you all! Salu.
The Jesus
