Chapter 10: The Knowledge of Evil (Part II)
Practically the whole world knows the Cain and Abel tragedy. Cain took his brother’s Life. Leading to yet another pertinent question: From what Master do we learn the story?
From the Bible.
(Buzzer sound!) Wrong. We learn the story directly out of the mouth of our whip-cracking Master. Master Knowledge of Good & Evil. As huge a victory as Team-Light scored in the First and Second Chapters of Genesis, Team-Darkness has scored a phenomenal victory in the Third and Fourth Chapters of Genesis. First, by conning us into eating from The Tree of Knowledge of Good & Evil, leading us directly into our fatal discovery of Conscience, Judgment, Guilt, Religion and Sin. Second, through the telling (and retelling) of the Cain and Abel story (News at Eleven) Master Knowledge of Good & Evil teaches the entire primeval human race how to sin. Folks, this is exactly HOW you take it from your imagination into the REAL WORLD. Moreover, primeval man is taught how to pass Judgment.
Imagine how the discovery of the wheel must have gone viral and spread like wildfire. Before the first functioning wheel, no one had ever seen a really good “Wheel” before — nor what it could do. People started making ALL sorts of wheels. Likewise, before Cain & Abel, no one had ever seen a really good “Sin” before. Nor had anyone ever spoken about a PERSON (a fellow human) in terms of *Good* and *Evil* before. Collective-Conscience and Collective-Judgment. Our first *Evil-People* lesson:
There are *Good* people in Creation... and there are *Evil* people in Creation.
This is not God’s Judgment. This is us ASSUMING God’s Judgment.
God TURNS to *Good-People.* However, God does NOT-TURN to *Evil-People.*
Oh, let’s really juice it up:
God has RESPECT for *Good-People.* However, God has NO-RESPECT for *Evil-People.*
Submitted for your approval, “The Cain & Abel Story.” Out of this lesson comes our first worldwide collective Judgment held in tow by our Master — Master Knowledge of Good & Evil. This is our ABC lesson on *Good-People* & *Evil-People.* What does Master Knowledge of Good & Evil teach us?
Here is the story of two brothers. Cain, an Evil-fiend; and Abel, a Good and righteous man.
Organized Religion cannot bring itself to see The Knowledge of Good & Evil as a Diabolical plague; for, if it ever did, it would have no choice but to recognize itself as the Diabolical offspring of a Diabolical plague. Our Christian pilots and flight crew entirely ignore the danger — barely recognizing The Knowledge of Good & Evil as even being a negative-thing.
Oh, yeah, it’s that tree in the Garden of Eden. The one from which God forbade Adam to eat.
The Muslim and Jewish Organized Religions are no exception to the Diabolical plague. Religion and Sin is what leads directly to Law. The Jewish Patriarchs were infected to the gills with The Knowledge of Good & Evil, passing the most fatal aspects of the disease (The Law) down to Paul whom, in turn, struggled with which was greater: The Law or PERFECT Grace? Leading directly to “The Plane Crash.” Paul fought The Law and The... Law won. “Verily, verily:” The Law empowers SIN. Truly-Accepting-What’s-Been-Done-For-Us-On-the-Cross pulls the power plug on “sin,” as in termination with prejudice. Jesus spoke of good and evil only for the sake of the religious leaders consumed by IT. Moreover, ONLY from his Father’s perspective: Life being the GOOD thing... Death being the Evil thing.
The Church (as with ALL Organized Religion) is oblivious to the ongoing effect of The Knowledge of Good & Evil. The Christian Church continually EATS IT, 24/7, duped into seeing IT as a positive thing — Judging EVERYTHING in terms of *Good* & *Evil.* Especially humanity. Church dogma wallows in IT. The Church dismisses the disease: “The Knowledge of Good & Evil,” clearly named in the Scriptures, in favor of its own fictitious fabrication: The Fall of Man and Original Sin. The God’s-Honest Truth? Sin is merely a symptom. Our “need” to rule over other human beings is yet another symptom. The disease ITSELF marches triumphantly on.
There is no such thing as evil people. We are ALL created by the same Father — the same GOOD Father. None of us are any “better” nor “worse” than Cain or Abel. For we are ALL human. Our core self is no better no worse than whom we call “our brother,” standing with us. Likewise, our core self is no better no worse than who we call “our enemy,” standing on the other side of the world. The God’s-Honest Truth? We are ALL brothers and sisters. One and the same. We should learn well never to refer to any human being as *Evil.*
If a horse could be made to talk and it said, “Those horses over there are *Evil.*” What does that tell us about a horse? Worse, yet... we heard it from the horse’s mouth.
Our Divine perception is not much better than that of a horse. We, as human beings, are ill-equipped to Judge what is Truly GOOD and what is Truly Evil. Yes, we have gained “The Knowledge” that both “Good & Evil” exists. However, we lack the proper discernment it takes to know the difference.
Humanity asks: Who were Cain and Abel?
Humanity’s Master gives us ITS answer: Cain was an Evil-fiend who murdered his Good brother.
This reprehensible answer is an age-old lie told straight out of the mouth of Master Knowledge of Good & Evil. It makes no difference from whose human mouth the lie proceeds (and grimly proliferates) — an Atheist ditch digger or a handpicked Apostle of Jesus. It is a lie that comes to us directly from The Knowledge of Good & Evil. Easy to prove it’s a lie. Let’s take another step back and get a clear handle on this terrible *Evil-fiend* Cain. Before committing the act of killing his brother, Cain was a good man, right?
No! cries we — the worldwide human-consensus of CONSCIENCE — the jury. He was ALWAYS evil! Through and through! Just look at what he offered to God!
Hey, collective CONSCIENCE, chill-out for just a second. Let’s be sure and get this straight: Are you saying that Cain was always evil... because of the type of offering he gave to God?
Yes!
Seriously? Well, then, certainly, Cain must have sacrificed a virgin or an innocent child to God. Right?
No. Vegetables and fruit from his field.
Seriously? Wow. Okay. Let’s make sure we fully understand this. Cain is an *Evil-fiend* from the get-go, not because he lied, stole or murdered, but because of the type of sacrifice he gave to God?
And, Atheists wonder, “If God is real, why is God NOT right here, physically, in our midst?”
There is a Down-To-Earth answer to that question. God used to be. According to the Scriptures: Our Heavenly Father WAS on Earth. Physically with us. Walking the ground in our very midst. Even after Adam and Eve got put out of the Garden. Why no longer? There’s an old musicians’ saying: When a fight breaks out, a GOOD band (that Truly gives a shit) stops playing, pulls the plug and goes home.
The devastating result of our first sin is the physical departure of God from the face of the earth. How complicated things have become here on Earth ever since we traded in our Factory Setting for The Knowledge of Good and Evil. Even in the “simplicity” of Cain and Abel’s day. It was not merely Cain that day who was cursed from the face of the ground because of The Knowledge of Good & Evil.
Our affliction has nothing to do with “Original Sin” nor the false Judgments that proceed from such a Diabolically-Induced doctrine, such as: “The nature of ALL humanity is evil and debased to the core.” Rather... it is our WAY OF THINKING (in terms of Good & Evil) that hides us from our Father’s footsteps and from His face. Think about it. Something so simple and innocent on God’s part, leads to something so horrific and tragic on our part. God, in our physical midst; showing (perhaps His favor) (perhaps His disgust) regarding one simple, stupid, arbitrary thing... and a good man ends up killing his brother over it.
Cain was a good and godly man in every respect (save for being inspired by The Darkness that “‘God’ needs a burnt offering” — which led to homicide). Without question, Cain was a man of God. That Truth fits faultlessly. Even if the Church-Theory is correct — that ALL parties involved “know” that God finds more favor in Abel. For, if the Church-Theory (that God truly favored Abel) is correct, it would mean that Cain loved God and desired His approval so much that Cain could not continue onward, being seen as *less-Good* in God’s eyes than his brother.
Without The Knowledge of Good & Evil in the works, the event never happens in either scenario.
Science Fair Parable Number One: Without The Knowledge of Good & Evil in the works, God could have liked something of Abel’s better than Cain’s (or visa-versa) ALL day long; and, from Cain and Abel’s perspective, it would have never led to Judging “why” and homicide. How do we know that for certain? Because Cain would have been acting under his unspoiled Factory Setting. Under the mindset of IT’S-ALL-GOOD, there is no reason for Cain to take anything else but GOOD brotherly-delight in Father-God liking something of Abel’s better than Cain’s (or visa-versa): Way to go little bro!
Science Fair Parable Number Two: Without The Knowledge of Good & Evil in the works, the savage and reprehensible act of burning an animal to death as “a sacrifice to God” (the very catalyst of Abel’s demise) never happens. How do we know that for sure, that burnt-offerings would have never been concocted? Because, within our unspoiled Factory Setting, no human being would need an Organized-Reason to cut an animal’s throat wide open, just to watch it bleed and burn on an alter — ALL under the twisted “belief” that God would find this to be... *Good.*
Do you understand the significance of this lesson? This lesson comes to us directly from our Father in Heaven. He has blessed us with this lesson. We should thank Him for this very important view, from the outside of our prison looking in. For, indeed, we are imprisoned by The Knowledge of Good & Evil. We are PERPETUALLY imprisoned by IT. As the decades go on, IT only gets worse.
Despite ALL of our human advancements, still, the willful act of a man killing his fellow man is alive and well in the twenty-first century. ALL courtesy of The Knowledge of Good & Evil. That’s a fact. There are only three reasons a human being purposefully kills another human being. One): The perpetrator Judges the victim as *Evil.* Two): The perpetrator Judges it *Good* to kill the victim. Or Three): A combination of the first two Judgments. That is what leads to sin. Judgment. Piss-poor Judgment. Judgment based upon our “knowledge” (our awareness) of the concept of Good & Evil.
Without The Knowledge of Good & Evil, there would have never been the first burnt offering, the first murder, the first war, the first theft, the first lie, the first genocide nor the first crowded airliner flown purposefully into a crowded building.
Do you know where you are? Really? What tangible universe are you Living in? Go ahead. Shout it out if you Truly know. You really don’t know, do you? I will be happy to tell you. You are in God’s VERY GOOD tangible Creation.
Evil is created (imagined) within us out of absolutely NOTHING. As Jesus PERFECTLY assesses:
Mark 7:20 (The Living Bible) “It is the thought Life that pollutes.”
ALL it takes is a conscience and an imagination. Actually, ALL it takes is an imagination. For, we grow CONSCIENCE out of imagination. We define what sin is. More than for ourselves, we define it for God.
Carl, a Mature-Christian and Presbyterian minister, takes issue. “How can you say ‘we define what sin is for God’ when it is God Who gave us the Ten Commandments?”
Because, by breaking them, we redefine each and every one of them as SIN. It is always MAN defining what is and what is not SIN. This Truth is inescapable.
Listed as one of “The Seven Deadly SINS,” “Lust” is a great example of MAN'S lackadaisical characterization of what is and what is not SIN. Only one out of every twelve-thousand people commit homicide; yet, “Lust” is the “Deadly-Sin” that plagues nearly every Mature-Christian CONSCIENCE. Not a one of the Ten Commandments has anything to do with lust (sexual desire); yet, ever since day one, Judge Fleming has exacerbated MAN'S already destructive idea of SIN by adding “sexual SIN” into the equation. Henceforth it be adjudicated: Any kind of sex outside of Judge Fleming’s guidelines for having sex... is a SIN. In actuality, the Living God never said that having sex with thine own self (autoeroticism) nor that sex between two or more consenting adults is “a no-no.” Biblical-Fact: Adultery is NOT “sexual sin”; rather, it is theft-of-property “sin.”
Church-Taught Christian Bible-Makers inject the word “lust” into Jesus’ slam on the Pharisees: “Anyone who even looks at a (betrothed or married) woman with... epithymēsai... has already committed adultery with her.” The Greek word, epithymēsai, means: To covet or to want. Same as the jewel thief looks at a diamond necklace and covets it or wants it. Adultery has nothing to do with sexual desire (lust). Adultery has everything to do with wanting something that belongs to somebody else.
Judge Fleming has done his worst to convince people that sexual desire (and sex itself) — in ALL its Church-Taught “unauthorized forms” — is SIN: Sexual desire (and sex itself) is allowed only for a man and a woman so long as they have, at some point, stood before a “holy man” and had “magic words” spoken upon them. This, within itself, is the most revealing thing about sin. We can define IT any way we would like. It is the Church-Taught (not God) who define sex outside of “marriage” as “sin.” So “says” the Bible: Under Old Testament Mosaic Law, sex outside of marriage was not considered a sin:
Exodus 22:16-17 (NKJV) “If a man entices a virgin who is not betrothed (not engaged), and lies with her, he shall surely pay the bride-price for her to be his wife. If her father utterly refuses to give her to him, he shall pay money according to the bride-price of virgins.”
The adjudication (above) has absolutely nothing to do with “lust” nor “sexual sin.” It has to do with property. And, guess what? The woman is the property. The sin of adultery occurs ONLY if the woman involved is already the property of a husband. By Old Testament standards, there is no sin associated with a man having premarital sex with a virgin damsel. If kept discreet, there is no problem with it whatsoever. Should the parties involved be found out, it simply turns into a business matter — because the woman is still what? Her father’s property. The man must pay cash (the Bride-Price) to the woman’s father for devaluing his daughter’s worth by taking her virginity... and then agree to marry her should the father permit it. The woman has no final say in the matter. Even if she was raped by the man.
Deuteronomy 22:28-29 (KJV) “If a man finds a damsel that is a virgin, which is not betrothed, and he lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found, then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel’s father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife; because he has humbled her; he may not put her AWAY (not be permitted to divorce her) all his days.”
So “says” the Bible. Nice for the woman, right? She gets to marry... her rapist. She gets to cook meals ALL the rest of her Life... for her rapist. She gets to bear and raise the children of... her rapist.
Consider the rest of the Ten Commandments and the wiggle-room GODLY-MAN invents around them. Godly men define why it is NOT a sin to break any one of the Ten Commandments.
It’s okay for us to covet our neighbor’s goods… as long as our desires promote healthy ambition. (Joshua 11:14-23)
It’s okay to lie… as long as there is a greater prize, plan or principle to be gained. As in, “loose lips sink ships.” (Genesis 12:11-13)
Capitol-Felony-Armed-Robbery, Arson, Cold-Blooded-Murder, Kidnapping and Rape? No problem. It’s ALL *Good.* It’s okay to loot and pillage every home in the countryside and slaughter everyone until the woman and children are ALL that’s left. Then? You must kill ALL the male children — yes, Living children. What about the Living girls? You may kidnap ALL the virgin females (from babies on up) to do with them as you please. Sure, rape them to your heart’s content. “Why not?” say the men. Since we RULE OVER women, we may always do as we please with them! (Numbers 31:7-18)
It’s okay to steal… as long as we “believe” we have the *Good* right to do so. (Joshua 8:1-2) The Israelites killed the Hittites who stole the land from the Amorites. Then, the Israelites stole the rest of the land from the Amorites after doing what? Killing them. Judeo/Christian-Approved loophole? It’s called “The Promised Land.” Same with the United States. We killed the British who stole the land from the Native Americans. Then, we stole the rest of the land from the Native Americans after doing what? Killing them. Christian-Approved loophole? It’s called “Manifest Destiny.”
What? “Thou shall not kill?” Naw! It’s okay to kill. USA Christians will even stand up and applaud you as you take human Life — as long as you do it while you are wearing your USA solider suit.
At a big Baptist church in Arnold, Missouri, there is an entire floor (the kid’s section, no less) devoted to The Ten Commandments. The Church-Version of “The Ten Commandments” are written on the hallway walls for the kiddies to see and learn. Ladies and gents and ALL other distinguished persons, behold The Greater *Good* justification in full motion. Get this. To make sure that ALL the children know... It’s okay to kill your fellow man as long as you have a *Good* reason for doing so... “Thou shall not kill” has been changed to: “Thou shall not murder.”
Christian or non-Christian, we (humankind) define what sin is. If you Truly-Accept that smoking is a sin... then it is one. For YOU it is. If you Truly-Accept that getting a blood transfusion is a sin... then it is one. For YOU it is. Entirely psychological. We chose having The Knowledge of Good & Evil over our Factory Setting. We chose sickness over health. We chose Death OVER Life. Our own ignorant choice. Our own stupid choice. Our own careless choice. Yet, there is GOOD News. We still have a choice. The cure for ALL of what ails us is, indeed, a valid choice. A simple choice. It’s Harvest-Time.
Please... let’s FREE our heads of every stumbling block that stands in the way of PERFECT-Grace. It’s as simple as yanking weeds out of a garden. With one nice exception. You only have to yank ’em out once. Yank a “Tare” out of your mind and, trust me, it stays out. FREE your mind... and ALL-GOOD will follow. Take ALL the IFS, ANDS and BUTS to the curb. No IFS (no hypothetical conditions). No ANDS (no add-ons). No BUTS (no diminishments). In its pure form, the gift Jesus left for us is a psychological slam-dunk. Jesus calls it: Baptismo-Metanoeo — a Totally-Immersed-Change-of-Mind. What say we trash ALL the Tares and fill up our silos with Wheat? Out with the Diabolical Prime Directive (GOOD & EVIL), back to our God-Given Prime Directive: IT’S-ALL-GOOD. We have Evil here in God’s Creation because we used our power (our brainpower) to bring it here. Likewise, we have the same God-Given power to send it AWAY. How? The Jesus Concept amplifies us with Thermonuclear Power. How? By changing our psychology (our way of thinking) one person at a time... back to Our Factory Setting.
Rolland, a Baptist pastor inquires, “Are you suggesting that we lose our mature adulthood? ALL that we know? We should become morons?”
We ARE morons. We take semi-automatic weapons, march into places where people are gathered and kill as many people as we possibly can. Why? “Because people are *Evil* and so it is *Good* to exterminate them.” We march into grade schools and kill little kids. Why? “Because they will grow up to be *Evil,* and so it is *Good* to exterminate them.” We have already had two World Wars and we are moronically marching onward toward our third. Adulthood? Adam and Eve were ADULT; only, they did not think in the HOOD.
You want to be a respectable adult in Creation? If so, respect the original mindset the Living God blessed upon each and every one of us in the very beginning. Our prime directive — IT’S-ALL-GOOD. That is Wisdom. That is what the prophets are saying when they advise us to “fear the Lord.” Had Isaiah and Ezekiel straight-up taught humanity, “Everyone needs to dismiss the entire notion of ‘Evil’,” their Neanderthal contemporaries would have instantly stoned them to death. Just the opposite, each generation is taught by the previous generation to fully embrace the notion of Evil.
What should be the universal goal of today’s generation? Grab a stronghold on the handle Jesus left for us. Cancel the “& Evil” notion of our Good & Evil way of thinking. Impossible? Once you Truly embrace the What’s-Been-Done-For-Us-On-the-Cross head-set, it becomes impossible for you (as a true acceptor) to do anything Truly Evil — murder, telling a hurtful lie, hating folks, etcetera. Should What’s-Been-Done-For-Us-On-the-Cross go viral, these things will Truly become obsolete in our reconsidered, re-evaluated way of thinking across the world. Evil will exist only in the context of the surreal or the historical — movies, plays, storybooks and museums. Whoa — how can THAT... really be possible? Because Evil thrives on being consequential. The God’s Honest Truth? It is engrained within our human nature to be entirely done with things that are truly and entirely inconsequential. Granted, such a thing takes... Time... however, a lot less Time than one would imagine.
Sixty years ago (in 1966 AD), we would have thought it was absolutely impossible to live in a world without phone booths. Even in the year 2000 AD, we still had over two million of them scattered throughout the United States. Eighteen years later, in 2018 AD, we had less than 100,000 of them. Proportionately, that’s going from 100 to 5... in 18 years. In 2066 AD, the only place you’ll be able to find a phone booth is in a museum.
Much less consequential than a phone booth, Evil is old, useless, counterproductive and of no value to anyone whatsoever. For a generation that likes to cancel things, the notion of “Evil” is the most profitable thing for any generation to cancel. Do you agree? Jesus more than agrees. He left us the foolproof way to cancel this terrible aberration. Foolproof and simple.
Send it AWAY.
That is True Wisdom. And, that is True Understanding.
Job 28:28 (KJV) “And unto man he said, ‘Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from Evil is understanding.’”
To Truly-Accept-What’s-Been-Done-For-Us-On-the-Cross is to depart from Evil. To depart from Evil is to restart your Factory Setting — IT’S ALL GOOD. The cure for any pandemic is “herd immunity.” One restarted Factory Setting leads to two. Two leads to few. Few leads to many and many leads to ALL.
Of course, this is absolutely revolutionary. Well... the Jesus Concept IS absolutely revolutionary. Can we even comprehend the Big Picture — what the Jesus Concept is really ALL about? To restart humanity’s Factory Setting... is to reclaim the Kingdom of Heaven here on planet Earth.
