The word “sheeple” is bandied about today prodigiously. Most people consider the word an insult. Yet no one thinks rams (male sheep) are pushovers, and more than a few shepherds have been severely injured or even killed by their flock. So this is a baseless notion that sheep are completely passive and defenseless. So when Christ was using the word “sheep” ostensibly in reference to the common people, just what was he attempting to convey?

Many people think sheep are easily led. However, the invention of barbed wire has almost entirely eliminated the need for shepherding and even rendered the sheep dog’s important job to the pages of history. Shepherding sheep is almost certainly more difficult and challenging than modern people think it is. Is there wisdom in thinking that comparing people to sheep two thousand years ago, was a lot less insulting and much more informative than it is today?

Sheep flock together for safety and community. Everyone knows there is strength and safety in numbers. The bigger the flock, the safer statistically any individual sheep is, especially if an individual sheep can maintain its position in the center of the flock. Hence the “centrist” which most people consider a wise position to be in. What is Creator’s perspective on being a “centrist” in both life and politics?

The problem with being a centrist if you are sheep, is that you essentially have no personal freedom. You MUST move with the flock or be trampled. If you travel at the periphery of the flock, you have more freedom but are at a much greater risk of falling prey to predators. It’s also true that no one can lead from the center. You must be at the periphery and in the vanguard to lead. In this troublesome world the desire to exist safely is understandable, but often derided as cowardly. As divine humans sent here to solve the problem of evil, is traveling at the center of the flock and letting others lead, so that one has increased safety from predators, a shirking of duty?

The contrast between the wolf and the sheep couldn’t be starker. Wolves are predators, sheep are herbivores. Wolves are fierce, and sheep are comparatively gentle and passive. Wolves do travel in packs, but not so tightly as to constrict freedom of independent movement. Yet wolves are SO aggressive and dangerous, that they are not used as symbols of civility and group harmony. When Christ was talking about wolves in sheep’s clothing was he implying that the goal was perhaps to be neither wholly one or the other? Instead, was the calling for us to be SHEPHERDS and not wolves or sheep? To be rather a DIVINE HUMAN rather than a mere animal?

Christ is often referred to as “The Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.” What is meant by that? Seems to be perhaps an imperfect metaphor that conveys some great truths on the one hand, but is also perhaps a corruption and disparagement on the other?

In the Bible, Romans chapter 16, verses 17 to 19, the Apostle Paul says: “I urge you, brothers and sisters, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them. For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people. Everyone has heard about your obedience, so I rejoice because of you; but I want you to be wise about what is good, and innocent about what is evil.” This passage, because it uses the word “appetite” is widely regarded by Biblical scholars as referencing “wolves in sheep’s clothing.” What does it say about the imperative to seek wisdom and overcome naiveté, especially regarding consensus narratives shaped and maintained by politicians, the media, and even the clergy?

The wolf in sheep’s clothing implies the presence and manipulation of the “evil genius,” difficult to not only spot, but just as difficult, if not more so, to warn the fellow sheep about the wolf in their midst, leading them astray. If one only takes things at face value, they will never see beyond the costume and discern the wolf inside. What does the metaphor of the wolf in sheep’s clothing tell us about not trusting the obvious?

In praying for discernment, we are, perhaps sometimes unwittingly, asking to see the unpleasant more than the pleasant, and for help identifying the wolves in sheep’s clothing in our midst. Can Creator share how prayer for discernment and the Lightworker Healing Protocol can help us develop the capacity and the needed strength to both see the wolves in our midst and do something truly effective about them?

The Ascension of Humanity is a forecasted potential event discussed widely in many circles. But the ascension of individual humans is not new. Christ ascended following his resurrection, and his mother Mary was reported to have ascended as well. Can Creator explain how ascension differs from ordinary death and transition to the light?

In the Star Wars movie series, we see upon the deaths of Jedi such as Yoda, a “fading” of the physical body. Where when one imagines the ascension of Christ was a living Christ dematerializing. The common theme here is that the physical body goes along. Creator has shared that the Star Wars series was heavily divinely inspired. Can Creator share what divine lesson was being shared or attempted with the fading of Yoda’s body upon death?

Angels such as Archangel Michael possess the ability to materialize in the physical and perform physical acts that would not appear angelic to ordinary humans. Yet they belong to a different species of spiritual being than the divine human. Furthermore, Creator has shared that the angels were created to serve the divine human and that the potential of the divine human is greater. The ability to materialize and dematerialize at will seems pretty complete. Can Creator help us understand how an ascended human is a potentially more advanced spiritual being than an Archangel such as Michael?

Were Jesus and Mary both already ascended or enlightened humans who simply returned to pursue a life mission of great importance, and returned to the divine realm in a fashion normal for a fully enlightened human, or were their respective ascensions one time events never before achieved, and never again in need of repetition for those two individuals?

We’ve been told the ascension of greater humanity was an all or nothing event. We all ascend, or none ascend. Why did ascensions of rare individual humans that were exceptions to this reality occur in humanity’s past?

We were told by Creator, that Gaia’s own ascension is tied to human ascension. If humanity fails to ascend due to annihilation at the hands of the Extraterrestrial Alliance, what then is Gaia’s future? Must the spirit of Gaia look forward to yet another “kalpa” (universal cycle) to essentially be re-created as a new planetary body, and hope to attain ascension then? Would a renewed attempt in a future kalpa be tied to a renewed attempt at the divine human experiment?
