Is this a corrupted organization or a safe and helpful approach to getting broader recognition and support for our mission?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Channeling Pitfalls376 views0 answers0 votesElizabeth Clare Prophet took over The Summit Lighthouse when her husband Mark L. Prophet died in 1973. He founded this organization in 1958 to spread a message combining elements of Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Theosophy. The New York Times had this to say upon her death in 2009: “In 1975, she founded the Church Universal and Triumphant, a formal religion with ceremonies and sacraments, extending the work of the Lighthouse. The religion’s teachings were derived from divine messages believed to be transmitted by the Ascended Masters, a pantheon of mystic saints and sages, among them Jesus and the Theosophist Master El Morya. Its worldwide membership was once estimated at 30,000 to 50,000 people.” What can Creator tell us about Elizabeth Clare Prophet? Did she really receive messages from Ascended Masters?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Channeling Pitfalls347 views0 answers0 votesIn the late 1980s, Mrs. Prophet issued warnings of an impending nuclear strike by the Soviet Union against the United States. More than 2,000 of her followers left their homes and gathered at the church’s compound near Corwin Springs, Montana, near the northern edge of Yellowstone National Park. There they began stockpiling weapons, food, and clothing in underground bomb shelters. Of course, the prophesized nuclear strike never happened, and the Church went into rapid decline after this, and today a much smaller remnant remains. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Channeling Pitfalls288 views0 answers0 votesMrs. Prophet experienced early onset Alzheimer’s disease at age 58 and died twelve years later. She lost her ability to write in just two years, and her ability to speak not long after that. We learned from Creator that Alzheimer’s is actually the workings of the deep subconscious responding to the self’s desire to “escape” overwhelming anxiety stemming from a lifetime of emotional wounding. Did the pressures of leading a large spiritual community, feeling responsible for their welfare, the distress and fallout stemming from the inaccurate prediction of nuclear war, and all that entailed, and perhaps having no one to turn to, no one she could lean on and draw strength from, create the mental conditions leading to her Alzheimer’s and relatively early passing? Were spirit attachments a contributing factor, or was this some other form of victimization? Is she in the light, or does she need a Spirit Rescue?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Channeling Pitfalls278 views0 answers0 votesWas all that doomsday preparation they did a kind of folly? Were her followers sold an interloper “bill of goods” and sent on a wild goose chase that arguably sidelined the movement, and neutered its genuine potential to awaken humanity? If the nuclear war she actually foresaw had come to pass, how would her community likely have fared?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Channeling Pitfalls232 views0 answers0 votesIn addition to being a channeler, Mrs. Prophet was an extremely knowledgeable theologian. She republished the entire Book of Enoch in her book, Fallen Angels and the Origins of Evil. She mentioned a work by Athenagoras, Legatio, written about A.D. 170 that had this line: “The souls of the giants are the demons who wander the world.” Prophet wrote that this teaching was directly from Enoch, the purported grandson of Adam (of Adam and Eve). Creator has shared with Karl the reality of Anunnaki spirits in limbo. Seems this knowledge has been available since almost the beginning of humanity but suppressed. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Channeling Pitfalls315 views0 answers0 votesErin Prophet, daughter of Elizabeth Clare Prophet and Mark L. Prophet, rejected the role of heir apparent of her parent’s religious movement and went on to become a professor of religious studies specializing in cults, or new religious movements, which she prefers to call them. She says the classic definition of the word “cult” is nothing more than a religious movement still within the first generation of its founding. She says one of the biggest hazards of cults is the development of a “fortress mentality.” What is Creator’s perspective on cults?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Channeling Pitfalls284 views0 answers0 votesIn the 1980s, a lawsuit involving Mrs. Prophet’s church considered accusations of coercive persuasion, hypnotic control, and brainwashing. The court found the Church liable and a significant amount of damages were awarded to the plaintiff. These kinds of accusations are troublesome because to the extent they are true, that is indeed a problem, and to the extent they are not true, this creates a potential legal landmine for religious movements to have to navigate and avoid. The case created an important precedent that could potentially target any religious movement. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Channeling Pitfalls199 views0 answers0 votesMrs. Prophet and her Church taught the “science of decrees.” The decree was the main form of worship practiced; a kind of rhythmic chanting prayer. The decrees call on Angels, Elementals (nature spirits), and the Ascended Masters to help bring about protection, wisdom, healing, and elimination of negative karma on Earth. Often decrees were used in an attempt to protect the person or church from the negative energy of people with hostility, or perceived hostility, toward the person or church. Some have concerns that this was a form of cursing and casting of spells. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Channeling Pitfalls222 views0 answers0 votesMrs. Prophet talked a great deal about angels, and how they were humanity’s appointed divine guardians, advocates, and helpers. In her book, I am Your Guard: How Archangel Michael Can Protect You, she talked about how one can set up a tube of light around oneself for protection. She relates this story: In Ghana, a man named Jacob was to die by firing squad. For hours prior he said decrees and visualized a tube of protecting light around him. When the guns fired, all the prisoners except Jacob fell dead. The soldiers reloaded and fired again, but he remained standing. They reloaded and fired a third time, and he remained unharmed. Frightened, the authorities let him go and he eventually became one of Ghana’s ambassadors. What can Creator tell us about this story?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Channeling Pitfalls301 views0 answers0 votesCan Creator tell us how Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol can help GetWisdom succeed in bringing forward divine wisdom without becoming corrupted and cult-like from outside manipulation?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Channeling Pitfalls315 views0 answers0 votesFor the majority, being well over 90%, of channelers who are unwittingly channeling imposters, are any doing this using Creator’s translator?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Channeling Pitfalls282 views0 answers0 votesA friend of mine in the 1980s told me she had learned that Sutphen was kidnapped by federal authorities and flown to an east coast facility for interrogation. They asked him what he thought he was doing, and he said, “Teaching people how to think.” They told him to stop if he knew what was good for him. “We think for them,” he was reputedly told. In his last book, Sutphen said this only, “My heroes were all willing to speak out and act in response to what they believed. They have certainly influenced the way I communicate. They got me into trouble with the establishment on many occasions.” Was he hinting about what my friend shared with me? What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Karma221 views0 answers0 votesSutphen’s last book, his memoir of 80 years, was in fact a summation of every important lesson that he learned in his highly adventurous and creative life. He helped millions of people and certainly earned more good karma than bad. That said, the one thing notably missing from his impressive collection of “lessons learned,” was the concept of “partnership with the divine and Creator.” There were hints here and there of prayer practice, but it appeared more hit and miss, and certainly did not rise to any kind of prominence in his many decades as a noted spiritual teacher and role model. How could he, and so many other advanced souls like him, have not been able to embrace this most important insight?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Karma224 views0 answers0 votesBoth Sutphen and his good friend, Richard Bach, author of the 1970s surprise bestseller, Jonathan Livingston Seagull, had their life savings and even copyrights on all their intellectual property stolen from them. The two thefts were not otherwise related. Both were left absolutely destitute. Bach’s manager stole his, and in 2011 some hacker drained Sutphen’s bank accounts, transferred his copyrights, and wiped out all the master copies of his life’s work. It took three years of lawsuits just to get his copyrights back, but everything else was gone. Can Creator share if Empowered Prayer and/or the Lightworker Healing Protocol could have prevented these evil attacks and tragedy that neither man fully recovered from?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Karma225 views0 answers0 votes
