How many of you here have heard of J.Z. Knight? She claims to channel the spirit of Ramtha, a 35,000 year old spirit that lived in Lemuria or Atlantis. (or both.)
Like prophet L.R. Hubbard believed he channeled something as well, and told people that they had angry souls that had been brainwashed by psychologists long ago.
If we are too believe that these two prophets are out to help humanity, should not every effort and action produced by them reflect this?
Would Scientologists charge over 200 dollars for a “reading” to help you? are they being spiritually beneficial or self-beneficial?
Would Knight, build a 13,000 sq ft house on a 40 acre estate, with 120 arabian horses?
If prophets aim to make themselves kings… shouldn’t we ask ourselves, maybe this guy is a false prophet? he or she is a for profit prophet.
I believe we can apply the same rules to prophets from long ago. We know enough about all of them and their actions, to know whether they were truly out to help mankind or to empower and help themselves.
