[daniel1212]

It sounds like a word salad of new age guru stuff to me. I am not sure, of course, but this so called higher level of consciousness, might refer to the opening of the third eye. I understand it’s NOT a good idea, to open the third eye. Your thoughts?

And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead? To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no [true] light in them. (Isaiah 8:19-20)

[Big Red Badger]

Agreed
Wizards that Peep and mutter....
.
If I don’t have a thought that comes with
a reference to our Bible it’s just me.
Then I’m up for corrections From scripture or others with wisdom About scripture.
The enemy is good at Deception.
I want to be God’s Friend but not at the expense of gaining it through some other wicked path.

Yes, daniel1212, as it should be also in admonishment to the wrongly speaking worldly advisers of our day.

It was pointedly enunciated by God Incarnate primarily to His personally chosen disciples (but through them also eternally to the whole world of the First Adam's descendants) in an excerpt from His "Sermon on the Mount" (Matthew, 6:30-34, AV translation, His greatest imperative command highlighted and personally notated by myself):

³⁰Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?  ³¹Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?  ³²(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.  ³³But

^{at all times constantly be}seek^ing ye first the kingdom^(kingship) of God, and his righteousness;

and all these things shall be added unto you. 

³⁴Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself.

Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. 

And so it ought to be imprinted upon our slumbering or wakeful "consciousness," whether "lower" or "higher," to have one's Christian mind and heart and will focused on pleasing our Creator and Master, and thus to continually receive all His gracious benefits.

JESUS IS LORD, JESUS IS MY SAVIOR.. These are my words.

1 Corinthians

The Gifts of the Holy Spirit

12 Christian brothers, I want you to know about the gifts of the Holy Spirit.

You need to understand the truth about this. 2 You know that before you were Christians you were led to worship false gods. None of these gods could speak.

3 So I tell you that no one speaking by the help of the Holy Spirit can say that he hates Jesus. No one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the help of the Holy Spirit.

The Kinds of Gifts

4 There are different kinds of gifts. But it is the same Holy Spirit Who gives them.

5 There are different kinds of work to be done for Him. But the work is for the same Lord.

6 There are different ways of doing His work. But it is the same God who uses all these ways in all people.

7 The Holy Spirit works in each person in one way or another for the good of all.

8 One person is given the gift of teaching words of wisdom. Another person is given the gift of teaching what he has learned and knows. These gifts are by the same Holy Spirit.

9 One person receives the gift of faith. Another person receives the gifts of healing. These gifts are given by the same Holy Spirit.

10 One person is given the gift of doing powerful works. Another person is given the gift of speaking God’s Word.

Another person is given the gift of telling the difference between the Holy Spirit and false spirits.

Another person is given the gift of speaking in special sounds. Another person is given the gift of telling what these special sounds mean.

11 But it is the same Holy Spirit, the Spirit of God, Who does all these things. He gives to each person as He wants to give.

AND

I BELIEVE (AND KNOW) THAT JESUS WAS BORN IN THE FLESH (My Words)

1 JOHN 4

“Test the Spirits

4 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world.

2 By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, 3 and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you heard was coming and now is in the world already.

4 Little children, you are from God and have overcome them, for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

5 They are from the world; therefore they speak from the world, and the world listens to them. 6 We are from God. Whoever knows God listens to us; whoever is not from God does not listen to us. By this we know the Spirit of truth and the spirit of error.”

Think about these scriptures... Pray and meditate on them. Invite the Holy Spirit into you to help understand and teach you.

Many of you folks sound just like the Pharisees. Your words are with judgement and without Love. You would not know Jesus if you fell over Him. Like the Pharisees, your words fall upon deaf ears and are not heard above. It’s no wonder that the Holy Spirit has passed by you as you are so full of your own importance that you have no room for God.
