"when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did" - Threefold Souls Going to the Hells Nowadays

Around Tokyo

Threefold Souls Going to the Hells Nowadays  

Thee is traditionally a thought called promotion of poor and pure life in Japan. 

This thought resembles the teaching of the Lord Jesus Christ to encourage poor, pure and pious life.  Indeed, traditionally Japanese have thought that money is something dirty and menial.  However, modern Japanese look loving money like anybody in the world.  But, as Japan had been governed by the samurai (warrior) class for hundreds of years but not by the merchant class, the thought of respecting poor and pure life once prevailed deeply in the Japanese society.    

To understand the Japanese culture, you have to appreciate the thought of promotion of poor and pure life.  And, to understand the Lord Jesus Christ, you have to appreciate His teaching of encouragement of poor, pure, and pious life.

Indeed, if you live according to this Jesus' teaching, you will never sell your soul to Satan so as to get money and acquire wealth.  However, modern science and technology have introduced very convenient, comfortable and pleasure-producing environments.  To have such life, people need and want money.  And, to get money and acquire wealth, people do not mind selling their souls to Satan.  So, this human world has come under Satan's influence.

This trend seems to have been intensified since the Industrial Revolution launched in the late 18th century in England.  But it should be noted that Isaac Newton who lived in the early 18th century predicted that the material civilization should collapse around 2060.  What's more, Swedenborg who was allowed to see the spirit world in the 18th century wrote that the Last Judgement was carried out in the spirit world in the 18th century and its effect should appear in the 21st century or so in the human world.

Indeed, modern people measure the global temperature rise in comparison to the global temperature in the world before the Industrial Revolution.  This Revolution should be the starting point of rise and collapse of the modern human material civilization.  And, the God allowed Newton and Swedenborg to deliver warnings to the mankind just before the Industrial Revolution.

In addition, according to an unusual Japanese who claimed that he had seen and entered into the spirit world for more than 40 years since he was a late teenager, human souls who go to the hells have increased threefold compared to those who went to the hells 100 years ago.  It is unknown why he was allowed to see and enter into the spirit world like Swedenborg in the 18th century.  He is an ordinary man.  But he once earned about 30 million dollars through his real estate agency business.  He wrote that he lost a half of the amount of money due to falling to victim to a scam and he spent the rest of money for his volunteer activities.  Indeed, he must live a poor and pure life nowadays after writing a few books on his experiences in the spirit world.

What has concerned to me is that it was 100 years ago that the Holy Mother appeared in Fatima, Portugal, to deliver warnings to people through little children.  The children told that the Holy Mother lamented so many souls going to the hells after death in this world.   

Anyway, it is no wonder that a Japanese who loves poor and pure life is allowed to see the spirit world although outwardly his life looks foolish.

John 6, King James Version
11 And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.
12 When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.
13 Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.
14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.
15 When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.

"and continued all night in prayer to God" - Light and Minds Linked with the Spirit World

A Park around Tokyo

Light and Minds Linked with the Spirit World 

The speed of light is constant if observed and measured by anyone moving at any speed.  This is called the principle of constancy of light velocity.  But, it suggests that light is an entity not in this material world but in the spirit world.

The relationship between this material world and the spirit world never changes no matter if a man in this material world moves at any speed in this material world.  Heaven a man imagines in this world at any speed never moves.  If a man imagines Heaven while walking or in a jet plane flying fast, Heaven never moves.  Likewise, light never changes its speed even if observed or measured by a man walking or in a jet plane flying fast in this world.  This means that light is essentially a phenomenon in the spirit world but its shadow is projected from the spirit world to this material world.   

Moreover, according to Einstein, energy (E) in this world can be expresses as E = MC^2 with mass (M) of a material object in this world and square of light speed C^2 that is a phenomenon in the spirit world.  This equation means that a phenomenon in the spirit world, which is light (C), can influence this world by delivering material energy (E) through a material factor of mass (M).  

In addition, there is another special phenomenon in this material world that is called the human mind that has no mass like light but works at the light speed or more.  So, it is natural to think that the human mind has some relationship with the spirit world like light.  The speed of the mind work never changes even if a man moves at any speed, walking or in a fast jet plane, like the speed of light.  And, as light has a relationship with energy in this world, the human mind can have a relationship with energy in this world.

So, a man with supernatural power or spiritual power to cause a paranormal phenomenon should be able to put his mind in a special state.  Then, his mind should be able to work on a material object to deliver energy like E = MS^2 with S as a spiritual quantity of a state of his mind.  But, this S, namely the spiritual quantity of a state of the mind, should vary according to each man.  The higher one's S is, the more he can perform a miracle.       

So, some people should be born with high spiritual quantities of their minds.  Others might try to enhance their spiritual quantities of their minds through ascetic training or religious training.  This is why there were some Buddhist monks or Shinto priests in Japan who performed miracles with their spiritual power.  And, people like Yuri Geller should have special constitutional spiritual ability with higher S in their minds.   

However, it is not yet clear how to measure the spiritual quantity of one's mind.  None can see how pure or great other man's mind is spiritually.  An outwardly poor, little, and weak man might have a very pure or great mind spiritually.  He might be able to cause a miracle like the Lord Jesus Christ.

Anyway, light is an example of phenomena that links this material world with the spirit world.  And another example should be our minds or souls.

More importantly, it is assumed that this material world where we live was created from the spirit world through words and notion of the God who must have used spiritual energy, light, and His mind work. 

Indeed, the Gospel reads as follows: And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not (John 1).  The material world should be dark without light from the spirit world.  The mankind should live in darkness without a spirit/soul coming from the spirit world to generate the human mind in the material world.

Luke 6, King James Version
9 Then said Jesus unto them, I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful on the sabbath days to do good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy it?
10 And looking round about upon them all, he said unto the man, Stretch forth thy hand. And he did so: and his hand was restored whole as the other.
11 And they were filled with madness; and communed one with another what they might do to Jesus.
12 And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.

"there abide till ye depart from that place" - Can Spiritualism Save the World?

 

A River around Tokyo

Can Spiritualism Save the World?

There are many who believe in the afterlife or the spirit world.  But, this world has not been improved.  Why is not the world improved while so many people believe in the afterlife or the spirit world?

The answer is that most of such people still want material happiness in this world even if there is the afterlife or the spirit world.  They think that their being materially happy in this world will not  hinder their enjoying happiness in the afterlife or the spirit world.  In other word. they think that they can be happy in this world and also in the afterlife or the spirit world, while our Lord Jesus Christ declared that the rich could not be accepted in Heaven.

Indeed. convenience, enjoyment, and pleasure the material civilization in this world gives people are so strong.  Therefore, people should try to enjoy them as much as possible while they are alive in this world.  However, the more people purchase material happiness, the less they pursue spiritual happiness promised in the afterlife or the spirit world.  In one case, a successful, rich, and elite man thought that he would see a god in the afterlife who gave him such fortune in this world.  But, the god he would meet in the afterlife or the spirit world should be Satan.  

In most cases, for a man to be socially successful and rich in this world, he should neglect poor and unlucky neighbors and lose fears to the God.  Instead, he should pursue money and revere wealth as a god, while money is another form of Satan.  Put simply, rich and elite men finally come to worship Satan as a god.  That is why the Lord Jesus Christ said that men should take money or the God.  Those who choose money that is another form of Satan over the God should be naturally rejected in Heaven.

So, a religious man who even believes in the existence of the afterlife or the spirit world but chooses money and wealth or convenience, enjoyment, and pleasure in the material civilization over the God at the bottom of his mind should go to the hells after death in this world.      

According to Swedenborg and other special spiritual people who have been allowed to see the afterlife or the spirit world while living in this world, only those who really love neighbors and the God are allowed to enter into Heaven regardless of their religions or status in this world.  Being altruistic seems to be essential qualification to be admitted into Heaven.      

Indeed, compared with spiritual happiness to be given in Heaven, any material happiness in this world should be nothing.  If people should realize this truth, none would pursue material happiness by neglecting poor and unlucky neighbors and ignoring the teachings of the God and the Lord Jesus Christ.  Yet, most of people are easily brainwashed by Satan, so that they pursue money and wealth to enjoy convenience, enjoyment, and pleasure in the material civilization, even if they believe in the afterlife or the spirit world.

For this reason, the Lord Jesus Christ said that if a repenting rich man came back from a hell to this world and told his families and friends not to pursue material happiness, money, and wealth in this world, it should be meaningless, since his families and friends could not abandon convenience, enjoyment, and pleasure in the material civilization.  The desire for enjoying material happiness is so strong.

So, spiritualism alone cannot improve this world.  It should be backed up by love to the God and neighbors or the teaching of the Lord Jesus Christ.  Otherwise, if the fear for the God became stronger than material desire, this world might be saved with more spiritual people backing away from money that is another form of Satan.

Mark 6, King James Version
7 And he called unto him the twelve, and began to send them forth by two and two; and gave them power over unclean spirits;
8 And commanded them that they should take nothing for their journey, save a staff only; no scrip, no bread, no money in their purse:
9 But be shod with sandals; and not put on two coats.
10 And he said unto them, In what place soever ye enter into an house, there abide till ye depart from that place.
11 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.
12 And they went out, and preached that men should repent.
