“Columbus was an Abraham, for he went out not knowing whither he went. Columbus was a Moses, for he endured as seeing Him who is invisible. Only the man of faith is the man of power. Only he who can see the invisible can do the impossible. God grant that to-day in that bark we may be wafted by God's blessing, and may land at last on the shores of Heaven, where we shall sing a sweeter Te Deum than that which awoke the echoes on the soil of virgin America, or those amid the splendors of the court at Barcelona.” MenMayLastsAmericaHeavenCan DoKnowingImpossibleSeeingLandHe ManBlessingCourtInvisibleSoilGrantsShoreNot KnowingEchoesVirginsMosesAbrahamSplendorBarkColumbusBarcelona Author:Robert Stuart MacArthur

“God said to Abraham: "Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto the land that I will show thee." God says to man: "First, get you out of your country, that means the dimness you have inflicted on yourself. Then out of your birthplace, that means out of the dimness your mother inflicted on you.

They were later called the Hebrews because of the valleys that they came out of. The alchemy that they saw was a transformative power within the individuals to affect the "out there" reality - and that, of course, is the basis of shamanism and is the basis for most magical and so-called Third World belief systems.” PeopleWorldMayRealityCoursesIndividualBeliefSawsMagicLandRootsThirdsBasesIraqValleysEgyptMagicianAbrahamAlchemyFlocksThird WorldHebrewBelief SystemsShamanism Author:Fred Alan Wolf
