This document is a detailed analysis of John Chapter 3 from the Bible, focusing on its spiritual and metaphysical interpretations. It covers Jesus’ conversation with Nicodemus about being born again, the concept of spiritual rebirth, and the profound spiritual implications of faith and salvation. The material delves into themes like divine truth, spiritual enlightenment, and the transformation of the human soul.
John 3:1-8
There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: the same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, “Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.” Jesus answered and said unto him, “Verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” Nicodemus saith unto him, “How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb and be born?” Jesus answered, “Verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, ‘Ye must be born again.’ The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.”
S Children, here you have that which is the accepted idea of religion, or that which is as the established religious thought, and then that which comes forward as representing, finally, seeking in the ignorance, in the spiritual darkness (as night), coming to that which is the Light, the Truth, and the Way, seeking and truly wanting to know that which is the truth. For true religious thought, even though steeped in that which is tradition and man’s interpretation, does have that which is the seeking of the truth, and the longing for the truth, within it. Here, Jesus, even as to you who seek, spoke: saying not only must mankind face that which is reincarnation, which is that which brings back the entity over and over again, but there must be a rebirth of thought, and the spiritual truth within an individual, the acceptance of the Holy Spirit, that the Christ is present and God is the Creator. How mankind longs for the simple answer. Yet that which seems so complex is simple. For you have been given a choice. You must make a choice. You cannot cry out, you cannot bargain, you cannot excuse yourselves, you cannot rationalize yourselves. You must face fact and must face that which is duty. And you must face that which is the choice to be made inside of yourself – not by others, not by the Holy Spirit, not by the Christ, not by God. You have that gift from the Creator which is selection. However, you use it, it is based upon your own thinking, your own acceptance. Hold it within yourselves. Use your knowledge and be wise – and make that choice. For it is your free will.
Q Is the birth of water, the birth of thought in the mind, the ego, the renunciation of sin, sinful ways, and the choosing of the righteous path – that being in essence, the first birth and the second birth being the birth in spirit through meditation?
S This is by selection, you are correct. By your selection, through that process.
Q “The wind bloweth where it listeth” and the rest of the verse, is thus saying that the spirit filled person, one who is born of the spirit, is wholly spontaneous, not instinctual but intuitive, and acts from moment to moment in this spontaneous fashion, not in preplanned fashion through the mind or this nature?
S And further explained in John 14: l-9, especially 1-5 to give ever more light to that which you have added.
Q Is it possible, really, to live that way in our society today which is so intellectually oriented? We don’t have the community existing today as the Essenes did with their 400 years of preparation.
S Yes. By choice you can. We would enlighten you further when the time comes, but we will give you, even as has been given before – if you would read John 14, 15, 16 and 17 as given by Cayce, or through Cayce, and study it. For here are all the answers to the question you have given. It is the promise and the promises of God the Father, God the Mother. It cannot be denied. They will not be rescinded. It was spoken for you, as each individual is. And we will enlighten you on those promises, phrase by phrase, sentence by sentence, promise by promise, love by love. It is your hope. It is you cross. It is that which will lift you up and carry you forward. It is your resurrection. It is your heaven. In short, it is Jesus the Christ giving to you the love of God. If you doubt that you can live in this world today because of those forces as we see them of negativity, the world thought, selfishness, then read that which is given.
John 3:9-17
Nicodemus answered and said unto him, “How can these things be?” Jesus answered and said unto him, “Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up; That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.”
S Nicodemus is representational here of the trained thought, the trained mind patterns that you find not only in the scientific world but among the so-called theologians, or religious understanding as seen and experienced by mankind. How many ministers, priests, or rabbis would be appalled at a resurrection, or a re-coming of Jesus the Christ in these times? How many would find that which are reprehensible things about Jesus as to their training? For you, yourselves, have been trained, regardless of how you are aware of it, not only by the many lifetimes you’ve experienced, but by that which saturates your mind daily from the time you were born ’til this time. Therefore, when the religious thought strives to see reason in that which is the spiritual regrouping, the spiritual overcoming, the spiritual pouring forth from within, there is bound to be that which is skepticism, doubts, fears that arise from that which is traditionally taught and learned by the aware mind–even as Jesus gave to Nicodemus the lesson, and Nicodemus representing that which was all the learning of Israel, with the background of the prophets behind him. The thought pattern could not accept that which was the truth because it did not believe. Once again, Jesus the Christ is giving you the lesson to be reborn, to become aware, to become the spiritual personage that you are meant to be. You must believe. You must find that which is the fourth step, or acceptance. Nicodemus, the man, trained his lifetime in the prophets, in the laws, in the miracles of God, knowing full well that Moses raised that which was the kundalini (if you would have it that) within himself and gave to Israel meditation–couldn’t understand or accept the fruit(s) of meditation which was the Christ, which was represented in Jesus, and doubted. But Nicodemus represents mankind in totality. For here and there, especially among the Eastern peoples, there are those who understand what meditation is all about. But how few and far between, even among them, are those who accept the spiritual meaning and message.
Q In verse 11, why does Jesus use the plural “we” when speaking to Nicodemus?
S For Jesus was speaking as that which was the mouthpiece or servant of God.
Q In verse 14 we have a somewhat change. Moses lifted up the serpent so the Son of man is ready to be lifted up. Did this imply that Moses did, as far as he went, by occult powers, or his own doing, whereas Jesus was taking a different approach?
S Moses, being taught in Egypt, and also enlightened by God’s own action and word (the word being that which was Jesus before Jesus became) in that which was the understanding of the psychic or psychical powers, raising that which was the forces within self through those centers to bring forth the Power, the Word and action of God. Jesus was the Word, is the Word and Power – need not raise the powers as others. For that was perfected, is perfected, has been perfected. Therefore, there is a world of difference. For one was man bringing forth the power as only man can, the other being man in tune with God, God with man and the power, One, needing not to be raised but ever present, ever useful, ever loving. [10-87]
Q What does “only begotten Son of God” as mentioned in John 3:16 and elsewhere in the scriptures mean?
S This is the undivided soul. This is that which is created by God from whence all others should have come.
Q Will the undivided soul, from whence all other souls have come, be again an undivided soul?
S Yes.
Q What is the correct terminology for the undivided soul or entity?
S You’re digging deep now, for the true undivided soul entity does not exist at this time. The master soul, or that which is the greater soul (which is a better term) is divided or fractured into the multiplicity of souls as represented, you see, in aspects within and without of this plane. If as given, the truth is for each individual and not for the masses, you must understand there is a kaleidoscope of meaning to that which would be as master soul, undivided soul, et cetera. For then, in truth, it must be considered God.
Q Under what conditions does the greater soul divide into aspects?
S First to give birth to that which are the waves known as individual entities, or in this case, as human, or that which involves the human body, mind and spirit. It is a learning device, a creative device, and this is why the division. [10-108]
Q Will you please explain the difference between the terminologies “Son of man” and “Son of God”?
S “Son of man” is that which manifests itself through, all the way through, the scriptures. Ezekiel is often quoted, or in the scriptures quoted, as talking about being the son of man as God directs his attention towards things. “Son of Man” is that which is a spiritual being in this case. “Son of God” is that which is a manifested spiritual being rather than a developed spiritual being in this plane.
Q Please explain manifested spiritual being…..
S Manifested spiritual being is that which–there are two kinds of manifested spiritual beings. One that manifests itself through the actions, the seeking of one within this plane, becoming then a growth, a thing achieved in this plane. A manifested spiritual being from that which is the God’s level, or the spiritual level, is one who has earned the way to be anointed, come back as a spiritual being, rather than achieving it at that time in a plane, as the other.

We have that which is the Light, the Truth, and the Way….. Let no one turn aside from that which is the truth of their being. Select that which is the Path, that which is the Glory, that which is the life. We have that which is the promise and that which is the life. We are here and we are ready for this reading.
John 3:18-21
“He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.”
S Truthful things are the Christ in motion. To do those things that break you from that which is the dark into the light, you must act and be as that which is a part of faith. You have been given the four foundations as to that which is to open selves up. It is mankind’s option to choose the duty or themselves. It is complicated, it is simple. For if you do not put God first, you cannot ever succeed. For as we have given before through this channel and others, man has the selection to be either blown away to nothingness, or to become that which is as gods. The choice is yours – darkness which is nothingness or light which is as gods. Your very thoughts, your very deeds must begin as if you are on that which is a ladder, that which is stairs: step-by-step, day-by-day, action-by-action. You cannot take an elevator. You cannot bypass it. It’s work. But it may be joyous work, if you would have it so. If it is difficult for you as individuals to believe in a singular God, a God of spirit, and not shaped in the visual image as you can see man, then visualize that which is Jesus the Christ, even as He gave, though meaning the spirit and the actions. See it in that which are the physical features. If you have seen me, you have seen the Father.” This may personalize that which is the spirit, or the spiritual for selves. You must build the faith, and know the joy, the love, the peace that is of the Christ when you dedicate yourself, even to the smallest degree, towards the path as blazed by Jesus of Nazareth. You again have the choice – prayer, meditation, and actions.
Q What does the “only begotten Son of God” mean?
S This is the undivided soul. This is that which is created by God from whence all other souls have come. [10-38]
John 3:22-30
After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judaea; and there he tarried with them and baptized. And John also was baptizing in Aenon near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came and were baptized. For John was not yet cast into prison. Then there arose a question between some of John’s disciples and the Jews about purifying. And they came unto John, and said unto him, “Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou barest witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all men come to him.” John answered and said, “A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven. Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him. He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled. He must increase, but I must decrease.”
S You have the confusion, here, of the mind. You have that which confronts the individual. For Aenon is that which typifies the mind which one might even say was in a state of disruption or even drunkenness from the mixture of the awakening and the feeling of the joy, and that which it is telling itself is real and not real. You have the peace which comes to the mind that lies near the spring. You have the crying out within yourselves from that which is the mind, as seen as the subconscious mind. For remember, the subconscious mind can lead you astray. And that which is the conscious mind calling out to the intellect, here as John, calling out, “What is coming? What has happened? What is right? How can you be less than the other?” And John, the intellect, you see, now getting rid of that which are as the stumbling blocks, which is the individual personality as seen as the most important (which must occur within yourselves), putting the intellect into the order the intellect has been created for. Often, we have given to you that the intellect is your devil. It is your demon. It is your downfall. But, chastened, cleansed, motivated by the will and by the actions of the spiritual urgings, puts aside the desire and says the “I” as the personal thing must become lesser, while the I AM which incorporates the spiritual within the selves, becomes the greater. This is the path that occurs in the true search in that which is contemplation, where the intellect is used to the proper side; prayer, which is the cleansing force (which is used in conjunction with contemplation, which in itself is a search) and meditation, which arrives at the I AM, brings forth the faith, the acceptance, the belief – and the search has been made correctly.
John 3:31-34
“He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all. And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth; and no man receiveth his testimony. He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true. For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him. “
S There is no way to measure the spiritual forces that lie within each and every individual. For the Christ sits in His throne within yourselves. Here is that which is given. You have the seven centers within your body. You have heaven which is the pituitary. You have that which is above mankind which is the pineal body. And you have that which is the earth, which is the gonads, or even that which would be seen as the Leydig center. You must spiritualize by learning to use and put into conjunction that which are the correct methods within the body, using those which are the endocrine system as one, that the throne of the Christ may be activated. And mankind rarely listens to that which is the Christ force within. But the individuals that search shall find. They may not believe they have heard, but the subconscious and elements of the conscious mind hear, and the body hears, and all react. There are times when mankind hears but does not believe. And there are times when mankind hears and believes. When you accept that which is God, by faith even more than by the actions of God, then you are the greater. And yet, acceptance by any means is as a wonderful pearl. Let your minds, the intellect turn back that which is the negative within yourselves, turn back that which is the worldly self, and become the lesser and the tool of the spirit that lies within. And only by practicing that which is contemplation, prayer, and meditation will the actions be (as we have seen through Jesus the Christ) the actions of God rather than the actions of selves (however well motivated – fall short).
Q In what manner is the endocrine system to be activated?
S In that which you have studied before in the raising of the forces within self from the lowest to the highest, one through the other, unless you are one of those that are nearing attunement – that which is the inlignment or alignment of the centers occur by that which is the merest thought. [10-87]
Q Do the hormones that are produced by the various elements or glands of the endocrine system have any bearing of the achievement of true meditation?
S Well, this is a yes and no. For most, yes. For ninety-nine out of a hundred, yes. To balance the endocrine system correctly for meditation – even that split second of meditation – the hormones must flow correctly, even minutely, but correctly. This is why it has been given to some that for damage, surgical repair or because of illness or malfunction, meditation should not be attempted. For others their lives (remember on more than one level – bodily, mentally, spiritually on levels) complete endocrine systems. Those steeped in meditation and the understanding and belief can make the transmission bypass that of the physical endocrine system through that which is seen as the spiritual system that would function more or less through that which are other levels surrounding the body, or from the causal to that which is the higher plane, rather than that which is on th lower environs. [10-88]
John 3:35-36
“The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand. He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.”
S Each and every individual is the son. For if you believe in Him, He believes in you. You are the son, you are the first-born, you are the chosen – but only if you would have it so. For the promise has been given through Jesus the Christ, that He and thee are one, and He and the Father are one. Therefore, you are part of Christ, the First, the Word, the Son, which puts you as part of God. That which is the wrath is the destruction of the personality and the taking back into that which is God, the spirit to be used as spirit force. And understand this: the spirit force is much like that which you have witnessed to a degree at this time in the form of lightning – in itself a tool, a messenger, an action, but not a personality – only doing that which it is programmed to do as part of the life force. For that which is the lightning effect gives the stimulation to that which is the earth itself. Even as that which is food and drink stimulates the body cells in the individual human and that which is the Christ force, or the Holy Spirit, gives strength and food to that which is the spiritual nature or the soul force of an individual.
