RAM 10-046 – Foregiveness, Insights from Matthew’s Teachings
5-13-78
(Ed. Note: This reading was given upon the conclusion of Matthew. Most of the material were clarification questions from different passages of Matthew. The questions and answers have been inserted at the appropriate place in the Bible readings. These has been placed at the end of the file. There were also questions on a variety of non-bible related topics. These have been moved to the beginning of the file.)
This document touches on comprehensive discussions that touch upon spiritual insights, the complexities of karma, and the profound interpretations of biblical texts, particularly focusing on the teachings of Matthew and spiritual guidance.

Beloved Father, Mother God, Thou who art ever present, ever merciful, ever loving, ever kind, send to us now that which is Thy wisdom, Thy direction, Thy way. Through Jesus the Christ, we ask,.
Source:
Awaken within and without. Know you the law! For the law is mercy. The law is forgiveness. Through this are ye saved. Where there is not mercy, there is not that which shows the Lord. Where there is that which is not trust, ye allow not the Lord to work period if he forgive not, how can you be forgiven? Repent, repent. What is repent? Rearrange your mind into that which is the pattern, the way, the light. For if you have love, you are loved. If you have patience, you will find patience. If ye are critical, you will be judged. Then judge not, fear not. For all his fear that we have mentioned. Control the mind. Control the body. Then turn into the lord. For if you have that which is as the foolishness, the pain, the sorrow, blame not others, for it is of your own doing. And yet, turn unto the Lord. For how did he say? “Turn unto me, for my yoke is light.” Then give that which is the Lord his own, for his own is you. If you have not the Lord within yourself, then ye cannot be of the Lord. How is this? Since he is the Creator of all, it is of that of choice, pure choice you must cast aside the Lord and live without, but ye must stand in reckoning of yourself in that time of reckoning. Then be of good cheer, for us you accept the Lord, as you receive the lord, so you receive your brother your sister, peace, love, light, the Christ. We are ready for questions at this time.

Paul – material available, accepting the Shroud
Q Did Paul have the material that we are now dealing with in Matthew when he started his teaching?
S Both given to him and revealed to him, to a greater degree, causing him unrest within this entity. For that which is the preconditioning and the concepts of this entity tended at times to become as obstacles for this entity to overcome and only partially at times was overcome. For there was this interference you see quite often brought forth in the teachings or the instructions by that one period however the gist of the material was as the same as now.
Q Did Paul have access to written material about Jesus and His teachings, and if so what were they?
S he had an abundance of letters, of witnesses, even interviewed many who were at Calvary, many who had witnessed the trial period or even among the Sanhedrin were those who gaped in amazement and shuddered for that which they knew was the truth, and gave voice. Some were cruelly murdered which is, sadly, part of human nature to get rid of those who would tip the scale, who would rock the boat, who would upset the apple cart.
Q Why did Paul refuse to accept the shroud when Mary showed it to him at a time when, I understand, my soul was present? (114)
S Because the man was not significantly Christian as yet. Could not accept relics outside of the ark, but also shattered the ego. For here was something that could speak more eloquently than he had prided himself on his verbal abilities.
Bound and Loosed in Heaven and Earth
Q Even if one does accept the second coming, can a soul choose to come back over and over again to help others?
S This is correct.
Q Would you please give an example of something that is, or should be bound in earth that that’s bound in heaven, and something that should or, is, loosed in earth and then lost in heaven?
S Two examples of each. If you would be free of desire, you would be you would free it upon this earth. In one instance, let us say this is is that which is the desire for wealth, material wealth. The two ways of dealing with same is to first release it upon the earth that it may not be held to you within heaven, and the heaven within, you see, to return to face the issue. And yet, there’s that which also deals with the wealth within the earth that must be released within the heaven, lest it contaminate or drag down those who are in that which is as the earth plane, making it harder for them to resist same. Then there is that which is self desire, the desire even to be an instrument of the Lord, though it is commendable and it is starting point. If it is loosed within the instant of the necessity within the earth then that which is the opening of heaven is accomplished for others. Yet if, on the other hand, in some circumstances it is not loosed within the heaven, then it is an impediment for those within the earth. For ye then cause stumbling blocks to others. To acquire the proper knowledge of the event or when and where it is to be done, on which and what level the release must occur, put you on the text as well ye must always go within. And then do that which comes to self as if it were, or is, the only way to handle the situation. You may fail. You may interpret correctly. Results will come to you. Yet, it is a learning situation always. This is where that which of forgiveness is the essence of salvation. For as you forgive so you are forgiven. When you err, the error is forgiven, see? If you forgive that which is the misstep of thy brother, thy sister.
Barabbas represents evil, devil and selfishness.
Q Did Barabbas later become a Christian as indicated in the movie called “Barabbas”?
S Never! Barabbas is that which is the essence of the force of the destruction even as seen within other elements within the Bible, of that which is as, or to be termed the Antichrist, or the forces that are negative to the Christian or the Christ way, or that which is as the bestial part of man, or that which is the advocate of the devil, or that which is the intellect and selfishness of mankind.
Apocrypha – Didache ignored by authorities
Q (110) asks,” how valid is the accepted Apocrypha?
S very much valid to the greater extent. We will upon finishing that which is as this series of readings on each of the four gospels delve into that which is the Apocrypha and that which is as the sections as to their importance in arrangement of that which you would call the Old Testament or the sacred Scriptures.
Q This question is for (114). He has a strong recollection that when he first read the Didache it started with a prayer asking David and Jesus, our Elder Brother, to intercede with God for the one praying. The copy he has just read does not include this. Can this be explained?
S There are several instructive authorities that include this. That which is the Didache is as sometimes used in this manner; was widely spread with his introduction. Some copies of that which are the Didache, even at the original time, closed in this manner rather than opened. Toe explicit, normally the ending of the closing was dictated only by that which was as the needs in the presentation, though almost surely contained that which is the reference as given to the Elder Brother and to David.
Q Is this generally eliminated because it conflicts with accepted doctrine?
S For fear of dividing that which was the following of the Christ by confusing the issue that was already confused and clouded, even then, by the importance or place of the man Jesus that became Christed, and the place of David. For even at the time of the use, or the greater use, of this document, this directive, there were those who fought bitterly over that which is reincarnation. Did not understand, or refused to understand that David was earthly love; Jesus, divine love manifested.
Q In the copy I remember, it suggested a communal meal for the followers of the teachings of Jesus. Am I correct in remembering this?
S this also is used in other writings, however was implied in the original, directly added later and deleted again so that that which is communion, or the sacrament, would be administered by that which are as the clergy, the priests, rather than that which are the individuals upon each other and themselves.
Rituals to truly remember the Sacrifice of Jesus for today.
Q How should we remember the sacrifice of Jesus? What suggestions can be given for a more meaningful remembrance which could be used by small groups for whom the traditional church communion service has lost its meaning?
S First, it can be that which is imaging. And yet that too, should fall away. The imaging, then, can be of that which is as the Man called Jesus. It can be that which is the mental spiritual coordination of imaging that which is the man Jesus turning into that which is as the Christ, and in the benign, in that which is as love, blessing, and laying on the hands to all individuals. For others, that which is imagining the golden orb of God, the inner, white purity shining through, love and purity as an orb, a globe suspended before self and in between selves, floating, as you were, above that which is as symbolic of the ground or the earth. In the imagining for some, it is the fish, for some it is the wine, what have you, some even that which are the grapes. Where your mind travels to find the symbol, then use same, until that time when you may sit alone or with others and know the sacrament is with you. For He is the sacrament. This is called blessed. And he, then, fills you, sustains you, calms you, gives you peace if you will allow it to be. Remember you must control your mind first, your will – through same you control the body, the actions of same, the feelings, the desires, the needs. Then, as ye control, so you will allow the spirit to overwhelm, to take charge, and all is well in God’s house.
Being christed and being resurrected – meaning of each.
Q Does being fully christed and fully resurrected have the same meaning?
S No. For the Christ is that stage which must be attained to be fully resurrected there can be resurrections, but not full resurrections until ye have been christed. That is, then, resurrecting all that is of yourself, has ever been, put in perspective, and raised to that level that God would have it be.
Q Is it necessary to have physical death in regard to being chrised?
S No. For He has relinquished that for you.
Q Then the cells are resurrected as the Source has stated before, one by one, and so forth?
S All correct.
Q I assume there have been those that have been fully christed since Jesus and Mary. Can it be given as to an approximation of how many have been?
S There is only one that has arisen to that which is the total christing and has gone to Him who is the Center, God himself for there are others who are partially christed, not fully, that have done this and that, that work in many areas outside of the system. But you see, to be fully christed you must go through that which is as the material plane. There are those who will come in who have been christed, or partially christed to the ability of their level, their plane, and make that one step through at the time that it is necessary for them to do so. But we’ll use this plane as the stepping off place.
Q Well, that means then that the vast majority of us are not going to leave here fully christed, then, if I understand that.
S You who earned through this plane may be assumed by Him that is the Christ, that is fully christed through this plane by becoming partially christed through this plane for those who are through another plane must then become christened through this plane, on, through the passage that he has made. But He has Christed for you of this plane rather than for those on other planes for each and every world as you would call or term world place, must have its Christ. Fully christed? Not so. For this world acts as a funnel for that which is God in total, the forever, the unending, immeasurable, that which he cannot understand.
Q When the soul that we knew finally as Jesus left the world as Enoch and regained His stature in other planes and other places, this didn’t constitute christing, then?
S No.
Q So when he came in as Joseph he was not already Christ it. I see.
S Yes.
Q When you speak of other planes, are you Speaking of other planets in our solar system?
S We are Speaking of planes and planets. We refer to places as planets; planes are those which you would term, even loosely, etherical, astral, and so forth.
Q Then Jesus is the only One in the universe that has…
S The only One of the creation that has gone through that which is the total cycle.
Q Is it correct to say that Jesus resurrected his spirit mind and spirit body by Sunday morning, and by Monday afternoon he had resurrected his physical mind (including the subconscious mind of the body and the body physical), and then he combined the two minds and the two bodies into one?
S First, remember in the attaining then, time was forgotten. It only pertained to this earth though there was, yes, a time within this earth where it was significant to others and only significant to Love because Love had not fully brought together all that was to be brought together. Yes, in essence what you say is correct. It might be regarded as a reverse pinwheel effect, or an implosion rather than explosion, a bringing back and reuniting even in the aspect of the mother or the feminine aspect himself present at that time, bringing into balance all, then, and making aware. For at that time, you see, in his overcoming, so his totality was overcome whether, or where, the aspect being then that which was married and became what you would call He – She, or rather (and best) just Truth.
Q Well how does this relate to Mary, then, when she was raised?
S Remember you must understand that time is of this world, this place, created for the material and corkscrewed, convoluted, whirlpooled, into the time necessary, making the time of the resurrection and the time of the uplifting of Mary as one – though out of sequence in time as you see time, but incorrect sequence outside of time, in truth. Got it?
Q Can only an aspect, then, of the soul exist in this world, a full soul? Is that why Jesus is coming back as…
S Yes. You’ve got it. Correct.
Explanation of apparitions of Mary on buildings
Q What were they seeing in Egypt and in the Middle East when they thought they saw Mary?
S They are seeing the will manifested even as the term apparition has been used. How to make you understand? As you see the rainbow – is there, not there, but appears to be, though it isn’t! You are seeing an essence, a thought, a will, away. Remember it’s hard to explain even will to you people. It is hard to explain thought and make you understand when you cannot even understand light, life, darkness, or yourselves.
Q I’d like to know how come we’re so dumb!
S You’ve earned it!
Q Would this be similar to some of the apparitions referring to the Egypt thing, or the church, of a mental projection that somehow or other solidifies to the extent that it can be photographed?
S This is correct. For see, even as you are solidified thought, so thought from higher beings, so higher elements can project themselves, too.
Christianity in England – Joseph of Arimathea and Mary.
Q Is there any truth in the legends of Arimathea and Mary in England?
S No, not as Mary that ye know. But there were those who came in the name of Mary. Of Joseph, yes. There was rhyme and reason, you see, for that which you would know as Christianity started in that area before it was greatly accepted within that which you would call the Middle East – Turkey, Greece, and Italy too.
Bartholomew and the Thymus
Q Bartholomew was given as relating to the love center. Please explain further as to which spiritual center this refers to.
S That would use the body protection itself, the thymus. For it is through love that the body is balanced. It is through love that the lower elements are received by their higher elements. And this then, is that which is indicated in the endocrine system.
Q Line 13 on page 8 of reading given October 23rd, 1977, was given 9 being the material number. Line 15 on page 10 of this reading was given 8 is the material number please comment on this apparent difference.
S No difference! For in the material the ending is 9, the material number is 8. The ending of the material world and the material self is 8, thus it is also nine. See?
Q Matthew 19, verses 18 to 21, may we be told who the young man referred to was?
S Repeat please..
Q Matthew 19, verses 18 to 21, may we be told who the young man referred to was? (The rich man told to sell his possessions and follow Jesus 2 he didn’t want to, but later on he did.)
Q By the name of Elseb.
Q In reference to the reading of June the 26th 1977. During the discussion of healing by our Master and those circumventing the Law, the Source spoke of the Master having given warnings in other places and times. What other places and times was the source referring to?
S We refer especially as to that which the entity that became Jesus and then Christed, was as He who was called or termed Melchizdek, Melchezidek Melkelsidek, what have you, who gave forth warnings at that time. This is the primary time. However, that, that which could not be, even though termed, as an incarnation, even as that which appeared, called Angel, but not so. Even referred to in Daniel as an Angel within the fiery furnace, or also referred to in Daniel as the Son of Man, more correctly, see dash which gave visual warning, was as the source of interpretation as Daniel gave. The dreams were as Daniel the prophet’s contact, you see, and guidance.
Q In reading #10-30, in speaking of the people who have found God but have still elected to remain in the physical it states “they may go about as is best for them, as they know is correct for them regardless of that which is man’s understanding, regardless of that which is as the superficial.” Could we have further explanation on that please.
S those who have overcome to that degree, which even as given in the Buddhist or Hindic ways, as those who are the teachers and lie one step away, by choice remain is that which are advocates of the master of love within the earth. In their ways in their manners in their thinking sometimes they seem to deviate from that which are the paths as most would understand. Yet they know innately, intuitively, of that which is the spiritual correctness. Therefore, their actions are not directed by the appearance or by the appearance situation but the reality of that which are the forces of the individual needs of others upon themselves, acting as that which are sources of love resurrection, of that which is the spiritual qualities of an individual and the world itself.
Q In reading 10-27 on page 5, it mentions what Peter, James and John represent. What did Andrew represent?
S Andrew is that which is especially of patience and fortitude being that which hangs on, that which is as the enduring, that which is as the long-suffering.
Q Reference to the ram reading of May 7th 1978. If I understand correctly, Jesus and Mary received the feminine and masculine balance from each other during the time each was in the earth. James and John had to have a feminine aspect from their master soul come into the household to bring this balance in a given line of aspects is this kind of balance also achieved by alternating the entry into the feminine or the masculine when necessary as Cayce has indicated?
S This is correct, though normally one gender or the other is predominant.
Q Are there any other ways that this balance is achieved?
S On this plane, no.
Q On two or three occasions the source has suggested that an individual seek to help the widows and the orphans does this have a symbolic as well as a literal meaning?
S Are you not all widows and orphans?
Q On page 10, line 11, reading of January the 7th 1978, should this read ,and yet the “very words” or the “wary” words?
S The very words.
Q Thank you.
S Very meaning true, you see.
Q In reading December the 26th 1976, page 16, line 2 where it states that the Holy Spirit descended on Jesus like a dove, the source said that those who were inclined to the spiritual nature, even inclined not perfected, saw something. For understanding, what did they see?
S To their ability to see, some saw light. Some saw (and understand this) music. Some saw that which was formed. Some saw as that which is as reflection. Those who are enlightened to the greater degree, saw that which was the imprint of the bird or the spiritual imprint, see?
Q In one of the readings it says, “for all souls that are within an awakening entity have the power to thrust the mind and body of the awakening entity towards that which is the path of understanding.” Please explain “for All Souls within awakening entity.”
S That is as that which you would have is all of that which makes up the souls, part of the soul – those memories, those forces, that which constitutes the entire body even as a molecule is made of many atoms. Therefore, the soul is made of that which is as its parts, too.
Q In reading 10 – 27, page 2, line 20, the Source indicated that “the Maji served their purposes and went about their business as they were told in that life and the following times.” Were they angels?
S No. They were those who were as studied, those who had earned the position, those who had come again. And those who came, who received that which is the blessing, who met Him who was Jesus, is the Christ, with those who would understand to be on that step to pass on to that which are new and greater experiences, and yet held back that they may do that which is the conditioning of others, that which is the help, that which is as the footstool, the step upward, for others.
Q When you say held back, was that by their own choice?
S Their own choice.
Q Matthew 27, verse 19: who was the son and what was the healing referred to?
S This was as the son of Pilate who suffered from that which you would call, now, epilepsy. Was cured by that which was as the master, causing great consternation upon the wife of Pilate, you see. For there was no doubt within the mind of this lady as to the authority of the Man, Jesus.
Q Matthew 27, verse 35: may we be told if Jesus’ robe is still in existence and where it is?
S Part of the robe is in existence dash all the right side, 3/4 of the left side. It resides in that which you would term Greek Orthodox, though it is in that which is as Jordan in a monastery at this time. Best left alone however.
Q Do they realize what they have?
S they are aware of what that is that they have period yes.
Q Why do you say it is best left alone, sir?
S Or it would cause much consternation in an area that already has too much to bear at this time.
Q Line 7, page 9 of March 26th 1978 reading: please elaborate on “the cross, a cross.”
S The cross is symbolic of the man, Jesus. The cross is that which you must not dash you must understand is also the thing you must go across too. It is that which each bears every day one way or another period crosses that which is even as He, the Master took unto Himself. Which is to say and to be explicit, The Cross and a cross become one when you accept that which is as the way of the Lord it does not matter if you would say the man Jesus, or the way, or a trial of self, for they are one in reality. In other words they are, it is, an experience, a philosophy, a way of life, and understanding, a matter of worship, prayer to your God.
Q Could you describe this as a symbol which the vertical member is upward to God and the horizontal member is man’s opposite refusing to obey the will of God?
S Which can be turned to the outstretched hands summoning all to come unto Me. See?
Q Would a better symbol be the ankh with the symbol representing of God – the circle on the top?
S This is good, however, that which is as, or might be seen, or was used for many years, the Trident, see, the uplifted arms turning to God, lifting up mankind towards that which is the Way. But the symbol of selves, is not the cross. It is the lamb.
Q This symbol that was given to us at the beginning was the lamb, and the sun, the star, and the moon. We had it hanging in our living room and somebody said the lamb was facing in the wrong direction which way should the lamb face as you look at the picture?
S It is correct. Even as you have had a reading on same. Remember there are always others who judge or from their own seeing, or understanding would evaluate.
Q In reading 10-30, page 12, line 18 it indicates that the Father knows the thoughts of individuals. This would seem to be a contradiction to the statement in 10-24 reading that says God, the father, is not aware of illusion. Could you clarify this for me, please?
S Remember, even as you are in parts and each has its member in operation dash even as your lungs take in air, your brain processes impulses, your heart pumps the blood, your endocrine system balances the body. So God is as those as parts as given, that receive even as the Holy Spirit or the Christ force, what have you, do their job. They are all total God, could be always called Father – Mother, or Father God, Mother God, what have you. Though that which is indicated here is of the all present God – unmoving, unaffected, unaffected, total, knows the truth, and allows those parts of self to do the work. Reference through the source at that time was to the total force of God including, then, those members of God that do the specific works in the certain areas.
Q Online 10, Page Six of the reading March 26th 1978 how is the word council spelled following the word tribune?
S C-O-U-N-C-I-L
Q On lines 8 and 18 Page Six of the same reading, how is the word spelled that sounds like obeisance?
S This you find which gave so much unhappiness may be spelled as ye have it. For it is that which you would term colloquial or a usage in that which, in jest, was given as “Merrie old England”, even as some in here who have been influenced by the speech pattern that is British say ‘rum” when others say “room.” See?
Q Line 14, page 6 of this same reading: what is the word starting with a “T” that follows “even from the King’s or the ______”.. Two pronunciations were given. What does it refer to?
S it refers to that which is as a level of understanding, a council of people, those who are as judges.
Q Now wait a minute. Is that Tarshish or Tarsin? Yes. Yes, was it Tarshish or Tarsin, or which?
S well, it is the root of that which became tarquin, see?
Q Is this a locality?
S This is – no. It’s a name, used later as a locality or an area that became a specific name first for certain people, a line of kings.
Q On 10 – 33, page 2, line 11 it says “for you will ascend only through that which is the Christ force.” Is can meant here or is there some other meaning?
S Well, you can use the word will, or even – will would be the best.
Q In 10 – 36, page 10, line 15, the source explains the significance of forgiving seventy times seven with the an explanation of the numbers eight and nine. What is the reason for this and how does it tie in with seventy times seven?
S For those especially that have the leaning towards the numerology which is so rich a part of that which is as the learning procedure on processes and guidance, eight, once again, being that which is as the material finishing number, or the sign or significance of overcoming that which is the material, or that which is the direction or the understanding of the material – physical; and nine being the total overcoming of that which is as the spiritual, physical, mental balance – or imbalance, rather – in this plane.
Q Was there a distinction between the five that was the Jewish law – five times forgiving – and the seven suggested by Peter followed by the seventy times seven? Is there a significance in the meaning between seven and five?
S Oh yes. You see first of all, that is the five senses, the five perfected senses, the Judaism, the Hebrew, worked the more upon. It is that which is as the vacillating number. It is that which is as the choice, then, of going on to that which is the high, or the seven, even as you understand the seven centers to be.
Q In the opening portion of your answer about the numerology, are you suggesting that we should make a study of this – each one of us?
S No, but they can to consideration when it comes to you in these readings, well the questions, then, that have significance to you that you might find for others when you study in that which is as the Testaments, that which are the Scriptures, that which is the Way.
And now is that which is as the time grows too long for that which is the channel and its resources, physically, we give that which is love, blessings. We ask you to take within to yourself peace, peace, love, mercy in the name of the father and of the Prince, Jesus the Christ, ever present, ever merciful and loving – but stern. We are through with this reading at this time.
