THE GREATER WORLD CHRISTIAN SPIRITUALIST CHURCH
THE ZODIAC MESSAGES
"EARTHLY POWER AND WHERE IT TAKES MAN"
An extract from an address given by the celestial messenger
'Zodiac', (the unnamed scribe of the Bible and a teacher
in the Temple of Jerusalem at the time of Christ),
at Ruislip, Middlesex, on Friday, 9th December, 1949
"...Yes, and I would carry your mind on to another
aspect, and that is in regard to Judas. Now Judas was
a fairly common type in that nationality. He was ambitious,
he was most enthusiastic and he was possessed by an
idea which he wanted to carry through at all costs.
Judas was not an evil man; he was just an inexperienced
one. When Judas listened to the Master and heard His
words of wisdom and saw the miracles He performed,
he wanted Him to have earthly power, so that those
with authority, those who disbelieved in Him, should
be forced to see that the Man Jesus was stronger than
them all.
"Where did his mistake come in? It is not wrong
to be enthusiastic, it is not wrong to want to show
that miracles are possible when a soul is released
from self. The one great failing in Judas - and it
is common still of the race today - was his secretiveness.
If only Judas had spoken to the other disciples of
what was in his mind, the mistake might never have
happened. But Judas kept his counsel; he thought he
knew better than the rest, he thought he could force
Jesus to come out into the open, and show His power
and become ruler over those who despised Him and wanted
to put Him to death.
"Children, the lesson within this story is there
for each and everyone. There are many people who are
positive that they know better than those who are more
experienced. They set their minds on doing a certain
thing, and because all the planning goes on in the
physical mind - for they do not consult those with
experience - sometimes they are used to bring much
sorrow upon others, and even to bring despair to those
who have not sufficient spiritual power to turn then
scale on God's side.
"Think on this. Do not condemn Judas nor imagine
he was an evil minded man. He was merely a temperamental
man, He was a man who had an enormous idea of his own
power to plan. He thought he had a greater intelligence
than those who listened so humbly to the Master, and
he was going to show them what could be and should
be done.
"And so too late Judas awakened to the folly of
his vanity; and, as you know, he could not get out
of the body quick enough. But Jesus ministered to Judas
when He, too, had relinquished the physical body; and
I can assure you that over the generations, Judas,
because he loved our Master and our Lord, he has been
working for humanity, trying to grapple with wilful
people who think they know better than those who have
been through the discipline of life..."
