Watch and Pray


Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with
dissipation, drunkenness, and the anxieties of life,
and that day will close on you unexpectedly like a trap.
For it will come upon all those who live on the face
of the whole earth. Be always on the watch, and pray that
you may be able to escape all that is about to happen,
and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.

--Jeshua, from Luke 21:34-36

Hi Jim,

I'm reading Flight of The Feathered Serpent at the moment so it is great to read this quote since Judas mentions the importants to "Watch and Pray". It's good timing for me.

Thanks

It is also interesting to see there is a similiar theme to this picture with another one by the same artist called Unio Mystica.

Here is another passage that

Here is another passage that is along these same lines.

----------------------------------------------

Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:

So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.

Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark,

And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.

Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?

Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.

Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.

But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;

And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;

The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,

And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Hi Jim, This picture is

Hi Jim,
This picture is amazing – the artist has a true insight into mans development.
The dragon with seven heads on earth represents: the seven deadly sins or the seven main egos of mankind to overcome.
The moon represents: our emotions are ruled by the moon that we must break free from.
The sun represents: The light we need to seek to overcome the moon.
Either side of the sun is our Mother and Father, this represents: the only way to find the light.
The crown above represent: man living as a spiritual being or the birth of the higher body.

In light & love
Sasha
