DWQA QuestionsCategory: Divinely Inspired MessengersIn a channeling about the Rules of Engagement, you told us: “The more people are elevated and put on a pedestal, even for lofty thinking that is in divine alignment, the more karmic consequences can develop from people less fortunate becoming discouraged and feeling increasingly disempowered and helpless. Because all humans are interlinked as part of a family, the more exalted one becomes, the more it reflects an imbalance that will lower others affected by the contrast in seeing themselves as inferior and believing this is so.” Is this why Jesus Christ washed the feet of his disciples?

Yours is a beautiful analysis, bridging an event from 2000 years ago, widely seen and correctly so, as a lesson in humility, while putting two and two together with words we are sharing with you today. Left unstated in the Scriptures, were the reasons why this is such a danger to a divine representative, as was the case for Christ's disciples following in his footsteps, not only to avoid the pitfalls of ego gratification being a way to stay in divine alignment, but the problem of becoming exalted, inevitably, separates those in divine alignment from those struggling to get there. You can see in today's world with Jesus Christ being so exalted and venerated, by the churches especially, but also in the minds and hearts of Christians that it is not only his untimely end and its grisly nature that seems an unbridgeable gap and sacrifice by Jesus Christ compared to what the average person might be willing to do. The fact that people wanting to be in divine alignment are going against the tide so often times, means there will be a struggle to hold one's own, to be accepted, to be successful to a meaningful degree. And even when someone gains a measure of recognition and begins to build a following as a prophet, one of the biggest constraints is the doubt they themselves will hold along the way, seeing that Christ's seeming perfection remains ever beyond their reach. So one who exhibits signs and demonstrations of their divinity will, by extension, not only seem lofty but superior and perhaps unapproachable. To make others feel lesser and even grow their doubt in their own prospects of reaching sufficient divine alignment, works to undermine the point of Christianity and its lessons, that all are children of the divine and are lofty in the way they were created and loved by the Almighty, so all are deserving. This is an important lesson, that one of the greatest challenges is to fully love the self because it requires divine alignment to do so in a true sense, not to settle for ego gratification as that will be a hollow semblance of being at one with the Creator. Being in divine alignment requires unity of the individual with the divine and that is a state of loving in the deepest sense of both appreciation and acceptance, because it is a state of completion with respect to what is most important.
