The Declaration of Human Freedom

Archangel Michael (Via Steve Beckow), Feb. 19, 2011

Every being is a divine and eternal soul living in a temporal body. Every being was alive before birth and will live after death.

Every soul enters into physical life for the purpose of experience and education, that it may, in the course of many lifetimes, learn its true identity as a fragment of the Divine.

Life itself is a constant process of spiritual evolution and unfoldment, based on free choice, that continues until such time as we realize our true nature and return to the Divine from which we came.

No soul enters life to serve another, except by choice, but to serve its own purpose and that of the Divine from which it came.

All life is governed by natural and universal laws which precede and outweigh the laws of humanity. These laws, such as the law of karma, the law of attraction, and the law of free will, are decreed by God to order existence and assist each person to achieve life’s purpose.

No government can or should survive that derives its existence from the enforced submission of its people or that denies its people their basic rights and freedoms.

Life is a movement from one existence to another, in varied venues throughout the universe and in other universes and dimensions of existence. We are not alone in the universe but share it with other civilizations, most of them peace-loving, many of whom are more advanced than we are, some of whom can be seen with our eyes and some of whom cannot.

The evidence of our five senses is not the final arbiter of existence. Humans are spiritual as well as physical entities and the spiritual side of life transcends the physical. God is a Spirit and the final touchstone of God’s Truth is not physical but spiritual. The Truth is to be found within.

God is one and, because of this, souls are one. They form a unity. They are meant to live in peace and harmony together in a “common unity” or community. The use of force to settle affairs runs contrary to natural law. Every person should have the right to conduct his or her own affairs without force, as long as his or her choices do not harm another.

No person shall be forced into marriage against his or her will. No woman shall be forced to bear or not bear children, against her will. No person shall be forced to hold or not hold views or worship in a manner contrary to his or her choice. Nothing vital to existence shall be withheld from another if it is within the community’s power to give.

Every person shall retain the ability to think, speak, and act as they choose, as long as they not harm another. Every person has the right to choose, study and practice the education and career of their choice without interference, provided they not harm another.

No one has the right to kill another. No one has the right to steal from another. No one has the right to force himself or herself upon another in any way.

Any government that harms its citizens, deprives them of their property or rights without their consent, or makes offensive war upon its neighbors, no matter how it misrepresents the situation, has lost its legitimacy. No government may govern without the consent of its people. All governments are tasked with seeing to the wellbeing of their citizens. Any government which forces its citizens to see to its own wellbeing without attending to theirs has lost its legitimacy.

Men and women are meant to live fulfilling lives, free of want, wherever they wish and under the conditions they desire, providing their choices do not harm another and are humanly attainable.

Children are meant to live lives under the beneficent protection of all, free of exploitation, with unhindered access to the necessities of life, education, and health care.

All forms of exploitation, oppression, and persecution run counter to universal and natural law. All disagreements are meant to be resolved amicably.

Any human law that runs counter to natural and universal law is invalid and should not survive. The enactment or enforcement of human law that runs counter to natural and universal law brings consequences that cannot be escaped, in this life or another. While one may escape temporal justice, one does not escape divine justice.

All outcomes are to the greater glory of God and to God do we look for the fulfillment of our needs and for love, peace, and wisdom. So let it be. Aum/Amen.

"The Recalibration of Awareness – Apr 20/21, 2012 (Kryon channeled by Lee Carroll) (Subjects: Old Energy, Recalibration Lectures, God / Creator, Religions/Spiritual systems (Catholic Church, Priests/Nun’s, Worship, John Paul Pope, Women in the Church otherwise church will go, Current Pope won’t do it), Middle East, Jews, Governments will change (Internet, Media, Democracies, Dictators, North Korea, Nations voted at once), Integrity (Businesses, Tobacco Companies, Bankers/ Financial Institutes, Pharmaceutical company to collapse), Illuminati (Started in Greece, with Shipping, Financial markets, Stock markets, Pharmaceutical money (fund to build Africa, to develop)), Shift of Human Consciousness, (Old) Souls, Women, Masters to/already come back, Global Unity.... etc.) - (Text version)

… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …

Rubio springs back from Republican debate glitch

Yahoo – AFP, Jennie Matthew, 7 February 2016

Londonderry (United States) (AFP) - Marco Rubio, the young Republican senator fast building momentum in the race for the White House, came back swinging Sunday after a mauling in the latest presidential debate for his lack of experience.

The charismatic Florida senator floundered at the start of the Saturday night showdown, just days before the crucial New Hampshire primary on Tuesday. He was mocked for repeating the same rehearsed line over and over.

On Sunday he fought back, telling ABC News that his campaign had raised more money last night in the first hour of the debate -- precisely when he appeared to come undone -- than in any other debate.

"Let's dispel with this fiction that Barack Obama doesn't know what he's doing. He knows exactly what he's doing," Rubio said on a loop in clips seized upon by Democrats and doing the rounds on social media.

"As far as that message, I hope they keep running it and I'm going to keep saying because it's true," Rubio told ABC.

 out how to make pancakes for 800 people" (AFP Photo/Don Emmert)

Next stop was a town hall event in the town of Londonderry, New Hampshire to address a crowd of hundreds packed into a school hall.

Initially advertised as a pancake breakfast, his campaign took pleasure in announcing it was so oversubscribed they were forced to reclassify it as a town hall, where coffee and muffins would be served.

"We couldn't figure out how to make pancakes for 800 people," quipped a relaxed and confident Rubio, warming up the crowd with jokes about the Super Bowl and making no mention of his debate drubbing.

Appeal

He spoke eloquently about his parents' struggle as young immigrants from Cuba and the pride they took in being able to own a house and watch their children grow up to have more opportunities than they had.

His personal narrative is a key part of his appeal, reaching out to other immigrant families and tapping into his promise to revive the American dream at a time when the middle classes are more squeezed than ever.

Gathered in the school were young families, visitors from out of state, ardent Rubio supporters, others yet to make up their minds and opponents drawn to the political theater.

"I think he was dead on," said Derek Lafleur, a Ted Cruz supporter, who felt New Jersey Governor Chris Christie had been right to savage Rubio.

"I think Marco Rubio sounds very rehearsed, very polished. He doesn't seem very genuine. Like he said, the 25-second speech, I agree wholeheartedly with Christie."

Outside two Democrat campaigners made hay by dressing up as robots until Rubio's team asked them to move aside, but few in the crowd seemed that bothered.

The latest 7News/University of Massachusetts Lowell poll also suggested that the glitch had not impacted him in the polls, putting him unchanged at 14 percent behind Donald Trump's 35 percent lead.

Charismatic

Steven Marchand, a consultant from Portsmouth, New Hampshire and a first generation American, said it was a message that resonated strongly with his family despite him being a registered Democrat.

"He's a highly charismatic guy. He's highly articulate. He has a personal story which is compelling to a lot of Americans," he told AFP.

"It's pretty clear that in this election cycle it is not necessarily a big positive in either party, to the extent that might be a weakness of his. It doesn't seem to be holding back a whole lot right now."

Banker William Lionhood, who brought his wife and three young children, said Rubio was the best hope of expanding the voter base for the Republican Party beyond the divisiveness of Trump.

He dismissed Christie as "a little rambunctious" but admitted it hadn't been the 44-year-old Rubio's finest hour.

"Even if Rubio losses three or four points its going to be split over so many different people that are running in the same lane that it probably won't make a huge impact," said Lionhood.

Danny Mahoney, professor of political science at a college in neighboring Massachusetts, agreed.

"I don't think Cruz can win a general election, and I think Trump is a clown and a demagogue, and the governors have no chance of a snowball in hell of being elected president, so that leaves Rubio."

"The last two thirds of the debate he was terrific. There were five brutal minutes where he got flustered by Christie. They were unfortunate but you know you shouldn't score a debate simply by a gaffe."

“…5 - Integrity That May Surprise…

The Unthinkable… Politics, A Review

Humans will begin to search for integrity and fairness and it's going to happen in the places you never expect. I said this last week, so this is a review. There'll come a time when you will demand this of your politics - fairness and integrity. So when the candidates start calling each other names, you will turn your back on them and they won't get any votes. They're going to get the point real fast, don't you think? How about that?

Let me give you another potential. This country that I sit in right now [USA] will set the mold for that particular attribute. I have no clock. Watch for the youngsters to set this in motion, and they will, for they are the voters of tomorrow and they do not want the energy of today. To some of them, it's so abominable they won't even register to vote in this energy. You're going to see this soon. That was number five.. ..."
