While showering linear Steven was contacted by Multi-dimensional Stephen (we'll explain that in a minute) to make sure he explicates (word of the month) why gratitude is important as opposed to just declaring it.

I tell Steven that he needs to reference a universal law to get the point across. The particular law in play is the Law of Attraction. This explained very well in the movie The Secret www.thesecret.tv/

The quick synopis of the law is simply that you create your reality from your beliefs. This means if you focus on lack, you will create the circumstances that will reinforce that particular state of mind. The inverse is if you focus on abundance, you will reinforce that reality for yourself.

It's not as easy as it sounds because there is a dependency on knowing what one believes. Many of our beliefs live in the shadows of our subconscious. Getting to them is journey in and of itself.

Now on the names Steven and Stephen. It seems that I was born with two missing letters of my name that are equated with the number 7 and the number eight. I do not have any letters in my name which are of those values according to the numerology of my name.

The number 7 is representative of a spiritual less I needed to learn which I believe for the most part is contained in this post above. The number 8 is a lesson dealing with how to own and mange one's power - also directly related to this post.

Therefore by substituting the V in Steven with ph of Stephen, I pick up the missing 7 in the P and the 8 in the H and am now complete with my name as I sip my tea and eat my cookies.

Today is my daughter's 17th birthday. One of the gifts she received was an R rated movie (must be 17 or with parent). My first reaction was to say "why would your friend give you a movie rate R?" My daughter responsed "I'm 17 Dad".

Almost 30 Years ago I read Seth Speaks by Jane Roberts. I was intrigued with one particular statement Seth made about a false statement being inserted into one of the gospels. He said It was not Mark and it was not John which left Matthew and Mark.

Most theologians up to about a hundred years ago believed Matthew was the source Gospel for Mark and Luke (John came from a different strain altogether). What happened in this last century was that Mark was acknoweldged as older than Matthew (Matthew was sourced to 200CE).

I am reading a book by Mark H. Gaffney called The Gnostic Secrets of the Naassenes which states the reason Matthew was bumped. Matthew contains a line where Jesus says to Peter "You are the Rock I shall build my Church on". No other Gospel references this and all other Gospels refute the line when Peter refers to Jesus as the Cornerstone. Biblical language does not change meanings of words like Stone which is a deeper reference to Adam Kadmon or Primal Man as architected in the heavens.

Gaffney calls out the tampering via insertion as meant to support the agenda of the Roman Catholic Church's rational for existance and it's authority for it's power. No Gospel beyond Matthew's even mentions a Church. Gaffney goes on to show how Matthew was developed as anti-Pauline Gospel meant to keep the Jewish law intact within Jesus movement "I've come to complete the law not to change it". Matthew's Church however became the new Synagogue tied to the State and up to the last 40 years or so, the largest corporation in the world.

So they fabricated a god that blessed those that were being blessed and that cursed those that were not blessed. In other words, it was the only thing that was logical [to them]. "You must be doing something good -- let's see if we can figure out what it is. *You* must be doing something bad -- let's see if we can figure out what it is." And the good and the bad grew out of individual preferences. In other words, "If you do something that I agree with, you're good. Otherwise, you can't be very good because I'm sure I am."
