PERSPECTIVES
104
Here we wish to discuss how things change in meaning and importance with perspective.
The inside area of a play pen is very important to a baby, because, of course, that is all it knows. Grade school is "important" to grade school kids and things like devices for inter-dimensional travel and warp engines (actually devices) are important to the government. The inside of a play pen is not important to the government and warp engines are not important tothe kid in the play pen who has no idea what that is.
Now, lets talk about night and day. Generally, we sleep at night - although there are exceptions. At night, kids are generally sleeping and their parents may be up late doing little adultthings. They may be talking about the future of the kids - all safely tucked away. thoughts of how to pay for College are not important to kids, but quite important to parents.
The physical universe we live in goes through four distinct cycles called the Golden Age, Silver Age, Bronze Age, and the Iron age which we are presently in. At the end of the Iron Age,the physical universe is dissolved and for a time does not exist. You might say it was "nighttime". When it is re-created, it is bright daytime considering all the fireworks that occur withthe "big bang" of the creation event.
This period consisting of the existence period (day) and the non-existence period (night) is called a "day" in the life of GOD. It is day now. GOD's children are awake, they are doing theirlittle stuff they do and hopefully thinking about HIM and that they would like to return to HIM which is HIS wish. After the dissolution, the immature souls will be sleeping or in aninactive state while they wait for the "new Heaven and new Earth" to be created. This is nighttime for GOD. But, like concerned parents, HE is awake, thinking about the future andplanning the best for HIS kids.
Now the Christian Bible quotes JESUS as saying as to the time of the dissolution (end of the World), "No one will know - comes like a thief in the night - not even the Angles know thetime !". The dissolution is an event that is originated from outside of time ; therefore no one living inside of time can know. The Angles are people who died and live in the Astral World -bad angles are called Devils. The Astral World is what most people think Heaven is, hence the statement: "Heaven and Earth pass away..." because both are dissolved in a dissolution.However, higher planes are not dissolved and the souls who live there see things like GOD, i.e., the simple "passing" of night and day over and over again.

CHARACTERISTICS OF CULTS
We want to run through some of the basic techniques used by cults to keep their followers loyal and "in line". Many cults are clearly phony but, despite the availability of documentationwhich clearly shows this, they continue to grow and prosper. How do they do it ? Let's look at a few ways.
1. Isolate the disciple
Convince the disciple that you are the only source of the truth. Convince him to only read literature that you provide or that you approve of. In this way, even if you are exposed, your
