30 9.1 Questions and answers Question : What is the first step that we have to take to achieve world peace? AREDOS : The very first step for you to take in your situation would be to energetically oppose any further discords amongst you. Discordance is the starting-point of all hostilities. Question : Do wars have a large influence on man’s spiritual development? AREDOS : Wars are forced upon people and they create hatred. It is quite obvious that all hatred prevents man’s development, well actually diminishes man’s development. Every human being is born to learn to get on with his fellow men. Every war produces the opposite. If one asks about the meaning of life, nobody can give an answer. You have no idea just how difficult many things are because of the terrible things that take place here on Earth, the things that produce such great changes. • Many of those that were suddenly wrenched out of their physical bodies still wander aimlessly on Earth! Others concentrate all of their thoughts on their possessions and their former place of residence. All of this adds to the chaos of the VIBRATIONS created by wars. Question : (1968) We observe that unrest is on the rise throughout the world and this must eventually lead to chaos. Can you please tell us what’s behind this? ELIAS : A great TRANSFORMATION is behind this, something like a kaleidoscope. Something rearranged will only appear within after it has been thoroughly shaken and scrambled . This doesn’t mean that this state of affairs is normal. It is only a comparison, one that should give you comfort. What is happening on Earth right now is the effect of the BATTLE of ARMAGEDDON, that is to say, a gigantic dispute between good and evil, a battle that commenced in the spiritual realm long ago, a battle that is now also played out on a physical level here on Earth. Question : Many people say that man was created in GOD’S image. If this is the case, why is it that evil intentions abound and this with the terrible consequences of crime and wars? ELIAS : What exactly is an image of GOD? – There is no such thing as an image of GOD, because HE is unimaginable ! However man is one of GOD’S eminent CREATIONS, but he never reminds himself of this. GOD does possess SENSES and so does man, there is a certain amount of coherence there in this respect. Question : Can the present endeavours for peace bring results? AREDOS : An individual life without GOD is impossible and this applies to every human being throughout the universe. The proof lies in wars, intolerance, in the destruction of all human endeavours, the annihilation of mankind, enslavement, fear and perplexity. All of this would not take place and be impossible , if mankind would act in alliance with the CREATOR. Mankind on Earth marches behind the great loser (Lucifer) and not behind the GREAT VICTOR! There is no other VICTOR but GOD, mankind on Earth must finally comprehend this!
