The Trouble with Soul Mates!

Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
Genesis 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them
Genesis 2:18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.

The first chapter creation of man included a woman that is evidenced by the mention of the terms male – female – and them (which is implied). The second chapter creation of man does not include a woman.

Genesis 2:22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.

The female created in the first chapter is properly called in Hebrew נקבה or neqêbâh (nek-ay-baw’), and certain Ancient Texts tell us she was formed back to back to the First Adam, and subsequently removed. While this Hebrew word does indeed mean female, it comes from the root word meaning “to pierce or bore a hole.”

Therefore It means “female as with a hole;” making it an implicit description of a “female according to sexual form.”

In the second chapter account of consecutive creation, the word אשּׁה ‘ishshâh (ish-shaw’) is used to describe “woman.” The Holy Writ is careful to tell us she received her first existence in the “World of Briyah” when Elohiym conceived and announced her creation and to what ends it was intended. Briyah is also called beri’ah or Olam Briah, בריאה עולם in Hebrew, is literally “the World of Creation.” Angelic forces dwell in this world.

Two words amply connote the woman’s inception, before she was actually formed or made in the “World of Yitzirah.” This world is the place of formation. Whatever course that selective matter was created to flow in and consolidate to in Briyah … is formed in Yitzirah. The two words describing the woman’s inception are כְּנֶגְדּוֹ עֵזֶר or ay’-zer neged which renders HELP – TELL. Now neged also means MATE. Here’s the progression from the root as it is meant to be studied in order to see what lies beneath the simple word of “meet.” It comes from the root nâgad which is listed in the Strong Concordance as H-5046 and listed below.

H5046 נגד nâgad naw-gad’

A primitive root; properly to front , that is, stand boldly out opposite; by implication (causatively), to manifest; figuratively to announce (always by word of mouth to one present); specifically to expose , predict , explain , praise: – bewray, X certainly, certify, declare (-ing), denounce, expound, X fully, messenger, plainly, profess, rehearse, report, shew (forth), speak, X surely, tell, utter. My note: bewray means to reveal unintentionally

Neged or mate progresses out of that SPECIFIC ROOT and comes to mean: tell. It progresses to Tell: as in – To give an account to another; Before: as in – As to show yourself in front of another.

The dynamics of this word promotes its own irrefutable design of placement and purpose.

This “MATE” was to be opposite the man in order that he would be able to reflect himself to and through HER. She was created to hear his reasoning, his intent, his desire, his frustrations and triumphs; and she was to correct him accordingly, through his own voluntary participation with this GIFT FROM ELOHYIM.

Her aide or help was to allow him to reach his potential progressively on a daily basis, with her being as a silent and/or talkative mirror set BEFORE or IN FRONT of him. She was then appropriately called ‘ishshâh or woman, as she entered the World of Asiyah having been named by Adam and because of the fact that she CAME OUT OF MAN. Asiyah is the world of action.

Yeshua (Jesus) stated it was not what went into a man that defiled him but rather that which CAME OUT OF MAN.

So then what does this aspect of defilement mean? On esoteric levels of examination it means that once a man is defiled he is set up to be judged. Kabbalah teaches us that the woman occupies the LEFT SIDE which is the side of DEFILEMENT – and therefore also the side of JUDGMENT called Gevurah.

Take another quick look at the definitions of H5046. Not only does this “in your face” placement of woman EXPOSE you – it also BEWRAYS you which also means BETRAY. Primarily it is to examine the LOVE – LONGSUFFERING – GENTLENESS – KINDNESS – MERCY: called Chesed. This is the RIGHT SIDE occupied by the man of obedience which Yahweh Elohiym set up to be developed in the SOUL OF ADAM.

So what then is The Trouble with Soul Mates?

I tell you … TRUE as well as UN-TRUE SOUL MATES WILL BETRAY YOU!

However, there is another Trouble with Soul Mates and it is just this – I am guessing – one out of every 613,000 actually understands that man and woman are supposed to be joined as “soul mates,” and NOT for the sake of LUST that masquerades as so-called LOVE.

Another Trouble then arises if the Soul Mate doesn’t understand this concept of existence for the sake of another. Soul mate has become just a word that societal correctness spreads over every wedding ceremony from the most simple to the greatest of pomp and circumstance. Even the contemplation of what a soul mate may or may not conjure upon its usage is never given a glance.

Inasmuch as this practice of lustful soul mate union has been going on for millennia, is it any wonder that the depravity and ignoble habits of puny, sissy, half-hearted, adolescent minded, boys in men’s bodies that are trying to run the family unit just isn’t working? The only thing these fool hearted jesters can quote in scripture – if any at all – is of course “THE HEAD OF THE WOMAN IS MAN” with no regard for the other part in the same scripture that says “THE HEAD OF MAN IS CHRIST.”

For now, I will just drop this in for consumption by those who care to chew on a little meat of the word. This CHRIST [as the head of man] happens to be the anointed word made flesh; meaning it is designed to be in the flesh. Concerning IT, and stated by IT; IT is said to have recognized and sounded this statement “A body thou hast made me.”

A body can ONLY be formed or made by the female passive (or peaceful), yet painstaking, and exacting energy harnessed within the woman. This connects us ALL to the element of time and space as we experience our initial consciousness of existence. She receives the seed from the side of love, forms it in the side of evil and iniquity (or place of separation from God) and makes sure it is deserving of the penalty of sin. What?

King David had this to say in Psalms 51:5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. Of the word shapen the Hebrew says – whirled. Now all of this is for the sake of the soul which was given as our eternal part of God that cannot die. The penalty for sin is death, but this death is to the body, and not to the soul identified with its Eternal and Living Giver.

Furthermore, this woman, or feminine influence, who is the head of man striving below the supernal realms of knowledge issued from the LEFT SIDE, and is therefore the feminine side of Yahweh Elohiym called the SHEKINAH – THE HOLY GHOST!

Are we then saying the head of woman is man and the head of man is woman? Precisely, and we note that one is on the lower level and one is on the higher level. Just as there were two Adams and two females created; there is the un-en-souled man of the first (beast-like-being) nature that responds exactly like a beast, and then there is the en-souled ADAM (meaning human-being) that is striving to perfect his soul. This perfection will be accomplished through five levels of consciousness, and “SOUL MATES” must consciously cleave and leave, journeying even as Abraham stated, as so ordered by Yahweh Elohiym. It is a part of the deal or covenant we consciously made with HIM; before we forgot the terms and they sank into the abyss of the subconscious mind we all rely on for self-preservation.

Every act of creation involved an act of separation. This resulted in a juxtaposition of exact opposites being endowed with constructive or destructive molecular structure if needed, or equally so with divine or demonic spiritual parts taking on the noun of entity. Every entity is released for the purpose of delineation; it reveals to us the true nature of THE ONE from where all these things exist. Each level not only reveals itself, but moves exponentially further from the unified ONENESS of GOD as we perceive it, but it is HIS plan to reveal the beginning from the end. In truth, it must all be restored after our examination and perfection?

Acts 3:21 Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.

Let us return to the active dilemma at hand The Trouble with Soul Mates.

When these clear references regarding the way of God are taught successively to several generations; then, the answer will become evident. Soul Mates will discover the trueness or truthfulness of their unions, and the scripture being taught of Christ in Mark 10:9 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder, will render itself in new light.

The blessing cannot be complete without both halves being present in our return for our re-reward. Genesis 5:2 Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created. You must read this scripture closely to understand that the blessing was appropriated to THEM as male and female, and he called THEM by their name ADAM. Separately, we are not completely blessed folks.

How then can a carnally minded “Son of Belial” – a (beast-son) ever Train up a child in the way he should go: as taught in Proverbs 22:6; when this beast was trained by another beast and they all want to hang out with grunting beasts that swear, drink, play and watch games, fornicate, lie, steal, connive, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera? This is why in Exodus 20:5 we read: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me. Either a child is taught in the way of God or it isn’t and will suffer the consequences for lack of knowledge and understanding and failure to live accordingly.

Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge:

A portion of understanding that attaches itself to the aspect of shapen in iniquity is in the additional definition as previously mentioned – that being whirled. When something is whirled, it is usually taken in a spinning circular motion and thoroughly incorporated. It is sort of a descriptiveness of the potter forming the vessel of clay. Also remember that this incorporation was being done in the womb of darkness, to be brought out in the FLESH! This tells us that just as the specified spermatozoa are trapped by divine design; the soul that is attached to that specificity must stay in that circular cycle of the flesh that is called incarnation, and re-incarnation. Here … it is thoroughly whirled in a divinely orchestrated system called gilgulim (plural) which is derived from the singular gilgul meaning cycle or circle. Each cycle is an incarnation.

If this is the case, which it is, what about all these different bodies produced by beast mounting beast? What about them? 2 Peter 2:12 states but these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption.

So what then is the solution? The great Christian Apostle Paul tells us this in 2 Timothy 2:15 Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth; and again in 2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness. The way out is obviously in acquiring the knowledge laid up for us in the scripture.

Matthew 4:17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

The solution is then REPENTANCE! Repentance is a choice of hearing and doing. This cause and effect process awakens the spark of the secondary level of the soul within; it causes one to strive for a new and better existence. At this point of spiritual cognizability this male or female begins to wonder if that “once special one” is truly or truthfully their “SOUL MATE.” Since the woman matures much more quickly than the male, it is usually she that discovers the reality attached to the soul’s desires. She then assumes her role in front of the male, and he remains beleaguered and unable to respond, because of the lack of understanding. This is measurably possible with an awakening of the male before the female, but not as likely, because remember our anecdotal reference. When Adam was put to sleep in order for Eve to be modeled, she was awakened long before he was. She had plenty of time to converse with and be seduced by Nachash the Serpent, or as he was in reality, the first man Adam possessing the beast-like approach and looking for a “female according to sexual form.” Hence Cain and Able were not of the second en-souled Adam’s seed but WERE OF THE WICKED ONE.

While the woman exiled herself, and forced Adam to wait 130 years before he produced a son in his own image, many incomplete demonic souls were spawned that God had to destroy in the flood as brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed. Still those demonic natures made it through the flood because of their very nature; it was only the bodies that housed them that were destroyed. Their spirits or souls returned to the breeze of the air, to be recycled into whatever vessel that would draw them to their selves. What then did I say concerning what The Trouble with Soul Mates initially constitutes?

TRUE SOUL MATES WILL BETRAY YOU! Eve betrayed Adam. Why? Because … the plan of Yahweh Elohiym was to have the woman lead Adam into the dark side of existence, in order that he may come to understand it. In this place on THE LEFT, it will be understood what is written in Luke 17:33 whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it. This place teaches us that JUSTNESS is just as much a part of the character of THE CREATOR as is FORGIVENESS. One issues from the right and the other from the left. In fact, the left always comes out of the right.

Revelation 3:19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

Love from the right side is the initial emotion; followed by rebuke and chasten which happens as the attendee is directed to the left side of judgment. The wisdom of God filtered through understanding and love, demands that disorder be re-set as order, to be embraced and understood to be whirled pure within the consciousness of the pure soul.

Understanding all this enables the fear of our awe of HIS FOREKNOWLEDGE, to engender the revealed and hidden wisdoms’ that cause us to be “born again” as a child of God. Romans 8:29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

The Trouble with Soul Mates – let’s see. We mentioned Eve betraying Adam causing the rights of the firstborn to take a back seat to propriety and morality. Sarah betrayed (as well as exposed) Abram when it came to Ishmael not being considered HER firstborn.

Let’s not forget the ageless looming promise made to every woman who would become a child bearer.

Genesis 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

Genesis 3:16 Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.

The promised birth from a woman would settle the score by and by. The REDEEMER would in the fullness of time be conceived and brought forth in sorrow. Women are immeasurably more selective than are men when it comes to the integrity of sexual fidelity. Woman’s womb, as it were, was appropriated to be the dark incubation arena that would issue forth the messenger of final judgment.

Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

So then, Lot’s wife betrayed him and caused the remainder of his seed to become bastards wherein the rights of the first born male were taken away. Rebekah betrayed Isaac regarding their offspring by tricking him for Jacob’s sake concerning the rights and blessing of the firstborn. Both Leah and Rachel betrayed Jacob on his wedding night and messed up the rights of the firstborn in that chosen family. Zipporah the wife of Moses stood in front of him and showed him his faults when it came to the circumcision of his sons – HIS first born and HER second born son. These were destined to keep the mixed multitudes in favor with Moses and therefore periodically presented before Yud-Hei-Vav-Hei. The foreskin that she threw at the feet of the Angel of Yahweh was undoubtedly that belonging to the second son. Yahweh had come to the tent of Moses, to kill him for his oversight, concerning the hidden outward sign of covenant practiced by the Sons of God. Yahweh (THE LORD) came to kill his servant Moses? That’s exactly what is written to read in Exodus Chapter 4.

Now the redeeming aspect of two truthful SOUL MATES coming into the knowledge of one another is seen with David and Bathsheba. They were consummate SOUL MATES, and destined to find one another from before the foundation of the world. Of course Bathsheba had to marry another man while she waited on David to notice her. Bathsheba means “daughter of oath” or “seven” because an oath is constituted as being complete by seven parts. Hidden herein is an esoteric secret. With her being the “daughter of seven” it also tells us she was the “daughter seven times.” Scripture informs us that when she first came to David she had been PURIFIED OF HER UNCLEANESS.

Sometimes soul mates are born a generation or a half generation apart. Sometimes it may be ten generations before a soul can lawfully begin to fulfill its ultimate purpose of being united with his or her true Soul Mate.

There are tens of thousands of violations and scenarios concerning reincarnations’, and therefore impossible to set all them down in any single book … even if there be one who understands them all. However, many ancients sages brought down from above, commented upon, and some wrote about these mysteries of mysteries.

“And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcasses of the men that rebel against me.” (Isaiah 66:24).

It does not say, ‘that rebelled against me’, but rather “rebel against me,” which is to say they continually remain unrepentant. Souls wander in multiple bodies that are inevitably lost to time and space, but they gain experiences that teach them how to repair the breach. Here is a hidden truth regarding the repair process as it relates through progressive soul mate union. Just as the woman (as soul mate) was formed and set before the man to be his collaborative source of reflection, he was also (by the same process) set before her. So then SOUL MATES are bonded to bring about an ultimate ONENESS. This unity is the place of PERFECTION.

Matthew 5:48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

Remember the remark concerning one out of every 613,000 may actually understand that man and woman are supposed to be joined as “soul mates?” Add a zero to it and it may well be the ratio of the awareness of those who are actively working on the solution to The Trouble with Soul Mates. Meaning that one in every 6,130,000 souls may have proper intent, and is learning all they can from supernal truths concerning this very serious problem. Let’s go just a single zero more. That makes one of every 60,130,000 [60 million] who understand there is a deeper level of achievement that must take place before the re-unification of all things in GOD can take place. Guess what … this last number is just about equal to the current number of deaths per year. This could conceivably indicate that only a single individual that went to his grave this year, having taken the last breath owed to the body was aware of this ancient profound knowledge concerning The Trouble with Soul Mates.

Souls unite exclusively one to another by choice which God approves. Whereas English translations, for all the words for soul, are rolled into a single expression; the Hebrew teaches by Torah that there are five separate levels concerning the soul. The first level is that of nephesh.

Genesis 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

The word for soul at the end of the above scripture is properly written as nephesh. This word signifies for a man the same thing that it signifies for every living creature spoken of in creation. EVERY ANIMAL has a nephesh. It denotes the animalistic soul, which is the lowest level of recognizable redemption in this world of motion and action.

In Kabbalistic terms this world is called The World of Asiyah. Beloved – please remember that Yeshua spoke often concerning not only this world, but the next world as well. Since nephesh is the lowest level of soul awareness, it is therefore primarily controlled lower in the body. Below the center of the torso is the physical/ sexual desire of the soul. When two individuals unite their souls for the cause of lust and sexual gratification, it is on this level. Animals do the same thing. Many call this an act of love which in most cases is a depravity ACTED UPON by way of perversion. So then the homosexuals that claim this as being the way they were created have rightly stated their case in some degree. They however lack the understanding of their own choices, as being the reasons why they were sent into bodies. What proclivities one would act upon must be resolved in the world of action. In order to overcome wicked tendencies, or to otherwise present honorable ones; it takes a living body.

The Trouble with Soul Mates in this lower level of the body makes their union short lived and temporary just as the body proves itself to be. It becomes dissatisfied, stays hungry, needs physical motivations, and requires time OUT way too often. A single body points to the self; thereby this soul level garners selfishness, and self-preservation.

Now the next level of the soul according to the Kabbalah is ruach. Recorded in Genesis 6:3 And the LORD said, my spirit (ruach) shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh…. The soul has a spirit level above the body level that is placed there by the breath, or wind, or air, or spirit – once again it is called the ruach. Since it originates in the breath of God and is given into us as the breath of life then it resides in the lungs and heart of the body’s torso. The heart and the level of breathing hold the seat of the Emotions.

The Trouble with Soul Mates is that it is challenging for them to come together through genuine emotional balance. It takes spiritual effort to develop the ruach. It takes even more spiritual expeditiousness, via each becoming a bonified or converted experiencer, in order for two separate ruachs to become one. On top of this, both must be knowledgeable of the task at hand; including an understanding of probable pitfalls and revelations, and each must possess an equal commitment to accept the culmination concerning their lifelong commitment, or the lack thereof. Not many marriages ever claim victory in this spiritually ordained challenge. For it is within the sanctity of marriage that this universal law is most generally played out.

So what happens when one partner in marriage gains the insight regarding The Trouble with Soul Mates and the other still lacks the spiritual growth to appreciate their partner? I mean besides incompatibility. Furthermore, what if the two are not REALLY soul mates at all? Do not forget that these soul journeys have no time limitations except in this world. Each installment becomes a part of what God said in Exodus 20:6 And showing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments. These thousands are from the third and fourth generations that were considered iniquitous because of their progenitors. All is in the secret of what is understood today as DNA. More than just genetic code resides within ADAM. The decoding of spiritual influences will not happen in a science laboratory.

The Zohar (an ancient Jewish mystical text) has this to say in one place about soul mates:

You might say, “But we have learned that a man obtains a mate according to his deeds and ways of behavior!” It is assuredly so! If he is meritorious and his ways are correct, then he deserves his own SOULMATE-to join her AS THEY WERE JOINED when they left THE HOLY ONE, BLESSED BE HE, BEFORE BONDING A BODY.

The same text goes on with the following:

Rabbi Chiya asked, “Where should he who performs good deeds look for his soulmate?” He answered, “We have already learned that a man should even sell all his property to marry the daughter of a sage, because the deposit of the Holy One, blessed be He, is handed over to a sage.” THEREFORE, HE SHALL SURELY FIND HIS MATE WITH HIM.

So where does this leave an individual who may just happen to be given a wife who is the daughter of a sage, and he fails to perform good deeds that will cause him to be meritorious in the end of his life? Interesting question – no doubt, and as I am a staunch supporter of knowing that there are no questions that don’t have answers, here is at least one determination.

Exodus 21:1 Now these are the judgments which thou shalt set before them. This is how it is going to be judged in the end – period!

Zoharic records have the following:

Rabbi Shimon told him that these are the ways of the Holy One, blessed be He. Although a woman may be destined to become a certain man’s wife, another man may marry her first. But as soon as the time has come for the destined man to marry her, the latter is removed from this world, because of the other that comes after him. And it is very hard and painful for the Holy One, blessed be He, to remove that person from the world before his time has come.

According to scripture: Exodus 21:3 If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if he were married, then his wife shall go out with him. Either his incarnation into the flesh of his body was strictly solitary, in order to rectify certain aspects of the soul’s development; or … he had a wife ordained and sent forth into this world to join him for the same purpose, and they leave as they came – TOGETHER.

The next line of scripture reads: Exodus 21:4 If his master have given him a wife, and she have born him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master’s, and he shall go out by himself. Harsh you say? Well the fact is that every soul must, according to Philippians 2:12 … work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

The wife he had on the nephesh soul mate level, and the children he may or may not have engendered, DO NOT BELONG TO HIM!

1 Kings 20:3 Thy silver and thy gold is mine; thy wives also and thy children, even the goodliest, are mine.

They belong to God, and HE had the woman selectively choose that certain sperm out of billions available; because all of humanity travels in the cellular spermatozoa stream of the dark matter that constitutes flesh.

So then he actually married somebody else’s wife. Likewise this wife married someone other than her ultimate soul mate. Now the question at hand seems to be … were they really soul mates as they both would undoubtedly attest to if asked? The answer will now surprise you. Yes they were and that is part of The Trouble with Soul Mates, however, they were merely nephesh level soul mates. Natural beasts merely choose one out of the herd that may be in heat. Their union does however produce a body into which God chooses to send whatever soul is next in line to assume that environment of progenitors and upbringing. The mercy of the Holy One, blessed be He, makes these allowances in order to help the two souls get through this life of rebuke, correction, and instruction in righteousness. The preacher heard this from on high and brought it down for our consideration: Ecclesiastes 4:9 Two are better than one….

And – 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

This theme of repentance just keeps presenting itself time and time again. Obviously we are then here to learn true repentance, and accept new directions’ for the recovery of our soul’s missing ingredient which is forgiveness. That is the reason I used the term of re-reward in an above paragraph, because we all once had a reward and we lost it. Notice the scripture uses it quite often.

Here is a quote from John Milton, author of “Paradise Lost:”

“I sung of Chaos and Eternal Night, Taught by the heav’nly Muse to venture down the dark descent, and up to reascend…”

Even the Hobbit movie has the same connotation – “here and back again.”

There are none, that in understanding this ever unfolding drama, that will tell you it is accomplished in a single journey. Of course that slaps all the Baby Christians in their garrulous chops but the truth will never change. It can be hidden a while to some but never to all.

So then The Trouble with Soul Mates is richly sprinkled with multitudinous challenges that can never be fully discussed in a single treatise or lecture.

Let us take the soul’s development one step further as it regards the subject at hand which is The Trouble with Soul Mates.

Soul mates that are initiated, and travel according to divine pleasure, unite on the third and hardest level to attain below the supernal realms, of crown reward, wisdom, and understanding. This is the soul’s third level of development called neshamah. Genesis 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

Neshamah is the word used here for breath. It properly means a “puff, wind, breath, soul, intellect, inspiration.” It is divine inspiration which is the opposite of expiration. Expiration denotes coming to the end of a contract so to speak, also it describes the expelling of the air from the lungs – as in death. Inspiration is life and expiration is death. God takes back his soul that was on loan and the flesh reaches the end of its contract and returns to the dust. This is to say back to the place of the dark matter of flesh.

In discovering the meaning of neshamah we can quickly deduce that this is the seat of the higher consciousness. It can be understood to be within the place of the brain where intellect rationalizes all that it sees, hears, smells, tastes, and touches. This is done regardless of our complete awareness to the fact, long before any emotion is promoted to course, or any dismissal of the divine can be allowed reign.

So why did the sage’s daughter have to marry another? Because … when her true soul mate came into the world he perverted his ways before the time he could marry her and did not rectify them by the time he was to marry her. Therefore another took his wife to wed. It is just as the scripture states: Acts 1:20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishopric let another take. This man loses all that was set up for him to be over as king and priest in the coming world of peace. His habitation is his flesh AS A MAN, and he (as an en-souled entity) must now assume his habitation in another description of flesh until he no longer dwells on his base desires but sets himself on a new course of repair by choice. To take this further requires too much space. There are however ancient texts that deal with the summation concerning “wronged souls.” Think about it? Did Job qualify his space in the discussion? He loved God, stayed away from evil, and seemed to have been trying to cover all the bases and then WHAM! Just who was he before he was a man called Job? Hah! Many mysteries are known only to the righteous few that HaShem (meaning – THE NAME) has predestined to draw aside and see. Come and see says the Lord.

Suffice it to say at this juncture that The Trouble with Soul Mates resolves itself; when two souls understand that the awakening of this neshamah, within them both, unites them in the highest measure. This is just below that which divides us from the heavenly realm, and holds key to the next two steps which finally forms the body of the Christ.

So much is said concerning the renewing of the mind in Christ but all that is written elsewhere. In the body is the brain, in the brain is the mind, in the mind is the thought, in the thought is the word, and in the word is the inspiration which is the soul. Mate it properly.

Mark 10:5 And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept.

What’s this all about? It is referring to the Bill of Divorcement that Moses had instructed the children of God to use under certain circumstances. Let’s just say there are a lot of half-baked ideas about divorce that lay burdens upon the shoulders of so very many. What is upon your shoulders? Your head of course which is there to serve and protect the brain. The truth about divorce is multifaceted and cannot be justly discussed here. So why bring it up you ask? It is for the sake of a single word used which is hardness. Remember the daunting task of two soul mates being able to relate in the heart level – the ruach?

Hardness has little to no passion or feeling. Hardness possesses a rigidity resistant to change or even discussion of change. Hardness is the robe that surrounds ignorance and insecurity. Hardness shelters whatever violence is needed to maintain it’s refusal to submit to truth. Hardness will never repent and will never be baptized. One’s baptism allows that one to take on all the qualities of the water and the ritual. Water is submissive to whatever level or shape into which it is placed.

All things expedient in life are to be understood by the following statement: Isaiah 28:10 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:

In other words – we get to the end by leaving the beginning – embracing the end – and returning to the beginning – STEP BY STEP. If either soul mate exhibits this hardness divorce is a lawful alternative.

Mate it properly.
