RE: "For whoever you may think me/BB is.. "
Hi John,
I deal with and have dealt with a variety of choices when considering your testimony and trying to understand it.
1. Does BB = You? I have swung back and forth on that, but mostly accepted your assertion that he was you as that seemed to be a condition for continuing our conversation. However, my gut feeling is that he is not you. I believe you are the same spirit that resided in a WWII American airman who died miserably hating God. Other than that, you don’t seemed concerned to know more about anything that doesn’t involve BB, so I have to be OK with that.
2. If BB is not You, what is he? Once again, I have swung back and forth, but on this my gut feeling is that BB is not a demon, as I understand that term. I believe he is the spirit of a human being (as you represent him to be) who was part of a group selected and cultivated by the “sun gods” many thousands of years ago, lived many lives in ancient Egypt, and eventually “walked away” in reaction to the degenerating worship practices of later Egypt.
3. If BB is not You or a Demon, but is another spirit, what is he doing “inside” You? My thoughts on this have swung as well, but I am most comfortable with a possibility mentioned in a much earlier post. I believe that BB is what is called in Jewish mysticism a “Dybbukim.” These “were generally considered to be souls, which, on account of the enormity of their sins, were not even allowed to transmigrate and so became ‘denuded spirits' who sought refuge in the bodies of living persons.” (Gershom Scholem, Kabbalah, p. 349) “A dybbuk is a departed soul which cleaves spontaneously to another person prior to its ascent for divine judgement. A dybbuk possession, however, is not a total 'takeover' of the victim's consciousness; both the dybbuk and the victim remain conscious and co-exist in the victim's body.” (Gershom Winkler, Dybbuk, p. 9) However, the statement about being a very evil spirit who is not allowed to transmigrate (reincarnate) is, of course, a way of seeing the matter that BB would probably consider to be an outrageous lie and slander. From his standpoint he probably sees himself as being a loyal servant of the sun gods, and would consider that his being blocked from reincarnation is a byproduct of the takeover of the reincarnation process by the Judeo-Christian God that he says occurred sometime in the past. Up until that time he was probably rolling right along. Since then, he would probably see himself as being a soldier behind enemy lines, in hiding and waiting for a chance to help the war effort. Either way, from what I can tell, he would move from person to person, probably seeking a sympathetic soul like yours who also hates the Judeo-Christian God.
4. If BB is a Dybbuk, when did he become one? We can’t tell when control of the reincarnation process switched, but if the growth of mono-theism after Jesus is an indication, it has been around 2,000 years.
5. Is BB evil for using you in his plans to re-take control of the reincarnation process on behalf of the sun gods? Not as he would think of the matter. For him it is part of the war effort on behalf of the sun gods, and besides, even though you are not going to be the being he intends to come back as, you would still be serving the sun gods (which you want to do anyway), would be coming back in another lifetime at some point, and would probably be rewarded when the sun gods take over (including being allowed to be part of their plans for a “better” world).
6. Are the sun gods local or from another star system? Beats me. However, I don’t really doubt that they can travel relatively instantaneously across vast distances, though we really have no idea how they do it accept that it is “in the light”.
7. Do I believe they are gods that I should worship? No. I still believe they are part of the other lesser “gods” (Elohim) that were created to serve the most high God. Likewise, I believe they are referenced in the Old Testament as such, and that they are in rebellion against the true God. However, I don’t dislike you for your reverence for them, though I do think you are deceived and misguided (and also realize that you think the same things about me). Hence, I hope that we can continue to be friends no matter what the future may bring.
Cordially,
S&S
