The biblical book of Job reveals a God of Love

Job is an extremely symbolic narrative of the Broad Path back to God. (Jesus revealed the Narrow Path through the major events in his earthly life—see my blog entitled “Ascension.”) Lesson 16 of my book is an example of a metaphysical interpretation focusing on the hidden wisdom beneath the surface words.

Scripture Reading for this Lesson: Job 42:11-17

Jesus taught: “Your father is pleased to give you the kingdom.” 320 Job is now aware that the kingdom of God is synonymous with a higher level of consciousness.

Heretofore, Job felt separated from and powerless before a God that was hidden. This hidden God was unpredictable, prone to anger, and liable to strike human beings with all sorts of diseases and to deprive us of our basic needs. Formerly, Job knew only what he heard about God. Now that he could see and speak with Him, Job realized how incorrect his concept of God had been. Instead of striving to lift our consciousness to a higher plane, humanity anthropomorphizes God. The result is a God that must be feared because no one knows when we, like Job, will be walloped with “the thing that we greatly fear.” 321

The biblical book of Job is an excellent example of the need to search for the hidden wisdom beneath the surface words. I have found that a study of metaphysics, including esoteric astrology and numerology, is essential to reading the Bible at the level of the hidden wisdom. Below is an excerpt from Lesson 15 of my book, “Where Are You, God? A Metaphysical Interpretation of the Biblical Book of Job.” For free, you can download the entire book on my website: www.pathwaytoascension.com.

In my view, much harm has occurred as a result of a literal interpretation of this most important book. Our concept of “God As Love” withers, unless we seek the hidden wisdom in Job. As our planet moves into the “Shift of the Ages” (Gregg Braden), exploring the inner depths of the Bible will be a source of enlightenment and healing for many.

Scripture Reading for this Lesson: Job 42:1-11

Job is now a 5th degree Initiate. He looks back at his old way of life and recognizes the error thinking that predominated. As a result of his erroneous thought patterns and ignorance of Truth, Job was brought to his knees in anguish. God did not inflict the pain. Instead, Job’s suffering was the external manifestation of his own inner dis-ease.
