Question: I have more Biblical related questions. A certain subject that is talked about in the Church popped into my head when reading the last entry on your site. (January 15, 2015) The subject I’m referring to is “Rapture.” All though the word itself has never been in any English translations that I have seen, it is still a very talked about thing amongst Christians. The part that Higgins said that reminded me of it was this:
“They will either be caught up in the mass consciousness…”
The “caught up” part is what is commonly used to reference “The Rapture” in the Bible. The verse is 1 Thessalonians 4:17, “Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.”
I was wondering if Higgins could shed some light on this verse and if what they have stated about “caught up in the mass consciousness” is the same thing as the verse or two different things entirely?
Higgins: Rapture and mass consciousness are two different things. Mass consciousness is human thought that gathers like a storm. When the mass consciousness is still small regarding a subject it is like a dust devil whirling around a plowed field. When the mass consciousness expands it becomes a becomes more powerful, like a tornado. The greater the expansion the greater the power of the mass consciousness.
For example, the news reports a school shooting. Many people watch it and now within the mass consciousness a metaphorical dust devil of thought springs to life. Another school shooting occurs and is reported on the news. Many people watch it. Now, the thought that occurs adds to the thoughts that came before and the ‘dust devil’ grows. The more thought that is offered upon the topic the more powerful the topic is within the mass consciousness. Because human behavior is influenced by the power of this consciousness we expect to see an increase in school shootings.
If news sources focused upon all the good things that happen from day-to-day, the power of human thoughts that would be stimulated would quickly shift the current violent paradigm on Earth to a gentler, more thoughtfully supportive one.

Note from Cheryl: I wrote The Kindness Paradigm for this reason. If reading the book stimulates positive thought then through the mass consciousness humans will begin to shift their actions towards the upliftment of others. The eventual result being a thriving, prospering humanity.
The Kindness Paradigm is available on Amazon.
