Channeled Facts about the Life and Times of Jesus
by Kirael, channeled by Rev. Fred Sterling, Honolulu Church of Light


Jesus had twelve female disciples in addition to his male apostles.
For many years Master Kirael has contended that if Leonardo da Vinci, painter of the famous Last Supper, had turned around in his mind's eye, he would have seen twelve women seated at a table opposite the males. Jesus had picked a dozen women who were vitally important to the movement and the understanding of his ministry. The women congregated late at night while everyone was asleep. They were not to become famous but to serve Jesus' divine purpose.

A different view of the last supper...
The 12 women at the last supper created a lot of discomfort in the room because females would not normally be allowed to eat in the same room with men, let alone with the son of God.

The meal was held at the house of a relatively wealthy young man with servants, but Master Jesus chose to have no servants and asked to have them sent away. The meal was held upstairs in the house. It was customary to wash the feet prior to having a meal for both physical and spiritual reasons. When the disciples arrived, they were in a dither because there was no one to wash their feet.

They looked to see where the Master would sit and an outburst of confusion followed as they debated who would be seated next to the Master. Being seated next to the Master would indicate that you were the ranking energy, the closest to Jesus and therefore had the most power.

As they were arguing young Judah went and sat next to where the Master would sit. At that moment Judah did not know he was going to be the one to betray Jesus. They were still arguing about who would sit where when Master Jesus appeared in the doorway. He looked upon all the squabbling and noticed the feet had not been washed. He opened the doors and the male apostles were joined by the women. Master Jesus then set about washing the feet.

At one point in the meal, Jesus said softly to Judas, "Go do what you must do this night." Judah left but still did not know that he was the one to betray the Master. Because of his youth, he believed that the Master had the power to overcome the prophecy that he would die at this time. He told the guards where Master Jesus could be found because he believed the Master would raise his hand and they would immediately be felled.

Later on in the meal one disciple asked, "It is said you will die a violent death and why is that Master?" He answered, "If I am to die in any other way, my death would go unseen, perhaps. We cannot let that happen because it must be remembered at all times that I have come here on this journey to let you know about love and about healing."

Jesus upon the cross did not plead with God.
The Bible says that the final words of Jesus on the cross were: "Father, why have you forsaken me?" According to Master Kirael, what he actually said was, "Father, I have done what I have come to do. Accept my light back into your Light. Let this one called Jesus be left for the world to see" and he asked that his pain be lifted. Jesus hung from the cross for approximately nine hours.

Mary Magdalene was a highly educated individual.
As the daughter of a successful merchant, Mary Magdalene came from affluent background and was very well educated. She worked in the family business, conversed with many sea merchants, and gained a great deal of knowledge by studying the ships' logs that were filed with port authorities.

"Fortunately, Mary Magdalene was schooled at a very young age in the translation of these records...learning of worlds beyond a common person's imagination.... Her retention of this information was said to be flawless because she had...what would be considered today as "photographic memory."

"Mary Magdalene would eventually share all this knowledge with Jesus....In essence, Mary Magdalene gave Jesus the most modern conceptual education possible. They would spend long hours together, far into the night, going from one detail to the next.... This may explain why such a misconstrued picture would be painted of this female energy...."

About the Christ Light...
In most spiritual belief systems, there exists a single Creator force that creates all that ever was, all that is, and all that ever will be. Nothing exists outside of the All That Is and therefore everything in Creation is connected as One.

For the sake of clarity, the Christ Light is not to be confused with Jesus the man from Nazareth. The Christ Light, or the Christ Consciousness, is the thought of the Creator or the All That Is. Jesus carried the Christ Light within him throughout his life, and at the time of his baptism in the River Jordan became fully infused with the Christ Consciousness.

Spiritualists who honor Jesus consider him to be an ascended master, or one who has mastered this earthly dimension and has ascended into the realm of wise and omnipresent spirit beings such as Buddha, Lady Quan Yin, Saint Germaine and Mother Mary.

It is said that Jesus died for the sins of "we the people," yet from another perspective one might view his death as his choice to end a conflict -- not just between church and state, but within ourselves. The dramatic circumstances of his death may have been a symbol for all to see that, even in death, a statement that lasted thousands of years could be made about the nature of love.

Often religions see the world as a struggle between good and evil. Within the spiritual community, seekers often push themselves to see the truth beneath the struggle and find ways of healing our differences and celebrating our unity.
