The Aloki: Cherubic Guardians of Souls and the Akashic Records
Introduction The Aloki are a distinct order within the cherubic hierarchy, entrusted with one of the most profound responsibilities in the divine economy: guiding souls through the portal of death and safeguarding the Akashic Records. Unlike other angelic orders whose functions are more widely documented in scripture or mystical literature, the Aloki are known primarily through esoteric traditions and visionary accounts. They are not mythic constructs but real beings whose work is essential to the continuity of spiritual justice and cosmic memory.

The Relation & Differences Between Lucifer, Samael, Azazel, Azrael & Beelzebub
Lucifer, Samael, Azazel, Azrael, and Beelzebub are distinct but often overlapping figures in Jewish, Christian, and Islamic traditions. Lucifer is the fallen archangel associated with pride and rebellion; Samael is the accuser and angel of death in Jewish lore; Azazel is linked to the scapegoat ritual and later demonized as a fallen angel; Azrael is the angel of death in Islam and sometimes Judaism; and Beelzebub originates as a Philistine deity, later reinterpreted as a prince of demons. Another angel that deals in death and transition is the cherub subset of Aloki. They help guide souls over are the keepers of the akashic records. Their roles differ—Lucifer embodies rebellion, Samael destruction, Azazel corruption, Azrael transition of souls, and Beelzebub demonic leadership—but they are often conflated in later demonologies.

Augustine’s Seed Principles (Rationes Seminales) and Secondary Causation
St. Augustine’s rationes seminales (“seed principles”) describe how God created the world with latent potentialities—seeds of future forms—that unfold over time. This idea connects to the theological notion of secondary causation, where God is the primary cause of creation but allows natural processes to act as secondary causes. Together, these concepts provide a framework for understanding creation as both divinely sustained and dynamically unfolding. I personally feel that this principle is laid out clearly in Genesis.

How Science and the Bible Can Complement Each Other—With Evolution and Quantum Physics in View
The supposed “conflict” between science and faith is largely a modern myth. Historically, many scientists—including Isaac Newton, Johannes Kepler, and James Clerk Maxwell—saw their work as “thinking God’s thoughts after Him.” Theologians likewise welcomed careful study of nature as a way of understanding God’s creation. A fruitful framework for this relationship is the “two books” model: God reveals Himself in Scripture (the Book of Scripture) and in the created order (the Book of Nature). Properly read, these cannot contradict, since truth is unified.

Recognizing Awakening as a Summoning
Recognizing Awakening as a Summoning Summary: Awakening is best understood not as a gift or sign of superiority, but as a summoning back to source. It is the process of ego loosening its grip, surrendering to faith, and accepting the journey home.

“I’m Proud to Be an American” is Antichristian Nationalism
I have always felt a little cringey whenever I hear Lee Greenwood belting out "God Bless the U.S.A." out on the radio or at events. Although it strokes the ego of a large section of the U.S.A. populance, it is NOT a Christian song, and it doesn't manifest or support God's values.

The Summoning of the Spirit: Awakening Beyond Ego
Introduction The language of “awakening” has become popular in modern spirituality. It often carries connotations of uniqueness, superiority, or specialness—suggesting that those who awaken are somehow elevated above others. Yet this framing risks reinforcing the very ego structures awakening seeks to dissolve. A deeper understanding reveals awakening not as a badge of distinction but as a summoning: a call from source, from the eternal heart, to return home. This essay explores awakening as summoning, examining the role of ego, the nature of surrender, and the journey of faith, drawing on spiritual traditions, psychology, and lived examples.
