Changes

Q: Could you relate that same type of discussion to our [[economic]] systems because all of us have to operate in this [[competitive]] [[capitalistic]] society that contains all the things that you are warning us about. Could you describe how you foresee the economic systems changing?

Ham: There are differing [[schools]] of [[thought]] on this issue. Most see the [[gradual]] spread of [[capitalism]] over the world, over the now impoverished areas with the gradual diminishment of armed conflicts. It is at this time a very great [[obstacle]] and it is entwined with capitalism and the capitalist idea also. So there is a link between these two concepts which might be called [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survival_of_the_fittest survival of the fittest] or the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Darwinism strongest or the most ruthless]. Some see that the diminishment of armed [[conflict]] therefore cannot come without the basic [[modification]] of [[capitalism]]. There is always a struggle between the [[ideals]] of economic [[freedom]] and the need to temper unbridled [[capitalism]] which feeds and contributes to the basest [[instincts]] of [[mankind]]. These are great [[problems]], and we watch with great interest how the next few decades will play out. I wish I could be more specific.

Q: Ham is there a message I can take with me to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holland Holland]?

Q: Ham is there a message I can take with me to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holland Holland]?

Ham: I understand what you are asking. Yes of course, the [[correcting time]], the spiritual intervention time [[encompasses]] the world and all its peoples. Yes, if you are asking if there will be teaching groups like this there, my answer is there are some already in [[existence]]. There are many people from many walks of life in your country who are receiving messages and yet are [[reluctant]] to discuss these things or to gather with others. You have such an [[openness]] and [[ability]] to act as [[focal point]] and center for others to [[gravitate]] toward. In this [[function]], you can bring comfort to others who are yet in [[confusion]] about what they are experiencing at this time. Yes, there is much work to be done for the greater [[good]] of [[mankind]] and this you have always [[desired]] in your heart to do. Throughout the following year, you will meet many people and be drawn into new circumstances that will help you in this [[journey]], this endeavor, to aid the [[weak]]. Be therefore open to the Father's gentle [[leading]] and you will find new [[wonders]] spread before you like never before. Is this helping?

Ham: No, I cannot answer this specific question. There are many times when human beings are lifted to the world's [[stage]] and then [[retired]] for a [[purpose]]. I would say that this was the case here, but the greater [[purpose]] and the greater [[wisdom]] of it all is vastly beyond my meager [[understanding]] of your [[Part 3|world's history]].
