THE FREE CATHOLIC CHURCH .

and THE COMMUNION OF UNITED RELIGIONS.
( Samfundet Förenta Religionerna ) and THE CORRESPONDENCE SCHOOL OF INTERRELIGIOUS
GNOSTIC FREEDOM . (Brevskolan för Interreligiös Gnostisk Frihet) are religious branches
which maintain and defend the original religious gifts of
- FREEDOM FROM BINDING DOGMAS "He has sent me to proclaim freedom...to
release...¨(Luke 4:18), "where the Spirit of the Lord is , there is freedom (2 Cor
3:17)
- SACRAMENTS FREE FROM CONDITIONS. Freely you have received. Freely give
(Matt 10:8), "I am the bread that came down from heaven" (John 6.41)
- INTERRELIGIOUS GNOSTIC FREEDOM for "knowledge of the secrets of the
kingdom of Heaven" (Matt 13:11, 16:19),"We speak of God´s secret wisdom"(1
Cor 2:7)
TO BE TRULY CATHOLIC (kata+holos) and ECUMENICAL (oikumene, the
habitable world) means universal, all-embracing. We ask all half-"catholic" and
half-"ecumenical" organisations to unite in such an intercatholic and
interecumenical work as we have. Their half-"ecumenical" councils have tried
controlling dogmas and anathemas against us and against all minorities which have dared to
speak in more liberating ways about the parables of religions and to give sacraments to
non-dogmatic seekers and pioneers.
THE COMMON DOGMATIC LIMITS have made people
indoctrinated, brainwashed and against free scientific questioning. Jesus, Moses, Buddha,
Mohammed and all true prophets have given both childlike faith with parables and secrets
of heaven. Such hidden divine timeless wisdom, "Gnosis of Agape" is still to be
found in all religions though veiled and obscured. "We are entrusted with the
mysteries of God" (1 Cor 4:1, Matt 16:19, Luk 11:52). But we have to use parables for
the secrets.
"YOU ARE GODS". That is one "secret" in the Old
Testament. "CHRIST IN YOU" is the same "secret" in the New Testament.
(Col 1:27). The hidden eternal nature of man and of everything is mentioned as a secret in
all religions. In eastern languages: Tao, Atma, Krishna, the eternal Buddha-nature.
Compare even what science says about "sacral king"-parables. Be free to
contemplate your inner nature as "personal, impersonal, male, female, monistic,
dualistic" etc.
CHRIST is a word with many meanings: our inner all-one-nature, an
incarnation of a divine aspect, a prophet. Christ is believed by some to be of the same
substance as the "Father". Some believe that we are all of the same eternal
substance. Some believe that Jesus is just an older soul or as an older brother. We do
inspire free seeking, knowing that there are many "keys". (Matt 16.19).
THE MOTHER OF GOD is another secret . We contemplate freely if St. Mary is just the human mother of
Jesus? Or if she is even a symbol or representative of a heavenly Mother. Is she just an
elder soul, a heavenly helping sister or saint? Jesus says in the Gospel according to the
Hebrews: "My mother the Holy Ghost..." That is a typical gnostic expression.
SAINTS in the sense more perfect souls are mentioned in all
religions and can inspire us even if many are partly fancied. We recommend you to study and compare them with heart and head. THE TRUE PROPHETS
are saints of God. Jesus could not among the Jews of his time openly say that all
religions are from the same God though veiled and misunderstood. Christ does not abolish
prophets of any religion (Matt 7:12). He mentions the same "law" in all
religions (Matt 7:12): "Do to others what you would have them to do for you". In
this new age we do talk with parables from all true religions and we shall slowly get
"UNITED RELIGIONS" among those most illuminated. In this new age we begin to
read even during the public divine services the gospels of both Christ, Moses and Buddha,
Lao-tse, Mohamed etc. In Bhagavad Gita we read how Krishna speaks about reincarnation:
"as a man casts off a worn-out garment and entereth a new". We do freely speak
about life before and after the death of the body, about resurrection through real
reincarnation here and about spiritual resurrection in higher consciousness.
"FALLEN ANGELS" are according to one parable-key
just our reincarnating souls. Before "creation" we live in the eternal (Eph 1:
4). In the beginning of time we live in a heavenly world "when the morning stars sing
together and all the sons of God shout for joy (Job 38:7). Down here God and we are later
wested in light and darkness (Isaiah 45:7). The opposites give resistance which helps us
to manifest our divine qualities. In a parable it is said that an angel wrestles with
Jacob and blesses him (Genesis 32:24). In an other parable it is said that Baalam is
hindered by an angel with a sword . That saves him. (Numbers 22:23). Angels are also said
to give inspiration for holy scriptures in the religions. But even the words of holy
angels and scriptures are limited. Books are called infallible but are full of limited
words. Childlike letter-faith is a beginning in religious life. But we must recommend the
seekers to question the letter, translations and interpretations. Many "keys"
ought to be tried (Matt 16:19, Luk 11:52, 2 Cor 4:3)
GNOSIS is mentioned in the Septuaginta-bible: Isaiah 11:9,
Hosea 6,6 , Job 33,16 and by S:t Paul. But how many can understand higher gnosis? Jesus
gives to Simon the title "Peter" which means interpreter of secret gnostic
truth."ON THE ROCK of truth shall religion be built" says Jesus to Simon who has
understood a TRUTH about Messias. And in some mysteries the "Peter" is sitting
on a symbolic rock but in vain if not the infallible Spirit talks through such a Peter
(Proverb 29:18, John 16:13, 1 Cor 2:10).
WORSHIP IN SPIRIT AND TRUTH says Jesus. But many prayers
are unspiritual egoistic PETITIONS that God shall change and give more. Areopagita,
"the father of Christian mysticism" tried to make people pray with AFFIRMATIVE
contemplation. And our Free Catholic Eucharist and other services are affirmative. Try
them. When Jesus prayed with words it was not with petition. His Hebraic language had
undefinable tense. His AGAPE-teaching ought to inspire all to interpret in an affirmative
way: "Father, you give bread, you do forgive..." MYSTICISM do we heir from
Areopagita, Eckehardt, the Gnostic gospels of Thomas and Pistis Sophia. But in this more
free age we can even openly recommend comparisons with mysticism from other prophetic
religions. Eastern YOGA is not always dangerous but sometimes high and healthy. RITUAL
mysticism does inspire many. Processions from the outer world to the temple and altar is
common at Christian services. We may compare the legend about the exodus of MOSES which is
foremost ritual. Moses was initiated in the Egyptian mysteries where there were
exodus-processions from the outer world to the inner temple which represented the promised
spiritual land. (The acts 7 22) We find equal exodus-processions in the later Israeli
religion. But is has been believed to be foremost an outer historic exodus. Science can
tell us more exodus-rituals. Even psychoanalytic research about exodus-dreams and
exodus-visions are illuminating. C G Jung was both scientist and Gnostic of our type and
his "Gnostic sermons to the dead" is a good education about our exodus from
matter to spirit. . ART may for many be an equal help to experience a spiritual exodus.
For some it is enough with a beautiful bysantic icon to experience how an inner eye can
open and let us watch something of the promised inner land.
OUR APOSTOLIC SACRAMENTAL SUCCESSION is inherited from the
original church and from its ancient Gnostic mysteries. All beings are priests and
priestesses but some of us do even choose to serve with sacramental priestordinations.
Some of us live in celibacy. Free gifts for our churchwork can be given to THE FREE
CATHOLIC foundation via the postal giro of the ecumenical bishop M Rev Elis Wikström,

THE CELEBRATION OF THE EUCHARIST at our round-table-altar
is central with us. The doctrine of transubstantiation is freely contemplated. We can say
that all souls are through many incarnations "transubstantiated to perfection.
Corresponding is a transubstantiation within sacramental bread and the wine in the grail
through an immediate incarnation of Christ. That is a mystery. It is experienced. As we
read in the Acts 2 17," your sons and daughters will prophesy,....see visions. Our SACRAMENTS of healing, baptism, confirmation, marriage
and priestordination are mystery-initiations. The sacrament of absolution is asked even at
funerals and it is given also to souls who are in conflict with common religions. It is
sometimes contemplated as a form of vicarious atonement. Such "grace" is not in
opposition to divine justice. Mental conceptions are often in conflict with spiritual
realities. About justice it is said (Gal 6.7) that we shall reap what we have sown. And
the doctrine of temporal sin and harvest ("karma" with eastern people) is often
misunderstood. We know that souls are purified
in this life and after. But not with endless suffering. The divine nature brings all to
love and wisdom and perfection. We produce literature about this and other religious
questions.
