Once to Die?

                                                Re-embodiment

It is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment. (Bible, Hebrews 9:27)  In the book Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda (p172) we learn that; The early Christian church accepted the doctrine of reincarnation, which was expounded by the Gnostics and by numerous church fathers, including Clement of Alexandria, the celebrated Origen (both 3rd century), and St. Jerome (5th century). The doctrine was first declared a heresy in A.D. 553 by the Second Council of Constantinople. At that time many Christians thought the doctrine of reincarnation afforded man too ample a stage of time and space to encourage him to strive for immediate salvation. …The truth is that man reincarnates on earth until he has consciously regained his status as a son of God. George King reveals in his book The Nine Freedoms: Reincarnation is, in the eyes of the great Masters, not a theory, but an essential part of Divine Truth, an aspect which, sooner or later, must be taught by every major Religion on Earth. …Not for very much longer can the orthodox leaders of the Christian Religion suppress the existence of Truth regarding reincarnation. (p111) On this subject the Archangel Michael teaches us: In the hundreds and thousands of embodiments in which you have lived, similar to these, is the proof that mankind had forgotten their Source.
