I’ve been excited for this second part!
My theory is that Casey met an angel as a child who granted him a request, and Casey said he wanted to help people. Then God granted him the ability to diagnose medical conditions and prescribe treatments. It might be fitting to say that God gave him psychic ability to be used for this end, which is interesting because God also could have given him the power to perform miraculous healing if He desired, but he didn’t . Eventually, Casey tried to use this ability for other things, but got inaccurate results because that was not the gift he was meant to receive. When the first guy came along asking him to answer esoteric questions, there should have been no reason to assume Casey had that ability to answer those questions, just because he had the ability to diagnose medical conditions.
This story reminds me a little of King Solomon who asked God for Wisdom. God made him the wisest man of all, but King Solomon still used some of his God-given gifts for other ends and so let idolatry wiggle it’s way into Israel.
Interesting points to ponder👍.
You should read about the demons Solomon tried to tame. Went well...at first. Then it went poorly. Very.
Remember kids, Edgar Cayce never introduced a single jot of new knowledge to the world. Everything was regurgitated from existing writings and positions and none of his predictions were either unique or came true. All of his main predictions for example the 1929 crash, existed outside of Cayce's visions and his pole reversal prediction for example was based on the works of 3 published scientists almost 2 decades earlier, none of which came true and we now know it can take 7000 years to fully shift poles, it doesn't happen on a date, on a year or even in a century. He recycled knowledge to a gullible and uneducated audience and used his knowledge of the bible to make rough 'predictions' based on the human condition. He never brought anything to the table that wasn't already known. What does that tell you?
Isn’t speaking an unknown language, like Italian, be strong evidence of supernatural and possible evil involvement?
Speaking a foreign language is a sign something preternatural is involved, but that doesn't tell you whether it's good or neutral or evil. The early Christians, including the apostles, spoke with other tongues.
@@JimmyAkin thank you for the clarification!
Them Hollywood's movies can get you pretty good.
Jimmy, I’m hoping that you’ll do a deep dive into Atlantis and the Sphinx of course, but really into the lost civilization topic. There is loads of interesting information being analyzed by people like Randall Carlson and others that point to prehistory being much more advanced. Some of which seems to reinforce the Genesis flood narratives to a degree. Maybe some of Edgar Cayce’s Egypt/Atlantis stuff was slightly correct… slightly.
I second this. I watch Jimmy Corsetti's Bright Insight channel. Not all of it is sound and rigorous, but he makes some interesting claims that would be great for Akin to engage.
As someone who was into the New Age stuff, I read a lot about Edgar Casey. I concluded that his reading the Bible every year was an important part of why he had such abilities. So, I did that and after just my first cover to cover reading of the Bible, I knew I had to return to the Catholic Church.
I always thought that Edgar Casey could have become a great saint if he had entered the church. Instead he fell into the trap of the parlor games and deceptions of the evil one. Sad, that it's likely Satan got a soul that should be now enjoying the beatific vision.
Lisa, in the fall of 1967 I had just started my freshman year at Catholic University when suddenly there was no Latin Mass. It simply disappeared. I walked out of a silly "folk Mass" and that was it for me; my faith was gone. Living like a sort of hippie, I eventually became exposed to New Age beliefs and immediately, unquestioningly accepted them. I believed they helped me feel closer to God; that these ideas and practices were "genuine" while the Church was false. I knew someone well who "studied" astrology and was a longtime member of the A.R.E. I myself even joined a "mystery school" that had strong Masonic influences. Somehow by the grace of God I eventually returned to the Church after a 40+ year absence. The only good thing, I suppose, was that I completely missed the years of the worst liturgical abuse.
Cayce was warned never to give more than 3 readings a day.During WW2, he was swamped with concerned people about their MIA family members.He started giving 6 or 7 readings a day, resulting in a massive heart attack.
He died serving others.Can you claim to do the same for your fellow man?
You obviously have little of the Christ consciousness=love/empathy & self sacrifice.
🤦🏻♀️
@@tr7b410don’t it makes you wonder why such illogical people would be on this platform. All dogma and no brains.
🤦♀️
I have wondered about Cayce over the years. He seems to have been exceptionally gifted with with knowledge retention & wisdom. I don't think he is a fraud. I have honestly wondered if some of his visions may have been more of a preview of future movies. I am not making fun of him. He seems to have some remarkable accuracy with his predictions, the father of holistic medicine. But he seems to have some inconsistencies too. Some of his errors are large. And I think some of his visions may been "remote viewing" movie-reals in the future. PS: I do not believe in reincarnation. So that part seems to be another large error too.
Great! I have to say tho, that some of Cayce’s date for cataclysms could be in the 21st century - ie he said ‘36 rather than 1936 for some earth changes
Edgar Cayce is the greatest psychic in American history.
So if Cayce's talent was similar to remote veiwing, when asked about past lives he might view the overlay of what the client wanted to hear rather than a past life that didn't exist.
This was an amazing show!
Jimmy! Glad I just found your CZcams channel - Used to listen to the radio show you cohosted for callers with faith based questions, and really like this format as well!
Glad you're enjoying the show! You can also listen to the faith-based one at CZcams.com/catholiccom God bless you!
I had a dream this was coming…
Nice show. Will check out Jimmy Akin's Mysterious World again. Good info. Thanks! Good critical thinking!
As I remember from 'there is a river', the reason why Cayce could not recall his sessions was because he was effectively unconscious during them...Sugrue recounts one occasion when he was examined by a number of doctors while in trance, a blade was inserted under his finger nail and the nail lifted off...Cayce showed not response...so we can conclude he was indeed unconscious!
I’ve been waiting all week…
This was another great episode! good job guys
I thing Edgar Cayce was a man with a special gift from God, but he eventually turned from the right way, because of pride or other and was sadly influenced by that guy with all that Astrological crap and reincarnation.
There's more than the mid-Atlantic ridge. One of the most compelling pieces of archaeology put forth by Atlantean believers is the Bimini Road. Sometimes referred to as the Bimini Wall, the Bimini Road is an underwater rock formation located just off the coast of the Bahamian island of North Bimini.
Wild how much Edgar Casey as a young man resembles David Wilcock present day. 😯😲🧐
Absolutely! 😳
This new age garbage nearly took my soul. It took a couple of serious and tragic events to pull me out of it.
Besides, he may have been able to foresee things, it was probably satanic influence.
How likely is it that Clement of Rome's letter to the Corinthians is using nosism? The answer obviously has implications for the debate over the historical origin of the papacy.
Fascinating episode. Happy to see you will be doing episodes on topics that are popular on the Bright Insight channel like Gobekli Tepe, Atlantis, and the Sphinx.
What was the original language? Was it Koine Greek?
@@LostArchivist Considering 1st century and Corinth being in Greece, I believe it would be same Greek as Paul's letter to Corinthians or NT in general. Of course, we don't have original but believe to be Greek with Latin copies.
@@tonyl3762 Ah, well if they can be cross-referenced with other works of the time period in Greek that we do have available and espescially (if they are extant), other works by St.Clement, we may be able to confirm if he was or not. Alternatively, we could see if the royal we in that sens even existed back as an institution of governance then. If it does not, it would seem unlikely St.Clement was using it in such a form, unless evidence he or the early Church inspired the practice. Give the nature of the Church as the Catholic model grants may be possible if it does not predate Her. Though this does not prove St.Clement was, it does mean finding the Church inspiring the practice of the royal we may also be further proof of a head shepherd speaking on behalf of all the shepherds as one sees the Hply Father do in the Catholic Church today.
Basically I am saying, I do not know, but we may have a couple of viable routes to find out with reasonable certainty if history preserved the information. This can process can also potentially uncover additional warrants for the early Church possessing a function we can identify as papacy-shaped.
Perhaps our original language was angelic not in words of any ethnic language? Perhaps mankind's original language was of a form of love forgotten or true and innocent or pure and innocent telepathy. Perhaps very little was ever needed as man was content to be a part of creation?
(1) The issue of spectacular “misses” emerging after a run of apparent medical “hits” brought wine tasters to my mind. Wine tasters can become so confident in their “skills” that they begin to “detect” all sorts of characteristics in the wines they sample; everything from the acidity of the dirt the grapes were grown in to the altitude of the crop, etc. Analysis has repeatedly shown that this is bogus, but I think they begin to trust these hunches because of a sort of self-confirmation bias. They are respected wine tasters, after all, so why shouldn’t they trust their own instincts? Could this not be a plausible explanation for Casey’s big misses later in his career? He starts off with success on more “mundane” things (medical issues, current events) and so he grows increasingly trusting of whatever pops into his head? After all, he “is” a psychic, right?
(2) I really would like to know your thoughts on Salem, Jimmy. October is a perfect time, thematically, for an episode on the Witch Trials, and after studying the subject in college, I think there may be more there than meets the modern, skeptical eye.
From my understanding there is a lot of evidence that real witchcraft was being practiced at least in many cases. I hate it when people outright dismiss the whole case as hysteria.
@@erin6083 exactly! I know that in the witch cases that preceded Salem, in England, many openly admitted to practicing witchcraft.
@@ricdimarco1499 Yes! And even in Salem there is strong evidence that it took place, for instance scrying practices where girls were trying to determine which boys they would marry. It was real.
One of my ancestors and his sons accused a neighbor of witchcraft in Salem. The ancestor is Thomas Fuller, an immigrant from Wales who married the native-born Rachel Bush. Her parents had come from the Isle of Wight. The accusation came about because their son-in-law died suddenly. He was buried, but questions of the cause of death troubled the Fuller family, and Thomas, along with his sons, recalled something a neighbor had said or done. The body was exhumed, and was found to be completely pale above, but bruised heavily all along the back. Of course this was from the blood settling to the lowest parts of the body as it lay in the ground, but they didn't know that. They took it as a sign of witchcraft. And so the neighbor was taken to court. You can read the case online if you wish. I'm just going to skip to the fact that the neighbor was a QUAKER, as were nearly all of the accused. They weren't witches. They were just different from the Puritans, very modern, allowing women to handle finances and speak in the church assembly. Funny end note: I was initially distressed to learn this fact about my ancestors, and while I was going through the emotions, I went on a day trip with someone who wanted to stop at a Quaker cemetery along the way back home. It was still in use, but had been established in the early 1800s. We started looking at the grave markers in the oldest section, going row by row, but on the way to that end of the cemetery, I felt a strong draw to go up the third row from the end, to the 4th or 5th grave from the far end of the row. I held myself back because I didn't want to miss any of the grave markers. When I got to the grave in question, I thought, "Ok, let's see what we've got. Why am I drawn to this grave?" And then I was surprised to see that the interred person was one Phebe Fuller, and her newborn infant, who didn't live very long. I looked Phebe up when I got home, and learned that she had married a descendant of the very same Thomas who had accused his Quaker neighbor of witchcraft. Phebe's husband moved away from the Quaker settlement shortly after she died, but he remained a Quaker. I don't know if he knew about his ancestor's role in the Salem witch trials. What I found when I looked more closely, as I noted above, is that nearly everyone who was accused of witchcraft was in fact Quaker. There's nothing much mysterious here. The servant Tituba might have taught the girls the potion and spell, and they might have eaten rye on which that certain fungus was growing, but the bottom line is that they focused on accusing Quakers.
the akashic record is the eternal knowledge record where throughout out history polymaths achieved their knowledge by connecting to universal knowledge or akasha you can translate it by mere verbal meaning and absolutely no mention of the cradle of civilization persia and Mesopotamia area hide as much as you could
This was an incredible story. It seemed very compelling up until the point where he starts to talk about history, and the true nature of reality.
Best taken as a cautionary tale IMHO. Even those who perform miracles in God`s Name can be led astay.
How was he led astray? What happened?
Great two part series. I would love to see something on Mercy Brown.
There is a bunch that have been arround since almost the beginning giving diviners info.
His healing abilities were more amazing than anything else he said or dead.
Jesus had only one follow up from the lepers, yet we know from the Bible that ten were made clean.
So... Ethereum = distributed akashic record
The word "hypnotic" in this video
is misleading.
There is a river.
My dad bought me and my siblings a copy. I never read it and it bothered him. 😂
I feel the river, I don’t need to read the book…I feel the book. 🦋🌈✨
Never charged anyone a dime for his readings. A very humble man. He was the real deal.
In part 1, I think Jimmy says Cayce changes his mind and starts charging at some point but clearly not enough to get rich.
Edgar Cayce
It sounds to me like these two guys believe in magic. From what I can gather these two accept that physics are real of various kinds. I call BS here, this is wishful thinking. Maybe he was just a fraud???
This guy used demons!
