Without Disclosing My True Identity
now extant in the United States could human beings finally find a way to experience what
they are—the ultimate and most significant life form in the Universe.
Throughout the history of the earth’s inhabitants, the physically strong have ruled
the weak; and whereas the majority of people have been physically weak, the strong
minority have usually ruled and forced their will upon the majority. If, for example, one
lived in a situation upon earth where the laws and codes of a given society were forced
upon the individual at the end of a spear, sword, arrow, or gun, the human desire to
survive mortal existence inhibited one’s free will to act openly to achieve a state of true
happiness. In the type of environment where people “tow the line” in order to save their
lives or avoid imprisonment, one has an excuse for one’s actions: “I was doing the only
thing I could without being killed or imprisoned, even though I wouldn’t have chosen to do
it had I been given the liberty of choice.”
Joseph understood from his interactions with advanced beings—and even more so
from what he realized once he was given the ability to remember lives beyond his current
mortality—that the purpose of life upon this earth was ultimately to afford every human
being the experience to exercise unfettered free will. Only in this way—absent of all
memories before this life—could we prove to ourselves who we really are. Thus, in reference
to this stage of existence, ancient prophets, who did not fully disclose what they knew about
real truth, likened mortality to a “day of probation.”^32
Experiencing True Free Will
In order for free will to be uninhibited, humans must be given choices of action.^33 One
cannot have free will to choose one action over another unless a choice of action is provided.
Living in a perfect human world as newly created perfect humans, there was no other choice
of action but that which our creators provided us. Although we were allowed to do
practically anything our hearts desired, we could only do what we observed others doing or
were taught to do by our eternal mothers. We had no other experience to choose from, in
which to exercise our free will, except for that which we encountered in the advanced,
perfected human society of our creators.^34
Therefore, in a sense, we lacked the capacity to comprehend true free will. We did what
we were created to do: mimic our creators and others we observed. However, it would be
impossible to know the corresponding happiness associated with our foundationalization if we
had not experienced, first-hand, the corresponding unhappiness which comes from all things
imperfect—i.e., mortality. Only in a state where the choices of both “good” and “evil” are
provided could our free will be exercised properly to enable us to experience the benefits and
downfall of human nature.^35 If, by design (i.e., our foundationalization), our nature is most
comfortable being allowed to do whatever we want with our free will, then when someone,
anyone, or some entity, tries to inhibit this free will in an unrestricted environment, our reaction
is to naturally rebel.
Thus, being in need of the opportunity and environment in mortality to see what
happens when we are not forced to comply with someone else’s free will, advanced
monitors assigned to this solar system allowed the formation of the United States of
America, and with it, this perfect opportunity.^36 With its establishment, free will could
be tested and experienced more broadly than in any other present or prior conditions of
mortality; and in the end, we would know for ourselves if our free will would need to be
controlled or not.^37 IF, when given the choice of action, we did good to each other with
