Explosive growth and development occurs as we emphatically
enter and begin to progress in the new Divine Phase.
Philadelphia Network is established in Elijah Centre and it
becomes the avenue through which holistic community life is
expressed through out the entire organism. Embassies of Elijah
centre are formed out of what originally began to emerge as
"External Groups" of Elijah Centre. Embassies develop in the
United Kingdom, United States, Jamaica, Barbados, Belize,
South Africa and New Zealand. These Embassies are
connected to the base in Trinidad through decisive use of
cutting edge technology. The Trinidad base is now called the
Nexus and the entire global expression of Elijah centre is
called a Global Borderless Kingdom Community (GBKC). Elijah
Centre is re-designated as the Creative Core of the network
which is re-cast as Congress WBN in June of 2004. The former WBN
is now only one sector of the eight (8) sectors of a vast
Congress across the earth and Elijah Centre takes its place as
a fully recognized sector in the Congress. |
