Though most Christians belong to the Catholic Church (millions of 'em) it is by no means the only church. And within that Catholic Church there have always been various shades of belief from Franciscan to Jesuit.
Also the sacraments vary from church to church, from Mormon to Greek Orthodox. There are seven sacraments BTW.
The Petrene system is the corpse out of which the new Church will emerge. "At foot of ancient tree the new moss grows." It is an occult fact that new movements need to graft on to the old. Even the Roman Church latched on to an earlier powerful spiritual stream.
Some may wish to work within the old system in order to renew it (like the great Christian initiate Valentin Tomberg). Others are busy with the new. There are many authors who have begun the task of revealing the Christian Mysteries.
The members of the new Church will have a full ego awareness of the Christian Mysteries, as opposed to the soul wisdom which has heretofore sufficed.
I wouldn't suggest that those who are still at the stage of pure religious devotion be pushed into the realm of a full conscious understanding. It may be a shock.
But as time goes on we are called to be more and more conscious, not less. So we enter the world of knowledge- (true) Gnosis. This is the realm of spiritual science. (I must distinguish here between true Gnosis -Knowledge- and the false Gnosis- which is the Lucifer-Gnosis, found in such works as the "Gnostic" gospels.)
Earth to Heaven as opposed to Heaven to Earth as I see it. Those are our travelling plans.
"Not all trees may become Ash trees"- this means that not all Christians will go on to develop in the same way. Who would want that anyway? It would be terrifically boring.
