The Elders Among UsDue mainly to economics, in modern civilization a person beyond 55 years of age is expected to retire and abandon his of her place in the job market... and in society. Of course that new generations should have the chance to access employments and opportunities in whatever field of development they choose, but as a consequence of the world's lack of capability to generate enough possibilities for the new members of society, it casts aside the older ones in order to make space for the younger. The cynical claim that this is just natural selection at work. But the problem with this is, that we are not animals or plants but incarnated spirits, and this erroneous notion has generated an unjust and non deserved byproduct: Desdain for the old. Oh, yes... underestimation of the elder seems to be the prevailing custom among the young generations. Have you seen those irresponsible teen movies -which, by the way, are the ideas of middle-aged Hollywood execs- that excede what could be considered parody or humour, and which fall in the grotesque and alienating, insisting in the demotion of old age? As a result, old people get estranged by those that should give them respect and even admiration, and discrimination against the elder keeps going on. The spiritual Doctrine of our Father has teached us differently in all times and eras, from the First Era with Moses, to this Third one of the Holy Spirit. "Thou shalt rise up before the hoary (gray-haired) head, and honour the face of the old man, and fear thy God: I [am] the LORD." Lev. 19:32 "With the ancient [is] wisdom; and in length of days understanding." Job 12:12 "Children's children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers." Proverbs 17:6 "The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the grey head." Proverbs 20:29 "Hearken unto thy father that begat thee, and despise not thy mother when she is old." Proverbs 23:22 "Rebuke not an elder, but intreat [him] as a father;" 1 Timothy 5:1 "Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder." 1 Peter 5:5
The divine teachings of the Third Era, as contained in the Third Testament's compilation, explains all these furthermore: "I also speak about the elderly, those who long ago left the prime of their lives, and now they feel the cold of winter. As they grow older, they are lacking strength, the energy, and health; the work becomes heavy, their limbs turn sluggish, and their services are no longer needed for work." "Thus the elderly see themselves excluded from the struggle of the rest; they feel abandoned, and their heart, depressed, sinks with sadness and has to experience hardship, misery, hunger, and loneliness. I speak about them, because they also need your aid and comfort. Love them, O! My people! And you will have the right to sit at the great table of the spiritual banquet where I will say to you: "Blessed are you who, in imitation of the Master, were able to understand all those who suffer." "Have respect and love toward the mature and the elderly. You may discover in them the spirit who has already passed through the top of the mountain of life. Whatever the Earth had to offer, little or much, they have already received it. They expect nothing from it anymore. They place everything in the future which awaits their spirit; however, from among all men, they are the ones who have the most to give, because they have already gathered from the harvest all of what they sowed along their existence." The Book of The True Life
