I was in Rome recently, when God said, “Get up, we’re going to the Colosseum today.” I was eager to explore, it didn’t take much to rouse me.
The day was a perfect 72 degrees and I just couldn’t stop taking photos at every turn.
Marble and stone architecture, at the sheer size and scale of masonry in this ancient city, was a gasping experience. I fell in love with Rome and it seemed to love me back.
When I arrived at the Colosseum, God said, “sit” and scribe. So the following is what I was told to tell you about the colossal ancient ruin.
God says:
The Colosseum was not built for Gladiators, it was built to organize slaves into a market way and then trade them in a bidding war between merchants and royals from different countries. It wasn’t just for sports.
The reason such a huge center was needed is that the center was an international trade location. Much like conferences are held today.
Slaves were a major investment in the day and represented a hierarchy of the cultural center.
Those who were not slaves owned slaves and slaves were among themselves very competitive to get the best of the owners.
Their life comfort depended on them becoming property to the wealthiest. They needed to be the prettiest and the strongest. If they were traded among the wealthy class the became well known with reputations that precede them. If they were educated slaves, they would be responsible for caring for the children. They had an easier life as well.
Master/slave relationships were cultivated. When a slave was new to a community he/she made it their responsibility to make the community love them. Gladiators were stars but they were slaves nonetheless.”
Sondra: Africans were not traded as slaves until the 17th century, so who were the slaves that were traded at the Colosseum?
God: Jews, Christians, Tiberians (Tiberians were a Jewish sect originating from the Israeli city of Tiberius. They were highly prized for their intellectual strength and penchant for languages.) And many other locations in the Mediterranean that had large enclaves of Jews and Christians.
Photos from my recent tour, from Greece, Naples, Rome, Paris, London.
One of my favorite movies of all time was Gladiator. And he truly was a slave fighting for his life, integrity and honor. It feels accurate that the Colosseum would be used for more than just “the games”. I can actually picture the people being jostled about and hear people shouting over each other to be heard above the crowd.
Also, Linda, if you look at other photos of the location, you can see what you describe hearing, too. It’s kind of eerie. This Godscribed content opened my eyes to this time in history more than ever.
Hi Sondra, I met you in Sunvalley and have been a client. I love what you have wrote and wanted to also say you were right on with your “reading”. I have learned that interpretation sometimes is mixed up in our own expectations so standing back and listening with fresh “eyes” often shows the true path. I am very grateful for your insights and always look forward to your newsletters. I will be getting another appointment soon as I have had much happen and look forward to the next “step up” to ascension! Sending Love and Light to you!! Pam
Hi Pam! I’m happy to hear so much is unfolding. You know, that’s exactly why I God insists every reading is recorded. The mind that hears it in the first sitting, is a different mind that listens in the next.
Thank you for sharing that you look forward to my newsletters, that means so much to me, I can’t tell you how much. I’m looking forward to seeing your name pop up for your next session. xo, Sondra
I am learning that I must stand up for myself, to deal with chronic pain. I must not let my subconscious thoughts, emotions, and beliefs about myself control my life. My culture, my parents, and my childhood religion did not support my intellectual and emotional freedom, so now I must work hard to stand up for myself (to myself).
I like that, Ann. May I recommend something else? I have the same issues as you with pain. So I use a few techniques, including taking Lyrica, which helps, but is expensive and requires a doctor’s script.
But always remember, your chronic pain is a result of childhood traumas, beset upon you so that you are physically sensitive. This is what makes you psychic and empathetic.
Here’s one thought to think the most: “I am the strength of a thousand days. I am the source of my discomfort and the source of my warmth. I bring warmth to my bones and comfort to my soul. In the earth, I shall not make myself. I shall make myself of heaven. These are the words that make me whole, the words I gain from wholeness.”
I hope that helps. xo, Sondra
When you wrote this I intuititively knew the slaves were not of African slaves. I think Hollywood wanted the colleseum to be more romanticized than the truth. Being enslaved is from not thinking for ourselves and not speaking up to those who go along with the masses? learning the truth is freedom?

So often, in Source Talks and private conversations, God talks about humans being enslaved. It’s a real issue with God. Freedom is more than an idea, it really is what we need to know as our identity. No government, no family, no human trait need to define our freedoms. Only our minds. You got a question? Let’s ask Source. xo, Sondra
