                                                                                    CHRIST

 

I am going to put down some scripture, that needs to gone over. The REASON I am putting them down, is because so many will not accept anything that doesn't have scripture behind it. But, for those who know, we are in the time where we have learned that the bible was written MAN; and that there is so much of it, that is in error. Now, I am not telling you to throw away your bibles, I am just saying that , even in the bible, we are told that it is DEAD LETER, UNTIL the Spirit gives understanding.

We are being led away from RELIGION. We are not RELIGIOUS people, or we shouldn't be, we are SPIRIT. IF you take into your thoughts, the statement that "we are SPIRIT", it will tell us a lot. A HUGH LOT!! But, more on this later.

Luke 9:20, " He said unto them, But whom say ye that I am? Peter answering said, the Christ of God." (Mt 16:16)

Acts 17:3, " And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three sabbath days reasoned with them out of the scriptures, opening and alleging that Christ must needs have suffered, and risen again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I preach unto you , is Christ."

Acts 9: 19-22, "And when he had received meat, he was strengthened. Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus. And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God. But all that heard him were amazed, and said; Is not this he that destroyed them which called on this name in Jerusalem, and came hiather for that intent, that he might bring them bound unto the chief priests? But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded the Jews which dwelt at Damascus, proving that THIS IS VERY CHRIST."

What we see in the above scriptures is that the flesh man, Jesus, was THE CHRIST. THE CHRIST OF GOD. That word "of" means, "out from within". So we now know that whatever "Christ" is, it came out from within God. When I speak of "Christ", I AM NOT SPEAKING ABOUT THE MAN JESUS. We MUST KNOW God AS HE IS, not looking backward to all that He has been. For how can we live in the now, the present Truth, if we are looking backward? Our problem has been, that we were not taught to live in the Present, in the NOW. I was taught to either look forward or to look backward. And do you know where that left God, in my life, in my thinking? OUT!! It left Him out of Who and What He was to me in the NOW. AND ALSO WHO I AM NOW!!

I am not going to make this a long and drawn out study, I am just going to write what I know needs to be written and leave it up to you, as to what you want to believe and BE. But remember that we are told, "Be established in PRESENT TRUTH...". Any other truth will leave us, stuck, stuck like a car in a mudpuddle. Stuck either in the past, or stuck with WAITING for the future. When like Eve, we CAN BE What and Who we are right now, but CHOOSE to be stuck. And whether anyone believes it or not, the choice IS up to us.

Ok, we saw that Christ was/is the Christ of God. So, let's look at a scripture that I use in almost EVERY study that I send out, HOPING that it will awaken some.

1TIMOTHY 3:16, "And WITHOUT CONTROVERSY great is the mystery of godliness; GOD MANIFEST IN THE FLESH;..." WHO manifest in the flesh? GOD DID. NOT THE MAN JESUS, GOD manifested; in a flesh body, and was called, Jesus. And when you read this scripture, EVERYTHING that it says He did, PUT THE WORD "GOD" in FRONT OF IT. Then think on it and you will say, "oh I thought it was Jesus, who was seen of angels; I thought it was Jesus, who was justified in the Spirit; I thought it was Jesus WHO PREACHED TO THE GENTILES; I thought it was Jesus who was believed on in the world; etc, etc". No, it was God!!

I won't write out the scripture, but if you have a living bible, PLEASE READ Philippians 2:5-7. Oh I will write it down, because it tells us SO CLEARLY WHO WAS THIS MAN THAT WE CALL JESUS, and have worshiped. (now let me say, YES, we were to know Jesus. We were to learn of Him. But we were, more importantly to KNOW WHO HE WAS. And once we KNEW HIM, we were to know Him NO MORE after the flesh; but are to KNOW HIM (GOD) AS HE NOW IS.

Philippians 2: 5-7, " Your attitude should be the kind that was shown us by Jesus Christ, who, THOUGH HE WAS GOD, did not demand and cling to his rights as God; BUT LAID ASIDE HIS MIGHTY POWER AND GLORY, TAKING THE DISGUISE OF A SLAVE AND BECOMING LIKE MEN...."

Since Jesus was God, in the disguse of man, we have to look a little closer at the "Christ OF God". Remember, "of" means , "out from within". So Christ HAS TO BE SOMETHING OUT FROM WITHIN GOD. Since Jesus was God, it cannot mean, God out from within God; so Christ has to be someting other than the anointing that Jesus walked under.

We were taught that the word "christ" is "christos" , in the Greek language. And christos meant "anointing". Now, whether we read in the Greek, English, Hebrew, Spanish, Dutch or whatever language we may speak, IT IS STILL DEAD LETTER UNTIL THE SPIRIT GIVES LIFE TO WHAT WE READ, OR UNDERSTANDING. Wouldn't you agree? It is not just the bible that is dead letter, it is the way we THINK that is dead, UNTIL the Spirit gives understanding. So, as I said, we were taught that "christos" means, anointing. But, WHAT IS ANOINTING? Have you really thought about it. Oh yes, we were taught that in the old days, it meant that a man was rubbed with oil. Even today, in Pentecost, what do they do? They place oil on your forehead. I hate to burst any bubbles, that all that oil does in grease up your forehead!! Sorry folks, but I am being honest with you.

Oil does not come out from within God. Let's lay aside RELIGION for a minute and give the Spirit a chance to teach us, HIS TRUTH. It is time that we lay aside our "toys" and receive Truth and mature, so that we are not those that it is said, "now that you should be teachers, you seek for someone to teach you again". I know some of you; and I know that you desire HIM. HIS TRUTH. And in order to KNOW Him, as Who He really is tody, we must know Truth, not religious folktales. Not ILLUSIONS of religion. We have been living an illusion all of our earthly life, but NOW Truth is RISING UP, from where? From WITHIN YOU!! That alone, should tell us something!

CHRIST IS THE LIFE OF GOD FLOWING THROUGH US!! CHRIST IS THE LIFE DESIRING TO COME FORTH AND BE SEEN IN THIS REALM! CHRIST IS THE LIFE OF ELOHIM, THE PLURAL GOD, WANTING TO COME FORTH. THERE IS ONLY ONE LIFE, AND THAT IS HIS LIFE. This is why we are told, "as He is in this world SO ARE WE". We ARE HIs Life. He is the life we live. He is us and we are Him. We are ONE. We are the Plural God. And we are being awakened to BE ALL THAT HE IS. Nothing is stopping us, except out beliefs. "as a man thinketh, so is he". The way we came out of Him, in chapter one of Genesis, IS WHAT WE ARE. WHAT WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN. NOTHING HAS CHANGED EXCEPT OUR THINKING, and we have become (or been living) what our thinking says we are. We are CHRIST on earth. Another way to say this is; we are the LIfe of God flowing throught these flesh bodies, here on earth.

We don't need oil put on us; we don't need a hand laid on us; no, we already are all that is needed, in fact, we should be GIVING OUT WHAT IS NEEDED TO OTHERS!! We need to BE Who we are. We need to let that LIFE flow, FREELY through us.

Earlier when I said, IF you take into your thoughts, the statement that "we are SPIRIT", it will tell us a lot. A HUGH LOT!! Think on this: for those who insist on scripture, read Ephesians 4:4 and allow it to speak by the Spirit that YOU ARE>

"THERE IS ONE SPIRIT". That Spirit is God. IF you are Spirit, what does that make you? IF Christ is His Life flowing through you, Who does that make you? Folks we have to turn loose of religion and allow the SPIRIT THAT WE ARE RISE UP WITHIN US and COME FORTH TO BE SEEN and to BE.

 

If Jesus was the Christ of God, then so are we. Because what that is saying is, "Jesus was the Life of God coming forth in a flesh body". And since we are the Spirit that is God, we are the Life of God coming forth in a flesh body. Amen

I leave these words with you, do with them as you will, IT IS YOUR CHOICE.

Love and blessings.
