This
Is not Your Grandfather’s Jesus
Was Jesus a spiritual revolutionary who came to
deliver us from the outer bondage of a religious establishment trying
to control people through fear and the inner bondage of the human ego?
Have many Christians overlooked the essential element of Jesus’
inner teachings, causing them to take a fear-based approach to Christianity
instead of the love-based approach taken by Jesus himself? Would Jesus
have challenged the rigidity of many modern Christian churches the same
way he challenged the religious authorities that crucified him?
These are
just some of the thought-provoking questions presented in the book,
The Secret Coming of Christ, by Kim Michaels.
The author presents a new look at the inner, spiritual teachings of
Jesus and states that most modern Christians have misunderstood the
second coming. He believes the second coming can happen only when a
critical mass of people embody the inner teachings that Jesus released
during the first coming. The scriptures demonstrate that Jesus forcefully
rebuked those who took a dogmatic approach to religion (Woe unto you
lawyers). When we take the spiritual approach taken by Jesus, we can
internalize his teachings and follow Paul’s call to “Let
this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus.”
The author believes many souls volunteered to help bring about the second
coming of Christ in this age. The book
seeks to help these souls understand the second coming as an interactive
event in which they have an essential role to play.
The book states that Jesus came to demonstrate a universal path to a
higher state of consciousness. His message transcends all sectarian
boundaries and cannot be confined to any man-made mental boxes. Therefore,
the inner message of Christ is as relevant today as it was 2,000 years
ago. Although this book will be provocative to some, it does provide
a fresh perspective on the inner teachings and the mission of Christ.
