from Jesus:
I would like to
explain the true meaning behind the statement that I came to fulfill
the law and the prophets. I am aware that some Christians have used
this statement to reason that the fulfillment of the tradition of the
prophets, meaning the delivery of the word of God through an individual
human being, came to an end with my ministry. I can understand why people
would draw this conclusion, and I do not condemn anyone for believing
this idea. Yet, I must tell you that the idea is incorrect.
When I referred to “the Law and the Prophets,” I referred
to a specific period, a specific spiritual cycle, in earth’s history.
That spiritual cycle began with the exodus from Egypt.
The spiritual teaching that served as a guiding rod for this cycle was
the law of Moses. This law was given with the hope that by applying
the law people would raise their consciousness. At the end of the spiritual
cycle, people would be ready to receive a higher law. Therefore, the
fulfillment of the cycle that I referred to as the law and the prophets
was the bringing forth of the higher law that I did indeed bring forth
in the sermon on the mount and other teachings. In other words, by fulfilling
the law and the prophets, I initiated the next 2,000 year cycle. This
did not mean that I came to bring an end to the delivery of the living
word of God.
The delivery of the living word of God has been happening for as long
as there have been people on this planet. As long as people are willing
to raise their consciousness so that they can be the open door for the
delivery of that word, the delivery of the living word of God will continue
indefinitely. I had no intention whatsoever of putting a stop to the
delivery of the living word. I think the proof should be the very fact
that I continued to appear to my disciples after my resurrection.
I hope these words will not fall on deaf ears and that my followers,
those who claim to be Christians, will open their minds and hearts to
the living word of God as it is being delivered today and will be delivered
in the future.
As I said to Saul on the road to Damascus, I now say to you: “Stop
kicking against the pricks.”
