from Jesus:
I have already given
some teachings on this in the answer to another question,
but I will give further teachings here.
If you by the expression “returning in the physical” mean
that I will descend into a normal physical body, be born of a woman
and grow to adult age, then the answer is a clear no. I will not take
embodiment again.
I will, however, as I have been doing on a regular basis for the past
2,000 years, continue to appear to people in various ways. In some cases,
I do appear in a body that to people seems like a regular physical body.
You will note that when I appeared to Thomas and allowed him to feel
my wounds that body was, at least to a person in Thomas’ state
of consciousness, indistinguishable from a regular physical body.
You are right that the main element of the second coming is that many
people will reach personal Christhood. My main message on this website
is that I came to be an example for all people to follow. If I am to
be successful as a teacher, then people must dare to follow in my footsteps.
Another important consideration is that unless a person has attained
some level of personal Christhood, he or she would not be able to recognize
me even if I did appear in the physical. You will notice that many orthodox
Christians have interpreted the passage “And then if any man shall
say to you, lo, here is Christ; or, lo, he is there; believe him not.”
to mean that any appearance of Jesus Christ is a false appearance. Therefore,
such people simply would not be able to recognize me or accept my Presence
even if I did appear to them. Many of them would consider such an apparition
as the work of the devil.
As I said many times 2,000 years ago, let those who have ears hear,
let those who have eyes see. It takes a person with a certain degree
of Christhood to recognize the living Christ. When I asked Peter, “Who
do you say I am,” he answered “thou art the Christ”
and I said that flesh and blood, meaning the lower state of consciousness,
the carnal mind, had not revealed that to him.
Unless you have attained some degree of Christhood, you will not be
able to recognize the living Christ even if I appear physically before
you. Likewise, you would not be able to recognize the living Christ
if he spoke through one of your brothers or sisters. Therefore, blessed
are those who recognize the living Christ hiding behind the words on
this website.
