Discourse
1. My true message
Do not reject my love
Jesus: Our Father has given you free will, and he has
made it a law in heaven that no one is allowed to violate the free will
of a human being. I love my Father, and I respect his will. Therefore,
I respect your will.
I love you, and I desire you to experience the fullness of my love for
you. Yet, if you choose to reject me and to reject my love, then I must
simply wait until you make a better decision.
However, I do not have to wait in silence. I have the option of speaking
through those who have chosen not to reject me. I am the open door which
no human can shut. No human being can turn off the still small voice
that speaks in the heart. No one can completely silence my voice. Therefore,
if someone decides to listen to his or her inner voice and to acknowledge
where that voice comes from, I can speak through that person and describe
another facet of the unlimited being of God.
Some people choose to ignore the inner voice, to deny that voice or
to make themselves so busy with the things of this world that they have
no attention left over for me. Some people have ignored their inner
voice for so long that they think they can no longer hear me. Therefore,
I must speak to these people through an outer voice that they can hear
and read.
This is not the way I desire it to be. I want to speak to you directly
in your own heart, and I want you to be able to hear my voice. I want
to have a direct, personal communion with you that no human person or
institution can limit or distort.
Therefore, you must not allow these teachings to replace your inner
voice. You must use these teachings only as an inspiration, not as a
doctrine. You must let these teachings help you realize that by tuning
in to your inner voice, you can hear me directly.
You can commune with me
So many people have allowed themselves to believe that they cannot know
or experience me directly and that they must go through some outer organization
or doctrine. I am not here to condemn or find fault with any organization
or doctrine. Yet, I must point out to you that you have the capacity
to commune with me in your heart.
An outer organization or teaching has one purpose and one purpose only,
namely to help you rise to a level of consciousness where you can commune
directly with me, your Jesus. If the organization fulfills that purpose,
all is well. If it does not, then it has shut me out, and therefore
it can have no part with me.
Human beings have fallen into a lower state of consciousness, and they
need help to get back on their spiritual feet. A person who has fallen
and broken a leg might need a set of crutches to learn how to walk again.
Before you have learned to walk on your own, you can gain great help
and support from using crutches. Yet, when you have grown strong and
learned to hold your balance, you must decide to take that first step
without the crutches. If you insist on holding on to the crutches, you
will limit your ability to walk in the light of my Presence.
There is a way that seems right onto a human, but the end thereof is
the way of death. The false way is the belief that you can reach me
only through someone or something outside yourself.
There is also a straight and narrow way that leads to eternal life.
The true way is an inner walk with me. These teachings (as any other
teaching about me) are not the way. They are meant to point you towards
the inner path of the heart. Open your mind and heart to me, and I will
show you the true path. Follow that path, and you will make it back
home to our Father’s kingdom, where I am waiting for you with
open arms and a heart that overflows with a very personal love for you.
The key to salvation
So many people think that salvation is a process over which they have
little or no influence. They think it can only happen through grace
or some kind of miracle. I am not saying that salvation does not involve
grace. Yet, you must understand that because of the Law of Free Will
no human being can be saved against his or her will. If you are to be
saved, you must decide that you are willing to be saved. You must decide
that you are worthy to be saved.
Neither God, nor I, can or will make that decision for you.
However, I can attempt to inspire you to make that decision, and that
is precisely why I am bringing forth these teachings.
William Shakespeare (one of my many mouthpieces) wrote a timeless play
about the Prince of Denmark. Hamlet’s most famous remark is: “To
be, or not to be, that is the question.” The inner meaning of
that question is that you must choose whether to be who you are or not
to be who you are. I hope you will absorb the following teachings and
allow them to help you discover who you truly are. I also hope that
in the end you will choose more wisely than Prince Hamlet. After all,
what is the death of a fictional prince compared to the death of a real
soul?
In his image and likeness
Many people have read the statement in Scripture that human beings were
created in the image and likeness of God. Few people have the courage
to consider what this statement truly means.
The barrier to a deeper understanding of this statement is that people
tend to reason backwards. They have become self-centered instead of
God-centered. They imagine that if God created them in his image, then
God must be like the human beings they presently know. Most people fail
to realize that this is not so.
You were originally created in the image and likeness of God, but you
are not presently expressing that image. You have, by using your free
will in a way that was not intended by God, created a human being that
is different from the spiritual being that God created.
What does it truly mean that you were originally created in the image
and likeness of God?
God is the creator. To create, you must have two qualities:
- You must have
the ability to envision or imagine what you can create. You must be
able to imagine your options.
- You must have
the ability to choose which one of the options you want to manifest.
God creates by taking
his own formless being and giving it form. God can envision many different
forms, but to create anything God must choose one particular option.
God can create a universe in which planets are flat, and God can create
a universe in which planets are round. However, even God cannot create
a universe in which planets are flat and round at the same time, because
one form excludes the other.
When God created you in his image and likeness, he gave you his own
qualities. He gave you imagination and free will. After endowing you
with these qualities, God sent you into this particular universe as
an extension of himself/herself.
It is extremely important for you to understand that you are not sent
here against your free will. You are here because you chose to come
here. You are here because your soul desired to be a part of God’s
creation and to express the qualities of God here on this planet.
Unfortunately, many people have forgotten that original desire, that
original decision, of their souls. That loss of memory is the only real
problem on planet earth!
If you want to escape the prison represented by the limitations of this
world, then you must restore your original memory of who you are. When
you regain that memory, you must decide to express your true identity.
However, you cannot express something that you do not know, because
no one, not God and not a son or daughter of God, can create that which
they cannot envision.
I am a spiritual teacher, and I have chosen to remain with this planet
out of love for you and your brothers and sisters in spirit. It is my
deepest desire to see you recognize the fullness of who you are as a
spiritual being instead of the limited, mortal being that you currently
think you are.
Rise above mortality!
How can I possibly help you escape the limited, mortal state of consciousness
that is presently entrapping your mind? I must somehow inspire you to
look beyond that state of consciousness. Perhaps it might help you to
understand why you find yourself in that state of consciousness?
Let us consider how a spiritual being, created in the image and likeness
of God, could possibly descend into the state of consciousness that
is currently dominating life on planet earth.
To understand this mystery of mysteries, you only need to recognize
that God gave you imagination and free will and that God did not limit
his gifts. God gave you the ability to imagine anything, even things
that are different from or in opposition to God’s original vision
for this universe. God also gave you the ability to choose to believe
and create anything you want, even things that are different from or
in opposition to God’s original vision or will for this universe.
In other words, God gave you the ability to create your own reality,
even a reality that is different from what God originally envisioned
for you.
Many devoutly religious people, be they Christians on non-Christians,
look at the atrocities happening all over this planet and find it difficult
to understand how God could possibly have created a world like the one
they live in. Yet, because they are afraid to look beyond a particular
outer doctrine, their only option is to reason that God must have willed
it so.
Some people accept the will of God, while others reject God and anything
related to God. My beloved hearts, both of these reactions are based
on an incomplete understanding of reality. This is another example of
human beings using their present state of consciousness to reason backwards
and thereby project human qualities onto God.
I am an unlimited cosmic being.
I reside in my Father’s kingdom.
I know my Father, and I know his original vision for this creation.
God did not desire to have you experience a life dominated by misery,
limitations and suffering. When God created planet earth, God envisioned
a perfect planet in which souls could grow in understanding of their
individuality and in which they could express their creative abilities
in a way that did not limit themselves or harm others.
Yet, you must understand that God respects his own laws. He gave you
unlimited imagination and unlimited free will. You have the capacity
to imagine that which is limited, that which is not based on love even
that which is dark or evil. You have the ability to choose to focus
your attention on imperfection. Yet, it is a law of God that you will
create what you allow your attention to dwell upon. If you focus your
attention on imperfect forms, then you will inevitably begin to create
those imperfect forms. The reason being that you create through the
power of your imagination and attention.
When God created this universe, the first act of creation was the statement:
“Let there be light!” Light is the basic substance from
which everything in this universe is created. God’s light is like
a lump of clay. God creates by shaping the formless clay into a particular
form. God creates by envisioning a particular image and then allowing
his light to flow into that image until the light manifests as a material
form.
You are created in the image and likeness of God. You do not yet have
the full creative abilities of God, yet you create in the same way that
God does. You create by allowing your attention to focus on a particular
image. God’s light is constantly flowing through your consciousness
(or you would not be alive). God’s light obediently takes on the
form of whatever image your mind is focused upon. If you hold your attention
on a particular form for a sufficient period of time, you will manifest
that form in your outer world. Hold your image on mortality, limitation
and suffering, and you will experience those things in your life. Hold
your attention on any imperfect image, and you will manifest imperfection
in your life.
The dilemma expressed by Hamlet is meant to illustrate the basic fact
that you can never stop creating. Hamlet did not want to act, yet by
not acting, he brought about his own death. In their present state of
consciousness, many people do not want to create. Yet, whether you create
consciously or unconsciously, you are still creating. God gave you free
will, and you cannot turn off that gift; you cannot stop making choices.
If you ignore or deny your ability to create perfection, you are still
making a choice.
Therefore, choose life.
Choose the perfection of God over the imperfection of the lower consciousness.
You cannot stop creating, but you can choose what to create.
God did not create imperfection
The basic fact about life on planet earth is that God has not created
evil and God has not created imperfection, limitations and suffering.
These things were created by human beings. These things manifested in
the material world because human beings made the choice to focus their
attention on imperfection.
For many people, this statement might seem brutal, but it only seems
so to those who are not willing to take responsibility for their own
lives. Throughout history, so many people have desired to blame someone
else for their misery.
So many people seek to blame other people, be it their parents or the
leaders of society, for their situation. The tendency to blame others
for your personal situation is nothing more than an attempt to escape
personal responsibility and accountability. It is an attempt to justify
an unwillingness to change your attitude towards and your understanding
of life.
What is the ultimate escape from accountability? It is to place blame
upon someone that you believe to be completely beyond your influence.
It is to blame an authority figure that you believe is far above yourself.
If the authority figure has created your present situation, and if you
have no influence over that authority figure, then you cannot possibly
have any personal responsibility for your situation, can you? So what
is the ultimate authority figure upon which human beings can place blame?
It is, naturally, God himself.
If God was the one who created your misery, then you have no personal
accountability, and there is nothing you can personally do to change
the situation. Therefore, you do not have to change your beliefs or
your attitude towards life. You can simply continue to live in the illusion
that there is nothing you could possibly do to change yourself, your
personal situation or your world.
So many people prefer to think that God has created their misery. They
do not want to admit that their situation is self-created and that only
they can uncreate it. They do not want to admit this because they do
not want to change themselves. It is a fundamental law that you cannot
change your world without changing yourself. If you are serious about
improving your outer situation, you must begin by changing your inner
situation. You must change your understanding of life, your beliefs
about life and your attitude towards life.
It is my sincere and loving hope that these teachings will inspire you
to go through that personal transformation. If you will allow me to
help you, it will be my supreme joy to do so. However, I can only help
you if you are willing to let go of ideas and beliefs that are out of
touch with reality.
Tough love
I am fully aware that some people have accepted an image of me that
will cause them to feel that the real Jesus could not possibly be this
direct and outspoken. They have accepted a touchy-feely image of me
that has little to do with the real Jesus. I have several comments on
this false image.
Over 2,000 years ago, I gave my life to bring forth the same teachings
that I have just given you. Those teachings have systematically been
distorted and destroyed. If even a small number of people had heeded
my original teachings, this planet would have been a much different
place today. After having waited for 2,000 years, I simply don’t
have time for niceties. I do not have time to beat around the bush.
This is the time to face reality, and therefore I must give people the
truth about their situation.
I am indeed a master of love, yet I have mastered all qualities of love,
even tough love. Would it be truly loving to allow people to remain
in ignorance and thereby lose their souls?
I think not!
I might remind you that 2,000 years ago I said: “I came not to
bring peace, but a sword.” The sword that I came to bring 2,000
years ago, and that I come to bring again today, is the sword of truth
which cleaves the real from the unreal.
The ultimate lie found on this planet is the belief that human beings
have not created their own situation. The ultimate truth is that the
conditions found on this planet are entirely the creation of human beings.
Therefore, the only way that circumstances could possibly improve is
that human beings take responsibility for their own actions and decide
that they will begin to create perfection instead of continuing to create
imperfection.
God never desired to see the misery and suffering found on this planet.
God does not desire to see the present conditions continue indefinitely.
God desires to see drastic and positive change on this planet. Yet,
God has given you and everyone else free will, and therefore God cannot
bring about positive change unless you decide that you are willing to
be the instrument for bringing about that change by focusing your attention
on God’s perfection instead of continuing to focus your attention
on human imperfection.
You cannot serve two masters.
You cannot serve God and mammon.
You cannot serve God and the Prince of this world.
God is perfection and nothing but perfection.
Nothing imperfect ever originated from God.
Therefore, the current state of imperfection on earth did not originate
from God. God did not create your misery, and therefore you cannot expect
that God will somehow whisk it away through some miracle or a mysterious
thing called grace. Your personal misery, and all of the imperfections
found on this planet, can only be removed by those who created it. It
can only be removed when you, and a critical mass of other people, decide
to take their attention off imperfection and put it on the perfection
of God.
How can you focus on the perfection of God? You must ascend to a higher
level of consciousness than the relative, mortal, limited, carnal state
of consciousness in which most people have allowed themselves to descend.
I am here to call you up higher. The message I am giving today is the
same message I gave 2,000 years ago. The reason why I am giving the
same message today is that you and most other people have not heeded
my original message. This is largely due to the fact that my original
message was never made available to the general population. Yet times
have changed, and my original message can no longer remain hidden.
What is most amazing about human beings?
If you were to ask me what I find most amazing about human beings, I
would have to say that it is their ability to accept a completely false
idea and to believe that it represents an unquestionable truth. Human
beings have an ability to believe the unbelievable that surprises even
God. As for me, one of the most ridiculous ideas held by human beings
is that they could possibly kill the son of God or destroy his teachings.
Oh yes, they did kill my body 2,000 years ago. Oh yes, they have removed
my original teachings from the written account of my life. Yet, even
the fragmented accounts found in the Bible contain elements of my true
teachings and of the true, timeless teachings of God. The Bible states
that God has written his law in your inward parts. I too have written
my true teachings in the inward parts of your soul, and what I am presenting
on this site is simply a reminder of what you already know deep within
your soul.
I am the open door which no human can shut.
I am the voice of truth that will not forever be silenced or denied.
My truth, my true teaching, has been present in the collective consciousness
of humankind for more than 2,000 years. Regardless of the outer appearances,
the living truth that I brought to this planet has been working behind
the scenes. It has been working its way through the many layers of consciousness,
and it is now ready to burst forth on the screen of humankind’s
conscious awareness.
The powers of this world think that they have somehow thwarted my purpose
for coming to this planet. In reality, they have simply delayed the
widespread acceptance of my true teachings, and they have done so on
a very temporary basis (as measured with God’s sense of time).
If you are reading this, you belong to a group of people who have the
true teachings of Jesus Christ written in their souls. You only need
to bring those teachings into your outer memory and awareness. This
site is nothing but a reminder. This site can tell you nothing which
you do not already know at some level of your being. If it did, you
would not be able to grasp or accept it.
Simply recognize and accept the fact that you have the ability, an inherent
God-given ability as old as your soul, to know truth. You do not need
an outer authority figure or organization to define truth for you. My
truth is a living truth that cannot be confined to any doctrine or belief
system found on this planet. My truth is larger than life, at least
larger than the form of life known by most human beings in their present
state of consciousness.
Allow yourself to recognize that you have the ability to know truth
inside your own heart. Allow yourself to recognize and accept that you
have the true teachings of Jesus Christ written in your soul.
Make a decision that you will strive to bring that truth into your outer
awareness. As you begin to see that forgotten truth, accept it and have
the courage to act upon it.
I am Jesus Christ.
I desire to see you rise above the limitations you have come to accept.
I desire to see you free from mortality and suffering.
I desire to see you accept your true identity as an unlimited spiritual
being who can as easily create God’s perfection as you can create
the human imperfection that you currently experience.
Allow me to take you on a journey from your present level of consciousness
to a full recognition of your true identity.
I promise you that it will be the journey of a lifetime.
