The
New Gospel. Book I. The choice to be
By Jesus Christ
1. The longing
1. I am Jesus Christ,
and I am come to set you free
2. I wish you were bound by iron chains.
The chains would mar your flesh,
and thus you would realize
that you were imprisoned.
If you know you are imprisoned,
you long for freedom.
Longing leads to a determination
to strive for freedom.
3. Unfortunately, you are bound
by chains of the mind.
You are imprisoned by invisible walls
of false ideas and false beliefs.
You are trapped in a state of consciousness
dominated by duality and relativity.
4. Because you do not realize
that you are imprisoned,
you do not even long for true freedom.
Where there is no longing,
there is no determination
to strive for freedom.
5. If you will go deeply within your heart,
you will realize that
beneath the level of conscious awareness
your soul has an inner longing.
Your God designed your soul
so that it can never be completely satisfied
with this material world.
Behind all of your outer desires and longings,
there is a longing for something more
than what this universe can offer.
6. You can cover this longing
with layers of desire
for the things of this world.
You can make yourself so busy
with the things of this world
that you forget your longing.
However, you cannot forever
silence the inner voice.
Allow yourself to recognize your inner longing.
It is the key to your salvation and inner peace.
7. I am Jesus Christ.
I am a spiritual teacher.
I am appointed by God to call all people home
to our Father’s kingdom.
Your inner longing is a longing for that kingdom.
As long as you deny or ignore this inner longing,
I cannot teach you.
I cannot lead you to that
for which you have no conscious longing.
8. The moment you consciously recognize
that you have an inner soul longing,
at that moment I can step into your life
and begin to work with you.
I can begin to show you the way
that leads to our Father’s kingdom,
the inner kingdom of inner peace.
2. God’s love
1. I am Jesus Christ,
and I am come to show you the way home.
It does not matter to me who you are.
It does not matter to me what you have done.
It does not matter to me what you have not done.
It does not matter to me what you believe.
It does not matter to me what you do not believe.
It does not matter to me who you think you are,
because I know who you truly are.
You are my brother or sister,
and I am here to lead you home.
2. I am here to show you
that our God is a God of love.
God loves you with a love that is unconditional.
No matter what you have done or have not done,
you have not lost God’s love.
3. You think you have lost God’s love.
You feel unworthy to receive God’s love.
However, the only thing that prevents you
from experiencing God’s love
is that you have used an outer excuse
to close the inner door to your Father’s love.
4. I am here to help you open the door,
the door in your heart
through which you can receive
your Father’s love.
5. I am here to help you open your mind
to your Father’s truth,
the Living Truth
of the Living Word that I am.
I am the open door which no human can shut,
I am the voice of living truth
which will not forever be silenced or ignored.
6. I come not to bring peace to you;
I come to bring a sword.
It is a sword of truth
that will cleave the real from the unreal
in your consciousness and world.
I come to disturb your sense that all is well
and make you realize that you are encaged
in a mental prison with invisible walls.
7. I come to disturb you,
so that you may recognize
that you do indeed need to be saved
and that in order to be saved
you need to come up higher
in consciousness.
8. You need to make the effort
to extricate yourself
from the mental prison
of relativity and duality.
You need to get off the way
that seems right onto a human,
but the end thereof
is the way of death.
9. You need to discover the true way,
the golden middle way,
of the Christ consciousness
that I am.
10. I am Jesus Christ,
and I am here to call my own.
Who are my own?
Who are my true brothers and sisters?
It is those who dare follow me;
those who choose to follow me.
None are excluded from following the way,
save those who exclude themselves
by their own choosing.
11. I cannot make the choice for you,
I can only show you the way
and then wait for your decision.
Come, let me show you the way.
3. Growth
1. No matter who you are;
no matter who you think you are,
you must grow.
No matter who you are;
no matter who you think you are,
you can grow.
2. Recognize two of the deadly lies.
One is that you cannot change.
The other is that you do not need to change.
Constant change, constant growth,
constant self transcendence is a law of God.
3. God is the creator,
and God never stops creating.
Creation is self transcendence.
Therefore, God is constantly transcending itself.
You too must be willing to transcend yourself.
4. Be not content with who you are.
Be not content in accepting the lies
that you cannot change
or that you have no need to change.
Growth is one of the basic laws of the universe.
The other basic law is the law of free will.
5. God gave you free will,
and no one in heaven
will ever violate your free will.
God wants you to grow
and to become all that you are.
However, God wants you to grow
out of your own free-will choosing.
God wants you to come home to his kingdom.
However, God wants you to come home
out of your own free-will choosing.
6. You can choose to accept the lie
that you cannot grow or do not need to grow.
However, if you do make that choice,
I can do nothing for you.
7. I am Jesus Christ.
The Father appointed me as the Savior.
Because of the law of free will,
I cannot save those
who do not want to be saved.
I cannot help those
who choose to believe in the lies that deny growth.
8. At the moment you make the decision
that you want to grow
and accept that you have the potential to grow,
at that moment I can work with you.
At that moment I will begin to show you the way.
9. Ask and you shall receive.
Seek and you shall find.
Knock and the door shall be opened.
God has not ignored you.
God has not abandoned you.
You have ignored God.
You have abandoned God,
because you made the choice
to close the door in your heart,
the door that leads to your Father’s kingdom.
10. I am Jesus Christ,
and I am here to show you the way home.
You have closed the door to me.
I am standing on the other side of that door.
Simply knock, and I will open the door for you.
I cannot open the door
until you make the choice to knock.
11. I am Jesus Christ,
and I am waiting for your decision;
I am waiting for your call.
4. The quest
1. You have knocked,
and I will begin to answer.
What is our task;
what is our quest?
Our task is to transform you
so that you can enter the straight and narrow gate
that leads to our Father’s kingdom.
2. That transformation
is a transformation in consciousness.
We must raise you
from your present level of consciousness,
a state of consciousness
dominated by relativity and duality.
We must raise you
into a state of consciousness
where you see that behind all outer manifestations
is the one reality of the one God.
3. From your viewpoint,
this task seems complex and overwhelming.
From my viewpoint,
this task is simple.
I know the task is doable,
as long as you are willing
to reach beyond
your current level of consciousness.
4. The task is simple
because I have already planted
the seed of my Living Word,
the seed of my Living Truth,
deep within your soul.
5. If you will make the choice
to nourish that seed,
it will begin to grow.
Over time,
much less time than you think,
that seed will ripen
and bear the fruit of knowledge,
the fruit of true knowledge
of who you are.
6. I am not here to make you
into someone or something that you are not.
I am here to help you
remember who you already are.
7. I am Jesus Christ,
and I know who I am.
I also know who you are.
If you will let me,
I will raise you to a level of awareness
where you too know who you are.
8. If you know your self,
you know all.
Let me show you the self
that is all in all.
5. Creation
1. In the beginning was God,
and God was without form.
Then, out of the void,
the formless one created light.
2. Light is the basic substance
that can be molded
into any imaginable form.
It is the cosmic clay
used by the master sculptor
to create worlds within worlds.
3. Light is created from God’s being.
Therefore, light is not separate from God.
Light is not different from God.
Light is a manifestation of God.
4. God used the power of the word
to mold light into form.
The word is an expression of God’s being.
Therefore, when the word molds light into form,
that form is not separate from God.
That form is not different from God.
That form is a manifestation of God.
Without God was not anything made that was made.
5. You live in a world in which everything has form.
You live in the World of Form.
Everything in the World of Form
is created from God’s substance, God’s light.
However, not everything was created directly by God.
6. From the beginning, God created conscious beings
in its image and likeness.
God first created two beings, Alpha and Omega.
These beings created other beings
as co-creators with God.
7. All of the co-creators were created
in the image and likeness of God.
Therefore, they have the capacity to create,
and they have the free will
to choose what to create.
Co-creators have individuality,
and they create by expressing that individuality.
8. My Father’s house has many mansions.
There are worlds within worlds.
Each world, each level of the World of Form,
was created by conscious beings
acting as co-creators with God.
9. You live in one part of the world form.
Your world is the material universe.
The material universe was created
by co-creators, called Elohim.
10. Planet earth was also created by Elohim.
It was created by using the laws of God,
and it was created as an expression
of the perfection of God.
11. Above the material universe are spiritual universes.
In the spiritual universes,
nothing can exist that violates
the law and the perfection of God.
If anything violates God’s law,
it will self-destruct.
12. All beings in the spiritual universes
have chosen to use their creativity
within the framework of God’s law.
Therefore, the spiritual universes express only perfection.
13. All co-creators were given the gift of free will.
Some co-creators chose to use that free will
to go against God’s law.
If these beings had remained
in the spiritual universes,
they would have destroyed themselves.
14. As an act of mercy,
God allowed these beings to descend
into the material universe.
As an act of mercy, God created the law
that in the material universe,
co-creators can go against God’s law
without immediately being destroyed
by that law.
Beings can create imperfection
without being destroyed by their own creation.
15. In the material universe,
a being can create that
which violates God’s law.
A being can create that
which does not express the perfection of God.
In the spiritual universes,
nothing imperfect can exist.
In the material universe,
imperfect forms can exist,
at least on a temporary basis.
6. Co-creation
1. When planet earth was created by Elohim,
it expressed the perfection of God.
However, Elohim did not finish
the creation of this planet.
2. Elohim created a number of conscious beings
to act as co-creators.
These co-creators were meant
to continue the creation of planet earth
within the framework of
God’s law and God’s perfection.
3. The co-creators created by Elohim
are what you call human beings.
You were created in God’s image and likeness,
and you have the capacity to co-create.
4. Human beings have used their free will
and their power to create
to go against the laws of God.
Therefore, the current conditions on planet earth
do not express the perfection of God.
5. God did not create limitations,
misery, pain and suffering.
God did not create death,
not even the death of the physical body,
the body your soul wears
as a temporary vehicle
in the material universe.
6. The imperfect conditions found on earth
were created by human beings.
Most people created imperfection out of ignorance.
Most people continue to create imperfection
out of ignorance.
7. Because of the law of free will,
God cannot force you to create perfection,
and God cannot force you to abandon ignorance.
God can only wait for you
to make a better decision.
8. If you want to change your personal life,
if you want to change your planet,
you must choose to strive for enlightenment
and true knowledge
so that you can stop creating imperfection
and start creating perfection.
9. God has given you free will,
and God’s law is absolute.
No one in heaven is allowed to violate
the free will of a human being.
If you continue to remain in ignorance,
and if you continue to create imperfection,
then we of the heavenly host
can only stand back and wait
for you to make a better decision.
10. We cannot force you.
We cannot make the choice for you.
We can only seek to inspire you
to attain knowledge of truth,
the truth that will set you free
so that you begin to create perfection
instead of imperfection.
11. If you choose to ignore our calling,
if you choose to remain ignorant,
you will continue to create imperfection,
and you will continue to harvest
that which you have sown.
12. Whatever you sow,
you must inevitably reap.
Sowing in ignorance will not prevent you
from reaping the consequences.
13. That which you create in ignorance
becomes your reality,
and your ignorance prevents you from seeing
that there is something beyond
the imperfection that imprisons you.
7. Accountability
1. Human beings are reluctant
to accept accountability
for their own situation.
It is so much easier
to blame that situation
upon someone or something
outside of yourself.
However, if you do not accept accountability,
then you give away your power
to personally change your situation.
2. You cannot control the world,
and you cannot control other people.
You cannot control God,
and you cannot control fate.
Therefore, if you think
that such external forces created your situation,
then you have no way to change your situation.
You are a victim of forces beyond your control,
and you will remain a victim
until you decide
to accept personal accountability.
3. The moment you consciously accept
that you have created your own situation,
at that very moment
you are empowered to change that situation.
4. You cannot change that
which you have not created.
However, you can change that
which you have created.
5. Changing what you have created is so simple.
You created imperfection out of ignorance.
Ignorance caused you to make imperfect choices.
Simply decide to strive for enlightenment,
and you will attain the foundation
for making better choices.
6. Overcoming imperfect choices
from the past
can be done by making better choices
in the present
