Jesus,
October 23, 2005.
I am come that all might
have life and that they might have it more abundantly manifest. Truly,
I am the real Jesus, but I do not come to you today as the Jesus that
many people have known through the Christian churches, not even as
the Jesus that many of you have known through a previous dispensation
of the Great White Brotherhood.
I am come to you as the Living Christ and the emphasis is on the word
“living,” because I truly desire to impart to you the
flame of the Living Christ that never stands still. And so many of
the Christians out there in the world have built an idolatrous image
of me. And were I to tell them that the Living Christ never stands
still, they would immediately say, “But what about the statement
in the Bible which says, ‘Jesus Christ, the same yesterday,
today and forever’ (Hebrews 13:8)?”
Well my beloved hearts, it is not Jesus Christ that is the same yesterday,
today and forever, but the universal Christ consciousness. And the
universal Christ consciousness is the same in only one way—in
that it is always and forever one with God. And because God is a Living
God, God is constantly transcending itself. Your Creator is constantly
transcending itself, and thus the Christ consciousness is the same
yesterday, today and forever in that it is always one with God. But
because God is always becoming the more, then the Christ consciousness
is always becoming the more—and so is Jesus Christ.
No truth is infallible
I am the Living Christ. I am always becoming more. For I love my God,
and I want to experience all that God is. And I see that God is always
becoming more. And thus, if I truly love God, how could I not become
more in order to keep up with God’s self-transcendence and therefore
experience all that God is at any given moment?
I am come to give people life and to give it to them more abundantly.
And what does that truly mean? It means that the Living Christ always
seeks to get you to leave your nets of entanglements with your current
sense of identity – your current beliefs about the world, about
God, about the spiritual path, about the ascended masters –
so that you can come into oneness with us and therefore flow with
us in that moving River of Life that truly is the abundant life.
And thus, I must tell you that it never has been the goal of the representatives
of the Living Christ to bring forth any outer teaching that is absolutely
true, that is infallible or that could never be expanded upon or replaced
by a higher teaching. This has never – ever – been our
intent.
And watch your analytical minds who will say, “Well there must
be some truth that is absolute and infallible.” And I tell you,
there truly is a truth that is absolute and infallible, and it is
the absolute, ever self-transcending Living Truth of God. And that
truth can never be expressed in words or images in this world of form
because it is beyond form. It is beyond anything that was created.
And thus, you must realize that it is entirely possible that two religions
can have beliefs that seem to contradict each other yet both of them
were given by the Ascended Host. And why do we give beliefs that seem
to contradict each other? Well, we do it precisely because our goal
with a particular religion is to address people in a specific state
of consciousness and help them come to a higher level, help them come
out of that state of consciousness, so that they become more and thereby
get back in touch with the ongoing River of Life.
Know the real Jesus
Do you see what I am saying here? If a particular group of people
believe in a very limited concept of life, we cannot give them the
highest possible teaching that could be given at that moment. We must
give them a teaching that is not so far above their beliefs that they
cannot grasp or accept it. And thus, there are many times where we
give people a very limited teaching, but it is still above what they
have right now. And so you might say – with the human mind –
that if the Ascended Host tell different groups of people different
teachings that seem contradictory, then sometimes the Ascended Host
must be lying. But you see, our purpose is not to give an absolute,
infallible truth.
When the Living Christ comes to you, he comes to meet you at the level
of consciousness you are at. And therefore, he must shake you out
of your attachment to that state of consciousness. And in some cases
this can be done only by giving you a statement that is so startling
to your outer mind and your ego that you are literally jolted out
of your comfortability—that makes you unwilling to grow by going
within and reaching for a higher understanding from within yourself.
You just cling to that outer teaching, thinking it can give you everything
you need to know.
So my beloved, when we give a teaching, it is for your freedom. What
are we to do with a group of students who use the outer teaching to
actually put themselves in a mental box that is even more confining
than what they had before they found that teaching? What are we to
do to get these students to move on? Well, sometimes we must push
their buttons by giving them a statement that is so startling that
they say, “Oh, the ascended masters would never say that. Jesus
would never say that.”
But you see, the Jesus who would never say “that” is the
Jesus that you have confined to your own mental image of what Jesus
should be like. Therefore, that Jesus is the false hierarchy Jesus,
not the Living Christ. For the Living Christ will literally say to
you whatever is necessary to jolt you out of your current mental box
and get you back to the point where you are willing to think about
life and reach for the inner answers—reach for the key of knowledge.
Never stop asking
Ask and ye shall receive! How many times have we seen people who found
a true spiritual teaching, and then they thought that they no longer
needed to ask for directions from their Christ self, for now all they
needed to do was read the outer teaching at an intellectual level.
And therefore, I must tell you that there are people who claim to
be students of the ascended masters because they are in a particular
outer organization that we have sponsored. And yet these students
have literally said, not at a conscious level but at a subconscious
level, “Beloved Christ self, I don’t need you anymore.
I have the outer teaching. Beloved Jesus, I don’t need you anymore;
I will just study the Jesus that is depicted as a snapshot in the
outer teaching because I am comfortable with that Jesus.”
And what they are really saying is, “Jesus don’t disturb
me. I am comfortable and I want to stay where I am comfortable.”
This is the bane of religion on this planet—that it makes people
comfortable, thinking they will be saved because they are members
of that religion. And that is indeed why Saint Germain has determined
that it is time to shake up that state of consciousness. And I am
right there with him, for I too have had my fill of orthodox Christianity
and its rigidity and dogmatism.
Be willing to let me disturb you
Truly, those who are not willing to be disturbed are not my true followers.
And I must tell you that this very messenger once had a discussion
with a Lutheran priest** who believed in sincerity that when I came
to call my disciples and said, “Leave your nets, I will make
you fishers of men,” they did not instantly leave their nets
and follow me. “Oh,” the priest said, “they must
have had a least a year to put their things in order and prepare to
follow Christ.”
But you see, my beloved, my mission was only a total of three years.
There was no time for my disciples to take care of their worldly business.
I must tell you that when I called my disciples, I literally walked
up to them – they had never seen me before –
and I looked them straight in the eye and I said, “Leave your
nets and follow me,” and I turned around and walked away. And
those who did not follow me straight away did not become my disciples,
for that was the law at that point in time.
And although the requirements have been slackened somewhat –
because back then I had only three years and now we are in a more
ongoing cycle – I must tell you that although you can take
some time to step on to the inner path of Christhood, you cannot take
forever. There must come a point where you are willing to say, “Enough
is enough! I have had enough with that ego, and it is time that I
step on to the true path.”
When that time comes for you individually, you need to be alert, you
need to be aware, because truly your Christ self, myself, or another
ascended master will appear to you at inner levels. And you need to
be open to hearing our voice. And if you have the attachment to an
outer teaching or organization, you will reject us when we come to
you.
Do not reject the teacher
Imagine what would have happened if Mother Mary had rejected the angel
when he came and told her that she was to give birth to the Christ
child. What if she had said, “I don’t believe you are
real. I am perfectly happy living in my monastery. Leave me alone.”
Oh my beloved, then I would not have been born, would I? And so if
I come to you and say, “The Christ is ready to be born in your
heart,” and you say, “Leave me alone, I am comfortable,”
then the Christ will not be born in your heart. And thus, the second
coming will not occur on planet Earth. For it will take ten
thousand people who are willing to let the Christ be born in their
hearts to bring about that second coming that is the fulfillment of
the cycle of Pisces and therefore the open door to the Golden Age
of Aquarius.
It is time to step up to the plate and be on the inner path, and throw
away and leave behind anything that has become a net that no longer
catches fish but catches you and holds you back from plunging yourself
into the River of Life.
I am come that all might have life and that they might have it more
abundantly. But it does not mean that I, Jesus, will appear in the
sky and let the abundant life rain upon you from Heaven. Having the
abundant life means being in the abundant state of consciousness.
And that state of consciousness is perpetual self-transcendence. Truly,
there is nothing else. There is no substitute for self-transcendence.
