The
master key to overcoming sin
And so, there is another quote in the Bible which says that the sin
against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven. But the reality is,
that it shall not be forgiven until it is forsaken. And you see, my
beloved, when you forsake the sin, the rejection of the Holy Ghost,
then you immediately become one with the Holy Spirit. And then your
sin is forgiven because you are no more the same person that sinned.
You have become MORE. And you see, this is the reality that we have
been trying to tell you in many round-about ways.
You are who you think you are—until you think you are MORE.
And when you realize and accept that you are MORE, the old self –
the limited self – has died. And you have been reborn of the
Spirit—when you accept the Spirit, which comes to you to set
you free from that limited sense of identity. And so you see, those
who speak against the Holy Spirit, those who speak against the WORD,
do so because they are not willing to change their consciousness.
And it is their consciousness, as I explained earlier, that keeps
them outside the kingdom.
And so, what does it mean that the sin against the Holy Spirit shall
not be forgiven? Well, my beloved, the traditional image of the Christian
churches – of the remote being in the sky – makes it seem
like it is God or Christ or the Holy Spirit who has to forgive your
sin. But it is not so. It is YOU who have to forgive your sin by forsaking
it, by changing your state of consciousness.
And the moment you change that state of consciousness, you are free
of the old consciousness. And it was the old consciousness that was
the real sin, not the outer actions—not even the outer actions
of persecuting the Living Christ or killing him or his followers.
All these things can be forgiven the moment you are willing to change
yourself, to change your perspective, to let go of the false spirits—the
multitude of spirits, the legion of spirits of duality that pull you
hither and yon into identification with the things of this world.
The moment you are willing to let them go and come into oneness with
the one Spirit, well then you are free of the former self. You are
no more that being.
My beloved, there is a saying that no fallen angel has ever been redeemed.
And it is true. Because as long as you see yourself as a fallen angel,
you cannot redeem yourself, you cannot enter the kingdom of God. So
therefore, you must let the identity of a fallen being – or
a sinner – you must let it die, so that you – the Conscious
You – is reborn into a new identity. Do you see the reality
here?
You cannot grasp this truth with the intellect
As long as you think you are separate from God, you cannot enter God’s
kingdom. Only at the moment you let that separate identity die—at
that moment will you be in the kingdom. This is the reality that I
had to express in veiled parables, for people were not ready to understand
the deeper teachings. Perhaps you feel like you are not ready to understand
them today.
But I tell you again, your heart can understand it if you are willing
to listen and not override it with the intellect. You see, my beloved,
I am deliberately giving you a teaching here which can seem confusing.
And I do this to confound your intellect. Do not sit there and try
to grasp this with the intellect. Do not sit there and think, “What
did he really mean? What is he really saying? How can I fit this into
my old belief system? How can I fit this into my mental box?”
[Laughter]
You see, my beloved, this is what the scribes and Pharisees did. And
that is why they always used the intellectual mind, the analytical
mind, to compare it to something else. When I stood before them and
gave them the Living Word, they would immediately compare what I said
and did to something else in their tradition. And that is why –
because of their attachment to that tradition – they had
to reject me because I went too far beyond their tradition.
And so they used the excuse that I could not possibly be the Messiah,
for if I represented God I would truly stay within the boundaries
defined by the old word of God—the word of God in their scriptures.
But you see, that word – the moment it was given in the physical
octave, the moment it became written down – at that moment it
became the dead word. And that is why they used the dead word to reject
the Living Word.
But you see, my beloved, you can use a scripture to open your heart
to the Living Word that comes to you from inside, and many people
have done this to various degrees. I see constantly Christians who
study the Bible and they have these “Aha” experiences,
where they are open to the Spirit. And they do make progress, but
I also see that these people have an attachment to certain doctrines
that they believe are beyond questioning.
And so I can give them, the Holy Spirit can give them, insights that
fall within the boundaries that they have set. But if the Holy Spirit
tries to give them an insight that goes beyond those boundaries, then
they will reject it as a false spirit. They will reject me as a false
Christ—as they reject me on my website when they encounter it,
and they encounter that all of a sudden this Jesus on this website
is saying something beyond the Jesus they know from scripture or the
Jesus their minister interprets for them, by having come up with a
tradition that is now exactly the same dead tradition that the scribes
and Pharisees used to reject me. Yet, they claim that this is the
true tradition of Christ. And they use their dead tradition to reject
the Living Christ once again.
Aah my beloved, I am getting ahead of myself. For this is the subject
of my next discourse. And I will allow you time to digest this release
before I go into the next one. But you should sense from my voice
my eagerness to bring forth this teaching in the physical octave,
where people can study it. And where – if they are willing
– it can trigger that inner realization, where they realize
that this is precisely what they always knew in their heart. And now
because they recognize that, because they hear it spoken, they can
say, “Ah I can let go of that outer source that denied the Living
Christ, and now I can accept what I have always known in my heart.”
So, my beloved, once again, thank you for your attention until I shall
speak to you again, for I have much more to share with you from my
heart of hearts.
