Something to Remember
(Being Jesus Part XV)
Just so you know, I actually wanted the title of this article to be, “Something to Remember about Being Jesus” and here is what I believe will be valuable for all of us to keep in mind:
The great majority of the religious, who were around during the brief stay of the historical Jesus being here, physically, on this planet, were not favorably disposed toward him. In fact, we must not forget that it was this same “religious right” of his day that not only wanted him killed, but were, from one perspective, ultimately responsible for his death.
All of our warm fuzzy feelings about Jesus and his choice to die for us, not withstanding; those of us who take on the mantle of being Jesus, need to have a simple understanding: We will not be popular with the religious of whatever variety (“conservative” or “liberal”).
Some of that unpopularity will translate into hatred.
In the book, “The Unrecognized You, Discovered …What Now?” the draft of which I finished some eight months ago and, at which time Ryan Bruce posted it on the website, which can still be downloaded free (but is just now being prepared for the printed/bound version – and I am going through the questionable “joy” of doing the final proof for its being available through Amazon’s “Creative Space” distribution division), I made a rather, to me, startling comparison:
Some of the things Jesus said he hated and which are the exact things Christianity-at-large practices, I likened to Einstein’s formula E= mc2 in quasi-English: That is, Energy equals mass multiplied by the speed of light squared, the formula which opened the door to the atomic bomb that obliterated Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
What I basically said was that a rudimentary understanding of what that formula means does not translate into making anyone, so understanding, a nuclear physicist anymore than a rudimentary understanding of the meaning someone else places on who and what Jesus is or was translates into the resident power that makes for being Jesus.
Follow me here for a moment. I admitted to having read a book about physics four times through and remaining clueless – to the point I realized that I lacked even the knowledge of what the heck the definition of “mass” was in the formula.
…and here it is: “…Mass – in physics, the quantity of matter that a star, planet or other large body contains, not dependent on gravity and, therefore, different from, but proportional to its weight.” As I said in the book, that clears it up completely, right?
Now that I’ve read the definition again, I still remain clueless as to what it means in any practical terms. How about you?
Get plugged in, there is more power than you can imagine.
Back, again, to the resident power which does translate into being Jesus and I realize this is redundancy to the max. The thing to also remember is that what came out of the mouth of Jesus was, “It is not I that speaks these words and it is not I that performs the miracles …the SPIRIT-PARENT in me does the works.”
The resident power within you can neither be taught nor learned, but must be acquired and if you are talking about “your” ministry …then you have not yet acquired “it” because it isn’t an “it,” but rather our SPIRIT-PARENT at work in and through you performing HER/HIS/ITS ministry.
…and which Jesus provides ample instruction for receiving ever more of in HER/HIS/ITS presence and power.
