Thus, our fear of God and the afterlife. We make up after-death beliefs BECAUSE we fear God AND death. Blindly believing that our Father created death. Life is Eternal and is not interrupted by death. God would be cruel if death were real.
It’s extremely frightening to believe that your creative source, “Our Father in Heaven” made a world where you have to someday die before you can experience Eternal Life. Jesus Christ PROVED to HIS DISCIPLES that death was a farce. The modern day Christian church believes that Salvation is salvation from the angry god of hellfire, and his everlasting torment. And they conceive that their beliefs can “save them” from him. (Hence, different denominations have different “beliefs.”)
“Hellfire” becomes a childish nightmare when you realize Jesus Christ RESURRECTED! and Salvation is SALVATION FROM a physical death and not an “eternal oven.” He did not save us from the angry despot god of hellfire, that god does not exist except in the minds of the sleeping children of God. Our Father does not punish His children for their lack of Spiritual knowledge.
Jesus Christ showed HIS DISCIPLES the power unconditional forgiveness has over our blind belief in death, BECAUSE we are Spirit. If we will UNCONDITIONALLY FORGIVE everyone all the time, the Holy Spirit WILL RENEW OUR MIND to an awareness that we have ONE FATHER Who is Spirit and that we also are Eternal Spirits.
Remember what was written at the outset, the teachings of Jesus Christ NOT UNDERSTOOD sound like madness. The Kingdom of God is within you just as it was recorded by Dr. Luke in the seventeenth chapter of verses twenty and twenty-one of his memoirs. Dr. Luke tells us Jesus is TELLING the religious establishment at that time that they had it ALL wrong. What they were looking for, “the promised land of Moses”, was within them, and It was not acquired after a physical bodily death.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. TOLD US the same thing Jesus Christ was TELLING the Sanhedrin when He said, “I saw the Promised Land!” IT IS WITHIN You!
Death becomes spiritually flawed for MANY REASONS when one realizes for themselves that the Kingdom of God is in fact within themselves. Our Father is Spirit. Therefore we are Spirit. Jesus Christ represented the Father and the Son when He was made flesh and dwelt among us. He came to prove to an oppressed generation that death was not of God, but of a sleeping Adam. A deep sleep fell on Adam but never does “the law” tell us that he woke up.
We sleep and dream that someday we will have to die like “every-BODY” else does. This is not the truth. Death is really nothing more than a false belief that tomorrow is real. We must begin to think differently, or “repent”, if we are to See the Kingdom that Jesus Christ told us 2000 years ago, was “at hand!”
Only “rich-fools” blindly believe in a tomorrow. Luke 12:13-21.
We must change the purpose of the world for ourselves. The purpose MUST BECOME to See the resurrected Jesus Christ before we “die” not after. If we have any other purpose we are wasting time. Not that time is our enemy. Time is not our enemy but if we waste it, it is not our friend. We must die to the belief that this would is our eternal home. Our Home is where OUR FATHER is. And Jesus Christ TOLD US that His Kingdom was within us!
How can we see and experience the resurrection of Jesus Christ now? This must be asked by every RADICAL SEEKER who has begun to think for themselves without generational family beliefs interfering with Seeing Jesus Christ. If His disciples saw Him after the crucifixion over 2000 years ago, why would He delay His second coming for His “modern day” disciples? Short answer, He doesn’t. We MUST FOLLOW AND PRACTICE HIS TEACHINGS, TO KNOW HIM!!
Jesus Christ is OUR EXAMPLE. We have modern day disciples who can disciple us, and one of them is the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. He walked the Christian walk. He was “Christ-like.” This made him able to change the course of history.
There is a psychological change that takes place when we surrender the belief in flesh and bone in favor of accepting; “I am spirit just like my Father.” This psychological change results in a more peaceful existence. You still see the world outside as ever changing, but WITHIN You, your peace abides in the Awareness of Christ and in awaiting His second coming. This only sounds foolish to a world where greed and war is common place. And this religious bigotry is propagated by world rulers who believe in division for monetary gain, never considering the lives they inflict with monumental suffering by their lack of faith in God, OUR FATHER.
The Apostle Paul tells us He died to Christ daily and to fight the good fight until Christ appears. This is not “after physical death language”, it is real time. Meaning, Jesus Christ didn’t leave us alone. That’s a lie of the devil, and you can KNOW the truth that sets you free if you are willing to Love as Jesus Christ loved us. We MUST learn how to love this way. We love as Jesus Christ loved us by implementing HIS teachings and putting them into PRATICAL APPLICATION in our own lives. We do this by willingly getting alone and going within in silence (prayer/meditation) seeking out the Holy Spirit within the mind; This results in you/us/we Loving yOur Lord yOur God with All yOur heart mind and soul. BY (asking for guidance) and loving your neighbor as your self, you will THEN SEE His Hand in your life by the miraculous events that begin to transpire in your experience, Luke 10:26-28.
Pray that the second coming comes soon.
