Is Jesus our savior or brother?

Jesus, July 13, 2003.

 

I AM Jesus Christ and many of you have called me your Lord and Savior. Yet I tell you that many of you should call me brother, because I truly am your brother of Light. I come to help you understand that we are much closer than you think. So many of you have come to see me, and other ascended masters, as being above and beyond you, as being separated from you. It is now time for you to overcome this illusion and begin to accept who you truly are as one with us.

How can you be one with us? You can be one with us by recognizing that behind all outer appearances, your true identity is a particular God flame. Every ascended being, every God and Goddess sprang from a particular God flame. Every lifestream sprang from a particular God flame.

We have ascended because we discovered our God flame. We chose to merge with that God flame and thereby ascend to the spiritual realm. You too are of a particular God flame and you have the ability to discover your personal God flame. You also have the ability to make the free-will choice to merge with that God flame. When you merge with your God flame while you are still in physical embodiment, you become that God flame in action. Thereby, you become one with every ascended being who is of the same God flame as yourself.

Therefore, the ascended masters who are of the same God flame have the option of anchoring their individual flames in your heart—if you allow them to do so. This then allows us to be “as Above so below.” This then allows us to span the octaves and thereby provide a mighty action for the raising of the consciousness of humankind and for the raising of the vibration of the entire material universe.

Jesus: example, not exception

The most dangerous lie promoted by mainstream Christianity is that Jesus is so different from us as to be the only one who ever has or ever could attain personal Christhood. The very core of Jesus’ message is that we all have the same potential as he demonstrated, meaning we need to look at Jesus as an example that we can follow.

This section contains articles on the following topics:

 

Is Jesus our savior or brother?

  • Jesus is our brother of spirit and we need to see ourselves as one with him.
  • Beyond our outer mind, we are each a Flame of God.
  • The ascended masters are flames of God and this is how we can be one with them.
  • When we merge with our God Flame, the ascended masters can anchor their flames in our heart.

Take Jesus down from the pedestal

  • It is a burden to Jesus’ heart that many people think he is so special that they use him as an excuse to deny their own potential.
  • If we love Jesus, we will banish this belief from our beings and then share this freedom with others.
  • Jesus’ life was a book, teaching us how to overcome separation. Most people look only at the front and back cover, ignoring the contents.

The insane lie of only one Son of God

  • It is insanity to think there can be only one Son of God.
  • This lie is believed only by those who believe in an automatic salvation.
  • Jesus came to give the abundant life to all people.
  • He appeared in the Middle East to challenge the lie of God’s chosen people.
  • The forces of anti-christ attempted to kill Jesus’ example by raising him up as an exception.
  • The lie of the chosen people is the ultimate insanity of the ego.

Jesus had his own personal challenges

  • We have been programmed to see Jesus as different from ourselves.
  • No ascended master has had an easier road to the ascension than ourselves.
  • Jesus looked at his challenges through his personal filter as all of us do. 
  • The ultimate challenge for all is to overcome our personal filter instead of trying to solve other people’s problems.
  • The image of the judgmental God in the sky is a false image.

No more exclusivity

  • The ascended masters do not communicate only through one or a few people.
  • Most past societies based on elitism or deifying one person.
  • The Roman idea that the emperor was God was transferred to Jesus.
  • This led to the lie that we need a vicar between us and Christ.
  • Jesus came to show us that we all have access to the kingdom of God within ourselves.

Sharing your Presence

Jesus, June 13, 2010 through Kim Michaels.

When I walked the earth in Palestine, I many times encountered people, and – when they heard me speak – they sensed my Presence, my vibration. And therefore, they were lifted up to a reconnection with their own higher beings. This is not portrayed in the scriptures, for how can you even describe it with words. Many of these people did not become part of the Christian movement. Many of them went away, but their lives were set on a new course just from having encountered me one time. And therefore they went away, and although they did not become part of the Christian movement in an outer sense, they became part of the Christian movement in an inner sense. For the Christian movement was not about gathering members to an outer organization, but about forming that upward momentum of raising people’s consciousness, a momentum that spread like rings in the water of the collective consciousness.

This is what you have been doing and what you can do in even greater measure, by becoming aware of the need to share your Presence in everything you do. Whenever you encounter people, share that Presence. Provide the alternative to the force-based mindset or to the fear-based mindset. Show people that you are not trapped in this mindset. And then you can change a person’s life in a second, just by them sensing your vibration. And thereby, that encounter awakens something within themselves, where they now begin to sense the vibration of their own higher being, sense that they are formless beings—that they are not bound by form because they have seen you not being bound by form. And thus, they are rekindled into that awareness, that they too have the potential to go beyond these restricting forms that they have lived in for so long.

This is your greatest potential; this is your greatest service. Become more aware of it! Dare to acknowledge that you do have some attainment on the spiritual path, that you do have some connection to your higher being, that you do have a gift of the Spirit, that can be given by God through you—when you are consciously aware that you are the open door, when you accept that you are the open door.

Do not meet people with any intention, that you have to change their minds or make them believe a certain teaching. Meet them only with the intent to share your Presence with them, and then let it be up to the Spirit how that takes place. Be willing to be the open door, even though you do not know what your I AM Presence will express through you. Do not put restrictions on your I AM Presence, according to what you think is appropriate or even spiritual or will be acceptable to them. Dare to be the Presence in action, whatever that Presence might express through you. This is the sign of the truly Christed ones: you have no predefined, preconceived, intention or opinion. You are the open door. You are a clear pane of glass, through which the light of the sun of your Presence can shine. This is the ultimate service.

I am not saying you should not preach or share ideas; I am saying: do not formulate an intent or a plan with your outer mind. Surrender these structures in your mind. Use the cosmic wrecking ball of Kuan Yin to shatter those structures—and then just let the Spirit flow. It is only your ego that needs structure, because structure gives the illusion of continuity—and that gives the illusion of security or safety. Your formless spirit, your conscious self, does not need structure. When it recognizes itself as a formless being, then it is willing to flow with the Spirit, flow with the River of Life, wherever it takes you.

Thus, be of good cheer, for you have found favor with God. Indeed it is the father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom—when you will only let go of the structures that prevent it from being manifest in your lives. And thus, I come to say to you who have been part of this conference, part of the AskRealJesus website and the upward momentum that has been created through the many people who have studied the teachings and who have practiced the rosaries and invocations. I come to say to you, that you have multiplied the talents given, and therefore I can say with complete joy and gratitude: “Well done thou good and faithful servant. Thou has been faithful over a few things, come now into the joy of the Lord and we will see what more can be given through you in the times ahead.”

I came to bring joy to the world. You came to bring joy to the world. Thus, I AM the flame of joy for planet earth. Dare to come into oneness with that flame of joy, if you feel your calling to bring joy to the world. And then, I Above and you below shall indeed bring the joy, that will dispel the doom and gloom and usher in the Golden Age of freedom.

For when you are free, how can you not feel joy? And when you feel joy, how can you not be free? For only in freedom is there joy, but you attain freedom only through joy. For the 6th ray comes before the 7th, and so you will not attain joy by thinking you must be free before you can be joyful. You must realize that joy comes first, for joy comes when you feel joy regardless of outer conditions. And then, when you realize, that your joy does not depend on outer conditions, then you are free from the outer conditions. For then your mind has changed, so you realize that no form can affect the formless.

And this is the true joy of God, the true joy of the Spirit that I AM.

Raising the whole

Ascended Master Jesus, June 13, 2010 through Kim Michaels.

When you are on the spiritual path, every time you take a step up in consciousness, you are making a contribution to the forward progression of the earth, the Golden Age, and the work of the ascended masters. Every step you take up is making a contribution. You might say, that your individual contribution seemingly makes no difference on the whole, but if all other spiritual people said the same thing – and no one made those small individual contributions – then how would the whole ever be raised up?

You see, every one of you is part of the forward momentum of humankind. Every one of you is making a contribution. By the mere fact that you have been in embodiment in Russia, or in one of the former Soviet republics, you have made a contribution to the downfall of communism, and you have made a contribution to the transition into a new form of life. You may look at the chaos that is here now, but had you not been here, that chaos would have been far worse. And it would have taken much longer to transcend it and move into an upward spiral that is obvious to all.

There is an upward spiral in Russia and the former Soviet republics. There is an upward spiral on a planetary level. And it is just a matter of time before it breaks through to the point, where most people can see it and acknowledge it. You cannot detect such an upward spiral by looking at external, isolated events. For if you are willing to look for the events that prove that the earth is doomed to go to hell, then you can always find such events. But we do not look at such events the same way. For do you understand what we have been saying throughout this conference: the old structures must be broken down before the new can be born? And so, is it really a sign that the earth is going to hell, that some of these old structure are broken down, or is it actually a sign that the earth is approaching a moment of rebirth?

Was Jesus’ life a failure?

Ascended Master Jesus, June 13, 2010 through Kim Michaels.

So I know, indeed, what it is like to be a spiritual person, to have a vision that there is a greater potential, but to feel like – whenever you try to express yourself and your potential – you are up against this wall that you cannot move. You feel as if other people are so closed-minded, as if society is so closed, that there is nothing that can penetrate the resistance you feel. My beloved, there were times during my three-year mission in Palestine, where I was on the brink of despair. They are not all recorded; only the night in the Garden of Gethsemane is recorded in the scriptures. But I had other points, other situations like that, where I cried out, where I felt this frustration of knowing, that people could be set free by changing their minds, yet feeling how unwilling they were to even consider that they might change their minds.

It can be an overwhelming feeling, can it not? And yet, I come to give you a sense of co-measurement. For you may look at my life as Jesus, and you may – from a certain perspective – look at the outer events, and you might see that lifetime as a failure. After all, I was killed like a common criminal without having achieved anything physical. There was really no organization, just a band of people who had been following me, yet when I left they were in a chaotic state of not knowing what to do next.

Then you may look at how they still managed to form a movement that eventually grew, but then – when that movement became the official state religion of the Roman Empire – the original teachings and example that I set were perverted and turned upside down. And so, even though you today have a so-called great religion of Christianity with over a billion followers, they are not truly following the real Jesus but a false image of a false Christ, created by the forces of anti-christ. So you may look and see, “What has actually been accomplished in these 2,000 years since I walked the earth?” Yet this is looking with the outer eye, with the human eye. You are looking at physical events and you are thinking that there should be physical changes.

A dark cloud over the earth

Well, if you look deeper, you will actually see, that there have been many changes that were brought about by Christianity, or rather the mindset that some have at least tuned in to. Yet what I want to give you here is the sense of what happens at inner levels. You see, my beloved, if you were able to come with me and look at the earth from the ascended perspective, you would be able to see what has happened at the level of pure energy, at the level of consciousness. And you would see that in the millennia and centuries before my birth in the physical, there was indeed a dark cloud hanging over the earth. It formed almost like an encrusted shell, that the people could not break through. It was very difficult for people to break through that shell and establish any contact with their I AM presences or with the ascended level of consciousness.

Yet, as the result of my taking physical embodiment, that shell began to crack and crumble. And over the past 2,000 years, this momentum has been reinforced by the many spiritual people who also have taken embodiment on earth. And whether they were Christians or not, they have also made a contribution – by their mere presence on the planet – to breaking up that shell. You will see, that most of you have been in embodiment almost continually for these past 2,000 years, and therefore you have also been part of this process.

If you look at the deeper levels, you will see that – even though you may look at the outer events and see that the earth is still far from the Golden Age – at inner levels the work that needed to be done during the age of Pisces has actually been done. And therefore, it is now possible for a critical mass among humankind to actually establish a connection to the spiritual realm. And therefore, the potential is there for the shift into the golden-age consciousness. This shift can happen much more quickly now than if the process had not taken place over these past 2,000 years.

Had I not taken embodiment, it would not have happened at all. Had you and many others not taken embodiment, the earth would still have been at a stage, where it was difficult for the majority of the population to establish a true spiritual connection. So you see, you might look at your own lives and wonder: “Have I made a difference, am I making a difference?” But you are making a difference.

We are not here talking about physical changes or creating an organization that attracts great numbers. What am I really talking about? I am talking about what other masters have said: provide people with a frame of reference. Provide people with a demonstration, that you are in a state of consciousness that is higher than the normal state, that is higher than their own state. And therefore, you give them that frame of reference, that there is more to life than what they experience in their current state of consciousness. And thereby, you give them a choice, a real choice.

Do you see: we of the ascended masters are not truly looking first to physical changes—we are first looking to a change in consciousness. We are not seeking to force people into the Golden Age. We are seeking to give them the best possible opportunity to choose to enter the golden-age consciousness—and then the golden age will be manifest through that change in consciousness. But we know – and you should know – that it must happen as a result of free choices. It cannot be forced, for that defies the entire purpose of creation.

Did Jesus fail?

From a superficial perspective, it might seem as if Jesus’ mission was a failure. In his own lifetime, he attracted few followers and he left a tattered band of disciples. Later, the church that claims to represent him has misinterpreted his teachings and message beyond recognition. However, from a deeper perspective, Jesus did accomplish what he came to do and his mission has had a much more profound impact on this planet than most people realize.

This section contains articles on the following topics:

 

Was Jesus’ life a failure?

  • There were times when Jesus was at the point of despair.
  • Jesus accomplished nothing outer in his lifetime.
  • Even though a large religion eventually appeared, it follows a completely false image of Jesus and his teachings.
  • From a spiritual perspective, there was a dark cloud of negative energy enveloping earth before Jesus took embodiment.
  • Jesus’ embodiment caused a crack in the shell of this darkness, and since then many spiritual people have helped transform it.
  • Because of Jesus’ mission, we have a far greater opportunity to grow spiritually today. 
  • We can carry forward Jesus’ work by also becoming open doors for the Light of Christ.

Read more about this.

 

Raising the whole

  • When you raise your consciousness, it makes a difference for the whole.
  • Your contribution may seem small, but if all spiritual people gave up, the impact would be huge. Thus, we each make an invaluable contribution to raising the whole.
  • Outer chaos is a sign that old structure are being broken down.
  • There is a huge potential for a major breakthrough on a world scale if we continue to do our work individually, following the mystical path of Christ.

Read more about this.

 

Sharing your Presence

  • Jesus set people’s lives on a new course.
  • The original Christian movement was not about outer results but about making a difference at inner, hidden levels.
  • More important than doing outer works is to share your light and your Presence with people.
  • By dismantling the structures of what outer actions to take, we become open doors for our spiritual selves and the Holy Spirit, and this is what will make the greatest difference.

Jesus has a right to speak today

Ascended Master Jesus, January 3, 2011 through Kim Michaels.

I am the ascended master Jesus Christ, and I do have a right to have taken embodiment 2,000 years ago, and I do have a right to speak through a physical messenger today. There are many – embodied or disembodied – who would deny that right, the right of the Christ to take incarnation, to enter this material world and to bring forth the light from Above by being the open door.

They do not want to be disturbed, they believe – in their spiritual pride – that they have some kind of ownership of this planet, at least in the material realm. Yet they do not have that ownership, for everything on earth is subject to free will. There is the collective free will, but there is also the individual free will.

Surely, a planet cannot rise higher than the collective free will. But an individual has a right to rise higher than the collective is willing to go. And thus, an individual has the right to attain Christhood, to express that Christhood and also to be the open door for the Living Christ to express itself through that individual. This is a right that can never be taken away, no matter how many schemes or philosophies the fallen beings come up with.

They have attempted – since the beginning of their descent on this planet – to prevent any individual from attaining the level of Christhood and beyond. They have, in numerous cases, been successful in either intimidating people into not even attempting to express their Christhood, or in physically preventing them from doing so, through myriad schemes that they have come up with. Nevertheless, it remains an eternal right of the individual to manifest Christhood and to be the open door for the flow of the Spirit.

Jesus challenged us to prove the triumph of individuality over structures

Ascended Master Saint Germain, March 22, 2010 through Kim Michaels.

This is the change, that has been underway for the past 2,000 years and beyond, but especially initiated by the coming of Christ. For what did Christ do? He proved the ultimate potential of individuality—the triumph of individuality over structures built by the fallen consciousness. The triumph of the individuality of God over the death consciousness, that denies individuality and individual creativity. This is the change that has been happening over these past 2,000 years.

If the Aquarian age is to be a Golden Age, this change must be greatly accelerated. And it will be accelerated only, when all of the people who are beginning to wake up – realizing that there is something wrong in their democracies – go beyond complaining about it, go beyond longing for some other elite to take them away from the bad elite – and realize that the man on the white horse, the woman on the white horse, that is going to ride into town and make a difference is YOU. You are the person who must make a difference, by educating yourself, by speaking out, by taking responsibility.

Do you see, as I have hinted at before, that even the concept of conspiracies and conspiracy theories can be used by the fallen consciousness to make you feel that it is so overwhelming for an ordinary person to fight against this worldwide conspiracy, this secret society, that you do nothing? Do you see, that throughout the ages, the fallen consciousness has always done this exact thing: put out some idea – depending on the moods of the time – that there is some overwhelming force running your society and that you, as an individual, have no opportunity to make a difference, that you cannot stand up against it. But did not Christ demonstrate, that the individual can stand up against it? Even if the power elite kills him, then Christ will bring about their judgment and thus society will progress.

But in today’s democracies, it is not necessary, that you stand out as one individual and is killed—this is not necessary if many people will stand out at once. For you realize, of course, that a power elite can kill off one or a few individuals. But they cannot kill off tens of thousands of people who are all speaking out. Then they will give up their power—they will because they realize, it is the only way they are going to survive.

Look at even the Roman emperors, the most megalomaniac leaders you have seen – just about – in history. They thought they were gods on earth, but why did a Roman emperor build the Colosseum? It was to entertain the people, but it was really to divert the attention of the people. And what does this show you, my beloved? It shows you, that even a Roman emperor – who thought he was God on earth – was still afraid of the people. Because if the people had woken up in sufficient numbers, he knew he would have lost his power. This was true 2,000 years ago; it is equally true today. Whatever secret conspiracy you might envision that is running this world behind the scenes, I tell you: they have no power to stand up to the people—when the people wake up in sufficient numbers and decide to take responsibility and demand, that their leaders be held responsible for what they do.

If you could see it from my perspective, you would see that the camel’s back, the Dragon’s back, has already been broken. The control of any power elite group of this planet has already been broken. The people have not realized this, but it would only take a slight shift in consciousness, before the people could wake up and once and for all break the stranglehold of any power elite, no matter how powerful you may envision it to be. As a visible example, look at what is happening to the Catholic Church. Look at how people, after decades of silence, are finally speaking out against the abuse by Catholic clergy. One of the most entrenched institutions that this earth has ever seen, can no longer stem the tide of them being held responsible.

Do you see what is happening behind the scenes here? Do you see what we have talked about, how a structure requires the suppression of individuality? But, a structure also offers something for those who are willing to submit part of their individuality to the structure. It offers them, that they can hide behind the structure, as you have seen Catholic priests hide for decades while they were abusing children. If these priests had been abusing children out in secular society, they would have been caught and put in jail decades ago. But they managed to hide behind the structure for decades. Yet the fact that they can no longer hide, and that this scandal will spread worldwide, shows you that a shift has happened. 

And if you could see what I see at inner levels, you would see, that even the worst conspiracy you could possibly imagine cannot survive in the Aquarian age consciousness. The Holy Spirit will blow where it listeth, the Sword of Christ, as Gautama Buddha said at New Year’s, will cut the veils, that will expose these hidden power elite structures one by one. And they cannot survive once they can no longer hide. The power elite can only thrive in the darkness, they cannot survive when the light of Christ shines upon them. And the light of Christ is being shined upon them by those who are willing to raise their consciousness and make the calls through our rosaries and invocations.

Understanding the challenge that Jesus hurled at humankind

Ascended Master Saint Germain, March 22, 2010 through Kim Michaels.

So then, this is the consciousness that humankind has been up against for these past 2,000 years. Certainly, they have been up against it before, but they have not really been up against it; they have been subjected to it. For it was only 2,000 years ago that humankind received a true opportunity to see and transcend this consciousness. And what gave them that opportunity to transcend the fallen consciousness, the consciousness that something on earth can be infallible, can be permanent? Well, it was, my beloved, the incarnation of Jesus as the living Christ. When he walked the earth those 2,000 years ago, he hurled the challenge at humankind: there is a higher reality than the fallen consciousness. “Ye are of your father the devil, and the lust of your father will ye do, for he was a murderer from the beginning.” He murdered truth, the fallen ones murdered truth, murdered innocence, murdered the very transcendence of life.

For life is transcendence. Without transcendence, there is no life. Life is not in a stationary orbit; life is constantly transcending and renewing itself. And a species that will not adapt and renew itself, will become extinct. That is the one valuable lesson, that can be learned from the entire concept of evolution and the survival of the fittest—meaning the most adaptable, those who are most willing to transcend the old matrix.

Look at the life of Jesus. Born in humble circumstances, born like any other man—despite the myths that were added later about a star appearing. I was there as Saint Joseph – or rather, as Joseph the carpenter – when Jesus was born. You have seen the images of a manger with a star appearing above it. Well, I was there and I saw no such star, my beloved. This was an entirely metaphorical thing, that could only be deduced by those who had inner sight—not a physically visible star, as the legends would have it.

For what have they done to Christ? He embodied as an “ordinary” human being in order to show the potential that all have. The fallen ones, of course, did not want people to realize their true potential, so what did they do. Well, first the Roman emperors tried to suppress Christianity. And then, when it became clear to one pragmatic emperor – one political animal by the name of Constantine – that it could not be suppressed, what did they do? Well, they said, “Let’s use it then—if we can’t kill it, let’s use it. Let’s accept it as the official religion, but of course in doing so, let us add a few subtle conditions that no one will notice—a few conditions that twist and turn Christianity.”

Not that this was an invention of the emperor Constantine; it was already started by other fallen beings who had joined Christianity, and who had started to glorify Jesus and set him up as an exception rather than as an example. And so, it was easy for Constantine to magnify this, to put the support of the Roman Empire behind those who had the view of Christianity, that most suited his political ends. Gradually, you saw the formation of a Church which elevated Christ to the status of God, thereby being fundamentally different from other people on this planet, therefore being completely unsuited to serve as an example for them and their potential, for he was so different. He was of the same substance as the father, he was God from the very beginning.

Well, my beloved, you are all God from the very beginning, because without him was not anything made that was made. And thus “ye are gods” as Jesus himself said. And that, of course, is precisely what the fallen ones do not want you to realize. They do not want you to realize your true co-creative potential.

Not that you are gods in the sense of the fallen ones wanting to set themselves up as god on earth. You are not God in the fullest sense; you are individualizations of God. That does not mean, that anyone of you is superior to any other, for how can one expression of God be superior to another expression of God? You are all individualizations of God, you are all equal in your uniqueness. Yet what the fallen consciousness has done is, it has imposed that value judgment, whereby it now becomes possible to say, that due to certain characteristics here on earth, one person is unique, one person is above all others—be it an emperor, or a pope or Christ himself.

Jesus’ challenge to humanity

Ascended Master Jesus, February 11, 2010 through Kim Michaels.

You alone are responsible for finding the kingdom of God within YOU. Nobody can find it for you, nobody can take you to that kingdom, unless you find it within yourself. And therefore, you are responsible for your own salvation, for you are responsible for the use of your free will, and how you have used that free will and the force of your attention, your co-creative powers, to create a sense of identity as a mortal human being, who is either a sinner or in other ways prevented from entering the kingdom of God. You think you must go through a process before you can enter that kingdom, instead of accepting what I said 2,000 years ago: the kingdom of God is at hand—if you are willing to go within and find it there.

You can find it at any time; there is no process other than the process you need to go through in order to change the reality that you believe—the reality that is a lie, but you believe it is a reality, thinking there is something that separates you from the kingdom of God. Something you have done in the past, some condition created by God, where you were born into sin or whatever it may be. You have elevated some condition in this world to have power over your Spirit, your conscious self, and your oneness with your spiritual self, your I AM Presence. That is the graven image that you have set before the God in you, and only YOU have created it and only YOU can uncreate it. Only you can go beyond it, only you can determine to let it die by not feeding the light into it over your attention.

Thus, this is the challenge I hurled at humanity 2,000 years ago. Oh, so few have been willing to take up that challenge. Yet at least in this age many more are prepared to take up the challenge—if they are willing. And thus, many will need only a word, many will need only a simple explanation—not in any high-flung language, not clothed in any kind of authority, other than the simple authority of the truth, that certainly unlocks in them an inner memory of what they already know in their hearts. And suddenly, their outer minds are quickened, and they now reconnect to that inner knowing. And they realize, that this is indeed the truth: “I am here to demonstrate that I am one of those who is willing to take full and final responsibility for myself, to raise myself above the duality consciousness, to expose it in myself by being honest and willing to look at myself, and to expose it wherever I find it in the external world, even in the religion of my culture and my family and my society. I am willing to speak out and say, ‘This simply makes no sense anymore. I refuse to believe it. I refuse to let it guide my life, to let it consume my life. I refuse it, and therefore I am willing to speak out. I am willing to speak out the reality that there is MORE.’”

Whatever you think of me, I am more. Whatever you think of me – no matter whether you think you have been in the ascended masters’ teachings for decades, whether you have studied this or that dictation, whether you think you know the reality of who I am, even if you have read everything that is on the AskrealJesus website or everything that is in the books – I am MORE. I am more than anything that could ever be put into words, into any outer teaching. I am more, and you will only know that more, when you decide to look for it in your heart. For it is only there, that you will find the Living Christ. You will not find me anywhere else, neither in this Church of Saint Peter, nor on the AskrealJesus website, nor in any other location that you can pinpoint on this earth.

You will find me only when you go within your heart, not to find a location, but to find the point of stillness, the singularity that is the opening to the kingdom of God. For it is the opening that goes beyond space and time, that goes beyond form, and that is where you will find me. For even though I can take on form, as I did 2,000 years ago in a physical body, even though I can speak through a form, such as this messenger or my website, I am always more than any form I take on—just as you are always more than any form you have taken on. And this is the realization you need to come to for yourself, before you can find it in me, before you can reconnect to the formless self that you are.

The desire to know before you see

You all think that you have a divine plan, you all think that you have a divine individuality in your I AM Presence, but you all fail to realize, that the divine individuality is beyond form. It does not have a form, that you can pinpoint with your outer mind. You cannot write it down, you cannot see it in a vision. You can only let it unfold itself; you will not know what it is, my beloved, before it is manifesting itself through you. You will know it as you see it unfold; you will not know it ahead of time.

Do you see, that this is precisely the Peter consciousness, the idea that there is a gap between your action and your inner knowing, so that you are supposed to know within what you will do. And then you have a space, where you can decide whether you are willing to do it or not. This is the fallen consciousness, this is the duality consciousness, that wants to judge everything based on an earthly, man-made standard, even a standard of perfection—as so many have attempted to define a standard of perfection. You want to be able to judge your impulses from your I AM Presence before you allow them to manifest as actions or words. And in wanting to judge, you are not willing to let yourself die into the flow of the Spirit, where you do not know where the Holy Spirit will flow through you. But if you want to judge, you are not willing to let that Spirit blow where it listeth. You want to know ahead of time whether it will flow in an appropriate way. And therefore, you stop its flow by that very desire to know before you see.

My Beloved, I have no desire for you to study even my living teachings on the AskrealJesus website, so that you become the most knowledgeable spiritual people on earth. I have no desire for you to know everything but fail to act on anything. I desire you to become as the little child, who is willing to express whatever comes through him from the Spirit. But who has, of course, gone through the learning process, the process of separating yourself from the outer identity, so that you are not expressing from the ego and the fears of the human. But you are fearless before God and fearless before men in allowing the Spirit to express itself through you. This is the Holy Spirit, this is the flow, this is the Church that I came to start, and this is the Church against which the gates of hell shall not prevail.

Because the gates of hell is precisely the desire to make form permanent and to enclose Spirit in form. And it cannot be done, and that is why the gates of hell will indeed prevail against any Church that seeks to enclose Spirit in form, as this Catholic Church has done now for so long, that everyone thinks that this is the only way to be Christian. But it is not being truly Christian, for it is not being like Christ, who expressed whatever came to me.

Do you really think, that I knew everything I was going to do? My Beloved, there were many times, where I had no idea what God would do through me, I simply allowed it to happen. And I was as surprised when it happened as those who were looking on. There was no sense of pre-destination, of pre-definition, of premonition. Certainly, I had certain inklings and visions, but I did not allow them to trap my mind into wanting to make them happen, or fearing that they would happen. I surrendered and allowed it.
