A message from the ascended master Jesus through Kim Michaels: (July 1, 2005.)

Towards the end of the Piscean age

I am the universal Christ in action here. Many in the West have known me as Jesus, many in the East have known me as Krishna. We are distinct beings, yet we are both representatives of the one universal Christ that is in all life. Therefore, I come now as the Jesus with which most of you are familiar here in the West. I come to claim planet earth for the universal Christ, as opposed to the false Christ, the dogmatic, exclusivist Christ that has been set up as an idol by those who claim to represent me on earth.

I am here to take dominion over the earth, but I am here to take dominion over the earth through the Christ in all life. Will you be the Christ in action where you are? Then I welcome you to my heart, which is a symbol of the upper room where I shared the last supper with my disciples. That upper room was in itself a symbol of the fact that my disciples had been willing to raise their consciousness to the level of the Christ mind. And thus, the upper room was truly a place in consciousness, although it was also a physical place.

I am come today to claim the next 2,000 years as the Age of the Universal Christ. You may have heard of it as the Age of Aquarius, you may have heard of it as the Age of Freedom, but there is no freedom except through Christ and the Christ mind, that cleaves the real from the unreal in your own being and in the world in which you live.

Many years ago, the term Christ was truly a universal term. It had no dogmatic connotations. It was not monopolized by a particular church, and it was never meant to be monopolized by one particular church. It was meant to remain a universal term that would unite brother with brother across the lines of the outer religions. I came to inaugurate an age where people would separate themselves from the consciousness of duality, the consciousness of anti-christ that is based on separation, the separation from your source that leads to a sense of separation from your brothers and sisters in Spirit, and therefore leads to conflict and vain competition among men.

I came to bring the universal Christ light that is beyond any outer teaching that can be expressed in words. It cannot be confined to any expression in words or images in this world. It is beyond this world of form, but it can be touched, it can be glimpsed, through you, when you go within, when you go into the kingdom that is within you, that is within your heart and reach for that something more that you cannot define, that you cannot put into words, but that you know is real because your heart will tell you the reality of this universal Christ mind.

And when people are willing to reach for that – whether they call it Christ or something else – but when they are willing to reach for that which cannot be defined, then they will truly find a deeper sense of oneness with the source of all life. And as you, as an individual, feel that sense of oneness, you will know that the source from which you sprang was also the very origin of all other people on earth. And when you know that other people came from the same source, you cannot look at them as enemies, you cannot look at them as competitors, and you will not judge them.

Jesus will stay with earth for another 2,000 years

You have all heard the statement from the Gospel of John, “I am the way, the truth and the life, no man cometh to the Father but by me.” You have probably heard some hellfire and brimstone Christian preacher use that statement as a supposed proof that Christianity is the only true religion. And for almost 2,000 years the blind leaders of orthodox Christianity have managed to have over a billion people believe in their lie that Christianity is the only true religion. But in truth, the universal Christ is the only true religion, the only true approach to religion, because it is only through the Christ mind that you can attain the goal of all true religion, which is oneness with your source and oneness with your brothers and sisters who are part of the Body of God on earth.

And thus, I never meant to start an exclusivist religion that would compete with other religions and seek to replace them, even seeking to kill the followers of other religions, thinking it was better for those followers to be killed than to go to hell. What folly this has been. What sorrow and burden it has been to my heart to watch this for 2,000 years. And therefore, I come to tell you that I, Jesus Christ, from this day on will wage war against those who misuse my name and the name of the Universal Christ.

I have come to claim planet earth for the true teachings of the universal Christ. And I will give those teachings, so that people can either accept them or deny them, but so that no one can say that they have not been presented with the true teachings of Christ. The true meaning of the statement I made, that I am the way, the truth and the life, is simple. I Jesus Christ, as an ascended being, have been appointed by God to hold a spiritual office for planet earth. That is the Office of Savior, or World Teacher. When a person has reached a sufficient level of Christhood, that person will have to go through the office, my office, the Office of the Universal Christ, in order to permanently ascend from planet earth and rise to a higher level.

The Office of the Universal Christ has one goal only, and that is to make sure that a student has let go of the duality consciousness, the consciousness of anti-christ, and has come to identify himself or herself with the Christ within, with the source of all life, because only that sense of oneness can give a lifestream, entry into heaven. No one who is still stuck in the duality consciousness can enter heaven, because in heaven we are all one and we are all one with God. How can those who wear not the wedding garment of oneness enter the wedding feast? They must remain in the outer darkness of their own making, of the duality consciousness.

So for these past 2,000 years I have served in this office. And I have received many sincere seekers who came to me. And many of them have passed the test of oneness and they have gone through my office to higher realms. Now, the Christians will tell you that those who came to me would have had to come from a Christian religion, but that is not so. That is a lie. I have received people from every religion on earth over these past 2,000 years. I have even received many who did not belong to a formal religion. I have even received a precious few who thought they were atheists, but nevertheless discovered their true inner faith, once they shed the mortal form.

As one age passes and another age begins, it is possible that a spiritual office will be passed on to another ascended being. Yet I am here to tell you that I have been offered by cosmic councils to continue in my office for the next 2,000 years, and I have decided to accept this offer. Therefore, I will continue to serve in the Office of the Universal Christ for the next 2,000 years, assisting all of the ascended brother and sisters who work with planet earth. Why have I made this decision? For one reason only—out of my love for you, for those lifestreams on earth who truly are the true followers of the universal Christ.

Jesus will help us claim our Christhood

As I have said, there are 10,000 people on earth today who at inner levels have attained their Christhood. Many of them have grown up in a religion that did not teach them about Christhood, or that taught them that it was blasphemy to make themselves equal to Christ. Therefore, they have not been awakened to their inner attainment, they have not accepted their inner attainment, and they have not claimed their Christhood. And there are millions more who have attained a high degree of Christhood and could attain the full Christhood in this embodiment, if only they would dare to claim it.

And thus, I have vowed – out of love for these lifestreams – to stay with earth for another 2,000 years and assist Saint Germain in bringing in the Golden Age of Aquarius, the golden age of spiritual freedom, that has been his dream for these many centuries. And thus I tell you that I am here and that I am here to stay.

And I tell you also – all those who are members of other religions, those who are in the New Age movement, those who have been discouraged or disappointed by orthodox Christianity – I tell you, I Jesus Christ am here to serve the Christ in you—if you will have me. I know that many of you have been prejudiced against Jesus Christ because you have been exposed to the false image of Christ that has been promoted by orthodox Christianity in my name. Yet I am not here as that idol.

I am not the Jesus Christ that has been portrayed hanging on the cross for so many years in Christian churches. I am not that idol, not that false Christ. I am far more. I am a universal spiritual Being, and I am here to help you—if you are willing to open your heart and give me room to enter.

Therefore, I will – through this messenger, through other messengers and through anyone who is willing to speak the Living Word – expose people to the true, universal Christ, the inner Christ within all. This is the Christ of the Aquarian Age, and without that Christ, without that Christ mind, you will not be able to transcend the consciousness of Pisces and move into the consciousness of Aquarius. This then is my commitment to earth and to your progress on the path.

However, I realize, as the realistic Being that I am, that I of my own self can do nothing and that I alone cannot accomplish this task, even though I am an ascended Being and even though I have been given all power in heaven and on earth. I am not the only ascended being, and there are other ascended beings who embody particular flames that are needed to help planet earth go through the transformation from the Piscean state of consciousness to the Aquarian state of consciousness.

And thus I have with me, first of all my beloved Mother Mary, who gave birth to me these 2,000 years ago. And I have with me the man who was my father 2,000 years ago, whom many know as Saint Joseph and whom many in today’s age know as Saint Germain. And thus, for now I withdraw and I let Mother Mary speak.
