Christ Is ALL - Closing

Closing Thoughts

Ascending into the infinity of God while holding on to the revelation of who Christ is within me, the I that I am, is truly like diving down into the deep end of the ocean with the magnificent whales that plunge the depths of the deep. Descending into the depths of consciousness holding onto the I of God will take you into the deep things of God. It can be the most exhilarating experience of your life, but it can also be dangerous to those who have not been rooted and grounded in the Finished Work of Christ. Eventually you will have to come back to shore, and it is only through your understanding of Christ that you can find your way. Without a clear understanding of the work of Christ one may get lost in the deep revelations.

You can soar in the heavens like a flying eagle, but it is only a joy ride unless you first go down into the depths of the ocean like a giant whale. It is down in the deep where you come to grip with the unreal nature of the appearance world. This is where you find out that all that you experience with your physical senses is but the temporal condition of man's carnal mind. The whole of the natural picture is but the false identity, and wrong interpretation, of the carnal mind. When we come to the place where we can see through the appearances of "this world" we will then see Reality as God has declared it to be.

Jesus was such a Man who could see through the appearances of the human condition. By judging with righteous judgment He could change the situation and bring about Spiritual Truth in the lives of those who were receptive to Him. He knew that as it is in heaven, so it is in the earth, and then the manifestation would take place. With His understanding of the Father within Him, nothing was impossible to Him.

The Word declares what is true of us in Christ, we have just not yet understood the finished mystery of redemption to the degree in which we have broken the mesmerism of the carnal mind of man, and the bondage of corruption which enslaves us. The man of flesh has built a "system of belief" that permeates human consciousness, and we must dispel this "system of belief" through our descending into the depths of the death of Christ, and then ascending into the Reality we have as New Creation spiritual beings.

It is only by seeing the Christ that you can change, or even expect to change; but that is what this life is all about....a chance to change. Our life in this natural realm is a chance to change from a natural man in Adamic sin-consciousness, to a spiritual man who has his being in Christ: From a man of the earth to a man of the heavens.

This earthen body was sown in corruption and shall be raised in incorruption. We who believe are being changed from glory to glory into the image of Him who created us. Think of the change that takes place from the time the sperm of the man enters the egg of the woman until the time the baby is born. Tremendous! From the time a couple of cells become one to a full functioning human infant is a radical change of form. Then think of the change that takes place from infancy to adulthood. The states and stages of consciousness the human goes through, as well as the physical changes. The change that takes place in the human condition is only a picture of the change that should go on within our consciousness.

The next type of change that takes place in our life is the chance to change from a natural man to a spiritual man. Most persons who consider themselves "spiritual" believe themselves to be a human having a spiritual experience. But the truth of the one who is born from above is that of a spirit-person having a human experience. Gaining the awareness of being spirit with a soul and having a body does not all happen at once in our lives. Yet, our true condition has always existed in the Mind of God.

The Seed that is Christ has entered human consciousness and a transformation of epic proportions is on the horizon. To those who look for Him He will appear as the Reality of who we are. Christ is ALL and in all, yet the outworking of this truth is still unfolding in consciousness.

The Father within was the divinity of Jesus, as the Christ within is the divinity of man - the I AM that I am. God and man are not separate from one another but are One. "I and the Father are one" is the Christ-consciousness that we must ascend into to where we understand that we are not separate from God. Nor are we separate from the Life of God that is flowing through us just like the life force represented by the sap is flowing through a tree is not separate from it. I am just that point of visibility where He, the Creator, comes into visibility, into manifestation...a man-ifestation of God.

I do not have any divinity of my own personal self, my little "self" or ego that thinks it is a god. That belief in a personal selfhood apart from God was crucified with Christ when He drew all consciousness into His Self and there died to it once and for all. He demonstrated the powerlessness of the personal self by passing through death and then being raised from the dead. He, thereby, demonstrated the eternal life force that was available to all mankind; to those who would believe and be born of the Spirit.

Man believing in his own personal selfhood, his own godhood, lost his union with divinity that he was created to express. Through the work of Jesus Christ we have become all that God has declared us to be in the beginning when He purposed man to be in His image and likeness. In Christ we are created into a living hope of Being; we have become the express image of His Person, and now we must awake to it. "Awake you who sleep, arise from the dead, and Christ shall give you light."

We are One with Christ; One with Spirit, One with the Father; we are ONE. All that the Father has belongs to the Son. All of His divine nature that He has is mine to walk in, not for personal gain, but that God may be glorified. The divine nature is not money or "things" of this world, it is the character of God expressing through you that the world may know and believe in God. The Christ, the divinity of man, is waiting recognition--believe in Him that He may be your ALL in all. Then you can work the works of God.

Christ is the absolute truth of individual being: The Reality of our Spiritual substance is Christ. Christ is the True Light that lights every man. We put on Christ, the Truth of individual spiritual being, through the mind of Christ. Through the renewing of our mind to His Mind a transformation occurs--a transformation of consciousness. When consciousness is changed the effects of this change will be seen in our outer expression.

Christ is ALL and in ALL, but without recognition of this Most Holy Truth the Reality will never be manifested or expressed. All that Christ is I am; All that Christ is you are. All that God has made us to be we are in Christ. Christ alone IS the Reality of being. Christ is all and in all.

CHRIST IS ALL!
