THERE IS A WORLD – cont’d. (section 2)

Yes, yes, I know the question then arises that if Jesus did not die, then what is the cross all about? Well, Nic, its like this: The Cross is representative - representing your dying to the notion that you are separate from God. Christ could not die, neither can you, for Christ is the Life of all of us. "Christ is your life," Colossians 3:4, and obviously "Life" cannot know "death."

The name Jesus is to the figure of a man - as "Nic" is to the figure – or image - of your personality, but your personality is not Who you truly are. The word "image" in Genesis means "illusion," so your image of yourself, i.e. Nic, is an illusion, yet it is how you seem to present yourself to a world where you could not be seen any other way. You might think of this figure – or image - called Nic, much like a costume and mask, used to portray a part in a play, while the True You is like the actor behind the costume. Even though you appear to be "in character" though you may be acting the part, and the "play world" seems real to you, the True You, the True Self you are, is never confused as to Who It really is – or – Who you Truly are.

Therefore, for a moment think of Jesus – and realize that the name represents the Nature. The name Jesus represents the True Character, or nature, behind the name, and in this case, the Name Jesus – which means Savior - represents Freedom or Saving Grace. Freedom from what? Salvation from what? From believing you are a human being subject to the wiles and ills of a physical world, freedom from the belief that there is a "physical world," freedom to realize all is Spirit – because God is Spirit and God is all! And since God is all – and truly this is the case, then Life is all, because God is Life. It is freedom or salvation from believing you are a human being as opposed to God who is Spirit-Being. "He that is born of the Spirit is Spirit." Are you born of the Spirit? Then you are Spirit! You are not a human being – you are God-Being. You are Spirit Being, and – actually you always were, you just forgot. But "… the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you." (John 14:26) And remember this: "But he that is joined to the Lord is one Spirit." (I Corinthians 6:17) You are joined wholely to the Lord, for the Lord is the One Mind which is behind and in and as everything. "Christ is all and in all." (Colossians 3:11) Realizing that you are Spirit, that you are God-Being, that you are Christ – "ye are the light of the world," you are free from the bondage of "humanity." But this must be realized in more than a mental way and this realization is "the Revelation of Jesus Christ." The Revelation that Jesus Christ - or the Nature which is "freeing," which saves you from the thinking of "this world," is the Nature which is the Only True nature - is the light which will enlighten you and enliven you. This is freedom from having to "do" anything, but BE What you Truly are! It is freedom from sickness, disease, accidents and fear. It is freedom from death in the way you have thought of death, because not only did Jesus abolish death (put an end to such an idea), but the Truth brings the realization that "eternal life" is exactly that: eternal – without beginning or ending.

Actually you could be no more dead than to believe that you are separate from God, because just as a limb which is cut off from the vine dies, so the thinking that I am separate from God makes me "dead." "For the body without the Spirit is dead." (James 2:26) The Nature: Jesus Christ, or the Christ Nature - which again, is What you truly are – and the knowledge of this, is freedom or salvation from thinking that you have to do certain things, or learn something, or that you must meditate in long deep silences away from the world around you, or eat a certain way or look a certain way, or follow someone’s rules, regulations, laws, ideologies or rituals (among the many religious notions), to get to heaven – or to "please God." In fact, you will never please God doing all those things.

Yes, times of quiet are wonderful, silence is golden – because Silence is God, and you must be "still to know that I am God," because otherwise your thinking will wander and run to and fro in your earth, keeping you in confusion, but you do not have to withdraw from the world, for just as Jesus, (or God in the form of Jesus) said, "For this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the Truth," (Jn 18:37) so it is with you. "For this cause" you came into the world, that you might bear witness to the Truth of Who you are! Because Who you are is Who I Am, and Who I Am is God, and this is the True Self of ALL.

You will have times when you are "away" from the world, so to speak, in order to "let" the Truth come to you, times, moments or seasons when you will feel that you must be quiet and alone, not to meditate in the sense of sitting in some particular posture repeating some affirmation or strange word, but in quietness and solitude you will have revelation come to you regarding a question you may have about something or you will receive some light on something that you have not considered before, but you are not going to become "weird" in religious activity or religious non-activity to be what you already are! This is true religion if there is any religion at all, to simply BE and let God – Life – live, move and be in you, as you! You do not have to "do" anything to BE What you already are. In fact, the more you "do" to "become" - the further away you push the Truth that I Already AM!

The one we call "Jesus," is the Same Nature of all in all, being all. And it is this Nature which is of the Utmost Importance, because the "nature" is like the actor behind the mask and costume. The name "Jesus" (Savior) incorporates the Whole of the purpose of one appearing to the world of appearances, or the "this world," which Jesus said he had no part of. Jesus told us, very plainly, "I am the light of the world," then he turned to us and looked straight into our eyes (just like the actor playing a part turns to the camera and looks straight into the camera to speak, and you know that what is being said is directed to you), "ye are the light of the world." What you think of as yourself when you look in the mirror is similar to being in costume and mask playing the part of Nic, but this does not mean that you are the costume and mask, rather you are the Life behind the costume. Why is that? That you might be the LIGHT (or Understanding) to your world.

I do not know the "people" you know, Nic, therefore I cannot be the Light to your world. Jesus was the Light to his world. You are Light to your world. You are the Savior on Mt. Zion to your world, the highest point, or the highest and Only Mind to your world. You come that they might have Life and that more abundantly. When you realize this, you die to your idea of a little personality called Nic as being you and realize truly Who you are! You realize that the "Nic" part is the part you are playing for now, but the True You is the One "inside" so to speak. You begin to realize that all is within you as you see it before you. The True Self, which is the Spirit, which is the Life, Truth, God is living, moving and being as Nic for now. The True You can never die, for in Truth, you were never born. You are an eternal Being, eternal Spirit - not a separate being or spirit from God, for there is Only One. That One is the same One I am. Realize that there is only one of us.

You do not live in a body either, Nic, rather the body is a tool for your use at

"this time." As you simply "be" the Light you are, you will begin to understand things you could not otherwise. You do not have to worry about getting a message out, or evangelizing the world, or "saving" anyone. You have only to be What-Who you are and "let" the Truth speak for itself.

If you will go to the scriptures and read Obadiah 21 you will find the verse which reads: "And saviors shall come up on mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau; the kingdom shall be the Lord’s." Note that the scripture reads "saviors" plural, and in another place Jesus quoted from the Psalms 82:6, in John 10:34, "Ye are gods."- plural, although this is a little different, in that Jesus was talking about the fact that it is a belief that there are "angels" or "gods" (or people) who have died and are inhabiting a heaven somewhere. But still it speaks of the plural. We are not "gods" lower case, and there are no "people" either as gods, angels, or even "people" off in a heaven somewhere. The True Self I am is God here now. Just as the Sun has many rays, which are all still the Sun, so God has many rays (lights) of Himself – which are all still God. "Ye are the light…" As saviors of our world or our view of the world, we are the light revealing The Way. In Truth there is only one world, and it is not what "appears to be." Rather that which is Perfect, Whole and Complete World is what is and always has been, "world without end."

The "death" Jesus suffered was the death to the personal self, that the Christ Self might be fully realized – for in Truth there is no "personal self." Thus you must die to the self (the ego) you have seen as "yourself" as well, and realize the putting away of the "old man." In Reality, there never has been an "old man," rather that thinking is just a way of thinking that is referred to as "the old man." Once that ‘thinking’ is sealed in the tomb forever, it is over! For all that emerges from the tomb is Christ. "Christ" is our Life" (Colossians 3:4), and you cannot be separated from your life, therefore you are Christ! Christ is the Light or Understanding of your True Nature, Self, Life, Spirit, Mind, God. You cannot be separated from the Self you are! The cross represents – not your having to die physically, because in Truth there is nothing physical – for all is Spirit; but the cross represents your dying to the thought of being separated from God – Life. Right now you are

beginning to realize this death to the "self" so that you might realize the True Self you are! That is what you are experiencing, thus our conversation regarding the things you are experiencing and how they are affecting you.

Jesus abolished the illusion of death, showing us that after going through such an idea as death he was back on the scene in no time, again eating fish on the beach, after building a fire to prepare the fish, talking and revealing to those who could not see through the illusion of death, telling – and showing - them that "death" as they have thought of it is but an illusion. You cannot run about telling everyone this, anymore than you can run about saying, "I am God." It is not the ego self, the "Nic" that is God. It is the True Self which is God. Jesus said, "I and my Father (Consciousness) are one," and it got him crucified, yet what is true of him is true of you! He clearly warned us not to throw these precious pearls of Truth to the swine (mind) which cannot hear such things, for the natural man cannot understand the things of the Spirit, neither can he know them, for they are spiritually discerned. (I Cor 2:14) But as they come to you, and they will, you then will be able to be the savior to "your world," in the sense that you are "available" as the light in their world so that if they come to you, then you may reveal what you know – as you know - the Truth.

Yes, you will sometimes need, as said before, time alone, quiet time, but that does not mean you will stop going and doing and living life, rather you will begin to really live! The one requisite to the realization of the Truth I Am is the desire of Heart to know the Truth! This desire will require that you lay your idea of your life down, your idea of "Nic" and your idea of what "Nic wants" or what "Nic" is about. But oh, Nic, what you receive in return is greater than anything you could ask or think. You will find that this New Life is quite different from what you have known heretofore. You actually are A New Creature in Christ, complete in Him, born anew, fresh and shining, beautiful in Being, and Magnificent in wonder. Joy knowing, Love glowing, Life flowing. And you will begin to see a new heaven and a new earth, right where the old concept of such has been – for "the kingdom of heaven is within you."

The moments in which you retire to the quietness and solitude will be brief, yet you will carry the quietness within, and realize what it truly means to know "peace which sur-passes all (personal) understanding." This comes in a moment in the twinkling of an eye, and yet the light continues to rise in you as the sun coming up in the eastern sky until the light floods the sky and covers the earth. You will not hide yourself away from the world, rather you will know the "world" – and see through it for what it is, and you will come out of your moments, or seasons of refreshing and quietness to greet the world, that your world might see the Light you are! Might see the Life you are, that your world might experience the witness of Truth you are! Without a word you are the Light to your world, but when they come to you, and they will, you will speak as God. Realize that from this moment forth, every single word you speak is God speaking. If it is not the Truth, it is nothing, absolutely nothing, and it is as if you have said nothing in those moments. How do you know it is Truth? Well, the litmus test is: Does it have a beginning and does it have an expected end? Then it is not Truth, for Truth had no beginning and has no end.

Example: Love had no beginning, Life had no beginning, Joy had no beginning, Light had no beginning, Spirit had no beginning, etc. Thus these are eternal, ever-lasting, Omnipresent! Here always, never ceasing. Not only are they attributes of your True Self, they are what you are! You are Love. You are Life. You are Joy. You are Light. Just as you felt you were touched by the Love and Joy of God in your dream - experience, and that Love and Joy flowed over and through you, this is what you are and what you are about. You are the Love and Joy which touches those who are "in your world," as you Be the Light of your World! What I am telling you takes you up and out of the world as you have thought of it! You find yourself "in heaven," because you find your Self in heaven.

The cross then, is your dying to the concept that you are a "human being" living on a planet earth which hangs in space and time. It is a death to the concept that you are subject to the accidents, diseases, difficulties, problems and catastrophes which are associated with the world of "belief." YOU are God-Being! You truly are Spirit Being, and Spirit cannot become ill. Spirit (God) cannot become diseased or decayed, cannot fail, cannot be without, lack, cannot be killed or die. Time and space are nothing but concepts which are set aside as you realize the Life you are! There never was a "prodigal" mind, a "prodigal" son. You are the Son which has always been at home with Father. You are the One who has always been "behind the scenes" of what has appeared to be "your life." Know this! Know that when I say I Am – no matter what "I" claim to be there can only be One I. Once you know "this" I, the I That I Am, you are home and you have only to observe the world before you and see what Life brings.

There are many questions which arise when you first hear this, but if you will ask your Self, you will be directed to the answer, or the answers, will simply come to you.

You come into manifestation – as Nic - in this moment and everything this character requires comes with it. If you showed up without the form, or what you call "body," and were invisible, where those around you heard a voice, saw things move, but could not see anything, first of all they would run in fright, for their eyes are not open to the Spirit. Secondly, there would be no way for them to relate to you at all. So, for the "time being" you are here as Nic, but realize that there is no "time" in God, so all you have thought of as being a past is wiped out. You have a clean slate. And all you project as being a possible future is mere speculation. It means nothing. NOW is all that means anything. In this moment you are, and the world that appears to you in this moment is its only reality. It is here in you, it is real in you, but that is its only reality. The world-body arises every morning as you open your eyes to it.

It is interesting that the disciples, seeing Jesus walking across the water thought he was a ghost. In a manner of speaking, it was they who were the ghosts, for these bodies are holograms, Light in forms which we relate to as "us" until we realize the True Body is that which is All. The True Body is that which I am, without an outline, without a form, and yet not formless, rather form-full, all in all since all I see is in Me.

You must come as did Jesus – by taking on the "form of man" in order to show them that though you appear as flesh and blood, you are NOT flesh and blood, and neither are they, for ‘flesh and blood’ cannot inherit the kingdom of God. ‘Flesh and blood’ represents personal identity, and no personal identity nor personality will or can inherit the kingdom of God. "Yet in my flesh shall I see God" is true in that "the pure in heart shall see God." In the Conscious Awareness which is your True State of Being, you are pure in heart (mind) and at this appointed hour you are awakening to the Truth of Who you truly are. This must be birthed in you, and it is being birthed in you or you would not be reading this. If you can hear anything in this writing you are hearing it with the Only Mind there is. You are hearing, seeing, understanding out of the True Mind – the Only Mind, or you would understand nothing that is being said here. You are shortly to realize – beyond the mental knowing of it – the Truth of this as your True Being, your True Self.

Do not be afraid to let the personality go, for you do not have to die to prove anything to anyone. You do not have to tell this to anyone. You do not have to teach or preach or try to make anyone see it the way you do. You simply "be" and "let," and you will be amazed at how Life takes you places you could not imagine on your own. And yet – You – the True You goes nowhere. There is no "where" to go! All is here now! "The Kingdom of God is within you," and likewise, you are the Kingdom (Consciousness of God), so where could you go? Just as the fish in the ocean and the ocean is in the fish, so are you in God and God in you. To explain God is like asking the fish to explain the only world, atmosphere of Life he knows.

Jesus has already taken the dying as a man thinks of death upon himself for you as the cross, but your experience of "death to self" to realize "I am the Way, I am the Truth, I am the Life," must take place within your very Heart, which is The Mind of God, in order for you to "be" the light to your world. You must know your True Self, your "God" in order to be! For when you know God, you Be God.

In Obadiah where the scripture speaks of "judging" Esau", realize that "Esau," represents the flesh world, the so-called "human world," or "personal mind." Once you see there is no such thing, that God is all, then you see it (judge, consider or decide it) for what it is. Realizing it is all in you, in the Mind you are, the Spirit, it has no more hold on you! It is a conceptual world, without fault, without sin, without duality and without humanity. "Duality" is another word for "sin," and it is simply the thinking that "I am human and I am apart, separated, from God." To think that I am human and God is Spirit separates and divides and God never separates and divides. God brings all into Oneness. The world before me is the world of Spirit and I bring it into being either as heaven on earth or hell on earth. If I think I am human living in it and of it and I believe what "it" has to say to me, rather than I speaking to it, then it can be hell for sure. But when I realize Who I AM then I begin to bring into my realm of vision a new world – that which is Perfect! "For this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the Truth."

Jesus never meant for us to "worship" him, the man Jesus, for that is worshipping, "ye know not what," as Jesus told the woman at the well. When Jesus told us that he was/is the light of the world, then turned and told us that we are the same, he was saying, "What I am you are." And yet he was saying not what "I" Jesus the man am, not the personality, but what I AM - you are, what I AM . Men who do not have eyes to see this think you are saying that the personality is claiming to be God. Men who do not have ears to hear cannot hear this, because they consider it blasphemy, and in deed if someone is running about saying that their little personality self is God then it is truly blasphemous. But that is NOT what we are saying here. There is no "man" – no personality anywhere which can make such a claim, for "no man shall see God and live," therefore, when you see what is being said here, you – as the personality, the ego, do die! But You, the True You remains eternally, as ever you have!

When Moses asked in his heart, "Who shall I say sent me?" the answer came, "THE I AM THAT I AM," thus Moses knew that the I which he spoke of when he said, "I will," or "I can," or "I have," is the ONLY I, and you must know that as well. But he was awakening to the Truth of Who I Am. "Awake thou that sleepest and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light." (Ephesians 5:14) "Awake, awake and put on thy strength oh Zion." (Isa 52:1) "Now it is high time to awake out of sleep…" Romans 13:11. "Awake to righteousness…" (I Cor 15:34). Wake up, Nic! Wake up and realize Who you truly are. You are God, the God of your world. The Mind behind the scenes playing on the screen of life before you. Do not rush to tell – rather be still within and let the words come when they come flowing from out of your belly as living water. This is Life, Nic, and you are just beginning to Live!

So then, why Jesus? Why did God appear to us in the form of Jesus? Answer: To abolish our idea of death, and to tell us to, "bear witness of the Truth," - Who we are! It is not necessarily by words that the Truth is made known, although words will serve as tools and are useful when called for, but the Truth is made more evident in our simply "being" as the Being we are. If the Light of Life is shinning words are not only not necessary, but often get in the way. Having buried the old man, or the old notions and ideas, we ascend into the Mind of our True Self, the Mind which is our Self, the Mind I AM. We live in the Life of Resurrection, ‘Resurrection Life’, the ever-ascending, proceeding, expanding I – that I Am, for we actually are the One who never died! This is the Truth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And I bear witness of It. And my Father (Consciousness) bears witness with me. Love, joy & peace.
