CHRIST 2/2/10
What is it? Who
is it? Where is it?
I was asked to write more about the
word "Christ". Boy have we ever been kept in the "babe"
level, when it comes to this word. It might be
surprising to some; joyious to others; and just want to
make EVERYONE shout, to REALIZE what all this word
contains.!!!
We were taught in the church
system, that when the word "Christ" is used, that we are
see the flesh man, Jesus. And it is true, Jesus was the
Christ. But, there is much more that could have been
taught about it. But RELIGIOUS MAN did not to embarrass
themselves or cause themselves to be cast aside by
"follow christians", for teaching, as Jesus did,
something that was not being taught, at the time.
What is Christ? Well as we know, we
were taught that Christ meant, anointing. As it seems
that we were taught that ONLY the man, Jesus, was
anointed. Or at least, to be anointed "enough", to BE
Who He truely was. God. We learned that in the OT, oil
was placed on, or poured over a person, (usually a
male). This pouring on of the oil, made the person, sort
of super special. And we really looked up to that
"anointed" person. But, at the same time, it seems that
we FORGOT that God is no respecter or persons.....hmmmm.
Think on this for a bit.
IF anointing comes from God, then
it stands to reason that "anointing" is a part of God's
LIfe, if not His entire Life. So, the word "Christ" is
God's Life. So, WHO is the anointing? It is God. Just as
breathing is a part, the main part, of the flesh life,
anionting is God's Life. And just as breathing flows
through these flesh bodies, God's Life flows through
each one of us. Notice, that I did not say, it flows
through "christians". We are told in the NT, that we
have ALL received His Fullness. This would include His
anointing, or better said, we have ALL received the
Fullness of His Life. And imagine, it is NOT just
christians that have His Fullness, it is EVERY MAN<
WOMAN AND CHILD. Can you imagine that? You see, God
doesn't see some as sinners and some as christians. He
sees ALL as HE CREATED or BROUGHT THEM FORTH OUT FROM
WITHIN HIMSELF. PERFECT!! It is us that doesn't see
others in this Light.
We are also told, in the NT, "you
have an unction". What is unction? It is another word
for "anointing". WE HAVE that anointing; not WILL HAVE
IT. We have it right now. The thing is, IF we don't know
it, we don't use it. We don't allow it to FLOW, but,
that doesn't change the fact that we still have it. It
has NOTHING to do with OIL. It has nothing to do with
"rubbing" in the oil. You see, in the natural, physical
world, we have to have a BODY for the oil to be rubbed
into. But, the body IS NOT US. The body is something
that we use as a vehicle. Something that our parents
gave a name to. We are Spirit, the SAME SPIRIT that God
is.
Does not Genesis tell us that we
came forth in the image of God? What is God? God is
Spirit. And there is ONLY ONE SPIRIT. So, we are
What He is. Some who still believe that we are nothing
more than "His representative", probably still believe
that it is robbery to be equal with God. To me, IF He
said, "you are My Image"; "you Have My Fullness"; and
"as I AM in this present world, SO ARE YOU", then it
seems to me that we have a CHOICE to make. Believe Him,
or believe our teachers, pastors and out mind that has
stopped thinking with His thoughts. I CHOOSE to believe
the former. Regardless of what the natural eyes might
see, reagardless of what the natural mind might tell us,
I CHOOSE to believe His Truth. It IS HIS IDEA of What,
and Who He made us as. Aparrantly He did not think it
was such a bad idea to have ONLY HIM, but many
individualized members of Himself, in the universe. If
you have a problem with it, go to Him, tell Him how
wrong He was.
Christ. Where is HE, IT? Well
Christ is not a person. Christ is a LIFE. And it is HIS
LIFE. God's Life. He lives within us. He IS US. It is
His Life and we are living that Life. So when we see
each other, we are truely seeing HIM. Now we need to
understand this. Our journey on this earth and beyond,
is a REMEMBERING of WHO we are. It is the lower mind
that changed its thinking, not what or Who He made us.
When this body gives out, we do not die, we cannot die,
we have eternal Life. And that Life is a coming into
REMEMBRANCE of WHERE we came from; Who we came from; and
What SUBSTANCE we are made from and of. HIM. HIM. HIM.
There is not two people living in
this body. It is ONE Whose God Mind dropped, from the
God thinking. It was not a surprise that the Mind
dropped. You see, we were in Him. We watched as He
created. We thought with His thoughts. All we knew was
Him, because He is all there was and all that there is.
As our mind dropped, we began this illusional thinking
with the flesh mind. We are now learning that we have a
CHOICE of what LIFE we want to be; His or this carnal
minded illusion of who we are.
We watched Him create with just a
thought that became a spoken word. And because we had
been given His Fullness (John 1:16) the same Power that
brought His Spoken Word into Being; that same Power goes
out behind our words and we have been creating also.
But, our thoughts are from the lower mind. Doesn't the
bible tell us that life and death are in the POWER of
the tongue? Well, think of the words that we have
spoken. Can you see that when we get angry and speak
harsh words, it brings death; it brings into being the
ugliness of those words that we speak. And likewise,
when we speak sweet, loving, caring words, we are
speaking LIFE. We feel the tenderness of words; we feel
the love that emits from words. And it is a CHOICE which
words we speak. We are learning to make God choices or
carnal choices. God choices are always about and for the
other person; carnal choices is always about and for us;
what we want, what we need, the way we want things done,
etc.
You might ask, "why do we speak
ugly words, IF my life is really His LIfe?" If you
haven't read my article on the Revised Study of Genesis,
you need to read it. (ask and I 'll send it to you). But
to give you a short version; The word "GOD", in Genesis
One, in its original language, Hebrew, Is Elohim. Elohim
means, "PLURAL GOD". Not Gods, but singular, God. And if
you get quiet and just think on it, you will see that IF
we have His Fullness; and He says we do; and IF we are
anointed, and He says we do; or have His LIfe flowing
through us, and He says It is; and IF we were created
out of His very Substance, and we are; then that means
we ARE WHAT HE IS. We are His Plural. I will tell you
right now, to understand this, you MUST set aside your
former RELIGIOUS teaching. Religious teaching will keep
you thinking that you HAVE TO SEE DEATH; and we are told
differently, in the bible. It will keep you thinking
that you are still a sinner; when we are told, "the Lamb
was slain BEFORE the foundation of the world", that
means BEFORE WE WERE EVER BROUGHT FORTH OUT FROM WITHIN
GOD. Oh, that little word "of", means, "out from
within". The image OF God means that that image that we
are, came OUT FROM WITHIN GOD. Amazing isn't it? Many
religious people will say, "we are not Him, we are His
representatives". Good news, folks, HE NEEDS NO
REPRESENTATIVES, HE IS ALL IN ALL.
So, I hope that what you will gain
from this is that "Christ" is God's Life flowing through
us. It is not a person, it is a Life. And that God's
Life is in us, is us. And since God's Life is God, so
are we. We just have to renew our mind back to the God
Mind. We are told that we HAVE THE MIND OF CHRIST,
right? We just have not been taught that we can USE that
mind instead of this fallen mind of the flesh. There is
no need to feel that it is robbery to be equal with God,
because we are ONE IN HIM; and it is what HE created or
brought us forth to be, HIMSLEF.
love and blessings.
It is
understandable for a child to be afraid of the dark;
but, why would an adult be afraid of the LIGHT?
