I agree with you. I focus on the words he spoke verse what other people said or interpreted. It is my responsibility to learn from him directly as his spirit guided him through this life in a non-violent way. He had his own challenges and he fully recognized that. But I'm not going to let others convince me that he wanted us all to be slaves to the king. That does not resonate with his words at all! He said that we would be in a position to do GREATER works than what he was able to accomplish. So not only are we to meet his example, but exceed it. Thank you for sharing your views. I resonate with them greatly.

Your probably one of the people I get to connect to most on this topic.
I still stand by that story I told you.
No one else knew but him, and here I am lifting myself out of the darkness and learning to stand on my own two feet while raising up others.
He has returned and I see him in so many people. He speaks through random strangers (even you hinting at my seperation from my kids father without ever much mentioning the story)
He answers prayers through us all.
Its the most sacred and profound expirience.
May we continue to heal
I'd love to start a non secular Sunday celebration looking and discussing the stories. ☆
Stay warm be well and
Best wishes always.
I agree with you. I believe the second coming is not the flesh & body 'Jesus' returning, which is why I don't worship him. Instead it is each of us walking the path. We are in full agreement there. Peace to you my friend! I love the fact that you are open to discussing these topics. So refreshing and rewarding. Thank you.
The church I use to go to also taught me that interpretation.
It was after the "weird" stuff happened after childbirth birth that I started reconnecting to spirit teachings. (Trying to make sense of what was going on with me)
I was at this point shunned by my church group for needing to take space to find his true character and seperating from their "Jesus Club".
It was this verse that changed my opinion on that:
[Mathew 11]
Jesus replied, “To be sure, Elijah comes and will restore all things.J)" data-cr="#cen-NIV-23712J" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 0.625em; line-height: 22px; position: relative; vertical-align: top; top: 0px;"> 12 But I tell you, Elijah has already come,K)" data-cr="#cen-NIV-23713K" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 0.625em; line-height: 22px; position: relative; vertical-align: top; top: 0px;"> and they did not recognize him, but have done to him everything they wished.L)" data-cr="#cen-NIV-23713L" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 0.625em; line-height: 22px; position: relative; vertical-align: top; top: 0px;"> In the same way the Son of Man is going to sufferM)" data-cr="#cen-NIV-23713M" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 0.625em; line-height: 22px; position: relative; vertical-align: top; top: 0px;"> at their hands.” 13 Then the disciples understood that he was talking to them about John the Baptist.
In this verse It appears he is saying john the baptist was the reincarnated spirit of Elijah.
Badly mistreated.... indeed. Clarifying he
Knew what fate was to be awaiting him...
~ and When I tried to reconnect to my christian friends to discuss I was later blocked completely and called bad names.... ^_^;;;
Happy to have those who care to dive deeper into all these subjects.
That is not the only time he has taken himself off the pedestal that people seem to want to put him on. He did that when he confronted somebody for calling him 'good teacher'. Matthew 19:17.
That is why I don't refer to 'Jesus' but rather a philosophy for how we should be living our lives, a level of behaviour, self-governance and consciousness that allows us to fulfill the benefits we want to see manifested here for the benefit of all and then the Spiritual rewards will follow.
That is a very interesting observation. Thank you for sharing it, despite all the markup text mixed in with your post. ;)
I figured you would have no trouble reading through it ;) hahaha sorry about that!
I have edited this story again
