I'm talking flesh and blood combined with Spirit. "God is Word" and "Christ the Loving Spirit".
It is by word that we know him "Now".
There is a Gulf between what I am saying, and what you think I am saying but with just a little time, that Gulf will dry up.
"Understanding" the effects of Christ in the flesh in the world will become apparent shortly.
Thats all I am saying, nothing more or less.
My only suggestion is to "get the nose out of the Book and look into the world for him".
Understand I don't say that as an affront of any type but rather like someone you met in your travels that said, LOOK and you did and you saw.
Thats all, not to contradict you or yours in any way but rather to extend the reach of your sight.
You of all people know what "Teachers do".
They are not preachers, they are teachers...Christ shows the way of a Teacher, not a Preacher but than you know that.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment.

Christ's message is LOVE....God's message is LOVE and to the degree we LOVE, OUR message is LOVE, it is to that extent, "we" en mass join the Trilogy to be "One with the One, All with the all".
There, the glaze is removed from the eyes and the Spiritual Smoke that pours from the Bible dissipates to the "simplicity" of "ultimate Truth".
WHEN LOVE and JUST LOVE, IS THE TEACHERS SPIRITUAL SUBJECT...the Curse of misunderstanding is broken.

Ultimately, regardless of ideology, reality, ultimately, rules.
The term "God with them" would tend to side with what I am saying and that indeed is the "reality" of the times we are in.
Truth expresses itself in reality.
To the degree ideology "ignores" that reality,
it is to that degree that "we" are separate from God as he is made manifest in the Son.
At least the differences in our points of view are made vivid in our exchange.

One final thing Thomas regarding the resurrection that you didn't clarify for me.
Let me put it this way.
We agree that Christ was Crucified in the flesh and his physical self was resurrected, yet you wait for his return while I see him in the flesh with no return necessary.
That was "complete in the resurrection"....He "Lives",
among the" LOwly",
Remember "LO I am with you ALWAYS."
What, do you suspect he is in hiding somewhere Thomas?..Pop'

ReplyDeleteYou are right. Jesus was both a prophet and a rabbi (teacher).
