The Christ

He came to man...born of a blessed virgin...a gift from the glorious Father...the Christ...here to teach all that would listen...how to pray...and forgive...and to love. Jesus was a simple man who taught the simple truth. He did not adorn in elaborate and gorgeous vestments neither did he burden man with rules and regulations nor appointed himself a leader of men. The Christ denounced the Pharisees as hypocrites and opposed any kind of rituals, "They love the chief seats" and "Bind heavy burdens, grievous to be borne." He did not authorize any form of church...for Jesus was anti-ecclesiastical...he charged his apostles against all of this, "Be ye not called Rabbi: for no one is your master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren". (Matt. 23:8) Man is a slave to iniquity whose untamed spirit brings repeated transgression and his unwillingness to change his sinful nature can bring severe punishment. Any man who shall hinder the pure honesty of his soul...even thought he gains the riches of the world turns away from the kingdom of heaven. Christ taught that man is only punished by his own repeated mistakes. Man has access to an all-loving...all-powerful Father, who embraces him with his own strength, and will forgive him as often as need be...no matter how soaked in darkness and unchaste man becomes. Man must make everyday spiritual by knowing and doing all things in a spiritual light...a light instilled in man that can be made to burn forever by bringing the spirit to be as one with the truth of the Father.
  Seek not in all of the churches nor in all of religions...for these things with their embroidered trappings are a development of man...for the Father says, "Look for me within, for there is where you will find me", and the Christ insisted upon a certain spirit in man to bring the soul to a proper alingment.
  The Christ...Jesus...the son of God...now sits...dressed in his white robe with purple sash...a golden crown with a pink jewel set upon his head...the markings of his passion still visible...feasting in the presence of those that heed his words.
