Jesus is the Word
- The Father revealed Himself through the power of the Word.
- The Word has come from the fullness in the Father’s Thought and Mind.
- The Word is called Savior, redeeming those who have not known the Father.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
And the Word was made flesh.
Jn. 1:1 – 1:14
IGNORANCE Brings ERROR
All have sought for the One from Whom they have come forth. All have been within Him, the Illimitable, the Inconceivable, Who is beyond all thought.
But ignorance of the Father brought terror and fear, and terror grew dense like a fog, so that no one could see. Thus ERROR grew powerful. Error worked on her material substance in vain, since error did not know the Truth, and assumed a fashioned FIGURE and prepared, with power and with beauty, a SUBSTITUTE for Truth.
This deceptive figure were as nothing, whereas established Truth is unchanging.
Error had no root; she was in a fear regarding the Father. She was there preparing works and deeds of forgetfulness and fear in order to take captive.
Error is the thought believed in a selfhood separate and apart from God, this error self is called the human or the ego.
Error fashioned
“a figure”, which is an “image” in mind, this image is the “body” hiding the very Presence of Christ, the Son of God
"Body" is a “deceptive figure” made of “mist”, “dust”, “fog”, “nothing”
Body being made of “erroneous nothing” and not of Spirit is therefore
Subject to change
Subject to attack
Subject to decay
Subject to death
Truth is Reality and is Spirit, Light, Love, Life: Changeless, immortal Perfection & Glory
Jesus Christ enlightened those who were in darkness because of forgetfulness.
- He enlightened them and showed them the Way, and that Way is the Truth He taught them.
- He is the one Who set the All in order, and the All is within Him.
- He teaches those who will learn.
- And those who will learn are the living, who are inscribed in the book of the living. They learn about themselves, receiving instruction from the Father, returning to Him.
Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word of God. Luke 4:5
The word of the Father appears
As for the Word
His Wisdom meditates on it
His Teaching utters it
His Knowledge has revealed it
His patience is a crown upon it
His Joy is in harmony with it
His Glory has exalted it
His character has revealed it
His rest has received it
His Love has incarnated it
His Faith has embraced it
Thus the Father’s Word goes out in the All as the fruition of His Heart and expression of His Will. It supports all and chooses all. It also takes the expression of all und purifies it.
- The Father opens His bosom, and his bosom is the Holy Spirit.
- He reveals His hidden Self, and His hidden Self is His Son, so that through the Father’s mercy the eternal realms may know Him, end their wearying search for the Father, and rest in Him, knowing that He is Rest.
Jesus is the Word made flesh
Jesus is
The “Word of God”: the Thought of God & the Mind of God
The “Voice of God”: the Holy Spirit
The embodied Thought of God, the Thought of God made flesh
The hidden Self of the Father and exalted Glory
Jesus work
Ends “deficiency” by revealing the Father
Filled deficiency in this world
Destroyed “the works of the devil” 1Jn. 3:8
Has done away appearances:
This world is the “appearance” of what was deficient; mere appearances serve in this world.
The moment the Father is known, deficiency will cease to be and the world of appearances will disappear in the Harmony of Oneness
