Path of Christhood 
What you have seen throughout history is that – truly – most people in
Christianity  the world have followed the outer path and very few have discovered

Anti-Christ the inner path. But I am telling you that we are now at the fortunate

point, where there is the potential that a much larger group of people

can awaken to the inner path and truly understand the universal nature
Help Jesus  of that path. But we must give them assistance to be awakened. For it
Ascended Master  will not just happen by mere happenstance or by some divine force for-

The WORD incarnate is not a limited phenomenon that could only hap-

plained – in order to become the open door for the Living Word, you
have to be willing to first go through the purging process of being willing
to allow the WORD to purify your own being from those imperfections
 that could cause you to either block the WORD or color the WORD with
your own mindset, your own dualistic filter.

WORD incarnate
The question really is whether people, those who are the spiritually
evolved and mature people, are going to be willing to step up and let go
of the ancient mindset that by following certain outer directions you can
qualify for salvation. Will people be willing to acknowledge the reality
that unless you change your inner being, unless you change your con-
sciousness, you cannot qualify for salvation? Which means that you
have to take total responsibility for yourself.

The reason why official Christianity turned me into an idol, turned me

into the savior who is up there on a pedestal saving all people, is that not
enough people were ready to understand the inner path. And then the
blind leaders – who have rejected the Living Word for eons – stepped
into the Christian churches, took over and set themselves up as the au-
thority, which is what they always do. The power elite set themselves up
as the only ones who know how to interpret the Word.

They do exactly as I said of the scribes and Pharisees: they turn the Word
of God into no effect in their tradition. They teach for doctrines, the com-
mandments of men (Mark 7:7), because they take the Living Word and
they project their own dualistic filter onto that WORD. And now they in-
terpret the word through that filter, setting up outer doctrines and outer
rules which they then claim are infallible. And then they will use that
outer tradition to judge anyone who comes representing the Living
Word, in their attempts to either silence that person or prevent the
people from following the true leader who represents the Living Word
instead of the dead word.

As soon as a word has been expressed in this world, in a form that can
be copied and interpreted, as soon as that happens, the Word becomes
the dead word. As I explained before, the Bible, the written Bible that
you pick up, is the dead word. But if you read that word and allow it to
enter your heart and reach for the Comforter who can breathe new life
into that word as you study it, well then the word that you read can be-
come the Living Word in your heart. But it cannot become the Living
Word in your head, where you interpret it with the analytical, linear
mind.

In order to truly accept the Living Word and accept yourself as the open
door for the Living Word, you have to be willing to let go of the outer tra-
dition and the mindset behind that tradition, which really is an attempt
to create a guaranteed path to salvation: “If I follow these outer rules,
God has to save me—even if I have not been willing to change the condi-
tion of my heart, to pull the beam from my own eye. Even if I still have
all these lies and imperfect conditions in my heart, God still has to save
me.”
