Ascended Master - Jesus the Christ

The Son of God



When the apostle John wrote of the "true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world" he was describing the Son, whom he believed dwelt bodily in Jesus Christ. The Light, the Son, is also known as the Word and the Universal Christ. The Universal Christ is individualized for each one of us as our Higher Self. You can think of your Higher Self as your Inner Christ. Your Higher Self represents your potential to realize God and to become one with him.

        As the apostle Paul wrote of Jesus, "in him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily." But there is not one incarnation of Christ. Incarnating the Christ is in reality the goal of the mystics of every religion, whether or not they express it in these terms; for all mystics seek the direct experience of and union with their Higher Self. Most of us cannot yet say that we are "the Son of God," with an uppercase S. But we can say we are sons and daughters of God, with a lowercase s and d, who are in the process of fully developing our divine potential.
