The Second Coming of the Christ Consciousness

The date of the 'Second Coming' of the Christ and the nature of the event have been among the greatest mysteries of the last two thousand years. Countless predictions and personal claims have been made over the centuries, but they have led only to disappointment, ever-increasing disillusion and apathy. Indeed, the entire subject has now become so confused and emotionally charged that it is hard to reveal its true meaning and purpose without either offending traditional religious believers, or inviting the scorn of sceptics. Most people will be surprised, therefore, to learn that this long-heralded event is already a reality and is currently manifesting among us at subtle, spiritual levels.

The Second Coming of the Christ consciousness is an event of such universal significance and its implications for humanity and our planet so profound that it is no longer possible to permit misguided and damaging Christian concepts identifying with a physical reappearance of the Master Jesus to go unchallenged. It is also high time to dispel the religious distortion that 'the Christ' is a an exclusive attribute of Jesus, to which no human can hope to aspire.

The Christ is in fact the essence of the God force that is now present within each one of us as an integral and inseparable part of our being. This was made possible as a direct result of the human and planetary initiation undertaken by Jesus the Christ at the First Coming. The purpose of his sacrifice was to liberate the human race from the duality of this third-dimensional realm of matter and its limiting belief structures, so that, at Second Coming, all those freely choosing and prepared could follow him by evolving into the higher dimensions. He emphatically did not come to save us from the consequences of our misguided thought, word and deed (sin) - the Universal Law of Cause and Effect (Karma) sees to that and automatically imposes restitution in an appropriate form but taught instead a Universal truth that transcends the dualistic illusion of our separation from the divine.

The essence of God, called the Father, is accessed, as Jesus demonstrated for our benefit, through an open heart and the wisdom to recognise the interconnectedness and interdependence of all life forms as one evolving unit of consciousness. It is this collective, holistic intelligence that is the 'God' of love at the centre of the universe and not some separative, judgemental, white-bearded patriarch of the demiurge beloved of Christianity! The Divine is now to be experienced within, as we gradually realise that we collectively represent the expression of the God force here in matter.

The cause of the mystery surrounding Second Coming, as is so often the case in matters of distorted Christian theology, lies at the hands of those who compiled the various books comprising the 'authorised' version of the bible. Powerful religious bodies and governments that cynically used the bible as a political tool of mass disempowerment. together with generations of 'interpreters', considered certain works to be unsuitable for general circulation. Thus many scrolls were withdrawn and secreted by the church. At the same time, and unfortunately for Christianity, 'unauthorised' copies of the same manuscripts were also hidden by religious sects defying the censorship of the central authority in Rome.

In recent years, many such ancient texts have come to light in the sands and caves of the Middle East. Yet invariably they have fallen into the very hands that have most to lose if the truth they contain were to be revealed. In the exceptionally few cases, including this work, where religious interference has been specifically prevented from altering, suppressing and even destroying them, they have been indispensable in highlighting serious discrepancies in Christian teaching. As the closely-guarded secrets of humanity's spiritual heritage and potential as Divine Beings and guardians of this planet are now revealed, the Holy Word assumes an altogether different connotation.
