Jesus is ...

I am here to confront lies, and assert My Truth, to confront darkness and spread My Light, to confront hate and share My Love. I do this freely, demanding nothing of you in return. The True God does not demand anything of you, but offers you blessings, if you will receive them. If what I say can help you to understand and follow Me, the Way, the Truth, and the Light, better, then praise God. This is part of My role; it was then, and it is now.

I challenged the beliefs and practices of the religious authorities in My time, and I question them today as well. Why? Because the authorities and followers think that they have some quality of "purity" if they "religiously" follow prescribed rituals their church has adopted in "god's" name. They are mistaken. I challenged Jews as I challenge Christians today. It does not demonstrate "purity" to believe that every word of the Bible is true or the word of God. It simply shows a closed mind, and a resistance to hearing the greater Truth within you. Even sayings and teachings ascribed to me in the book are erroneous. The Lie usurped the Truth. Purity has been corrupted and twisted, misrepresented and misinterpreted, in a very organized way. This is what Darkness does and has always done.

Purity is the essence of My Divine Father-Mother God. It is not bestowed upon you by any church or church authority. It is the spark of Light and Life within you. If you are a being of Light, you are born with this spark within you. If you have Me in your heart, you have the essence of Purity, Truth, and Goodness within you. The rituals of the worldly, hierarchical religious authorities are misguided. The principles and teachings you follow are not Mine.

I was never baptized by John the Baptist. And yet, his ritual has become a foundation of the Roman Catholic Church, Baptist churches, and countless others. Along with this is the teaching that you are fundamentally a sinner going to hell unless the church steps in to save your soul. Redemption from sin is another false belief promoted by John the Baptist and his followers, to this day.

John the Baptist was an incarnation of Satan, in his time. He sought to usurp My authority, My teachings, and the Truth, Light, and Power that I bring. And, since his teachings became fundamental to Christianity, Satan has largely controlled the Church. Add to this the fact that Paul was also an aspect of Satan, in his time, who also managed to usurp My authority, and dominate My teachings. Today, go to any church and you will see and hear the dominance of John the Baptist and the "apostle" Paul.

Perhaps you can see how the Truth, the Way, and the Light — the Life of God — has been usurped by Satan, from the beginning. He was the Serpent in the garden, he formulated the religious teachings of organized religion, and he managed to usurp the role of the True God in this world. When I declare Satan to be the false "god" of this world, it is the same Truth that the religious authorities would not accept in My time. They would not accept it now, either.

The angry, judgmental, war-mongering, murderous "god" of the Bible is not My Father. He is of Darkness. He is the usurper, the pretender, the false god, the liar and murderer from the beginning. As are his children of Darkness, who rule all aspects of life, government, culture, education, law, and religion, in all nations. Perhaps now you can see why I ask that you learn to listen to the Truth in your own heart. That is where I speak to you.

In the name of Christ Jesus, this is so.
