Hi everyone. I am really battling to get the balance between spirituality and Christianity. I have no doubt about God but I am very confused about the Jesus issue. Many of you talk about Christ consciousness as if Jesus was not actually the son of God but rather someone who understood what it meant to be one with God and he taught us very valuable lessons. I am trying to understand if what you are saying is that He was not actually the son of God any more than we are children/reflections of God. If that is what you believe, did He not rise again from the dead to save the world? If you do still believe in Jesus as the church teaches us to believe in Him, does this come back to the fact that only if someone accepts Jesus as their saviour can they share in spiritual awakening? I am getting the impression from this group and the teachings that spiritual awakening is for everyone no matter your religion. The law of one, in my opinion, makes this open to anyone who grasps the concept and lives according to that truth. This however leaves me very confused about the Jesus issue. Is He more symbolic, or was He real? If not actually the son of God, then the basis of Christianity falls flat on its face. What about all the proof. I am so ready for spiritual awakening as I have always known there is more, but I am finding it difficult to know how to move on from so much of the conditioning. If I can have the answers on how to deal with this, it would really help. I guess what I am finding confusing is that most of the teachings still refer to God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit and scripture is so often used so clearly you are not fighting the idea of Christianity totally but what about other religions? Any help or clarity on this would be great. Thanks to All in this community.
This is what I am working on Denis and it is from that place of oneness with God which is beyond form that I am experiencing peace and healing and it is such a beautiful place to experience life from. Practice, practice, practice. The more one does this, the easier and more natural it becomes.

Ok so I think I now understand. The first part is to do the meditation and to start journaling and then the actual event starts at 10am EST - so that will only be in approximately 2 hours time.
Soooooo good. When we no longer have to fight but rather just notice and turn our attention away from it, it all becomes so much easier. I love the way Mark & Aaron simplify things and make it less daunting. It helps us to realise that this is for everyone and not just the few. I am so grateful for being a part of this community ❤️
For sure...this is a lesson I am becoming more and more aware of and I am slowly changing my thoughts and reactions around the "pressing button" situations.
I love this group. The sharing of ideas and thoughts helps with getting a better understanding or a broader perspective. It is also a good way of practicing to see what resonates with you and what doesn't and gives you the opportunity to ask why?
