The Living Christ: Conversations With a Teacher of Love

JESUS: If you see Christ in me, you must also see it in yourself and in your brother or sister. If you don't, it is not Christ that you see, but some form of specialness valued by the world. You cannot experience true equality with others until you acknowledge that the Christ lives in each one of you. PAUL: So my awakening is crucial not only for myself, but for the community in which I live? JESUS: Christ is the light born in the darkness. It is the flame of self acceptance that extends to others. It is the tiny ray of light that begins in your heart and becomes a beacon that lights the way for all. The promise of Christ is not only that you may end your suffering by surrendering to God's Will, but that through your surrender, you may become an expression of that Will.
