JESUS CHRIST VII
YE HAVE learned that I, Jesus Christ, am God’s Only Begotten Son, His Holy Spirit, and that as such I AM the Light and Life of each individual Son of God Who as the Highest Self is the Directing Spirit of every man.
I AM therefore the Light and Life in every man in the world, and I have been growing and unfolding mens’ consciousness as fast as he is able to understand Life’s meaning and purpose.

But his soul during the many eons of time since the beginning has had many bodies, each earthly lifetime being a new season and opportunity for growth, even as each Springtime the trees and vegetation grow longer and more numerous branches, and are given a new covering of leaves that grow out of seemingly dead stalks.
And even as the trees and bushes grow to greater size year after year, unfold to maturity, blossom and give forth a little fruit, and each season increase the yield and quality of their fruit until they reach ripened perfection; so do I grow souls lifetime after lifetime in earthly bodies until they too come into their ripened perfection.
But unlike trees and bushes, it takes many, many ages to bring souls to their maturity, a lifetime to a soul being but as a year to vegetation; and only the chosen few souls, the finest and purest specimens of the race, have I grown to that stage, and but few of them have reached ripened perfection.
Know this, beloved, that ye be not concerned about thy growth or how old is thy soul, for in thy true Being thou art a Son of God, Who is all that thou art and Who is One with Me, Who AM growing thee into My Likeness as fast as thy outer self can bear it and understand.
