So Many Things To Consider 1: The Anonymous Jesus
Neville Goddard stressed that if when you hear the words God, Jesus, Christ, Lord, Jehovah, and the like, you visualize and/or represent to yourself these as human characters, you have the wrong concept of God. None of these were ever a human being with a personal history as we have. And yet, he claimed to have stood in the presence of the Power of God, pure power, who was a person. And to have been embraced by God who was pure love; i.e., by a person who was the pure love of God.
The names we have in scripture are representations of the nature of states. There is one God, the Consciousness and Imagination of the Ineffable, and an infinite number of states of consciousness possible within It. Eil Shaddai is God as the limitless provider, YHWH is Its action within Its creation, Jesus is the beneficent character of that action. (Yes, there were three languages in that - Aramaic, Hebrew, and English.)
I understand the period between the destructions of the first and second temples in Jerusalem to have contained a specially designated "Season of Grace" (so called by Victor N. Alexander), the 70 sevens of years after the Babylonian exile. I also understand this period to have been a picture of what God is doing on the macro scale. An example. A practical photograph of history.
And the exciting thing is it culminates in the evolution to Consciousness. THAT's what is going on! I got from Carl F. Rehnborg in Jesus and the New Age of Faith (and I agree with him) that, at the closure of the Season of Grace picture, a certain Jew pursuing the righteousness God holds man to in the scriptures perceived that the evolution to the consciousness that is Messiahship was POST-MORTEM. That it was GIVEN by God in being RISEN from the dead after the ACT of giving one's life for others. His name probably was not Eashoa or Yeshua or anything like that, though these cannot be ruled out. The thing was, he was representative of YHWH in the overall history being represented in the Season of Grace.
"The Holy Spirit had not yet been given." Man had not yet evolved to the state of Divine Consciousness in the natural history of the earth. When this guy achieved it in the Season of Grace, it became a possibility for everyone. It crystallized. Soon, it broke forth among others who followed suit. But the guy everyone sees when they see Jesus or hear his voice or are healed by him - is anonymous. Yes, he is Jesus, the beneficence of YHWH, the action of God among us, and is happy with that. All we really know about him is that he IS, and that he DID.
