Challenge

I just read in "Christ & Empire, From Paul to Post colonial Times":

Is the ultimate challenge of the way of Christ not that Christ is human like us, but that we are human like him? 

That seems to me to be a statement worth contemplation. It has mind stretching possibilities.

As someone who is human like him, I also then have a Divine pedigree.  I too am not only God's own, but am part of, connected to the Christ and all humans. This is a Oneness position, the point of view of mystics in all ages. And it is what I know to be so.

Lord, I open my heart and soul to receive these words and let them grow into full bloom so that I completely realize who I am in Truth, in Your Eyes.
