Higher Consciousness, Christ Consciousness and JesusI received an email from a reader questioning people’s ability to connect with higher consciousness and claiming that I have yet to be mentored by the true God-meaning Jesus Christ. However, there are many misunderstandings about Jesus and Christianity and the key to navigating this time successfully requires us to be examples of Jesus, to integrate with Christ consciousness, with higher consciousness, not merely to acknowledge his existence or to believe in him. This article explains why.
Unforgivable Sin and Mental Illness – How Do I Know If I Have Committed the Unforgivable Sin?As a Professional Counselor and active Christian, I have often met clients who come to me ashen faced and trembling because they have believed that they have committed the unpardonable sin. That is, Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit.

There are many recorded people in the past who have died cursing Jesus Christ and His Sacrifice. That my dear friends is the unforgivable sin. Die rejecting Jesus. You see, Jesus is the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit in ONE. The Trinity. The power that rose Jesus from the Dead is the Power of the Holy Spirit. To reject Jesus is to reject the Power of the Holy Spirit of God operating in Jesus Christ. That is the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit.

What The Bible Teaches About Humility“True Bible Humility is not the degradation of self, but rather, the recognition and acknowledgment of the greatness of God, our need for Him, and our need for each other.” Many people have varied views concerning this most vital spiritual force. Some people do not even consider its power and effect upon those who submit themselves to it. But humility is valuable because it attracts more and more of the favor, power and blessings of Almighty God. Sometimes the best way to determine what something is, is to discover what it is not. This is definitely true concerning Bible humility. People have believed that to be humble means to be in poverty. Others assumed that to be humble means to lack ambition, and just live without the finer things of life. However, according to the Bible, that cannot be true. Abraham was a humble man, who actually attained the status of being God’s friend. Yet he was rich. So was King David, Solomon, and others. So humility could not be poverty.
