The Birth of Christ

What meaning does Christ’s birth have for us in this time?
-- Christ’s commandments to us:
----Love the Lord your God with all your heart,
----With all your mind, with all your strength;
----Love your neighbor as yourself

The birth of Christ in us is described by these.
----Fully immersed in the love of God, the Divine.
----And see That Divine Life everywhere.

Christ felt that everyone and everything in creation was dear to Him.
--As the Christ consciousness awakens in our lives
--So too do all people and all of creation
--Become dear to us.
--Eventually that celestial, universal connectedness
--Makes it impossible for us to ever
--Treat anyone any other way than with perfect love.

Because loving our neighbor as yourself
--Means treating another as we would have them treat us; and this becomes
--Love people like you love yourself;
--And this becomes see them as yourSelf

And this is the full birth of Christ in us.
