And in consideration of what our Creator-Son went through for us during his incarnation as Jesus of Nazareth, a crucifixion no less, surely a substantial number of his followers will become imbued with the need to assist in bringing the task described in this following paragraph into a state of reality:
"The time is ripe to witness the figurative resurrection of the human Jesus from his burial tomb amidst the theological traditions and the religious dogmas of nineteen centuries. Jesus of Nazareth must not be longer sacrificed to even the splendid concept of the glorified Christ. What a transcendent service if, through this revelation, the Son of Man should be recovered from the tomb of traditional theology and be presented as the living Jesus to the church that bears his name…."(2090)
Some people believe that the Christian Churches are unlikely to return to the living Jesus if the task is to be undertaken at the top of the ecclesiastical hierarchy. But if it is to commence at the grass roots level, then recognition of an individual and personal relationship with the indwelling Spirit of the Father would appear to be the most productive first step.
And in the case that any of our readers find themselves in a position of being able to help Christians realize their own indwelling, a list of relevant New testament quotations is appended.
