Still reading through your site Atlantis...I find it interesting how some old beliefs about Christ has become new again...Like a gnostic, New Age, and similar...Also like, Chakras, and Kaballa...All energy work with the oneness....and how to achieve and access it...I'm reading 4 other books at this time, so it takes me awhile.....😄

I copied just a little here..about Christ...

The evolutionary force to which we give the name "the Christ consciousness" (a term largely used by the metaphysical groups in the world today) focused itself in the person of the Christ in a manner hitherto unknown. This is the potency, latent in every human heart which was described by St. Paul as "Christ in you, the hope of glory" (Col., I, 27), and is that which, under evolutionary law, brings a man eventually into the Kingdom of God and "unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ." (Eph., IV, 13.) Of this potency and glory, Christ has ever been the symbol. During the [76] present period of hierarchical tension and as a result of His decision to reappear, Christ became the Embodiment of this energy and thus entered into a closer relation to humanity .....Christ is not a real person, but a closeness to "The Source"...

Its interesting what they understand as Christ.... christ actually is a expression for the human inner god, it is the divine part of ourselves, its not like another name people give to Jesus. It seems it came from chrestos (from the greek) and it was a title of respect meaning "the worthy". Christos (also from the greek) is used to designate a full intiate, someone who passed the last to be like enlightened or something.

They also relate Jesus to Prometeus, and Lucifer... those three where light bringers, as if they had a mission to enlighten mankind.

Lucifer means lightbringer ; Prometeus is the one who brought fire to mankind, and Jesus... you know.
