Jesus Taught The Law To Become The Christ/Anointed
In accord with the Gospel teachings (see Jesus Taught To Become The Christ http://lawofthegospels.ebionite.com/#BecomeTheChrist ), a seeker achieves the Anoiting/Christing by fulfilling the Laws that brings about Wholeness of Mind and Spirit. The Cycle Flow of Consciousness begins when energy or vital life-force enters our being from our pre-existent Soul. And this energy is channeled through our seven spiritual centers and our twelve spheres of mind -- and if we live in accord with the Law as Jesus taught -- and we fulfill the Natural Laws of Higher Consciousness -- our mind and spirit is able to evolve -- and as a seeker, is then able to receive the Divine Manna or Knowledge of the Kingdom as Jesus taught.
What is personified in the Gospels as the "narrow gate", is the check-point that receives the vital life-force of those thoughts which fulfill the process in the words: "…take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ" (2 Cor 10:5). Those thoughts that have taken on the necessary wholeness that permits them to be drawn through the "narrow gate", in then able to nourish the development of the mind, and initiate the transformative process of mental-expansion and spiritual-deepening. In contradistinction, what Jesus portrayed when he warned that: "But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment" (Matt 12:36) -- reference was being made to thoughts that lacked the necessary wholeness to bring about and nourish the process of mental-expansion and spiritual-deepening -- a process which has the capacity to being about the Anointing or Christing of the seekers Mind.
When Jesus said to the man: "sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee" (John 5:14), the question must be asked: In this man's present life, what was the Causal-Factor or Initiating-Factor that would cause "...a worse thing come unto thee"? Jesus also stated: That "every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof..." (Matt 12:36). Did Jesus really mean these words that presented a reality whereby each thought and word that a person speaks, will be evaluated and appropriately responded to? In the words of Jesus: "for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned” (Matt 12:37). Thus, the question: How will this justification or condemnation be measured and brought about?
In the same way that the nourishment of the cells of our body is controlled by an Osmosis system that only allows what the cells need to pass through, the mind of man functions in a similar manner. Food and nourishment exists on the mental and spiritual level, as well as the physical level. When the original Ebionite Nazirene followers of Jesus witnessed to the fact that Jesus taught them to fulfill the Law within themselves in order to achieve the Anointing (Messiah/Christ) of the mind, what Jesus taught his followers was how the Checksum Osmosis system that was built into the Natural Laws functions to bring about the necessary Wholeness of Mind and Spirit. In the same way that when the physical body is properly nourished it is able to maintain health, wellness and growth, the same is true of the Mind and the Spirit when they are properly nourished.
Thoughts can be likened to a formula -- balanced and whole mental-impressions bring about the expansion and deepening of the mind beyond organic male/female levels of consciousness -- while mental impressions that lack the necessary wholeness and balance, are simply expelled from the mind as waste in much the same manner as your body uses the food you eat that can nourish, and expels the waste. What the Gospel teachings portray as the "narrow gate", is the Center of the Mind which can be portrayed as the door to the Essence of Higher Consciousness. When impressions and thoughts that are whole and balanced enter into the "narrow gate" which is in the Center of the Mind, then, and only then, can growth and development take place beyond the organic consciousness of man and woman through the transformative process of mental-expansion and spiritual-deepening (see Spiritual Osmosis And The Narrow Gate http://lawofoctaves.nazirene.org/#Osmosis ).
When Paul wrote: “But the natural man does not receive the things of
the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them,
because they are spiritually discerned” (1 Cor 2:14) -- he was making
reference to the untransformed mind of organic man that has yet to receive the
Anointing/Christins (see Animal-Soul
https://ebionite.com/AnInconvenientTruth.htm#animal ). Paul used the term
"animal-soul" to portray the organic mind or lower-consciousness of man.
Why? Because the consciousness of organic man is of an earthly-animal vibratory
frequency. The Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary writes with respect to
the meaning of the word in the original Greek language: "natural
man—literally, 'a man of animal soul'" -- wherein the proper
interpretative-meaning of Paul's words with respect to the reality of what is
portrayed as the natural mind of man is then presented: "[Psuchikos,] the
animal man, one who lives in a natural state, and under the influence of his
animal passions; for [psuche] means the inferior and sensual part of man, in
opposition to the [nous] understanding, or [pneuma,] the spirit".
The consciousness of organic man is immature and undeveloped, because it's
development is grounded in the vibratory frequencies of the lower three earthly
kingdoms. Which is exactly why Paul profoundly stated to the very people who he
had personally taught the Gospel message: "And I, brethren, could not speak
to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ. I fed you
with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive
it, and even now you are still not able; for you are still carnal" (1 Cor
3:1-3). What Paul is stating to the people who he himself taught the principles
of the Gospel teachings, was that they were yet too mentally and spiritually
immature to understand the higher spiritual meaning of both the Gospel
teachings, as well as their own higher Soul-Reality and their relationship to
Creator-God. And for this very same reason of organic cognitive immaturity, is
why Jesus replied when he was asked why he would only speak to the multitude of
people in parables: "And with many such parables He spoke the word to them as
they were able to hear it. But without a parable He did not speak to them..."
(Mark 4:33-34). Why? Because the minds of the multitude of people had not yet
matured enough to comprehend the higher reality of the Soul and the mysteries of
the Kingdom of God. And thus, when Jesus was asked by his disciples as to why he
would only speak to the multitude of people in the enigma of parables, he
stated: “Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but
unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables: That seeing
they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand”
(Mark 4:11-12). Why? Why could the few understand what the multitude could not?
What forced Paul to speak to the people he taught the Gospel to as "babes in
Christ" -- saying: "...I fed you with milk and not with solid food; for
until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able;
for you are still carnal". And when Jesus was asked about the meaning of the
parable, he warned: Then Jesus said to them, “If you can’t understand the
meaning of this parable, how will you understand all the other parables?"
(see Mark 4:13). The parable that Jesus was referencing, was the parable of the
Sower And The Seed
http://sowerandtheseed.ebionite.com/ -- whereby Jesus stated
that if you fail to understand this parable, then you will not be able to
understand any of the Gospel teachings. Why? Because there is a process to
developing the mind -- enabling the mind to comprehend man's higher Soul and
Spiritual Realities that are incomprehensible to the organic immature
consciousness of mankind.
