Christ Presence

Time is not lineal
The back of memory
     past relived
     future imagined -- 
Time is mind, and mind
Has its own compass and
Essence Navigator.

Love is a perfect example
When perfected, all directions
At all times,

Ever present in the mind and
Heart of man
His Manifest Christ -- 

Time is Spirit

And spirit is timeless….

Thank you, Richard; Christ definitely let us know that, in His love for His disciples and His willingness to die on the cross for all of us. Lighting a path to eternal life. Merry Christmas my friend. Blessings to you and yours.

This is a mystery we can never understand. At this moment in time, Jesus is also being born and also dying on the cross for our sins. Time is not stagnant.

Indeed. Not stagnant. Alive with motion, back and forth oscillation.... Spirit~ feelings (essence-nature) however, never change. Pure love is always pure love. Pure hate is always pure hate. What makes us truly alive never changes. Degrees of experience does not change basic nature. The nature of our senses are always the same...only our perceptions change. According to various inclinations of the will. Our reactions our attitudes. And none of these can be measured in a petri-dish, in a laboratory setting under a plane-microscope. True life...eternal life...feelings are timeless, immortal. Only superficial presence appears to change.

Bodies, so called physical substance we perceive changing...but do they really, or just migrate with us yet to follow the deeper spiritual trail. Basic atoms reconstituting in infinite imagined ways. Not the brain I am speaking of, but separate the mind from the body...and you have immortality. If this is not possible...then everything we believe of heaven and hell are mere mental fallacies.
