Jesus said, "Search the Scriptures, for in them ye think ye have life ; and they are they which testify of Me . And ye will not come to Me that ye might have life
John 5:39

Two thousand years have passed since the time of My incarnate days. They were days of quiet waiting upon the Father in prayer and self-giving, in teaching and healing outreach, in community of leadership learning, in sadness and suffering, and rejoicing. The days were recognised after My death and resurrection as a time when the Father had visited His children through the loving obedience and ministry of His Son. Some have sought to ignore , others to put out the light which revealed the pain of truth as well as the joy of hope and fulfilment. Many have yielded to apathy and the joylessness of the partly-living. But some have allowed Me to be ossified in the Scriptures which bear witness to My life and ministry, even as the hostile leaders of the nation of the Jews in My incarnate life. They seek the living word in the context of a dead teacher and leader , not looking for my living Presence to inform the reading and inspire the understanding with the Spirit of Presence. All Scriptures are given for information and guide, and not all are for leading to the Summit of Presence . They are as a map, outlining and illumining the way. And I am at the side of each and every one in all faiths and at all stages, seeking to illuminate the way and to lead to embarking on it and new stages on the way. The way is in and through My living Presence and issues in deeper knowledge and understanding of that way in the service of the Father.
