Every once in awhile I will read something that makes the Spirit of Christ jump with confirmation within me. I dare to think of the mystery and truth found in these verses (below) from the obscure and discounted book known as the Gospel of Thomas. I am not much of a reader or promoter of the extra books outside the accepted "Cannon" but on rare occasion I stumble across a concept that moves my soul and such is this. I pray you have been given the heart to meditate upon this jewel.
18) The disciples said to Jesus, "Tell us how our end will be." Jesus said, "Have you discovered, then, the beginning, that you look for the end? For where the beginning is, there will the end be. Blessed is he who will take his place in the beginning; he will know the end and will not experience death." ..........
22) ...........Jesus said to them, "When you make the two one, and when you make the inside like the outside and the outside like the inside"
Long have I proclaimed the the truth of the "Kingdom within" is of the greatest import. Do you believe Christ will appear in His fullnes when the "inside is like the outside and the outside is like the inside" ?
I believe so, but this is only the end of ourselves within the "realm of time and space" which bound up this world. This is but "one wheel within many other wheels" (Ezekiel's wheels). I truly believe the realms of God and His Agape Love are infinitesimal in number as are His Kingdom's without end.
Oh, the wonder of it all!
