Christ, the Revelation of Man

Bernadette Roberts

"A much overlooked revelation of Christ is that his own journey was a revelation of our own, or everyman's journey. Thus how it went for Christ is how it goes for all men. If we want to understand our own journey and what comes next, we need only to look to Christ. In this way our life parallels his own in that our first movement is coming to Christ's same union and oneness with God – God as He is in our self; and the second movement: the falling away of this union and coming upon God as He is in Himself – the Logos or divine Christ. Thus like Christ and with Christ we too must die, and not just physically, but psychologically and ontologically. For some this may seem like a hard saying, yet as I know it, this revelation or truth IS the resurrection."
