Easter Sunday - He Is Risen!!

 Jacques E Menard

The Savior swallowed up death ...  for he put aside the world which is perishing. He transformed himself into an imperishable Aeon and raised himself up, having swallowed the visible by the invisible, and he gave us the way of our immortality. Then ...  we suffered with him and arose with him, and we went to heaven with him. Now if we are manifest in this world wearing him, we are that one's light beams, and we are embraced by him until our setting, that is to say, our death in this life. 

The world is an illusion, not the resurrection. Everything is prone to change, but the resurrection does not change; it is the truth which stands firm. It is the revelation of what is, and the transformation of things, and a transition into newness.

Flee from the divisions and the fetters and already you have the resurrection. Why not consider yourself as risen and already brought to this? It is fitting for each one to practice in a number of ways and he shall be released from this element that he may not fall into error but shall himself receive again what first was.
