'... one of the first and only, in 1800 years.'
Am I making an announcement? Am I speaking of some 'new' calling for me? No.
I'm sharing the 'name/ for what I've been called to these last 12 years or so, a 'name' that only in recent days is coming to me.
I've for years been clear that Jesus didn't want followers. Jesus wanted Joiners, of Action, of Love, to come alongside Him, and eventually, as they Learned, gained Mastery, and Strength, went on ahead of him, as any and every great Teacher would want.
As so often is true with me, this little 'gift' of my Heart, my supra-conscious, upon receiving it, my reaction is like, duh! That's what you've been attempting, and must continue to attempt. But it is increased clarity of some magnitude to have the 'name.'
What changes does this hold for me. Nothing, fundamentally, I suspect, except it re-enforces, and somewhat explains this thrust I've felt and surrendered to in recent days to assemble my video logs into a text based book. But coming alonside that is a curious, unexpected, somewhat welcome, profoundly daunting notion that I am to explicitly try to pick up where Jesus left off in spreading the Gospel of Love, Brotherhood, Insane Humanity.
But Start! There are millions of 'chruches,' huge denominations, etc, etc, etc. Yes, and they are all, in Jesus name, teaching the Opposite of what He died to teach us, to Give us - Brotherhood, Love, Insane Humanity - period, end of discussion, end of conversation, nothing more, nothing less, nothing else.
Have I been given a glimmering of hope that I'll have an impact? Zero, zilch, none - Fool's errand.
But if the Calling continues, I'm in.
