self is god as jesus said. the image manifested. god doesn't begin to be nor ceases to be. god is always being. the beloved is the existing one.
jacob wasn't christian; even if you are. this is the change in the twinkling of an eye. and every eye shall see him. to see is to understand.
god is not something in another place. the kingdom of god comes from within
be silent/still and know god, i will be exalted among the other as self, i will be glorified in the body of self.
this is your come to Jesus moment, the 2nd coming. behold I AM with you always, even unto the end of the age.
