| has a very damaging effect on the soul. Jesus' saying, Become ye as little children has meanings | 82 THE CONQUEST OF DUALITY SYMBOLIZED IN THE LIFE AND DEATH OF JESUS |
| very spirit I have stated here. Many of Jesus' sayings and utterances were not recorded and passed | 82 THE CONQUEST OF DUALITY SYMBOLIZED IN THE LIFE AND DEATH OF JESUS |
| of, and wanted to see in, Jesus Christ. Jesus' last words on the cross expressed his doubt | 82 THE CONQUEST OF DUALITY SYMBOLIZED IN THE LIFE AND DEATH OF JESUS |
| transmitted to humanity. Since every single facet of Jesus' life and death has deep symbolic meaning for | 82 THE CONQUEST OF DUALITY SYMBOLIZED IN THE LIFE AND DEATH OF JESUS |
| the lack of truthfulness that lets others down. Jesus' truthfulness had not let anyone down, even though | 82 THE CONQUEST OF DUALITY SYMBOLIZED IN THE LIFE AND DEATH OF JESUS |
| and purity adopts the childlike attitude Jesus recommended. Jesus' advice to become as little children praises children's | 82 THE CONQUEST OF DUALITY SYMBOLIZED IN THE LIFE AND DEATH OF JESUS |
| children praises children's willingness to experience life intensely. Jesus' disciples have this quality; they too experience fully | 82 THE CONQUEST OF DUALITY SYMBOLIZED IN THE LIFE AND DEATH OF JESUS |
| not fully understood. Even those who understand that Jesus' resurrection and appearance indicate the continuation of spirit | 82 THE CONQUEST OF DUALITY SYMBOLIZED IN THE LIFE AND DEATH OF JESUS |
| such times; Jesus knew this better than anyone. Jesus' reappearance could not be more than theory for | 82 THE CONQUEST OF DUALITY SYMBOLIZED IN THE LIFE AND DEATH OF JESUS |
| not vice versa. And so it is with Jesus' life and death. It meant much more than | 82 THE CONQUEST OF DUALITY SYMBOLIZED IN THE LIFE AND DEATH OF JESUS |

| that, however, I would like to discuss the Jewish mass image. A mass image must always start | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| toward those who did not belong to the Jewish community and faith. Jews looked down on pagans | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| This tremendous gift of the incarnation among the Jewish people was also a test. All gifts are | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| to further perpetuate it and with it the Jewish karma. When any of you work on any | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| seem to bear out the original misconception. The Jewish mass image is: If my parents and forebears | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| denied. Now how does this image work? The Jewish misconception is that Jesus was a false prophet | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| to see that having sent Christ into a Jewish incarnation was God's great act of love for | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| was God's great act of love for His Jewish children. If Christians feel that they must deny | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| Jews........................17 | |
| a manifestation of God. Like the submitting Christian, Jews who deny Christ feel immensely threatened about their | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| under discussion. There was a time when the Jews were the only ones who worshipped the Creator | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| not belong to the Jewish community and faith. Jews looked down on pagans as inferior. They saw | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| the eternal now. On the collective level, both Jews and Christians have failed the test. This is | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| the courage to stand up for it. The Jews in power felt threatened -- unjustly so -- | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| it. As time went on, more pagans than Jews turned to Christ. The pagans' attitude to the | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| turned to Christ. The pagans' attitude to the Jews was to a large degree a response to | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| inferiority that was placed on them by the Jews who were supposed to carry God's love and | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| a vicious circle. In the consciousness of the Jews, the pagan and the Christian became one and | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| and the Christian became one and the same. Jews considered both inferior and hostile. The hostility existed | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| of context, as mere happenings, thereby seeing the Jews as victims, you rob yourselves of the vitality | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| they are the victimizers, out to annihilate the Jews. The more firmly this belief was held, the | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| enmity grew in the consciousness of many individual Jews, thereby creating a mass image. The defense against | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| inevitably created more antagonism and actual persecution of Jews. So the misconception created a defense which, in | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| today, at least on the surface, is for Jews to tolerate Christians, and vice versa. Underneath the | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| Jesus was never a dividing force. It was Jews and Christians who in their distortions, created this | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
| human limitation of vision and on misunderstanding. If Jews feel put aside because of Christ, they could | 247 THE MASS IMAGES OF JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY |
