Jesus- Not of This World

Jesus- NOT OF THIS WORLD. 

Jesus an alien?  Such a strange thing to say isn't it? But by His own admission, Jesus is not of this world and we call any being not of our world an alien, yes?  

Our own Creator is NOT of this world.

He MADE this world being OUTSIDE of this world. He didn't create what He existed upon.  He, being NOT of this world, made this world exist, He spoke this world into existence. Our Creator spoke US into existence. Then our Creator agreed with His Co-Creator that IF mankind chose to disobey their single command to not eat of a single tree that they would OFFER to save those who would choose to obey their commands and all their commands would be grounded in LOVE.  However, the price to save them would be high. One of them would need to prove that their love IS love and is true, and is right!  To do this- one of them would take on FLESH, human flesh, flesh of a creature they created and in doing this they would have to leave their God powers behind and TOTALLY depend upon the powers of the God that would remain flesh-less, the God that would remain OUT of this world. The God in flesh would prove that a human being could depend upon a God not of, and out of this world for ALL things. 

Our Savior- Jesus Christ- the declared SON of God declared the FATHER, is the co-Creator who became flesh and divested Himself of all power.  He walked this earth in flesh knowing what He had been, knowing He was NOT of this world. He walked this earth and regained all the knowledge of His Father, God in Heaven. He lived His life consistent with a human being dependent upon His Creator. His human flesh made Him susceptible to all the same temptations as EVERY other created human being.  A part of Him wasn't CREATED- the part of Him that made Him - God, Co-Creator, the begotten Son. Yet that part had agreed to give up His God power. To have GOD even in our created flesh lower Himself in that way yet retain all His God-power, would mean very little, practically nothing. It would not prove that a human being is capable of obedience. 

Yes,  God in human flesh with the knowledge of His own God-hood, knew He could not use any of His God-power or He would forfeit everything He longed for, human begins knowing the love of their Creator.  Yes, they could have destroyed all HUMANS, but they didn't want to! Their nature of LOVE prevented them from haphazardly creating humans only to kill them off entirely when these beings of free will chose to disobey, when they chose self over God.

Joh 8:23  And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.

We are from beneath- we are NOT gods of any sort! Jesus is from above- NOT of this world, but He took on FLESH and walked this world, taught in this world, lived in this world as a human being, died in this world, was resurrected in this world, and returned to HIS WORLD to prepare for us who choose to believe in HIM and His world, His love, His ways, His truth, His life,  so we could go to HIS WORLD and live with HIM for a thousand years, and then He would return to this earth with us.

By the GRACE and MERCY, through the LOVE of our Father God, our Savior God, our Holy Spirit God, may we be taken by HIM to live with HIM forever and ever, and ever!

In HIS name, In HIS love now and forever.

AMEN.
