Romans 8:17 Joint-heirs with Christ

.
ascended masters gathered
16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: 17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. -Romans 8:17 Bible, King James Version


We can all become joint-heirs with Christ indicating that we all have the potential to become Christs just like Jesus if we are willing to follow the Teachings of the Ascended Masters Who have all become Christs. The word Christ is an official title which means, The Master of Love. When we say "Jesus, the Christ" we refer to the man and to his office.   



The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ

Transcribed From the Book of God’s Remembrances, Known as the Akashic Records

by Levi H. Dowling (1844-1911)

CHAPTER 68.


1The news soon spread abroad that Jesus, king of Israel, had come to Bethany, and all the people of the town came forth to greet the king.

2And Jesus, standing in the midst of them, exclaimed, Behold, indeed, the king has come, but Jesus is not king.

3The kingdom truly is at hand; but men can see it not with carnal eyes; they cannot see the king upon the throne.
4This is the kingdom of the soul; its throne is not an earthly throne; its king is not a man...
11Men call me Christ, and God has recognized the name; but Christ is not a man. The Christ is univer­sal love, and Love is king.
12This Jesus is but man who has been fitted by temptations over­come, by trials multiform, to be the temple through which Christ can manifest to men.
13Then hear, you men of Israel, hear! Look not upon the flesh; it is not king. Look to the Christ within, who shall be formed in every one of you, as he is formed in me.
14When you have purified your hearts by faith, the king will enter in, and you will see his face.
15And then the people asked, What must we do that we may make our bodies fit abiding places for the king?
16And Jesus said, Whatever tends to purity in thought, and word, and deed will cleanse the temple of the flesh.
 

CHAPTER 79.

 John explains to the multitude the mis­sion of Jesus.

7I have performed the work that I was sent to do; the work of Jesus just begins.
8Then turning to the multi­tudes he said, Christ is the king of righteousness; Christ is the love of God; yea, he is God; one of the holy persons of the Triune God.
9Christ lives in every heart of purity.
10Now, Jesus who is preaching at the Jordan ford, has been sub­jected to the hardest tests of human life, and he has conquered all the ap­petites and passions of the carnal man.
11And by the highest court of heaven, has been declared a man of such superior purity and holiness that he can demonstrate the pres­ence of the Christ on earth.
12Lo, love divine, which is the Christ, abides in him, and he is pat­tern for the race.
13And every man can see in him what every man will be when he has conquered all the passions of the selfish self.
14In water I have washed the bodies of the people who have turned from sin, symbolic of the cleansing of the soul;
15But Jesus bathes forever in the living waters of the Holy Breath.
16And Jesus comes to bring the savior of the world to men; Love is the savior of the world.
17And all who put their trust in Christ, and follow Jesus as a pat­tern and a guide, have everlasting life.
18But they who do not trust the Christ, and will not purify their hearts so that the Christ can dwell within, can never enter life.

CHAPTER 128.

16...Jesus told the twelve about the inner light that cannot fail;
17About the kingdom of the Christ within the soul...

CHAPTER 129.

6Where is your profit if you gain the world and lose your soul? What would you take in payment for your soul?
7If you would find the spirit life, the life of man in God, then you must walk a narrow way and enter through a narrow gate.
8The way is Christ, the gate is Christ, and you must come up by the way of Christ. No man comes unto God but by the Christ.
