Summary

The article discusses the author's perspective that salvation and enlightenment come from within, challenging the traditional Christian belief in a savior, and advocates for personal responsibility and empowerment through self-awareness and love.

Abstract

The author, Ari Love, articulates a viewpoint that diverges from traditional Christian eschatology, asserting that Jesus' purpose was to serve as an example of self-realization and inner transformation rather than as a savior who will rescue humanity. Love emphasizes that Jesus' message was about self-awareness and the inherent potential within each individual to transcend suffering and find the light within. The article criticizes organized religion for distorting Jesus' teachings into a control mechanism based on fear and judgment, rather than fostering love and healing. It encourages readers to break free from dogmatic conditioning, recognize their own divine nature, and understand that their thoughts and collective consciousness shape their reality. The author also touches on the idea that humanity's focus should shift towards unity and co-creation of a better world, moving beyond divisions of race, religion, and gender.

Jesus Isn’t Coming To Save Us…

…save yourself…

I spoke to a dear family member, and they said, “Things are bad in this world. I can’t wait for Jesus to return and rapture me away from this place!” My loves, Jesus isn’t coming to rescue us because he’s already returned. Indeed, Christ is here, and the rapture is already happening. I must tell you the truth; no one is coming to save us.

Jesus was a human (just like you and me) who incarnated to Earth with a powerful message. He was before his time, so his messages were not well received. Jesus’ primary purpose was to be the example. He wanted humanity to know we could break free from this purgatory by embracing the light within. Did you know the Bible mentions the word light more than 200 times?

Jesus spoke again to the people; he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life.” (John 8:12) ** It is important to note that in the Bible, light means awareness.

Jesus never wanted anyone’s worship, nor did he want a religion created in his honor. Jesus was not religious in the least! He opposed it! His powerful message of awareness was twisted, exploited, and used to control the masses. If he stood before us, he would say, “I can not save you; save yourself.” He would plead with us to find our own way through love, healing, and forgiveness.

In this life experience, the only person who can save you is yourself. No savior is coming down to rescue us from our misery. There is no spontaneous event that will take Christians away in the clouds. The sooner we comprehend this, the better. There is nothing wrong with seeking solace through religion, but there is something very wrong with thinking someone is going to save us from ourselves.

It has taken many years to heal from religious trauma and indoctrination. I spent most of my life afraid of God and where I would go after death. Imagine a small child believing an all-powerful God would sentence her to eternal flames for not being perfect. As an adult, the fear grew, and I began to hate God. The Sunday services and relentless bible studies didn’t bring me closer to God, salvation, or purpose; it drove me away.

Christianity teaches the importance of love, yet there are Christians who oppose those who have different beliefs. There wasn’t a Sunday service when the pastor didn’t mention that homosexuality was an abomination and Muslims were going to hell. Instead of sermons of love and healing, we were conditioned through messages of hate and fear. Standing at the pulpit, he roared, “Repent! Repent! If you don’t repent right now — you will spend eternity in hell fire. Jesus is the only way to heaven! Not Allah, not Buddha, Jesus!” As he said this, everyone would shout for Jesus and scream, “Amen! Jesus is the only way to heaven!”

Every Sunday, the same people would rush to the altar to repent of the sins they committed the previous week. These were the repeat repenters. If they sinned on Saturday night, they asked Jesus to reenter their lives on Sunday morning. I would observe the group as they wept in shame for their “sins” against God. Some repented for fornication, and others for smoking pot or enjoying a bottle of wine.

My heart broke seeing how much they struggled to be Christ-like. When we try to be perfect, it only creates more suffering. Jesus wasn’t a flawless human, as the creators of Christianity claim, but he was perfect for his mission. He was a bold, determined rebel who courageously sacrificed his life for the greater good. Jesus left us a road map and wanted us to use it to find the light, heal ourselves, and break free from the darkness that plagues the Earth.

For me, two consenting adults having sex, smoking a joint, or drinking a little wine didn’t seem worthy of eternal punishment. The more I listened and observed, the more I realized that 90% of what we were told was untrue. Most of the writings in the Bible aren’t presented to help us break free through awareness; they are merely words of power-thirsty men who came before us.

From that moment onward, I began to think for myself. The information presented in churches isn’t the exact teachings of Christ; it’s a hoax. Indeed, these are bold statements, but they are crucial as we are in the thick of the spiritual ascension. I know what it’s like to be consumed by religious dogma and will not sit on critical information for fear of being disagreeable. Yes, this is an individual journey, but my heart will always beat for humanity.

The Matrix System of Organized Religion is detrimental because it conditions humans to look outside themselves for salvation. My loves, YOU ARE THE GOD of your life experience. There is no dictator like God on the throne or savior who is about to split the sky and rescue us from our sufferings. Everything happening in our life story is to help us align with our purpose and transform into the best version of ourselves. We do this by transmuting darkness into light and pain into power. Never give up, have faith, and understand that the darkness is where we learn the most valuable lessons.

Look around and observe the trees, flowers, and the building across the street. These things exist because of the power of the human mind. Humans are creators because we are made in the image of God. We must understand our thoughts manifest our reality. If there is chaos, we create it by collectively tuning into the same frequency.

Here is an example.

Has anyone noticed that more movies are about the end of the world? The more we collectively consume this content, the greater the chance we manifest everything shown to us. We are unintentionally creating chaos because we are allowing these storylines to become our thoughts, and our thoughts manifest our reality. The goal is to have the majority tune into a particular thought (it’s like tuning in to a radio frequency). Once the majority has done this, they collectively manifest what they’ve allowed to enter their subconscious.

But the good news is that we can also manifest peace, love, and togetherness. My loves, this is the truth. Together, there is nothing we can’t accomplish. Race, religion, sexual orientation, gender, or socioeconomic status do not matter. This divisiveness has to end so that we can align and tell a new story. Essentially, we must collectively tune into the same frequency. When this happens, we create a new reality, the New Earth. All humans are here on Earth to learn to master ourselves. If we peel back our skin, we appear the same — blood, bones, muscles, and tendons. We vary because we are different expressions of The Supreme Creator. No man is better or worse than another. We have the same mission — awaken, heal, and find the light within the darkness. Division, hate, and fear are a part of the old storyline; let’s create a new one. Love, Ari.
