| When the Bible speaks of two witnesses, there just | | | | God! After all, one of the most foundational themes of |
| may be a deeper message than what meets the eye. | | | | Christian redemption is the Word of God taking on |
| Could it be the "I" and the "Am" that are the two | | | | human flesh and walking among us. Why has most of |
| witnesses? The me that has flesh and the me that is | | | | the church limited this concept to only Jesus. Yes, He |
| Spirit which when brought together becomes the "I | | | | was the first, the the ultimate, but we are all the |
| am"? God is here and near, now! Think about it. It's the | | | | incarnation of God in human form. We need to get a |
| desire of all spiritual masters and particularly of Jesus, | | | | grip on what that means or we'll never see the |
| who became the Christ, that we ALL become ONE! | | | | Kingdom of God in any grandiose format. |
| Jesus repeats the "I am" identity (John 8:58) that God | | | | We have so many un-opened and unknown gifts! |
| related to Moses in Exodus 3:14. | | | | We don't have to go to God (somewhere- out there). |
| I am is the spiritual unity of ME & HE (though God is | | | | God is incarnate right here amongst us: found in every |
| not a gender). From there it's ME and my neighbors, | | | | person we meet to some degree. The I AM is the |
| and then ultimately ME and the whole religious world | | | | spiritual marriage of the Word becoming flesh in each |

| We must suspend our disbelief in order to believe. We | | | | we are original blessings. |
| must always be open to new discoveries and never | | | | We're not separated because of some biological act |

| Our spirit must be infused with God's Spirit. | | | | Spiritual unity or union is our destiny- partially now in the |
