There is often confusion about Christ and God. You should know that they are not external entities, rather "embedded" in us.
We share the identity of Christ. God is in us. God, or the Lord, is no more than our imagination. Our imagination is God. God became man, and man realized he is God.
God is not something that you can see. You can look at a tree and say "It's just a tree", but there is a magical presence about the tree that is one with God. You can look at a human the same exact way.
We have a body and a face, but we are much more than these labels.

From a Christian perspective I view Jesus as the man and Christ as the evolved state of consciousness which he acquired. But that is just my opinion.
From a more metaphysical perspective; GOD is not an entity, God is not a “thing,” a thing is something which has borders and boundaries; to me GOD is infinite; without edges, borders and boundaries.
God is nothing and everything, in my point of view. God is nothing because nothing literally means no-thing, and everything refers to absolutely everything.
We are created in God’s image and likeness, in that all of creation is created in the image, or projected as a reflection, of divine light, just as an image is projected onto a screen by light. The likeness of God in its’ un-manifested purity is within us. Thus we are created in the image and likeness of God.
I view everything as that which I call God; God is the only presence which exists and it exists everywhere. The darkness is nothing more than the shadow of the light. We can choose to live in the shadow or we can choose to live in the light. I do not believe in a devil but if there is a devil it works for God. IMHO.
