Hi,
I totally agree.. In my own words I would say there is only Christ-nature.. the very ground of being.
The same ground of being the Buddhist call Buddha-nature.
So one cannot possibly be this or that, because there is only this.

He's right. We are all God's children but a "son of God" is what Jesus was. It's just a different term to denote one of God's divine offspring which humans are not, not until we ascend anyway.

Hi,
To me Jesus simply pointed to the true nature of our being.
In my view our true nature has no distinctions, it's not my nature, your nature or Jesus' nature.
Simply the undivided ground of being which man has called God.
As such it is funny to me to think that one could be more directly divine than another since there are no two things in reality.

Agreed every one is a Divine Soul and a potential Christ.

Jesus was a teacher/Mystic but he wasn't and isn't the only one. What about Thoth, Osiris, Plato, Philo, Socrates, Mohammed, Buddha, Abraham, Moses, Plutarch, among others - and the modern teachers/mystics like Edgar Cayce, Mary Baker Eddy, Mme Blavatsky, Rod Steiner, Schwedenborg, Anna Kingsford, Alice Bailey, Brother Mandus, John Todd Ferrier, Joel Goldsmith, Henry Thomas Hamblin, to name but a few - and then there are those beyond the veil/on the other side, collective consciousnesses that teach us like White Eagle, Silver Birch, Chan, Michael, Seth etc.
These are just a few of our teachers on both sides. They were, and are, all great teachers/mystics, Revealers of Divine Wisdom - Revealers of the Mysteries of God/Source/Creator and the Cosmos and Universe.

Blessings

Hi There this isn't a question about mystics, teachers, or even revealers. It's a question about sons of God posted in the Christianity forum.

That's where you're wrong. There is actually separation between things that are God and things that aren't god. God is everywhere but he is not everything.

Then how do you explain the concept that God has Unconditional Love for All Things. In my view, God is everything. A true example of Self Love.

Hi,
What would you say is God against that which is not God & what separates them?
To me it's a very strange notion.. but then again I don't believe in God.

What are your thoughts?

Very insightful! I've never looked at it this way. But I can see where you get that. I remember I was reading the New Testament with Jesus and he was talking about who the Sons of God are. From what he said, it seems to fit with what you said.

But then it could also be that the Sons of God are the Sons of God because we all descended from Adam (which means man) who was created by God.
