ALL CLASS TIMES ARE AEST
August 29 – September 2 • 12:30pm-2:30pm
Facilitated by Rev. Phyllis Grace
What is the significance of the word “Christ?” The idea of “the Christ” has various meanings in various spiritual traditions and even more so in the context of individual belief systems. For some, “Jesus” and “Christ” are synonymous, yet even so interpretations of “Jesus Christ” vary for those believers. “Christ” as the Greek form of the Hebrew “Messiah” has an entirely different meaning for Judaism. In metaphysical teachings, “Christ” signifies an innate spiritual principle and/or potential in every person. The goal of this course it to assist you in engaging your own beliefs about “Jesus the Christ” and the Christ idea using the Bible as the primary text.
On completion of this course learners will be able to:
- Explain the example of Jesus the Christ as a means of putting on the Christ and beholding the Christ in others
- Apply the Christ in their own life experiences
- Embody and integrate Christ Consciousness
- Expand in spiritual awareness and consciousness
Required Texts:
- Bible, New Revised Standard Version – preferably a Study Bible
- The Revealing Word, Unity Books
