Humanity is Divinity

There is a small struggle that people have with deciding if we are human or divine. With Jesus, some think that he has to be one or the other; either a divine being or a human being. There is also the belief that to be divine we need to mortify our physical body and refuse to eat. There is also the belief that sex is wrong - that's why traditional Christian priests cannot marry. The church also didn't accept some of the gospels that hinted that Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene. Why can't we be divine and still be human?

The divine can be easily applicable to our lives. We are truly divine, and it is only the ego that makes ridiculous demands. Everything of the ego is not truly human, but ignorance and corruption of our natural divinity. We can live without it and still be married and have children. We do not have to abuse the body and refuse to eat; we can have a healthy diet. We can be a householder with a profession, and at the same time express divine love to all, enjoy the bliss of our core being, praying, forgiving, and healing incessantly.

For the people who don't believe in their own divinity, then they will live that way. If they laugh at the ideas like immortality, "miracles," and freedom from all limitations, they will never encounter any of that. Yes, they will be right - we are not divine. They will be completely unaware of the subtle, hidden divinity because of the fears, grievances, and doubts of their ego.

For those who have seen or heard about their true, unlimited state of being, don't deny it. You will go far enough to experience it yourself as long as you unfold your unconditional, uniting love constantly. Yes, you will be right - we are undoubtedly divine. You will incorporate that freedom into your life and still live normally and simply.

Still, either your prayer for limitation will be fulfilled, or your prayer for illumination will be answered. Are we divine human beings, or are we not?
