So they tell me that once again we have come to “Fat Tuesday!” Since I don’t like “punchkeys”, how do you spell the Polish word anyway, and I don’t like fat, at least on me, why would I eat what would add fat? The bottom line for me is “what’s really the point” in the religious acrobatics that the church goes through each and every year–Fat Tuesday, Ash Wednesday, Maundy Thursday, and on and on they go. Then they ask, [...]

Were you able today, to see through any errors or mistakes you may have made? What did you see? To err is to be human. To be human is actually the experience of being Divine in a learning experience on the planet. To learn and grow from having made mistakes is something to celebrate. The roots of learning, growing, transforming our choices, becoming more of an expression of Divinity day by day, and allowing our Light to shine more brightly [...]

This posting is the beginning of several on the Aramaic Jesus’ concept of Light and Shadow. He had much to say about this–most of which has been distorted by Christian theology. We must always be aware that the English bible is many times a distortion of what Jesus said in Aramaic. For example: Luke 11:34-36 reveals to us that our Divinity is our most important focus. “When your eye (consciousness) is focused on your Divine Light, then your whole body [...]

What does it mean to be human? Who coined that word and who has defined it? Why that? The time has come in “human” history to overcome the erroneous idea of Dualism. We are not separate from an angry male “God” somewhere up in the sky. It is from this perspective that I write about The Divine within us! If an atheist were to tell me there is no “God,” I would both agree and disagree. Indeed, I would agree [...]

Hi everyone, my website was down for a couple of days. We changed hosts and are up and running. Today, I’m wondering how your Divinity is shining in the world. Every creative thought and creative expression is your Divinity shining through. Sometimes we take that for granted and don’t even consider the Source of Creativity. That Source is YOU and the Divine Self that you are. All Is One! There is nothing quite like our creativity that brings beauty into [...]
Our Shadow is where our dreams live! It is where we have repressed our Divinity and all that we’ve come here to be. No one else can do what you’ve agreed to come to the planet and bring forth. Is the Shadow also where our dreams are reviewed before we choose to celebrate all that will bring them forth? The Shadow is at times what follows along behind us and scares the “hell” out of us! It is also your [...]

How has your Divinity showed up today? Each time we express love to anyone in any way, that is our Divine Self showing up. Each word of kindness, each act of empathy, each time we encourage someone, we are revealing our Divine Self. The Divine is the Source of Love and we are IT!! We no longer have to live small. We no longer have to live with doubt. We no longer have to be tormented with not being good [...]

We’ve come to the planet to learn, to experience, to grow, and to remember. Why have you taken birth? Do you remember? Beyond all the pain, beyond all suffering, beyond all forgetting, we are here. The Aramaic Jesus said: “When you understand that the Greater I AM is within you, the smaller I am, you are on the right path to remembering. You are moving in the right direction on that path, and you will know the strength to walk [...]

As a former minister, Jim Stacey uncovers how Christianity has perverted the message of Jesus in Jesus was not a Christian. Instead of practicing love for our neighbors, love for enemies, turning the other cheek, the kingdom within, and birthing a new self that Jesus said were paramount for one who claims to follow him, Christians have blindly followed church rules and regulations. Stacey shows just how much has been lost, including a recognition of the feminine face of God. Belief held no power for Jesus, but practicing his message was all that mattered. Christianity has lost the Jesus they claim to follow, but in Jesus was not a Christian, Stacey brings back Jesus and his real message. Provocative and inspirational, Jesus was not a Christian points the way to a deeper spiritual practice of Jesus' words, instead of just more religion.
