Jesus On Manifestation: His Own Words.

Sometimes people tell me that manifestation is not a Christian doctrine. If by Christianity they mean the religion created by men, which aims to franchise the teachings of Jesus into a control system, I would have to agree. If they mean that the person named Yeshua (whom the church renamed Jesus) didn’t teach the concepts of manifestation, I would strongly disagree.

Note: To avoid confusion, all references to Jesus will hereafter be by his actual name Yeshua.

The difficulty is that many people who identify as Christians make no separation between the doctrines of the man-made religion. They do not distinguish these from the actual teachings of Yeshua. Most of them have been taught that Yeshua founded Christianity. They are not aware of the actual history of the church. This is not to marginalize their devotion. Without the efforts of Churchianity, most people would not have heard of Yeshua. Without its many denominations, they would not know about his teachings . Each denomination interprets the teachings of Yeshua somewhat differently. From these interpretations they derive their doctrines and rituals.

This should be ample evidence that Christianity is an interpretation of the intentions and teachings of Yeshua. It is made by imperfect people who have their own perspectives and agendas. My recommendation to any sincere follower of Yeshua is to get a New Testament. Study his life and actual teachings as reported in the Gospels. Set aside the doctrines of men and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal to you the truth he intended to communicate and demonstrate. Try it with this bit right here:

“A time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.” – John 4: 23, 24

However, this post is not an indictment of Christianity. Almost everyone involved in any religion has subjugated themselves to a man-made institution with doctrines designed to control behavior. They believe that by behaving in the ways they are taught they will be seen as good and righteous. Being critical of religious dogma will get you branded as a heretic. The superstitious believe this is to be sentenced to everlasting punishment in a fiery hell. This is no surprise, control systems all use fear to motivate desired actions from their constituents.

Yeshua, on the other hand, didn’t demand blind devotion (under fear of punishment) to dogma before extending grace. His teachings were all about belief and faith which are the very foundation stones of Manifestation. You can also see that he was teaching them to think differently about the nature of God. He taught them to think differently about failure and shortcomings. He also taught them to view disease and deprivation differently. This correction of thought shifts one from a negative, defeatist frame of reference. It moves us to a positive, empowered one. Today, we refer to this as raising one’s existential vibration and frequency. But why am I still talking? Hear for yourself the worlds of Yeshua on Faith (positive belief):

“Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” -Matthew 17: 20

Then he touched their eyes and said, “According to your faith let it be done to you”; and their sight was restored. -Matthew 9: 29,30

He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering.” -Mark 5:34

Yeshua said to him, “Receive your sight; your faith has healed you.” Immediately he received his sight and followed Yeshua, praising God. – Luke 18: 42,43

Note how each time Yeshua tells those who were healed that it was their positive belief that manifested their healing. Hear now the inspiring words he speaks concerning the generous nature of the Infinite Father (Source) and why worry (negative belief) is counterproductive:

“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?”

“And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith?”

Here Yeshua tells us that all who desire to follow his example can manifest the same revisions to reality (miracles) that he did. Actually, he says they will accomplish even greater things!

“Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father (Source).” -John 14: 12

It’s important to understand that Yeshua was dealing with people indoctrinated into a very restrictive control system. This system presented their God as primarily concerned with obedience to an elaborate legal code. If a person was stricken with a disease or misfortune, it was seen as punishment for their infractions. Alternatively, it could be for infractions their parents had committed. Yeshua’s presentation of God as a loving Father was revolutionary and liberating. He was renewing their minds to a state of child-like positivity.

The Father-God he presented was concerned with intention and motivation of the heart. He valued this more than blind obedience to the letter of the law. With this conceptual shift he invalidated the control systems of religion. With his proclamation that we are all Sons and Daughters of God, he restored our sovereignty. He eliminated the need for middle-men priests. With his teachings about the power of positive belief, he taught us how to revise our reality. He guided us in manifesting positive change in our world.

We must conclude that if Yeshua taught the principals and concepts that are the foundation for manifestation and reality revision, then he also practiced them. This was the liberating power which he was trying to give to his disciples. He had a strong and clear connection to the pure energy of Source (the Holy Spirit). He knew with certainty that Father-God (Source) was Love. Therefore if God’s will was done on Earth as it is in Heaven, all good and beneficial things would manifest. This certain belief (faith) was the key he used to perform miracle manifestations that revised the reality of those he encountered.
