Excerpt from The Herald of the Cross, Vol. 1: October, 1905 Celestial Being who took possession of Him. He was not the Christ; but He became as the Christ during His life. He was not without defects in His character, for He inherited all the parental weaknesses; yet these He overcame, and united Himself to the Divine, so that He was filled with Divine Grace and became the honoured vehicle for the manifestation of the Celestial. For all Christhood has hitherto been confined to the Celestial Spheres. No Planetary soul has ever attained the full Christhood, though some have come near it. But Jesus attained it in its fullness through receiving into Himself the Divine Spirit who was represented in the Celestial who manifested the Christhood. For the Christhood did not mean that the Christ was Divine, but that the Celestial who revealed it was the vehicle of the Divine. So that Jesus became the vehicle of the Christ who was in turn the vehicle of the Divine; and thus the affirmation that Jesus had two distinct natures is only true in appearance and not in fact. For He was a human soul who attained the status of the Christhood so that He could become the medium of that Christhood to the world and in this way may it be said of Him that He was two persons in one nature. F or, as Jesus, He was a human soul but'as the Christ He was a Celestial Spirit. And together these constituted a true human Christhood. For we must never forget that the human soul Jesus did attain to the status of Christhood, and thus became a perfect vehicle for the manifestation through the hfnnan life of a Christhood. N or did He ever join Himself to any earthly institutions in order that He might be the more free to manifest that Christhood. For no religious institutions in the history of this Planet have ever produced a Christhood they have professedly aimed at it, but have never had faith in its possibility, and so could not culture the soul till it reached the Christhood status through functioning on the spiritual plane. Indeed, these institutions in all ages have been a stumbling-block to the spiritual evolution of the soul towards Christhood.
