The Christ Concept

The “Christ Concept” as defined in Connectionism is the message that God is connected to and partnered with humanity to improve life through community.  This concept is the motivating force of the Connectionism movement.  We believe Jesus Christ is a message (or “word”) from God. The meaning of this "word" and the point of the message in Christ is the offer of permission, provision and purpose for the power that comes by believing we are one with God (the way Christ is one with God). 

The point is to fulfill the unique Christ call that comes with life at birth to perpetuate the message of connectedness which calls people into responsibility and accountability for our connection to God and each other. 

Understanding, acknowledgement and affirmative response to Christ as an invitation to live as a “relationship partner” with God empowers those who believe to explore that connection to supernaturally benefit the world while our own needs are met.  

The Christ Concept is a wake up call from God to all of humanity, calling us out of the death sleep that begun in the Garden of Eden.   The awakening is to the fact that we ARE connected to God and to one another.  Not Guilt, shame, hiding nor our personal cover ups change this fact but do perpetuate the denial of this truth. Mankind’s original (intended) perspective was one towards God and over creation as stewards commissioned by God.  But after the famous or infamous fruit eating the perspective became one of judgement and prejudgement: judgement of self and our neighbor(s) and prejudgement as to what God finds desirable. indeed, what “died” in the Garden was our identity... a people comfortable with the presence of our Heavenly Father, a race that took the responsibility of dominion seriously, beings that co-labored together with God to make his “good” creation better.  

And this all begins when you believe.  Questions is, "Do you believe?"  

Better question, "Do you choose to believe or do you simply awake to the fact that you are a believer or both?"

Belief, is it in you yet?
