There is some question about the implications of this Buddhist/Hindu
teaching to the theory of prophecy.
Do we become unenlightened once we say we are? And, does this
mean we aren't to say prophesy like Jesus and those who preceded and
followed him did?
Why is the Gospel being able to be spoken by ys even today?
The answer is hidden in Jesus' teachings in the Gospel of John.
By studying and meditating on them and taking them to be our own
we can understand them.
"I AM the Light of the World and whosoever follows me shall have
the Light of Eternal Life (that is be saved and be able to know
how to speak the words that I do).
Does this mean that, only, anyone (like us) can be the Truth like
Jesus?
The answer is not a simple Truth: Yes or No, but a more wondelful Truth
that is both Yes and No.
Jesus Christ was the Light of the World because
He said so.But, He was enlightened enough to say so and know it. Because
of the Words that His Father had already spoken.
