The Logos Center Tenet 3

We affirm that the Spirit of Christ is cosmic and universal. We affirm that Jesus of Nazareth is our elder brother, and is a soul, a child of God, like ourselves. Yet, He chose to measure up to the fullness of the law of love. In so doing he received the power to overcome death, and to experience the resurrection of his body. As a result of this, He now gives us the pattern and the power to become like him, perfect in love. He gives us the promise of his abiding presence to enable us to measure up, as he did. The spiritual goal of being incarnate in the earth is to become like him, in love. In the same manner, all of us may come to know that we are the true children of the One God. It is most important to keep in mind that the Spirit of God can and does manifest fully through souls such as Jesus and ourselves. Also, it is not so important that we use a particular word in a statement of faith as it is that we live in the spirit of selfless love. In our emphasis on the work of Jesus, we do not wish to detract from the work of any other great soul. It is simply that we choose to align our work and spirit with his.
