Special Edition on Revelation Revealed topic 7 (personal religion)

JESUS PROCLAIMS THE RELIGION OF THE SPIRIT.  The experienced readers participating in this week’s discussion will zero in on Jesus’ first and second discourses of religion (sections 5 and 6 of Paper 155), instructions and exhortations that he directed to his apostles, but also implicitly to us. Therefore participants will analyze and comment on inspiring passages like those that follow:  "You have dared to protest against the grueling bondage of institutional religion and to reject the authority of the traditions of record which are now regarded as the word of God.  …  I have called upon you to be born again, to be born of the spirit. I have called you out of the darkness of authority and the lethargy of tradition into the transcendent light of the realization of the possibility of making for yourselves the greatest discovery possible for the human soul to make — the supernal experience of finding God for yourself, in yourself, and of yourself, and of doing all this as a fact in your own personal experience."  [The Midwayer Commission, 1730:6-1731:1 / 155:6.2-3]
