If you are a follower of Jesus, you have a glorious hope. You expect, someday, to be like Jesus - to be the loving, joyful, peaceful person you see in him. In the meantime, along with millions who hold this hope, you live with feelings of inadequacy, if not defeat, in the present. What, then, of Jesus' promise that we can experience a magnificent life here and now? What about the "peace that passes understanding"and "joy unspeakable" he promised us in our everyday lives? "Your Forgotten Self" asserts that if you see Jesus as different from yourself, you have no hope of enjoying the fulfilling life he lived. It argues that, instead of being fundamentally different from us, Jesus was the embodiment of the essence of our humanity. In the view of Jesus' early followers, to be a believer is to see yourself as Jesus saw himself. To have faith is to become aware that you have already been"raised up" with Christ into the heavens - a state of divine consciousness - and are at this moment blessed with "every spiritual blessing" the kingdom of "Your Forgotten Self" invites you to see yourself with new eyes. When this happens, the power of the Christ floods into your everyday circumstances.You experience life as Jesus experienced it. You begin to live as Jesus in the present moment.
