CHRIST ALL IN ALL

1 corinthians 15:22 " For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive", the case for the cosmic Christ can be made from several scriptures showing His lordship over all and the union with humanity, consider the statement of Paul " when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb and called me through His grace to REVEAL HIS SON IN ME that I may preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately confer with flesh and blood." Notice that Paul had the SON IN HIM all along when he was busy persecuting believers of the Way and this was the same message he gave to the Athenians in Acts 17:28 " For in Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of your own poets have said, 'for we are also His offspring". this proves the case for the cosmic Christ who is all in all. What does this mean for the gospel then? why is it that many people don't know their savior? Perhaps its because they believe God lives off in some far away place beyond the milky way and He has to be called down to intervene in human affairs when He is needed not knowing that this same God took on the form of humanity 2000years ago and became EMMANUEL God with us, so the whole crux of the gospel should be one of UNION and not SEPARATION, we believe in Christ because He is our savior not because He is our POTENTIAL SAVIOR if we believe in Him but because He is ALREADY OUR SAVIOR. this can be seen in John 1:4 " In Him was life, and the life was the light of men", verse 9 " that was the true light which gives light to every man coming to the world." when men know that their savior is not some distant deity living off in some far away galaxy but rather He is their very life and their existence is in Him and not without, then the whole business of the gospel will take on a new meaning as it will do away with the whole religious charade that the world has come to know as Christianity and men will manifest Christ in all His glory and fullness thus fulfilling prophecies like Jeremiah 31:34 and Hebrews 8:11 where God swears to Himself that EVERYONE shall know the Lord.
