The Christ in faith.
I'm only have way through this scripture and it has inspired my life. I call it scripture because the words speak much faith and knowledge. I grew up Christian in the Mennonite denomination and didn't really enjoy church and didn't feel the faith was really being shown. It seemed 2 sided and I thought "there is more than being spoken of". I tried to descover thyself with no help and I must say it is very hard if not impossible for me to do. I came upon this scripture one day when I had enough of my life and couldn't take the pain anymore. I broke down and gave up and asked "Jesus" for help. A spirit spoke to me and this is where it lead me. "Study Jesus the Christ teachings" it said so this scripture is the beginning of my journey to study myself and understand faith. I recommend this to anybody with an open mind and looking for clerification on there own spiritual journey to know thyself. It has many parables and many stories correlate with the KJV bible. A lot of information is never spoken in the bible that I know of. Levi writes about Jesus the Christs early years growing up. The language is easy to read and understand for all ages. Thanks.

On my third reading...
I love this book. I have read it twice before and now again. It fills in the lost years, so to speak, that are left out of the Bible. It gives background as to Jesus and the Essene community and his years of study in India, Greece, and Turkey. This book is full of wisdom and practicality. I recommend it to anyone who wants to know more about the education and journey of Jesus.

Questionable?
From the beginning, I so wanted to believe that this book might have been channeled directly from Yeshua. Of course, logically, how would one know that for sure? Ultimately, however, I wasn’t convinced that this book – channeled, though it is claimed to have been – is the true account of Yeshua’s or Jesus’s activities two thousand some odd years ago.Or at least – not all of it. Some of it may be true, in the sense that as with many who have been regressed by psychotherapists/psychologists such as Michael Newton, Roger Woolger and hypnotherapists such as Dolores Cannon and others, those regressed remembered past lives with Jesus or remembered having been connected to him in some other way. Even the Sleeping Prophet, Edgar Cayce, did readings for many who claimed to have walked and worked with Jesus so long ago and therefore seemed to know things that they otherwise couldn’t have known.So, yes, in that sense, it might be possible that someone who had either experienced a past life with and actually was privy to Jesus’s thoughts (because Jesus relayed those thoughts to this individual), this person could have reincarnated in the early 20th Century and then… remembered? Channeled? what they had experienced when incarnated in that lifetime with Jesus 2,000 years ago.But the problem is that several things struck me as being off, the language used not withstanding. While, in my opinion, there were many points of contention, there was at least one if not more reference/s that strongly suggests that Jesus’s whole ministry was put forth by the Roman Government within about 40 years after his death, and then in the several hundred years leading up to the entrance of the Roman Church beginning in the 4th Century after Jesus’s death.After all the research conducted by numerous Bible scholars over the years who have determined – based on voluminous amounts of research into whether Jesus was historical or not – it was ultimately determined by many scholars that the Roman Government concocted the Jesus story that can now be found in the Christian Bible or so-called ‘New Testament.’ Whether this is true remains to be seen. But the evidence seems to be overwhelmingly damning.In fact, much of what is purported to have occurred to him as relayed by the Roman (Catholic) Church in their written communications amongst themselves and to others outside the Church and Roman government and even in the so-called ‘Gospels’ and other ‘canonized’ books of the New Testament, was shown by many Biblical and other scholars to be concocted.(If you’re not convinced of this, do a search utilizing terms such as ‘Jesus was created by the Roman government’ or ‘the Roman Church’ or even ‘Did the Romans Invent Jesus?’ Even writers such Joseph Atwill.)No, I’m not suggesting that Yehoshua/Yeshua wasn’t a legitimate historical figure. From all the research I’ve done – both in as well as outside the Bible – he was definitely real. Yet, whether he was what the Catholic Church claims he was, is questionable. And because it appears that the Church ‘fathers’ are really the ones who wrote the so-called ‘New’ Testament, as well as re-worded much of the Hebrew Scriptures (Old Testament), how can anything claiming to be channeled (such as this book) truly be believable?Aside from that, what most have not considered concerning some of Jesus’s reported words spoken in scriptures such as John 14:12-14 based on some of his alleged own words, even negate what we are told he actually believed. And these are contradictions WITHIN THE NEW TESTAMENT BIBLE ITSELF, almost as if the scribe recording the words in question hadn’t checked to ensure that what he had written didn’t conflict with other parts of both the New Testament as well as the Hebrew Scriptures or Old Testament.The bottom line is that Jesus argued with the Pharisees and Sadducees, with the allegedly knowledgeable teachers of the Torah, ultimately telling them that their perception of how they were interpreting God’s purpose for man was all wrong. If one really pays attention to what is actually written in the Bible, one can see that, essentially, Jesus is saying that the so-called Law that was being promulgated by the Hebrew/Jewish elders and promoters of the Law was not only due to be replaced by a new ‘covenant,’ but was never accurate in the first place. And maybe that was WHY the so-called ‘Old Covenant’ was being replaced by something that made more sense.However, while this book has been a valuable addition to my knowledge of biblical and so-called canonical lore, I don’t feel that the extraneous information not found in the traditional Gospels and other writings regarding Jesus, is truly accurate. My opinion of course, but my opinion nonetheless.

A different perspective
Yesterday I ordered this book to be sent to a pen pal friend in prison. I did so for a few reasons. One is that prisons allow many fundamental Christians virtually free reign in their attempts to "save" the sinners all prisoners are. These well meaning folks in many cases essentially add to the guilt and alientation virtually all prisoners share. Another reason I'm sending it to my friend is that he is well respected for his insights regarding spirituality so when he recommends this book those that know him will be prone to consider what it invites.Reading a few reviews I can see where what is contained in the book is quite threatening. One person looked at it primarily in the historical perspective using the Bible as the benchmark to disagree with its accuracy.For me having first read this work over 20 years ago the invitations within it are not just about Jesus by any means. It is a metaphysical treatise. If one has an open heart and mind there will be found within its pages invitations to move past some of our self created limitations.People quibble if its Divinely inspired. Those that do do not accept and understand that everything is at its core Divine. In time they will.If you are seeking a further understanding of your place and relationship with what Is this book could help.Namaste,Michael

Awesome! Life-changing!
I am not sure anymore how I discovered it, but once I tasted it, I could not stop. It gives such a rounded and more complete view of Jesus, how he became who he became, what his life life was really about, and how my life fits into his/God's vision for the world, the universe in its various manifestations. The reviews talked about it being a best-seller not too long ago , and a reference was made to a movie based on it, but I never heard of the book and could not locate the film. I am thinking the "powers that be" in the Catholic Church may have used some of their power to make it all go away, as per Dan Brown's experience. I am just grateful I have been able to access and share it through Amazon.com.
