You Are Already Complete

 and in Him you have been made complete, and He is the head over all rule and authority;  Colossians 2:10

    One of the issues that has caused confusion among Black People of the I AM, in particular, is the errant religious notion that argues that you are not complete in yourself. This is a quiescent hold-over from your past enslavement that says you are not complete now, but if you do what you are told, you will be complete one day.

   Through a mistaken (ignorant) quiescent understanding of the Bible, many unaware theologians still teach the notion of your imperfection in books, sermons, and hymns.

   If you are to be successful in doing any work or achieving any goal, you must believe that you are a Whole Person with regard to it. Your completed work is the outward manifestation of a corresponding inner completeness in yourself.

   This is true at all levels. When you believe that there are no conditions that you cannot master that stand between you and your completion of whatever you intend to accomplish, then you are complete with respect to that thing.

   Your recognition of your completeness is the measure of what you are able to do. Accordingly, your knowledge of the fact of your completeness is of urgent importance. You must grasp two fundamental truths: 1) Spirit is Life, pure and simple; and 2) external things are the result of internal forces. You will not find it difficult to see why you are complete. To think otherwise is to believe that the All-Originating Power of the universe is either unable or unwilling to produce the complete expression of its own intention in the creation of human beings in its image and likeness. To believe that the All-Originating Spirit of God was unable to fulfill its own intention is a negation of its creative power. To believe it unwilling to do so is to slander that Great and Glorious Name.

   In forming humankind, the All-Originating Spirit of God must of necessity have produced a perfect work. Thus, your perception of yourself as imperfect can only be the result of your own ignorance of who you really are. So, your advance in transformation, expansion, and evolution is not a process of adding to yourself what you lack, but rather bringing out into action powers unused before that are already in existence within you. Because of false teaching which has impacted your view of yourself, you have always taken for granted that you are by nature defective in some of the most important faculties necessary to fit you to your environment.

   You are left, then, with the truth that you must seek these extraordinary powers within yourself. You are not to go outside yourself for these. They are yours by birthright. This is the Great Secret. You are not to go outside yourself to look for power. As soon as you do so, you will find, not power, but weakness. To seek strength from any outside source is to make an affirmation of your weakness, and by now, you know that road leads to slavery and Death.

   You are complete in yourself. If you fail to realize this fact, it is because you do not yet understand how far your self extends. You are One with the All-Originating Spirit of God. Everything that can be done at the Universal Macrocosmic Level, you can do at your individual microcosmic level.

   You know that the whole of anything consists of all of its parts, and not only some of them. Yet this is just what you do not seem to know about yourself. Every person, including yourself, is a specific, individualized concentration of the All-Originating Spirit of God into an individual consciousness.
