The speed of light

If you had been present at the moment of the resurrection of Jesus, what would you have seen? If there had been a video camera outside the tomb, what would it have seen recorded? Probably there would have been a huge flash of light.

The historical figure, Jesus of Nazareth, moved beyond any confinement in space and time and became Light Itself, which we now know from astrophysics is omnipresent in the universe, and its speed is the ultimate measure of all things. That’s why you and I have total access to the Christ. He morphed from the confined Jesus to the Cosmic Christ, which includes all of creation—and even you and me.

We are a part of that one shared light (Ephesians 5:8), that "enlightens all people" (John 1:9), and has come down from "the Father of all Light" (James 1:17). In John's Gospel he predicted the same: "I am the Light of the world" (John 8:12). One could even say that in Christ, God and Light have become the same. And nobody on this earth can control the light. It goes where it goes—instantaneously.
