The third step is the work on oneself with the use of esoteric meditative methods. The second step consists in changing one’s own ethical qualities in accordance with the righteousness suggested to us by God.
The first step implies receiving the knowledge about how we should understand the word God, what the Evolution of the Universal Consciousness is, what constitutes the meaning of human life and how to realize it in the best way. … This website describes how the spiritual Path was and is understood by Jesus Christ, His closest Disciples-Apostles, and some of the spiritual adepts who fully fulfilled the Teachings of Jesus. That is why, the true Teachings of Jesus Christ should be distinguished from certain beliefs that are also called sometimes “the true Christianity”…
The examples of this are the “Holy” Inquisition, the Crusades and other kinds of aggressive wars launched by “Christian” countries, the inculcation of hatred, aggressiveness, and incredible cruelty towards “infidels” and ”heretics” under the slogan of “struggle for the holy faith”… These Teachings quite often were transformed from Christianity to anti-Christianity, although they were called by the same name. Unfortunately, the Teachings of Jesus were oversimplified in many ways and perverted by people because of their ignorance. However, historically it happened that the term Christianity denotes those Teachings about the Path to the Perfection that were given to us through Jesus Christ. The term Christianity may denote all the knowledge imparted by the Creator to people - during the entire history of human existence on the Earth - through His Messengers, Who are called in different languages Messiah, Christ, or Avatar, among other terms.
