What Dreams May Come

[Ex Nihilo]

Hi All,

I recently had a very strange dream:

I dreamed I was present at Christ's crucifixion. He was suffering terribly. He took a breath, and as he inhaled, I was immediately pulled toward the pupil of his eye like an extreme close-up until I went into the complete blackness of the pupil of his eye and then into another scene in the same motion. It was the scene of some sin being committed in the old testament but instead of the original perpetrator committing the sin it was Christ himself doing it. I keep moving into the pupil of his eye and into another scene of sin that happen earlier in the old testament, over and over again back through the time of the old testament, each time Jesus took the place of the original sinner. I saw Jesus behead John the Baptist. I saw Jesus throw Daniel to the lions, and Jesus toss Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego into the furnace. I saw Jesus steal Uriah's wife. I saw Jesus strike the rock in the place of Moses, I Jesus worship the golden calf. It moved faster and faster back in time...all the way back to the beginning. I saw Jesus kill Abel. All the way back to the Garden of Eden, I saw Jesus there with the serpent biting into the cursed apple. Again I flew into the pupil of his eye, and I was brought back to the exact moment I had left Jesus on the cross, finishing his breath, and then he said, "It is finished!" Then I woke up, with the feeling that a great truth had been revealed to me, "He became our sin, so that in him we become God's righteousness."

I work through a lot of spiritual questions through dreams. Do any of y'all do the same? I'd love to hear your stories. Thanks!

Interesting dream! I wish I could approach the Christ as you did in your dream, mine are not nearly as revealing.

Your interpretation of the dream is (IMO) more important to your spiritual development than anyone else's. I personally believe that the Christ WAS reincarnated many times in many places before he faced the final test. There's a collection of the readings of Edgar Cayce concerning the incarnations of the soul that became the Christ in which he states that He was present from the beginning and appeared first as the original man, Adam (not Cain).
