It seems that once you go to a meta level with Christ, it's not a specific logos.

The powers that be in Christianity and the other world faith religions know this, but only impart a fragment of this truth to their followers. They basically want to keep others in control through fear and the threat of eternal punishment.

How do other religions motivate through fear but you say Christianity doesn't? Isn't Christianity based on saying we are born sinners and must be saved or be damned to hell? Is that not a fear based motivation?

Each of us has full access to the truth and the flow of love and joy (Christ) from Source/God right now. We just have to remove the blinkers from our eyes (fossilized beliefs and resistance).
It may help some to read the bible or practice rituals, but it is not really necessary.
No one can reveal the truth to us. No one is going to come down and save us. We automatically experience the truth when we ourselves see through our self-created, fear-based illusions, and, unfortunately, that includes many religious beliefs.

I see it this way too. Truth is that which unburdens you and allows your true nature at the present moment to be realized and enjoyed, where ever you are in growth.
