Question: Is the portrait of Jesus painted by Glenda Green a valid portrayal of Jesus?
Answer from ascended master Jesus through Kim Michaels:
It is indeed a valid image of me. However, it is not the only possible image of me. As I explain throughout this website, in the spiritual realm everything is more fluid than in the material realm. I can take on many different appearances, and I have indeed appeared to other artists, both today and in the past, who have painted or sculpted images of me that are also valid offerings from my heart.
So while it is perfectly acceptable to honor the work done by one artist, one should never fall into the trap of thinking that a particular work is the only true image of me. I work with many artists and messengers, but I give a monopoly to none.
This is a mistake that was made by the Catholic Church 1,500 years ago and has been perpetuated both by the Catholic Church and many other churches ever since. No human being or organization ever has had and ever will have a monopoly on the Living Christ and the truth of God. If you keep that in mind, you will avoid falling into the trap of swearing allegiance to a particular outer expression of truth and thereby potentially cause your spiritual growth to come to a grinding halt.
So please enjoy all of the valid offerings without confining yourself to any one of them. The spiritual reality is always greater than any expression of that reality found in the material realm.
