QUESTION: “You said that the spirit of Christ was created as the highest. Am I to understand that this was an exception and that it was created that high and that He did not have to go through development and incarnations?”

ANSWER: “Never. No, but in this respect Christ is not the only one. There are many other beings in the spirit world who have not gone through the cycle of incarnation. Some of them have never been incarnated; some of them came freely once to fulfill a certain mission. Not every being in existence has to go through life on earth. Only those who were included in the so-called fall of the angels. And Christ was certainly not one of them. Christ was, as I said, the first creation of God, the most direct. The only difference between God and Christ is that God is the Creator and Christ is created. But otherwise God and Christ are one in substance and love and wisdom.” (PL #19)
