My story is not for the religious or the atheistic or the agnostic... it is for everyone interested in the truth. This blog contains first drafts of poetry and prose for my series of books on Christ, the first of which, Waking Up Jesus, is being greeted kindly by critics. Thank you... John Scott Ridgway
TRUE STORY:
WAKING UP JESUS
The ongoing story of Jesus waking up in Chicago, in the body of an agnostic writer,
who is nothing like the Son of God the right-wing Christians watching him expected.
You are welcome to share my work with a link bank... keep getting asked this...
Last time I was here, I told them I would not lead a revolution, that I was there to spread heresy. The crowds thinned. The day they killed me, I marched alone... This time I have returned to find Romes Soldiers Sleeping, content they have killed off the Troublesome Jew. I was surprised how bloody the Indiana boy became as my sword fell again and again ....
In the years since this story began in 2007, my secret fame has spread out from the halls of power that kept me secret all these years, as they waited for the Christ to finally wake up...
I try to imagine their anticipation.
Remember a dream I had in my twenties about running thru Chicago screaming that Christ was coming back, and man oh man was I happy... a cloud came through the middle of the skyscrapers above me, in the thin strip of blue above Dowtown State street, and I expected to see Christ... instead, just a bunch of musicians painted up like Ziggy stardust.
I surprised my keepers. They thought they had me figured out from the Bible. If that book could have told you everything, there would be no need at all for me.
Jesus: "I have become Known across this planet as a dangerous man with a growing force of hidden followers who value my orders more than life itself. A prophet of war. Once and future King in a court of shadows. Life and death in my hands every damn day. I ROAR, your most mighty shit themselves and run. I make myself a known threat, so I can try to negotiate what otherwise requires bullets and blood. I am here to free the enslaved in body and mind. I cannot be defeated. When the Will of God and The WILL OF THE PEOPLE ARE ONE, NO FORCE ON EARTH CAN STOP US!"

Waking Up God
There are people all over the planet proclaiming they are Jesus. Another reason for me just to stay shut up. I meet a lot of people who have no idea who I am, at all. If I told them this, they would think I was nuts. I have to balance this with all the people who know about me, and look to me for leadership.
Some people are always going to hate religion. Some people are going to go crazy and say they are God, whether it is a con, or something they really believe. I knew someone who was raised by his parents to think he was Christ, and thought so until he was 14. It is literally all over the place. In the time of the traditional Christ, there were false prophets all over the place.
I do not know if they are evil, though I suspect that they are. They say they are a deity to gain the power of that Deity, not to do any real good. This is another reason why I act, and sometimes very, very reluctantly, only when God kind of shoves me out of the plane.
I was offered the United States once.. when I first came out. I wrote how I loved Ceaser Chavez and Bush went down to tear the fence down between here and mexico. I was stunned by this, still not quite believing what was happening to me. I told them then, I BELIEVE IN A SEPARATION BETWEEN CHURCH AND STATE. A religious deity in politics would issue orders, rather than ask the permission of the people, which is how a government must be run to be pleasing in my eye, really.
I told you, I have a lot of proof about what happened to me. I did not wake up one night thinking this. Others believed it fervently before back when I was an atheist... which puzzled the hell out of them... In fact, during this period, I held up Christopher Hitchens as an athiest who was fearlessly criticizing the church... I love them. God loves them, too... He loves everyone, and creating them to be critics.... Anyways, he is now dying of cancer. Very sad, and somewhat suspicious, but I who knows... the intelligent agencies have perfected how to give cancer, and use it to get rid of people in the public eye, who would cause a stink if just killed.... not that they do not do that, too.
This is why I told you that I cause chaos when exposed. It happened before. In fact, I said something about Kafka that was mistaken to be anti-semitic, and Bush went after the Jews. It got so I could say nothing without making sure it was dummied down enough that everyone understood. It was crippling to me as a writer and an intellectual, as you can imagine.
Anyways, a good rule of thumb is to stay away from anyone who says God speaks to them and all this shit, let alone people who declare themselves to be God. He has never spoken to me, merely showed me things. In my revelation, the only word he knows is love. Most of these people who say they are God, or have some new age solution, are just trying to gain power over you, like some fortune teller, to get your money and worship.
I hope I am getting this across to you.\\
