Questions for God

Well, if God is evolving then God is not perfect. A perfect being has no need to evolve. If God is always changing then God is inconsistent and uncertain. If there is no one absolute truth but many different kinds of truths depending on perspective then the truth means nothing. It changes from person to person from place to place. That's basically what we're left with as soon as we try to reconcile God with the universe.

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

Boom, right there we get the monster the Bible calls God. I guess this is enough to satisfy most theists, but I've never been happy with it. To me God remains perfect. I just don't get why God remains so difficult to know.

I sometimes look to my parents to see God. They say we can see God in the people we interact with. Sometimes it's hard to do, but sometimes I think I catch a glimpse. I agree that knowing our true self is fundamental to our Spirituality, but again easier said than done. I find that I spend most of my time separating the wheat from the chaff. The chaff is pretty ugly. I don't think that by rejecting ego I reject myself because I don't consider my true self to be ego, but rather the part that tells me to choose otherwise.

Anyway, I hope I haven't offended egos or discouraged anybody from posting their questions/answers here. I do respect all belief systems that do no harm on the basis that I really don't know what the truth is. Obviously there are those who disagree with me and that's fine to.

Do you know of anything or anyone that stays the same? Never changes? Has god created other than himself or is it even possible when god is everything? The notions of perfection and imperfection are a human construct. I do not believe god judges his own creations this way. Oh oh fucked that one up.

Ego is who you have become and is therefore a part of your true self, unless you think your true self is not a human being.

As my ego is integrated I take full responsibility for having no respect for belief systems especially because they are built in the philosophy of someone elses' life. Some of them are way beyond belief, even ludicrous, and ridiculous, and are so far removed from reality that they belong on another planet. However, I do love and respect humanity. I think we deserve better and do not deserve to be compared with a 'perfect' image of god based on the model of a 'perfect' human being that has never, and never will, exist.

Is God in a different dimension? And if so, wouldn't it be difficult to communicate with us?

When Cayce left this world and went down the path of light, he knew every answer to every question...as i did when I went there. When he came back, he could not remember the answers or much of anything. He remembered the feeling he had. That is exactly how it happened with me.

Doesn't that indicate a problem in communicating with another dimension?

I think I have realized my entire purpose in this life. I will never know for sure unless I leave. My father is what I consider a bad man. He ran a top secret Federal underground facility beneath a missle manufacturer.

I was given a golden opportunity in this life. I was born intelligent and gifted, and in a free country with potential strings attached. My parents are totally selfish and there is no love. My purpose was to break the chain. I was supposed to join up and continue the secret stuff they do.

I just knew I did not want to be like them, and I told them no when I was recruited. I received retaliation, as if they knew all of this. They never came right out and confronted me. I think I was poisoned, and I think it was my dad, but he had others do the deed. But I didn't die...I came back.

They waited for me to be noticeable and if I ever interacted with a government agency they attacked. This shows what ambitious people do when ego is in control. I don't think my dad was a bad soul. But, my mother is a different story. She seems to know she is bad.

It all just seems to display the fact that we cannot communicate with God. I have strange dreams where a man who is leading a group of people asks me to join him. I have even had a hot feeling come over me when I was awake and had this dream.

Now is perfect. Always was, always will be, like it or lump it, it is what it is, complete within itself, and you cannot change it, life now is the only true reality, feel free to leave it at will and create any other reality you choose to, and live with the consequences

God changing ?. peace becoming peaceful, joy rejoicing, love loving itself, gratitude being grateful. light shining brighter, creating more of itself to give to itself, this is the unchanging nature of spirit and nothing more, it's the expansion of nothingness that's often the greatest challenge for the divided mind as nothing to the ego is the symbol of it's death and the fear of it's death.
God and the Atheist have a lot of nothing in common ! - a dichotomy!- A FULL NOTHINGNESS or an EMPTY NOTHINGNESS, we know them both to choose from, nothing is concealed from you it is within you.
Happy Every Day

You still see god as separate, don't you? All peace love joy and light but life doesn't work that way no matter how much you try. God is life and the totality of life, excluding nothing.

No I don't, I feel the thing called god as life it all it's totality and I KNOW I have Choice- excluding nothing means including nothing. do you KNOW this feeling Maguru of nothingness expanding ? I do and I choose it as the most important thing in my life, I feel it as HOME and I am absolutely connected to this and not separate from it, it is possible to be at peace in the midst of war and chaos.

The world you see has nothing to do with reality. It is of your own making, and it does not exist.

ACIM

The world you see is an illusion of a world. God did not create it, for what He creates must be eternal as Himself.

ACIM

The body neither lives nor dies, because it cannot contain you who are life. . . God did not make the body, because it is destructible, and therefore not of the Kingdom. The body is the symbol of what you think you are. It is clearly a separation device, and therefore does not exist.

ACIM

There is no world apart from your ideas because ideas leave not their source, and you maintain the world within your mind in thought.

ACIM

God has never created other than himself which is why the physical universe does not exist. It is no more than a thought in our mind that we stubbornly try to make real. The fact that the universe is always changing does not reflect the changelessness of God anymore than a dream reflects reality.

maguru wrote: Ego is who you have become and is therefore a part of your true self, unless you think your true self is not a human being.

I do not think that my body is my true self. Ego is no more than an idea that we hold. It's as powerful as we make it. It's as real as we believe it to be. Ego is the thought system that projected the physical universe. It's our choice to reject God. When we change our mind about the ego and choose against it we realize what true reality is.

You mean like believing that a perfect God created this place? I frequently remind myself that Mother Teresa was a Catholic. People can only accept what they are prepared to accept. Even though on a personal level I disagree with much of it I realize that religion has it's place.

As I said, to me God remains perfect as does our true self. You're welcome to believe in whatever type of God you wish to believe in, but we can both agree that the “god” of the universe certainly falls short of perfection.

maguru wrote: The notions of perfection and imperfection are a human construct. I do not believe god judges his own creations this way.

There is nothing to fear. God does not forgive, because he has never condemned.

ACIM

Judgment and condemnation are ego ideas. God does not judge what does not exist, and what does exist is perfect.
