The Gospel - GenerallyGod is simply mind - and because God is Eternal and Immense, He doesn't directly have an Outside. The only Outside this Infinite being has is inside of Himself. Now, whether it is the male or the female part that corresponds to introverted or extroverted - hmm, difficult to think of. We might look into the world of Birds where it usually is the male who is the more pretty one, the extroverted one. But, again, my conclusions is far simpler than being bothered of such issues. There is the term called 'Barbelo' - it is a Gnostic term that is mentioned next to the various appearances of the Beginning, appearances that include 'Christ' as the given 'First Insight' (Eternal Life, the Word, the Self-Reflection of Eternity) - yet not in forms of an appearance. I have come to understand it as the presence of consciousness within these thoughts - something that we later may come to describe as the Holy Ghost. These appearances are thoughts - which is introduced via how it all began. Eternity beheld itself, this became a recognition, an insight, and this insight became a thought - a thought that reflected the insight, and thus as Eternity beheld itself it awoke to consciousness. When or how - again - it does not matter. The stories of those times are often confusing, weirdly about figures within eery appearances, darkness, fire, clouds and water. Stories of how all these things mix speak of pleasant and not so pleasant things that arose - and in a back and forth between comfort and discomfort, well, somewhere therein the human individual is being found. Because our minds - so that what I believe - weren't isolated from all this, but each in its own size part of the whole in a fragment; Is this initial Chaos - whatever it may have been in detail - our place of origin. We were part of the big mass that came into existence when existence has yet been young - to its own right - in terms of consciousness. Thus are there some that are accounted to the Light and others that are accounted to the Dark. In these early stages the word doesn't hold a lot of value. Someone drops a line and the entire Universe tremored about its philosophical meaning, yet, without much consideration. In our modern days that would be comparable to a Monkey Cage, maybe. Here and there we've grown to reason. We'll allow people to say what they hold on their mind and listen interested to eventually learn, applaude, support or object. And that tells me the story of the Gospel in a Nutshell! We are to grow older, reasonable - so that we no longer are simply victims of our origin, but capable of making a good decision nontheless! This decision were about us though, about how we want to be! Do we want to be rudimentarily primitive like back then, disregarding, unthoughtful, chaotic? Or do we want to legitimately exist within a society of human beings? "A little bit of reason" is to say as much as: Before you just turn away and go your way, be sure to at least know what it means to live the life of a Human Being! I for myself am like an Animal [The Confessions of an Animalic being] and it isn't asked from me to shake that from myself! It is one of the things, well, that God is kindof ... well ... silent about! Its naturally so that here or there I have to step over my own self to get along - but its never Gods intent to really support me in that. When I feel like I need help and I ask Him, well, He's ... gone! Kindof! It is so required of those that mean to be strong to get a hold of this thing and to support Gods way of things. It would also be in my favour, at the end, if I could redeemed that way. Well, OK, I myself mean to be strong too - so - either way! Either way I got myself involved into this story - and have been involved on higher demand - but thats not the point. The point is that there is an idea - an idea that concerns us as individuals. It needs to be fortified - there need to be strong individuals that help us say how things are going to be. People that describe the outlines, structures we can wrap our minds around to possibly agree to it. Its a relatively confusing way of saying that we'd otherwise just be a lush dump of fog that doesn't know where or why its going. We expect it to happen - somehow - and God would do His thing but so does He do His thing by giving us the time to grow into it ourselves. Naturally this growth isn't simply of us doing our thing - that by the way is the way it was! How things went! How the misery took effect! There is an idea and God will be the stone, the grid, the rods in the vine-yard where the plants grow up on. Thus of course compliance will be expected - as it is: required! |
