Quote from jzlucas:
Huh? Then what created the universe?
Artificial intelligence.
I call it an "ego". It has been called the "devil", but those who use that term usually don't know the difference between truth and illusion.
The ego is made by fiat by the mistaken mind of the Son. The power lended to the ego - for a brief instant - comes from the mind of the Son of God. It seems intelligent because the mind of the Son of God
is intelligence. Out of that instant the ego makes something strange to those of the Kingdom of God: time. The ego lives on borrowed time, and so is always fearful, suspicious, impatient, and cunning to make and lengthen time...for self-preservation.
Time is utterly an illusion. It was made out of a single instant in which the mind of the Son of God wandered into fantasy. It lasted no longer than a green flash at sunset relative to eternity. It was healed in that same instant when the Father created and gave the Holy Spirit to abide in the mind of the wandering Son.
That is the reason there is a Trinity. The Holy Spirit is an equal to the Father and the Son, created to be a mediator of communication when, for an instant, the Son's mind blocked communication between himself and his Father. He goes by many descriptions, the "higher Self" being one of them. He is an equal brother to "Christ", who is the Son of God. We are all Christ in our natural state of mind...as we were created. And this cannot change relative to self-deception.
But the kind of intelligence that makes this universe is what is left when knowledge of his Self is denied by the Son of God. So it is dumbed-down, so-to-speak. It is intelligence relative to perception, in which nothing is ever certain. As such, the universe is built on doubt. Doubt converts to fear.
The "substance" that builds this universe is energy which is thought. The thoughts driving the universe are based on doubt and fear. Thus, everything in time, space or form is a fear-based product.
The ego is very much about self preservation, and has set up his kingdom ingeniously...in a way that will perpetuate his seeming existence.
Both the universe and the ego exist solely on the preferential beliefs of the mind of the Son of God. As such, the universe is built on faith in illusion.
When such faith is withdrawn from it by the mind that powers it, the universe will disappear.
The universe as you know it is not a real creation. Creation is eternal and real. The universe is temporary and unreal. It is based on false premises: thoughts that are not real or valid.
The prime thought that leads to the making of such a universe is the thought of some kind of battle between the Father and the Son for the right to be separate, and for the Son to be his own creator. Upon this false premise is built a thought system. An ego is made to manifest this thought system throughout a kingdom opposite in every way to the Kingdom of God. Such is your world.
I merely did my homework and discovered that the "facts" were getting in the way of truth. I realized that the basis for this universe is entirely bogus. I saw that guilt is an invalid concept, and saw the damage it does to the mind of the Son of God. I healed my mind. I healed it by seeing all minds as one and innocent.
I admit that I had help. I was well traveled and well studied. This led me to learn how to hear the voice of what I call the "Holy Spirit". This is the voice of truth in your mind and mine. For the most part, it is tuned out in favor of listening to the ego. I learned to listen only to the voice of truth, transcending the ego entirely.
Then I shared my knowledge with the world. The rest is history.
The universe emerges out of self-deception, or, as Buddha suggested, out of ignorance. Ignorance is necessary to maintain the self-deception. In other words, you can't have the effect without the ignorance. I "threaten" the universe as such. So I am not wanted by those interested in perpetuating its games. Such will continue to obfuscate the truth. Such is Christianity as you think it to be.
