To know God, to know Jesus, to know ourselves…

At the shoebox now and had a brief conversation with other Christians in mindspace. Basically they wanted to know the fate of believers who did / did not do anything immoral, think righteously, and behave upstanding.

There are just 2 questions every believer has to ask himself:

1. Can you know God without knowing Jesus without knowing YourSelf?
2. What are the bounds of knowing things?

The first question, is we can know God without knowing any other thing. The Father reflex is indeed a reflex, one that can easily be stomped out of us by sin. By sin, I mean fighting to get ourselves what is not divinely approved. You can search the Bible for laws and rules but you will not know much of what is divinely approved in your situation.

To know sin (good and evil) is to know love of God.

This brings us to the second question. To know anything (even a wife), is to know how to love. Not “love” itself but HOW to love. Does any Math exist that defines itself, physically? No, Math is the HOW, not the WHY. And the WHY is up to you to whenever you feel to propose it.

It is WHY we do things that is judged not HOW.

By this we can know what Jesus did, apparently a useless life wasted to most onlookers on history. But Jesus gave God the WHY. That anyone who agreed to that could instantly be saved -not taste death or the grave of souls.

How Jesus gave you salvation from agreement is simply that He and the Father can reach out to you. It’s like a monkey reaching out for a banana where once it was a poisoned banana.

Should you read the Bible and pray, baptise, communion, etc. Not necessarily. Just agree as you would agree to any contract and uphold it. But it is thru such practices that a man gains wisdom so YMMV. Wisdom can come before great sorrow or joy.

It’s an hour from lunch at the tuck shop nearby. Drank a black Moccona to tide me over. Love typing on my Logi WaveKeys into this old iPad 5. Unfortunately, I can’t afford nicer things due to the witchy preventers. Wish I had brought over my laptop to code. Saved 1kRM for a rainy day. And Notre Dame Cathedral is reopened to a gathering of world leaders in France where the government had just toppled.

There was a request to know how our universe was created.

In the beginning was the Word. And the word was with God. And the Word was God.

Through context, we later knew God to be of a certain mind -He always was, male and female alike. We knew this peculiar deity to have access to powers he never explained -He withheld it from even the Jews. 

But their God gave us Messiah. After which, John explained how they were both related. In the verse above, we see “was”, and “was with”. Since circa 40AD, Word made flesh is now NOT God but is with God, seemingly cut off / SLAIN. And He did so knowing that Messiah would eventually die, just like any man opposite Yahweh.

The Koran describes this birth with mixed reverence and fear, it was not regular procedure. It is this twist that defines our place in the universe, and that of all life. There are emotions as there are thoughts. There are decisions as there are plans. Emotions arise from the propensity of information. Thoughts arise to consummate them. Decisions come then from its gathered winds. Plans form from sacrifice. 

All of creation was made this way. Telepathy is the same. God is the same. Our future is what He says, in general applied to all men. More later…
