In His Almightiness and Goodness God created ‘sin’.
He created an incarnate son who saved thousands from the death of sin to the life of Divine Grace -- to reveal His Graciousness and Mercy.
He created miracles of cures and healings as a visible picture of His spiritual work against evil, which He created in the first place (but that he doesn’t really like to talk about that much).
He created draughts to bind the faithful to Him in prayer for rain.
He created calamities to spread fear – so all the despair would turn his Creation to Him in hope of averting the next one, or maybe then the next, or the next (?)
He created plagues that ravage across the land to show His Almighty Power and Dominance.
He created Himself as His Creation’s idea of ‘Him holding the Heavens in His Hands (definitely!) and searching the abyss and will listen to our petitions, and in His own good way (lol), bring about the answer we need’. Yaaayyy
In His infinite knowledge and power He will, in some way best known to Him, bring about what we ask. (in God we trust …isn’t it?)
He created Christianity to teach that He created and governs the world.
He created it as His Providence.
He created conscience to guide us and control the tendencies of 'man's nature' he also created us as.
He created intelligence and free-will capable of knowing and serving Him, and created us for that purpose.
He created Himself in a supernatural manner throwing a flood of light on the relations which should exist between man and Himself.
He created the Bible that contains this revelation as the Book of His Word. He also created Himself as supernatural. (megalo something)
He created another realm of existence beyond the sphere of nature with spiritual beings and departed souls. yup
He created both spheres, the natural and the supernatural under His overruling but everloving Providence. right
He created religion as the knowledge, love and service of Himself for our upliftment.
Thus he created Worship with its essence – prayer.
He created prayer so that man can speak to Him in acts of faith, hope, love and contrition to implore His aid.
He created grace and miracles, he created them to have meaning to us so that we do not realize ourselves for ourselves as He wanted to be needed.
He created Himself as the fulfillment of constant desire for interference in the life of man which He presents Himself within as ‘fatherly care’.
He created the idea of ‘purity of heart’ that pleases Him in some mysterious way, especially when it is the basis on which sacrifice to Him is prepared.
He created the universal tendency to refer all striking phenomena to supernatural causes.
He created error and exaggeration to test the faith in His Providence.
He created an abiding conviction in His Almightiness.
He created dualism.
He created his own justification by creating Leibniz.
He created a great plan for him to publish a work to show that the evil in the world does not conflict with His Goodness.
He created ‘optimism’ that notwithstanding its many evils, the world is the best of all possible worlds. Aha-hmm
To keep things interesting He also created Pierre Bayle so that he would deny His Goodness and Omnipotence. For this He also created all the sufferings he was to experience in his life.
So He created philosophers and their attention on the problem of evil.
In His Almightiness and Knowingness he created new philosophical terms to further ideas and diversion from simply being Here in the physical.
He created death for His creation to experience the other realms of His creation so it was enabled to remain within time loops and not come anywhere to realize their own source origin.
He created everything to remain in the center of attention.
He created Ministers, Bishops and the Pope as representatives to herald His All-Presence and to lead sheep straying toward Life back to Him.
He created Kant and Hume to awaken some serious doubt in His believers as a test of faith.
He must revel in the polarity of solid reason against the long-tested arguments for His existence enjoying the energy created.
He created new schools of thought that taught the idea of the existence of Him being a deep-rooted natural impulse. This, of course, he had also created.
He created ideas that the impulses of our hearts are of more value than the absolute certainty and that His existence could not be demonstrated – a certainty as to this truth could only be furnished by inner experience, feeling and perception. (Attention Deficits?)
He obviously created obscurity. Definitely.
And must love to play.
He created the ‘decision of the heart as a guarantee of the truth’ contra ‘the intellectualism of ‘Is God dead’?’ thus ensuring that we stay within and as the mind – the ‘heart people’ seeking the faint glimpses of His essential greatness and beauty and the ‘intellectual people’ seeking cognition and knowledge.
He created Himself as being ‘unknowable’ and thus all knowledge will be incomplete and consequently any attempt to reason about His attributes and our relation to Him is foredoomed to failure. (Playing hard to get…)
He created the soul and the question of its reality.
He created the doctrine of a future life – as life after death.
He created immortality.
He created fear of death – and fear of life – and fear of ourselves – and fear of Him – and fear of others – and the list goes on
He created us as mind so we could fully appreciate Him.
He created imagination and hope together with stupidity and despair.
He created systems that accentuate the distinction of soul and body which make the bodily life a mere transitory episode in the existence of the soul.
He created periodic world-destruction in Brahminsim and then Nirvana to be able to forget all this again.
He even created a ‘world-soul’: the unseen seer, the unheard hearer, the unthought thinker, the unknown knower, the Eternal in which space is woven and which is woven in it’
He created cosmology, theology, physics and mental sciences --- musical concord and mathematical symmetry, gravity, acceleration and insanity.
He created sameness and otherness.
He created the idea of evolution versus creationism to keep us busy and thinking.
He created the theory of ‘mind-stuff’ for those who accept evolution - they must, for the sake of consistency, assume that there is attached to every particle of matter in the universe a bit of rudimentary feeling or intelligence, so when combined in a certain specific way they form consciousness and eventually human consciousness. – Thus He created the immediate coupling of mind and matter.
He created volition and threw it into the equation.
He created inconceivability and thus a need for a creator. A need in man for Him!
He created trust in something Superior – outside of man. God is clever, in a way.
He created the opposition of mind and matter, of dualism and monism.
He created the idea of an underlying substratum.
He created matter as taking up space, subject to motion, possessed of inertia and resistance and contrasts it with mind as acts of consciousness that are born and then annihilated.
Herein He created apprehension of the material world because we depend on it and believe we are not really in control of it and limited by it.
He created a craving to find unity in the seeming multiplicity of experience but at the same time fearing it.
He created fear of influence of the mind and fear of limitation of matter.
He created the idea that ideas are the only thing of which we can be certain in Monism.
He created the idea that the human mind has had no real influence on the history of mankind in strict materialism.
God – in His Almightiness and Omnipotence created everything – we have allowed and accepted it as us – now we have to sort it out – redefine and redirect us as Life for real as substance, in and as mind and matter and use common sense instead of a concept of ‘reason’ that is made up of layers of ideas of old, unchallenged, pieces of knowledge – here a bit, there a bit. We actually really have to put ourselves together again in the realization that there is no ‘true knowledge’ of the material world or any others out there outside of us – we are all there is – it is all us.
Let’s walk this together to not ever give permission to this again.
