We are the God of Increase, Abundance and Blessing: Being of It is It no less for it

I was writing notes on my digital Aramaic
version of Genesis 1. I found these
interesting; I hope you will, too (sorry
about the editing -- I can't get the fonts
to co-operate):

Per Victor Alexander's note on John 1: 1-5,

which is on his website v-a.com/bible,  but I do not
believe in his New Testament or Book of
Genesis, the Aramaic word brasheeth means
"before the beginning," as in "before the
foundation of the universe," or "before
creation." I think the connotation would
hold true for the word used in Genesis 1: 1, which would be: 
"Before the beginning, (It, or the Ineffable) created God, 
the Heavens and the Earth." 
Also on John 1: 1-5, the Aramaic word milta,

manifestation,  the essential connotation
for a person or thing, was not coined by
John to mean "the Word" or "Logos," but
rather "God-in-Action." That is, the
manifestation of God is the Ineffable
acting: "Before the beginning there was
God's  moving." The Ineffable's moving
was Its essential connotation, and "was
with It, and was It."  (You have to
understand that the idea of the ineffable, 
incomprehensible No-Thing, Ein Sof, the
bodiless, formless Endlessness which is
above all imaginable forms of mind, thought
and spirit "moving" blows the philosopher's
mind. How, and why, would It move?) Its
moving was the Ineffable's manifestation
in perfect accord with Its essential nature.

"Before the beginning there was God-in-
action" does not quite get there. "God in
action" still sounds like a noun and misses
the implication of the pure verb: the
manifestation was not movement but is
moving. We keep locking, mentally, on
established substance rather than
progressive verb, an action rather than
acting. The Ineffable's manifestation, Its
moving, is the Man. This "Man" is Joshua/
Jesus, and is a verb. This same moving has
become us, is becoming us. We are the
active agency of the doer doing. We are not
here just to look pretty.

The manifestation of the Ineffable, therefore,
is a verbthough it is translated as a
noun. Note Bullinger's observation on
the word Israel in Genesis 32: 28, that
in Hebrew combined names with Jah or El,
God is the doer of the verb, hence Israel =
"God ruling as man" rather than the
traditional "he rules as God". Applying
verb-quality, Joshua/Jesus should be
understood as "God saving" and not "God's
salvation". "Name", of course, in Hebrew
means nature.

According to Rabbi David A. Cooper in God
is a Verb, the Hebrew word bara, created, contains
its own implied  pronoun suffix -- (he/she/it) created. Therefore,
Genesis  1: 1 is not "God created the Heavens"
but "(It) created God, the Heavens, and
the Earth." These three are is code, I
believe, for the Man, the pattern we are
created after. The "Man" -- the pattern
"Man" (Jesus Christ) -- is the parameters
of God's nature, YHWH. The ineffable,
unknowable God became knowable in Its
acting because It became us. We are the
acting, the moving, of the Ineffable. That
should blow anybody's mind.

The incomprehensible, ineffable whatever-It-is
desired form.  Hence, It undertook moving -
- however No-Thing would do that -- to
become form. We are the vibration, if you
would, of Its moving.

To become the utmost of contraction of
consciousness amongst the "muddies", the
highest possible state of consciousness
has to dip to the lowest possible state 
of consciousness. The Ineffable is
experiencing this state, whatever state
of consciousness we are in, and in this
we are the sons of God. David, the beloved
Son of God, is the sum total of God's
experiencing via human states of
consciousness.

There is only one God, of course, who
has become everything. Expansion,
manifestation, emanation, facet -- call
them what you will -- there is only God,
and only one God, in the world. Our
awareness of being is our live-wire
connection to him. For us to know him, the
big It, he will have to raise our
awareness of being up to his level of
awareness, to his "state" of being. We
are only at the beginning a grand journey.

We are, in the end, the infinite,
eternally expanding God of increase,
abundance and blessing; the God of all
power and wisdom. Yes, we were dumbed down
to the consciousness of this dimension of
death and our (his) true nature is hid
within us, but we are waking up! We might
as well start thinking like who we really
are. God and the world are all imagination.
God manifests all the universe by imagining 
as-yet unmanifested realities. All
realities are already created; they invisibly
await manifestation.

The world is fluid, plastic to the Ineffable's
acting.  That is us. Imagine experiencing
your as-yet unmanifested but desired
reality. Experientially "touch" that
reality in your imagination -- be God
acting there -- and the unseen reality
will become manifest in time.
