God Invasion! God Invasion! A Theology of Consequence
We do not know much about the ineffable Most High God, except that He is. We can look tens of billions of light years away, and in every direction there are but thousands upon thousands of entire galaxies of stars. Here on earth we have states. States of being, that is.
With all due respect to all the people who lent their historicity to the characters of the Bible, the characters of the Bible are allegories of states. Adam and Eve, the antediluvian fathers, Noah, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Joseph, Jesus and all others are states we may attain. And in some of these states the Ineffable will reveal himself to us.
Abram, "the Exalted Father," is a state. Say we are that state; our consciousness is acutely aware of the Ineffable's presence, of our Godhood as the Exalted Father in and by Him. Then, as in Genesis 17: 1, the Ineffable reveals himself to us: "I am I, the (one of whom you say) 'He is'--the Almighty. Worship before Me and be without fault" (my paraphrase of Victor Alexander's translation from the ancient Aramaic). Yikes! That is Him, the Big Guy, HERE!! "When vision breaks into speech, it indicates the presence of the Almighty" (Neville Goddard).
His revelation moves us to another, higher state, because now we know Him: "Your nature shall be Merciful Father, for I give you as Father (God) to many peoples" (my paraphrase of Genesis 17: 5).
Do not miss that the Most High God, the Ineffable, is conscious of and is monitoring our consciousness, our minds, our imagination. He hears it because it is His. He isn't shocked by anything we might think--it is His imagining in our independent reality--BUT THE REAL HIM CAN BREAK INTO OUR "REALITY" AND CONVERSE WITH US, BECAUSE ALL OF THIS IS REALLY HIM.
Thousands of people are studying Neville Goddard and Joseph Murphy &c. because they want to learn how to manifest all their desires. Fine. Go for it. But remember, as Neville frequently insisted: "When it works, you have found Him." And Him is real.
THERE IS NO LAW OF ATTRACTION. "Magnetic attraction" is a bunch of bogus hooey designed to deny Him-with-whom-we-have-to-do. We do not vibrate; we imagine. Imagining is the ineffable Most High God. Imagining is His speech, and His speech is His intention. His intention becomes states as the universe and the world (power that is intelligent) conforms to His will. "Causation by magnetic attraction due to rate of vibration" is the excuse a mind in ignorance comes up with. When the Ineffable reveals Himself, you realize just how utterly ridiculous the so-called Law of Attraction really is.
"When it works," means that our imagining has created; it has caused a notable change in the world. This is of great consequence. It indicates that our imagination is God--the Ineffable. His imagining is our imagining, and vice-versa. All that Bible stuff is real. Maybe the Bible doesn't say it directly the way we commonly read it, but maybe the way we commonly read it is just wrong. Maybe we should be translating biblical names as potential natures and states. We should understand that feminine gender relates to causative emotions and desires, and we should correct our imagining by conforming it to the revealed nature of God Himself, the Law.
Learn the Law, but remember that the Promise is the important part: We shall be like Him
P. S.
One thing I will grant those who preach the Law of Attraction: to "raise the rate of your vibration," you need to IMAGINE what you want vividly, vibrantly, intensely--like it really is. And, that when it works, you have found Him--"your own, wonderful, human imagination. "
