Good Luck to Maw and the Good Vibe University . . . In Spite of There Being No Such Thing as the Law of Attraction
I noticed
in my blogspot data some referring URLs from goodvibeuniversity.com. Checking the site I found that while it is a
subscription club about imagining, it is under the banner of the Law of
Attraction (LOA).
I prefer the term 'apoplexed' to 'aghast' and 'flummoxed,' because I really am struck dumb by the fact that anyone could be so dumb as to believe the Law of Attraction. Really? The so-called Law of Attraction is, in my opinion, two points below stupid. Does it work? Sure it works, but it does not work because your vibration is attracting like-vibes; it is working because God is creating the experience you are imagining, and he is creating what you are imagining because you are that God!
Sure, Neville Goddard explained something like the Law of Attraction in a lecture, but he stuck with the idea for how long? Like about that one lecture. The LOA people even call what they do conscious creation. Creation. It is the creation of thought, and from that thought God works in a way you could never yourself devise to create the manifestation of your thought-creation. It works, but it is not your vibration attracting like vibrations -- you don't see gold coins rolling down the street to your wealth-thinking feet!
Why the "Law of Attraction"? To explain away God. Because when imagining works, the only explanation is God. And if God, really God, well, it makes some people uncomfortable. Especially the greedy, self-absorbed and self-serving. As long as God can be explained away or is separated and far, far off, they are happy to think of only themselves. Were they to believe that their imaginations were actually God's, well, that is too close for comfort! (It is Christmas, so let me sing: "Oh, tidings of comfort and greed, comfort and greed. Oh, tidings of comfort and greed!")
Do I mind? Not at all. The Good Vibe University is a wonderful idea! You go, girl! Get rich while you can! Every one of the dollars contributed by your members will prove their worth when they find that there is no such thing as the law of attraction apart from actual magnets and gravity. It is the price of the lesson, and will be worth every cent to the members when they finally learn that there really is nothing except God: "your own, wonderful, human imagination!" --Neville
C. F. Rehnborg (Jesus and the New Age of Faith) was absolutely right. There is something going on that is not what the Jews think it is, nor what the Christians think it is, nor what the LOA conscious creators think it is. What is called for is a new faith in what IS going on, which is God alive and FUNCTIONING in us and through us and to us as "Jesus Christ," the wisdom and power of the Ineffable Most High God which saves us from the effects of our ignorance.
When we were born we took on total amnesia. The amnesia made us ignorant. The above mentioned cults are used of God to lead the gullible ignorant who follow them to the Truth hid within them (both thems). Our ignorance will not withstand the truth of God any more than baby food withstands meat meant for an adult. The cults' demographic is the ignorant, and that is God's demographic, too! The cults get us to SEE that imagining works, and God will get these to see that the Law of Attraction is nonsense. Where can they go from there? Nowhere but to God, whom they find in the working to be the one who is doing the working.
Sorry there is no church for this. Do not be surprised if someone creates one. Stay away from the crystal hawkers and dream-catcher weavers! Candle voo-doo? Personally, I find it better to just go it alone, because everyone wants to drag everything except God into it. God himself teaches wonderfully. And we have Neville.
