The Sin of the Church is Teaching, Believing We are Separate from God

I did not say it nearly clearly enough in The War: the Literal Side of Apocalyptic Language: the sin of Judaism and of the Christian Church is the idea of there being any kind of separation between God and Creation. God is not separate. God is not imminent in Creation; God is MANIFEST in Creation. John said the Word became flesh and dwelt WITHIN us. The idea of distance between ourselves and God is moot: there is no from. “Creation” is God’s imagination. This does not mean that Creation is imaginary. Just as what we imagine becomes real, what God imagines becomes real. At least it becomes tangibly physical, which is God becoming tangibly physical. God’s intelligence is power to become whatever It believes It is. Double-slit experiments informed us of this nearly a hundred year ago.

In presenting God as separate from us, the church denies exactly what the Bible is saying and calls God a liar. “I AM YOU, AND YOU ARE ME,” is probably the best translation of Exodus 3:14 you are ever going to get. GOD WAS NOT SAYING THAT IT IS, AND THAT WE ARE SEPARATE; IT WAS SAYING THAT IT IS EVERYTHING. This is beyond continuity. Deuteronomy 6:4 declares Its ONENESS. Israel is It in us as us, and YHWH is Its manifesting (a verb, not a noun). God is the Ineffable Most High’s consciousness, Its imagination, and we are one with it in Its manifesting.

We are not here to learn this, but to discover and to move into living - fulfilling - our role in and as - being - Its Manifestation. It isn’t that we do one-half of manifesting (the what) separately, and It does the other half (the how) separately. God is not ruling by remote control. It is ruling AS us. As It thinks, we ARE. We are Its thinking. We are altogether one in becoming as we discover our wholeness. There is coordination and cooperation AS GOD because we ARE God WITH God. We both are together as one being . . . manifesting.
