I feel that many come to the understanding that we serve as a part of God, or that God is made up of everything. I am not quite of the same mind. Unfortunately, the idea that we are a part of God does not really hold
in the world of black and white logic.
If we were God now, doing our
own will would be the same as doing God's will, which simply isn't true.
However, you could reason that after fusion with the Thought Adjuster, when our will is always the
same as God's will, we may be labeled as a part of God (or the Supreme
at least). But I am not sure that is entirely true either. I have yet to
decide how unified we really are with God because I know I would need
the aid of mota to really understand the full details. Until then, I
cannot hold any definite stance on the issue.
What I question is the
differing classifications of the human. If I call myself God, I feel
like I am disrespecting the Father, even when a small part of the Father
will eventually become a part of myself. I know what such a statement
is attempting to describe, but on its own I feel it is almost immoral to
state. Others may not understand why I feel this way, but I will stick
with what I think is right. I generally stay away philosophies that can
be twisted into something problematic, and I seem to be pretty good at
seeing the negative side of positive things as they can be misused.
There
may be a truth out there that is technically right, but if it can
easily be misused or misconstrued, it may be best to leave it as an
unknown. I know from experience that if people get the idea that they
are (in a sense) God, when they barely know anything about God, it can
lead to problematic (and even selfish) behavior. There are people who
say they accept Jesus and then condemn others to hellfire. There are
people who believe themselves to be spirit, but then insult others who
do not understand their point of view. There are people who claim to do the will of God when they ostracize people of different faiths or sexual orientations.
Before our experiential role is
explained, the Trinity must first be understood in order to foster a
value system for the individual which is based on truth. Then when
origin or destiny is discussed, people can integrate those values into
their understanding. In other words, people should first learn about
what the Father's will is before they attempt to pursue it, or they
should learn about the Supreme before they learn of their role in
constructing it. If these steps are not followed, people will attempt to
glorify their own will or doings which are not actually in line with
what is best.
