This page is to clear up so many inconsistencies in our thoughts about God.
There is a lot of disharmony caused by people of differing religious beliefs. Most of us believe in some kind of higher power that we call "God". We all argue over our differences in opinion, but it seems like few people have offered to compare and contrast. We all agree that God is love, life, creation, energy, infinite and unperceivable yet present within all things and that we somehow are separated from God or are not worthy in some way. So God wants something from us. If God wants something from us, wouldn't we be made to know what God wanted? If not, it seems that expectation without clear communication is God's forte!
What could we provide an omnipotent creator that the omnipotent creator could not provide for itself?
Most religions are about salvation of some sort. Enlightenment, salvation or "Heaven" seems to be a common spiritual concept. It appears as though we would have zero spiritual development without some type of connection with God such as a Messiah, a Guru, a book, a religion or an ancient culture. Most definitely, we should have been given the tools at birth to become "saved" because salvation that is dependant upon something outside of one's self means that someone will be left out. Why would an all powerful God of love leave anyone out?
If God is in all things, then God has a connection with ALL people. No exceptions.
However, there is something about being a human that makes us somehow less than perfect, needing to gain something in order to be closer to God. What makes us different or separate from God? Being limited inside a non-infinite human being with a unique or "original" perspective. A human being has but to obtain salvation through raised awareness to a higher level, presumably to the level that God resides. This means eliminating fear and separation from our lives. This involves Honesty, Objectivity, Kindness and Respect amongst other things. So we should alter our behavior and our perceptions in order to eliminate fear, separation, sin and evil from our lives. According to most religions, God loves us all and wants us to be together or "one". It is THAT simple. No books are needed, no math equations or money transactions.
What we really need to be saved from is our limited view of what God really is!
How do we raise our awareness to be closer to God? The most common methods include self-denial to various degrees, prayer or meditation, rituals and ceremonies, praise, sacrifice, tithe and non-attachment, sensory deprivation or over stimulation, study and quiet contemplation, "walk-about", trance, bondage, drugs, sex, music, spinning and dancing. There are almost as many ways to get closer to God as there are unique individual consciousnesses.
If God is everything, then all paths DO lead to God.
Differences that arise are due to the fact that they were written in different languages by people with a different culture in a different time period. What this all seems to point to is that God wants us to be more like God: Selfless, egoless, giving, creating, fearless, without worry, concern, need or judgment. This is the way we should act in order for our consciousness to be at the level where God dwells.
Then why does God let bad things happen?
We always say "God spared us" or "God is testing our faith", but forces of nature such as tornadoes, earthquakes and other "Acts of God" never seem to hunt any one person out. In the story of Sodom and Gomorrah, God needed just one good person to keep him from destroying the city. God does not seem to show us the same courtesy. If God loves us and accepts us with all of our flaws then it is safe to assume that God is not punishing us. This would mean that God has expectations or requirements for us. Being Omnipotent means that any and all expectations are met at all times. To say that God has any expectations is to make God less than perfect! Bad things happen to everyone, not just good people. God does not care that bad things happen because care and concern are the same thing as worry and fear. Worry and fear are things that an omnipotent being does not do. What makes bad things bad is OUR perceptions of them up to and including the fear of death.
Is it a "bad" thing to die?
Most religions speak of an afterlife or eternity of something, usually a punishment or a reward. The punishment is eternal separation from God, usually in a place that leaves a lot to be desired. We have ruled out punishment as something that an omnipotent being would do, so what is the reward? Oneness with God. We are not being punished by God, we are living in fear which is separation from God. Our "sins", will, ignorance, ego, personality, perception, and physical bodies are the things that make us separate from God. We are not aware. That is hell. Death is Death. Not a good or a bad thing. Our death is not something that an omnipotent being would worry about if there is no death.
So we can do whatever we want?
We are doing what we want to do! It just isn't making us happy, but, you see, God doesn't care about that. We suffer consequences because of our fears. We need to expand our awareness and therefore change what we want. Bad things do happen to people that are "nice" because nice people are concerned with other people's feelings. This concern for others is further separation from God which "mean" people do not have. This does not mean that God wants us to be "mean". God does not want or need anything. "Mean" people want instant gratification, power and control which also makes them separate from God. This separation manifests in their lives because they are controlled by their possessions, they lose control and become powerless at some point.
Knowledge of this could be used for selfish reasons!
The people that desire power over others are those that will abuse it. This is painfully obvious when you see the state that the world is in currently. Those in power seem intent on keeping things the way that they are. This also includes limiting our awareness. We are constantly manipulated through fear by the powers that be. Many if not all of our elite rulers are occultists. Occult does not mean "Satanic" or "Evil". Occult means "Hidden". The idea that we are all God is not a "New Age" concept. It is a suppressed, hidden or "Occult" concept. This knowledge has been and is being used for the wrong reasons. This is one reason why the world is in the state that it is.
