I do not label myself as a christian for christians in my view falsly interpret the bible due to ministers and false prophets. Let me now give you an overview of my spiritual philosophy pertaining to God and magick. One most also believe in the old and new testamennts in the bible but only to a certain extent. It is evident in the magickal world that spirits like satan and other demons and angels exist. Which so happen to be mentioned in the bible. Now this is how you label God and his charecteristics along with what has been created. Its simple John1-3 All things were made by him and without him was anything made that was made. Isaiah44:6 I am the first and I am the last and beside me there is no God. Psalms 5:4 For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickednes, Nor shall evil dwell with You. Romans 8:9 But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, id so be that the spirit of God dwell in you.
Now you can have your own God wether it be an image, a spirit, another person, or even yourself. But the fact is that the one God that is above all names does not dwell with a sinful mind. One must be of a sinless nature and in tune with the God of the bible. Which is very hard. Based on my experience. There have been times when I tried to be perfect and sinless as much as possible. Because I wanted to experience more of God. But I failed and I went farther away from God. I still communicate with God verbaly but he no longer touches me the way he used to. But I still try now and than. I asked God to help me deal with my sins to take them away from me. But he WONT. One must will to be a good man he wont do it for you. The church would make you to believe that with a prayer God forgets your sins which is true. But than they say that God magicaly causes you to sin no more which is not true. Sure the holy spirit helps IF God gives it to you. But if you lose and offend that Holy spirit your in really deap trouble. Which is why God is usually reluctant do give it to you.
So you have to accept that the true God is above all the other Gods in the world. As evident with King Solomon in the lesser and greater keys of Solomon. he clearly acknowleges that the God in the bible is the most high. And it is that same God that granted him power over the demons. For in Genesis he gives man over all the beast of the field and all the fowls of the air. Now don't get me wrong God is omnipresent everywhere everytime. But to say that God is more intimate with every soul and that he is like a dad pardening all of man's sin is total opposite of his nature. Dwelling within the soul of every man I don't think so. Though your lesser God whatever it may be than that may be the true case.
I know that the below won't change anything because you've already been touched by the essence of Jehova, and won't listen to what I have to say; but i'll ask for you to just kindly view my perception of "God".
The true God to me is not dark or light, not good or evil, not male or female, he and she is all and every. He and she is the universe and all other universes, he and she is what we are. I am black you are white, you are good I am evil, I am white you are black, you are bad I am good, regardless, we are one, and we fullfill the "all and nothing".
To this world what seems to be a "sin" may not in other dimensions, other worlds. Infact, to you what may be a sin, may not to me, or to others of different perceptions.
Now I may say that I beleive the "ONE" is what he/she is, but don't take my word for it, because i'll be honest with you, I DONT KNOW!
And that is the best explanation. But if you are going to say this or that is a sin and thus "the god" which is also "your god" will not tolerate "false behaviour?"
So are we the only living beings in this world? Is the ONE AND ONLY only concentrated on us? what makes us so special? are we like demi-gods?
See this is one of the problems we have when faith and logic collide.
To be all and nothing means to be beyond sin, beyond good and evil, something fathomless of our minds. And for the record, I don't see the one and only as anything I can even imagine with my mind.
I'm sorry I would've believed what you said above, had it been years ago, but I don't any longer, I have begun to doubt everything and replace it with logic.
If I am to burn in hell, so be it, i'll burn with pride and not ignorance.
