Black Spirituality Religion : WHAT IS GOD?

Here's a little something just to marinate over.
Taken From the Book Seth Speaks; Chapter 14
Stories of The Beginning and The Multidimensional God

Only a portion of your entire identity is "presently" familiar to you, as you know.
Therefore, when you consider the question of a supreme being, you imagine a male
personality with those abilities that you yourselves possess, with great emphasis upon
qualities you admire. This imagined god has therefore changed throughout your
centuries, mirroring man's shifting ideas of himself.
God was seen as cruel and powerful when man believed that these were desirable
characteristics, needed particularly in his battle for physical survival. He projected
these upon his idea of a god because he envied them and feared them. You have cast
your idea of god, therefore, in your own image.

In a reality that is inconceivably multidimensional, the old concepts of God are
relatively meaningless. Even the term, a supreme being, is in itself distortive, for you
naturally project the qualities of human nature in it. If I told you that God was an idea,
you would not understand what I meant, for you do not understand the dimensions in
which an idea has its reality, or the energy that it can originate and propel. You do not
believe in ideas in the same way that you believe in physical objects, so if I tell you that
God is an idea, you will misinterpret this to mean that God is less than real - nebulous,
without reality, without purpose, and without motive action.

Now your own physical image is the materialization of your idea of yourself within
the properties of matter. Without the idea of yourself, your physical image would not be;
yet often it is all you are aware of. The initial power and energy of that idea of yourself
keeps your image alive. Ideas, then, are far more important than you realize. If you will
try to accept the idea that your own existence is multidimensional, that you dwell
within the medium of infinite probabilities, then you may catch a slight glimpse of the
reality that is behind the word "god," and you may understand why it is almost
impossible to capture a true understanding of that concept in words.

God, therefore, is first of all a creator, not of one physical universe but of an infinite
variety of probable existences, far more vast than those aspects of the physical universe
with which your scientists are familiar. He did not simply then send a son to live and
die on one small planet. He is a wart of all probabilities.



God does not exist apart from or separate from physical reality, but exists within it and as a wart of it, as he exists within and as a wart of all other systems of existence.

I can appreciate this. If they get rid of the word "god" and "he", I would contend we are evolving.

God and he are being used because of mankind's concept of a supreme being. As you will see, Seth says in the first sentence (you imagine a male personality as the supreme being) and the second he says again (this imagined God
has therefore changed throughout your centuries, mirroring man's shifting ideas of himself). This is an imagined being!

A few paragraphs down on the same page he also states;
Your Christ figure represents, symbolically, your idea of God and his relationships.
There were three separate individuals whose history blended, and they became known
collectively as Christ – hence many discrepancies in your records. These were all males

because at that one time of your development, you would not have accepted a "female counterpart".
So, I would say that one can have an appreciation for the material content and at the same time understand the context in which those two words are being used. Don't throw away the money because the wallet has a few small holes in it.
