As long as those 'Christians' who insist that God is a male, personal identity who sacrificed his biological son in order to save humanity from the folly of its sinful ways continue to separate themselves from God in such a manner, they will not make the effort to seek union with the Source of all life, consciousness and energy now, while they are in the material plane of existence and will wait for death and resurrection in 'heaven' with the hope that God is all-forgiving. Well, in their case anyway. After all, they think, as Christians, they have a monopoly on God.
If they believe that Jesus died for their sins 2000 years ago, then surely, in the knowledge of the atrocities of Nazi Germany, Stalin's Russia and Pol Pot's Cambodia, to say nothing of atomic bombs, the sacrifice has been in vain. If God's purpose was to sacrifice the Lord Jesus for our 'redemption' He must have been appalled by the atrocities of the 'Christian' church with its torture and burning of heretics, 'witches' and non-believers. Some redemption!
Jesus' death on the cross fulfilled the Messianic prophecy (which was all-important) and showed, by example, the transfiguration and immortality of Man. "I come to bring you eternal life. And life in abundance."
Man is born sinless and in a state of grace. Unless of course you believe that Mankind is not the Temple of God, and that Jesus lied when he taught that the Spirit of God dwells within us. In the light of that understanding we are truly man-gods, for Man can never be separated from God, nor God from Man. Man can, and does, deny God, but God can never deny Man for it knows Man as an aspect of its own Divinity.
Divine love is non-judgemental. Divine love knows no duality, no right or wrong, no good or evil. Just Being. God is the 'Isness' of all creation, the oneness of all consciousness. It can never be defined, other than to say it is 'All That Is' and more than the sum of all its parts. To say that God is 'love' is to separate God from all other emotions like anger, hatred and fear. Only we think in terms of Good and Evil. The Source of All knows that not one aspect of itself can be corrupted or destroyed in Truth. Death is the great, man-made illusion.
The Source of All may never be known in its entirety, but it can, and must, be experienced in all levels of Being. To reduce God to the physical level of male-personality as we know it on this small grain of sand called Earth is like a frog trying to conceive the great ocean from the standards of its life's experience in a well.
That which we call 'God' is not the Alpha and the Omega. God is eternal; and eternity knows no beginnings and no endings. When we think of birth as a beginning, and death as an ending, we are in delusion.
