Vindicta mea dicit Dominus


Vindicta mea dicit Dominus
As a child, whilst still alive in the flesh I was taught of the punishments and rewards of God, as if he were an omnipresent parent in constant watch over all individuals waiting to chastise or bless based on our day to day behaviors. Such teachings can appear sound, for the oracles of God are written accordingly, assigning carnal, human tendencies to a God of Spirit and speaking plainly of vengeance, anger and jealousy as if they were a part of our Creator’s very nature. But having died to the flesh in 462 AD, and living thence forward as one in Spirit with the host of heaven, I soon learned this was not so. For God is Spirit and not subject to those impulsive human passions and emotions despite the truth that the oracles of God read otherwise.
For in those oracle’s, as handed down to the great prophets, God spoke downward to our lower state of comprehension, from Spirit to flesh, as parent to child in the carnal language which we in our fallen state would understand. God became to us a jealous God of anger and revenge because that was what our brutish ancestors understood in that primitive age. They would not behave justly toward one another for the love of justice but in fear of a God who would vengefully enforce justice, they would act justly whilst also coming to learn the wisdom of justice. Thus did God humble himself for the sake of our species, becoming a God of anger and revenge so that our ancestors would practice and learn justice. And thus did God also become a God of jealousy, to dissuade our primitive forefathers from straying into the false religions of lifeless idols, human sacrifice, and a host of other such depravities.
But God is not one of revenge, jealousy or other human emotion. God is Spirit, benign and creative in nature, and all knowing of what is is righteous and best for that which he creates. For a man who embraces evil is not assigned punishment by God as a judge does to a thief or a murderer. But rather, a man who embraces evil draws evil unto his own life and shall suffer accordingly, during his temporary life in the flesh, his eternal life in Spirit or both. And a man who embraces charity and grace shall draw that same goodness from other men and from God himself during his time in the flesh, through his eternity in Spirit or both. In either case God does not reward or punish but instead, it is we ourselves who draw good or evil into our lives through our own actions. For what we give of ourselves to the lives of others, whether good or evil is refilled in kind unto our own lives in equal or greater measure.
This precept is an ordinance of our Sovereign God and Creator, who fixed the invisible workings of the universe to respond accordingly to our own behaviours. Not as punishments or rewards as some shall still say, but as guidance and learning that we may evolve wisely, through the experience of trials and errors into the ways of his greater righteousness. For the creation of our species is yet in it’s infancy but by the wisdom of God, as laid down in the reactive workings of good and evil have we already come to forsake the most brutish ways of our forefathers. And in ages yet to come, through learned wisdom rather than cruel punishment, shall we continue our journey to the new Eden, to the union with God enjoyed by our first parents.

Falsa Mali Natura in Carna

Falsa Mali Natura in Carna Since before the days of my bodily life there have been notions lasting long through the centuries, even into your current age of flesh bearing an inherently evil nature. It is a false notion but the falsehood is not apparent whilst still living in the flesh. For during the time the time of our bodily life, the temptations of evil wrongfully appear to be born of the the flesh. The adulterous lust we may carry for the wife of another man seems satisfied through an encounter of the flesh so it appears that the sin of adultery is of fleshy origins. But in truth this sin is born of a lost and loveless spirit, in need of connection to another. The sin of adultery is acted out through the flesh but originates within the spirit. Likewise, the sin of greed appears satisfied by the excessive accumulation of wealth at the expense of others. But this sin also is born of a spirit which believes it’s own need to be greater than others. This sin also is visible thro

Aeternum Creaturae

We are taught as children that the creation of the cosmos with the life therein was a finished matter in a time of six days. In my age, some sixteen hundred years past this seemed apparently true. In your own age, with the knowledge of men so greatly increased it becomes apparent that though the works of creation were set in motion in those first six days, the ongoing creation of the cosmos and all life therein has never ceased. For the cosmos began with the sudden burst of the first particle of matter into the surrounding Spirit of God. But the outward momentum of that burst has never ceased, and so the outward expansion caused by the burst has also never ceased. The birth of the cosmos is yet unending. There shall be more universe tomorrow than exists today. For the creation of the universe is not a done thing, but is fused with the eternal Spirit of God and as such, the process of creation is inherently eternal itself. So it is with our own creation, for we are not the same s

Causa Homini Dei Creando

Causa Homini Dei Creando There is purpose to the making of our species, written in the oracles of Isaiah that the purpose of man is to give glory to God. Through faith is this done, each man to his best degree for by prayer, grace and good works can our God be glorified by each individual. But as one who now dwells in the host of heaven I know these things are only first steps which lead to a truer glorification of our God. For whilst alive in the flesh we serve as conduits of God, vessels through which is Spirit more fully enters the material realm. This is the glorification of God as spoken of by the prophet. As a child I was taught correctly that God is everywhere, for his Spirit saturates the cosmos and penetrates all flesh and all matter. God does not need our species to achieve presence in the material realm but the presence which God already has is made greater when thoughtfully chosen by a sentient species such as our own. For the unthinking cosmos are passive and unab
