the dazzling delivery
What of people who are charismatic and not aware of spiritual matters? Charisma is an art, an action art and can only be rated on delivery not its' subject or goal. A good vocalist attracts listeners via their presentation, and their projection. Charisma hints of a certain mass which attracts other similar bodies. This attraction is unseen, being a part of the abstract or spiritual. They draw them into their orbit by their mass which can be compared to a greater, denser quality radiating from the inside of their spirit. Charisma is not subject, it is verb, it is action. If something is presented well it is good art no matter what the subject may be. This mass must be some quality of belief. Secularists might call it will power. But will power comes from within, its' origin is limited by being from within, as compared to belief which is powered from a source without. If we can link up with a power source without we are limited only by the source. Sources can be judged by their fruit, but also by their leaves which tell us what the fruit will be like. In these cases we must be able to see the whole story or make mental moves like a chess player. We must see several steps ahead and while in this viewpoint, not be dazzled by delivery.
The title of this blog, God is the Spiritual Personification of Existence, is based on the first definition perception of ancient writers in the dawn of our known history.
Today's Supreme Being is not the original definition. First report accepted was God defined Himself as Existence. "I am that I am." He did not create existence, He is the fountainhead of Existence. Therefore, God is not only understood to be a Spirit, but also as the spiritual 'personification' of existence. This is a definition, not a theory.
There are both concrete and abstract forces, the seen and the unseen, such as gravity. There are spirits in bottles, spirits in words, spirits in us. The spirit animates everything, from gravity to emotion, as well as semantically. This blog is about defining the usually undefined term God, not religion, but what is meant by the term God.
There is one blog touching on religion, Church and Faith Pulpit Rock, about Christian atheism found in many churches, which themselves quite often have less to do with God or even religion for that matter, than they do with social entertainment.
The blog linked below, Specific Theory of Existence, takes us to essay attempts suggested by former atheists who are sensitive to atheist thought. They are exploring views relating to seen and unseen physics, the known unknown, with the unknown not yet known.
Other blogs, like Memory Stones about cemeteries, touch on other subjects of passing interest. That link and others can be found below. They are hosted by Spencer Corkum for the Sunset Strollers and the QuokeBlokes. They are not carved in 'stone' but may be continuously edited and updated. Davin Paralee, representing the Paraclete, is Editor in Charge.
All things seen come from the unseen and will return there. Since we know so little of all that can be known, in order to make a decision now it must be made in faith because we are deciding without all the facts. There are those who wish to survive the falling away of the body and those who desire slipping into oblivion which is a destruction of that which existed. This too is a spirit and cannot die.
Generalities speak to generalities and specifics to specifics. To intertwine the two is jumping categories, and a fallacy in logic.
An example of what a man says is an illustration of his argument, but it is not proof.
