spiritual struggle defining words

Spiritual struggle under the rug
I see it mentioned in the Bible about a vast struggle going on between principalities, as Paul put it in his letters, continuing to this day. 

Breaking Free of God
When I recognize God I am indicating I am not God myself. If I do not recognize God then I am telling you I think I am myself my own God and the suggestion is everyone had better toe the mark if they do not want to be cancelled by my culture for not following the acceptably proper view of its' consensus.
Since my body is deteriorating, in order to survive, my spirit must rule my body, or my body will rule my spirit. 

All around us spiritual forces are in mortal combat animating those inhabited by them to define words with their particular agendas and to recruit others by defining their words for them. All groups struggle with each other to survive. The intention is to dominate all other groups that might threaten their view. This is, after all, their justification for existence.

Since the truth cannot be told by those who know, everyone persuades themselves, but not all define their terms. For instance, I define money, and words also, as mediums of exchange, either of stored labor or ideas. I define politics as a struggle between the individual in utopian groups, largely characterized as dressed up gossip. I define God as the spiritual personification of existence. These are just my definitions, not theories.  Others have their own definitions. I would say that most do not seem to have any, accepting other's definitions unaware.

Every opinion, outlook, observation, and viewpoint is a theory, and often hearsay, so it requires faith by their particular believers because not all the facts are known in order to know for a certainty. Time is the reason why the truth cannot be proved for absolute certainty in the seen. It is only proved to each person's satisfaction. This in turn is why we are forced to take everything on faith, because we are presently so strongly linked to the seen world  This further explains way it is retold by the ancients that God is only pleased by faith,  and by inference, not by proof. 

The more facts I learn also tells me that there are even more facts that I did not know not previously known to me. There are now known questions I did not know that I did not know previously. One has to know the questions before they can work on the answers. Each answered question burdens us with even more questions generated by the answers we only just discovered. Believe me, we cannot catch up to God. It seems to me God has everything rigged due to prior knowledge.

So my knowledge of my ignorance expands even as my knowledge expands. This indicates there is no end in sight either now or next because my concept of time only exists in a comparative state. It has been said our seen universe is expanding. So are the unseen answers to questions we all have yet to discover.

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.

The man with an experience is never at the mercy of the man with a theory, even if it is his own. The Spirit deep within speaks only to each one of us and does not tell us anything about others, or what they are to think or do. We each speak the words we are told by our spirit which cannot be held back, by this our witness is revealed. Words are the fruit of whatever spirit they describe. Words are powerful, they reveal the spirit that drives them. Passersby are welcome to comment in the same spirit as the content posted on this blog.
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.
