I say nothing that you do not already know, just as there is nothing that has not always been yours/ours already (this truth is an absolute as much as God is an absolute, as much as you are an absolute (don't let them become a path of a serpent, or a slow climb up babel) and beyond the labor of thought to be). There is no one less or more, all are of God; all things are of God, as much as we are that Seed, as much as he has been made all things to us as to who we are having always been in him. Don't let the words become an image in your grove that you have to tear down.
In writing to someone who is just beginning to seek God (without any images yet to deal with) ... about the word God ...
The word God does not appear in the original language of the Bible, and as far as words go it is a relatively knew one and decidedly European . The Bible uses words such as Yahweh, Elohim, Ho Theos, or Ho Kurios etc. ...the word’s only surviving non-Germanic relative is Sanskrit hu. This form appears in the Rig Veda (oldest Hindu scriptures [as] puru-hutas, ‘much invoked,’ epithet of the rain-and-thunder god Indra. (To get back to the Bible) Adam names everything (think of scientists every time they find something new), the reason being that everything (to man) must be quantified which makes everything relative to the one it is being quantified by. If I were to sum up the word as to what it means I would have to say it is the self existing one (one not e or affected by cause and effect), everything we know in the realm of matter has a beginning and an end (though quantum mechanics will greatly change the way we perceive not only the bodies we inhabit as consciousness but the state the universe/multi-verse (dimensional) exists in), even the universe itself is believed to be finite, at least in the state we see it now. But don't take me wrong ... I believe in God, (for the lack of a better word) who is my Father as he is yours, I believe Jesus was the son of God (son being a word that depicts a truth in picture form as part and parcel of the language of God that is written into the very fabric of the universe itself which we in one form are the words (a thing that defines something) of) and therefore God, but I also believe this about you, as Paul had said to and about those who most Christians would consider heathen (including himself in this), or at best unbelievers, that in him we live and move and have our being. In the language of God a tree, a star, a moon, a woman, a river, a sea, mountains, thunder reveal truths that are relative to us in this journey inwards into the understanding of who we are, both individual and collectively. The path of life is not outside of you, it is in you, and why so few find it, being that the distractions outside of us are many, some good, some evil.
What is in a word that we do not put their ourselves through perception ... how many words does it take to describe one word ... To throw it out there ... when Jesus was talking to Nicodemus saying you must be born again, he was not saying something new, but something that the scriptures (that Nicodemus believed could not be broken) constantly spoke about in different forms, but for Nicodemus, he could not (because of his soul) get past the image of the natural truth of what it means to be born (which born again Jesus likened to an earthly truth Nicodemus could not receive, as Paul had likened the Corinthians as being in this same state (though they were "born again").
In some ways what infinity is to the family of math’s is what the word God is to the consciousness of mankind, which is why every culture has a God, and each one of these God’s born out in the perception of one man as the truth of who God is, which you will find (like all things) always to be progressive. It is inherit in the nature of man to search for what he himself is. To be born again (which affords us to see something new), is simply to be born of an image within, rather than the one given to us by the image that is without, but then there is the process of entering into what you see which is where the road on the journey is full tar pits, sinking sand, of hills, mountains and valleys, and rivers, wells and streams, which all relate to our soul as pictures of truth of this kingdom and the entering into it through reasoning with God. It is interesting to note that Hagar was the first one to name God (she is of the lineage that depicts the natural seed, or our flesh, while the spiritual seed names the place where God meets them, rather than name God … because of the journey (though the two seeds become one in Noah through a baptism). These two seeds/inheritances are the one's Jesus made one, firstly in himself by saying the son of man is the son of God, but this did not come to him without a cross picked up, which in one form is symbolism (to the extreme) of the pouring out of our soul, or the denying of the self-image generated by what the Bible terms as another, or not your own.
Once bitten by the serpent one must follow the anecdotes prescribed.
