Creavolution: the volition to create

[Gottservant]

Creavolution, is in part a study of the meaning of God's desire to Create, specifically over a protracted period of time, as an act of art, in accordance with the scripture that we are His workmanship.

Relevant questions are: Why does God choose to create?
For example, when God chooses to create why does he not just create his Son?
Why does God choose to keep creating?
How does what God creates differ from creation to creation?
When does what God creates find it hard to keep up with what He is creating?
How do you get in the vein of creating consistently?
How do you harnass natural command of nature in order to create?
How do you leverage control of natural forces in order to shape what you create?
Why do you choose to keep creating when you can just create once off?
What is a lifelong commitment to creating?

Scientifically, you might ask:
How much creavolution did it take for God to create Eden?
How often did God intervene as a function of creavolution in creating Eden?
How much did God vary His creavolution in creating Eden?
When did God show lesser creavolution in creating Eden? When more?
How long did it take for God's creavolution to come to a rest?
How will God's creavolution begin again, for the sake of the New Heaven and the New Earth?

A creavolution, is anything that is not limited to a single creation. This includes, a series of books, a series of television shows, a series of movies, a series of songs, a series of albums, a series of photos, etc. The distinction between creating once off and creating many times is important scripturally, as God labours hard to protect what He creates, not so that what He creates may do nothing, but that what He creates may create all the more.

This is mature.

You may like to ask such things as:
What is my creavolution?
Where is my creavolution taking me?
What part does my cross have to play in my creavolution?
Is there irony in how my creavolution ends up crucifying me?
Is the irony lost on God?
How can I accelerate my creavolution?
What hindrances are there to my creavolution? What doubts do I have to contend with?
What aids are there to my creavolution? What confidence do I have to advance by?

Creavolution is not an attempt to say:
-that we change archetypal creature designations over generations
-that we came from monkeys
-that we mutate
-that we develop special powers from mutating

Creavolution is an attempt to say:
-we have many good works to do
-we have many reasons to remain consistent
-we have much influence over what God has given us to be stewards of
-we have a long term commitment to make, to being as creative as God has enabled us by His Son's Peace to be and this should be reflected in the way we look at our creative work

I welcome your good will and discussion.

If god were to continue to intervene in our sinful world He would die or we would, because the two cannot co-exist.
It would also foul up any scientific experiments because the results would not be consistent.
Modern science was built on the Christian premise that God has only spiritual influence on our sinful world,
and no direct creative physical influence at all.

Sounds like an awefully weak and pathetic view of God. So you think Jesus was lying when he says in John 5:17

“My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I too am working.”

?

Not as a carpenter. Jesus retired from that vocation as well
after it has suited His purpose. But as God, both persons do
what needs to be done to this very day.

Well God did intervene in our sinful world in the person of Jesus Christ, and he did indeed die. Although I'm not sure that's what you were actually referring to.

It would also foul up any scientific experiments because the results would not be consistent.

Not really sure why that would be the case.

Modern science was built on the Christian premise that God has only spiritual influence on our sinful world,
and no direct creative physical influence at all.

Modern science was not built on that premise, here's a handy listen to a discussion about the scientific method - BBC Radio 4 - In Our Time, The Scientific Method (although it may not be avaliable in your locale)

yes, I agree, including the work of using evolution to create. However, you contradict yourself. You said earlier that God cannot intervene in the world, then a couple posts later you say he can. Which is it?

The word "Evolution" means nothing more than change. I agree the world,
and even DNA, is engineered to change.

The Son and the Father seem to be able to "work" only through the Spirit.
Beyond that, physical changes in our world can only be altered by use
of spiritual influence. That is why "Science" works now. We can observe events,
write them down, and expect the same results the next time.

If God intervened, (e.g., the changing of DNA in organisms) then science
could not get consistent research results.

It's important to know that learning institutes were not as secular as today.

Creavolution, is in part a study of the meaning of God's desire to Create, specifically over a protracted period of time, as an act of art, in accordance with the scripture that we are His workmanship.

Relevant questions are: Why does God choose to create?

The council of his own good and perfect will.

For example, when God chooses to create why does he not just create his Son?

Jesus Christ was always the Son of God, are you sure your a Christian?

Why does God choose to keep creating?

The council of His good and perfect will.

How does what God creates differ from creation to creation?

Maybe it has something to do with his purpose in creating.

When does what God creates find it hard to keep up with what He is creating?

The question is incoherent.

How do you get in the vein of creating consistently?

I usually put on some music but that's just me.

How do you harnass natural command of nature in order to create?

God created nature, he does not need to harness anything to create.

How do you leverage control of natural forces in order to shape what you create?

Omnipotence

Scientifically, you might ask:
How much creavolution did it take for God to create Eden?

Six days

How often did God intervene as a function of creavolution in creating Eden?

Once

How long did it take for God's creavolution to come to a rest?

There's no such word and God rested on the seventh day

How will God's creavolution begin again, for the sake of the New Heaven and the New Earth?

It will happen at the end of the Tribulation if that's what your asking

What is my creavolution?

A clutch phrase.

Where is my creavolution taking me?

In circles

What part does my cross have to play in my creavolution?

If you are a disciple and believe in living what you believe your cross to bear is the same as all believers.

Is there irony in how my creavolution ends up crucifying me?

It's a silly little made up controversy secular clerics use to belittle people of faith, nothing more.

How can I accelerate my creavolution?

It's called selective breeding or genetic engineering.

What hindrances are there to my creavolution? What doubts do I have to contend with?

It's not doubts as much as who you worship as Creator.

What aids are there to my creavolution? What confidence do I have to advance by?

You would seem to be left to your own devices.

What kind of questions are that, doesn't even look like you are Christian, god created every thing as a sign and gave us mind as well to see and think of it, that how amazing is the creation so much arranged in a perfect system. All these proof to existence of god almighty.
Haven't you heard and read what ever he want he will say be and it's.
To believe in god almighty only watch your self in the mirror, look at your eyes, your hands your face and whole your body and see how beautiful human being created and mostly our brain to think , research and discover all our question which will not direct us towards saying sinfull words.
I hope I haven't disrespect.
If you are a Muslim so. Would answer you from Quran but, Muslims and Christians won't ask such questions

We have a long term commitment to make, to being as creative as God has enabled us by His Son's Peace to be and this should be reflected in the way we look at our creative work.

We don't have the ability to Create.

But its fun to mold and work with what we have to work with.
