Here is the thing when I wrote the following text below, I just recently became involved with spirituality and/or Christianity . I worked so hard on writing the text but I am not sure if I can stand by it knowing that a lot of the text is heretical in a plethora of ways. I think I can help redeem the text(t reminds me of the aerial tollhouses) without fully disgarding it.
"THE WORSHIP of our one and eternal, LORD is fundamental in the teachings of Our Church as affirmed in Deuteronomy (6:4-8). And we affirm that the Great Architect of the Universe, Our LORD, God is above existence thus HE is incomprehensible and cannot be seen or heard and encompasses everything without being encompassed. Thus, the church has an immense reluctance to define essential attributes to an indefinable Holy Father. But in the same sense, the revelations of the latter-day holds that the LORD manifests himself through a process of self-unfolding in the subsequent multiplicity of being while maintaining his unity. Through this manifold, the Son (Like the Father, Christ is without cause and or uncreated) and the Holy Spirit are uncreated and celestial with the Father, and they act with the Father in the divine act of engenderment of all that subsists.
Everything which exists besides LORD, He is self-evident and is beyond the material world which substance exists. The Demiurge, God, however, did not create everything individually and all at once, so to speak. One of these creations is a vacuum (overflow from the uncreated substance of the LORD, Elohim) in which the Holy Spirit elects to create heavenly bodies for the evolution of added self-consciousness. This is called emanation (dripping). Emanation has been heavily studied by mystics seeking the path of eternal salvation (In Scripture, Hebrews 10:10 reveals that we are all sanctified by the oblation of the body of Jesus Christ once). It is well known within all of the circles of mystics that Self-consciousness is distinguished in a sacred order, a hierarchical order of comprehension and action approximating as nearly as conceivable to the Divine. The order of hierarchies has a plethora of manifolds with in itself, manifolds that can be distinguished in a trilateral hypostasis, the essence (The uncreated being, nature and substance of God) and energies (God manifesting himself, not his nature but in the things about his nature). The Son (knowledge) and of the Holy Ghost (conscious) are however, personal processions of essences and energy; of the omniscience to unconsciousness deeper than that of the deepest trance condition. Since God is beyond existence, divine hypostasis is unfeasible in essences but it is present in the energies as a mirror, yet the divine still remains as imperceptible. Wholly unknowable in His essence, God wholly reveals in His energies, which yet in no way divided in His inclination into two parts–knowable and unknowable–but denote two different praxes of the divine existence, in the self-consciousness into greater celestial omniscience (GCO). But the LORD is still unified and not of the hypostatic state in the substantial sense of three cosmic forces nor in the personification of knowledge, Jesus Christ. There is an absolute Unity in the Great Architect of the Universe includes that of infinite divisibility. The Trinity, then, to be only not totally exhausted by diffusion into One Divine. Through his grace, he radiates infinite light called Pleroma- in all directions to immeasurable but still to definite distances in the Essences of God. In transfiguration, we are in the divine energies with the entire LORD by nature, yet save only identify of nature. We remain creatures while becoming God by grace, as Christ remained God in becoming man by the Incarnation.
These divine energies, is within all and which makes the possibility of the Trinity to dwell within us all through the promises of Christ. The presents however, is not to be a mere enfoldment of latent germinal possibilities but the presence of divine energies, not of a casual nature; it is incommunicable in essence and no more a presences yielding to essence which by definition incommunicable; but the Trinity dwells in us by designates of that in itself which is communicable--that is to verbally express, by the energies which are prevalent by grace for it is by this name that we know the greater celestial omniscience(GCO) which the Holy Spirit communicates to us. For it is he who has the Spirit, who confers the gift, has at the same time the Son, through whom every gift (a gift that within us all.) and is transmitted to us; he also has the Father, from whom comes every perfect gift(A non-material, massless beings without temporal limits, occupying no space, omniscient, omnipotent, indestructible, immortal and capable of creating anything).In receiving the gift--the deifying energies--one receives at the same time the indwelling of the Holy Trinity--inseparable from its natural energies and present in them in a different manner but none the less truly from that in which it is present in its nature. Those who fail, however, to exercise the blessings and gifts of God, and who follow the dictates of the tempter and of the false prophets and the ensnaring doctrines of the wicked, remain in the bosom of the earth until they are freed from the binding powers of materialism, purified, and assigned to the secret kingdom (Acts 15:20, 29; 21:25 warns about the prostitution/whoring of the soul, not just the body). This explains the ancient, mystical term of earth bound, referring to those who are still enslaved to material temptations for a time after transition.
Instead of contradicting the apathetic interpretation to the truth, these antinomical distinctions is the conservation the mystery, while yet expressing the data of revelation in dogma. Thus, as we have optically discerned in the doctrine of the Trinity, the distinction between the man and the natural world revealed a propensity to represent God as a ‘monad and triad in one’, with the consequence that the ascendance of the unity of the nature over the trinity of the hypostases was evaded, as was the elimination or minimizing of the primordial mystery of the identity-multiplicity. In the same way, the distinction between the essence and the energies is due to the antinomy between the unknowable and the knowable, the incommunicable and the communicable, with which both religious thought and the experience of divine possessions are ultimately faced. These authentic distinctions introduce no ‘composition’ into the divine being; they designate the mystery of God, who is absolutely one according to His nature, absolutely three according to His persons, sovereign and inaccessible Trinity, dwelling in the profusion of glory which is His uncreated light, His eternal Kingdom which all must enter who inherit the deified state of the age to come.
Now, as mentioned before, the Great Architect of the Universe did not create everything individually and all at once and elects to create heavenly bodies for the evolution. This is confirmed in science with the idea of an ever-expanding universe and the theory of the multiversity. In this multiversity, there are seven Dominions in existence and are differentiated by God, within Himself. These Dominions have each an alternate "measure" and rate of vibration and are not dissevered by space or distance, similar to the earth from other planets. They are conditions of issue, of fluctuating thickness and vibration (just like the solids, fluids and gasses of the physical Earth). These Dominions are not instantaneously engendered at the commencement of a day of Manifestation, nor do they last until the end. The transformative plan is helped through five of these Dominions in seven extraordinary epochs of Manifestation, in which departed souls can expiate their sins and achieve spiritual growth by returning/resurrection to earth and cooperating with living people, leading them to fulfill their mission on earth and live in accordance to their conscience(John 3:3). The highest Dominions are created first, and as involution is to slowly carry the life into denser and denser matter for the building of forms, the finer Dominions gradually condense and new Dominions are differentiated within the LORD to furnish the necessary links between Himself and the Dominions which have consolidated. In due time the point of greatest density, the nadir of materiality, is reached. From that point the life begins to ascend into higher Dominions, as evolution proceeds. That leaves the denser Dominions depopulated, one by one. When the purpose has been served for which a particular Dominions was created, God ends its existence, which has become superfluous, by ceasing within Himself the particular activity which brought into being and sustained that Dominion.
The Nine Dominions belong to the lowest of the nine “Cosmic Planes". The Dominions and Cosmic Planes are not one over another in space, but rather the seven Cosmic Planes between enter each other and all the nine Dominions. They are conditions of soul matter, saturating each other, with the objective that God and the other incredible Beings control all aspects of their own domains and domains of more prominent depth than their own, including our authenticity: "in Him we live and move and have our being". Perpetuating from the physical world to the internal macrocosms, God - the "Modeler of the Solar System", the Source and objective of human presence – is found in the most eminent division of the seventh Cosmic Plane: this is His Dominions. With a concrete end goal to follow the commencement point of the Grand Architect of the Universe, one must go to the most elevated of the seven Cosmic Planes: the "Domain of the Supreme Being", who radiated from "The Absolute". The Absolute is unbelievable and, as denotement infers impediment, He might be best portrayed as "Astronomical Being": the "Substratum of Esse".
Now, let’s dive more deeply into the issue of the soul and the way to enter the kingdom of the LORD. With this said, all the religious movements old or new liken man to the children of the Great Architect of the Universe, HaShem (Galatians 3:26) and that as progeny, we were created in his likeness (Gen 1.26–27), indivisible essences inseparable to THE LORD, God. (Deut. 32:9) and lives within us all. (Luke 17:20-21) Nevertheless, as our soul emanates from the Infinite One — the Absolute— eventually to be resurrected in a physical body, the soul undergoes a spiritual journey of life, from dominion to dominion(as mentioned above), leaving a root in each of the worlds, until it is born again fully into the flesh (John 5:24) to fulfill our predestined salvation(The soul is predestined to salvation, but only for those who seek God according to Ephesians 1:4-11 and Acts 13:48). As postulate before, are nine dominions of the spirit, or level of consciousness, relating to the different planes of reality, or manifolds of greater celestial omniscience (GCO) disclosure/covering showed in each of the macrocosms. The soul incarnated within the body is a reflection/energy of the Divine Form (In fact the Gen 2:7 states that God has “breath [or spirit] of life”. This alludes to the fact that man can't be genuinely human, authentically himself, without the Spirit of God.) The energies are coming round the system on man's physical form, unifying the body with the soul. These energies derive from the configuration of the praxis of emanation, which structure the worlds through which soul climbs a spiral stairway of evolution. Thus man includes all of Creation within him, from the loftiest spirituality to the most mundane physicality. But simultaneously, soul reflects the Infinite light of the LORD God from within, which illuminated emanation. Therefore man includes all of Creation within him, from the loftiest spirituality to the most mundane physicality. This is called Grace. Thus, the spiritual monads emanated in successive stages from the unbegotten Father.
Viewed from the perspective that man is a slave to the Grand Architect of the Universe, the stages of evolution in which the soul goes through can be described as five ascending echelons of awareness of, and communion with, Jehovah. These echelons of the soul, however, is not a circular motion in which the soul travels from the lowest to the highest, but rather it is according to the plan of the spiral, in which the journey always returns to the starting point, but on a elevated plane of activity. Individual levels of the Domains of spiritual evolution are called Æons. These Æons constitutes a threefold structure in which spiritual omniscience aggregates into a total of nine such interlocking and mutually participating orders. It is a fact that all living things—mankind, animals, and plants—were souls before any form of life existed upon the earth (Gen. 2:4–5), representing the greatest concealment of the LORD God. By sowing our seeds into the world through providing the Mysteries, through generating art of all forms, through acts of compassion in the world, man will reap spiritual experiences and the insights of greater consciousness, whereby man returns to greater celestial omniscience(GCO), the state reached by the first human ancestors just prior to the Fall.
The journey of the soul begins with a bitter exodus back to earth and completing unaccomplished responsibility through cooperation with earthly people. (Matt. 2:1-12). This stage is called the First Æon, consciousness in the physical body and the physical world. Some have confounded physical consciousness with passive awareness, to the point where it is merely an observation of the facts. On the contrary, First Æon is the essences of the body, and due to it being the essences of the body that the First Æon have full control between itself and the physical universe. The LORD fashioned everything in this world, including the body. In Scripture, God formed Adam's body out of dust from the ground. The soul, the breath of life is the grace of the Holy Spirit, the Giver of Life. (Genesis 2:7). The divine accommodation associated with the Dominion of the First Æon is an acknowledgment of, and submission to, the supreme ascendancy of the Great Architect of the Universe, concretely in reference to the fulfillment of the commandments. Thus, called "compliance to the yoke of Heaven".
The next Dominion that the soul peregrinates to is the Second Æon which is represented by Cherubim and the Garden of Eden. The plane (i.e. level of revelation of the LORD, God) corresponding the Second Æon is the plane of the Vital or Ethereal Body. The principal manifestation of the Second Æon is the realm of emotions, just as the principal movement six planes of emotion (God’s emanation of grace and the plane of Purified Emanation, which also corresponds to the sexual organs and to the Ethereal body)."
"THE WORSHIP of our one and eternal, LORD is fundamental in the teachings of Our Church as affirmed in Deuteronomy (6:4-8).
