Organization, Combination and Cooperation (Man)
Recently in Organization, Combination, and Cooperation (Salvation) we Started to examine the meaning of the Salvation that the Holy Bible alludes to. In that time, we remembered two very important details which pertain to this Salvation. First, we remembered that God is a God of the living; therefore, Salvation is for the preservation of the Living Man. And secondly, we learned that attaining the state of Salvation is a common effort. And since it is a common effort, it must be brought into existence through the mutual cooperation and participation of God, Messias, and Man.
After the recollection of those facts, we passed into Organization, Combination, and Cooperation (God). And in that time, we recalled that there are two functions which God completes to contribute to the process of Salvation. First, God functions as a teacher and instructor. And as a teacher and instructor, he gives two sets of instructions and guidance to all who enter into the universe. The first set of instructions deals with the universal rules and laws which govern this world, These rules and laws include all: scientific laws, civil laws, international laws, natural laws, etc The second set of instructions, directs One on how to recognize, and manage the various trials, pitfalls, and obstacles which occur as life progresses. These include: deaths, temptations, wars, famines, etc During this time, we also remembered that these directions are transmitted in four ways: traditionally by word of mouth or example, literally through scriptures or writings, existentially through the reality which surrounds One, and through instinct. Finally, we were reminded that the second of the two functions which God fulfills in the process of Salvation involves generation. God functions as a generator. And in that function, his responsibility is to multiply all physical expressions which occur in reality; then, for the world to see, he generates the results or products. Today, let us continue by recalling the function of Man in this process of Salvation.
It is important that we remember that as One who is physically engaged in this high stakes game of life, Mans responsibility lies in the field of physical expressions. This means that his function involves the initiation of actions and reactions in response to his physical environment. These responses may range anywhere from physical confrontation to inaction. And, depending on his environment, these responses may be classified under two categories: First, they may be classified as appropriate and fitting. This means that the initiated action or reaction is in agreement or accord with the current environment.
Secondly, they may be classified as unsuitable or inappropriate. This then means, that these initiated actions or reactions are not in tune or agreement with the current environment. For example; Let us say that a man mistakenly kills his neighbors animal. Now in his anger, that neighbor whose animal was killed, retaliates and kills another one of his neighbors animals. In this example, this reaction would be classified as unsuitable or inappropriate. This is because this reaction is not in agreement with the situation and with what is lawful. The neighbor whose animal was killed in retaliation, was not involved in that initial action. Therefore, that reaction of retaliation, which may be fitting and appropriate in another situation, is not in agreement or accord with that current environment.
To correctly and effectively engage his environment, Man must first perform a very important action: He must wake up and become aware of God. Since God is the supreme or ultimate reality, Man cannot fully function in accordance with his environment without acknowledging his existence. Man cannot escape this reality. So, One may ask, how can Man become aware of God? The answer to that question is quite simple: In order to become aware of God, One must first become conscious of real events, entities, and states of affairs. This does not mean events, entities, and states of affairs as many have been taught that they should be. But events, entities, and states of affairs as they really are. In other words, One must become an objective observer of this world. They must leave all of their biases and prepossessions at the altars of their desired worlds. And at the same time, they must remove those rose-colored glasses and don the spectacles of reality. This is because reality is not based on what you want or expect it to be. God is; therefore, reality is. Your desire for reality to fit some preconceived notion or doctrine will not force it into that mold. Your belief that God does not exist will not forcibly remove him from existence. For example;
Man is free to believe that crocodiles do not exist. And through that belief, they are even allowed to swim in crocodile infested waters. But no matter how hard they believe and desire that belief to be truth, that wish will not transform the reality which clearly states that crocodiles do exist. Just because they are not aware of what a crocodile may look like is not an indication that it does not exist. Therefore, whether they like it or not, while swimming in that water, they must act and react to crocodiles in a manner which is in agreement with reality. But if they choose to insist that the crocodile does not exist; then, their actions and reactions will reflect this dangerous mindset. And by reflecting this view, they through their actions will eventually pay for that obstinacy.
So as to bring himself into conformity with reality, once awake, Man may choose to readjust his expressions. This means that if he chooses, man may elect to bring his actions and reactions into correspondence with God. But in order to accurately and correctly fulfill this act of readjustment, Man must listen to the instructions and guidance which God provides and has provided. If you will remember, these are those transmissions which are present to help Man recognise and manage the various trials, pitfalls, and obstacles which occur in life. As we are aware, God has provided five choices which Man may select from: First, to help him adjust, Man may choose to use the transmissions which were left by his predecessors. This means that he can choose to use the oral traditions of his elders as a guide. Secondly, he may choose to use the literal transmissions which have been compiled throughout the ages. These include Scriptures and all relevant books of history and science. Thirdly, if he does not have access to any oral or written communications, he may choose to use those transmissions which are found in the world. These transmissions may include newscasts, periodicals, and all relevant and reliable sources of previously unknown information. Fourthly, he may choose to adapt by using his own transmission or instincts. Finally, he may choose to use a combination of all the transmissions.
By solely relying on any one of these transmissions, Man dramatically decreases his chance of success or preservation. But by choosing to correctly and faithfully apply all of those transmissions which come from God, Man increases his chances of overcoming the various trials, pitfalls, and obstacles which occur during play. And he who chooses this way, is destined to increase his chances of preservation and salvation in the End.
Finally, both Man and God have a part to play in the process of Salvation. God Starts the process by giving instructions and guidance. And with the completion of Gods action, Man may continue the process by listening and following those messages. These instructions must be followed in accord with reality. And though some would like it to be, Salvation is not an exclusive asset. All yearn for its benefits. Therefore, God has made it available for all who are engaged in this high stakes game of life. It is a reward for any who have the determination to pursue it. As evidenced in the story of Noah, when both the Creator and Man are working in tandem, the result is success against the various trials, pitfalls, and obstacles which will inevitably come. This action will translates into salvation or preservation against the destruction and failure which eventually arise from wars, famines, deceptions, diseases, temptations, etc Therefore those who choose to heed and build on Gods foundation, the same shall increase his chances of achieving salvation. And those who choose not to awaken and continue that process, the same shall receive the penalties for their obstinacy.
A man may choose to awake and readjust himself to reality, or he can choose to remain in that current state, which has been well adjusted and prepared for the grave.
Amos 3:3Can two walk together, except they be agreed?
Isaiah 28:15Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
1 John 5:8And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.
