There is not much alternatives. If he speaks to us directly through veils whether the guides or Angels, Quran shows we will accuse the veils of being evil sorcerers or demons, possessing us. If he opens doors to ascension and we are not ready and hateful, it will just make us more rebellious and accuse the signs of not being proofs but of evil. This is what evil people think of Angels that punish them in the grave, they can't see they are God's forces and from his light.
The alternative is he forces the proof but then there is no room to love God out of free-will at that point.
He spread his revelations all over the earth. The Quran is not the only divine book. Every culture has a breath from God and enough light to see his truth.
Just as majority of Muslims do not see the truth of Quran - only a minority does - I'm guessing same is true of most holy books out there.
You can hypothetically imagine what you want, but scripture + middle man can work to provide guidance. The only thing it's complicated is usually you can go to the middle-men for miracles. Now they have disappeared and the last one his hidden from public. But if you ask God and make yourself ready, the Imam of time, the Mahdi, might show up to you and if you ask for miracles, he will provide by God's permission. Who knows?
But if you are full of envy and hatred towards the best exalted souls and envy them, and feel you don't need God's guidance out of self-deception, that's up to you and on you.
You greatly Underestimate God!!!!!
God allows free choices because that is the only way true learning can happen. What you don't realize is that God is teaching you everything you need to know by showing you what your free choices really mean. When you understand your choices, intelligence will choose those choices with the best results. The real genius behind God's system is that it teaches everyone Unconditional Love. After all, in time, the kiddies will realize that is what they really want returning.
You might look at this world and see a mess, however look beyond the surface. In a multilevel classroom, some things returning are not pretty especially when one has already learned that lesson.
It's not a matter of will. It's a matter of Understanding. When one really Understands all sides of a thing, there are some choices that are no longer viable choices one can make.
Some people assume holy books come from God. Holy books are all created by mankind. They reflect mankind more than anything else. Sure, most holy books do contain some goodness. On the other hand, goodness is not all they are teaching. This alone proves they do not come from God.
God will teach His children regardless of any Beliefs they might have. It comes down to WHAT IS!!
Religion is mankind's attempt to Understand God. Religion is a catalyst that brings so many of mankind's problems to the surface so they can be dealt with. After all, when one thinks one has God's backing, one can justify anything.
Our choices show God and the world what we know and what we need to learn. Our lessons are based upon our choices.
That's what I see. It's very clear!!
