Your quote:God determined that we must go through the Messengers since there is no other way to know anything about God.That is what you are doing so that is psychological projection.
I set no rules, and neither do you. God sets the rules.
And here we go again with your game. You speak for God as if you know what God has or needs. You don't know.
You are right. God has no needs, only humans have needs. Humans need what the Messengers reveal and that is why God sends them.
God determined that we must go through the Messengers since there is no other way to know anything about God.
The Messengers do not reflect mankind. They reflect God's will for mankind.
The Messengers are the only ones who understand what God is doing with this world and it's people.
The world is in a mess. Everyone can see that except you. It is starting to get better little by little, but only because God sent Baha'u'llah.
Clearly, all people are not the same. Some people are good and others are evil, and there are shades of gray in between good and evil.
Everyone can see that except you. You have a dreamy notion that all people are the same, which doesn't make any logical sense. You believe that all people are good, but clearly that is not evidenced by the bad and even evil behaviors of some people.
The Messengers are not better than ordinary humans, they are just different. That is why God chose them to communicate to.
That is true. We have free will so we can choose what to believe. There are lessons to learn.
Those who listen to what the Messenger has revealed will Discover the True Reality. Others will believe what they have created and hold onto.
That's what I see. It's very clear!!
My Answer: This is a limit or a rule you have placed upon yourself that limits you. It also binds you to the messengers thereby limiting your view.
In a multilevel classroom, students are at different levels of knowledge and understanding, however all the kiddies are equal. Perhaps, you should put your hatred in check for those making bad choices and learning what those choices really mean. You will never be happy otherwise.
A Being capable of creating universes along with this world has to be very smart. Why would you think such a Being would create a mess? Did you say free will? Would one's free will really get in the way of a Being so smart as to be able to create Universes and this world? If the saleslady under free will can sell me something I do not want or need, how can God be so helpless? You Greatly Underestimate God.
Perhaps, you value the petty thing mankind values BLAME. You see bad in the world and you can't point the finger at God. Aren't these more limits you are placing on yourself? You are getting in your own way so much that it's no wonder you are blind to it all.
Knowledge lives beyond the surface. God is running on multiple levels with multiple views. You must advance and expand your thinking and view if you are ever in hope of Discovering anything. Instead of seeing rotten, look and see how things are changing. How have mankind's challenges changed mankind? Hey, they don't burn witches at the stake no more. do they?? When disasters hit, look at all the people and countries show up with help. There are those who see it as a WE not a We against They.
Discovery takes works. You aren't going to Discover the Real Truth about God Believing, Following, and Accepting. Look at God's actions. As a creation of God, God's actions are EVERYWHERE!!! Actions speak louder than words. This is the way to know God.
You can choose to follow Beliefs and see the world as a mess. I choose to Discover Truth and see the world as the Masterpiece that it is!! Sometimes hard lessons some must learn takes a mess. On the other hand look for the Goal. Look for the purpose. There is much more going on than you could imagine. It's not about having it made!!!
A Leopard does not change it's spots. If God creates a Masterpiece universe, why would God not make the people factor as much as a Masterpiece? The people factor is much harder to understand simply because it carries so many more variables. If you couple those variables with 7 to 8 billion people and the possible combinations of interaction possibilities go through the roof. The Dynamics of God's system are simple AMAZING!!!
Don't tell me one can not see God except through messengers. Those messengers have no clue. I have found no religion that understands God at all. Is this my EGO talking? I can't ignore God and that which is staring us all in the face. Can you see??
WE are but mere ants. One must Stretch and Expand the View and Thinking beyond the simple I want to have it made. There is so very much more to Discover!! Being one who must know truth, this hunger student marches forward!!
That's what I see. It's very clear!!
