On Hatred

Beloved, the Spirit moves me to write, and so I write.

I have never known such grief as this - to watch the Children of God work such abominations and atrocities in their ignorance of Him. They do crawl upon the earth like locusts, and their words are as the venom of vipers, for they speak of His name yet know Him not. Yea, they do whip Him and spit on Him, though in their eyes they are as holy as the chief priests. Their sin is this: that they have chosen to confine the Lord their God, who is All and Naught, being no made thing. They diminish Him into rigidly fixed laws and precepts of which they themselves do not even understand, but yet these are preferable to them who have no spiritual sight because they are unchanging and simple. The laws that they believe in have become inflexible, and therefore they are not of God. For indeed, I say to you that God is change that is stability. He is constant in His change for He is Life, and Wisdom teaches that the law of life is change. To be alive at all is to undergo evolution, for to be born is to surely die, and to die is surely to be born.

But they do not see such truths. They are as Thomas the Doubter, for they believe not with faith but with their infantile senses. They seek God in the tangible - a clear command that all must follow. And yet, the greatest commandment of all as the Lord taught us is to Love the All with all your heart and soul. These men and their god of order are blasphemers. They mock the glory that is God, and leave Him naked upon a tree. Behold, o man, thy vanity laid before thee: that it is thy wish above all else to fashion God in thy own image! You who are blind to the ever unfolding Universe, you who worship empty idols, who know not the Truth that is God. O presumptuous and petty human! Knowest thou not that thou art dust? And that the Lord your God will one day smite you in the Day of His Wrath? Yea, I tell you that there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth on that day when you shall learn of your own insignificance. Amen, the root of all human fear and spiritual suffering is true. And ye shall be cast out, for ye knew Him not. When He was hungry you gave Him no food. When He was naked you clothed Him not. When He was in captivity you did not visit Him.

The world has been corrupted and Jerusalem has fallen because of man's own iniquity, not because God hates. Behold, in God there is no East nor West, there is no difference. There is only Unity which is Love. God does not hate. Hatred is human, is petty, is rooted in our worthless insistence that all that we know our individual selves to be is the full range and extent of the whole human condition. These are lies and are the beliefs of the Deceiver. Did you not reject him when you were baptized in the name of the Lord? When you committed yourself to Him, did you not take up your own Cross and renounce all evil? And yet these men do evil in our midst. Is there none who shall right them? Shall the just not have their vindication? Indeed, they shall. For the Just are in the Hands of God, and no terror nor torment shall afflict them. They are true to Him having known Him to be within them. And He has shown His great mercy and love to them, and has lifted them up out of their misery and wiped the tears from their eyes. This is thy God that thou hast tried to imprison with the word "hate."

You know Him not.
