Peace is Friendly

Wars are fought between people who would otherwise be friends… but they speak a different language or have a different religion. They may speak the same language and practice the same religion but their leaders are opposing factions.

Wars are fought by those who do not want to fight. They must because their home is invaded or they are conscripted.

War is not the problem. It is the result of problems. It is not because people are aggressive but rather because they are selfish. The aggression is after the fact, always.

The few compel the many to war, but the many are to blame, since the power of the few is the many. As individuals, the leaders are only as big and strong as their followers, except by their authority.

Unlike storms and earthquakes, war is deliberate. People decide to kill other people. They fancy themselves righteous, of course; blaming the victims for the mass-murder.

If you are selfish, war is your fault.

Politics has few players and many pieces. War is a game and the common folk are expendable. Even the important pieces may be sacrificed. The players play to win… and are more likely to die if they lose than their pieces are. TAKE HEED: There is never peace for our sake. It is only because the mighty fear for their own lives.

If you are friendly, war is not your fault.

You are not friendly because you smile and flatter. The treacherous do that. You are not friendly because you look out for your own. Even the warmongers can do that. You are not friendly because you forsake your own in the interest of others. That is betrayal.

Be blind and deaf to the highfalutin so as to see and hear in all sincerity. Judge yourself with no one else in mind. If there is peace within, you are peaceful. If not, you are indeed the problem, no matter who or what is to blame. Solve the problem, not with activism, but as an individual living among others.

Mortal Trinity

When you are a child, the world is new and anything is possible. When you are an adult, the world is familiar but limited by harsh reality. When you are elderly, the world is changing and the end of you is near.

Fascinating how the same person is different people as the years go by. The similarities accentuate the differences.

Unlike mortal humans, the immortal angels are never children or elderly. They are adults from the beginning and do not end.

God created the angels with the Holy Spirit in mind. Like the Spirit, they would be true to what they are, no matter what. They would be powerful, relentless and immutable.

God created humanity with himself in mind. Like him, they would be curious and whimsical. They would be imaginative, creative and introspective.

The Holy Spirit is not merely powerful. He is all power. There is no power without him. The power of God is the Spirit. With this in mind, God made angels more powerful than humans.

The stages of life are based on the Trinity. Childhood was inspired by the innocence of the Spirit. Elderly was inspired by the wisdom of the Father. Adulthood was inspired by the Son, who is the Spirit and the Father as one and the same.

Dealing with harsh reality is the responsibility of the ADULT, since HE alone is wise and strong enough to do so. This was inspired by the life of Jesus.

Demons are because of the sins of angels, but would be impossible if not for the will of God.  That they were spawned of sin in itself is meaningful. God wronged the Spirit by humanizing him. This is because the Spirit was and is everything unto itself. Jesus was the Spirit brought to life, when Jesus was baptized. The demons as creations of God were inspired by his very own mortal humanity.

The “duality” of the universe is not God and the Devil. It is the righteousness of the Father and the goodness of the Spirit: FLOW and BALANCE.

The created did not create itself. It can only evolve or devolve or adapt or fail to adapt within the system provided. Every aspect of Creation reflects its Creator. The right and wrong alike, the good and evil alike are all from God.
