A study in the Nature of God, man and the universe;  revealing the true and exposing the False.

This message is not a theological or psychological address to explain God and man; this study is rather a form of Holy bait to entice you into a clearer picture as to what God IS!    Please, be still and listen without preconceived mental projections, for all what we have known to be God is not God. So let us start by preparing our minds to listen to the inner teacher, the anointing which will lead you into all truth.

Cogitate, be still and know that God made man in His own image and likeness, without any woman, without any wife, without any help from any one. You may be assured that if you abide with this subject long enough, it will be revealed to you how consciousness expresses It Self, forms It-Self, manifests It-Self as the pure spiritual birth. The only begotten offspring is immaculately conceived, God manifesting It--Self, expressing Its--Self as qualities of Life, consciousness revealing It-Self as form we know as man. 

Eccles.7:29--(MsgB) 
Yet I did spot one ray of light in this murk: God made men and women true and upright; we're the ones who've made a mess of things.

In this message, you can feel the reality of how God brought forth trees without having to plant seeds, crops without planting. God brought forth light, without the necessity of the need for a physical sun or moon.

  1. Light means giving understanding to what man is and how creation came into being.
  2. This Light of Life is the Light that lights every man and woman that enters this world.

John 1:1-5 (MsgB) The Word was first (Willed Action), the Word present to God, God present to the Word.   The Word was God, in readiness for God from day one. Everything was created through him;   nothing—not one thing— came into being without him. What came into existence was Life, and the Life was Light to live by. The Life-Light blazed out of the darkness;   the darkness could not put it out.

Now you can see the mystery of pure Creation, it is pure unadulterated Spiritual Creation. This living Light is the immaculate conception of man and the universe.  God as the infinite Life force is expressing Him—Self individually,  without any material forms or processes of mind systems we so often see in religion.  However, when you come to the second chapter of Genesis you will see not only how man creates a realm of opposites as he now is afraid and in fear he forgets what he is in God,  the Word made Flesh. 

Eccles. 7:29 (KJV) Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions. 

Because of the conscience, Adam develops an illegitimate sense of life, which we now know as a sense of separation from the Life, which he truly is.  In this carnal or fleshly sense of being you will see how he mis-creates and begins to think up many inventions out of which all evil arose.   Adam (Law sense) because of his erroneous feelings of Life does it all over again and again, he lifts himself up as a false identity.   Do you hear? 

Isaiah 14:10-17 (KJV) All they shall speak and say unto thee (Adam),  Art thou also become weak as we? Art thou become like unto us? [11] Thy pomp is brought down to the grave, and the noise of thy viols: the worm is spread under thee, and the worms cover thee. [12] How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! [13] For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: [14] I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. [15] Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. [16] They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; [17] That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners? 

Because of guilt and fear, he weakened the nations. His carnal mind reasons and  formes itself out of the dust of the ground,  now known as the natural or flesh man and by feeling lonely this carnal sense man forms a woman out of its own ribcage.  This is what caused so much bondage and untold misery to come to the woman as she believes she comes out of man's body. So you see,  the bondage we see in Islam shows us how the woman is to be subservient to the male. Something is wrong here, what do you think, do you think that God creates twice? Does God make mistakes? Do you think that God has some kind of re—demptive plan to correct his own mistakes after He said that what He begotten of Him—Self was wonderful and complete? 

1 Cor. 1:25-31 (KJV)    Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. [26] For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: [27] But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; [28] And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: [29] That no flesh should glory in his presence. [30] But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: [31] That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.? 

Now for pro-creation, instead of knowing that all things are already finished and complete,  this Adam mind set of good and evil,  brings man and woman together to create the next generation out of sperm and egg.  You cannot imagine really that the infinite intelligence of this universe having to have two tries at creating. What do you feel right now, you who still try to find out what truth is through studying the letter of the Scriptures, ever learning the meaning of words but never coming to the knowledge of  the truth of Being One in this only begotten of the Father. Are you still trying to find out what man is with your religious mind? Are you still trying to reason out what God is through endless writings and lessons on this subject?  Can we ever know the truth by reason or the thoughts and feelings of human mind that always lives either in the past or in the future?  No, you cannot.

John 1:9-14 (KJV)  that was the true Light, which lights every man that cometh into the world. [10] He was in the world, he made the world, and the world knew him not. [11] He came unto his own, and his own received him not. [12] But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: [13] Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. [14] And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

Now the man we now have is a man of earth. This phantom is the natural man, the mind of flesh, who is not under the law of Gen1 where under this law of absolute Life all things work together for the good and God saw that it was wonderful and entered into His rest.    

In contrast to the true Self of God expressed as Man, This man of Gen2 is not a man at all.  This mind formed man is a mythical form of the five physical senses, this separate self exalted itself as a creation of the human mind, it has no substance, no reality, it is the Phantom, the body of Sin which Jesus as the last Adam came to destroy.  This realm of darkness is but a sense fear and uncertainty. This false sense of life no longer knows his own identity, which is Christ, now overshadowed by a veil of darkness.  Let me now show you just how it creates its own destiny and how the product of its creation, expressed in all forms of calamity. Let me show you how this phantom man of the earth made God in his own image, as  a god of good and evil.

1 Cor. 1:25-31 (KJV)      Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. [26] For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: [27] But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; [28] And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: [29] That no flesh should glory in his presence. [30] But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: [31] That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

Remember, the God  of religion is a man made image without any reality.  Before man became aware of nakedness there was not yet a separate God from him,  for all what God is, is man as the expression of It.  

Can you close your eyes for a moment as you meditate on this lesson?  

Now take the word 'GOD' in your mind. 

Do you believe that this is mind form you entertain is 'GOD'?   Do you not see that this is knowledge is but a projection of your own mind, and is not God?

John 1:9-14 (KJV)  That was the true Light, which lights every man that cometh into the world. [10] He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. [11] He came unto his own, and his own received him not. [12] But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: [13] Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. [14] And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

Has this concept of God you have in your mind any power to heal or save or provide? Is there really a presence there to help you in a time of need or is this god  just a mind set, a self created image of sense thought? 

Do you hear, you who are still searching for reality?

Let us take this a little further. Let us now decide and know: “What is God?”   Now in your thought comes an answer and we have a conviction as to what we think the nature of God is!  The answer we have is also a mindset and is not true.  Remember, any thing we can form in the thought of religious conviction is not God, for we can never know God with our carnal reasoning faculty—it cannot be done, as the human mind is incompatible.  Do you hear this?  The answer you get in your mind is also a projection of the five physical senses and is all based on your cultural background. All religion is a projection of what your past parenthesis has been. For instance, there are several concepts floating around as to what the nature of God and man is. It is very confusing if you rely on these mind formed doctrines of man and even in the Kingdom messages we can not find God.  One belief is this:” God is a good God and the devil is a bad devil. ”  

In this concept there is a constant battle going on between those two deities, good fighting evil and most of the time evil seems to be winning.  The other concept is that there is no opposite power called devil to Gods Will. This devil is taken out of the realm of opposites and placed this adversary in God—head and call it a tool of God to be used to bring correction to Its offspring.  This is ignorance gone to seed and because we cannot explain where evil otherwise comes from, we place Satan as being part of God, an instrument to correct and bring trial to teach us.  However, before we get too far into total darkness let us go back to finding out what God truly is first.  Then after we know what God and His Nature truly is, the understanding of what evil is will also become clearer.  If you have been an orthodox Christian or Hebrew background, you probably think about God and see in your mind set- Jesus Christ- right?  If you are a Jew-you see God to be an old gentleman in the sky with a long beard, dealing with His creation by law, rewarding, smiting, giving and taking, blessing and cursing. Do you hear?  

If you are Meta-Physical, you probably think of God as Mind or Law.   If you have studied my writings thoroughly you will have found that in Dutch or German there is no such thing as Mind.

The Mind of Christ in German or Dutch means a feeling of One—ness, having a sense of belonging to a family or body that is original as seen in Gen1.

In other words, mind means;  'let this feeling of what Jesus felt as being One in the Father be in you, who thought it not robbery to be equal with God, but made him—self as the last Adam of no reputation and became obedient even to the death of the Cross'. 

Do you understand what I am saying?  We must let this feeling of One—ness  be in us also and remember who we are in God,  it is wonderful, can you say Amen! 

Regardless of what comes to your thought, when the question is presented by the human mind asking, “Who are you, what is God?”   Can you not see that regardless of what came to you in the form of experience that you created it through by the imaging faculty?   Originally, the image you now have of yourself was formed first by your mother and father, then perhaps by your Sunday school teacher or minister of religion. This was a picture projected into your thought by some authority; it is very subtle and misleading.

1 John 5:18-21 (KJV) 

    We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not. [19] And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness. [20] And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. [21] Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.

1 John 5:20-21 (MsgB)      And we know that the Son of God came so we could recognize and understand the truth of God—what a gift!—and we are living in the Truth itself, in God's Son, Jesus Christ. This Jesus is both True God and Real Life.  [21] Dear children, be on guard against all clever facsimiles.

Just remember, the truest words ever spoken are these in reference to God. 'If you can name it or think about it, it is not God.' 

How can you get an infinite God embodied in your thought processes? How could you ever get an infinite spiritual God in the limitations of any thing that you can think?  So regardless what thoughts you have about God, you made it by your own imaging faculty and they are all idols of the mind, they are all facsimiles. Do you hear me?  Be assured of this, what you can conjure up in your mind is not God, never mind how profound it may be. And remember, there are many concepts floating around which explain to us their particular God concepts.  Here is a dialogue I had with a teacher of a God concept known as: ULTIMATE RE-CONCILIATION.

An answer to an email send to me.  Quote, “Brother Tony, how did you acquire your particular concepts of God and His plan for Creation? I like to hear you on this matter, especially the doctrine of ultimate re-conciliation.   What do you know about God and what do you think His Plan is for us all?   Is this conviction you present in your writings not just another mind formed concept, and is this not a doctrine formed by carnal reason?  Unquote.

Brother, first remember, regardless of what that concept may be in your mind, they are all formed as beliefs, derived from the sense of alienation from the life of the true God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, and are therefore not God inspired. First, the doctrine of ultimate re-conciliation has a moral background to it, dictated to us through the conscience and is therefore error, for the conscience it an illegitimate sense of life.

There is nothing that you and I know about GOD  is  GOD, nor can the human reasoning mind faculty arrive at Truth through discussion. There is no idea of God that we can entertain in our minds that is God and in this, we cannot know Grace or do we find Truth. There is no possible thought that you and I can have about God that is God, nor do we in our humanity know His Will.

It makes no difference that our idea may be or what our concept may be in our religious conviction, it is still but an idea or a concept, and an idea or a concept is not God.  And so every Christian must eventually realize that he or she has to rise above all his concepts of God before he or she can have an experience of God, a feeling of total satisfaction. 

PS17:15 As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.

The King James Version, ( Cambridge : Cambridge ) 1769.

 Regardless of the concepts of God we believe in our heart to be true, including the feelings we entertain in our minds, whether Hebrew, Protestant, Catholic, or Oriental, it has done very little for the world.  Religion as it is known,  has no benefit for our own individual lives. This world is in a sad plight, and every known concept of God has failed to bring peace on earth, not only collectively, but also individually. Religion is a dead and futile system of the carnal mind and it is a grave mistake to base our trust in these doctrines.  The world is in a state of unrest because of fear. There is aggression on the part of Islam and retaliation and resistance by what is called democratic Christianity. At this moment, because of the mind set they entertain of God, and Islam like for instance as USA Christianity, which are also but  concepts of their particular God created a lot of conflict, consequently the aggression toward the USA , as they believe it to be the great Satan... The threat to world peace arises out of false God beliefs and both sides worship the facsimiles of the mind. 

I can now see that the doctrine of ultimate re--conciliation is also just another mind set; it is just another religious concept of reason that has no light of life in it. This is not true in the Light of what Jesus taught us.  The situation in these religious areas of beliefs would not of itself be too upsetting to anyone, except for the fact that very few Christian or Islamic persons have within themselves the witness of Grace and Truth as given to us in Christ Jesus.

Jesus  taught Love, not retaliation.

Rev. 12:10-11 (KJV)    And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. [11] And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

Jesus taught us to be forgiving all who oppose us and terrorize us, even if attacked as in 9/11 we must not retaliate.     If adhered the principle of non—resistance and follow the Lamb of God where ever It goes,  makes us independent  and impervious to world conditions such as disease, lack and eventually terrorism and death itself will be overcome. Remember, death is also but an illusion of the Gen2 doctrine. Death is also a delusion of the carnal mind of man.  Jesus did not teach ultimate re—conciliation where it is believed that even the Satan and its demon hordes are ordained of God as an adversary realm and eventually all shall be reconciled.   Satan and evil are not tools through which God uses to test humankind.  It is not true that all things good and evil alike come out of God and like a mad dog on a leash God in the form of Satan tests and tries man with evil in order to perfect him. These things are not true; they are all imaginations of the carnal mind.  

We can have the witness of total freedom only if we get to know the true God and Father of Jesus Christ---- in us and as us.  The true God sense is --the principle of non--resistance, it is the Lamb of God which is the anti--dote to all evil or good for that matter, for both good and evil in what ever form they come  are a product of the hypnotic belief in 2 powers. 

Good and evil are not attributes of God’s Divine Will.  All evil and good in this respect is all but illusion,  they are a deluded mind set of opposites that believes such error, trying to come to some reasonable answer to world problems, trying to solve the age old question:” Where did evil come from, if God is the only Power? 

In the doctrine of ultimate reconciliation, Satan is just a tool in Gods ultimate plan, which is really blinding the Christian to see the true Nature of God in which there is no opposites.  Love is the only substance and sustaining power in which there are no opposite activities. Love is God’s UN--foldment in us as His will. Love is inherent in all. Love is in all. Love is  wonderful and it comes to us in silent re--cognition as the only power letting His Grace fall on the just and the unjust without respect of person. Our Father is bringing back to our remembrance everything what we have forgotten since we descended in Adam's fear. The whole of this world has this sense of death; and it is perfect Love that casts out all fear, for fear has torment. We all have inherited this sense of separation from the Life of God through the blindness of Adam's carnality. 

For if by one mans {by one mans...: or, by one offence} offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)  Therefore, as by the offence {by one offence} of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one,  the gift came upon all who can receive Him. 

The ultimate re--conciliation doctrine has the conviction that God has everything under control, so ultimately evil is His Will, to perfect His offspring. Wrong, wrong! Sin and death came by man, not by God!  Adam weakened the nations; Adam refuses to open the prison house. This is false doctrine, formed by the UN----conscious mind of flesh, the myth of birth and death, a delusion of the carnal mind! 

No beloved friends, instead of passively submitting to these erroneous doctrines of no choice, we must let--this Mind be in us, which was also in Christ Jesus, --a--mind which feels a receptivity to Love  as it submits to the Father of all, worshiping in true re--cognition. We are His own Self expressed in the earth, not ultimately as some believe. Now are we the Son of God, not ultimately. 

1 John 3:1-3 (KJV) Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. [2] Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.  And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure. 


Adam is dead and gone, Adam is not being re-conciled, Adam is the myth of materiality and this death realm of good and evil was not God ordained. Do you understand this?

Think on this?     Gen2&3 is a mist---creation--it is a realm of good and evil—it is the serpent sense of fear, which holds the whole creation in futility. God has not lowered man into this realm of fear and futility, man in his sense of an independent sense of self—ego did. Do you hear me?

And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.  This was the completed Logos,-----His perfect Will and it was sooooooooo Good!   Let the redeemed say: "It is soooooooo good, it is done, finished and complete".

But there went up a mist from the earth, speaking about the reasoning faculty of the material mind and it watered the whole face of the ground, and a carnal idea formed of a different will was energized.  It was the Law God,  the mind formed god of good and evil a product of the five senses This was a thought that had an other go at creation after God already finished it.  Do you see something in this?  Don't reject this without giving it due prayer.  Can you not see that Gen 2 is but a lowered sense of reality and  that this is the mind of good and evil in mythological format?  And the Lord God (The Law of as you think) formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.   

Do you still believe that woman is a second hand rib taken out of man? If you still believe that God is forming a man out of dust- you still believe this male and female thing of Gen2.  Can you not see that if you still believe that male and female is part of the offspring of God then all these mind formed doctrines have put the woman under submission to be a slave to the male, as you see it vividly in Islam where woman is veiled by the serpent of Gen2?

I rather look at John 1-where the Logos is without generations-without male or female it is without birth or death, it is the UN--conditioned consciousness of Christ Jesus, appearing again in us as form, the hope of glory.

John 1--IS THE TRUE GENESIS!

The dust man Adam said: "I am afraid" who told you that? Notice, God did not create fear:  (F.E.A.R) False- Evidence-Appearing as Real.

 God the true ‘I AM’ is the CHRIST who hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.  In the mind of Christ (not Jesus before his death but after) in which we all are in conscious union, providing we have been re--generated back to the original God--Self, the 'I AM' of all living.

Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself: That in the dispensation of the fullness of times he gathered together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven{a heaven: Gr. the heavens}, and which are on earth; even in him.

Religion sees this Scriptural passage as a progressive order of things.  It is believed that eventually we are all gathered into this realm, or eventually all shall be conformed to the image of His Son. All these beliefs are elements of falsehood, which has blinded the mind of those who believe not in the completed work of Jesus Christ our Lord.

2 Corint-Chapter 4

Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not; But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty{Gr. shame}, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every mans conscience in the sight of God.  But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world (the god of opposites, of good and evil) hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. 

As to what you wrote next--I have not yet found common ground, so I will leave this alone for a while until I can at least see the whole picture as to what you are saying. Here a few points:

1.      I believe that God stands aloof from evil.    God’s eyes cannot see or know any thing of what man knows or sees as evil or good for that matter. His eyes are to Holy to see or know iniquity or anything else opposite to absolute Love.

2.      I do not believe that God created evil as a contra--will or anti--Logos to Him-Self  in order  to bring about re--conciliation- I cannot accept this.

3.      I do not accept the quote below that God subjected all creation to the vanity of the carnal mind. All these concepts are coming from the tree of knowledge and will lead man into outer darkness.
