(08/27/2019) Understanding Oneness Without Sameness





Today, reply is on the independent personhood displayed by divinity, and the existence of GOD who is the sum of all spirit content. Just as GOD is to be described as immortal and invisible, his character, process and substance displays authority, dominion, oneness without sameness, and personhood. Ongoing relationship between the Creator and the created should be understood as appearing primarily through consciousness, existence, and operations of will, rather than exchange or interactions using social behavior, intellect, or events and occurrences determined through mechanical and natural law. Even so, it is written: Numbers 23: 19, King James Version (KJV): 19 God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? One of the fighters in the “Yahoo! Answers” public forum on Religion and Spirituality who uses the ID “Anonymous” (no profile is shared) posted the following:



If Father, Son, Holy Spirit are three equal distinct persons that form the Deity of God, does that mean that each by himself is NOT God?

They’re only God when they all get together?



THE GOLDEN ARROW: God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. (John 4: 24, King James Version, KJV)

Anonymous”, being spirit, divinity has existence without form. Your reply requires sacred knowledge, and uses concepts and language that has allowed many mature Christians to avoid spiritual confusion when speaking of “divine fullness” (we also say, active presence; the Godhead; the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit; the summation of all spirit matter). Once we acknowledge that the makeup and substance of divinity is spirit in its character, form, and process, we also should grasp that spirit does not display the measurable dimensions (e.g., depth, breadth, height, length, weight) associated with carnal and material things. Spirit may operate within the frameworks of time and space; spirit may put forth concrete and tangible matter; and spirit may exist within the consciousness of created beings and living creatures. The inseparable aspects of divine fullness include balance, faith, holiness, longsuffering, lovingkindness, oneness without sameness, personhood, righteousness; wisdom, and wrath against sin. Faith is made only of faith; holiness consists only of holiness; righteousness is only of righteousness.

Independence, influence, and integrity of being exists for all the appearances and manifestations of divine personhood. GOD can not be altered, changed, manipulated, or reconfigured by whatever has origin, existence and life from the expression of divine prerogative, eternal purpose, and sovereign will. Divinity has used visible forms to communicate with the living (e.g., the burning bush; the rainbow about his shoulders; and the form of human flesh, we say, the Incarnation, appearing on the earth as Jesus Christ). The divine actuality transcends being in accord, having agreement, or unity of doctrine and purpose that are all language describing human social behavior. Developing and mature Christians are encouraged to realize that spirit exists as both concentrated and diffuse at the same time; and divinity continues as immortal displaying oneness without sameness. Consider again the following that uses language from the Bible:

1. Genesis 18: 1-6, King James Version (KJV): 1 And the LORD appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre: and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day; 2 And he lift up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood by him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground, 3 And said, My Lord, if now I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant: 4 Let a little water, I pray you, be fetched, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree: 5 And I will fetch a morsel of bread, and comfort ye your hearts; after that ye shall pass on: for therefore are ye come to your servant. And they said, So do, as thou hast said. 6 And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said, Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes upon the hearth.

2. John 8: 57-59, KJV: 57 Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? 58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. 59 Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.

There is far more that should be said, correctly examined, and spiritually apprehended. (For example, 3. Romans 12: 4-5, KJV: 4 For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: 5 So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.) Even so, I trust this fragment will be useful. Be it unto you according to your faith.
