You Are Always Free To Be Yourself
The Illusion Of God’s Requirements
Due to
the illusion of insufficiency, people think there are not enough resources in
the Universe. So, they must struggle for the things which there aren’t enough
of. Also, to obtain limited resources or limited favor of God, without killing
each other, there must be certain requirements. As a result, the illusion of
requirements was created.
People
are good with this illusion. They created a God who requires His people to be
perfect in certain ways: He requires you to come to Him, in a certain
ceremonial way or methods with regulated details. You have to speak
articulately and eloquently. You are
required to ‘live’ by certain ‘dos’ and ‘don’ts’ to be accepted by God.
The Truth About God’s Requirements
However,
if you have blue eyes, no one can force you to have blue eyes. If you are six
feet tall, no one can force you to be six feet tall. If you are one with all,
no one can force or require you to be One with all. You are created to be
loved. There are no requirements for Love.
Once you
are clear about this, you will then understand the essence of ‘free will” and
the spirit of ‘Liberty.” For Love, as well as Liberty, never require anything.
Remember, true Love is unconditional and would never require. You are perfectly
and completely loved by God, without requirements.
The Illusion of Men’s Requirements
Nevertheless,
people still assume, “There is not enough. So, how can we have enough? What’s
the requirement to have enough?” They must ‘do’ something to fulfill these
requirements. Then, they can become whatever they want to be. Most of humankind
still insists on this illusion today, only stronger.
If they
want ‘happiness’, ‘security’, ‘love’, etc, there are things they must do. And
unless they fulfill enough ‘requirements,’ they are not qualified to ‘be’ and
‘have.’ Therefore, in their world, “to-dos’ become their highest priorities. So
people have to-do lists to define a good life: Get a degree, get a job, get a
spouse, get kids, get money, get car, get house, etc. And when you don’t do
these things, you are defined as having a ‘bad life.’
However,
the world has the order upside down. They think of ‘doing to become.’ And after
‘doing’ much, they realized they still haven’t become. So they go do more, in
endless loops of constant frustration and disappointment.
“For the
good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I
practice. Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but
sin that dwells in me.” Romans 7:19-2
In
another words, “dos” don’t work! It’s about who do you think you are! If you
desire to overcome, you must ‘be’ something first, and then do accordingly.
Doing something pleasant doesn’t mean you are happy. You must choose to ‘be’
happy first, and then do because you are happy. Same principle applied, you
must choose to be ‘Love’ first, and then do. You choose to be merciful, and
then do.
Just
because a person ‘does’ what’s responsible, doesn’t always mean he is
responsible. Just because a person ‘does’ charitable giving, doesn’t always
mean she is generous. Similarly, Jesus said, “A person may not have ‘done’
adultery, but if he ‘thinks’ of it in his heart, he has committed adultery.”
For our Father is a spirit, so are we. And who we are in spirit and in truth is
what really counts.
Religion
says that you are separated from God. And you are given insufficient resources
and will always be in need. So go beg God (or people) for things you want. And
you MUST obey God’s rules and regulations in order to get the approval and
favor from Him. God will bless you accordingly to how much you obey Him (or
your religious organization). The bottom line being your relationship with God
is indeed about an exchange.
And, God
would NEVER send rain to bless those who don’t listen to Him, or dare to ignore
Him, or those who don’t come to Him in proper set ways and methods. In fact, not only will He not bless them,
but He would curse them and burn them with everlasting hell fire. But, if you
obey God’s requirements as we listed for you, He will be merciful and spare you
from His punishment.
Religion
also teaches that God may or may not answer your prayers, even if you obey all
of “God’s requirements.” So when people question, they are told, “God is hard
to understand. You should never question God. You should only accept it,
because ultimately, we speak for Him, you don’t.”
However,
if there is no requirement, and we have all the power and authority to create
all that we need, to manifest the issues of our heart, as the image and
likeness of the All-Sufficient One, this will be the greatest threat to their
power over others.
That’s
why Religion must kill everyone who says, “The Kingdom is within you” because
this takes away their power to set requirements that regulate their people.
They need the authority over people’s lives. They must hold the right to make
people ‘obey’ their definitions, to do what they wish.
Nevertheless,
behold, here is the good news: The Kingdom of God is at hand!!! It's within
you!!!
The Truth About Men’s Requirements
If you
realized that you were created in the image and the likeness of the
All-Sufficient One, there would be no requirements to obtain whatever you
desire or need. All you have to do is to stretch out your hands, and it would
be there.
Only
through ‘doing’ those requirements do people realize that the requirements are
all unnecessary. Ask those who have been through life. And, they will advise
you: “Don’t let people tell you what to do!”
At the
end of your earthly life, all the dos will mean nothing. The most important
thing will be “who you are” while doing the things. Were you happy? Were you
kind? Were you friendly? Were you caring, understanding, and generous? And most
importantly, were you Love?
Your
spirit is not about what you ‘do’, but what you ‘are’. At the end, your spirit
is not what you do, but who you are.
For most
people, this is hard to believe. It can be very scary. If people can freely
chose who they want to be, and do accordingly, then, some things may never get
done. Who would take the trash out? Who would do some things no one else wants
to do?
However,
such fear is of not necessary. Human beings are actually great spirits! Without
rules or regulations, there have been many who are willing to do what’s
necessary! In fact, few are unwilling. They feel very uncomfortable making no
contribution to society. You can observe that the happiest people in the world
are those who have blessed others the most.
Have you
washed dishes for your family out of love? Have you changed your kids diaper
with tender heart? Do you need rules and regulations to force or require you to
serve? While serving, do you feel so blessed to bless? So loved to love?
“Doing” Is The ‘Fruit; “Being” Is The Root
If there
were no rules, regulations, or requirement, the ‘reasons’ to do things would
change. People would not do because they ‘had to.’ They would do all things
because they ‘wanted to.’ Because doing these things express who they really
are. In fact, that’s the only reason people would do any thing. Their ‘doing’
is the fruit. Their ‘being’ is the root, which is their spirit.
Heaven is
where you ARE. It’s not somewhere you ‘go,’ but somewhere you ‘are’. Most
people don’t recognize this. However, this can be changed, if they simply
choose to ‘be’ in the Kingdom of Heaven now, it’s done!
The
Kingdom of Heaven is when you realize that you are one with God and all things.
Therefore, you do all things willingly as unto yourself. Loving and serving
others will be something you are naturally eager to do because you are One with
them. You won’t get upset if you don’t get a ‘reward’ for it because when you
serve them, you are serving yourself. This is when you live the verse: “Love
your neighbor, as yourself.”
The Purpose Of The Illusion of Requirements
There are
no requirements from Love, Truth, Liberty, Life, or God. There is nothing you
really must ‘have’ or ‘do.’ Nevertheless, you could only experience this
freedom from the illusion of requirements if you imagined that you were
‘forced’ to do something. Only after experiencing ‘bondage’ could you truly
understand “liberty.”
When you
have risen above this illusion and realized there is no requirement to have His
love. You will then experience the exceeding great joy of God’s unconditional
love.
Our
Earthly life provides us many illusions to walk through. They are not designed
to trap us or cripple us. They are designed for us to experience the Godliness
in us: Light in darkness; Peace in storms, Love in fears, Liberty in bondage.
We don’t have these illusions to encounter in Heaven!
Your
spirit can truly grow from your earthly lives. Your afterlife experiences are
not a ‘reward’ but a ‘result.’ It’s the fruit of your life on Earth. So don’t
condemn or judge these seemingly unpleasant illusions; they come with good
purposes. Profit from it!
The Ways To Step Out And Profit From The Illusion Of Requirements
Imagine
what Jesus said to the Religion of His time. He was crucified for that very
reason. What He said shook the world of His generation, “Ask, and it will be
given; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For
whosoever asks receives, and whosoever seeks finds, and whosoever knocks it
will be opened.”
This is
about personal creation! It has no requirement! It has no restrictions on what
you may ask! He does say be careful about the issues of your heart (such as
fear), for your spirit will not lie. And do not ask in wanting (for you’ll get
the prayer answered as “always in wanting of it.) In fact, if you observe how
Jesus prayed, He asked with thanks always and praise without ceasing.
His life
mission is to identify the Kingdom of God within people! He explained, “What
man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone?
Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent? If you then, being evil,
know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father
who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!”
Then He
went on to explain how to release the Kingdom: “Therefore, whatever you want
men to do to you, do also to them.” It’s through giving away the Kingdom that
you obtain what you give away. Whatever you do to others, you are doing it to
yourself! It’s through blessing others
that you are blessed! Because you are all One!
Therefore
do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What
shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly
Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first His kingdom and His
righteousness by giving it away to others, His Kingdom and His righteousness,
and all these things shall be added to you!!
