Restore to Truth 3 - The Truth About Separation

You Are Always One With God

The Illusion Of God’s Separation From Men

To explain why God can fail, Religion had to come up with a God who can separate Himself from His image and likeness, His very own extension and manifestation, His own branches, in another words, Himself.

This would contradict all that Religion teaches about God: being the One all and in all. So they had to explain again. So they came up with a theory that ‘sin,’ or the imperfect creation of the perfect Creator, can displease God so much that God would separate Himself from it. Therefore, they created an illusion of God’s separation from men.

Religion further convinces you that you are born defected in sin. You are shameful and worthless in God sight. You are not worthy to be the dust of His feet. And your created nature is so despicable that God couldn’t even look at you!

In another words, you are NOT made in the image and likeness of God. The you-are-born-in-sin theory convinces you that you are made in the image and the likeness of Satan. And the sad thing is, “Whatever a man thinks he is, so is he.” If we think we are sinful, we are. If we think we will always be struggling with sin, we do, for such is the law of faith.

Religion also commands: “You better be humble!” This often leads to you never feeling good or confident about what God created in you. Ignore your glorious nature and only focus on your sinful nature. And, always be careful because you will never overcome sin in this life. So you need to bow your knees to God constantly to beg for His mercy and pity on you!

Religious teachers strip you of all of your self-esteem, as theirs were stripped by Religion. They cannot see any value in themselves, or you. They cannot love themselves, or you. The center of most Religion is not about joy, innocence and self-confirmation, but fear, sin and self-denial.

It was Religion that crucified Jesus because He claimed to be like God. And He helped others recognize they were also like God. Religion will continue crucifying those claiming to be One with God. Religion must defend this illusion of God’s separation from men, or it cannot survive.

The Truth About God’s Separation From Men

To say that men can be separated from God is to say that men can create themselves outside of God. Only so, can men claim they are separated from God. But where do men get the elements to create?

The whole theory that sin can separate us from God has a serious flaw, for God is all and in all. Just because we feel ‘separated’ from God, doesn’t mean we are. God created our body, soul and spirit, and He is in all of them. So unless we can separate ourselves from our own spirit, we can never be separated from God!

The Illusion Of Men’s Separation From Men

Because people assumed that God could be separated from men, they also assumed separation on a smaller scale: people are separated from each other. That’s why people treat others in ways they would never treat themselves. Because they see themselves physically separated from each other, they have the illusion of our separation each other.

They do not recognize that they are all inter-related as the spirit being, as parts of the Universe. Everyone is indeed a branch of one tree. All human beings, regardless of their ages, genders, races, and religion, are extended from one source: God!

So whatever my right hand does to my left hand, it is doing to itself, because they are part of the same body. The same applies to the tree branches. So whatever we are doing to others, we are doing to ourselves! “Love your neighbor as yourself” – because they ARE yourself!!

The Truth About Men’s Separation From Men

However, all creations are inter-related. Do you breathe? Is your breath connected to the outside world, the entire Universe? You can find same elements in every component of the Universe! We are indeed One with God and each other!! The Universes expands from a tiny dot. It didn’t separate, just got bigger. We are all part of it.

“Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God.”

You are not just a ‘body’. You are not even your body. You have a body, but you are not a shell, because the real you is infinite with no end.

You are not a composition of bones, muscle, organs, etc. That is not the real you. This body belongs to you. It’s a tool you operate. It reacts under certain conditions or influences. This tool can be hurt, worn out or broken down, but ‘you’ won’t. This tool can stop functioning and operating, but you never can.

Some believe that our body that contains our spirit. However, the opposite is true: It’s our spirits that contains our bodies. Your spirit is not confined to your body. In fact, your body lives in the energy field of your spirit.

Everything is formed by the energy of Life itself. The energy of Life vibrates and emanates through every subject in the Universe. It can be visible at times or manifest in the form of heat.

Some call it light, fire, source, or soul. The fact is: this light is the real you. (You are the ‘light’ of the world.)

You used to think that light radiates onto things and forms images. However, reality is the opposite; this ‘light’ actually emanates ‘within’ all objects, and creates it.

This ‘light’ or ‘spirit’ covers its created object and extends without limit. It’s impossible for this energy field to stop at one place. That means there is no end for the spirit.

It’s like the air in a house. You may have different rooms, but the air is all the same. You can smell baking bread in your kitchen from your living room. Therefore, there is no ‘ending’ of your kitchen air, and no ‘beginning’ of your living room air.

The further you are away from the kitchen, the less you smell the bread. But, your dog can still smell the bread from outside because the air inside of the house is connected to the air outside.

The further you are away from a spirit, the more the energy of that spirit gets less intense and wide spread. But it never disappears or ends. Conversely, it’ll mix and combine with other spirit energy. And thus the entire Universe is one giant complex form of energy that expands, mixes, and reacts to each other.

And that’s the real you. You are an energy that never ends in time or space.

So there is no soul that’s totally separate from another. Each soul is an individual part of the One soul. And this soul is the soul of God, who manifests Himself in all forms.

So there is only one energy field. It’s Life itself or the Energy of God. This Energy has all wisdom that includes all knowledge, all consciousness, data, and information, and all understanding and experiences.
It is all and is in all. It is the greatest ‘is’ or ‘being.’ It’s the Alpha through Omega. You have heard many descriptions about God in the Bible.

You are this energy. This is also you. There is no separation between the two. You are One with All, because all is formed by the energy of God. This means you are One with every other person. Anyone in anywhere is indeed One with you. You cannot be separated. This is not a theory, but very fact.

The Purpose Of The Illusion Of Separation

While we have always been One with God, however ecstatic and glorious it may be, eventually we feel nothing. It’s like the story of Adam and Eve: when we have everything, indeed, we have nothing. All becomes meaningless. It’s through the contrast that we can experience what it’s like otherwise. So the illusion of separation is the necessary and only way for us to experience ‘union’ because we can never be apart from God!

The Ways To Step Out And Profit Form The Illusion Of Separation

The most important thing you recognize is this separation is an illusion. And thus profit from it. Know that He is with you always, and all ways. You will never feel alone or left out again.

This also means, when you are kind to others, you are kind to yourself, and vice versa. Whatever you do to others, you are doing it to yourself. Treat others as yourselves because they are you. Imagine your left hand gives to your right hand. You are not losing or sacrificing anything to bless others because they are one with you.

When you ‘give,’ it sends the signal to the Universe that you ‘have’ to give. And the Universe is designed to regenerate such reality. So, the more you ‘seemed’ to give away, the more they come back to you. So give joyfully, knowing it’ll all come back to you at least 100-fold in this life and in the coming Eternity!

So take every opportunity to praise and encourage others. Give self-esteem to others as a gift because they may not able to give it to themselves. They’ll find themselves through you and recognize who they really are. They won’t be lost again. Once they were lost, but now they are found.

So God is inviting people back to themselves, to the Godliness within them as a divine being. If we recognize and declare that, we are restored to His image and His likeness.

To change our behavior, we must first change our thoughts of ourselves. If we think we are always a sinner, we are. However, if we recognize we are One with God, with Christ in us, we are.
So declare this message to others too! Help them to recognize the Christ in them. Carry on the mission Jesus commissioned us to: Help them recognize that they and God are One, as you and God are One!
