divinum1 Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 The very first cause was not the beginning of the universe, but rather just the beginning of the creator-God getting to "life". For God was in existence from eternity, but his existence from eternity was incomplete, formless, lifeless, and without any order, and as such, he was just a void and darkness upon the face of the deep. And then at some primordial time he somehow accidentally turned into "light' (motion), and that was the very first cause that occurred upon the face of the deep. And as he turned into light (motion) that was the time when he first came to 'life', and became conscious of himself. And he soon realized that it was good; But it took a long time before the light (moving process) extended throughout his entire Godhead. And at that time he became fully conscious fully knowledgeable and fully powerful since there was nothing opposing to his light. And then he divided-separated the light (the moving part of his Godhead) from the darkness (the non moving part of his Godhead). And he called the light "Day", and the darkness he called "Night". And that was the beginning and the end of his fist cycle of creation. However, as god turned into light (motion) that was the time when he first transformed into the so called "Spirit" (breath), which clearly means that the Spirit of God is not the substance of God, but rather just the manner in which the substance of God operates. The word Spirit means 'breath' which merely indicates that the substance of God acts as if breathing in and breathing out. In other words it expands and contracts back and forth ceaselessly undulating from one end of its spectrum to the other end of its spectrum, but it is limited however in both respects. Furthermore as God separated the light (the moving part of his Godhead) from the darkness, he thus became limited in all three respects; in Numbers, in Space, and in Light. And he thus became omni scient and omni potent throughout the region of his presence. And then from this perspective he prefigured the way of how to make the world; the so called Heaven and the Earth; And that was his second act (second cause).
