Antichrist and angels of light

This entry might be a bit darker than what I usually post.

Antichrist is in charge of this world, anyone who disagrees with that hasn’t really been paying
attention.

Now, all that said, god, goodness, the divine will always be higher in the end and antichrist is as much a creation of the divine as you or I are and as such even if the antichrist rules the physical world and much of the spiritual world it doesn’t matter in the least since the divine spark is within everyone.

God never rules through hatred, how could he, he is pure love. There is no eternal damnation, no eternal suffering. The only suffering there is, is the suffering we cause upon ourselves when we are faced with the pure result of our actions. Sin is never carried out against someone else, it is carried against yourself. The burden of sin will never be on the shoulders of anyone else. We will always be faced with our own sin. Others can carry it and deal with it for you if you let them. Jesus can deal with your sins and liberate you from the damnation you carry out on yourself when you see it all. But even the act of giving your sins over to someone else who wants them, Jesus or anyone else, is an act of redemption, to give your sins you have to be willing to accept that you have sin and even though the burden of sin is no longer on you for the moment the burden of sins past will be on your memory.

I personally believe that there is no damnation in god, there is no damnation in those around god or in those divine. If god damned me to hell then he would be no god. Most people have done something bad in their childhood, most people have also been yelled at some point for doing something bad. I know I have, I can remember back on the time when I was yelled at and I remember that I only resented the yelling and it only made me feel better since I had someone to lash out on in response. The real pain and the real sadness comes only when you know you've done something bad and someone simply looks at you with love. Not with contempt or hatred but simply with love. And you realize that you’re so hard on yourself that all the love from someone else burns and pains like nothing else.

So why would god condemn us to hell or to damnation simply for being who we wish to be, for being in sin. In fact, why would a being of pure love even desire to harm us, we were made in gods image and we are by extension, gods. The only god who judges is the god that needs something. The god that needs to be pampered and served like an infantile child.

It is like a difference between the god that wants to watch an anthill to see how the ants live and to marvel in their beauty and organization. And the god that wants to throw rocks at the anthill so they would fear him and worship him.

The more I’ve studied and the more I’ve read, felt, and experienced the more convinced I am that the real god is nowhere near where we believe him to be. God is not the one that prances around and announces he is the one who made this and that and we should all worship and idolize him. Perhaps I risk damnation by saying this but so be it. The antichrist and the kingdom of Satan isn’t in the future, it isn’t going to descend from the sky and announce it is the ruler of the world. The kingdom of the antichrist is already here. It has been here for many thousands of years.

When I try to reach and feel the benevolent love from the divine I am filled with so much love and such a sense of serenity that I feel there is nothing to worry about. This world, this show between Lucifer/Satan and Yahweh is just a showdown put on for our benefit, a divine comedia. Neither of them is anymore the real god than Thor or Zeus or Krishna or Allah is. Yet all are equally as much the real god. We are in the preschool theater of gods and the wise old man behind the curtain is bringing forth all these images of who we can be or who we wish to be and we can emulate them, we can learn what we wish to be and more of the world.

The time ahead will certainly be the climax of this part of the show, of this chapter in the divine comedia, there can very easily be the battle of harmageddon and the rapture. Just as easily as the dragons from Chinese folklore could suddenly awaken again and eat the world, or the Gotterdammerung or so many other possible ends of the world. Yet there is one I wish for people to know, for what little its worth.

The actors in the play can do great things, move heaven and earth but they are no more divine than the least of ants or bacteria in the world. The divine is within you, gods love is not only out there, it is as much out there as it is within you. Find the divine within, hold true to it and the manifestation of gods love within and no matter how dark things become, in hell or in heaven, you will always have god by your side.

Those who judge are not creators, they are deciders. They do not create what they want, they decide from what others create what they want from them.
