The Kind Of God You Worship Determines The Level Of Your Intellect by oteneaaron(m): 9:29pm On Dec 22, 2022
"The kind of Deity which a man, consciously or unconsciously, worships, indicates the intellectual status of the worshipper.

Ask the Indian of God, and he will describe to you a powerful chieftain of a glorious tribe.

Ask the Pagan of God, and he will tell you of a God of fire, a God of water, a god of this, that, and the other.

Ask the Israelite of God, and he will tell you of the God of Moses, who conceived it expedient to rule by coercive measures; hence, the Ten Commandments.

Or of Joshua, who led the Israelites into battle, confiscated property, murdered the prisoners, and laid waste to cities.

The so-called heathen made “graven images” of their Gods, whom they were accustomed to worship, but among the most intelligent, at least, these images were but the visible fulcrums with which they were enabled to mentally concentrate on the qualities which they desired to externalize in their lives.

Today in the twenty-first century, billions of people worship a God of Love in theory, but in practice they make for themselves “graven images” of “Wealth,” “Power,” “Fashion,” “Custom” and “Conventionality.”

They “fall down” before them and worship them. They concentrate on them and they are thereby externalized in their lives."

Why do you always speak unintelligently against God?

Is there a Rule without the force of Law?

Which Deity do you speak about?

Yahweh?
