What you are about to read may just be the most important thing that you could possible discover. No strike that, what you are about to read is the most important thing you could discover. I say that because there is nothing greater than awakening to understand that God not only created Creation, but in Reality, GOD is Creation.

As a Christian I was told that God is the seen and the unseen. When I reflected on this, it occurred to me that if God is the seen and the unseen alike, then nothing could exist that is not God. I believe it was this point that the apostle Paul was trying to share when he said God was not far off or far from every one of us?

Acts 17:28

“For in him we live and move and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.”

Is this not the same understanding Jesus wanted everyone to realize when he said he was one with the Father?

In my book, Prophet or Madman, I did my best to clarify this point when I said God is a formless consciousness and we as spiritual children of God are likewise units of consciousness.

Looking at things from that viewpoint might help shed some light on another confusing statement. I have found many people over the years that don’t yet understand that when it was said we were made in the image and likeness of GOD, the statement should not be looked at from the physical view but rather the spiritual.

Remember it was also said, GOD is Spirit. You, me, and everything that exists is part of the universal Spirit known to some as God, Allah, The Lord, The Great Spirit, or simple the Universe. Beyond the labels, in terms of Ultimate Reality, Life (the creator of that which is), could be described as infinite consciousness expressing and exploring itself throughout the dimensions of time and space.

In closing I wish to add one last important point. When you finally wake up to know yourself spiritually, you will come to realize that you are in fact interconnected to all that is and to each other.

WE are all drops of water from the same infinite fountain.

More to come…

Love and Light,

Brother Bruce

Prophet or Madman
