Voor mijn gevoel komen dus al die momenten [voor zover ik ze kon 'bekijken' sinds mei '45] neer
op eenzelfde 'goddelijke' stroom van 'genot/genade' in geboorte/hope/dope/aandacht en 'doorstarten' via
't breinfestijn vanuit dit 'vlees' & ik ga er dan ook vanuit dat dit nu ook deel uitmaakt van al die andere e-volutionaire vormen van planten/dieren & mensenleven inclusief uiteenlopende opinies die er ontstonden.
Iets dergelijks met al die 'heilige schriften' van alle menselijke culturen die ontstonden uit de aardenatuur.
't Maakt niet zoveel meer uit of je dat nu 'g d' noemt of iets anders: die woorden zijn al te vaak misbruikt.
Ik ben natuurlijk zo wel op 'n bepaalde manier gehecht geraakt aan alles wat met 'bijbel' te maken heeft.
Terug naar 't jaar 0 dus maar weer voor de zoveelste keer: net zo'n verslaving als eten, drinken & slapen!
The scrolls posit an unbridgeable gap between mankind and "G d", for 'To you, G d of knowledge,
belong all the works of justice and the foundation of truth; but to the sons of Adam belong the service of
iniquity and the deeds of deception'. Is there, then, a path of salvation for mankind from its own base and sinful nature? The members of G d's elect community know "that there is hope for someone
you fashioned out of dust for everlasting community. The depraved spirit you have purified from great of-fense". G d lifts up the man who desires him from his base destiny and purifies him of "the uncleanness of
human being and from the sin of the sons of man". This is done by bestowing upon man the divine spirit,
for "the path of man is not secure except by the spirit which G d creates for him". Indeed, G d elevates his
elect from the baseness of man to the sublime heights of the angels: 'For the sake of your glory,
you have purified man from offense, so that he can make himself holy for you from every impure abomi-nation and guilt of unfaithfulness, to become united with the sons of your truth & in the lot with your holy
ones, to raise the worms of the dead from the dust, to an everlasting community & from a depraved spirit
to your knowledge, so that he can take his place in your presence with the perpetual host and the spirit ...
to renew him with everything that will exist and those who know in a community of jubilation". Needless to
say, not all people are granted the gift of purifying spirit. The dualistic doctrine of Qumran asserts that on-
ly part of humanity has been elected to be counted among the righteous - and that part of humanity that G d has chosen to purify of their defilement and sin is, of course, the members of the Yahad themselves.'
Man is "a creature of clay fashioned with water" and "unfaithful flesh", and only the gift of spirit can purify and redeem him. There is, then, a dichotomy between the material element of human existence and the purifying spirit. Yet it should be noted that there has not yet been found in the scrolls an sxplicit contrast between materiality as such - or the material world - and the spiritual realm of the divine, a divi-sion that typifies a strand of Greek thought beginning with Plato & down through the various Gnostic movements.
It should be noted that up to now we have not found in the scrolls any identification of the lot of light with life and of evil with death, a correspondence attested both in pagan religions and in the early church.
Met andere woorden bij wijze van spreken & schrijven, horen, zien & spreken: voor mij ligt hier als 't ware
'n "begin & eindpunt" van in feite alle ware "goedbedoelende" religie die visioenen opent naar Echt Leven.
