In answer to my plea for help understanding how the universe at its highest levels is organized and operates, Suzy Ward sent me a chapter of Matthew’s Revelations for a New Era (available from https://www.matthewbooks.com).
Matthew takes us on a tour of Reality at levels so sublime, words would fail us. Thank you, Suzy.
S: Yes, I see. Thank you. Is Creator the supreme being of the cosmos and God is an assistant?
No. Cosmos and universe often are used interchangeably as synonymous terms, but each universe is only one part of the cosmos. Our universe is but one of several, and each universe has its own god as its supreme being. Because people on Earth are not aware of either those other universes or the creation hierarchy, God is the name given to Creator by some religions.
This is the use of a generic term for a formal name, like naming a baby girl, Girl. And it is not uncommon or incorrect for God to be referred to as “our creator,” because He is, but that adds just another element of confusion regarding the two beings, Creator and God, and the name.
I don’t know how the error in name started. It may have been some deviation of reference in deepest antiquity, when it was known that Creator/Creation is the Source, All That Is, I AM, Almighty, Oneness, Totality or other designation to denote Creator in Its highest station of all the cosmos. The name doesn’t matter. When love and reverence are given by souls to God in name and to Creator in meaning, the communion of those souls with Creator is honored in fullness.
The Trinity of the Christian churches could be interpreted as this: Father (Creator: the highest power in the cosmos, who is called God or other names in Earth religions). Son (God, who is the creation — the “son” — of Creator and is the supreme being of our universe and who is not generally recognized on Earth as different from Creator. Holy Ghost (the highest angelic realm, also called the Christed realm, where the highest beings are total love expressed as light; and from whence come the souls who have incarnated as major religious figures throughout this universe, including Jesus and Buddha).
Regardless of the difference in names and interpretations, the interconnectedness of this triune order is the same. And there is no difference in the divine order of the Almighty Omnipotent and Omniscient Being and Its subsequent powers, only in the names as they have evolved.
GOD
S: Do God and Creator differ in any way besides the size of their “jurisdiction”?
There are two essential differences. God is in effect Creator for this universe. He is Creator mind in knowingness, Creator heart in love, Creator power in authority and responsibility for this universe.
Thus God is the sum of all universal intelligence, wisdom, knowledge and power, and there is no difference in its quality or extent from the very same in Creator. Because any part of the Totality contains all the aspects of Totality, our God is a perfect, undiluted expression of Creator, but with these essential differences.
First, a vital function of Creator’s core essence is without activity. It’s like the axle of a wheel providing a stable aspect to the other parts that are in motion, and that stability enables the constant
motion of all Creator’s other aspects. If that stable functioning ceased, all order would cease and there would be Chaos again. That core essence is the center of order and life in the cosmos, and without the measured pace of energy or frequencies, there could be no manifestation of any form of life.
For God, it is a different story. As the responsible essence throughout this universe, He is in all aspects more than functional without activity. God is the magnified active force of Creator for this universe where He, with Creator, initiated all life forms and all order. Nothing exists in this universe that is not of God’s creating in conjunction with Creator.
As total love and light in essence, God is the source of the love and light of our universe, and all of His creatures thrive because of this. The highest energy of light is love, a fluctuating, expanding and contracting motion ever increasing in its power to encompass more loving capacity and sensation. Love is infinite and light cannot be captured, only directed. That is the essence of individual souls interacting with God.
Because life in all forms is of God and inseparable from Him, it can be said that humans are made in His image by attributing to Him His human creations. The idea of a human appearance and the material of which physical bodies are made came from the mind of God.
With the creation of life in our universe He set in motion the unstoppable momentum of laws that govern everything from the orbiting of galaxies to a seed knowing when to emerge from its covering and start growing. For the immeasurable time since this was started, only the refinements of energy direction through technology have changed the original course of divine energy’s purpose and motion. There cannot be any change within energy itself because energy IS creation. It is how energy is tapped into and used that is the key to creating.
In the beginning, all creation within this universe was flawless, pure, holy and loving. All was in perfect harmony and union, without divisibility or dishonor or sorrow. Life was inherently meant to be lived in such a state. Creator intended free will to be a gift, not a curse, but it is possible that this Gift of all gifts, the total freedom of souls to choose, has been so abused and misused that it cannot be regarded as the golden gift it once was. In some universes free will is unknown, we are told. Even parts of this universe have absorbed the gift into such radiance that it no longer is an individual decision. On Earth free will is the order of life wherein the hand of God is ever present in observation, but never in restriction.
The second essential difference between Creator and God is this: Whereas Creator is aware of each individual life throughout the cosmos, there is no standard for Its involvement in the lives of the souls. God is not only aware of each soul’s station in this universe, He knows all their heartaches, secret dreams, torments, joys, fears. ALL is known to God.
When Creator left Its state of sublime stillness, the purpose was to experience through creating. As the perfect expression of Creator, God has the same purpose, and His sentient aspect is within every one of His creations in any incarnate or discarnate life form. He can feel the emotions and physical sensations felt by all souls in any form, and not for even one instant is He detached from the total experiencing of every soul in our universe. This is true regardless of souls’ status in spiritual evolvement and free will choices, and it pertains to every life form within the animal and plant kingdoms.
At a much higher level, He experiences the anguish of Earth in her present turmoil and heavy negativity, and the sensations of every other celestial body as well. I cannot state too often the inseparability of God from every life form in His universe, and that same interconnectedness is true of each soul with every other soul in all life forms.
