Just God. So I consider that he created from within himself. Everything that has been created came out from him. (Yes, YOU!)<br /><br />I have been "chewing" on this for about 25 years, and still cannot comment further, but this consideration has changed my life in an incredible way. The way I view others, their "religious concepts", the creation accounts, concepts of "hell", eschatology, return of Christ, etc. Bottom line for me is the increase of love and acceptance I have discovered, both for others and myself. I have discovered that our Lord is not prejudiced nor angry or upset at what we think or do. He is so much at peace, that we, as being an eternal part of Him, can only love and cherish us, "as is", "as will be". I think, (and because I am not too versed in scripture), that it was in Hebrews somewhere is a mention that He finished all things before he began them. <br /> Radixxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07430680520453184602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-120258547974316772.post-4613928395734529462013-04-25T04:22:26.382-07:002013-04-25T04:22:26.382-07:00Hi Joel,
