God, the Eternal and Almighty, and His Creation

1

God is the origin of all being, he is Eternal, Almighty and All-embracing. He is the Lord of the entire universe, including our earth which is an unimaginably tiny part of the universe. Everything comes from him, the visible as well as the invisible world. He is righteous, faithful, and his nature is love and mercy.

2

God's love is a perfect love. We can see that the love between people does not limit, it empowers, creates free space, allows growth. Love gives freedom. This applies all the more to God's love, a love that far exceeds our human imagination and from which nothing and no one is excluded. God therefore loves all of creation, the inanimate and the animate world.

The renunciation of power is a sign of great love. Because God is perfect love, he has given freedom to creation from the moment of its creation. This freedom relates to the development of the universe, to the development of our world, and finally also to the development of humanity as part of this creation. For the sake of this freedom, God, in His love, renounced parts of His omnipotence. It was only through this renunciation that it became possible for us to live in freedom. Without this freedom we would be puppets of God.

3.

Love that cannot give itself to others is not perfect love. It lacks a counterpart who can recognise and accept this love. Because God is perfect, he wanted to create in us humans, a being that is capable of recognising his love, accepting it and also reciprocating it. We humans were thus given the opportunity by God to develop into independent beings, completely different from Him, within the freedom granted to us. In this way, the entire spectrum of human characteristics could emerge, ranging from great love and mercy to dramatic unkindness and malice. Combined with this given freedom, it was only through our being different from God that we were able to accept or reject the love of the Almighty.

4.

God has given creation and us humans freedom in our development. However, he always had a clear plan for how this creation should develop. God has always known what was necessary for human beings to develop in freedom within the framework of this development.

Freedom in the development of creation cannot be equated with random development. Freedom is granted, and in granting it, a framework is set within which this freedom of development is possible. Without such an orderly framework, development would be  chaotic. God therefore gave creation a clear framework of conditions within which creation could develop as God intended. We humans, are allowed to get to know about this framework of conditions created by God in the course of our scientific research. We refer to these conditions as "physical natural constants". The best known of these are, for example, the gravitational constant, the speed of light, Plank's quantum of action, the fine structure constant, electromagnetism, the weak and strong interaction and analogous basic physical laws. We now know that the universe as we know it, with all its galaxies, stars and planets, as well as our living earth, would not exist if these framework conditions created by God were even a tiny bit different from what they actually are.

Freedom means that God has not intervened in the development of the universe and our world  - otherwise there would be no freedom. He has provided the framework conditions for these developments and he knew where this development would lead in the course of billions of years. God knew about the beautiful aspects of this development, just as he had always known about the dark sides of such a development. He knew that giving freedom to creation would also result in dramatic undesirable developments, catastrophes, diseases and suffering. God knew this. He knew the price of freedom, but he also knew that without freedom his gift of love would not be a perfect gift. Neither would it be possible for people to reject this gift. A love that does not allow the possibility of freedom of choice would not be a perfect love. But God is the perfect one.

5.

God wanted man. He knew how the universe would develop according to His will in the course of billions of years. He was able to allow this development in freedom because he knew that because of the natural constants he had set and other laws unknown to us, the atoms that formed after the Big Bang would cluster together to form clouds of gas, these would condense into stars because of the laws of physics and these in turn would cluster together to form galaxies. Within the framework of all these processes - God knew - planets would form. On one of these planets, in the course of billions of years, the first primitive living beings would develop, which, within the framework of the rules he wanted, could develop further and further into higher and higher beings. At a certain point, one of these many beings would develop  a clarity of consciousness that would enable them to recognise God in principle when He revealed Himself to them. That was the time of the "incarnation", when mankind became able to fundamentally recognise, accept or indeed to reject the gift of the Almighty's love.

6.

The God of perfect love, who willed and created man as a being capable of consciousness and thus capable of love, gave us humans an immortal soul from the moment of the incarnation. Through this gift we have become a loveable counterpart of our great God, even beyond death. We have thereby been given the opportunity to experience this inconceivable love of God even after our death and to be allowed to experience perfection with Him. Thus our human existence is not extinguished with death.
