Is our God an alien? We have migrated to other planets hoping we could find one that could sustain our life and maybe other life forms. Maybe there is other life out there, more intelligent life that also needed a new planet to live on. This life form found the planet that we call Earth and decided to plant a seed, or experiment with a new life form and eventually created what we call people. This may have happened on more than one planet in more than one galaxy. There may well be a God, and this life form - our creator - is our God, who is actually what we call an alien and we are only trying to find our way home. For whatever reason - disease, catastrophe or boredom, our God decided to create us. Maybe we are just toys to him like an ant farm. This Being does not have to have a form - our God is known to us as an entity - a feeling, or power within us. This could be Its design - to keep control of us - for us to always know It - It is a part of all of us, good or bad. Some choose to absorb the feeling and live as good - others choose to block the feeling and live a troubled life.
It is not necessarily a world, or a person, or even a thing. It is more like a feeling, an essence, a knowing. It just is. It is called God by our people, our life forms. We cannot touch It, for there is no substance. It is nothing we can see, other than by experiencing caring, tenderness or love, beauty and good. We can feel It. It feels like tightness in our chest, a lump in our throat or a tear in our eye. It feels like what we call pride, or love. And everyone feels this at some time. It cannot be proven or disproved. There are no records that every person will believe as true, and how can you disprove a feeling? Something that is not really there, but It is. There are many beliefs, myths, and theories. We know, deep in our hearts, there is a God. A powerful, all knowing, all seeing, all caring being or entity that looks after us and has planned out our individual and ultimate fate, our destiny. We know God is there, here, we just can't explain why or how it all came about, until now. In a discussion with my husband the other day it just all fell into place for me. I've never been terribly religious, although I believe in a being greater than mankind and I say a prayer nearly every night thanking God for my existence, my family and friends and our good health. With prayer, one shows a devotion to the creator and commits themselves to the belief of a more powerful being. A being that can protect and heal, or devastate. I've often wondered why the Son of God was a human, just like us, but God was an entity. Well now, I think I know. So I will now lay my theory on paper for others to ponder.
In the new world the people had to start from scratch. God did not send those who were all knowing. They had to learn on their own with their own mistakes, although the knowledge was there to be developed. We are now at a point where we too need a new world. The one in existence is being destroyed by not only ourselves, but also by the solar system. Migration is inevitable. The knowledge is there for us to send out our scouts. To create a new life on another planet, maybe in another galaxy. Our life form will never reach “all knowing”. It is not in our design.
It was a science experiment. The assignment: to create a living world, such as a terrarium, ant farm, or honeybee hive for observation. But it went further than that, the creation of a mastermind, a supreme being, a fluke. After the creation of an entire galaxy, came a solar system within it. Complete with a sun and moon. The magnetic pull of the moon set the other planets in motion around it. The vacuum from this motion started strange happenings on one planet. Plant life emerged on the surface omitting vapors, which dropped back to the surface and built up into great bodies of water. This was fascinating. As the observation continued, experiments were constructed with fabulous results. If the vacuum was disturbed in any way little storms would erupt around the planet. Sometimes these would develop into wondrous displays of energy, other times they would dissipate quickly. But each of these storms had a resounding effect in the way the planet developed.
God is not an alien. God created us to have a personal relationship with Him through His son, Jesus Christ. I know everyone has their own world views and beliefs, but it's only because they want to escape the truth of a personal God who cares and who loves them. Why is it so hard for people to believe in a God who is personal? People think Christianity is the most pessimistic of all religions because Christians talk about God's judgment- and I know there are some crazy people out there who call themselves "Christians" and stand on the street and scream at people "You're going to hell if you don't accept Jesus!". I apologize for those kinds of "Christians," because Christians are supposed to love others, and not condemn. And by the way, Christianity is not supposed to be a religion. Christianity is having a personal relationship with God. There are many Christians who are very religious and legalistic, but i am not. I hate religion. Religion is what crucified Jesus on the Cross, and God warns us about being legalistic. God wants to know every one of you, and that is why he made you. :)
