Faith, reason, madness. what is what?
Introduction
It seems that at the brunt of modernity, there is need to differentiate the two "imagos fundmetnal," that is two say, the two fundamental "images," which dominate the Western spirituality to the dome. An "imago," is the theological term which is more or less the mental form or "image," kind of like an extremely clear and real archetype, which is constructed in reference to a real individual, person, entity, and such. As Bonhoeffer successfully describes in his Doctoral dissertation, titled "Act and Being," all being, is simply and concretely, "being-in-reference," to something. Thus, the ontological relation with time which Martin Heidegger formed a polemic of, in his "being in Time," was rendered fruitless, and caused one to idealize God, and see God as an abstract object, instead of Divine and Holy God, condescending upon an individual or community. Bonhoeffer described this condescension, as "God's being as coming." The act of spiritual-mental transcendence comes in faith in Jesus, not in time, but in eternal "faithful being-in-reference," to God, allowing for the Spirit to come through the doors of the individuals heart. allowing for spiritual essentia to be formed. I call the concrete spiritual essences, in their form of being particulars "cogeans," simply because grammatically conducing the concrete phenomena, to a cognitive abtraction, into syntax structure, helps me communicate this particular spiritual phenomena in a mathematical manner to all. After enough "cogeans," if you will, are imputed by the Spirit in the heart of an individual who is faithful, "being in reference to the triune God of the Bible," then their essence changes, and their being itself, becomes spiritualized, and thus they may now become "spiritual being-in-reference to the Triune God," completing a form of transcendance. When an image of this type is internalized or consistently apprehended, a form of teleological image or goal is internalized, as these images explicitly, in themself, contain a form of a teleological end goal. The image of Christ, has the Kingdom of God, as the end goal, containing it, and forming, all by a very God-to-human-to-God means. The "imago bestia," is a very anti-God image, and its end goal, is usually placing ones self above God, and is the Spirit of the Anti-Christ, transmutated into image form. This post will seek to explore this phenomena, and do a differentiated cross-comparison of these two images, and how the images differ in their behavior, in relation to humans, when they are internalized. There is thus a concrete teleology, of concrete existence in God's creation. This is why true Christians, have a calm sanity, as they can comprehend the image of Christ, and all of the subset forms, processes, logic's, and Words. The Image of Jesus Christ: Imago Christini Like all forms, these forms have color, and the Imagini Christi, has usually a pure and Holy mystic gold, white, and extremely light, spiritual blue. This form, if internalized, or rather successfully apprehended, and re-constructed in its pure form of "imago-genic essentia," allows for this calm peacefulness. One who internalizes this form, will have a calm sanity, the "Mind of Christ," and will be working towards the salvation of oneself and others, in the Corpus Christi. The Image of the Beast: Imago Bestia This form, has a reddish tinge to it, a smothered black, like degraded ash, and a mocking, almost pleasure ridden yellowish brown. It is a wicked form. It causes the individual who has internalized it, to be highly deceptive, to self-aggrandize, and follow a pleasure-oriented false religion, which is Platonic in nature, and ultimately blasphemous. The end goal is to set one-self up as this false God, in the place of the real God. It is the essence of the Western modern spirituality. It causes the inability to know truth, and one becomes like a beast, knowing only pleasure, power, and extremely basic and beast-like needs and necessities. It gives one a mind of a beast, as opposed to a mind of a human, and even further opposed to the "mind of Christ," which is by all means, and transcendent mind. Comments are closed.
