INTRODUCTION OF CRISTO RAUL TO THE HISTORY OF THE POPES, ESPECIALLY, AND TO THE HISTORY OF THE REFORMATION, GENERALLY

 

FIRST PART

THEOLOGICAL

 

We must to say it, “Yes we are at War!”. Now let’s see how we have arrived to this conclusion and why we can say it without exposing ourselves to some kind of pathological delusion. Yes, we have heard, didn’t we? :  “Faith is a neurosis”.  But what else could we expect from the enemy, lilies and roses? We are the Christians, we have been exposed to all kinds of monstrous persecutions since the day of the Birth of Christ, many Christians are being murdered in this very hour because their Faith, our Faith. And notwithstanding this state of war we got to say it, “Yes, the worst of our enemies came out of from among us”. We, the Christians, nourished them, we made them strong, to live, to love, to fight against our Enemy. And we failed, they turned their back on us, they went to the enemy and fought us. They declared War on Christianity and handled against us the most lethal weapons : Science, Politics, Money”.

But what is it all this about? We may love our fellow men as we love ourselves, and yet it would be a  non-Christian attitude to  leave our souls running to the side of the Devil. In  the Words of our King : “To win the world at the price of your soul?, not worth, don’t even think about it”. So, whatever we think and do we hold on our Faith, no breach allowed, no breach to be made, our Intellect having being created to reach the Likeness of our Divine Creator we can take a look at our History, especially, and the History of the World, generally, from the highness of the Thought of God.

And departing from the mentality of the generations that preceded us, we ask ourselves : “Is there any glory to boast about in a Creation crawling its way through a Perpetual State of Civil War World?”. I mean, God is infinitely Clever and infinitely Powerful and all He could think of was it this play, a History of Horror?”. No wonder Calvin’s answer : “Yes, God created some to be demons and some to be angels”. Hey bro, guess what Calvin was, angel or demon?

All in all is nonsense. We are sons of God. We know positively that our Father in heaven never meant this play. Hard to deny it is not so, isn’t? Can we really just turn our back on those poor fools who declared : “God is dead?”. They are dead. God is alive, the question is “how were they pushed to such extreme view?”.

And so the time is come to look around us, not in Space but in Time. Because that what really make us living Images of God is the power of our souls to walk in Time, to shoot our eyes to the other side of the horizon and create the Future from the Past, when the Past is the present day, this is to say, Here and Now. No animal, no species got this power, and we see this, that the most humans walk away from God the most likely they walk into a new realm of evolution :  from man to beast. To this new species, from man to beast, Time means nothing, and accordingly they move like the beast, to whom the Intellect is a tool for living, just as the four legs and big claws are for the jungle’s wild king.

We see, we understand, we don’t like it, we got to think why all this is happening. God is infinitely Powerful, God is infinitely Wise. Do we miss something? May it be that God is infinitely Himself and He can create both, a play of glory and a play of horror, and in our case we simply are His Horror Playtime? The Universe is just the Playground where God disguised Himself, following Calvin, now in Christ, now in Satan, and so He kills His time?

Were we not Christians if we give way to Calvin’s answer. Calvin was absolving the Devil from Free-Will, and as he who got not Free-will he is a beast, and as beasts cannot be taken into a Court of Justice, so the Devil; ergo, Christ was another actor in God’s Play, there is no Freedom at all, the Protestants are angels, the Catholics are demons. Hey Man, we are the champions of the world, let’s kill them all!

So, we were to the this side of the abyss. Darkness is all around and confusion is our fate. Where is the light? Where are those promises of God : “Peace will reign, Justice will rule, sickness will be no more, hunger will be gone, Love will fill the heart of Mankind”. Was he God playing us one more time?

Enough, then, with this contemporizing. We stand our ground, the Innocence of God is beyond discussion. And even when He took responsibility on the Fall of Man he did so because  He was Innocent. He had no part whichever in the Fall of Man. Calvin was a liar and son of a Liar. Christ was not playing on us the God Shepherd, He was our King buying from God the Right to Conquer our World and be the Leader of the Nations in the Day of the Final Battle between God and His Enemy for the Universal Salvation of the Human Kind. Christ’s Blood was not Hollywood tomato. Calvin, simply, gave way to the Speech of the Devil.

But, who is the Enemy of God? This is the main question : “Father, why have you forsaken me?”.  It was the Question  to the World from the Son of God. He knew he was going to rise from the dead. He was the Son who said : “Let there be Light”, He was that same Jesus hanging of the Christ who said : “Let’s make Man to our Image”, ergo, a son of God. Jesus wasn’t just getting delirious because a pain, common to the two fellows at His sides. To be crucified  was the death penalty of the day. Nothing to be scared for. Jesus wasn’t being treated beyond the limits of the endurance of men to go through pain, hardship and hell. He wasn’t protesting : He was making us a Question : “WHY am I being crucified?”.

Because God was at War!  Because God is at War!

Which lead us to the Question wherefrom there is no turning back. “Who is the Enemy of God?”.

The Devil? That fool who thought He could beat God in a face to face fight?

I mean, a creature of God Himself, a creature whom He created from the Dust, as we have been, declaring War on God, His Creator?

The Foundation of the Human History is clear : “Let’s make Man to our likeness”. Ergo, all the sons of God were created to the Image of the Son, to be sons of God. And as we know that the Son is One with the Father, in all glory and power, we infer from this that all the sons of God were created to grow in Intelligence without  limits and move in Time on the Wings of the Omniscience of God, their Universal Creator. So we too. Then? It was from Free-Will that the sons of God declared War on God. They knew perfectly what they were doing. The only thought left to us it this : “Where their Madness came from?”.

Listen to this : God is infinitely wise, God is infinitely powerful, and God’s Innocent on the Fall of Man is Infinite.

Excuse me, Sir, have I read well?

Well, for all I know, yeah.

And suddenly a stupid piece of flesh and bones goes to God and spit in His Face : War on you, I want you dead”, right?

I mean, don’t you see something is wrong in this way of reading the Roots of our Faith? What are we missing? Because being infinitely wise and powerful, and infinitely wanting not the Fall of Man, “How was possible that the Fall came to happen?”.

Are we not missing something? “WHY did it happen?”, “Why have you forsaken me?”, in the lips of Adam. He was dead, but his son, the son of Man, took it up from his father’s grave and shoot his father’s question to the World, the Question he made to himself and to God right after his Fall: WHY is this happening?

The Answer we have been given got many faces. The Classic, the Catholic, leave in the blue the final words and, accordingly, give us Dogma as the Shield, Sword and Armor thanks to which Ignorance can’t beat Faith. The Calvinist reformation said theses final words : The World is a fake, God is the Faker and there is nothing to complaint about it,  hail those who are born to glory and to hell with those born to go to hell.

Lutheran Reformation did not enter in these matters and left the Catholic answer as it was given by the Church’s Fathers of Old. No wonder the Hate between Luther and Calvin; in Theology, Luther was a Catholic. Calvin was defending the Devil, and damming Christ for deceiving us all. According to Christ, this is, according to the Catholic Theology, to the Church’s Fathers of Old, God had nothing to do with the Fall of Man, and if He did feel responsible of it, what He did, He felt so because the Assassin was a son of God, He knew that that “bull” had been already found beating His Creation, and He found Himself incapable of stopping that “bull” to keep on hitting His Law.

Before this point of Ignorance, this is to say, “WHY a creature dared to declared WAR on God? and WHY God could not stop a son of His to declare War on His Kingdom?, the Fathers of the Church build the Catholic Dogma : God is Love, the Son came down from Heaven because Love for Men, the Devil declared War on the Kingdom of God because he wanted for Himself the Throne of the Son of God. All Christians have to stand this ground and he who does not, he is not a son of God, he is not a Christian. Ergo, Calvin was not a Christian.

But, again and again, the Dogma was not born to answer the Question WHY, but to protect and defend Faith until the Answer was born. No wonder that Luther, recognizing his limits, though declaring War on Catholics because the Roman Church, he did not, under no circumstances, break with the Catholic Theology.

Now, we have made our point. Yes, where came from the madness of Adam’s murderer? We have him there, Adam, on his knees, watching the world’s wars, his soul hit by the Horrors the World is been through ever since, and having given full thought to the Question : He raises his voices from his bleeding heart and says : “WHY?”.

The Question passes straight from son to Father. If the son ask himself “Why is this happening?”, the Father ask Himself : “Why has this come to happen?”.

God doesn’t need to think of Himself as theology thinks of God. He is who He is. He was Him, the Father of Jesus, the King of the Jews, who created the Big-Bang out of which the Old Cosmos was reborn and a New Cosmos created to expand forever came to light.

Yes, God can blow away from the face of the Universe anything, everything, at any moment. He can create so many world as He likes and destroy them at Will. Who would rise his voice to accuse Him of being cruel and merciless? The thing is that God has “a creative soul”. He loves Creation. To create is His star. Creation is His Art, that what Music is to the Musician, Painting to the painter, Writing to the writer, Creation of World and Universes is to God. Creation is His Vocation. He loves what He does and He needs to do what He loves. And as a True Creator he feels that love for His Creation natural to “the creator’s soul”. He would not destroyed, He will push His Power to the limits, always running behind Perfection, always fighting for the Wonder of the wonders, a Wonder in which to sign His Name and be His Glory.

Oh yeah we all heard this, didn’t we?

And where is the Glory in this Masterpiece of Horror the Human Kind lives?

“I didn’t”, says God, “I didn’t sign the Book of History of Mankind. Someone else, while I was resting before writing the Epilogue, came around and sign his name at the bottom of my work, stealing the Book of Man’s History from me”.

Our Question is “Who or What”?

Adam’s Question was WHY? And his son in Abraham, the King of the Jews, rescued his question from the grave, got the answer and died in God’s Name, for the sake of Mankind. On the way from His resurrection to us terrible Chapters have been added to the Book of the History of Christianity, in especial, and to the History of the World, in general.

In the Search for the Understanding that will free us all from the Ignorance against which the Dogma was made, it is only natural to rise our Thought to the History of God Himself. If there is a War on God, already raging, it is because God has an Enemy. And we are not talking of the Devil, that mad, once a son of God,  who thought he could put God on His knees; we are talking of an Enemy of the Nature of God, this is to say, an Uncreated Enemy.

We are talking about Death. But as many of our Christians fellows do, probably, have little idea of the meaning of this Word : “Uncreation”, let’s  take a walk to a time beyond Time.

 

UNCREATION

 

“God is uncreated”, we say. With this we mean “God cannot be created”.  God is not the highest phase of Evolution. All the poor guys around the Earth saying that they are gods, reincarnation of God, and so forth, they are poor mad people who had been forced to swallow madness as wisdom. We see this madness working its way from the days after the Fall, when the kings declared themselves to be living gods on Earth; the Romans rescued this madness in the days after Octavio Augustus; too late to be taken seriously though. Anyway, the madness of the mind sails the ocean of ignorance in which trouble waters our History was thrown because the Fall of Man. No one, not even the sons of God dare to say of themselves : “we are gods”. And to those who did, the answer of God was a laconic one: “Yeah, you are indeed, but you will bite the dust as any other beast”.

So, we have to get rid of madness and ignorance if we want to see reality as it is. “God exists in Infinity since Eternity”. Well, the Cosmos if finite, they say.  Or answer cannot be more direct , if Infinity is hard to theorize, to sustain the hypothesis of an infinite space inside a finite cosmos, as the enunciation proclaims, is the product of a madness. Of course, to give to this madness of infinity in “finity” a legal course the mad men of the XXth Century give way in to Fiction, and engendered that wonder of wonders: The Science-Fiction Hypothesis called Relativity. The nature of mental madness related to the Intellect  it is a pathological medium pushing reality out of the way, to bring the fiction in which the madman lives as the New World Reality, the only scenario in which the madman’s fantasy can survive. The intellectual madman got to twist the world’s reality, he got to curve Time an, created the voyage in space through holes in imaginary fields, and so on and so forth. He is a madman and thinks as such. Infinity is a word we understand and our Intellect comprehend; a “finity” involving Infinity is a madness no understandable for the Human Intellect and accordingly the madman have to twist to the extremes his fantasy to the point of absolute delusion, which is the state of intellect in which Science actually abides.

We have these Three Factors : Eternity, Infinity and God. Take one by one and try to apprehend fully their Nature. Obviously as we are born yesterday, have never leave Earth, and have never seen God, we can recur to the madman twisting infinity into “finity”, Eternity into a snake biting his tail, and burying God as man’s madness. Whether the Astronomical Revolution by the Radio-Astronomy Technology has put down that Perfect Castle on the air of the XXth Century’s Schizoid Madman, it does not matter. A madman does not care about the Sanity of the Sane Man; he is the sane. That’s why is a madman.

However, Time is related to Movement, and Space to Matter. When we say that “Eternity, Infinity and God are Uncreated”, we are saying that Matter is Uncreated and Energy, the source of Universal Motion, is uncreated also. Which lead us to Saint Thomas and Newton. People that we esteem a lot but whom we will bid farewell and follow our journey from Earth to Heaven.

And where Life and Death come from? ‘Cause it is God Himself who said “I only  have been formed, there is no God but me!”. Words which confront us with a marvelous question. “I have been formed”, and yet God is Uncreated, God is not the last highest phase of an evolution process. When He says I have been formed he is not speaking on His Nature, but a process of Formation related to His Intellect, this is to say, to His relation with Eternity and Infinity, Space and Matter, this is to say : With the Structure of the Universal Reality. A Reality in which Life and Death were Uncreated entities.

Let’s put it this way, God was the metaphysical Cause of the Universal Motion. But the Universal Motion itself rested upon the Forces of the Uncreation System. God was the Eternal Wanderer in Time and Space. The Universes came and went but He always remained. Life and Death were parts of the Uncreated System. The Worlds came and went in a perfect Cosmic System where Life and Death were the two faces of the same Cosmos.  There was not confrontation between Life and Death. God had no part in the succession of the universes and the birth and death of the worlds. He was the Child of Infinity and Eternity, so to speak.

But one day God had a dream. Wonderful as that dream was, Immortality for all, it meant the Need of the extirpation of the Uncreation of Death. I mean, Immortality for all it meant a brain chirurgical operation, so to speak, by the own patient. Uncreation could not all by itself do this extirpation of Death from its own System. God could have said : “Well, don’t bother, it’s all right”. He didn’t. He wanted Immortality for All and He meant it. A process of Formation of the Intelligence of God had to be started, at the end of which God would be the Physical Cause of the Creation, after which a Final Battle would be begun between Death and God Himself , the Goal of Which will be the Extirpation of Death from the Body of Infinity and Eternity by God Himself.

This Final Battle is the War was proclaimed on The Holy Ghost in the Eden Garden. That Day was the Day God saw with His own eyes His true Enemy, this is to say, the Day Infinity and Eternity laid at His feet for the sake of the extirpation of Death from its Body. Once done, the Creation System would be forever born.

That was the Answer Adam could not find to his WHY? This was the Answer the son of Man and King of the Jews was writing in the Book of History when He said : “Why have forsaken me?”.

 

DEATH  AND CHRISTIANITY

 

We would revisited the History of God in the Divine History of Jesus to follow the Formation of God in the Science of Creation, the Creation of God’s World, the New Cosmos and the Destruction of the Old, the Uncreation of the Father and the Son, and the Wars of the Empire of God, the mind in coming at the Feet of the son of Man hanging on His Cross, with the desire to follow Him to the grave and  share His resurrection, His Rising to the Throne of the Universal Kingdom, on which Basis the New Cosmos, the System of Creation has been founded upon the Rock of the Victory of the God of Infinity and Eternity over Death. What is on stake since the Victory of the Father and the Son in the Holy Spirit is the Salvation of the Human Kind. And to reach the field of Victory we have to see with our own eyes the Enemy once God saw with His, DEATH, because DEATH is our Enemy.

It is Death, an Uncreated Force, which has been spreading Terror upon the Human Nations ever since the Fall, whose obscure goal was to make Mankind abominable to His Creator. After all, we are adopted sons, What’s God’s problem?

The Problem with God is That He is LOVE: and He loves His sons, adopted though, as true sons; and He would not give up.
