Action to Moral to Love to God

Let me guide the readers that in this piece of writing, I am aiming to decode understanding that appears to be no more mysterious.

1. To begin with, why did God need Israel and Gentiles as two independent but interdependent groups of people.
2. If Love is the only source of provision made on this earth for humanity to flourish and grow, then from where did this concept of right or wrong or good came into existence. And, became part of everyday experiences.

I want you to believe that these two above statements were never a question in the first place and these were self explanatory facts. But, I am sure the explanation below is not something new and has reached you through some God’s believers before me but I felt enjoy writing these for my self and others.

Let’s say, God is a creator and because he has created us we hold some of that attribute to create something or the other by either by mind or by heart. That is to say either by actions or by words, either rationally or emotively. Now, let’s stop here. Imagine, you do nothing, in terms of physical or intelligence work. But, even in that case your mind is producing constant thoughts for you to deal with. In that moment, you are a creator, perhaps passive one who is only producing thoughts, but as active as any creator producing any good. Always remember, everything begins with thought. Now, it’s up to you whether or not you utilise that thought into action. For qualifier, thoughts are not produce but they are there because one exists.

A counter view would suggest that yes it’s true that thoughts exists with the simple existence of human beings, but there is a degree with that thought which either makes it nascent and unexpressive or thoughts that are experiential or mature thoughts. Here, morality comes into play. The act of creating anything demands, first a thought and then an action. For the purpose of understanding, let’s assume that this action should be real time value added action. This means moral value should be there to call it an action for creating something. Therefore, this would omit actions like, eating, drinking, sleeping and waking up. As for this discussion, I would like to call such activities as daily routine and inescapable actions of any creature who lives on the face of earth.

Coming to the main premise, for example you have two friends asking you for 500 rupees each, knowing you always have 1000 rupees extra by the end of the month. Now here, you give one 500 rupees note to only one of your friend and tell the other you don’t have anymore money left. Now, as things progress, we as an external observers of the scenario has no cue to guess you yhelping only one friend among the two. Perhaps, this illustrates that love in the friendship is the only provision, where morality questioned is expecting you to manage the situation may be in some other way, perhaps, you are in a position to help both your friends at the same time.

Now, let’s assume the two plausible given scenarios:

1. You had one extra 500 rupees but you didn’t use it to help the other friend.
2. You only had one 500 rupees note, therefore you couldn’t help the other friend.

Both the scenarios are questionable for the action taken by the thought emerged and pushed you to have taken that action. But, let’s stop here to avoid further explanation assuming that the reader has got the point made here. Therefore, let’s return to the second question asked above.

This goes to suggest an answer for the second question first that good and right or wrong exist because human beings are action beings. Human beings are in uninterrupted motion to create something or the other by their actions and therefore every action performed inherits this experience of good or right and wrong attached to it by our ownself of judgement.

In brief, morality that live outside of our being by the law of nature equally resides inside of human beings. Only, if humans wish to practice it righteously with active love toward anything and everything. And for every moral action, happening on the earth, we should make human beings responsible and not God.

Coming to answering the first question, God created two groups like Israel and Gentiles, perhaps to reduce the morality of judgement that innately exist in the human beings. Hence, they are independent and at the same time interdependent groups.

Let’s say, God chosen a particular set of people by the name Israel, who then expected to perform as suggested by the prophets of those times. Whereby just not fulfilling the commandments, but also setting an example for the rest of the world, known as Gentiles. Accordingly, following simple laws of human life mentioned by God to human beings are beneficial and therefore to put such promises to test by the man is a futile exercise.

Giving fundamental rights to the first group of people to choose between the wrong and right, because all creatures are born with morality. As, this freedom was first experienced and exercised by the Adam and Eve.

This makes previous made claim more stronger; holding human beings responsible for every moral action and not God because God in advance provided human beings with conscience and first fundamental set of rights to choose between the good or bad by one’s own set of judgement. And, this ends answering the first question. This goes to suggest an answer for the second question first that good or bad and right or wrong exist because human beings are action beings who are in uninterrupted motion to create something or the other by their actions and therefore every action performed inherits this experience of good and bad or right and wrong attached to it by our ownself of judgement.

This goes to suggest whatever you see as right or wrong and bad or good, is first out of your conscience moral, this may vary amongst people. Second, if anything qualifies to be either bad or good, then the bases is your actions, because as human beings and humanity is in constant motion to create something or the other, being the creator yourself.

The most pertinent example of morality at work is when God created the earth as mentioned in the book of Genesis chapter 1, God said everything created good and human beings very good. This goes to define things discussed above that every action performed by the human being is good or not depends on the virtue of that action performed.

Thus, let’s work toward love that is unconditional because anything that is unconditional will always surpass even the standards of morality that is conceived by you to be true.

Thank you for reading.
