Aspects of divinity? What do you think? Does this ring true to you?

Question

This is from a book. If you have an objective thought or two on the passage it would be nice to hear what you think.

"Christianity is primarily a religion of cleavage, demonstrating to man his duality and so laying the foundation for future unity. This is a most needed stage and has served humanity well; the purpose and intent of Christianity has been definite and high and it has done its divine work. Today it is in the process of being superseded, but by what new formulation of truth is not yet revealed. The light is slowly pouring into man's life and in this lighted radiance he will formulate a new religion and arrive at a fresh enunciation of ancient truth. Through the lens of the illumined mind, he will shortly see aspects of divinity hitherto unknown. Has it ever dawned on you that there may be qualities and characteristics of the divine nature, latent as yet within the form, and for which we have neither words nor other adequate medium of expression? So it is."

Answer 1

One thing I can clearly tell that it is written unnecessarily complex and sound typical of those authors who look at religion or sprituality from hardcore intellectual view-point. I doubt if author of this book actually will be able to reach the common people.

Additionally, this writeup does indicate that this is highly individualized view-point of the author and is not associated with any factual analysis. One thing I do agree with that humanity is progressing toward seeing the deep aspects of divinity that is still remaining unfold from ancient wisdom. And no doubt about qualities of divine that can't be explained or described in known human expressions because language and all forms of expressions with humanity are primarily driven from what we have learnt from experience or derived from emperical evolution and needless to say that divine experience is not one of the known experience in the world we see. I believe that divine experience is beyond our 5 senses and hence can't be descrived no matter how intellectually tried.

Answer 2

Kind of hard to read but here we go. This "ancient truth" is easy to explain. It's humanist idealism. It's the belief in one's self as knowing what we know b/c we figured it out for ourselfs. It has already started, I live in America and you can see how people live for thierselves and not for the Almighty. The "light is slowing pouring into man's life" that you said may not be a light. It's just self promotion. B/c people questioning God, it puts a definence there. Just like your parents, the first time you act out against them, it's like freedom, we feel we can do anything, but then our parents put us back into place.
It's our choice to walk the path or stray from the path.

Answer 3

Once again, you have cited a reference that has nothing to do with belief (heart and soul of religion).

It is extremely simple: What do you believe?

Answer 4

Sounds like New Age rubbish!
Best to stick to the Bible.

Answer 5

You can't replace Jesus Christ.
