"How does our Father, who is complete, create incompletely?"?

Question

"'Complete' doesn't mean 'finished.'"

--We Who Dream.

Answer 1

Our Father does not create incompletly. He creates perfectly. The incompleteness and the imperfections we see are a result of sin. Man was perfect in the Garden of Eden. He did not even have to work save taking care of the garden. He was given rules to obey. Told what he could and couldn't do and he disobeyed.
We cannot blame Adam alone for bringing sin upon mankind. Anybody who ever lived would have done the same thing. We have all been given the same choice that Adam was given, yet we make the same decision to disobey.
It was man,through the exercising of free will, who brought imperfection into this world. It is God,through the sacrifice of His Son that can make us complete. It is our choice to make.

Answer 2

GOD is complete but man is incomplete due to the fact that man has free will. a gift from GOD. HE meant us to be perfect and without sin but eve in the garden of eden blew it when she disobeyed GOD by eating the fruit of the forbidden tree. at that point we became incomplete by original sin. we can become complete again by believing in Christ and living a life free from sin by receiving Christ as our Lord and Saviour. i believe and always have that our GOD is a merciful ,compassionate, and loving GOD who at the end of our time here on earth will every one a second chance to enter Heaven as a complete human being who will be given another chance to become complete in a new garden of eden.

Answer 3

Maybe the goal of creating incompletely is the beginning of our self awareness! Since we were given free will, GOD understood that we would need to exercise our consciousness if we were truly to understand his message.

God Bless!

Answer 4

Imperfection is part of the illusion inherent in life.

Experience requires multiplicity. Multiplicity implies individual unwholeness. Unwholeness leads to a sense of lack. Lack incurs desire. Desire creates a movement in Consciousness. This movement is necessarily toward Wholeness.

Life is the illusory movement of unwholeness back to Wholeness, and is perfection itself.

Answer 5

The Gnostics have a whole system to explain this one. However in truth, all things are as it should be. While the Father is Perfect, we are to become perfect (Matthew 5:48), this is our inevitable destiny that we have for eternity to accomplish.

Really things move by the laws and are governed by them, these laws maintain balance. Man must use these laws to invoke growth in themselves, like a child born, we have a potentiality in the beginning of what to become, the omega is the totality of this potential come in us. The Laws are set in order so that our alpha of unknowing reaches the omega of knowing. God did not create us imperfect, for whatever created has an end. Rather our higher souls have always been and it is and was that lack of experiential knowledge, that set souls out in search for individuality so they could grow into completion, and full acquaintance with the one from whom they abide within. So just as the single divided within itself, in order so each aspect of our being becomes complete, we within ourselves divided our being in order to become complete through the various realities that were our emanation of being. Thus by reason of division did what is imperfect come about, so that the whole of creation could reach its end. Ignorance became a product, this product produced construct, which came to serve the necessity of refinement in become harmonious through development and self discovery.

The Father is not author of incompletion, such a thing was invoked by completion, since it fit the need for the overcoming of the defect that came to be in regards of unknowing, the alpha of ignorance.

From the Gospel of Truth by Valentinus, ""It is he who created the fullness and the fullness is in him" (Gospel of Truth 19:8-9)

Those within the Father "were unacquainted with the Father since it was he whom they did not see"(Gospel of Truth 28:32-29:1).

"Ignorance of the Father caused agitation and fear. And the agitation grew dense like fog, so that no one could see. Thus error found strength" (Gospel of Truth 17:9-20)

All incompleteness, all error, all of the deficiency is, was, and will be caused by a lack of knowing in its simplicity. When one truly knows thy self, they will know God and knowing God they will know the Father.

Answer 6

God gave us free will. it like a learning clause in our life. It's not incompletness but 'add-on-edness' as best as i can explain it.

Answer 7

I can cook an egg sunny side up, over easy, over medium, hard boiled, soft boiled, poached, as an omelet, soufflé, or whatever . . .

He's creating . . . who's going to tell him what to do?

Excuse me God, I'd like my creation with a side of bacon please.

:-)

Answer 8

A short discourse requires a short response!

"VERY CAREFULLY!"

Answer 9

What do you mean?
We grow up. we mature.
We are not complete when we are born.
IS that what you refer to?
