Josh's Creed

-

 



My faith is very important to me. It gets me through many struggles and allows me to face a life that I am a little disappointed by and have some reluctance about entering further into my future, but my faith in an infinite God gives me the strength to continue to face every day and face my difficulties and fear head on. As I developed my understanding and relationship with my Infinite God, I developed a sort of "creed" that say to myself when I'm scared or angry. It's a simple question and answer dialogue, but it sums up much of my faith and my trust.

This is my creed:

What do you believe?:

In an infinite God.


What do you believe about this infinite God?:

I believe He has a creative capacity that extends beyond the imaginations of humanity by an infinite number.


What do believe this Infinite God did with His infinite creative capacity?:

I believe He created an existence that is truly infinite to mirror His own infinity, both as the greatest demonstration of His power as well as a massive platform for His glory.


How do you think this Infinite God views you?:

I believe He loves me like a son, even given my many mistakes, failures, shortcomings, and sins.

Even given how small I am compared to His infinite creation as well as His infinite self.

So much so, that He sent Jesus to this tiny, tiny world to be a sacrifice that pays for all of my sins and mistakes so I can spend eternity with my infinite God exploring His endless creation.


With this belief system, fear is rendered impotent, and death holds no eternal sway.

No One is a Lost Cause

     There is not a single human being on the planet who is a lost cause. There is hope for anyone and everyone who still draws breath in this world. Even into eternity and the realm of God there is always hope and mercy to be found for those who lost so much and had such misfortune or detriment fall upon them in life. Jesus is the great rescuer of the lost. The great savior of sinners and broken people. The great returner of broken dreams.       To Jesus, there is no such thing as a lost cause, a hopeless case, or an impossible situation.  Even though people lose hope sometimes and sink into despair, eternity and the Kingdom of God is a place where hope never dies and the lost are found eternally, never to be lost again.  With God, all things are possible, and all those lost are findable.       Jesus specializes in the mending broken hearts and broken dreams, and eternity is a long time to have dreams fulfilled and rest i...

The Fortress of Neptune

Some people strive to turn their mind into a fortress—a Stoic "inner citadel," an impenetrable bastion of psychological and spiritual security that no danger or enemy can conquer or destroy. It’s a noble and intriguing endeavor, turning your mind into a fortress. But for myself? I would forgo the citadel and instead transform my mind into a bottomless ocean. An unfathomably deep ocean that I can retreat into, like a submarine capable of withstanding the abyssal depths. The further down you descend into this ocean, the more untouchable and unreachable you become to your enemies. It is the mental "Fortress of Neptune." Where a bottomless ocean of living water and living thoughts serves to be my impenetrable Fortress and infinite Bastion. If a bottomless ocean is my Fortress, what could destroy me? A bottomless ocean of thought and ideas. A bottomless ocean of psychological and spiritual security—indestructible and unconquerable. It’s hard to conquer an ocean and impos...

Infinitization

The Infinitization Process: A Comprehensive Exploration Introduction Infinitization refers to the process of taking a concept, thing, or system—typically understood as having limitations or boundaries—and expanding it to possess infinite depth, infinite complexity, infinite diversity, infinite nuance, and infinite dynamics. This idea transcends traditional philosophical and metaphysical approaches to existence by positioning the infinite as not merely a characteristic of God, the cosmos, or abstract mathematics but as a quality that can be applied to concepts, systems, and relationships. This process connects deeply to your previous theories on Logos, words-as-sets, words-as-fields, and the nature of infinite existence. Through this framework, the infinitization of concepts can be seen as the ultimate act of creation, transformation, and expansion.
