Chapter23

Personal relationship with God

Essenceism confirms the evident fact that the concept of the ideal world prepared by the Creator has not been realized. In addition, according to this system, this may not happen until we have our bad reality, which began with tragic events at the very beginning of human history. Of course, people don't think that way. Rather, they think that after what happened in the so-called Garden of Eden, the world normally develops as if nothing special had happened. It was simply meant to be, that is, these are the laws of nature or, in the case of believers, these were the Creator's plans. Even if we treat the events in this Garden symbolically, we still do not think about whether the development of the world is different than planned.

However, it is worth drawing conclusions from this. Essenceism definitely shows that at the very beginning the Creator's concept stopped in place and has not moved forward since then. There has been a completely different development of our civilization, which was inspired by another "creator", Satan. That is why essenceism calls our world hell, although we cannot see devils running around with pitchforks.

So, according to essenceism, the concept of the ideal world initiated by the Original Being stopped at the level to which the first people came at the time of the fall, that is, at the individual level. The sphere of good also stopped then and the sphere of evil began to form. Since then, people spiritually controlled by the forces of evil have begun to build the present civilization, in which the family, generational, social, national level has been created. At these levels, a reality other than divine has already existed from the beginning. This is because God only works with the reality created by Him, and this only applies to the individual spirituality of man. It is only because we have a spiritual person born by Him that there is still a weak level of awareness of the existence of "pure good" from the Creator Himself. Despite the enormous efforts of Jesus Christ, the concept of the Creator remains on an individual level.

Therefore, praying to God or invoking good forces from the spiritual world in matters higher than the individual level has no logical justification. This particularly applies to world, national, economic or political matters. For example, a call to God to free a nation from the occupation of a hostile regime does not make sense. It concerns a state completely contrary to his conception, i.e. a state of evil of which He knows nothing.

Our reality is therefore different than in the plans of the Creator. That is why we cannot experience true happiness at levels higher than individual, and even there the state of this feeling is limited. This applies, for example, to falling in love or winning a sporting competition.

To sum up: the level of God's Providence, that is, the level of God's laws that we know leading to perfection, concerns only the individual level. Only on it can the human sphere of good be based. Only then it exerts an influence on other levels of human life.
