For now, I don't want to get into discussion about pantheism, or any narrow theological conceptions relating to doctrine.
I just have to say--was compelled to say . . . I was just in bed, going to sleep. Was drifting into that place where the veil is thin and I dare say thinning (at least for me it has been for a while now, in a peculiarly poignant way.) . . .
I was loosely, but deliberately thinking of God, meditating on Him, and then suddenly, this is what I Saw: God is all there is! He encomapsses everything. He IS "everything"!
He is God! The I AM is the ALL IN ALL!
It is wondrous, astounding, blessed, wonderful, beyond words, awfully awesome to glimpse. . . !
I also dare say, that, grasping, looking into just a slight portion of this expansive vision--the ALL IN ALL--He compelled me to get out of bed and quick, before I thought too much about it, tell you!
He is it! He--The Lord--GOD . . . IS THAT HE IS! THAT IS ALL!
His fact and reality and Being . . . is beyond full comprehension, encompasses All! GOD IS ALL THERE IS . . . is what I was compelled to hurry and run through the dark of the sleeping house tonight, jump on this computer, while the vision was still fresh in my mind's eye . . . to humbly . . . and I know, ever so inadequately share. YET share He said! HE IS! HE IS ALL THERE IS! That is what I Saw.
(I'm going to stop here and not delve into all the philosophical, theological, doctrinal etc., arguments or winnowing craftings around that iteration. Just going to leave it at that for now and pray The Spirit communicates the same realization to you! It is such a relief! It is THE RELIEF! Because, also, HE IS GOOD! AND of course, HOLY! And yes, I know what Holy means, in that, He is also apart, separate--therein lies the great mystery, in which, I hope and expect and pray to explore for eternity! BUT, here I go, already starting to parse. I must leave it for now at the vision of GOD IS ALL THERE IS. Praise God!)

Greetings Dear Bro. T.,
Neat. Thank you. BTW, I was just thinking about this concept the other day. And it's no
coincidence that you brought this up and to the forefront today.
What I thought about is how the angels will admit that even THEY are in total awe of the
creator and Lord of all. So, when one considers the fact that an angel's understanding is
way above our thinking and pondering, this is a very humbling position. It's like comparing
us to ants to what we really know and understand about the Spirit, the Universe and the
Lord and creator. It's totally incomprehensible. Uriel mentioned this fact to Esdras (Ezra).
It's like that phrase which says, "Be still and know that I Am." It's interesting how Uriel
used examples and parables to explain this to Ezra. They're just things that we will never
really understand while in our earthly bodies. I think that this of His divine plan too??
Peace, love, and the Lord's favor,
Roger
Thank you for obeying Father and getting this message out to us.
I bought a house last month and am reading the entire Bible out loud in it, one day at a time. I'm on the story of Joseph, which has been my favorite since I was a child. I'm not exactly sure why it is my favorite. But God revealed to me that He knew it would be my favorite before it even happened. And Possibly even Joseph knew it would be my favorite.
I was on God's mind that long ago.
Further, you were on His mind that long ago, too.
