Divine Being

Many Scientist and Sociologists: have the common understanding that since the dawn of creation earthly bipedal humanoids have had a yearning to acknowledge something or someone/s greater than themselves. As time progressed on this blue cosmic dot, we now call earth; acknowledgement transcended to worship, devotion, even sacrifice of varying sorts. As time further progressed, intelligence increased and as humans we began to classify these superhuman/natural beings as deities and or gods.

Present day educated men and women further classify different groups/civilizations’ of people as poly (many) theistic and mono (one) theistic. These classifications extend both into the past, present and future. Many debates on the true existence and divine nature of these beings have occurred.

The method of ascertaining divine, true, and enduring on my part delves with what is:

• Clearly documented existence
• Deeds of supernatural actions that can be verified by history.
• Motive of deity in relation to none deists (you and I).
• Continuing existence for all time.

This criterion of my personal research is a simplistic approach to better help the reader.

To help narrow the field of study even further, and to eliminate this becoming a tomb, I will endeavor to focus on a well known deity found in what is commonly called the bible.  I will in other blogs deal with the relevance and brief summary of the modern works combined and canonized as the Bible.

Let us pull a passage from one of the Books in the Bible (A Collection of 66 books and letters) specifically the book of Hebrews. In Chapter 11:1 it discusses the subject of faith.  Faith is not a relatively new concept, it origins have been displayed since the beginning of time. Unlike many other historical texts outside of the "Bible" it makes a successful attempt at defining "faith." "..As being the substance of things hoped for, but not actually seen, yet believed to exist either now or soon to come."

Pagans, Mono/Polytheist for millennium have used this practice of faith to not only substantiate but to propitiate their belief in their god/s, among other tactics not to be discussed at this time.

So we can conclude thus far:

• The divine being/s have existed for a very long time
• Faith is tool used to continue on existence.
• Defined Methodology in studying deity/s is important.

In my next blog I will delve farther into Faith and the Existence of Monotheism throughout the ages using a defined method of study. This will lead to further exhortation of popular modern deity.

As this is my first blog please feel free to give feedback that would allow me to fine tune my "newbie" blogging dynamics.
