Cannot Serve Two Masters....
>>Thanks, but "create" is the more apt word here. We are created in the "image and likeness" of God. Thus we too are creators, not simply passive "receivers".>>
If we are "creators" then this puts us into the posiiton of serving two masters: 1) ourselves and 2) God our creator.
Being "a receiver" is far, far from being passive. Freely receiving and sharing His energy, light and Love is the very essence and definition of ACTIVITY and LIFE itself.
The illusion of "creating" requires that I believe that WE/ME/I am/are really THE SOURCE of energy, light and Love.
And this is nothing more and nothing less than an illusion. It may appear to "be active" and all that, but it's still a smoke, fire, fear spin cycle show.
For you to be a creator you need to be able to claim that you are the source. And this is a baldfaced LIE. But there are plenty of disconnected spirits in the spiritual realm that believe this is true and they spin this LIE through us anyway for we are all simply conduits for energy, light and Love - some of this energy can be received and shared FREELY and UNCONDITIONALLY and some of this energy can be received and reflected/shared CONDITIONALLY.
If you take the position of being "a creator" you are by definition, making conditional claims to being the or "a" source of the energy.
There can be only ONE source of ALL that is infinite and unconditional, all that is FREE and all that is LIFE and LOVE itself - ie. our ONE Lord God in Heaven Jesus Christ.
Giving credit to this ONE source FREES us to become ONE with Him as FREE conduits for the expression of His perfect FREE WILL which is the essense of Life which is LOVE itself.
For "...we are created in the "image and likeness" of God."
This means that we become ONE with His image and ONE with His likeness as long as His energy, light and Love is freely received and shared with the universe in accordance with His perfect Will.
For anything with claims of "creation" immediately inverts and perverts the flow of His energy, light and Love. For we are then putting ourselves in the role of being a "creator" which is the same as serving another master. It's done all the time. It's the very nature of man's egoically insane position buried deep inside these Black Hole Wizard of Oz-like Castles of illusion.
