The God of theology consists of nothing other than words about God. We have created the God we talk about (and pray to) by talking about (and praying to) God.
The God of theology is a product of projection. Whatever we say about God is a reflection of our interpretation, understanding, belief of/about God. When we think about, talk about, God, we are thinking about, talking about, the God in our mind.
What we say about God is what we have heard about God–and nothing new about God is allowed to be said! Say something new about God and you will be labeled heretical and apostate. We can only say things about God that have always been said (and everyone agrees is true) about God.
This makes us the origin of God. The creators of God. The source of God. And there is no God beyond the God we say is God. But. There is That Which Has Always Been Called God. This God is before and beyond theology, and there is very little that can be said about this God beyond what we have experienced and know to be so because we have experienced it. And, the God of our experienced has been experienced by all human beings everywhere from the beginning of human beings. And we project onto that God all that has been thought and said about God from the start. In order to know that God we have to abandon, toss aside, throw away, everything that has ever been said about God from the beginning. The three words that are acceptable to use in the sphere of God are Tao, Psyche, Intuition. These are names for the experience of God. God can be experienced as Tao, Psyche, Intuition, but this is not the God of theology, doctrine, dogma. This is only the God of experience calling us to “Be still and know I am the truth and nothing but the truth, here, now, always and forever. And look to me for guidance and direction always and forever.”
