"In St. John’s vision of the New Heaven and Earth he says:
They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads. (Rev 22:4)
That name of God was made known to Moses, after he had removed his shoes (the false self). The name is: ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ ὤν. 'I am the Truly Existing One.' All icons of Christ have this name inscribed on them. At the world’s end, God will write this name on us."

The Attributes and Character of God
In today’s episode, we are continuing our doctrinal study of the nature of God by looking at how God’s attributes and character are represented throughout the Bible. If we are to strive for the core Bible principles to become evident in our lives, we should understand why we would undertake such a challenging stance in this world. After all, in some ways it would be much easier for us if we…

She is not only a transcendent creating deity, but also immanent and part of Nature and the world... The words of Isis inscribed on the temple at Sais in ancient Egypt sum her up for today's followers: 'I am all that is, was or ever will be.' (It is quite possible, date-wise, that Moses was familiar with this inscription... Similar form [appears] concerning God in Exodus 3:14, 'I am that I am.’)

why is religious Christmas imagery all so joyful and pleasant? where is the inherent horror of the birth of Christ? A mother is handed her newborn child, wailing and innocent. Her hands come away sticky. Red. Simply by giving her son life she has already killed him. He is doomed from the beginning. Her love will not save him from suffering. Because the thing cradled in her arms is not a baby, it is a sacrifice: born amongst the other bleating animals whose blood will one day be spilled in the name of what demands it. the night is silent with anticipation. Mary, did you know? That your womb was also a grave?
