Many quotes presented where these small extractions which have been emphasized for various reasons can by them-self contain text or data that requires additional explanation, other than just presenting them as a response to implications or attempts to be informative, yet many are not explained?
Faith is the inspiration of the spiritized creative imagination.
Being that “Faith” becomes an “inspiration”, and held as truth by a holder, how is it “spiritized” or better yet what is “spiritized” in relation to one’s “imagination”? Here one assumes that “inspiration” comes from a resulting feeling or image of a potential thought.
prayer becomes the great unifier of the various inspirations of the creative imagination
Being that “prayer” can be associated with requests for either help or something that may be lacking, I can see where it can be a “unifier” but, how does it apply to “imagination”? Where “inspirations” can be associated to wishing that a potential result may be granted, yet in the same sense, has already been imagined to be received, even if only a hopeful expectation.
The spirit-gravity circuit literally pulls the soul of man Paradiseward.
What is a “spirit-gravity circuit”? Literally ? And if “the soul of man” becomes spirit after death, and if the “spirit-gravity” can effect the spirit soul, then spirit must contain some type of spirit-matter in order to be pulled by gravity as we may imagine it to be. So without knowing what a “spirit-gravity circuit” is, how can the statement above make any sense?
spiritual-gravity action is the qualitative measure of the living energy of divinity.
Based on the previous expression, and then this one, where the action of “spiritual-gravity” associated with the “living energy of divinity”, okay, that is possibly understandable but in relation to pulling the “soul”, and then also assuming that “divinity” seems to be everywhere, how can “gravity” be applied as an explanation of “qualitative measure”? Sounds logical but until the various components are understood or defined, how can one truly ascertain its true meaning?
As a mortal creature chooses to “do the will of the Father in heaven,” so the indwelling spirit becomes the father of a new reality in human experience.
To “do the will of the Father” cannot be a choice if there is only one to choose from, but how does one know what would be the true “will of the Father” until after having chosen, and already is a part of one’s experience, and part of their reality? In general this statement implies that the choice has been influenced and by having chosen correctly affects the “indwelling spirit”, but to what result that may effect the individual?
In so far as man’s evolving morontia soul becomes permeated by truth, beauty, and goodness as the value-realization of God-consciousness, such a resultant being becomes indestructible.
Okay, as the soul evolves, through “truth, beauty, and goodness”, which these attributes can be interpreted differently by many, how does or what is, “value-realization”? And if this “value-realization” is only associated to someone who is God-conscious, does it imply that this “indestructible” being is material, and not spiritual, where when the soul becomes spirit, and as we know that energy cannot be destroyed, only changed, this might be the association to “indestructible”, but the sentence requires speculation.
My purpose, is to show that many of the responses using UB quotes, and more specifically certain sections of these quotes, often do not really explain or even relate to an implied response to someone elses statement or possible explanation. This is not to focus on anyone individual because I use the same method, in hopes to express my own understanding, and is relative to the readers own understanding of the text in the UB. Sometimes the UB cannot be taken literally as presented.
