Unkulunkulu is equated with Umvelinqangi, the "first out-comer," emphasizing his role as creator without implying a divine transcendence like a heavenly god.
Pre-missionary beliefs lacked a supreme deity; missionaries later equated this lord with Utikxo (among Amakxosa) or God.
It is not a human-shaped god as in some other traditions.
Umvelinqangi is a sky god.
It is a sign that the god is at work, and it is often called the “voice” of the sky lord.
Others rely on oral evidence and hold that it is native, a sky god greater than Unkulunkulu.
"Then Adam said to Eve, 'When we were on the mountain we were comforted by the Word of God that conversed with us; and the light that came from the east shown over us.
But now the Word of God is hidden from us; and the light that shown over us is so changed as to disappear, and let darkness and sorrow come over us.
And we are forced to enter this cave which is like a prison, in which darkness covers us, so that we are separated from each other; and you can not see me, neither can I see you.' When Adam had said these words, they cried and spread their hands before God; for they were full of sorrow.
And they prayed to God to bring the sun to them, to shine on them, so that darkness would not return to them, and that they wouldn't have to go under this covering of rock.
He then cried and beat his chest, then he fell on the ground on his face and made his request, saying: 'O Lord, plague me not, neither consume me, nor yet take away my life from the earth.' For he thought the sun was God."
The statement that "God created man in his own image" is correct from either the physical or spiritual point of view.
Thus the material self is also in the image of the material "gods."
Aymaran myth (South America, Bolivia/Peru): Humans, made from clay by the creator god Pachacamac, emerge as various tribes from different openings in the Earth after a flood destroys a previous race.
Hungarian myth (European, Hungary): Eye seeds and Magya seeds lie below a primeval sea; a sun god as a golden duck retrieves them, awakening animals and the Magyars as they emerge to the surface.
See the list of mountains that are linked to different Gods.
Words like Elohim, El Shaddai and Yahweh are turned into God, so readers miss how the beings act in the stories.
He says the New Testament never uses the name Yahweh for God, and that Jesus kept his distance from that figure.
He says Yahweh's acts, such as the 70,000 deaths after David's army count, do not match the God Jesus taught about.
He points out that Jesus and the New Testament writers never call God Yahweh.
neither Jesus nor anyone who writes for him ever uses the word Yahweh as a word for God.
Does that sound anything like the character of God as Jesus portrays God?
So how is it that for the best part of 2000 years, Christianity has run with the idea that the Yahweh character in the Hebrew scriptures is a portrayal of God, and that that is the God that Jesus worshiped?
Saul said, "They have been brought from Amalek, the people having spared the best of the sheep and cattle to sacrifice them to Yahweh your God; the rest we have consigned to the curse of destruction."
And from the booty, the people have taken the best sheep and cattle and what was under the curse of destruction only to sacrifice them to Yahweh your God in Gilgal."
Now let's be honest: does that sound anything like the character of God as Jesus describes God in the Gospels?
That is nothing like the qualities of God revealed by Jesus and those who wrote for him in the New Testament.
When those writers describe the character of God, they speak about a god of love and forgiveness—love which is patient and kind, never jealous, not boastful or conceited, is never rude, never seeks its own advantage, doesn't take offense or store up grievances.
And how is it that Christianity, for the best part of 2000 years, has run with the idea that the Yahweh character of the Hebrew scriptures is a portrayal of God, and that that is the God that Jesus worshiped?
What I argue in The Eden Conspiracy is that although Yahweh later became used as the holy name for God, originally Yahweh referenced an entity which colonized our Hebrew ancestors and governed over them with brutality.
And that Yahweh was not a portrayal of God and was certainly not the God whom Jesus called Father.
El Shaddai does not mean that, and they suggest it could mean either "God of the mountains" or "God of the plains."
If Yahweh's character is so abominable, why is it that for so long Christians have identified their concept of God—a transcendent, loving God—with the character of Yahweh in the Hebrew scriptures?
By the time Jesus came on the scene, Yahweh was being used as the holy name for God; it was the name for the Jewish God.
When he criticizes their theology, they reply: "We are not illegitimate children; the only father we have is God."
Jesus answered: "If God were your father, you would love me, since I have my origin in God and have come from him.
Now, "father" was the language that Jesus used to address God.
Now, the Gospels and New Testament are written in Greek, and so the word "God" is "Theos," and the concept was fairly established that this referred to the God and source of the cosmos and everything in it—that in which we all live and move and have our being, of which we are all offspring.
And Jesus in Matthew 7 and Luke 11 says: "What kind of father would treat his children like that?" He makes a mockery of the Yahweh stories as if they were depictions of the God whom he called Father.
There's the king and his God Yahweh; all the others will be forgotten.
And so we now have an ordered theocracy with one God, one king, one high priest, one temple in Jerusalem—all the tithes coming there, and only the one high priest telling us what's what, what's true, what's false, what's news, what's fake news.
And what they are saying is: we should be sure that Christians moving forward don't worship anything that is less than God.
Don't eat meat sacrificed to idols; our worship is of God, the source of the cosmos and everything in it—that in which we all live and move and have our being, of which we are all offspring.
That's how the Apostle Paul defines God in Acts 17.
And towards the end of John's Gospel, he makes clear to his Jewish followers that his God and Father was something unknown to them.
But Jesus is now saying: my God and Father—what I'm talking about—is something new to you.
So by the time we have the reconstruction of the temple and Ezra the senior priest overseeing that, we now have a set of scriptures teaching Yahwism: there's only one God, and his name is Yahweh.
The problem with gluing them together is that it sends the signal that this God whom we call Yahweh is the same God whom Jesus worshiped and taught about.
Though Yahweh came to be used as the holy name for God, originally it referred to this colonizing entity—this experience of colonization and brutalization by other non-human powers.
And the problem is, if you confuse those things—if you confuse God with a dragon, if you confuse God with a colonizer, if you confuse God with a violent, genocidal, jealous ET entity that has no empathy towards its humans—you end up with a very distorted vision not only of God but of yourself.
If you worship a God who divides the human race into "my people" and "not my people," you will have to think in that same racist kind of way.
And indeed we have through the ages: we've justified invasions, colonizations, enslavements, misogyny, all kinds of violence and injustice in the name of a violent God.
And my books—The Eden Conspiracy, Escaping from Eden, The Scars of Eden, Echoes of Eden—argue that the time is more than due for us to unravel this connection: to be sure that when we use the word "God," we're speaking only of the source of the cosmos and everything in it—that in which we all live and move and have our being, of which we are all offspring—which is a beautiful, inclusive vision in the words of the Apostle Paul in Acts 17.
And that we do not consider the Yahweh figure of the Hebrew stories as God.
We have Yahweh, El Shaddai, Elyon, all the Elohim, the elohim adah—they are stories of paleo-contact, not of "Almighty God," which turns out to be an invented translation altogether.
Yahweh was all about: "You worship me and nobody else because I'm a jealous God." And Jesus said: "I didn't come to be served; I came to help you."
In the first chapter of the Bible, the name for God is Elohim (number 430), which is plural and means "divine ones." The Elohim, or divine ones, are more than one.
In Genesis 1:1 of the King James Bible, it states: "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." However, the original Phoenician language says: "In the beginning of the creation, Elohim created the heavens and the earth."
Elohim is not "God." "El" means deity in Phoenician-Canaanite, and "im" indicates plurality, like adding "s" in English.
Thus, it means "the gods created the heavens and the earth."
This explains Genesis 1:26-28, where it says: "God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness." Who is "us" and "our"?
Later, in Genesis 3:22, it states: "Man has become as one of us, knowing good and evil." Again, "us" refers to Elohim, the gods.
The gods created the heavens, the earth, and all on it.
In Genesis 9:1, after the flood, God tells Noah and his sons: "Multiply and replenish the earth." "Replenish" implies doing it again, suggesting a prior civilization destroyed by the flood.
Similarly, in Genesis 1:28, God tells Adam and Eve: "Multiply and replenish the earth," implying recreation after desolation.
Abke says Jesus never taught that God needs blood to forgive sins, and points to his words on love, mercy and the commandments.
Jesus never taught about God needing blood to forgive people.
Those things are far far secondary to his actual teachings and pointings to God.
But according to the information I have discovered, we cannot return and reunite with God until we have completed all of our lessons and gained all the knowledge we are capable of.
Then, it is our destiny to return and share all we have learned with God.
In this sense, we are literally cells in the body of God.
An acceptance of reincarnation took away the power of the heaven or hell mob to frighten people into doing as they, sorry, ‘God’, said.
As soon as you accept the probability of a populated universe, your image of God has to expand.
Going to the sources reveals that this is not originally a story of God and the devil.
This is part of a massive airbrushing done through the centuries, with the most significant one perhaps in the 6th century BCE, where the great library of texts that form the Hebrew scriptures was reworked to turn it into a single book that gave the impression of being about monotheism with a single story of God Almighty from beginning to end.
None of that makes sense when you think you’re reading a story of Almighty God from beginning to end.
It all makes sense when you peel off that final layer of editing from the 6th century BCE, go to the root meanings of the names used for God, and it becomes clear that you’ve got a panoply of advanced beings on the planet’s surface, each dominating their own human colonies and bumping up against each other in competition for resources and hegemony.
You go to the later prophets, and you see that name Yahweh—they’re talking about God in the way the Apostle Paul meant.
Now Moses was shepherding the flock of Jethro, his father-in-law, the priest of Midian, and he took them beyond the desert to the sacred mountain of God, called Horeb.
Before Menes, the first king, it lists gods and spirits.
Graham Hancock adds the two to 36,620 years in Fingerprints of the Gods.
According to Eusebius, Manetho gave 13,900 years to the rule of the gods.
Gods, demigods and spirits of the dead together came to 24,925 years.
In Gods of the Bible he argues that Elohim should not be read as "God".
Read that way, Genesis records long-lived rulers, not a myth about a single God.
Lambert (1967), Enmeduranki of Sippar receives the secrets of heaven and earth from Shamash, the sun god.
He lives 365 years, one for each day of the solar year, and is taken up by God.

Biglino, Gods of the Bible: https://www.maurobiglino.com/en/gods-of-the-bible-mauro-biglino/
On a hill that rose above Murias, the Atlanteans and the Pleiadeans worked together to build an exquisite healing temple dedicated to the god Min and the Bennu bird, both representative of rejuvenation.
“Dear children:”If we turn away from our own Reason and give ourselves into God’s will, then He can work in us and make us what He desires.
As Christ says: “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.”
But God provides these for His children, as a father provides for his family.
Yet God’s grace is eternal, and if we abide in Him, we are clothed in His righteousness forever.
The devil tries to sow doubt and fear, whispering that God will not provide.
They seek God first.
They use their work, gifts, and callings in service, but trust God to bless it.
But trust in God brings quietness, blessing, and sufficiency.
17 – Of God’s Blessing in this World
For God took it from the earth (Adam = red earth), mixed with the fire’s centre and the water’s centre; both fire and water-breaths are united in the breath of man, inspired by the Spirit of the eternal world, which introduced the second principle (Spirit) into the heart.
And this was the reason God forbade Adam to eat from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil:
But the blessing of God is also in this labour.For the soul catches heavenly breath in the inward, but the outward body eats bread of the earth.
All trades, business, and conditions are God’s ordinance, and stand in the hand of God.
In the soul: in God’s works of wonder.
God holds no displeasure at human labour in itself, but looks at the spirit in which it is done.
The dominion of God’s Spirit moving upon the waters (Genesis 1:2).
But if he sets his work in God, the Spirit of God flows through him and blesses his hands.
For the Spirit of God works through the outward life also, and man’s calling (Beruf) is an ordinance of God.
He says: “I have my God in my chest; I will hoard and leave my children great treasure.”But Christ warns: “Lay not up treasures on earth, where moth and rust consume.”
He who thinks riches are his god will perish with them.
Scripture says: “For the dainty of the rich help not; but he that gives bread to the hungry, it is as if he gave it to God.”
Heaven and earth are mine.” But he does not know that all prosperity belongs to God, and that true blessing comes only with humility and love.
They heap up goods as if serving God, but it is idolatry.
True blessing is to seek God’s kingdom first.
Man can live both with God and in this world together.
When he gives himself into God’s will, he enters through a narrow, strait gate, through which the soul must pass.
So the soul that dies into God’s will has already undergone death in spirit, and though outward judgment is not yet executed, the soul is secure.
If the Spirit of God is present, then man beholds wonders of God, especially when his time is complete and he must pass over.
His beginning is in God, and his end is God.This heavenly image lives in God’s will, manifest in obedience, doing God’s works, shining forth in wonders.
inward (God’s eternal hidden mystery in the fire),
middle (the created soul-image, likeness of God in wonders),
Man is made to reflect God’s image; in creation he was given a glass or mirror of the Spirit, by which he might behold divine majesty.
God gave man this image of Himself.
The eternal part of man is not generated from outward life, but from God.
If the will (in this life, in the body) goes out of falsehood and wickedness, and yields itself to God’s purpose, it receives a figure of eternity.
If the soul works in the will of God in the centre, it gains strength from the Spirit.
If it sought God, it becomes divine.
Thus even evil substance, when renewed in God, is turned to good.
Its will becomes eternally fixed, unless turned back to God in this life.
It is cast into the angel of God’s severity (the strict Judge), where it bears its deeds.
But the souls that at the end narrowly escape the devil, and yield into the will of God, when the body dies, are like naked souls, having little of heavenly substance.
But the zealous souls that lived under the Cross, working God’s wonders in obedience, walk in God’s power after death.
Their joy is to serve God, glorify Him, and to love one another in eternity.
“The Kingdom of God consists in power, not in earthly substance.”
The Spirit of God must enlighten you into the heavenly being; otherwise, all is lost.
Hypocrites are called God’s hammers:
They cannot awaken the heart into God’s Spirit.
She must drink the cup of God’s wrath:
He who truly works in God, works the wonders of God, and lives simply in God’s will.
To follow God’s Spirit, which is life.
He who is called to be a Ruler, Shepherd, or Pastor, must care for God’s flock.
Such pastors are wolves in sheep’s clothing, serving their belly more than God.
A faithful shepherd, however, stands under the Cross, walking in obedience to God.
He does not speak empty words, but the Spirit of God works through him to touch hearts.
Without the Spirit of God, there is only false teaching and empty hammering.
Even if an ass could speak the wonders of God, it would still not have the Spirit.
The awakened soul is drawn by God’s Spirit, which strikes in the heart like a hammer.
Without the Spirit of God, man has no true dominion.
The Spirit of God alone rules inwardly.
The devil has no kingdom of his own — he only twists God’s power into wrath.
If he brings forth fruit from the Spirit of God, it belongs to eternity.
“For whatsoever grows out of the power of the Light belongs to God’s kingdom; whatsoever grows out of darkness belongs to wrath and death.”
If the soul sowed God’s Spirit, it will reap eternal life.
For the evil branch will be cast into the fire; the good branch will be gathered into God’s barn.
“We have here faithfully opened what God has given, according to our gifts.” Those who hunger may be filled; those who thirst may drink.
Our joy in God may be full — and we may eat together in the world to come.
The prayer which the Lord taught us is an instruction and teaching of all that we should do and leave undone, and what we should ask and expect from God.
It is a springing well, proceeding from the words of God.
For un- is God’s Eternal Will to Nature;-ser means “to be” or “is,” comprehended in the first four forms of Nature, in which the First Principle consists.
Unser = God’s eternal will (un) entering into Nature (ser).
When we say Dein, we understand how the poor soul, which has fallen away from God’s will, now catches itself again into that Will (its Principle of Godhead).
The syllable Dein = the soul giving itself into the voice of God.
Thus, to say Dein Name = the soul inclines back into God’s heavenly substance, sanctified in the Will of God.
And when we say geheiliget, then the soul goes into the heavenly substantiality as a quiet child without anger, into the blessed will turning once more into God.
With the syllable li, the soul moves into light, going forth with the Holy Ghost for the brightness of God’s majesty.
When we say Dein, the poor soul gives itself up again into the Will of God, as God’s child.
Reich = the soul gives itself into the virtue and power of God’s kingdom, desiring not to come out of the deep, but to rest in the power of God.
Wille = the soul gives itself again into the Will of God.
Thus, the Will of God flows up in the heart.
Sche = it works the work of God: for here it both, what the counsel of the Father is, what the heart of God wills, as the soul of Christ suffered it (to be hung upon the Cross), and it bows under the Cross as a child, in meekness.
Im = the Heart of God, out of which shines the Word.Himmel = the angelic order, which does the will of God with joy.
So the soul desires to act in God’s will like the angels.
Thus, the petition is that God’s will not remain hidden but be fulfilled visibly in creation.
The soul desires to be fed with the Word of God.
Und — this syllable is that in which the will of the soul awakens in the meek fire of God.
With und the word goes forth in meekness; it starts in the heart, lifts up as budding mercy, and brings reconciliation into the will of God.
It joins the will into the meek fire of God.
Vergib — here the soul inclines itself down into meekness, as if it said: “I will give myself into Your fire, O Lord; forgive me, for I stand before You in humility.”The syllable ver lays itself down in surrender; gib signifies the gift of mercy which God bestows.
Thus: forgive us = the will of the soul is washed in the laver of God’s mercy, where the sinner must be washed, or else remain in condemnation.
Unser Schuld — here the soul yields itself into the love of God, and is washed as an evil child.
Thus the syllable schuld expresses the lament and confession of debt, which must be washed away in God’s mercy.
Wir = the will of the soul again presses into the love of God, to forgive as it is forgiven.
The syllable wir catches the evil, laying it down in the love of God.
Unsern Schuldigern — this is the soul’s washing, its reconciliation, laying down debts in God’s love.
Und — once more an injection into the loving meekness of God, where the will of the soul in the Majesty humbles itself before the Trinity.
Instead, it seeks to go with the Spirit through trial into God, where the will is not overcome but proven.
The author recalls Christ’s temptation: “The devil has desired to sift you like wheat, but I have prayed for you, that your faith fail not.”So this petition is the soul asking that it not fall into the devil’s sifting power, but remain in the will of God.
Uns — this syllable once again unites the soul into fellowship, against the majesty of anger, and presses into the Spirit of God.
The petition is to be spared this, to be kept in the Spirit of God, who can turn wrath into love.
Derne — this is the sprouting forth of the centre, the wonders of God opening, overcoming wrath and drawing the will into the kingdom of God.
Erlöse — here the will of the soul is delivered from wrath, lifted into God’s majesty, and preserved in the kingdom.
This petition is the prayer that the soul be delivered from the wrath-nature, and that the Spirit of God carry it into the eternal kingdom.
Without Nature, the soul would have no form, for the Spirit of God manifests itself in it.
This spirit (of the world) holds the soul in lust, beneath the tyranny of wrath.But in Christ, the poor soul is lifted again, with the Spirit of God within it, transformed into an angelic will.
The soul that enters God’s will is like a sprout from the root, rising into the light.
If the fierce principle (wrath-nature) were awakened again, it would be fire, and the four forms of Nature would rise again.Therefore, God became man in Christ, so that the love-spirit might have a body and overcome wrath in himself.
Zeus, seeing Atlantis’ decline, assembled the gods to punish it, though the narrative cuts off before the punishment is detailed.
Then God made the islands of Atlantis sink into the ocean.
In approximately 10,000 BC, Poseidon, High Priest of Atlantis and God of the Seas, declared that Atlantis must be flooded, an event recorded in the Bible and other literature of the world.
The High Priests and Priestesses, who later became mythical Gods in Egypt and Greece, led those members of their tribes who were pure and willing, to various parts of the world that had been specially prepared for them.
Ptah is identified as the god of craftsmanship and technology, possibly involved in modifying human DNA to facilitate ascension.
The Essenes also developed the concept of the seven-rayed god, linked with Chnubis, a lion-serpent deity.
It contained sacred items and represented the presence and power of God.
There is a clue in the OAHSPE Bible, a channeled book from 1880, about the destiction of the sons of Cain and the sons of God.
And the sons of Cain were called tribes, even unto this day, but the sons of the righteous were sons of God; wherefore it was said of old: Behold the sons of earth and the sons of heaven.
The term sons of (God) from the Hebrew “Ishim” is another designation for a class of celestial beings or angels within certain Jewish mystical traditions, including Kabbalah.
He asserts that time, as humans understand it, was never created by God.
This idea of separating things into god and notgod and antigod is out of harmony.
“Thou shalt have no other God before me”, and “Love thy neighbor as thyself.” In this is builded the whole law and gospel of every age that has said, “There is one God!”
Mount Sabu (God Ninurta)
In the hierarchy or family of the body of the One God, the animals, who share our planet, are the younger members.
That are part of what you would call “God” or Goddess, or where our light begins from.
"In the beginning was The Lords of the Word, and The Lords of the Word were with God, and The Lords of the Word were God."
The same was in the beginning with God.
There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
Verses 17-18 shift slightly to introduce Moses and the law, then pivot to Jesus as the bringer of grace and truth, and finally to the idea of the "only begotten Son" revealing God.
Oahspe presents a history of "false gods" (angelic or spiritual entities who set themselves up as deities and influenced earthly religions).
This occurs in sections like the Book of Wars Against Jehovih (Chapter XLVII), where Osiris consults with other false gods such as Baal, Ashtaroth, and Egupt to establish these idols.
Later references appear in God's Book of Ben (Chapter VII), where it states that "Osiris and Isis shall go down" alongside other false deities like Anubi, Baal, Ashtaroth, and Thammus, indicating their eventual decline in influence.
Post-destruction, she helps rebuild society by teaching love, harmony, oneness, ecology, herbal healing, frequency raising, respect for life, and connection to a kind creator (“God”).

The main representatives of gods in Atlantean times were Osiris, Isis, and Horus.
Shu, Tefnut, and Geb represent the creation between heaven and Earth; these gods were not people but concepts of nature.
Osiris was the incarnation of every god through fertility, so he went through all creation, representing the idea of god bred in every part of reality.
The god spread around the universe in different parts, called god, was put in the womb of the Holy Mother to create the sun representing darkness, light, and wisdom.
When Aesir and other galactic beings came from those constellations, they were attached to 12 gods and goddesses related to their information.
This gave 12 concepts of the divine in different dimensions, 12 people from the stars, represented on Earth as aliens called gods and goddesses.
Then, 12 human families were called priests, priestesses, or gods and goddesses in human shape.
They were related to gods and goddesses on Earth because their blood held patterns, stories, and histories of families from stars and portals in constellations.
Concepts of gods and goddesses today are mistaken by history, as they were taken by beings, aliens, and priests to explain different times, levels, temples, and schools.
When thinking about Egyptian gods and goddesses, the first with Sumerians to organize the pantheon, what is known is the divine represented through people from stars and alive in ancient times.
The divine cannot be understood through people and gods in history.
There were not many gods in history; there were many humans and Aesir (Annunaki) representing universal divine concepts, explaining or representing them for humans to understand and be ruled by.

Once you get the transformation of that, you become enlightened because you understand that you are God—you are transforming your own reality.
7th Dimension: Enlightenment; realization of being God, transforming one's reality; associated with archangels as universal resounding vibrations.
Darkness and light have come from the same creator, Prime Creator, who has created a host of creator gods to go out and do its bidding.
It has given all these creator gods freedom to form worlds: to discover how to create life, how to become responsible stewards of life, and how to become parents for the planets in the galactic systems that they have created.
The creator gods have taken themselves and made themselves and fed their worlds from themselves.
In Egypt, there is a story about a creator god who masturbated and created the world.
The god took himself and made small identities out of himself so that he could be in what he made and not outside of it.
Or some god returning, or some savior, or some reason for everyone to begin to follow one way of thinking.
For example, in the book of Genesis, there is a mention of the "sons of God" who intermingle with the daughters of men, and some interpretations identify these "sons of God" with the Ishim.
The phrase "sons of God" appears in several Bible verses, primarily in the King James Version (KJV) or similar translations.
Some modern translations may use "children of God" for gender neutrality in New Testament passages, but the exact phrase matches the query.
