The Logos and some Facts for Scientologists explaining How to Know God


Saint John for his witness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ explains to us who the Son of God is. Being
full of darkness we, men and women do not know who we are or who God is. But, He, God, Eternal Life
and Light of humankind, who is with god at the beginning and part of his forevermore. As the part of the
mind of God, God’s only Son Jesus Christ, knows both Who He Is and Who We Are. Inasmuch as we
remain in Him and His Words remain in us, then we too know Who we are and Who God is.






A reading from the book of John:

He who has the Son has life, and that life is the light of men.

“I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never
be thirsty..But, as I told you, you have seen me and still you do not believe. All that the Father gives me
will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away. For I have come down from heaven
not to do my will but to do the will of Him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all that he has given me,
but raise them up on the last day.” This is the Word of the Lord


Fact 1
Topic A Universal Redemption, Unlimited Atonement, For whom He has predestined He has save, and
whom he has save, He has predestined.

God cannot change the broad outlines of what has already happened in the past, but our lives not
completely being determined by these broad outlines, He can go back in time in order to set things
right. God deals in truth, thus he cannot change what He hs already willed in the past. But, His Spirit,
and He Himself can go back in time in order in order to change what has not already happened in the
future. And, since there is always an infinite amount He can change in the past, though our souls be
Eternally damned in hell, he has the capacity to save us and bring us to heaven for all Eternity, for so I
believe.

Reference God's Name I AM WHO I AM

Implication Thus it is possible to appear to ourself and the world to be Eternally dammned and a
reprobate, but, the moment of our conversion to be suddenly predestined for salvation. And, this is not
a change in facts in the past, but, the viewpoint from which we consider them and look forward from
them.

Topic B God is sovereign or the Lord is the Lord

Because god created everything, gives it continued existence, and weaves the thread of his goodness
through all and in all, he has sovereignty over all things.

Implication
When we see and understand God and his purpose in everything and every being, then we too have to
participate in the authority He has. So, we should acknowledge God as our first priority and seek first
the Kingdom of Heaven and its righteousness.

Article #316
Subject: The Logos of Fact B God is a person
Author: Andrew W. Harrell

Topic B God is a person He is omnipresent, omniscient, and omnipotent


Reference The Four Gospels

Fact
By a person we mean someone alive who has individuality and a mind and an intellect (I include angels
in this category). Now for the same reason humans are more than just things because they have a mind
and an intellect so, Go whose existence must encompass conscious and intellectual beings must be
conscious and more than just a thing.
Indeed, since God is One being who is necessary and independent he must exist in all things which
have the character of independence. And because He exists in all beings who have an independent will,
so H must have a will.. added 2017... and He must, being conscious of all our wills and able to incarnate
Himself, it also must be possible to exist in all our wills...if we let Him or Her.

Implication
Since God dwells in us all, and also in all things as we said earlier. He is Omnipresent. Since He is in all
our minds and intellects, He is Omniscient. And, sinceHe is in all our wills, He is Omnipotent.

note:
As humans, we can participate with God in the creation and completion of His or Her Universe (in fact,
He...She needs us to). But, we can only do this if we have faith in His or Her capabilities. The World
need God to be more than just Spirit, or a book such as the Torah or the Bible, or the Church. It needs
Him or Her to be a real living, individual Person. The Church does not have individuality by Itself. And,
the Torah or the Bible, although They have Individuality and a Mind and Intellect are not human persons
capable of Love, Mercy, and Compassion as God is.

Article #317
Subject: The Logos and Fact C, The Word of God inside of the Son of Man
Author: Andrew W. Harrell

Topic C1 The Word of God (the Son of God) exists inside of the Son of Man

Reference The Four Gospels

Since we have noted above that God has individuality and a mind and an intellect and is
omnipotence's,omnipresent, and omniscient (not necessarily in this order), then He must be capable of
expressing this mind and this intellect through speech. In whom or what else among his creations
should this expression take place than in man and woman whom He made in His image?
And, since God by His very nature exists in us all., why should the effect of this expression be limited to
only some of man and womankind, when He is Lord of all creation?

Implication
Christ, the Son of God, is Eternally present inside of all of mankind and womankind, One being, One
God, One Lord for all places and times.

Article #318
Subject: The Logos and Fact C2 Christ and God in the Beginning
Author: Andrew W. Harrell
Posted: 6/16/2017 02:24:43 PM

Topic C2 Christ (The Mind of God as Word) was with God in the beginning and all things were created
with Him or Her and through Him or Her, and without Him or Her nothing was created

Reference The Four Gospels

It is through Christ, the expression of God in humankind, that all things related to humans were created,
(including the whole universe) and are sustained and added to. Moreover, this same Word of god is our
(us humans and angels) connection with humankind on the one hand and God on the other.

Implication Thus if we abandon part of humankind we abandon part of Christ, our connection with God.
So, too, we abandon part of our souls and our bodies which were with god in the beginning and with
respect to which He or She created us to have Eternal Life.
