Last night, I had a book study on the 2nd principle of Unity Church. We also went over in greater depth principle 1: that the Universe is benevolent. I brought up a deep topic of justice. How do we navigate evil if there is no punishment for wrong?
The teacher was very negative about traditional Christianity and I was offended because I had been taught God is Love there too. But, as I began diving into a volunteer opportunity with NeedHim.org, I realized that traditional Christianity still believe man was inherently hostile towards God and that death was a curse.
I used to accept this, but I have been given a higher perspective now that really resonates with me and opens my eyes to many possibilities for what I see as my spiritual gifts and spiritual experiences.
Unfortunately, I get easily offended, as do the personality type of INFP! But, my teacher was nothing but loving and apologetic. That disarmed me. It is truly a higher way to see the Universe and God as all good all the time.
