Personal and Social Responsibilities to God

Since we are beginning to know God through science as well as scriptures, our role and responsibilities to God are becoming clearer. For instance, when we knew God only through scriptures, many people were taught to fear God and have faith. The objective of these students was to live morally so that God would judge them properly and reward them with an eternal life in Paradise. Based on this teaching, planet earth was viewed as a school for souls. This school taught the way to earn an eternal life in Paradise.

Today, this old teaching is changing because modern science shows that a monotheistic God and the creation were always together and will always be together. This togetherness forms a single world in which God and the creation exist forever. Thus, eternal life is no longer earned by humans because eternal life is an attribute of all humans. This attribute is known as reincarnation. Jesus Christ teaches reincarnation at John 3.3, ... Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. He is saying that the kingdom of God can be seen by our minds if we are reincarnated endlessly.

At John 14:12, Jesus Christ tells says, ... we will do the work He did and do greater work than He did. With these words, Jesus is saying that our knowledge grows endlessly. Science is the path to truth. It is the only path to knowledge. Since all knowledge is hidden initially, Jesus is really telling us that we have personal and social responsibilities to God because only the human specie is able to build knowledge about the kingdom of God. Personal and social responsibilities to God deal only with the production of knowledge of God’s kingdom. Accordingly, atheists, suicide bombers, criminals, the makers of ghettos, drug users, hoarders, landowners, warmongers, terrorists, etc. are thus irresponsible to God. Furthe, the limited resources mentioned by some people are currently hidden from our minds. Only new knowledge will find new resources.
