If you do not understand racism (white supremacy) and how it works, everything else you understand will only confuse you. - Neely Fuller

We need something to clarify everything for us, because we get confused...but if we use the concept of Asili, we will understand that whatever it is they are doing, whatever terms they use, however they come at you, you need to be thinking about what? How is this going to facilitate their power and help them to dominate me? -Marimba Ani

Weak Faith & Strong Faith
Unity Consciousness #266

.

Weak Faith

“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” (Hebrews 11:1 KJV)

Strong Faith

Faith is the substance of things worked for.

Persistence, then patience, which includes understanding and process, are the evidences of things not seen, seen and also of what is to come and what is to go away.

Persistence, then patience is strong faith.

Faith & Me

When I say, “I have faith,” I am supposed to mean, “I have understanding, process, persistence, then patience.”

I am not supposed to be saying, “I have a feeling and/or a belief.”

A Belief Is A Hypothesis

A belief is okay to start out with, but a belief is not where I'm supposed to end up. A belief is just like a hypothesis. It is a hypothesis. I am supposed to take that belief hypothesis and through persistence, then patience, move through levels of understanding into knowledge.

In other words, move from the liquid, milk of understanding that is easily digestible and then to more solid, meatier forms of understanding. In this manner I use the teeth of my thought processes to chew and critically think rather than just suck from a bottle of belief that is handed to me or that somehow ends up in my cradle.

The Strongest Faith

The universe is filled with the faithfulness of the Creator. All the processes of ecosystems are proof enough. These processes can be relied upon. They are evidences of the faithfulness of the Creator.

The Creator is persistent, then patient. The processes of the Creator are at work. The substance of these processes show themselves through many changes and transformations, some more obvious than others. As a result, the Creator is gaining understanding of self because the Creator is gaining understanding of what is happening in the Universe. Thus, the persistence portion of the process is improving. In other words, the Creator is getting better at making things happen.

The higher spiritual nature of the Creator is problem-solving for everything created. This is happening through the use of process. This can be simply expressed through the metaphor of chess.

The Black Queen is methodically working out a series of moves to put the White King into checkmate. The White King has fewer moves and weaker faith. The White King seems to have more weapons, however, since the White King is only a copycat and only uses destructive processes and cannot create life, the White King is running out of resources/tools/weapons on every level and of all types. The King is limited to Earth and limited understanding of Earth.

On the other hand, the Queen is bringing forth resources from the Black Hole. Out of this creative womb, She is birthing original things into existence. She is also giving rebirth to that which once existed. This is why our main responsibility is to attend to our dormant greatness. We must use strong faith to help reawaken our greatness so the Queen can more efficiently use us to put a quicker end to the King's reign.
