Sophia is a name given to a female entity of divinity that is not accepted by modern Christianity. She is accepted by those who believe in her as the GODDESS: being the divine counterpart of GOD in the creation of the universe. This belief in Sophia is not a defiance of the church, nor a replacement for the teachings of GOD, or his son, Jesus Christ. She is an additional Holy entity, that should at least be recognized as once being part of the hierarchy of heaven, if not still. Those who have a belief in Sophia are those who feel that something is missing from scripture as it is now. We also believe that there may actually be false teachings thriving in the dogma of the church, or at least false in that they are only half-true. The doctrine of Sophia is founded upon the knowledge of the truth. GOD has warned us away from many things which will impair our quest to be with him. There is no warning to us to stay away from the pursuit of knowledge and wisdom, even if it is about him, his place, or his works. I believe he even wants us to pursue such things, for they only glorify him more. Knowing what he has kept secret does not in any way make him any less than the fantastic GOD that he is. The knowledge of Sophia, and what she represents is, therefore, very important to the development of the Christian soul in preparation to find home.
There is much talk these days of the GODDESS. Most is in the circles of pagan Earth religions; Druidism, Gaian Philosophy, Nature worship, and Wiccan groups. The GODDESS has made her presence known in the minds and souls of mortals. The Identity of the Mother, Mater, Matter, Maternal, Material Deity is known, yet her true meaning is yet obscured. She is worshipped as He is worshipped, yet the pagans claim their beliefs do not constitute any religion at all. Nor do they hold any animosity for any other religious systems as the so-called Christians do, but they most certainly do. The Modern Pagan has bound themself to the idea that the Ancient Religion is far closer to the truth than anything recorded as part of Judeo-Christian theology. Their minds are so bound as to refuse that the Gods and Goddesses which they worship have anything at all to do with the GOD and GODDESS of the church.
The Church has found itself in a quandary as well, with many members feeling drawn to this GODDESS within their souls. They have gone to great lengths to keep Her Holy, (by their standards,) and within the jurisdiction of the church. They call the GODDESS none other than the Virgin Mary. In 1950 the Catholic Church declared that She was the Intercessor between mankind and Jesus Christ. Just recently they gave Her status as the Fourth member of the Holy Family. What was once a Trinity became a Quadrature. All four points of the Cross are now covered. This has all been in an effort to keep the church alive by embracing current thought about the Divine. The Catholic Church has been known for this from the very beginning. Those who call themselves "Protestants" must realise that all of their Holy Days are timed precisely with very ancient pagan festivals. This was by design, not by chance. Ritual, Dogma, and the worship of Saints were all a part of a greater effort to draw pagans into the Catholic religion during the formative times of that great church. So it remains today.
The truth, as I see it, is that the GODDESS has not yet been fully realised in our psyche. She waits still, as so very few actually understand her true place in the greater scope of things real and unreal. That She does indeed exist is without question in my own mind. Who and What she really is, is the subject of all possible debate. This work is an effort to dispel at least some of the mystery. I too, have felt her presence within my soul. I need to know who she is, what she is, and what bearing she has upon my further progress in reality. And I have come to know that she also appears in many forms, as the Lord Jesus Christ does. As the lines between Father and Son, Angel and Mortal are so obscured in the reasoning of Jesus and GOD, so are these same lines without any real definition. She is here. She is there for us all. She just needs to be recognised and appreciated for who She is. And this is easy! We need only to talk to her and find out; and to compare these thing she may say to what we already know and believe from the word of GOD.
Sophia is real. She is very much
the Virgin Mary, and the Mother of Jesus Christ. She is the True Mother
of GOD, and the very Wife of the Lord YAHWEH and Jehovah. It was from out
of Her womb that all things hath proceedeth. She was indeed the One of
the Material of which was spoken in pre-ancient times. It was she from
which all reality hath become real. We need only to figure the mess out
from what has been left to us. She is the One true GODDESS as there is
but one true GOD. There is no other answer for Her at all. Our One True
Holy Father knew of Her in that time. How is it that She should remain
a mystery to us, but for the will of the obscene Church? They never wanted
us to know anything of the GODDESS. This was to be a religion of pure Masculine
power. Male domination and subjugation of the Female in every way conceivable.
So it is written. So it is written in error.
