Sees…. “the Universe as the progressive and developing self expression of God – The supreme Mind or Self – and God as being changed by the inclusion of created things in the divine being, either now or in the future.
God and the material Universe thus form a unity, though one in which the mental or spiritual aspect has ontological and causal priority. Such an idealism is personal in so far as it holds that the supreme Self has the personal characteristics of knowing, feeling, and willing, even though this being may be much greater than anything we would ordinarily call a “person”.”
Rev. Dr. Prof. Keith Ward. (The Christian Idea of God)
A thought;
Maybe the Mandelbrot set may be a useful analogy – An unfolding jigsaw, where in our particular point in the human experience of time and space, we each form a piece of it.
As with all jigsaw puzzles that one is trying to put together, frustration persists until the correct place in the layout is found, and then pleasure when it is slotted into place.
One could see pleasure for both the searcher who is trying to put the picture piece together, and also for the jigsaw maker in that pleasure has been given.
