So often, humans make the mistake of the erroneous philosophical position that if [[God]] is perfect, and he is, that his creation must be perfect. In this way, all human suffering is attributed to God's will and great masses of [[humanity]] have resigned themselves to living without hope that their lives could be better because all that is is the will of the perfect Father so that where there is suffering, injustice, and poverty, these things are wished and willed by God.

There are, in reality, vast [[dimensions|levels]] of [[being]], of [[reality]], between imperfect humanity and perfect spirit and that which intervenes is [[time]] and [[space]]. All that is imperfect, all that is growing and evolving toward perfection contributes to the God-Being who exists in these intervening levels. This God is the trinity in time and space. God, the Universal Father, God the Eternal Son, and God the Infinite Spirit exist before or outside of time and space. They created time and space and that part of them which is involved in that [[creation]] lives as the '''Supreme Being''' in time and space.

The Supreme Being is like that threshing floor that Jesus spoke of, taking the good from all the husks of unreality and making that good real, absorbing that good into himself.As you live your lives, you are working with God in bringing out the [[goodness|good]], the [[truth|true]], and the [[beauty|beautiful]] and leaving behind that which does not contribute to these things. The supreme being will continue in this joint work with each living being until every last piece of the beautiful, the true, and the good is brought forth. This is a level of God that is evolving and he evolves as you evolve. He grows as you grow. The more real, the more perfect you become, the more perfect and real does the supreme become.

He is the personification of how much we are all dependent upon each other. What you do, how you live in this life, effects the lives of all others, not only on this world, but upon every world, not only on this level of [[existence]], but every level of existence. No one is alone, no one is unconnected to the whole. Remember, as you grow in the spirit, as you augment that which is holy in your lives, you are raising the level of all.

Q: [[Personal]] and self-conscious being at this time or does that come later in the [[evolution]] of the supreme being?
