If you look at history you will find similar more complete messages delivered in a hundred different languages from a hundred different cultures long before chistianity was thought of. How can you possibly believe that souls, the property of the universe, were held pending his arrival. You impart the vulgar lowest common denomintor of awareness of once great wisdom indivisable from nature. Past from each succeeding generation and practiced for all of human existence,compiled and enhanced for the benefit of all. What remains of that greatness is a vile misrepresentation of the truth, stripped of all meaning, reduced to destructive dogmatism by the worst psycopathic men humanity has ever produced. You have no faith in mankind, and none in the one (universe) or nature, you have abandoned both for your god. IMO;-)
Looking at History of humanities beliefs, one can see that there has always been a consciences to wards something spiritual but with no understanding as to who or what it was that they were all concerned with.
So, they made to themselves gods! Mankind has always had gods as evident by the many archaeological finds.
But, 2000+ years ago, the revelation of who this true God was, is, has been brought to light, where as before, darkness in the form of no knowledge was the condition.
All those souls who lived had no knowledge, were in darkness, if you will,therefore where held suspended until light came to visit them and were liberated.
That same light applies today, you see it, you accept it and become liberated as well.
But, have no concern, you need not accept it for your soul has already being accounted for. So that if you have no light now, you will when you die, for then will you truly see your creator in all His splendor.
The problem in this world is, that light has come in the midst of darkness, and mankind refuses to look at the light in order to free up their souls.
There are two forms of knowledge, the one you already acquired, that is, knowing the difference between good and evil, the second, is knowledge of the tree of life.
If you look at the story of Adam and Eve, you will see that that tree of life was held from them, only to be introduced at a later time.
Now, that knowledge is available to all who would consider it. It's there for the taking, it's free, and requires no conditions except for belief.
No belief, no knowledge and no freedom, which, will keep us bound to the natural, or as like you said, "You have no faith in mankind, and none in the one (universe) or nature, you have abandoned both for your god".
I have faith, and I see the light, and I see mankind loved by the creator, and I don't trust the flesh.
The flesh is of corruptible seed, where as the seed of God is not.
Mankind, corrupts and makes God of no effect for it trusts in the flesh, but those who trust in God, make the flesh of no effect.
I don't blame you for seeing the corruption and basing your rejection of God, but neither do I hold you accountable for not understanding the true God.
I would look at God for who He is, rather than what mankind thinks He is, for mankind has made shambles of His goodness and love.
