Three perspectives on why man is God’s master.
Perspective 1.
Has man forgotten his rightful place as God’s master?
A theology makes you a slave to your God while the Jesusthat Gnostic Christians follow has man take his rightful place as God’s master.After all, all the Gods are man-made. That is why Gnostic Christianity hasalways put man ahead of God. The Karaite Jews have that view as well as theiroral tradition can overrule the written Torah and God himself, showing how oldthis tradition or ideology is.
It seems that without the lie of a supernatural God, peopleare not willing to have a man be God the way the ancients used to do. Emperorsused to name themselves God and their sons, sons of God.
One of the Jesus' that the church did not silence, tells usthat that is the right way to think when he said, instead of stoning people onthe Sabbath, that the Sabbath was made for man and not man for the Sabbath. I extrapolatefrom that, that Jesus would also say that religions and gods were made for manand not man for religions. Jesus answered them, is it not written in your law,I said, Yee are gods?

Perspective 2.
Does the Bible show that our next God is a Man?
The Bible states that when Jesus returns, his elect willmake themselves known and elect him to rule over them. The Bible states thatour new Jesus will not be recognizable and he will be elected by his Words.Remember that the story tellers, in one of the sequels, have named Jesus. ---The Word.
The Abrahamic Karaite oral tradition is that Rabbis, mengenerally, can overrule the written Word of God. In real language, this meansthat the interpretation of words and terms is to always be governed by men of theDivine Council and their elected God.
The voice of a man, to the Bible, --- is supreme and aboveGod’s written words. That is as it should be as nature makes the ideal of allspecies to be one of their own. If a God cannot be or is not in our true image,then God is not worthy of us. This is the logic and reason why the rule of manover written tradition must be supreme. Anything else would be humankind givingup our natures for the nature of an alien form. God forbid.
More directly to the question. The Bible states that we areto kill witches. This, at that time, meant that men were not to let themselvesbe fooled by magicians or alchemists and other tricksters who might deceivethem. This meant that nothing magical or supernatural, no magician doingillusions, etc., should be put above the spoken word.
The policy of the Divine Council was to rule by the tenetcalled the Golden Rule. The Rabbi class thus had the final say in all religiousand political matters. The Divine Council would choose whom to anoint andfollow as their Prophet/God/King.
Does this ultimately show that God was a man to the Jews whowrote the Bible? Is that why they were so unafraid to change Gods name sooften?
Where Jews the first atheists? Closely followed by theGnostic that had used Jewry as a springboard to their better Universalistcreed? Is that why Rome hated Jews and Gnostic Christian?
If the Jews interpreted the word God as a man, the way theold Roman emperors did, then was placing a supernatural God up in heaven a poortheological position for us today.

Perspective 3.
Does as above so below mean that God must abide by man’slaws?
Jesus said to give to Caesar what is Caesars. Caesar makesthe laws we live by and no religion is true to the laws set out by their Gods.Thank God as those laws are quite barbaric. For example, both Yahweh and Allah,through the mouths of men, promote stoning for adultery and sundry other sins.This of course ignores that both Gods show justice as being close to an eye foran eye which is what secular laws try to gauge punishment by.
There is a military term that says that the pace to be setby the troops is as fast as the slowest man. This is so that no man is leftbehind.
Since we have collectively decided that secular law issuperior to the laws of heaven and God, does that mean that when Jesus return,he will validate secular law and ask us to follow Caesar?
