– Metatheology – GOD & self; faith & life; personhood & the world

– When Jesus of Nazareth fully attained GOD-consciousness/self-realization, he became Jesus Christ!

– ‘The Deep Magic’:

Self-sacrifice as substitution or compensation for another person’s faults/flaws » ‘reversal of death’ (since the Law-link between an individual’s sin & their own death is broken) » divinization of the self & salvation of the other!

So the vicarious victim’s death is not a result of their own sin, & the death of the ‘sinner’ is also not due to his/her sin, because it has already been ‘paid’ for by the death of the substitute. The death of the substitute is due to the another’s (sinner’s) misdeeds and the death of the sinner is due to another’s (‘original/Adamic’) sin. So both the substitute and the sinner are resurrected, since neither of their death is ‘deserved’!!!

– Evil = law-sin (personal) + suffering-death (cosmic)

Therefore, salvation/redemption = reconciliation-atonement + renewal-resurrection!
