It's more than that. It is all encompassing. You want to remove the spiritual element. You don't see God. You see reality. You feel God.
You make no sense at all as if you don't know what you are talking about because, obviously, you don't.
The only thing about a human being that is "like God", incorporeal, is their consciousness, their "spiritual" state of being, whether their mind, their very soul, is enlightened or in complete chaos like yours. That's reality.
Your so called "feeling God" is just the narcissistic delusions of an imagination that is unrestrained by reality.
Unless your mind has been purified and refined by complying with Divine instruction you cannot "see God"
You don't feel God with your mind. You feel God with your entire being.
Again. Its not about any "feelings". To see God is to understand God. To love God one must first know God. To know God, as Jesus said, is eternal life and the only way to have hold of that life is by complying with Divine instruction, because the promise for doing so is eternal life in the sanctuary of God, heaven on earth if you do it.
To profess to love God because a 'feeling' without knowing God is just pretense. Knowing happens in the mind. One cannot love a God that they have never seen or heard a single peep from, ever, do not know or understand.
Everything that you think see hear feel experience dream believe regret imagine or know is perceived in the mind. This dictates your entire experience of life. If your head is full of bullshit your life will suck. You already know this.
God is not a feeling. God is a living being, the highest form of life. To be in communion with God is to have a relationship more intimate than any relationship that a person can have with another. The give and take and exchange of ideas on a spiritual level. It is not possible know or experience the living God without a purified mind.
The hidden purpose of God in giving Law is to teach people how to prepare their mind to stand in the presence of the living God knowing him because they have become more than wild animals and ascended into His realm by standing on the firmament, basis, of heaven which is the right WAY to understand and comply with the law.
To take the law literally, like you do, perverts the image and likeness of God into that of a cruel and capricious puerile petty tyrant. The deeper implications of the same Law, alluded to by Jesus when he said "eat my flesh", reveals the image and likeness of God that is a present, dedicated, loving, wise and benevolent Father, my God.
The god that impregnated a virgin and became a man you profess to love with your entire being is a sadistic asshole that doesn't exist. And you do an excellent job of reflecting the image and likeness of that piece of shit.
In the creation account, there are two lights in the sky. The lesser light rules the night and the greater light rules the day. The lesser light stands for the literal interpretation and application of the law, the greater light stands for the deeper implications of th same Law which actually reflects wisdom worthy of a loving and benevolent God.
