You’re wrong and so is the anon to whom you’re replying. God isn’t some sort of “being” that “changes” he’s the idea of perfected humanity, man in a state that sublates the oppositions between eg sensibility and duty, community and individuality, good and evil, through forgiveness. God is an idea that comes to be fulfilled, the telos of man. On the other hand, because “He” is not a separate being or a person, “He” is not God at all in any orthodox sense, and you could fairly describe the Phenomenology as atheistic.
“The content of the representational thinking (of xianity) is absolute spirit, and the sole remaining issue is sublating the mere form…. The overcoming of the object of consciousness is not to be taken one-sidedly, as showing that the object is returning into the self, but rather, it is to be taken more determinately, both that the object as such exhibited itself to the self as a vanishing moment, as well as being instead the self-relinquishing of self-consciousness that posits thinghood, and that this self-relinquishing does not only have a negative meaning but rather a positive one as well…. Self-consciousness knows this nullity of the object as a result, on the one hand, of self-consciousness relinquishing itself of itself - for in this self-relinquishing it posits itself as object…. On the other hand… self-consciousness has equally as well also sublated this self-relinquishing and this objectivity, and it has taken them back into itself; thus in its otherness as such it is at one with itself.”
The “object” and “thing” to be sublated in absolute knowing is Christ. Christ turns out to be a mythological prefigurement of completed modernity. Many say Hegel was a wizard but truth be told he was something of a satanist, or at the very least a fedora. The “scientific”, esoteric writing serves as a beard for radically humanistic and anti-Christian ideals.
