The problem of a perceived centre

When cobwebs are cleared out, clear thinking is the effect. If anyone has more clarity, I welcome your thoughts.
Absolute truth #1: All things are caused. Causation determines every moment. In any given moment, one does not know what thing or things are going to be caused. Which means caused things are hidden to consciousness until they are deterministically revealed (aka God's will).
Absolute truth #2: The law of identity, A = A. Caused things are the law of identity in action, that is, they are what they are in and of the moment of having been caused, aka their existence (God does not play dice with the universe).
Absolute truth #3: Caused things appearing from the hidden deterministic causality appear as fleeing, momentary understandings. It is this truth of understandings (things) being "caused of the moment" of multiple unknown causes that causes the ego grief as it likes to consider itself a singular independent entity, the prime mover or causer of things, aka belief in inherent existence. In other words, the ego creates a void in existence and fills the void with its beliefs, not realizing that it was caused by God, the hidden causality to do so. Ignorance is caused just as is wisdom. Reasoning reveals that there is no actual void anywhere in God or the causality in which the ego can stand so as to cause anything of its imagined singular will.
Absolute truth #4: Reasoning the things of God reveals what is true of God based on the reasoned truth of God that He/It is a totality or causality of things absent of inherent existence.
To understand these four absolute truths causes freedom in the sense that there is finally an understanding of why one had to suffer their seeking of absolute truth (their ignorance), that being the longstanding wrong view of God or self as residing in the centre of causality causing things according to what it has heard or what was said in a holy book or a book of science, no difference. The metaphysical, therefore psychological problem of God or self as "king of the world."
