(We are, aren't we?)"<br /><br />It is the act of relfecting or mirroring that is the foundation of crime, addiction, and violence. The living and continous awareness of the presence of the spirit of Jesus Christ in the conscience and consciousness frees people from bondage to the reflective nature and the conceptual entities promoted through the agency of political (and all social sciences), religious, educational, and economic institutions and the agents of those institutions. The engagement in and dependency upon the reflective nature to guide and inform human relations promotes and nurtures conflict and strife. The more people thunder against and challenge (reflect or mirror) evil and good the more they promote and nuture the dialectic. Christ's living and continuous presence in the conscience and consciousness draws people out and frees human being from the dialectical cycle of the conceptual conjuration of thought-entities which bewitch the mind spellbond by the intellectual constructs of those who entreat for engagement in the relfective nature and its dialectical process instead of admonishing the direct and continous (moment by moment) presence of the spirit of Jesus Christ in the mind and heart, outside the reflective nature. The more the agents of the reflective nature promote the reflecting or mirroring and the conjuration of thought entities to "liberate God's children from every bondage" the more they will render God's children spellbound to the source of their bondage which is the dialectical process. God's children are become free in the continous presence of Jesus Christ not in engagement with and in the reflective `nature and thinking about good, evil, or God etc. The reflective nature keeps the direct experience of Christ in the conscience at a distance and binds human being types and shadows (thought-entities) conjured forth by the agents of the reflective nature. <br /><br /><br />kfsaylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14180375154787300539noreply@blogger.com
