Liberty

It is
really a bad world, Donatus, an incredibly bad world. Yet in the midst of it I
have found a quiet and holy people. They have discovered a joy which is a
thousand times better than any pleasure of this sinful life. They are despised
and persecuted, but they care not. They have overcome the world. These people,
Donatus are the Christians- and I am one of them    St Cyprian
                                       
Lets talk about the hows of getting things outside of us, inside of us. We do it all the time by accident but how on purpose? Well, God
simplifies this for us. He enters us when we believe in Him, and brings all His
endowments with Him. But is this enough? It is more than enough for now and
forever. Also it  champions a start to what is to come still in my remaining time controlled existence. Make sense?

 To
get the full benefit of this thought, we must speak of the objective and the
subjective, and try to make these clear. Subjective is sourced in me and
objective is sourced outside of me. This is simple so far. One we shall call “me-source”
and the other we will call “you-source,” meaning outside of me. So, we have “me-source”
and the opposite “you-source” and this is the difference.

So let’s consider, God and His nature of
love is a “you-source,” but once entering me, as spoken above, must become “me-source.”
This means, effortlessly coming in, He and I together become my new me. My new
me is now the source going out of me to others. This happens, and a person is
healed!

So, what stops this? There are two things.
First, “me-source” is not willing to receive God and His nature of love (“you-source”),
uniting with me, and becoming a new “me-source.” Secondly, I am too attached to
other “you-sources” and do not allow God as a “you-source” to even enter, to form
the new “me-source.”

 Simple arithmetic; 1 plus 1 equal 1 or, 1 plus
10 equals 10. Do I need to explain? Christ in me becomes the union of Christ
and me and still equals one: the new “me-source.” But Christ entering in,
finding 10 others, remains aloof and we are still left with 10. One plus one
can also equal one if my “me-source,” assuming its own god status (small g),
refuses the union.

Liberty is freedom from me, as “me-source,”
and the embrace of Him as “me-source,” making me-plus-Him eliminate me-plus-me.
A lot of folks take Him in as a particle of Knowledge; this changes nothing in
the realm of source. This type of me-plus-Him is a good piece of info, but, my
original “me-source” is still my “me-source.” Knowledge is all I can give
others now. No healing here.

Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is
liberty, 2 Corinthians 3:17. The Spirit of the Lord indwelling me effects all
of the above, liberating me from my big conundrum; me. As has been said
different ways in this book, living in the subjective, pre-God, “me-source,” we find what is wounded, bruised; fomenting disorder
and deceit.  The Spirit’s
entrance, and unifying penetration, quells the whole pre-union sphere of
existence, rendering it inoperable. A brand new liberated nature begins my new
sphere of existence. This is truly “to set at liberty them that are bruised” in
Luke 4:18.
