MM Book 1 Chapter 3-24

Salvation was introduced by Christ giving up His power and authority but not the responsibility, and salvation will be, and is, sustained and maintained by this same method !! -- no man owns God's truth, yet it belongs to us all, it is God's gift and we hold it in trust, sharing freely with others in the humility that God entreats !! -- once God entrusts you with His truth you are honor bound to be prepared to share it, you *owe* an answer to anyone who asks !! - God's truth is not to be restricted in any way !! -- we are all called to be students, disciples of Christ, "learners" who in turn are educated to teach others, who *deliver* and *freely share* the truth !! - people need an introduction to the Family of God, they need an introduction to themselves, their potential !! -- to reason is to be pliable; to bend with the wind(s) and not snap; to grow and be strengthened, rooted in the good ground !! -- God is *relationship* and so is His Family; everything about God and His Family Law [10C] is relationship [to God and to each other; our love of/to God, and our love of/to our fellow man] - the conversion process is *building relationship*, intimate and personal on the *God-level* - in order to honor and obey God we create the relationship [the agape environment] with Him, *together*;this makes it possible for us and others to do so [when we honor God we in turn honor ourselves and each other] !! --secular/religious governmental and institutional relationships replace God; hierarchy is NOT God-level !! - the God-level relationship [in *all* aspects of life] is face-to-face and human-scale, grounded in our day-to-day learning experiences, where God's agape love can freely flow !!
