MM Book 1 Chapter 3-7

Baptism is a "betrothal" [considered married], a ** one flesh ** union with Christ; we are the Bride of Jesus Christ: ONE FLESH WITH CHRIST, HIS VERY FLESH AND BLOOD !! -- "increased in riches" results in self-satisfaction, an erosion of the God-need/awareness; God-ing empathy is lessened [money becomes the false "agency" of God]; ANYTHING ABOVE OUR NEED(S) MUST BE GIFTED TO MEET THE NEED OF OTHERS: our gratitude/awareness of God will grow by our God-ing, it is the *only* way to grow in the grace/knowledge of God; anything beyond need is "greed" -- do we request/demand SANCTUARY from the "systemic", do we demand RIGHT OF GOD, SABBATH COMMUNITY free from the "complicity of evil" or do we make community "within" the systemic and reduce our complicity by slowly withdrawing ?? - slowly withdrawing is the first step, but TOTAL WITHDRAWAL must eventually be realized, accomplished; the systemic "vested interest" will NOT relinquish what it has taken, a "request of withdrawal" will NOT be considered; we must pool the resources we have [give back to God what is His] and "come together" into a *PURE* SABBATH COMMUNITY [in this world (kosmos) but not *of* this world] utilizing Christ *as* Systemic, depending on the protection of God as we gift His Rights [vs. the commodification of life] [pure Apostolic Christ-ian-ity; ** EKKLESIAN COMMUNITY **] !! - WE BUILD A NEW WORLD BY GIFTING WHAT WE HAVE, minimizing the claim of others until the claim is negated by utility of alternative/sustainable means (ie. negative-interest community currencies): pure eco-nomy, A SOCIETY OF THE GIFT !!
