The first deadly sin is PRIDE: “An excessive love of self or the desire to be better or more important than others. ‘Respect for the human person proceeds by way of respect for the principle that “everyone should look upon his neighbor (without exception) as ‘another self,’ above all bearing in mind his life and the means necessary for living it with dignity.”‘” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance168 views0 answers0 votesThe second deadly sin is LUST: “An intense desire, usually for sexual pleasure, but also for money, power or fame. ‘The God of promises always warned man against seduction by what from the beginning has seemed “good for food … a delight to the eyes … to be desired to make one wise.”‘” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance214 views0 answers0 votesThe third deadly sin is GLUTTONY: “Overconsumption, usually of food or drink. ‘The virtue of temperance disposes us to avoid every kind of excess: the abuse of food, alcohol, tobacco or medicine.'” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance180 views0 answers0 votesThe fourth deadly sin is GREED: “The desire for and love of possessions. ‘Sin … is a failure in genuine love for God and neighbor caused by a perverse attachment to certain goods.'” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance176 views0 answers0 votesThe fifth deadly sin is SLOTH: “Physical laziness, also disinterest in spiritual matters or neglecting spiritual growth. ‘Acedia or spiritual sloth goes so far as to refuse the joy that comes from God and to be repelled by divine goodness.'” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance181 views0 answers0 votesThe sixth deadly sin is ANGER (or WRATH): “Uncontrolled feelings of hatred or rage. ‘Anger is a desire for revenge … The Lord says, “Everyone who is angry with his brother shall be liable to judgment.”‘” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance175 views0 answers0 votesThe seventh deadly sin is ENVY: “Sadness or desire for the possessions, happiness, talents or abilities of another. ‘Envy can lead to the worst crimes. “Through the devil’s envy death entered the world.”‘” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance158 views0 answers0 votesWikipedia defines Eternal Sin: “The unforgivable sin is interpreted by Christian theologians in various ways, although they generally agree that one who has committed the sin is no longer able to repent, and so one who is fearful that they have committed it has not done so.” Also: “… to sin against the Holy Ghost (an unforgivable sin) is to confound Him with the spirit of evil, it is to deny, from pure malice, the Divine character of works manifestly Divine.” What is Creator’s perspective on the concept of eternal and unforgivable sin?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance193 views0 answers0 votesOrganized religion makes much ado about sin and its consequences. It does advocate prayer as one weapon to be used in the battle against it, but we have also learned that the prayers intended for this purpose would hardly be considered “empowered.” Can Creator share with us how Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol are the most effective means to combat the spiritual degradation of sin?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Divine Guidance183 views0 answers0 votesMax Freedom Long was a researcher and author of numerous books on the Polynesian religious and belief system known as “Huna.” What he has revealed in his writings can help shed light on a number of human spiritual mysteries. One aspect that received a lot of attention and focus is the triune spiritual structure of the typical human being, consisting of “low self,” “middle self,” and “high self.” Long wrote in his book, What Jesus Taught in Secret: A Huna Interpretation of the Four Gospels, “… the original secret taught that these three parts of the ‘mind’ were not parts of each other, but three separate things or selves which were joined in the closest possible association in man. Jesus even taught that the light self was so close and intimately attached to man that it might be called the God Within.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Higher Self249 views0 answers0 votesLong wrote, “One of the outstanding parts of the secret was the knowledge that only the subconscious self had the ability to use telepathy, and as all prayer had to go to the superconscious (higher self) TELEPATHICALLY, the prayers had to be made into thought forms and given to the subconscious to transmit to the superconscious (higher self). The making of a [prayer for a miracle] was based in large part on this mechanism.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Higher Self262 views0 answers0 votesLong wrote, “The subconscious self, and it alone, has the ability to manufacture from the foods we eat and the air we breathe our basic vital force or power. Once made, it stores it in the body for use, and shares it with the conscious mind self, who may be said to live as a guest in the bodily house, and who has little to do with the bodily processes. The superconscious self (higher self) must also be supplied with the vital force if we ask it to work with the dense materials of the lower plane of living and make miraculous changes in matter or simply make the ‘answer to prayers.'” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Higher Self222 views0 answers0 votesLong wrote, “… the conscious self is involved in the process of prayer, in that it makes the thought forms of the prayer and instructs the subconscious to send VITAL FORCE WITH THE TELEPATHIC PRAYER TO THE SUPERCONSCIOUS (HIGHER SELF).” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Higher Self190 views0 answers0 votesLong wrote, “If the low self does not desire to have a prayer answered, it will not do its part in the work and effort is useless.” Also, “If the low self fears the change of the new, it will block the path.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Higher Self213 views0 answers1 votesLong wrote, “The High Self is said to lack mana (or vital force or life force energy) because it has no physical body, and to depend on the low self for what it needs in its ordinary activities when away from the lower man. When we are asleep it is supposed to touch us and take a little mana (or life force energy), but for the heavy changes needed to work in the materials of the dense or physical world, much mana (vital force) is needed.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Higher Self206 views0 answers0 votes
