No. 1
If I receive a windfall of a large quantity of moneys through no fault of my own, it does not make me a better person. Only more desirable to those who value money, not the person.
No. 2
If one values that which is within another, does he value that which is within himself? And do you have to be evil to see evil? And do you have to be saintly to see saintly?
No. 3
Is the strength, power of living or being alive; for you, or against you? And are you for the strength, power of living or being alive, or against it? And are these not factors of belief?
No. 4
The experience of condemnation is for those who condemn my brother; and so is judgement, and so is forgiveness.
No. 5
If one agrees, then he would be amongst the ranks, but if he disagrees, he would not be amongst the ranks, or take part in.
If a man preaches dissent amongst the ranks, he will be set out side the ranks. It seems to me that the unethical thing to do would be to pretend to be apart of the ranks, but yet preach dissent amongst the ranks. It would seem to be wiser to openly not take part in the ranks, and preach freely. But if one agree freely to be a part of the ranks, then he should march the same.
No. 6
Are men to bind themselves by vow to destruction, or living? Surly, if it be the living, then what is destruction for?
No. 7
If a bum seeks a hand out, what does he get In the name of? Is it for the living of the moment or for the reaching out of the soul? Are not men the same; do we not seek the provision for ether the moment, or for the sake of or soul. The seeing believe, but the blind know not what to believe. So the blind lead the blind, but do not lead the seeing.
No. 8
What is Mercy and Truth for? Shouldn’t it be for Life? Is this not a recognition of that which is good. That which is good is good but who is the judge thereof, for how can there be condemnation of Mercy and Truth, unless one perceives himself as one that can judge good and evil?
Hence no judgement required, only recognition. How can there be a judge there of, for it is good no matter what Mercy and Truth is perceived as. Therefore Mercy and Truth is, whether it be recognized or not.
No. 9
What is God’s Will to survive? Could it be that He is Forever?
No. 10
If one seeks to live, then one agrees with Life, the source thereof. And not with that which would do otherwise.
A seed contains the instruction to live, and the ground yields to the instruction in order to experience the life that it had not before it yielded to the instruction in the seed. But if the ground is of no condition to yield, it will not experience life, nor bear seed of the same.
If one agrees to a certain life, one yields to it, but the fruits are the same that as that which is yielded to.
No. 11
Hard and resistant ground is only useful under foot.
No. 12
Certainly circumstances are not instructions, therefore there are no signs, only that which shall become of. It is instructions the show what to be, no matter the circumstances. For that which is of, shall be.
