Denial and Claim are Bookends....

>>>>"As far as us choosing, there is nothing to claim for we don't create anything.">>>

>>Whenever we choose we create a path down which we will travel. I have made many choices and created many paths. Some of them led to happiness and success, some of them led to unhappiness and failure and some of them led to a few nights in the county jail <g>>>

The process of "creating" is only "by appearance" only. For ALL creation is from Him, by Him, for Him, in Him and with Him. We simply "chose to receive" different paths from an infinite number of outcomes all of which already exist simultaneously in the infinite present NOW.

Emanuel Swedenborg outlined this revolutionary holographic ONE perspective in wonderful scientific detail from thousands of direct experiences throughout the Heaven and Hells. I have read only a 3-4 of his works, but from a careful review you will find that Swedenborg did not make one claim to any of the wisdom and knowledge he received as he gave full credit to the Lord.

Credit ALL to Him and watch how it, bit by bit, it completely begins to change the way you perceive others and the world around you.

>>I claim responsibility for those choices, those paths and the ultimate destinations. I would love to pawn a few of them off on somebody else but my conscience won't allow it.>>

You can claim responsibility for "chosing to receive" these paths, but the energy, light and Love that supports what is created cannot be claimed or credited to us.

If we "chose to receive" energies, thoughts and ideas which are inverted, perverted, dark and negative, just note that these spirits are not "created" by us. We simply "chose to receive" more of the ones which are in agreement with the conjunction of our understanding and that which which will - ie. Love.

But even these dark spirits received the energies and original truths - which get perverted and inverted - from the Lord for their very existence.

The truth behind reality is NOT what the natural mind "choses to see and understand." For ALL truth can come only from our Lord God in Heaven Jesus Christ.

And from the spiritual perspective which is free, we don't have to get all caught up with labels. If you don't agree with the choice of Jesus Christ as Lord then that's fine, too. For we all are "free to chose" based on what we understand as its conjioned with what we will/Love. But it all has to come from only ONE source. And that's where all credit and claim must get assigned to Him. Period.

Give our Lord credit and be sure to assign ALL claims for ALL that is full of free light, energy, wisdom, understanding and Love, etc. And if there are things that are not "of the Light which is Life and Love" then be sure to assign credit and claim where credit and claim is due to the dark spirits out there that find their way into using us as open conduits.

For that's all we are: conduits for light or darkness.

>>"For the entire basis for the existence of the illusion/LIE of SELF-EGO..." We can deny the existence of self but ask yourself this- Who is the denyer?>>

Even the word "deny" is another landmine like "claim" for it assumes "we" have the power to understand this LIE and remove the resulting evil.
Nope!

All credit and claim must be given up to Him.

Look at it simply as a process through which we "chose to receive" truth and understanding from our ONE Lord God Creator that, once again, is simply part of this "process of becoming" more of who we truly are - ie. the perfect beings who are connected our Divine Father through the path of Love that travels through the soul.

Peace.

Light!

ONE - LOVE!

GO!!
