Let me ask you this: "What is a principle that bends based on the conditions?" It is not a principle at all. A true principle applies under all conditions and is applied equally. No one can bend it or escape it.

It is said, "You shall not kill." Why then do you say, "You shall not kill, unless..."? Are you not then breaking the principle based on the conditions? Or if you say, "Love one another," yet when someone hates you, you hold it against them, are you then not breaking the principle based on the conditions?

I tell you: a true principle does not bend. That is why it is said, "God does not show favoritism."

If your principle is "You shall not kill," and someone is trying to take your life, why should your principle bend based on what they are doing? Is not your principle above their actions?

What is a person that tells the truth only when it benefits them? I tell you: he is a liar. Someone who loves the truth will tell the truth even when it does not benefit them. And someone who sacrifices themselves for the sake of truth is a man of truth.

Why do you think Jesus said, "If someone slaps you on one cheek, turn to them the other also. If someone takes your coat, do not withhold your shirt from them"? Because the principle does not bend.

You will ask me, "But how can this be?" If all you value is this World, you will never be able to live by these principles, because what you value is your prison.

A slave of the self will always do what the self desires, but a slave of truth will do What Is.

"Whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it."

It is you making that distinction. The principle is: "Do not take someone's life." By saying, "Kill and murder aren't the same thing," you have made that distinction because it is easier for you than to accept the principle. By making distinctions, you prove that you put this World before it.

The reason you put this World before it is because of attachment. As I said, "What you value is your prison." If you value truth, you will not lie, and if you value life, you will not take it from someone.

"Whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it."

Why should a rule be universal? That's retarded. You assert rules must be universal because... you want it to be so?

I like the structure, and you write well, but in stripping these phrases of their origin, you are also removing their authority. Your quote at the end, you have to re-apply sans it's author to keep with the style, but without the statement maker, it is, ultimately a mere statement, and not a true one. We can quote him, but we cannot tell people to follow his teachings in another name. If I lose my life for some other person, I will not find it, because no one else has authority the over life to then give me my life back.

That said, I like your structure, and your presentation.

the christcuck idea is to turn you into a cuck that cant and wont defend himself so your enemies can abuse you, exploit you and kill you easier.
for being a good cuck they promise you some happy afterlife that doesnt exist.
but christcucks are very gullible, very stupid people who are okay with this.

My master is the solitude and sanctity of me and my family. My happiness.

That's aligned with greater mores too since everyone basically wants that as well.

If a man doesn't get his oneitis his sphere of concern starts to fill the known universe, in a subconscious attempt to woo her. Like what Hitler did, he did what he did in a state of pronounced heartbreak. Now with the internet a man can monetarily bridge with his girl like a surgical laser, and no one has to know about it.

This is the greater morality.

A rule like "don''t kill" is useful for structuring a society that does not devolve into a pile of shit where every retard is granted authority over life and death but it doesn't mean this is some magic universal rule to be applied at all times. Sometimes killing is good but we don't do it because we subordinate our moral opinion to the greater social good and moral consensus. Whether I decide to go against this consensus or not is up to me. I am my own master.

Your words reveal that, at the very least, you see the weight of what I am saying. Many reject it outright because it requires them to look inward and humble themselves.

I tell you: if you are able to look inward and humble yourself, none of these things will be impossible. But if the World is your master, you will always seek to please your master. But if your master is God, who Himself is Truth, nothing will be impossible.

To worship God is to live according to the Truth, and to live according to it fully, you must embody these principles. You will not be condemned for not embodying them perfectly; the very fact you even consider these things shows where your heart is at.

The Son entered the World to show us an example, so that we should do as He did. The Son came into the World to reveal the Father. You were created in His image; to be that image is to reflect what He is.

Anyone who does not worship What Is and instead worships what is not is a worshipper of Satan. It is said, "He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies."

God is What Is. Satan is what is not. What is not is not something new, but a distortion of what is. Satan does not create; he distorts and destroys. The greatest lie is not the lie that is the opposite of truth. The greatest lie is the truth viewed through a distorted lens.

That is why it is said, "The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eyes are unhealthy, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!"

The healthy eye says, "What Is? Let me understand, and I will form myself according to that." The unhealthy eye says, "What do I want?" and "How should it be?" and "What benefits me?" But truth does not care about any one of those things. Truth is what is when you strip those away and look at reality through healthy eyes.

There are only two principles:
You shall
or
You shall not

Choose to follow them, or don't, but don't condition it on what the action in question is or you are not truly following the principle
>>
The calling to everlasting glory differs in each of our life's paths
Just as a murderer can become a saint through true penance, so can we fulfil our measure of grace in the afterlife through repentance of our sins.
>whoever keeps the whole law but stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it

Jesus Christ is Lord of Lords and King of Kings.
