Lines of Defence

Deviation, obfuscation and confusion all fall into the mix when the enemy is at hand. The only escape route off this merry-go-round is through self-remembering. First conscious shock effort lifts you out of the melange. When you are stood in a state of rising confusion, overwhelming emotional force - however it manifests (and IT does & IT shall):

• Separate - cease Identifying with the state
  
• Remember Yourself

Get above the earthling in the midst of his event. He's a dumb hick that needs to be jettisoned. The power of the force to persuade us that the world is real only exists at this limiting 2nd state consciousness - get above that with inner-separation & non-identifying ... The Work can save you!

Similarly, the devil attacks the Bible. Scholars, academics, scientists, even clerics (among others) are all agents with powerful voices of persuasion, each providing reasons, emotions and rationales for dismissing and evading efforts to engage with the Bible. But none of the devil's agents has power over the simple effort of reading and listening and feeding from the True Vine - if you make that effort.

The Word reveals itself as something above and beyond all their reckoning and earthly knowledge.

Two Lines of Defence (against the World):

1. Do the Work
2. Read the Holy Bible
