Gospel of oneness

Hello everyone;

We are now on paragraphs 2 and 3 in chapter 6 on the First Letter to the Orinthians from the book "Gospel of One; Letters of Aul."

"These court cases are an awful blot on your community. Wouldn't it be better to forgive one another and start with a clean slate. If you seek revenge then it will bring you more hurt and infamy.

Don't you see that you are falling back into the illusions of life. Those people who don't care about the God of all life will not be joining your community. Neither will those people who use and abuse each other and the earth and animal life. Many of you know from experience what I am talking about because you used to be on that list. But you finally made the effort to clean yourselves up and get a fresh start and once again remember that you are one with God."

Commentary: The urge to get revenge and even the score is a strong impulse in many people and societies. But if we give in to the urge to get revenge, then we join in with all the people who don't take the advice of Jesus to heart.. Forgive one another is one of his main messages. How nice it is to forgive and take that burden off of ourselves.
