Hi everyone; namaste:
We are now on paragraph 3 of chapter 3 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.
We have soared above the former understanding of such laws as the ten commandments brought forth by Moses. Too many people used the commandments to condemn the wrong doing of other people. The ten commandments and other rules of behavior are actually indicators of how you are doing. Since we don't judge and condemn people anymore, we use the moral codes as measuring sticks for ourselves. Instead of condemning one another, now we are affirming one another as co-creators with God.
Commentary: Since we all make mistakes, the rules of behavior are useful as guidelines to keep us on the right track. But rather than focusing on not doing wrong, we focus on the glorious possibilities before us as co-creators with God. We naturally want to do what is right when we are consciously working with God.
