Relationship With God, Right Now

12/30/2023

X,Y or Z-Axis

On the topic of having strong opinions when you are an XY person...

Take Kill and Eat was only true for one person on planet earth when God said that to him. Take Kill Eat was only for Peter and for that moment. No one gets to slam that down to the XY and make a “new” good-evil out of it that applies to everyone at all times. Or even for Peter at some other point, that empowers him to do what he wants. We don’t get to make our own “Z”: “It should be FINE for me to do ___!” Never are those words Right. Never. RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD, RIGHT NOW, is where the Z-axis is and God lives. One person, Peter, had to respond to the Moment, in a way that obviously confused him initially. But HE WAS LOOKING FOR GOD, as Abraham was when he sincerely and decisively, without resentment or excuses, raised the knife over Isaac.

How about you? Excuses and principles and flesh — will they get in your way of being a “son or daughter of Abraham” - an Oil-Bearing, Manifest son of God?

Looking for God, and His Breath and His Aroma, that’s what I always want!

Had Peter already known the Z-axis SPIRIT-led Life, and the other disciples he needed to convince weren’t still young in the Way as well... he wouldn’t have neeeeeeeded a “sheet coming down” and audible voice. But, alas... Breaking off of the X-Y is hard for stubborn or fearful or religious, prideful, shallow people, and the rebellious hyper-spiritual or worldly don’t get to make up their own Z-axis because they don’t want to be “bound by religion.”
