The Way of the Gods called Charity
The formula to Charity
“The Law of Obedience, the 1st Great Commandment”
Submitting to the Light of Christ, the divine light inside ourselves or the “word of God”, is how we hold to the iron rod and walk the straight and narrow path in all things. This is living the 1st Great Commandment. Recognizing and seeking “the right” and submitting ourselves out of love to His Light. This is how we love God. 1 Nephi 15:23-25, 2 Nephi 2:5, Mosiah 2:19-25.
What happens when we do this? Let’s picture in our minds a ”right angle” and we are the bottom line of it or “the fall” line and when we submit to His Light we become the line going straight up, this is when we become at-one-ment with His will. This is the, “how to love God” with all our heart, soul and mind. By submitting to His Son’s guiding Light, or commandments. The only way back up, obeying the first great commandment. +
“The Law of Sacrifice, the 2nd Great Commandment”
This occurs when His love has entered our hearts by the Holy Ghost by us living “righteously” (see law of obedience or D&C 84:43-53).
In depth revelation comes from the 1st Comforter or Holy Ghost which inspires us to live “The Law of Condescension”. We become so full of the love of God that we want to invite others to experience it (Mosiah 27:24-37, Alma 29:1-2) by going down to help “build” someone higher, by loving them unconditionally And reflecting our Savior’s love, bringing His message that His arms are outstretched still (2 Nephi 1:15, 2 Nephi 28:32, Alma 34:16)
Now with the word “build” in mind we can think of the builder’s compass or the “V” which makes the circle of “one eternal round”, think of the architect spinning the compass on paper.
We condescend for others “or serve” to lift them higher by it being revealed to us if we have taken His Spirit as our guide. Thus lifting ourselves and them higher and we do it by the love of God for the love for God (Mosiah 2:17).
We keep doing this descent for a higher ascension and grow “line upon line”. This is the least becoming the greatest, the servant to all through love. Only by submitting to Christ’s guiding Light, following it and receiving the 1st Comforter or Holy Ghost can we be filled with His love (Moroni 8:26). We can only truly love others unto condescension by the power and guidance of the Holy Ghost which brings the knowledge of God which is simply, purer ways to love.
Only by descending for others and to then help them rise higher are we truly living the 2nd Great Commandment, to love our neighbor. =
Charity
Charity, the “only way”, all else must fail. The way Christ took to become Savior of the world, Alpha and Omega, God of all, He descended below all to rise above all, by the power of God called Charity.
Moroni 7:45 And charity suffereth long, and is kind, and envieth not, and is not puffed up, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil, and rejoiceth not in iniquity but rejoiceth in the truth, beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
46 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, if ye have not charity, ye are nothing, for charity never faileth. Wherefore, cleave unto charity, which is the greatest of all, for all things must fail–
47 But charity is the pure love of Christ, and it endureth forever; and whoso is found possessed of it at the last day, it shall be well with him.
48 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, pray unto the Father with all the energy of heart, that ye may be filled with this love, which he hath bestowed upon all who are true followers of his Son, Jesus Christ; that ye may become the sons of God; that when he shall appear we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is; that we may have this hope; that we may be purified even as he is pure. Amen. Art by J. Kirk Richards “Every Knee Shall Bow”
