My dear brother Paul,
AMEN to your holy thoughts, your prayers, and words of advise. I thank you for selecting for yourself a kind spirit.
As I have been so often in the habit of saying: "A man is what he chooses to be."
Which leaves us faced with the sad truth that some use their free will to choose self over Universal Beauty, Eternal Truth, and Infinite Goodness: With These I am enamored, and I choose to cling to Them eternally.
To those who purposely reject these Three, refusing to make Them one with their lives, Jesus will say, "I never knew you."
But I pray that as many as will it, they become one with the Ministry of Three, and so also become united with me, and we will embrace, rejoice, and regale, forever and ever.
Salvation, blessing, justification, and righteousness are as near to us as an act of the will, as an act of our own choosing. So good and gracious is our God. He invites, but foes not force.
Be you blessed, my brother Paul.
