forever...

from Demon: A Memoir by Tosca Lee. Very riveting book, the Bible as told by a fallen angel.

...I have to tell you one other significant thing that happened.

In the Jewish temple, Elohim's [God's] Spirit resided in the Holy of Holies. Do an Internet search if you don't know what I mean. All you really need to know is that it was the most sacred place on earth. Only the high priest could enter it and then only once a year and bearing the blood of atonement--one of El's many concessions to the clay people [humans]. the curtain concealing the Holy of Holies from the rest of the temple was heavy, requiring more than a hundred men to move it. There was no mistaken entry, and the symbolism was blatant: there had been no open communion with El since those days in the garden.

This is what you need to know: as the God-man [Jesus], hanging on the cross like a common criminal, died, the curtain ripped. Access to God, so long denied to any but the appointed, was now laid open to anyone, the blood of atonement having been paid in full according to the old law. The heavy partition that had separated the spirit of El from the fallen soul of man was broken forever...

Word of the Week
Prautes – the Greek word for gentleness; humility, meekness.

Gentleness is a characteristic of Jesus
“By the meekness and gentleness of Jesus Christ, I Paul appeal to you.” 2 Corinthians 10:1

We show the gentleness of Christ when we approach others including enemies in a humble and caring spirit, not using force to get one’s way.

And as children of God, we are to bear the fruit of gentleness:
“But the fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and
self-control. Against such things there is no law.” Galatians 5:23
