The Way Of The Spiritual Leader - 151 Chapter 4. The Progress of Church and Witnessing Section 1. The Growth and Progress of the Church
1. Basic Theories of Development 4) The element of development
Without God's love there cannot be any progress, and where there is absence of God's love, existence itself will be destroyed. [27-342] The core of love is created in such a way that there can always be harmony; so, when the original heart is touched, the object will without fail try to become one there. In that way, when the object desires to be created into a substantial being by the hands of the subject, then there can be progress. From that moment, development centering on God is possible. [29-321] The origin of our life is the relationship between father and son. It is the realm where I can say God is the father and I am the son. Without father, I cannot prosper. [26-221] 5) The Form of Progress
Does progress proceed forward in a straight line? No. You should understand that. Even a bullet does not travel in a straight line.
It makes this type of turns. What is that? Like the breathing of air, it is carrying on the action of give and take. Do you understand what I mean? [Yes] [141-44]
Progress moves forward in circular action, in a line similar to a spiral. [28-247] |
