P614:6, 54:2.1 With the Son and in the Spirit
did God project eternal Havona, and ever since has there obtained the eternal
pattern of co-ordinate participation in creation -- sharing. This pattern
of sharing is the master design for every one of the Sons and Daughters
of God who go out into space to engage in the attempt to duplicate in time
the central universe of eternal perfection.
P614:7, 54:2.2 Every creature
of every evolving universe who aspires to do the Father's will is destined
to become the partner of the time-space Creators in this magnificent adventure
of experiential perfection attainment. Were this not true, the Father would
have hardly endowed such creatures with creative free will, neither would
he indwell them, actually go into partnership with them by means of his
own spirit.
P614:8, 54:2.3
Lucifer's
folly was the attempt to do the nondoable, to
short-circuit time in an
experiential universe. Lucifer's crime was the attempted creative disenfranchisement
of every personality in Satania, the unrecognized abridgment of the creature's
personal participation -- freewill participation -- in the long evolutionary
struggle to attain the status of light and life both individually and collectively.
In so doing, this onetime Sovereign of your system set the temporal purpose
of his own will directly athwart the eternal purpose of God's will as it
is revealed in the bestowal of free will upon all personal creatures. The
Lucifer rebellion thus threatened the maximum possible infringement of
the freewill choice of the ascenders and servers of the system of Satania
-- a threat forevermore to deprive every one of these beings of the thrilling
experience of contributing something personal and unique to the slowly
erecting monument to experiential wisdom which will sometime exist as the
perfected system of Satania. Thus does the Lucifer manifesto, masquerading
in the habiliments of liberty, stand forth in the clear light of reason
as a monumental threat to consummate the theft of personal liberty and
to do it on a scale that has been approached only twice in all the history
of Nebadon.
P615:1, 54:2.4 In short, what God
had given men and angels Lucifer would have taken away from them, that
is, the divine privilege of participating in the creation of their own
destinies and of the destiny of this local system of inhabited worlds.
P615:2, 54:2.5 No being
in all the universe has the rightful liberty to deprive any other being
of true liberty, the right to love and be loved, the privilege of worshiping
God and of serving his fellows.
