Segment 1
These Natural Laws which are personified in the allegorical portrayal of Satan, perpetually test us -- and only when we can prevail over the Laws embodying all that is personified in the name Jacob (James) -- at the level we are at -- are we then able to arise to a higher plane of mind and spirit which is personified in the name Yeshua (Joshua/Jesus). When the Gospel account of Jesus stated: Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me. For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and that of the gospel will save it. You must become all that is personified in the Gospel account of Jesus -- as stated: "You, therefore, must be perfect, as your Heavenly Father is perfect" (Matt 5:48). And this is the Destiny of all of mankind.
Unlike many of our educational systems which engage in various forms of social-promotion from grade to grade, the Natural Laws which are responsible for our mental and spiritual advancement require each of us to achieve results that will prepare us to embrace the next level of mental and spiritual proficiency. And at each step in our advancement, we are tested (see The Laws That Control Our Lives) to ensure that we are prepared to function and learn on the next level of mind and being. And this testing is the meaning of the proverbial Jacob's Ladder that must be climbed one rung at a time -- whereby each rung elevates us to the next level, and it is impossible to grab and raise up to the next rung, without letting go and releasing ourselves from the previous rung. Thus, as stated in the Gospel Of The Nazirenes: "God gives you all truth, as a ladder with many steps, for the salvation and perfection of the soul, and the truth which seems today, you will abandon for the higher truth tomorrow. Press toward perfection." In the progress of most people, a multitude of lifetimes is required because the person can't open their minds to higher truth -- i.e., "...the truth which seems today, you will abandon for the higher truth tomorrow" . Which means that in the example of most people, Soul-progression is limited to incremental paltry steps that often requires lifetimes to complete even one rung of the proverbial Jacob's ladder.
Segment 2
The Octaves And The Narrow Gate: The (forbidden) fruit of the Tree of Duality represents the thoughts and impressions of the divided male and female columns of the Tree of Life. And this is why it is written in the Gospel of Philip: When Eve was still with Adam, death did not exist. When she was separated from him, death came into being. If he enters again and attains his former self, death will be no more . Adam and Eve is of course representative of the divided male and female columns of the Tree of Duality -- BUT, we must also recognize that the columns as represented by Adam and Eve, are standing on, and is therefore connected to the lower earth, and their heads are in the opposite upper polarity of air or higher spiritual areas of mind and being. In biblical Greek, the word for air also portrays spirit. In the portrayal of the four gates, each of the four paradoxical opposites (male, female, earth, and air), are each the product of Trinities comprised of male/female and (third-force) balance. Which means that the twelve spheres of mind are the product of four trinities -- and it is the four points of balance that is representative of the four gates of the mind. As explained in the above subheading (see Wholeness of Mind & Being http://TreeOfLife.Nazirene.org#wholeness ) Man's superior intellect and ability to know and understand and evolve to a condition of Enlightenment in the Knowledge of all Truths, is manifest in THE POTENTIAL of his great diversity of Mind that has the unique ability to perceive all sides of any given equation -- diverse, complex and often conflicting perspectives that can in many instances be portrayed as paradoxical opposites. What is a paradox? A paradox exists when two opposing truths are equally true (male and female), though often conflicting -- and can only be harmonized by an evolved third-force (offspring) balance of mind that functions on an higher plane than the two opposing opposite truths. A paradox is often portrayed in the image of the Triangle at the right -- where the two opposing paradoxical truths are represented by the points of the opposite horizontal line -- with the (evolved) third-force balance existing on a higher plane -- with the angles which are representative of the Laws being equal but reversed on the horizontal line, and equal again on the third-force balance on the higher plane.
Segment 3
An immature (earthly) understanding would be portrayed with the third-force balance existing on the same horizontal line as the two opposing paradoxical truths. Thus, as the mind matures and the Laws (angles) are prevailed over on the elevated higher plane, only then can the paradoxical opposites be resolved. And from a Trinitarian perspective, this is a reality of the Three being One and Equal.

Segment 5
In the same way that every physical embryo that is conceived must be comprised of the equal chromosomes of male and female brought together and manifest in oneness, this same absolute balance must not only be achieved in the life-giving thoughts and impressions that is able to enter within the "narrow strait gate" , but the substance of the lower earthly and upper heavenly elements of each thought and impression must equally be balanced to manifest Wholeness in the thought and impression. Only what is Whole can pass through the "narrow strait gate" in the Center of the Mind as patterned in the diagram of the Tree of Life -- and the Life-Giving thoughts and impressions that grow and evolve the mind beyond organic limitations of natural man and woman, must be made up of the four part essence of the male and female and heaven and earth opposites that are brought together in what can be portrayed as a Thought-Embryo that brings about the transformation of the mind though the the process of mental-expansion and spiritual-deepening. Those thoughts that are not equally balanced by being comprised of the essence of the four gates of opposites -- as tested by the Law of Octaves -- cannot enter thought the "narrow strait gate" , and are therefore miscarried and they are diverted outwardly, and the vital life-force is then lost into nature. This loss of the vital life-force in the parable of the prodigal son is portrayed as the "riotous living" that squanders away the inheritance.
Segment 6
The twisting of the Natural Laws at designated intervals of testing, inhibits the unbalanced advancement of impressions from progressing in a straight line -- turning the steps of the progression back to its source in the earth -- thereby inhibiting the progression from being elevated onto a higher plane that the person is incapable of intellectually functioning at. Thus, unless you can prevail over the Laws at the interval where the testing takes place, you will fail to advance beyond the functional level where you are at. Therefore, in order to prevail over the Laws at the interval of testing, you must bring into the equation the balance of the opposite polarities -- thereby manifesting the necessary Wholeness as personified in the Gospel statement: "They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance" (Mark 2:17). Wholeness requires both opposite paradoxical polarities to be manifest in a unifying third-force that overcomes the twisting of the Laws -- which twisting causes the line of progression to be turned back to its source in the earth. And it is this turning of the line of progression that can be personified as the (Satanic) Force that keeps our thinking and perceptive-vision earth-bound and carnal -- forcing us to perpetually repeat the sequences of progression until we are able to prevail over the Natural Laws which test our progress. And this testing of the progressive advancement through the Natural Laws is personified in the statement: " Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say to you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able " (Luke 13:24). In order to enter through the "strait gate" , you must prevail over the twisting of the Natural Laws which test your actions and progression for Wholeness and Completion -- thereby enabling you to advance in a strait line -- passing through the "strait gate" -- instead of the twisting back to the earth-level of consciousness.
Segment 7
In the above (see Foundational Process of Birth), the Gospel of Thomas saying 22 (see Saying 22) states: "...and when you make the male and the female one and the same, so that the male not be male nor the female female ...then will you enter the kingdom" -- the Center Column of the Tree of Life is neither male or female -- but is the Third-Force Balance of the outer male and female columns of the Tree of Duality -- the eating of the fruit thereof, allegorically brings death to the eater. Why death? Because our Soul or True-Self dwells in Wholeness, and is not subject to the division of male and female. Which means, that so long as we remain divided across the dynamic polarities of male and female, it will remain impossible for us to comprehend our own Higher Soul-Reality (see http://SoulSelf.org ). As the Doe, Re, Me of the thought-octave progresses into the Foundation Sphere of the Mind as personified in the diagram of the Tree of Life, unless a Balance and Wholeness of the Male/Female Impressions is achieved which make them Complete, the twisting of the Law of Octaves will force the progression into one of the outer (male or female) columns -- and with the twisting into the outer columns of the Tree of Duality, the "strait gate" through the Center cannot be entered -- therefore, the paradoxical polarities of male and female cannot be merged and restored into the necessary Wholeness that will permit entrance up the Center Column and into what is personified as the Kingdom.
Segment 8
The development of mind, spirit and the elevation of consciousness is an enduring process of mental deepening and expansion. In the same way that our physical body was formed as orchestrated by the Natural Laws, so too is our Mind and Mental Bodies that surround physical form. With the exception that in order for the Mind to form, it most be subject to the choices we make and the exercise of freewill. As we begin to deepen our consciousness, we are able to tap into our twelve-dimensional Eternal-Self that is a Being of Light -- which we are an expression of that has been projected into this three-dimensional realm. But the process of deepening our mind requires a great amount of work on self -- i.e., "We must through many tribulations enter the kingdom of God" (Acts 14:22). In the Epistle to the Corinthians Paul commands to "take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ" (2 Cor 10:5) -- but how can such a reality be achieved? To affirm this requirement as genuine, the Gospel account of Jesus warns: "But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment" (Matt 12:36 - see Judgment Day - Evolving To Maturity Of Mind And Being ). Idle words can be defined as those thoughts or impressions which are not, and cannot, be returned to the Source through the "narrow strait gate" . , which when tested for Wholeness by the Law of Octaves, are diverted and lost out into nature. Which is why Paul tells us to "Pray without ceasing" (1Thes 5:17). Perpetual prayer can be defined as positive thoughts of a higher expression that is able to be drawn up through the "strait gate" -- invoking the process of expansion and deepening of our Mind.
Segment 9
As Jacob/James, the brother of Yeshua/Jesus, the man who was the first leader of the New Covenant Church and was known as a true holy man, wrote that in order to fulfill the vision of the Gospel, one had to " bridle the whole body" (James 3:2). While this may appear totally alien from the perspective of the modern Christian who fully indulges in the unbounded excesses of our present-day cultural lifestyle, the Apostle Paul confirmed the validity of these words from a New Covenant perspective when he wrote of the necessity to "beat my body and make it my slave..." (1 Cor 9:27 NIV). Moreover, when Paul stated that salvation is by faith over the ritual works of the Law of Moses, what he portrayed as faith meant an entirely different thing to the Apostle Paul than what is being preached from our pulpits today. And this can be seen in Pauls commandment to all who would call themselves a Christian to " Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature" (Col 3:5). If the congregation of believers could simply have faith, without living a Consecrated Life set apart from the thinking and lifestyle of the people of this world, then Paul would not have warned the believers of the simple faith that: For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live (Rom 8:13). To mortify the deeds of the body takes work -- a great amount of work -- and this work cannot be accomplished through a static faith. The problem is that these biblical commandments have absolutely nothing in common with the doctrine of faith that was promoted by Martin Luther in the Middle-ages.
Segment 10
When Paul taught to "take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ" , what he was stating was to balance and make whole every thought so it can enter into the "narrow gate" and bring about the necessary expansion and deepening of mind. Those thoughts that are not balanced and whole, are diverted into the outer columns of the Tree of Duality and the bio-energy is then squandered away and lost into nature. When Jacob/James stated the necessity to " bridle the whole body" , he was expressing the need to domesticate man's lower animal nature to transform it into a servant and foundation for man's higher spiritual nature to manifest (see Animal Sacrifice And The Living Temple). When Jesus stated Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me. For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and that of the gospel will save it -- he was conveying the reality that the person you are in this world is a lesser three-dimensional self that is a projection of your Higher Twelve-Dimensional Soul -- and unless you are nourished by the fruit of the Tree of Life, you can never achieve the next stage of birth, and you will therefore fail to be restored to the Permanence of your Higher Soul-Self (see http://SoulSelf.org ).
Segment 11
When rightly understood, the Gospel Sermon on the Mount is a proclamation of the Natural Laws that control all realities in the life that every person is living (see Jesus The Law Professor). And the Natural Laws interact and intimately affect every aspect of your life regardless of your belief or non-belief. When rightly understood, this world can therefore be portrayed as a Living Bio-Feedback Organism that for the objective and purpose of our learning and bringing about our development, returns to each person the fruit of their own words, thoughts, desires and deeds -- not immediately as when we touch a hot plate -- but rather, in many instances this realm returns our actions back to us when a reversal of polarity has been brought about. As stated in the Bible: Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows (Gal 6:7). Not immediately -- because that would negate the process of growth and testing. If you were to hit someone, and you were immediately hit in the same measure you did to the other person, then you would simply refrain from hitting the other person. The reasons within your own mind and being that provoked you to hit the other person would not be resolved, just suppressed. But if the Laws of Creation brought about that condition which was reversed, only then would you as a victim of your own previous actions, learn the consequences of being hit. You would then learn from the experience of the victim -- and, because your Soul would possess the experiences of both, your Soul would learn and develop from the experiences of both aggressor and victim. Few understand the depth of the statement: "He who leads into captivity shall go into captivity; ...Here is the patience and the faith of the saints (Rev 13:9-10 NKJ). When the word "captivity" is understood as forcing your will upon another person, only then can the reality of this world be understood. There is not only physical captivity, but also mental captivity, philosophical, religious and cultural captivity, marital and gender captivity. Any time you force your will upon another, you will experience your own actions as a victim in your future.
Segment 12
All of which must be understood within the context of: As you do unto others, the same will be done unto you -- "So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets" (Mat 7:12) -- which is just another way of saying that your own judgments will come back upon you in your own future. And when the Law and the Wisdom of the Prophets is understood, whatever you do to others, will be returned and come back upon you. Including the judgments you make of others -- i.e., "Judge not, that you be not judged. For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you" (Matt 7:1-2 NKJ).
Segment 13
Few understand the depth of the statement: "He who leads into captivity shall go into captivity; ...Here is the patience and the faith of the saints (Rev 13:9-10 NKJ). When the word "captivity" is understood as forcing your will upon another person, only then can the reality of this world be understood.

All of which must be understood within the context of: As you do unto others, the same will be done unto you -- "So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets" (Mat 7:12) -- which is just another way of saying that your own judgments will come back upon you in your own future.

Including the judgments you make of others -- i.e., "Judge not, that you be not judged. For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you" (Matt 7:1-2 NKJ).
In the next subheading in this article on the Trinity, I will demonstrate that in the first allegorical Creation account of Genesis, male and female exist in Oneness and Wholeness -- and this is in fact our True Natural State of Being. And this is true with respect to the Mind of God where the polarities personified in Mother-God and and Father-God exist in Oneness. Our Soul and True Self is a Being of Light (see http://BeingOfLight.com ), because the Male and Female opposite polarities exist in the original pattern of Wholeness. Which provokes the question: Where, then, did the division of male and female take place? In the second Genesis Creation account the Feminine is drawn from the Male and divided, in order for the two Dynamic Polarities of Male and Female to interact and bring about mental development and spiritual growth and evolution. Without this male and female interaction on all levels of our being, we remain mentally flat-lined and spiritually inpatient. As it is stated: "And God blessed them: and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply..." (Gen 1:28) -- and what is indicated in an expansion and deepening of the Mind that only can be achieved in the dynamic interaction of the male and female paradoxical opposite spheres of mind as patterned in the Tree of Duality and the Tree of Life.

Segment 14
All frequency vibrational movement is subject to the Laws of Octaves and it's inherit twisting. And this can be seen and understood two ways -- i.e., in the white light directed through the prism at the left, we see the seven colors -- each with their respective frequency-color and frequency-sound flowing both (1) outwardly from the White Light, as well as (2) inwardly into the White Light. While we can only detect the twisting of the Octaves in the sound, the twisting of the frequencies is equally true not only in color, but the movement of all layer upon layer of Mind, Being and Creation. And often what is called the Law of Three, is merely and expression of the Divine Pattern that is replicated into every aspect of Creation -- i.e., the First Cause (Male/Positive) that is Self-Creating and often portrayed as Father-God -- the Second Cause (Female/Reflective/Negative) and is often portrayed as Mother-God -- and the Third-Force Balance that is the Offspring of the Two that is often portrayed as the Logos (Mind of God) or Son of God. And of utmost importance is to repeat the fact that this Divine Pattern is holographically replicated into all and every aspect of Self and Creation.
When rightly and intelligently understood, there is no such thing as duality -- and when duality is portrayed, this is merely an expression of ignorance of the Third-Force Balance. An interesting portrayal of duality from an on-line source: Duality teaches us that every aspect of life is created from a balanced interaction of opposite and competing forces. Yet these forces are not just opposites; they are complementary. They do not cancel out each other, they merely balance each other like the dual wings of a bird.
The Octave Test Through The Narrow Gate: When you are told to enter through the "narrow gate" -- i.e., "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it" (Matt 7:13-14) -- it is understood that there is no physical gate that can be entered through. But those who understand the blueprint and pattern of the Mind as personified in the diagram of the Tree of Life and the outer columns portrayed as the Tree of Duality (male/female), only then can we begin to understand that Wholeness requires that every impression and thought must be channeled through the "narrow gate" via the Love Sphere in the Center.
Segment 15
Holographically, all that exists in the Mind of God, is impressed into Mankind who is created in the image of God: "So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them." (Gen 1:27). But it is important to understand that what is personified as Man or Mankind, is in fact the joined condition of Man and Woman as being At-One in the Wholeness of their Manifest Being -- i.e., " Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created" (Gen 5:2 KJV). And in the Holman Christian Standard Bible: "He created them male and female, and He blessed them and named them Man in the day when they were created" . Which indicates that Adam is not a name -- it means Mankind as expressed in The New International Version: "He created them male and female and blessed them. And he named them 'Mankind' when they were created."
To say that man is created in the image of God -- that the microcosm is a pattern and image of the Macrocosm -- that as above, so it is below -- is to understand that what can be portrayed as the Divine Pattern and the Cosmology of Mind and Being, is holographically replicated into all of Creation. And this is ultra-important because it means that if you understand the Pattern, you can understand every level of Mind and Being within the Pattern. What does this mean? It means that if you understand the pattern in the physical, then you can apply the same pattern to the mental, the spiritual, and the Highest Level of Universal Consciousness. And this is why the pre-Nicene Church Father explained with respect to using the allegorical scriptures as the Key of Knowledge and understanding their inner spiritual meaning: It is sufficient however, to represent in the style of a historic narrative what is intended to convey a secret meaning in the garb of history, that those who have the capacity may work out for themselves all that relates to the subject. (Origen Contra Celsum). How can they "...work out for themselves all that relates to the subject ? Because the Divine Pattern is holographically replicated into every level of Mind and Being.
Segment 16
True Intellect and Knowing is the result of a great Diversity of perceptive-comprehension. Man's great diversity of mind that permits him to simultaneously perceive and understand from different and often paradoxically opposite perspectives, is the reality portrayed in the 90th Chapter of the Gospel of the Nazirenes where it is stated: "The One truth has many sides, and one sees one side only, another, and some see more than others, according as it is given to them. Behold this crystal; how the one light is manifest in twelve faces, yea four times twelve, and each face reflects one ray of light, and one regards one face, and another, another, but it is the one crystal, and the one light that shines in all...". The statement that "The One truth has many sides, and one sees one side only" , means that each person perceives all of life through the dominate sphere of the twelve spheres of mind that their consciousness is aligned with -- i.e., "Behold this crystal; how the one light is manifest in twelve faces" . What this means is that each of the Twelve must be singular in their perceptive-vision -- and then TOGETHER, present a Higher Vision that enables the person to see and understand the One Truth prior to the Light being divided into the "twelve faces" . Further, because the pattern is replicated into each of the spheres of mind, each of the twelve spheres would appear as portrayed in the image on the left of the twelve within each of the twelve. And from this reality of segmented consciousness, the number 144,000 that is used in the Book of Revelation is portrayed as the division of human consciousness (see The Enigma Of The Segmented Mind http://OuterDarkness.Nazirene.org#SegmentedMind ). Which means that across the spectrum of the organic consciousness of mankind, there is 144,000 segmented individual perceptions -- further divided by the male and female polarities of gender. And in the scriptures this great diversity of mind and perception is represented in the twelve tribes of Israel -- i.e., each of the twelve spheres of mind being portrayed as a tribe. Higher consciousness is allegorically presented in the Gospels, because the twelve tribes are portrayed as single-disciples. Allegorically, the crucifixion is representative of the final stage of birth where the Jew (Judas) had to be overcome and transformed.
Segment 17
Which is why the pre-Nicene Church Father Origen wrote of those who fail to understand the spiritual meaning of the crucifixion where the Church was accused of being a Secret System that taught the spiritually mature a totally different doctrine than the congregation of believers. And in reply to the allegations against the Church by the pagan philosopher Celsus, it was noted that the crucifixion and other elementary doctrines which survive today as the foundation of faith-based Christianity, was said to be ...preached in the Churches for the simpleminded and for the ears of the common crowd who are led on to live better lives by their belief (Origen Contra Celsum) .
Segment 18
Wholeness of Mind and Being requires that the 144,000 points of consciousness within the mind of man be transformed into Single Points as personified in the Twelve Disciples, and the Twelve Spheres of Mind not be defiled and controlled by an allegiance to this shadow-world as portrayed in the symbol of the Jew (Judas). In the allegory of the Gospels, the death of Judas -- i.e., the Jew -- is not the personification of a person named Judas -- but rather, the transformation of what is represented in the portrayal of consciousness in the symbol of the Jew. In the same way that a dog or swine portrays human consciousness that is incapable of receiving and comprehending the Soul's Higher Reality, so too is the Jew the symbol of a person incapable of understanding and applying the Law of God within the person's own mind, in order to bring about the deepening and expansion of mind necessary to comprehend man's higher Soul-Reality. The Jew, then, is a symbol indicating that aspect of mind (or such a person ) that looks outwardly for the Kingdom -- applying both the scriptures and the Law of God outwardly -- instead of Inwardly -- and thus, is one who throws away the Key of Knowledge. While the most important elements of the Gospels were removed by the Church, in the Gospel of the Nazirenes the crime of Jesus is preserved in the words allegation of Judas to Caiaphas: "Now Judas Iscariot had gone to the house of Caiaphas and said to him, Behold he has celebrated the Passover, within the gates, with the mazza in place of the lamb. I indeed bought a lamb, but he forbade that it should be killed, and lo, the man of whom I bought it is witness." The Jew symbolizes a person who looks outwardly to this world -- observing the Royal Law outwardly in ritual and tradition -- and as portrayed in the Nazirene Gospel, expecting the Kingdom to come outwardly (quoting): "And one that was standing by as Judas came out, saying to him, 'Do you think that they will put him to death?' And Judas said, 'No, for He will do some mighty work to deliver Himself out of their hands, even as when they of the synagogue in Capernaum rose up against Him, and brought Him to the brow of the hiss that they might throw Him down headlong, and did He not pass safely through their midst?
Segment 19
He will surely escape them now also, and proclaim Himself openly and set up the kingdom whereof He spoke.'" With the allegorical death of Judas -- death signifying transformation -- the historical man Jesus had achieved total Wholeness, Completion and Perfection -- and thus, became At-One with the Divine Mind of the Logos/Son of God (see Coverture-Marriage - Was Jesus God? http://BrotherOfJesus.org#CovertureMarriage ).
Segment 20
Those who walked and talked with the historical man Jesus daily, understood that Jesus became the Anointed (Messiah/Christ) and prevailed over the Law. Thus, the original Gospel Teaching is preserved by the early Church writer Hippolytus when he stated that it was the position of the Ebionite followers of Jesus that he "was justified by fulfilling the Law. He was the Christ of God, since not one of the rest of mankind had observed the Law completely. Had any one else fulfilled the commandments of the Law, he would have been the Christ." And in speaking of this original Ebionite Nazirene position, he writes that when each disciple "...thus fulfills the law, they are able to become Christs, for they assert that our Lord Himself was a man in like sense with all humanity." (Hippolytus, Refut. Omn. Haer. vii. 34 SEE Jesus Fulfilled The Law http://OriginalGospel.Ebionite.com#JesusFulfilledTheLaw ).
Not only religion, but also modern science has confirmed the validity of the words of Peter in the warning in the Epistle of Peter to James that if the esoteric teachings of Jesus were to be lost or corrupted, that the paradoxical enigmatic knowledge could not be understood, when Peter wrote that "...it will remain even for those who really seek the truth, always to wander in error"!!! What is Peter making reference to? The Natural Laws that monitor and test the thoughts of the individual person that in the case of organic man, inhibit the expansion of mind beyond the carnal intellectual understanding.
