“Martin Luther described the doctrine of justification by faith as the article of faith that decides whether the church is standing or falling. By this he meant that when this doctrine is understood, believed, and preached, as it was in New-Testament times, the church stands in the grace of God and is alive; but where it is neglected, overlaid, or denied, ... the church falls from grace and its life drains away, leaving it in a state of darkness and death.” StatesFallChurchChristianityDarknessGraceAliveUnderstoodStandingLeavingDoctrineArticlesDeniedJustificationTestamentLutherGrace Of GodNeglectedNew TestamentDrainsJustification By FaithFalls From Grace Author:J.

“One of the great mysteries of our current state of consciousness is how we can live in a world where absolutely nothing is fixed, and yet perceive a world of 'fixedness.' But once we start to see reality more as it is, we realize that nothing is permanent, so how could the future be fixed? How could we live in anything but a world of continual possibility? The realization allows us to feel more alive.” WorldFeelsStatesRealityMotivationalRealizingConsciousnessAliveMysteryPossibilityCurrentsRealizationPermanentPerceiveFixedAbsolutely NothingStates Of Consciousness Book:Synchronicity: The Inner Path of Leadership Source: Synchronicity: The Inner Path of Leadership

“We are humanity, Kant says. Humanity needs us because we are it. Kant believes in duty and considers remaining alive a primary human duty. For him one is not permitted to “renounce his personality,” and while he states living as a duty, it also conveys a kind of freedom: we are not burdened with the obligation of judging whether our personality is worth maintaining, whether our life is worth living. Because living it is a duty, we are performing a good moral act just by persevering.” NeedsBelieveHumansKindStatesLife IsHumanityMoralOur LivesAliveJudgingDutyPersonalityObligationPrimariesPerformingMaintainingWorth LivingRenounceLife Is Worth LivingGood Moral Author:Jennifer Michael Hecht
“The drive to be useful is encoded in our genes. But when we gather in very large numbers, as in the modern nation-state, we seem capable of levels of folly and self-destruction to be found nowhere else in all of nature.

We can build structures for human society never seen before, thoughts never heard before, music never heard before.” IfsHumansSelfStatesSeemsFoundNationsLevelsNumbersAliveHeardModernCapableDestructionStructureSurprisePersistenceFollyGenesLarge NumbersHuman SocietySelf Destruction Author:Lewis Thomas
