My self alone, my self apart from God, has always lived a selfish life.

That is what selves do. Dogs bark, Cats meow and selves live selfish lives.

Religion’s answer to the self-life, is to exhort it to try harder to reach the heights of the Spirit.

Religion points men to themselves and that is why religion doesn’t work, for your self can never be your hope, for your self is your problem.

As a self, you can never be good as God is good, for God is not a self.

He doesn’t have a self-life.

He has never been alone.

Right from the beginning, life to God has always been communion.

God did not say, “I am going to make man in my image.”

He said, “Come let us make man in our image.”

Through the body of Christ, God has reconciled the selfish world to Himself, so that all who will accept God’s way of life, Christ (God’s Way, God’s Truth, God’s Life), no longer have to live alone, but can begin to live from and live in communion with God.
