The Character of Man (2) (24.9.12)

“The character of man is dependent on the captaincy foregone by the soul:

                                     rises with the influence of the spirit;

                                     falls with the dominion of the soul.

The character of man rises and falls with the waxing and the waning of the spirit within mortality.

The character of man is reserved unto his spirit for accompanying man into eternity.

The character of man builds upon the captaincy of the spirit thereby to converse with God,

                                                                                thereby to bring counsel to the soul,

                                                                                thereby to bring cognizance to the body soul and spirit.

The character of man has datum lines drawn in circumscription,

                                   knows of the data of intelligence,

                                   knows of the data for existence,

                                   knows of the data ready for translation,

                                   knows of the data ready for transition,

                                   knows of the data of description,

                                   knows of the data of the self,

                                   knows of the data of composition,

                                   knows of the data for eternity built upon the acquisitions in mortality.

The character of man preserves the expressions of existence for a life spent in the time of preparation,

                                   has all the links established and readied for restoring,

                                   has all the overtones examined and deployed,

                                   has all the innovations discovered and enjoyed.

The character of man leaves nothing out of order,

                                   leaves nothing seen to be amiss,

                                   leaves nothing leading to misunderstandings,

                                   leaves nothing forming misconceptions.

The character of man is an extension to the spirit:

                                             in containing the specific traits peculiar to a life.

The character of man is honoured or respected,

                                   is selected or rejected,

                                   is righteous or depraved.

The character of man is dominant or subservient,

                                   is brave or cowardly,

                                   is concerned or distant.

The character of man presents and withdraws,

                                   magnifies and minimizes,

                                   shepherds and obstructs.

The character of man can be in tune with God,

                                   can be in tune with man,

                                   can be in tune with Satan.

The character of man is subject to assessment,

                                   is subject to degrees of influence,

                                   is subject to established goals.

The character of man has mixtures of complexity,

                                   has mixtures of simplicity.

The character of man can be admired or despised by God,

                                   can be greeted or disowned by God,

                                   can be accompanying the spirit or be lost without the soul.

The character of man outflows from the achievements of the spirit of man.”
