Finding its roots at the moment one becomes saved, Life continues itself as a war waged between two entities, caring not of external attributes, material, or causes, but of the existential, inward truth. These two entities consist of two simple, yet very powerful, letters: "I" and "i". Where man places himself determines the most grand influences in his life: his religious and philosophical views.
It has been expressed that every question that hopes to find some truth surrounds two beings: "I" and "God". If you understand one, you understand the other, and all questions and answers simply fall into place. The priority within this essay resides in redefining "I", as to make humanity more successful in their walk with Christ, and as with all other essays, finding some existential truth unlike any other.
To begin such an elaborate, complicated, and sometimes confusing subject, let us save some time in shallow disagreements, and define some words that are relevant to the subject.
"I": The individual man that is reliant upon his self-awareness, his understanding of his "self".
"Self": The attributes of the individual man, IE Emotions,Desires, Needs, etc.
"God": The Triune God revealed to humanity in His three methods: Nature, Scripture, and Divine Revelation
"i": The individual man that is self-aware, understanding, but not reliant upon, his "self.
"Pride": The bridge of reliance between "I" and "Self."
"Human Nature": The consistent habits believed by humanity to be common and good.
"Godly Nature": The actual nature preserved by God for man that has been perverted and recreated as "Human Nature."
Now, upon reviewing this subject, man must ask his self, "What practical purpose will it serve me to understand or spend time on this essay?"
To help give you further reason to continue reading, and upon finishing the essay, to work on your "I", presented in the following is the value that should ascertain the reader to work on oneself:
VALUE 1
Humility: Upon reviewing your"self" and "I", you will gain a better understanding of your place in contrast with God's, and will have no doubt about the awe-striking admiration we must have in reverencing God.
Def. of Humility: The awareness of ones rank, importance, etc.
To gain a better understanding of ones self, we must began with the "I".
Upon all our experience, and all of the truth we've come to learn about what is apart from us can be recognized as simply "Common, Consistent Human Experience (CCHE)." Dirt is always expected to be brown, tree's leaves in the summer to be green, a bird to be singing in the spring, and for water to feel cold on a sun-blazing day. But we know that these things can be changed. Turning on the hose of a house and expecting cold water can be a chilling experience once our mouths hit the heat-infested liquid. Though "CCHE" is necessary and vital for humanity to build the external, scientific world, this method cannot be used to actualize the inner world; To find truth beyond mankind, we must look beyond our own experience.CCHE, if used to find existential truth, only dulls our awareness.
Continual Patterns only show us what we can work with, what will work, and what won't. A circle cannot fit into a sqare, unless the square is rather larger than the circle. Upon CCHE, we build ourselves equations, formulas, and reason. This, in one word, is Logic. A = B, and B = C, so A must also = C. This doesn't tell us any type of truth beyond our external world, but can ONLY tell us truth of the external world.
