The body that is asked to be a god will be attacked, because its nothingness has not been recognized.

As something, it can be perceived and thought to feel and act, and hold you in its grasp as prisoner to itself.

And it can fail to be what you demanded that it be. And you will hate it for its littleness, unmindful that the failure does not lie in that it is not more than it should be, but only in your failure to perceive that it is nothing.

Yet its nothingness is your salvation, from which you would flee.

As “something” is the body asked to be God’s enemy, replacing what He is with littleness and limit and despair.

It is His loss you celebrate when you behold the body as a thing you love, or look upon it as a thing you hate.

For if He be the sum of everything, then what is not in Him does not exist, and His completion is its nothingness.

Your Savior is not dead, nor does he dwell in what was built as temple unto death.

He lives in God, and it is this that makes him Savior unto you, and only this.

His body’s nothingness releases yours from sickness and from death. For what is yours cannot be more nor less than what is his.
