The core of Christ Jesus' teachings was the fact that God is Love and that one who lives as God's child loves unselfishly —as well as eternally.
It is this core that mortals glimpse, find inspiring, and promptly find ways to evade. And the evasion robs mortals of the ability to heal. This evasion is so subtle that it appears to be a higher form of good, whereas it is only a counterfeit—something like the false Christs and false prophets Christ Jesus spoke of as showing "great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect." Matt. 24:24;
But these false Christs and false prophets are not people; they are types of thinking wherein people busy themselves with words or deeds other than those that love and heal. Words that speak of the truths of God and man but show nothing of the self immolation that truly expresses divine Love. Deeds that occupy one in the study of mankind's problems while proposed solutions only demand more studies. These deeds may seem to do what the words fail to do, but they are both evasions of the love that heals.
