Non Abbiamo Bisogno

“We Do Not Need”
 

 

 

Blessed Art Thou Travels, 1621

 

 

We, the One True and Holy Church of GOD, do not need; For ours is the wealth of spirit (Owyn, 2:3). There is naught an equivalent upon His creation, so we must take up these abundant riches with devotion and diligence (Owyn, 2:2). Search not for truth in stockpiled luxuries, considerable estates, silken robes, or bejeweled croziers, for all fall short of the glory of GOD (Owyn, 2:4). We are all birthed and we all shall perish in time, as does the coinage of men gust and fall, akin to the wind’s very nature. But, accompanying His blessed glory are the Seven Skies, and this divine place for His devout community of worshipers has no end and is eternal (Horen, 1:3).

 

“For I have ordained for thee a destination of virtue, and I have set within thy path the key to the gate of the Seven Skies. And thou shalt take only the path of virtue and shalt not stray into clearer paths, for though they be clearer they lead to impure ends.” (Owyn, 1:3)

 

Within His words GOD tells of the Seven Skies and their obtainability for all who practice and uphold the virtues of His Church and Holy Word. In these words, with His power as GOD, He condemns the comforts of the world presented by Iblees: wine, wealth, women, and more (Owyn, 3:3-4). He implores us all to uptake a simple and pure life, one of fasting and prayer. One where looking to the Skies is a cry of recognition from the Heavenly Father but also one of love; One where we embrace both the trials He bestows upon our life-long journey and the joy He brings to us, death and birth respectively.

 

In our righteous pursuit to live a simple life glorifying Him and seeking atonement we must forsake certain possessions and comforts, while adopting virtuous practices in their stead: First, we must seek to give what we have to those in need, for whatever ye have or hold, He has given you (Owyn, 2:3). Do not count the cost of selling thine wares or sustenance to the downtrodden; give openly with a kind and gentle hand. Love for thy brother and sister should manifest in deeds and words, but deeds paramount.

 

Seek next to deny carnal desires, as they tempt thine flesh. Extricate yourself from the taverns and bawdy prose of the troubadours that adorn their halls. Forbear and abstain from the fermented vintages that sour and muddy the intellect (Sigesmund, 1:5). For it was Iblees who first delivered such temptations to the tribe of Horen and it has fallen to us, brothers and sister, to vehemently rebuke the dens of worldly vanities, and sin itself (Horen, 2:7). For as the Scrolls read, “the blessings of heaven shall fall before the righteous who do not indulge” (Owyn, 3:5).

 

He who goes about to reform the world must begin with himself, or he loses his labor in the process. Foundational faith in GOD is essential and with this, and the denial of earthly offenses, one must keep their soul in peace and harmony with Him (Owyn, 1:2), confessing upon sins regularly and avoiding them elsewise. Let thy soul be worked upon by GOD, Our Lord, in the ways He sees fit and act as if everything depended on you; trust as if everything depended on GOD.

 

By living a simple life one can achieve the fundamental human want to live for something more than just ourselves. The very concept of the awe-inspiring being of GOD often dumbfounds the non-believers, some who know nothing of His power and grace. GOD may call you to seek out these brothers and sisters and preach the Holy Truth to them, guiding them by the hand, and such is only just by those who disavow the same earthly pleasures they preach against and reaffirm the Holy Word in their actions.

 

 

The Church does not need, but His children do.
