A note

Don't believe anything I say about myself. I'm married. To a doctor. He travels, mostly. Has affairs. I stay here and have affairs with various men, older men usually, in our world. I'm blessed with low-maintenance looks. [Don't pay any attention to all that.] It may be coming to an end. But one thinks that always. Interestingly, I've found you can't connect with others for real Work in a sensual, physical way. By that I mean directly. There has to be some mediational medium. Either your own effort (regarding connecting with what is above), or media like the internet (regarding other people), or, again, regarding people more in your physical world, more of a 'by example', non-direct mediation, even for people in your physical world but not in your time. This is just what I've experienced. Anything else is artificial. The connection with above is foundational to the other. (I don't admit to having any affairs; anyway, who cares. Bags of liquid.)

As for Christianity... One big, blatant fact is this: once you have saving faith (once you've been regenerated and you have converted in a real way) you are then still really in the same place you were before, only your efforts now have a real goal and real effectiveness. So, Work effort is as real after conversion as it seemed, and in a different way was, before.

Once you learn pure biblical doctrine, and you get a real sense of the sociology, so to speak, of mainstream Christians, you will see that they are weak where you are strong (strong in knowing a language like the Work). They understand real development happens from above and by having the Spirit in you, but they are weak on facing the fact that effort too is required. And they are weak there really because they don't know what to - practically - do. This is why mainstream Christianity is about formalism and moralism and ritualism and clericalism. And family. If you actually read the Bible and learn the pure doctrine you will see all this. And if you have the Work for practical instruction you have a great gift.
