Inheritance, posterity, history, tradition, unalienable rights, sovereignty, representation (representative government), limited government, local control, culture, heritage, absolutes (established commands, rules, facts, and truth), private convictions, private property, and private business, "limits and measures," being wrong, humbling, denying, dying to, disciplining, controlling of "self," contrition, repentance, forgiveness, salvation, conversion—redemption and reconciliation—(for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning), fellowship, etc., eternal life. They are all missing (negated) in and through the use of dialogue in deciding right and wrong behavior and in setting policy in the 'moment.' You can not see it because your "self," i.e., your "lusting" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world, i.e., the current situation and/or people are stimulating stands in the way, i.e., blinds you to it. Carl Rogers explained it all. © Institution for Authority Research, Dean Gotcher 2020 |
