1 John 4:4 You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He that is in you [our Spirit Thought Adjuster] is greater than he who is in the worldIt was during this same sermon that Jesus made use of his first and only parable having to do with his own trade — carpentry. In the course of his admonition to “Build well the foundations for the growth of a noble character of spiritual endowments,” he said: “In order to yield the fruits of the spirit [our Thought Adjuster], you must be born of the spirit [personality awareness transferred to our Soul]. You must be taught by the spirit [our TA] and be led by the spirit [our TA] if you would live the spirit-filled life among your fellows. But do not make the mistake [with our ego-centric animal mind] of the foolish carpenter who wastes valuable time squaring, measuring, and smoothing his worm-eaten and inwardly rotting timber and then, when he has thus bestowed all of his labor upon the unsound beam, must reject it as unfit [selfishness] to enter into the foundations of the building which he would construct to withstand the assaults of time and storm. Let every man make sure that the intellectual [our human & animal minds] and moral foundations of character are such as will adequately support the superstructure of the enlarging and ennobling spiritual nature [Soul growth], which is thus to transform the mortal mind [our human mind] and then, in association with that re-created mind, is to achieve the evolvement of the soul of immortal destiny. Your spirit nature — the jointly created soul [our personality Willco-operating withour TA using our human mind togrow our Soul]— is a living growth, but the mind [our animal & human minds] and morals of the individual are the soil from which these higher manifestations of human development and divine destiny must spring. The soil of the evolving soul is human [our human mind] and material [our ego-centric animal mind], but the destiny [after Adjuster fusion] of this combined creature of mind and spirit [our enlightened soul implanted with our personality “combined” with our TA] is spiritual and divine.”156:5.2
