Falsa Mali Natura in Carna


Falsa Mali Natura in Carna
Since before the days of my bodily life there have been notions lasting long through the centuries, even into your current age of flesh bearing an inherently evil nature. It is a false notion but the falsehood is not apparent whilst still living in the flesh. For during the time the time of our bodily life, the temptations of evil wrongfully appear to be born of the the flesh. The adulterous lust we may carry for the wife of another man seems satisfied through an encounter of the flesh so it appears that the sin of adultery is of fleshy origins. But in truth this sin is born of a lost and loveless spirit, in need of connection to another. The sin of adultery is acted out through the flesh but originates within the spirit. Likewise, the sin of greed appears satisfied by the excessive accumulation of wealth at the expense of others. But this sin also is born of a spirit which believes it’s own need to be greater than others. This sin also is visible through the flesh but born of the spirit, as with all sins which hinder our journey back to our God.
Flesh has no inherent evil for the first incident of evil was of thought and spirit, manifest as pride in thinking to make oneself as great as our God and Creator. This spirit was cast out from the presence of God, eventually coming to join itself to the spirits of men, thereby making our own spirit inherently corrupt.. For the first sin of men was also the same sin of this spirit, thinking to make themselves as great as God himself. So also were the first of our species cast out from the presence of God, as done to the spirit which first tempted them with it’s own evil pride. In the days since that age our species has degenerated into countless forms of evil but all were born of the first evil which was a sin of spirit. As creatures who yet live in the flesh however, you cannot see the spirit of others as you see their outward behavior. It becomes natural to believe that the flesh which you see carrying out the evil is itself evil. The flesh is merely weak though, driven by the greater power of the spirit within.
There are needs of the flesh which seem to drive the spirit of man to evil acts. For a man who is hungry may steal the food of another. A man in constant poverty may murder to steal the wealth of one who is rich. But even evils as these which appear bound to the flesh are of spirit. For it was the greed of spirit which first caused men to needlessly hoard the bounty of the earth which the flesh is so needful of. And through the ages the hoarding and excessive accumulation of the earth’s produce became normal to all societies of men. For even now, in your modern age with populations to great to number the produce of the earth is great enough for all men, but for the needless hoarding of wealth, food and material needs of the flesh.
My name is Artorias and as one who now lives as Spirit in the host of the heavens it is my prayer that these words may aid you who still live in the flesh. For the Spirit within you is given by God but was corrupted, and thence came to corrupt your living flesh. Do not seek to amend the evils of your societies by material means which appeal to the flesh for neither the flesh nor its many needs are the problem. The evils which hold back men are of your own corrupted spirit, a spirit waiting to be refreshed and renewed by the greater, all powerful Spirit of the Living God.
