If there is no calmness, within, where is the control, throughout?
Therefore, seeking to control outside of self whilst lacking self-control is to be out of control.
If there is no responsibility for one’s own actions, where is the control and determination of self?
Placing the blame on others in cowardice, giving up ownership of one’s own actions and control, forever defects redemption.
Without redemption, there is no peace, no love, no grace, and no salvation.

“To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And by opposing end them.”*
Whether ‘tis best in life to be loved or feared
To gain in gratitude and goodwill
Or lose in wants and desires.
To be strengthened by honor and duty
Or weakened by tricks from adversaries exploitive and divisive in harm.
Whether ‘tis wiser to follow the holy or ruthlessly destroy with the unholy.
To be, or not to be, that is the question.
*William Shakespeare, Hamlet.
What is seen when you see through the eyes of jealousy, fear, hate, lust, and other sins?
How clear would your mind be under those unholy conditions?
How rational?
What kind of actions would you then take if all you see are tinted, strained, and distorted in jealousy, fear, hate, lust, and other sins?
What is seen in future predictions when all that is seen is with negative sight?
What is absolute power?
But a grandiose delusion of total control in ignorance and sins.*
Can sins be controlled?
Ask an alcoholic if alcohol can be controlled or should be abstained.
Can grace be controlled?
Look upon the waves of the ocean and if you think you can have total control over the tides, then you have serious delusional issues of grandeur.
In the end, does Satan have final say in Judgment?
Since the Judgement is the Lord's, then everything and everyone belongs within the spiritual laws with the Holy Spirit.
Therefore, absolute power belongs to the Lord absolutely.
Nothing comes before or after the Lord.
And if you destroy your soul, your mind, and heart in sin, then the power to control your destiny in salvation is lost to the Agonies of damnation; and predetermination becomes predemonization.
You are to realize and receive what is holy and exorcise and abstain from what is unholy.
Redemption is possible for the sinner only after the confession of sin, repentance of sin, and atonement from sin.
Salvation is possible only by the determination of the Lord in the receiving of the Holy Spirit.
*Therefore, as mere mortals should we strive for absolute power?
*Note: The real power to heal, have wisdom, enlightenment, and receive salvation is with the Lord and Holy Spirit.
The more ruthless, the more heartless, the more ignorant.
Why?
Because there is no connection to the Holy Spirit; therefore, there is no wisdom or enlightenment.
Terror is not brilliance.
Fear is not bravery.
Abuse is not inspiration.
Hate is not love.
Walking a path of ruthless ignorance devoid of the way, the truth, and the life, will never lead anywhere meaningful.
Why?
Because the path of fear and hate in sins will never lead to the Light of Salvation.
