[continued]

If you deny or distort the Spirit, however,** it will in the end and to that extent destroy you:*** although this point is made from experience and observation, it does tie in with Jesus’ comment on the unforgiveability of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.**** Hence the quality of Christ is essential in both knowing God (the Father-Creator) and experiencing the Spirit.

By distortion of the Spirit, I mean the attempt to channel it to one’s own will instead of the will of the Father-Creator: which, again, can only be known through the Quality of Christ.

Another way of putting it is to say that of all the Archetypes of the Circle, only one – Christ – leads by integration to Unity and thus Union with God the Father Creator and the Spirit; anything that does not tend towards God goes down to destruction in Separation; and the Spirit, being the ultimate potential and therefore (when it lights upon an Individual) the ultimate dynamic force, brings about or accelerates movement whether away from or towards God. Note that for the Individual at rest the Spirit seems to move; but for the Individual in motion towards it the spirit seems to be at rest.#

For the Individual moving away from it, the position is not so clear: the Spirit may well seem to drive him away.

‘Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men. And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.’

Matthew 12:31-32 (Authorised (King James) Version)
