[b]I now believe my ego is sin. My ego allowed me to live in a false illusionary reality. I now understand why? I created it by my negativity which it lives on.Their are many questions I would like to ask tho? Satan was the first sinner and brought sin to the earth? Therefore we are born in sin but not of sin until we acknowledge sin? My mind is spiritual? God created with words can I as well give my words life and meaning? pljames
welcome to ILP…
We are born innocent and aren’t capable of sin or evil until we become self-aware. I think your title of the thread is close. But ego is not sin. We do good to feed our ego as well as bad. What’s the difference? Evil is giving more worth to you own rights than the rights of others. When you murder, enslave or steal from someone, you deem them and their rights to be less than your own. That is evil. That is the only evil or sin.
Power and money are not the root of all evil, vanity is. In fact, vanity is not the Devil’s favorite sin, vanity is the ONLY sin. In fact, I ask you to name a sin that is not the result of imbalanced vanity or unequal value to one’s rights over others.
If ego is a sin then I’m definately going to hell…
Hell? Too late, already there…
