God is; Life is. We are permitted no further judgment. God is. It is a matter of training oneself to form no opinion whatsoever. It is so easy and satisfying to one's ego to be a good judge of human nature, to be able humanly to evaluate those whom we meet, and of course humanly we may be right; but looking out at the world and judging mankind, putting labels on people, and abiding by those human opinions and decisions will only lead to trouble. There is but one way to come out from among them and be separate, and that is in our agreement that God made all that was made, and all that God made is good; in our agreement that God, Spirit, is the life, the Soul, and the mind of individual being. How can we possibly accept a teaching which reveals God as the Life of all being, as the creative Principle of all being, and then designate some good and some bad?
There can be no spiritual demonstration while we hold to human opinions of good and evil.
~ Joel S. Goldsmith. Living The Infinite Way
