Chapter Fifty Four: Could It Be True?

One sure thing about the certainty of God's generous mercy is that everybody is invited to accept it, regardless of their situation or the many faulty conditions surrounding the processes that defines the capable pretense of the rational soul. It is unconditional, holy, and a direct result of divine grace, fittingly given upon itself, that everybody is entitled to receive it, despite the odds and the many restrictions of the mind to even understand and neither comprehend such free gift of love and limitless compassion. Even the most ruthless killer out there can be changed by the miracle of reason of mercy if he will only heed the call of the fullness of this unseen divine calling, cooperate with its healing process, and recognize the truth that only the grace of salvation can freely give.

To be enclosed within an overflowing and generous mercy may seem too complicated to be defined within its own sphere, because when the rational soul is situated inside a body that is limited in its purview, and to be subjected in its limited capacity as the sole standard of the competence of man, one may think quite convincingly that the presence of his strong beliefs actually limits the full potential of his own profound dignity, by allowing the limited portion of the population to advance in oneself's invested social status, while the others (especially the poor) are left with nothing but scraps, working in a concealed slavery system of materialism and commercialism.

The systematic slavery is living inside the mind of those whose thinking were trained to defy the limits of many metaphysical substances. To desire more things, to envy, to drag other people down from the fruits of their own hand, that is the name of the cruel master.

But to do anything within the prescribed norms and the system of economic activity that the world has found itself to settle with, especially by natural selection, any type of participation in the allocation of the scarce resources are to be considered a form of "labor" upon its own merit and definition, and that such involvement in rewarding activities are the labor of one's hands, fittingly and obviously, albeit only to be categorized in a distinct form of classification. Simply speaking, both the capitalist and the laborers offer their own contributions to the enterprise.

The world ultimately belongs to the higher being who created it, and every rational soul is participating in its usefulness and beauty as mere stewards.

In fact, the profitable activities in the world are open invitation to participate in commerce responsibly, it teaches a conscious choice of involvement, in the same manner that God's generosity extends to everyone, and for the soul to respond accordingly, and to cooperate in its transformative power. The materials of the earth does not exist to cultivate on its own, and the world is a large corporation of divine trust that requires everyone to eventually seek its own merit and cooperate in the entrusted responsibility, and to profit from taking part in that same process of creation as a systematic mode of divine motivation, as part of God's ultimate design for life.

After hearing the notable circumstances, could it be that this cold-blooded murderer was being called to respond to the generosity of love and mercy? Can a cold, evil heart simply feel the gentle whisper of the calling of God? Can it hear the decibels in a "celestial" manner?

There was limited information so far with respect to the internal struggles present in the mind of this killer, as the crimes were desperately (and gruesomely) described by the careful words of this fictional account, and nobody could ever join to act and simply judge someone's own selfish demeanor based solely on a limited information available to us at this present moment.

But, of course, it is not within the impossible realm that, one day, God's grace would reach someone's limited cognizance that he involuntarily acquired through a mechanism of flawed learning (even by indoctrination, known in logic as the poisoning of the well), despite their best efforts to stay away from the mercy of the divine, by deliberately doing something truly evil in the standards of the law of man and the pre-defined elements of what constitutes humanly justice, as opposed to the fullest efficacy of divine justice that does not happen accidentally to someone worthy to receive it.

In God's generosity, he seeks everyone with care, not by the merits of their own personal doing, but by the circumstances in which they arrive at their situated premises. The cathedra of wisdom, in itself, can never satisfy the curiosity of human perception, and they cannot save themselves from their limited knowledge of what constitutes God's messianic mission. It is more than just that, and it could be that something supernatural is happening inside this killer, trying to reform him, save him, tame the chaos inside his person.

Whatever he did in the past, he must have done something good to merit a strong connection to the divine. It could be that he is in the middle of the system of availing of himself the immense power of the most superior verb in the universe.

He is being called to love.
