      Appendix: FAQ Outline

      1. How can heart-felt false beliefs and false doctrines be overcome?

      Yes, with a lot of difficulty, Clare. The problem with a heart-felt belief is that it's usually supported by a foundation of emotions that are all based around unloving belief systems and lies, generally. I'm not saying that all heart-felt beliefs are like that, I'm just saying the ones we need to give up are like that.

      The problem with heart-felt beliefs, because they have all this emotion behind them, is that it is very, very hard for a person to actually give them up, and there are really only a few things that can set us free from heart-felt beliefs that we feel are true inside of our heart but are actually not a part of God's Truth. This involves two primary aspects of our development towards God.

      The two primary aspects are humility and truth, a love of truth. Now, if we are truly humble we are willing to experience every emotion we have without acting upon the emotion that we feel. What I mean by that is that we need to start contemplating this fact about humility: that while we have emotional resistance inside of our heart to something being presented to us, it is telling us a truth that we are not as certain about our belief systems as we believe ourselves to be.

      For example, if you told me, AJ, you're definitely not Jesus; I know you're not Jesus, I'd say, No worries, Clare. You're able to have your own opinion. I wouldn't feel angry with you; I wouldn't feel upset with you; I wouldn't feel like attacking your character; I wouldn't feel like attacking your nature; I wouldn't feel like attacking your personality, your clothing or any other thing about you. If I did feel any of those emotions it would mean that perhaps inside of myself there is also an uncertainty of my own acceptance of myself.

      It is my own uncertainty and my desire to suppress it that would cause me to react negatively to your accusation, whether it's delivered in love or unkindly. This is something we need to understand, that whenever we revert to sort-of like a defence of our belief systems, revert to anger and other types of emotions as a defence, and revert to attack of the individual themselves who is questioning us, we are actually demonstrating that our belief systems are not as firmly in our soul as we would like them to be; perhaps they're not as heart-felt as we would really like them to be.

      What I find a lot of people doing with regard to their belief systems is that they feel the confrontation of the truth with their belief system. So the truth is stating one thing; at this point in time they don't even believe it's the truth, it's just an idea, a knowledge, that is different to the knowledge they have. When there is this confrontation between this and the knowledge that a person has, the actions of truth will determine which one of these things is true.

      Now let me talk about the actions of truth. The actions of truth are that it would never give itself up for the sake of a compromise with another. In other words, if you tell me that I am not Jesus and I know for certain that I am, I will not give up my feelings of certainty for your belief. However, I will also not attack your beliefs; I will accept that you are allowed to have your belief that I am not Jesus.

      I would do that automatically if I was in a condition of love, and if my belief had any certainty I would also do that. If I start attacking you for your concept then that would demonstrate that I am trying to defend something, and if I'm trying to defend something rather than just expose something, now I'm in a condition where I am probably in error. If we understood this when we're in discussion about any theological subject, we would start to feel the defensiveness rise within ourselves and realise that in that moment we are not being humble, because humility would allow us to listen to the discussion, particularly if the other person is delivering it in a kind manner; you would listen to the discussion. If they aren't kind, then you would say, Hey, you're not being kind and I don't have to put up with this, and perhaps leave. But if they are being kind, they are just raising a subject with you and they aren't being condescending or ridiculing in the process, then there is no need to talk to them about their emotion about it; there's just a need for us to experience our own emotion. If we're feeling attacked, even though the person's being kind, then obviously there's a deeper emotion within us that is demonstrating some kind of untruth or some kind of thing where we're not being loving.

      This is the first quality. The first quality we need is humility, the ability to absorb another person's different opinion without reacting in anger and resentment towards
