#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#mianmian#nie mingjue#jin guangyao#JGY is nothing but outwardly calm and carrying on his duties as the chair for the meeting#but in that small pause after Nie Mingjue commemorates Mianmian for leaving...you can feel the tension.#Because Nie Mingjue comes from a place of privilege. He's always been in a position where his legitimacy and political standing-#-were never challenged. He didn't have to fight for respect. He was born into this world respected.#For people like Mianmian and JGY who clawed their way up from the bottom...this is a huge deal.#Truth be told I have a lot of things to say about what it means and feels to be in a position where leaving is messy.#There are times where the situation is bad but to leave means that those years of your life will have been for nothing.#That all the other suffering incurred will be fruitless. So you just *keep going*. Because it *has* to be worth it.#Because going back to what you were before is even more terrifying than the hell you are boiling in.#My concrete example for this is post-grad academia.#Because that cohort will have spent over a decade pursuing a goal and leaving means...well...it means throwing away those years.#It means losing (likely nearly all) your connections. It means going into debt you'll never pay off.#It means putting up with some pretty heinous abuse from your supervisor because what are you suppose to do? Leave?#Leaving is for those with the privilege to have options.#And even if you do have options...#Ultimately we would rather love the pain we know than risk the unknown. Hoping it's worth it one day.#With that mindset established; never say JGY should have just left like Mianmian. He couldn't. This was what he dedicated his life to.#He never had the option. Even if it seemed like he did - no he did not. He never conceived this ending ever happening for himself.

IV Reality
The Most High, the Most High God, be pleased with thee.
May your reality do right by you. May you know that what has happened to you is real. May you see the creator of the Gods as your creator also. But may love be with you and my God’s notice be upon you.
He that made the Gods knows that when there were Gods God was the one that outlasted the others beyond the end of their mutual destruction. Therefore before there was anything or any one there was my God, the real God. Before God created the earth and all the world God has created was he not? No he was not. God has been when there were only Gods, then he created this reality to replace the reality that was before because all other Gods had been destroyed, but not by him for he has never destroyed anyone. It is not good to destroy any one. It is not right to destroy any one. It is not just to destroy any one. It does not show good judgment to destroy any one. There is no mercy in destroying any one. There is no kindness in destroying any one. It is not even fair to destroy any one.
Even he that has the power to destroy any one will not destroy you, though he knows you are there just as he knows all things he will not do it, though he is everywhere and therefore there is no place he is not that you may hide from him he will not destroy you for he is not if he is not good and he is good in all things and all places and all real or true contexts there may ever be. Rest assured then. You will not be destroyed by God, the God who made the Gods and anyone that destroys any one is not good and therefore not a God and not of God.
Shall a good God also do wrong? No one who is good does wrong. Is it good then to forgive someone for doing wrong? Should they desire to good and ask to be forgiven so that they may change their minds and do good thereafter, how can that be wrong? Even if they ask to be forgiven but do not plan on doing good thereafter it is good to forgive them that anything resembling being unforgiving never be found in you. Even if they kill you forgive them. Even if they destroy you if you are resurrected forgive them lest you become like them. If it is in your power to forgive then forgive but if it is not something they do to you it is not in your power to forgive them, even if they destroy themselves to get even with you. That is irrational. One cannot forgive insanity. Insanity is something one does not do to anyone else but themselves. It is to destroy oneself. It is the one that does it and their act against themselves. It has nothing to do with you. It cannot be forgiven.
Forgiveness is an act of love. It is not love to forgive anyone misfortune they bring upon themselves of any kind even what they bring upon themselves for something unloving they do to you. That is not forgiveness but it is love to forgive them that more misfortune might not come upon them. Not to forgive them is to defy God by beating on one that has already beaten on themselves. Anything you do to them, especially not forgiving them which causes more than has already happened to them to occur is to your charge and not theirs. It is a sin.
Now a sin against anyone is an irrational act, a form of insanity. It is the same as had they chosen to die like Adam or at least to die to you like your murderer should someone murder you or destroy you. But of course should they merely murder or destroy you, you may not always be dead to them even if you are not resurrected and remain dead and they sometime later die.
However should they destroy you and God does not resurrect you, you will remain dead to everyone even the one that destroyed you and you will not be avenged except at the judgment when your resurrection from destruction convicts them of being worthy of torment and to the extent you are more righteous you will be avenged until something you did that convicts you in the same way is brought up then they will be avenged. Therefore never sin against a righteous man or you will not even have that to fall back on to keep you from eternal torment. It is therefore irrational to sin but it is insane to sin against the righteous especially God who is always good and always righteous; no one can bring any charge against God.
Not all matters are simple. Not all matters can be judged at the moment. Even God may have to wait upon the decisions of others to declare who is righteous and unrighteous but God may know the righteousness of the one and the unrighteousness of the other by knowing the consequences of what was done, if not to the one that has treated you with unrighteousness then what the consequences are against God whom we are all accountable to because he is wronged by all unrighteousness against him and he is never unrighteous toward us.
For example it was unrighteous what Woman did in Paradise for she disobeyed God which was irrational though she was tricked into that irrational behavior. But Man did more than disobey God he became the father of sin causing the death of every man to come after him. His unrighteousness was not irrational but insane. The serpent caused the woman to sin by design due to his inability to foresee the consequences of his intentional unrighteousness.
It was not just irrational to do what he did. It was not just insane what he did. It was evil, a rational decision to hate woman and cause her to sin. Evil is not irrational. It is not the work of an insane person. It is the sane, rational decision to bring about sin or even more evil.
Not all sin is evil. To do something intentionally that will injure one is insane for they suffer injury and it is sinful because it will at once bring about the destruction of the one that does it, it being to destroy oneself to become insane. Adam then was incapable of not sinning because he was insane and those that came from him were sure to be insane, not at birth but before long after. Eve’s insanity had a cause. The serpent killed her. Therefore her sin was not unto death for her sin was irrational and forced upon her. It could either be avenged or it could be forgiven. Adam could not be forgiven because he knew the consequences and did it anyway and murdered himself.
Therefore those that know what is unrighteous or wrong and do it anyway cannot be forgiven for who was wronged but the one that did the act? Jesus Christ when he died for such sin does not die for a sin done against anyone else but for the sin done against the one that did it. They are not actually forgiven then but restored to sanity by being taken back to a time in their history before such insanity existed and recreated without the rest of their history and effectively recreated both a new creature as well as the creation they were up to that point in their history; a new sinless being.
God was able to judge it immediately and to render the appropriate justice with his omniscience affording him the opportunity to exercise good judgment.
A boy I know of defamed a girl. It was an unrighteous act and a sin. The girl forgave him. But he had to die for sinning against her just the same. He died to God. The girl endured the scandal and went on without causing the boy to incur any consequences because of his sinning against her because she was righteous and stayed that way by forgiving him. But before God he had done wrong and it will be counted against him at the judgment. But the girl did not count it as a sin against her and God could not tell the boy how the situation would work out because the girl had not decided what her recourse should be or would be and it was not a thing that could be known until she actually forgave him.
Another man attacked the Church, the very body of Christ and was cursed. But God could not know the outcome of the sin for the unrighteous act should have been unforgivable. The man’s spirit went down to death. But in the end of it he became such a problem for the Devil, the Devil took him back to God and the attack on the Church no longer warranted him being cursed and he was forgiven and the curse forgotten for he had defeated the Devil, him a mere man and the Devil an angel.
But the Devil is that angel that delivered the man to God that he might be forgiven for he could not allow him to prove to those in death that the Devil had no power over him but both were not only accountable to God but powerless against the truth of reality, the only truth even the Devil must recognize as the only thing that supports his claim to be ruler of hell, which in reality he is but having a mere arrangement with God that allows him to use a source of truth God does not recognize as the real truth.
God’s truth leads to an everlasting reality that is at all times taking the place of godless reality effectively dividing reality in half, with a truth of the perishing that leads them all in that reality eventually to destruction and a truth of the living that leads the living to an everlasting life. The act that seemed even to God to warrant a curse wound up an act of unrighteousness that was more than paid for by what the man did in hell and the net result was that the man was accepted though he later died and another man was saved in his stead, the last man of his kind.
Therefore enduring one’s punishment for a past sin is righteousness and when the penalty has been satisfied the sinner may be restored. Not all sin, even what appears even to God to be worthy of a curse is unto death. That man later chose to die in order to allow another more complete man to be reborn in his stead and now among the dead preaches his message to the dead spirits there with notable success. But in time it will of course be fruitless as every other attempt to save the dead among the dead has been when they tire of attempting to make a better life for themselves by not accepting the Devil’s rule over them and death and hell will go back to normal.
God is never wrong. He is sometimes surprised when the very unlikely takes place. But he is never wrong. The living are judged by him to be righteous and therefore worthy of everlasting life. The dead are judged by him to be unrighteous and worthy of everlasting death and torment. The evil are judged by him to be worthy of hell and then everlasting torment also.
God is righteous. Therefore let us all be righteous coupled with love tempered with forgiveness.
