Gift #7 - 12 Steps to Wholeness

12 Steps to Wholeness

God is love and as we act in obedience to God we receive his power and influence through heaven’s veil to help shape and mold the outcome of events in our lives. Love is also light; we are on earth to grow in light until we overcome all darkness, insomuch that darkness can have no power or influence over our spirits. As we grow in love, light, and virtue (chastity, clean hands and heart, moral excellence to always do right, strength, courage, and the capacity to act) we receive confidence, pure knowledge, and the constant companionship of the Holy Ghost. Who is the Holy Ghost that we should want his companionship while ending the fat epidemic?

The Record of Heaven: He is the record of all things past, present, and future and when he abides in you he will provide timely instruction to enable you to end the fat epidemic.

The Comforter: He is the comforter and as you walk from darkness into light he will provide peace and assurance when your path is true. By comparison, he warns you as you commence to wander from the path that will enable you to end the fat epidemic for you and your family.

The Peaceable Things of Immortal Glory: Injustice leads to strife. God’s kingdom is one of peace and justice. The Holy Ghost leads us to walk in the ways of peace by leading us to love our neighbors as ourselves and to deal justly one with another. As we learn his peaceable ways we avoid the terrible stresses that lead to compulsive eating disorders and to obesity.

The Truth of All Things: He is the Spirit of truth by which we are to receive all truth. To hear or receive truth by any other way is false and does not enable the power to succeed. As we receive truth by the Spirit of truth, it causes both teacher and learner to understand one another, to be edified, and to rejoice together. And that which does not edify is not of God, and is of darkness. That which is of God is light; and he that receiveth light, and continueth in God, receiveth more light; and that light groweth brighter and brighter until the perfect day. Even dietary truth that leads you to enjoy your natural or ideal body weight is to be received only in this manner.

Quickeneth and Maketh Alive All Things: Every beat of the heart and breath we take is a gift made possible unto us by the Holy Ghost. And it is by the Holy Ghost that our minds, hearts, bodies, and spirits are quickened to receive and do whatsoever he would have us receive and do to progress in his perfect light. As you work to end the fat epidemic for self and others, he will quicken and make alive the process within you, unto your being able to accomplish the thing.

Knoweth All Things: He knows all that we must come to know in order to end the fat epidemic for self and others. As you live so that he can abide in you always you will grow in whatsoever knowlede that is needed until such time that you lay hold upon sufficient light and knowledge to be made strong insomuch that darkness can have no more power or influence over you in this thing.

All Power According to Wisdom, Mercy, Truth, Justice, and Judgement: He also provides the power or grace to enable you to both receive and retain a remission of poor eating and other lifestyle habits, and to be made strong in these things. And his grace is given according to his wisdom, mercy, truth, justice and judgement according to your willingness and ability to walk in obedience to your covenants.

As we then retain the constant companionship of the Holy Ghost, we thereby retain a remission of all within our dispositions that cause us to be made. We retain this remission as we become sanctified and made strong in this thing. Through these steps we are given all things needed, as we walk in obedience to our covenants, to secure our natural body weight for a lifetime. The following 12 steps are presented that you may learn to bring heaven’s power into your physical world even insomuch that you will be made to lay hold upon timely instruction, comfort, peace, assurance, truth, quickening power, knowledge and power whereby you will come to enjoy your natural or ideal body weight forever. This is the only truly sustainable way to be made strong in this thing for a lifetime.
