The Will's Significance and Marketing
You are currently seated in Dr. John Hobbs' Theology Class alongside first-year freshmen students within one of the best theological colleges in the world. The seminary is a protestant, reformed, Christian institution that is situated in the American south.
Know where you are right now? Are you happy to be here? You know what to do if not.
Dr. Hobbs is a unique individual. Because you are already terrified, you don't need to learn about the fear of the Lord in his school.
DR. Hobbs looks around the rear rows of the classroom before making a statement. "I see that a few of you missed class the previous week. You just need to look through the seminary's archives if you don't think I'll fail you."
Dr. Hobbs has zero tolerance for foolishness and has no patience for lame justifications for grades.
He has severe arthritis and is in his fifties. You wonder how the man is even still alive because of how white and colourless his skin is. Although he has a strong southern accent, his voice is incredibly clear.
We are somehow discussing creation:
Dr. Hobbs asks, "Why did God create the world?," and he doesn't wait for a response. Because He intended for it to be made,
Why is there still life in the world? "Because He Wills That It Exist," the statement concludes.
The majority of the students in the classroom have no idea what the WILL is and probably don't care. They simply want to leave class as soon as possible since they already have what matters—love, joy, tranquilly, etc. Jesus entered their hearts. That is all that matters; they are aware of it, or at least some of them are.
"Jeez, Jeez! You are aware of our love for you. However, please, please, please – whatever you do – don't ask us to think." Is that the case?
(1) If you could, you'd...
(2) If you want to...
And they are entirely correct. If you stop to think about it, Dr. Hobbs and the Marketers are both saying the exact same thing, but with a different goal in mind.
The Westminster Catechism asks, "What is Man's primary goal? (Given that "Women" are implied,
Now listen to Dr. Hobbs' paraphrasing or his own interpretation of the response instead of the Classical Answer: "The Glory of God is a human being FULLY ALIVE!"
What does it mean to be fully alive for you?
Do it now. Answer the following by filling in the blanks:
How do you find my response? Do you fit into it like a suit? Do you want to alter it if not? If you wish to edit it, feel free to do so.
Have you now received your response? If not, your justifications are lame. Just ask yourself what it would mean to be fully alive, and then put your response down on a piece of paper.
Even if you don't know the answer, you can still make a hunch or an intelligent opinion. Nothing is wrong with that. No risk, no reward.
Being shortsighted is preferable to being blind, thus the Creator Himself/Herself/Itself - I AM - He/She/It prefers shortsighted responses. The Great I AM, the Creator.
It is preferable to want something even if it doesn't pan out to do nothing and learn nothing than to want nothing at all. Selling yourself too cheap is preferable to selling yourself at all. You are at least trying and doing your best—and occasionally your worst—but your Creator, I AM, will recognise and applaud your efforts regardless of the outcome.
You have the WILL to be, and whether you use it as an artist, scientist, designer, or marketer, you are working with the I AM to co-create the world, and there is nothing better or more gratifying in all of existence.
How do you get to that, then? How can one achieve that?
You should be fully alive, says I AM. So do I. You as well. Let's finish the work now. If it can be done, will it be done? Yes, if you want it to.
Would you like to? If so, then let's move forward.
And you are aware of your power, right? If not, you can read The Eye of the Storm: Meaning and Marketing again. What kind of power did Patricia Smith possess, and how did I AM use it?
She possessed the ability to create a completely new universe, and in doing so, she merged with her creator. Charlie has a new friend.
Test Answer for "Meaning and Marketing: The Eye of the Storm":
What will the Spider do with her newfound power and how much does she have?
The Spider has the level of authority you desire. Include her in Meaning and Marketing - The Links as one of your links. If you want, give her a name. "Charlotte" suffices. Remember Charlotte whenever you are down, lacking in motivation or inspiration. She'll give you confidence. She now possesses the Lightning Bug, and I AM is light. This lightning bug is not an ordinary one. Before meeting her fate within Charlotte, she made it through the autumnal Equinox.
