To be in the presence of God, or in the presence of the Holy Spirit where two or three of God's children are gathered together with the Holy Spirit among them, is to be vulnerable to the detection of dishonesty. The last thing which an addict or supportive codependent wants to experience is to experience the detection of their dishonesty. Thus, such dis-eased people fear God and fear the Holy Spirit in the presence of God's powerful children of integrity. They are ill-at-ease because of their fear of being discovery of their dishonesty and the truth about their games of mutual self deception. God is feared because God is the God of truth and integrity. God does not show respect for successful manipulations which involve doing violence to the truth or to the integrity of other people and/or their community. God does not respect dishonest people who try to impress Her with their dishonest self-representations of who and what they are. S/he is not impressed by the use of dishonesty as a manipulative tool, for S/he is One with Integrity. God calls Her children to be honest and to give up childish games of manipulative mutual self deception. Such games undermine personal and communal integrity and God chooses not to rescue Her children from the consequences of their dishonesty. God's judgement rests in the consequences of playing games of mutual self deception, not in artificial punitive initiatives designed to discourage forbidden behaviors. (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
