战争
道上的战争代表着试探性的战斗，当善的东西被恶的或假的东西攻击时。攻击的邪恶来自于地狱的众多社会中的一个，它的运作方式是唤起我们心中的自私的爱，而这种爱是与我们所知道的正确的东西相反的。然后，我们自私的爱攻击滋养着希望成为一个好人的爱，于是我们的心中就有了战争。这以以色列人的子民在迦南地及其周围的战争为代表，在旧约圣经中有很长的历史。自私的爱从我们的遗传中在我们的心中泛滥成灾，而善良的爱随着我们的良知的发展而长久地伴随着我们的良心而来。如果我们没有良知，我们就不可能受诱惑，我们会立刻顺着私心的意愿而屈服。但最终的结果是，我们会被地狱所奴役，为所欲为。

神
主是爱本身，以智慧本身的形式表达。爱是他的本质，也是他的全部。智慧-对如何将爱付诸行动的热爱理解-稍微有点外在，为爱提供了一种表达自我的方式。 当圣经说“耶和华”时，它代表的是至高无上的爱，这是主的本质。那爱本身就是一个完整的整体，而爱也是一个，只适用于主的名字。然而，智慧表达在各种各样的思想和观念中，这些著作统称为神的真理。也有许多虚构的神，有时天使和人也可以被称为神（耶和华说摩西将成为亚伦的神）。因此，当圣经称上帝为“上帝”时，多数情况下是指神圣的真理。 在其他情况下，“上帝”指的是所谓的神圣人类。情况是这样的： 作为人类，我们不能直接将主作为上帝的爱来参与。它太强大了，太纯净了。相反，我们必须通过神圣的真理了解他来接近他。因此，神圣的真理是人类形式的主，这是我们可以接近和理解的形式。因此，“上帝”也被用来指代人类这一方面，因为它是真理的表达。

建造
建造东西一般是指把各种比较简单的东西拼凑起来，做成一个有用的、比较复杂的结构，就像用木头或砖头盖房子一样，在圣经中通常是这样用的。在希拿地，人希望建造一座塔，在新约中耶稣建议聪明人要把房子建在石头上。但从代表意义上讲，意思是指建造一个精神和属灵的结构，就像教会的教义或灵性现实的个别概念在一个人的头脑中的个别概念。 建筑材料也是有代表性的。巴别塔是用砖头建造的，砖头是人造的石头，或者说是人造的 "真理"，也就是 "真理 "不是来自神，而是人想出来的属灵的想法。聪明人要建造的房子是建立在天然的或 "神所造 "的岩石上，也就是来自于道的真理。

回答
一般来说，"回答 "是指一种属灵的接受状态。归根结底，这意味着接受主，主不断地试图将真正的想法和美好的愿望灌输到我们的心灵和思想中。它也可以是在我们的外在部分接受自己的内在部分的引导--承诺使我们的行动跟随我们更深的信仰。 在圣经中，"回答 "经常与 "说 "搭配在一起。在这些情况下，一般来说，它表示的是一种感知的程度加上接受的程度。这意味着你不仅能接受从主那里临到你的东西，而且还能看到它，认识到其中的真理，并认识到这里面的真理，这将使你的生活更加美好。
