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。

害怕
对未知的恐惧和对变化的恐惧都是一种常见的观念，共同涵盖了我们在自然生活中容易产生的恐惧的广泛范围。从某种意义上说，当《圣经》中的人被描述为 "害怕 "时，它们的背后也蕴含着灵性的意义。 根据《文集》的描述，当一种更高尚、更内在的属灵状态与一种更低级、更外在的属灵状态沟通时，人们就会感到恐惧，并表明这种状态需要被改造和提升。圣诞故事中的牧羊人就是如此，当天使来告诉他们一个全新的属灵时代时，他们的第一反应是恐惧。摩西在燃烧的灌木丛中，雅各在看到梯子的异象后，甚至门徒看到耶稣在加利利海上行走，都是如此--在这些情况下，一个更高的状态正在向他们伸出手来，要求他们接受属灵生命的新阶段。 这在更消极的意义上也是如此，当邪恶和错误的思想状态接触到精神上的东西，感觉到自己的悲惨的启示的威胁时，也是如此。 圣经》也经常讲到人敬畏神，这是一个相关但不同的想法，其他地方也有涉及。

建造
在圣经中，"建立 "其实有两个意思。当一个东西第一次被建造的时候，或者说是最典型的意义上的建造，它的意思是收集相对外在的思想，建立起一个教义体系--从某种意义上说，这是一个你可以使用或居住的结构。不过，在其他情况下，"建立 "是指已经被破坏的东西。例如，从战斗中留下的废墟，可以重新建造。在这些情况下，"建造 "指的是去除我们对邪恶的欲望，这样我们就可以开始一个新的灵性成长阶段。在这些情况下，"建立 "常常与 "兴起 "一起使用，意思是在同一过程中去除错误的思维方式。
