Ken and I have been discussing various aspects of communication between spirits and us and between spirits and God.
When we face him at the end when judgement day happens, we will be unable to say 'we didn't know' what we really knew, or 'we did the right thing' when we did the wrong thing.
Until then, we decieve ourselves. We rationalize our behavior. We pretend we don't have ulterior motives. We believe we are justified in our hate. We believe we are correct in our self-hate. We see believe every experience that validates our poor choices based on what we believe is low value, and discount every evidence that tells us we are intrinsically of great worth.
If we could see clearly beyond the veil into the pre-mortal life, and into the post-mortal existance, we would know our self-deceptions are wrong. So it seems that part of the purpose and effect of the veil is so we can have the opportunity to see if we will believe the lie or if we will feel and believe the truth of the Spirit. With out the veil, we would be aware of God, and we wouldn't be able to lie to him, and likely not to ourselves.
That doesn't answer how this option of lieing to God or ourselves while in his presence functioned in the pre-mortal existance.
Perhaps I need to put in the idea that giving into hate over righteousness is not always a matter of knowing we are lieing.
More to think about.
