EIYPO or EIGPO?

December 6, 2023

There is no error in God’s code. We have been made in His image, in divine perfection, and an acknowledgment that any perceived errors or disharmony in our lives are a result of human interaction rather than a flaw in the divine plan. The idea that “everyone is yourself pushed out” implies that our experiences are reflections of our internal state, and conflicts arise from within ourselves rather than external sources.

Warning Against the Invitation of Sinful Men (Proverbs)

Listen, my son, to your father’s instruction and do not forsake your mother’s teaching. They are a garland to grace your head and a chain to adorn your neck. My son, if sinful men entice you, do not give in to them. If they say, “Come along with us; let’s lie in wait for innocent blood, let’s ambush some harmless soul; let’s swallow them alive, like the grave, and whole, like those who go down to the pit; we will get all sorts of valuable things and fill our houses with plunder; cast lots with us; we will all share the loot”— my son, do not go along with them, do not set foot on their paths; for their feet rush into evil, they are swift to shed blood. How useless to spread a net where every bird can see it! These men lie in wait for their own blood; they ambush only themselves! Such are the paths of all who go after ill-gotten gain; it takes away the life of those who get it.

God’s love is ever-present, even in the face of human imperfections and actions. Constant, peaceful and eternal. Love is the foundational force in existence, and we are merely interfering in its perfect flow.

For we are God’s handiwork
Ephesians 2

See others through the eyes of God, and in this way, recognize the inherent goodness and divinity in everyone. Viewing others with love and understanding, transcending our flawed own perception, is a way to align ourselves with the divine perspective. EIYPO becomes EIGPO (Everyone is GOD pushed out)

In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us
1 John 4.10

Ultimately, EIYPO is a shift in perception, encouraging us to move beyond fear-based manipulation or domination tactics (the common EIYPO interpretation) and to approach relationships with love and a recognition of the inherent divinity in oneself and others, EIYPO becomes EIGPO.

Do not try to change people; they are only messengers telling you who you are
Neville Goddard

In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:

Who, being in very nature God,
    did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
rather, he made himself nothing
    by taking the very nature of a servant,
    being made in human likeness.

And being found in appearance as a man,
    he humbled himself
    by becoming obedient to death—
        even death on a cross!

Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
    and gave him the name that is above every name,
that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
    in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,
    to the glory of God the Father.

Philippians 2
