The authority and power of God are the essence of God Himself. They were not learned or added externally, but are the inherent essence of God Himself. The relationship between the Creator and created beings can never be altered. As a member of created humanity, one must keep their own position, and behave conscientiously. Dutifully guard that which is entrusted to you by the Creator. Do not act out of line, or do things beyond your range of ability or which are loathsome to God. Don’t try to be great, or become a superman, or above others, nor seek to become God. This is how people should not desire to be.

Seeking to become great or a superman is absurd. Seeking to become God is even more disgraceful; it is disgusting, and despicable. What’s commendable, and what created beings should hold to more than anything else, is to become a true created being; this is the only goal that all people should pursue.
