      Chapter 1: Jesus Explains What Sin is To Rebecca and Mark

      Jesus entertained a guest in a small, opened-air room. To himself, Jesus was impressive. This was not to say that he was egotistical, but rather, that he understood the path he had chosen to create.

      His guest’s name was Rebecca. Spry and tender, she marked 47 years on her calendar of life. She was aged, but only because she had begun life in the womb of an alcoholic mother.

      Jesus understood, and he held Rebecca’s hand as both prayed for a gift that Jesus called love.

      Rebecca, take a moment to pray and you are right, said Jesus.

      Master, said Rebecca. Need I tether the moments of prayer I have prayed with you? I am a certain seamstress, and they will make a brilliant macramé.

      Jesus smiled. Rebecca, it is not a macramé that we have come to make today, but a macrocosm.

      What, dear Master, could a macrocosm be composed of? asked Rebecca.

      I must remind myself of exactly what a macrocosm is meant to be today, Jesus laughed. A macrocosm is the purpose of success, and let us call this success a magnitude.

      Jesus laughed again. Let us make all three in this order. First, let us string the moments of your scene together so that you understand the direction of your life. Then, let us instruct these scenes to follow each other in succession, and with a brilliant overture, let us wrap this production together with what we call a magnitude.

      How divine, said Rebecca.

      As divine as any, Jesus said.

      Who shall star in this Greek cinema? asked Rebecca.

      Why, you of course, replied Jesus. I wouldn’t want anyone else to play your part.

      I will prepare my makeup, said Rebecca. Do you enjoy eye shadow?

      It would be splendid upon you, Jesus smiled, but upon me today, it would frighten the path of the souls I must cherish.

      Then I shall share with you another part of my mystery, said Rebecca.

      Jesus smiled again. Rebecca, there are no mysteries to me.

      Then how can we embrace and embark on our private and well-determined discoveries? asked Rebecca.

      What you misunderstand, Rebecca, is that I have already created you. My love for you requires no discovery of what I have already determined. My love for you requires no mystery in order to remind myself of why I love you in an eternal part of me I call beauty. My love for you is with you and my joy is when I share the moments of each scene as I determine, Jesus explained.

      Mark entered the room. He and Rebecca were kindred, and yet they regarded each other with pain. Mark knew why. When Rebecca smiled, she negated Mark’s humor. This is to say, Rebecca would entertain only herself when she laughed. No one
