[Law-filled thoughts may justify cruelty, self-dealing, anxiety-relief and lack of faith. The law washes these monstrosities over with perfection of the letter of the law.
Law fixates on the rules. The rules may be misconstrued in order to rendezvous with the sinful attractor in my dying heart. The way that I fulfill the rules may provide me with the pleasures that I crave.]

[When thoughts3V(2 are made rigid by scruples, then deeds2(1V)) freeze the heart in a fixation on what must not be done.
Failure seems to be unavoidable. My own deeds violate my conscience. They can never be perfect. They can never fulfill the command.
I do the deeds that I do not want to do even as I do the deeds that I do.]
Sin-filled words blaspheme, self-justify, and express pride. Sin, illuminated in the mirror of the world, attracts. I am drawn to look into the mirror. Sin is glamorous and fashionable.
[My inability to escape my bondage refutes the common use of the term ‘free will’. I cannot change my path. I do the deeds that I do not want to do.
It seems as if my bondage2(1H)) becomes my disposition1H (in another intersection).]

[When words3H(2 are twisted by sin, bondage2(1H)) withers the heart2.
My heart fixates on the bondage that will kill me2H1H)).]

[Law enters through thought3V(2 then influences deeds2(1V)).
Sin enters through words3H(2 then produces bondage2(1H).]

[A second co-opposition composes the vertical axis.
This is: Thought3V(2 and deed2(1V).
This vertical co-opposition intersects the horizontal co-oppositions of either responsibility3H(2 & freedom2(1H)) or words3H(2 & bondage2(1H)).
My heart2 is the single actuality that arises from the congruence of two co-oppositions.]
[Responsibility tends to exclude the normal context belonging to words, and visa versa.]
[Freedom and bondage are exclusively opposed even though they are both exercises of the heart2(1H).
What does this imply?
Since exclusion is a property of the realm of normal context, each of these terms co-oppose an independent normal context.
Freedom2(1H)) co-opposes responsibility3H(2.
Bondage2(1H)) co-opposes words3H(2.]
