One of the things I struggle with still is when someone uses the word "gnostic" to mean something that doesn't represent what I believe. Even if it's not directed at me, my impulse is to respond to it and correct the person. I know this is an example of the Archons at work, trying to get me to focus on petty things, in particular things that aren't even there to begin with. Today that happened, I was about to post a response to a person who used the word gnostic to mean someone who relies on their feelings alone, but then I thought to myself that would distract from the topic. I was about to PM this person but this person is a friend and I know she was not directing it at me.
So I decided to direct this impulse instead to writing this thread here and discuss how do you avoid the trap of words. How do you personally avoid the trap of labels? How do you not let it get under your skin and get caught being distracted from keeping perspective of what is important in life?
