Claim. Every clause of the Family Pledge ends with “centering on true love” because true love — defined as love connected only to God, untainted by the fall — is the necessary precondition of every action the pledge promises.
Elaboration. SMM is explicit: “All eight pledges have the phrase, ‘Our family … centering on true love.’ What does this mean? The words true love are spoken on a foundation that has no relationship with the satanic world” (1.2. Centering on true love, 263-194 1994.10.4). He defines the term against fallen-love: “Then what is true love? It is a love that has a relationship only with God. … Owing to the Fall, this love related only to God could not come into being. You have made relationships with satanic love” (274-195 1995.11.3). And the pledge’s premise is recovery of the unfallen pattern: “To overcome and go beyond the world that is connected to false life and false lineage based on the false love that resulted from the Fall, we must have a place of true love, true life, and true lineage” (263-194 1994.10.4). The phrase is therefore not decorative — it specifies the metaphysical channel through which every other pledge promise becomes operative.
