Imagine a world where every person was supported in developing their skills to the fullest potential. But in this world, people don't have to compete for a few choice jobs, opportunities, etc. For every person, a perfectly suited life is available. A fulfilling job that uses their skills can afford them a home that perfectly provides their needs for shelter, space, and style. They'll earn enough to afford all the necessities and a good deal of comforts.
In this world, social relationships are most important. Society is built to encourage interaction and division is a thing of the past. People are different, but differences aren't a source of contention, nor even of passive separation, but truly integrated and celebrated.
Power is not abused. People necessarily need to have coordinators and conductors, "leaders" in a sense, but only in so far as function without an ounce of personal pride or cowtowing from those being coordinated. These "leaders" will fully understand that they are the servants of and dependent on those under them.
Likewise in such a culture of respect, no one would be looked down on for the position they occupy, nor despise doing work that is "beneath them" because there is no hierarchy. Concepts like 'beneath', would be purely and literally locational.
Science has advanced to the point that people most fully understand the integration of the world. And where they don't, they know enough to stop manipulating things in damaging ways. Health of humans extends to animals, plants, and the world as a whole. People understand that every action affects the whole system and the system affects every action. Because of this, sickness is a thing of the past. Pollution is no more. Mental illness is eradicated.
Because of the emotional and physical health of people, when things start to break down, it does not become a train wreck, cascade failure, but is absorbed in the understanding embrace of society and the world. Truly healing and restoring such that even crime disappeared.
Sounds great right? Regardless of what you believe, I bet you were reading this thinking how it fits your ideal world. But I got this directly from Jesus. This is what he taught. If you didn't recognize that, I invite you to look at the Bible (particularly the first five books of the New Testament) with open eyes this Christmas and see if I'm not right.
