error to be as immortal as Truth. The Pharisees thought
that they could raise the spiritual from the material. They
would first make life result in death, and then
resort to death to reproduce spiritual life.
Jesus taught them how death was to be overcome by
spiritual Life, and demonstrated this beyond cavil.
(Divinity not childless)
Life demonstrates Life. The immortality of Soul makes

moment from His reflection, man, during that
moment there would be no divinity reflected.
The Ego would be unexpressed, and the Father would be
childless, - no Father.
If Life or Soul and its representative, man, unite for
a period and then are separated as by a law of divorce to
be brought together again at some uncertain future time
and in a manner unknown, - and this is the general
religious opinion of mankind, - we are left without a
rational proof of immortality. But man cannot be separated
for an instant from God, if man reflects God.
Thus Science proves man's existence to be intact.
(Thought-forms)
The myriad forms of mortal thought, made manifest
as matter, are not more distinct nor real to the material
senses than are the Soul-created forms

to mortals the immutable, harmonious, divine Principle,
- is unfolding Life and the universe, ever present and
eternal.
God's man, spiritually created, is not material and
