is no death, no inaction, diseased action, overaction, nor
reaction."
(Vision opening)
Life is real, and death is the illusion. A demonstration
of the facts of Soul in Jesus' way resolves the dark
visions of material sense into harmony and
immortality. Man's privilege at this supreme
moment is to prove the words of our Master: "If a man
keep my saying, he shall never see death." To divest
thought of false trusts and material evidences in order
that the spiritual facts of being may appear, - this is
the great attainment by means of which we shall sweep
away the false and give place to the true. Thus we may
establish in truth the temple, or body, "whose builder
and maker is God."
(Intelligent consecration)
We should consecrate existence, not "to the unknown
God" whom we "ignorantly worship," but to the eternal
builder, the everlasting Father, to the Life
which mortal sense cannot impair nor mortal
belief destroy. We must realize the ability of mental
might to offset human misconceptions and to replace them
with the life which is spiritual, not material.
(The present immortality)
The great spiritual fact must be brought out that man
is, not shall be, perfect and immortal. We must hold
forever the consciousness of existence, and
sooner or later, through Christ and Christian
Science, we must master sin and death. The evidence
of man's immortality will become more apparent, as material
beliefs are given up and the immortal facts of being
are admitted.
(Careful guidance)
The author has healed hopeless organic disease, and
raised the dying to life and health through the understanding
of God as the only Life. It is a sin to believe
