| Humility is the stepping-stone to a higher recognition of God. (page 1) |
| Great charity and humility is necessary in this work of healing. (page 7) |
| Count as evil, count your enemy to be that which defiles, defaces, and dethrones the image of Christ that you should reflect. (page 8) |
| Affliction of the flesh, rightly understood is sanctified (of God) for the purification of the flesh... (page 9) |
| As one grows into manhood or womanhood of Christianity, one finds so much lacking, and so very much requisite (required) to become wholly Christlike that...man's ability to meet them is from God; for, being His likeness and image, man must reflect the full dominion of Spirit -even its supremacy (rule) over sin, sickness & death. (page 16) |
| (As Christians we must ) love Spirit only, not its opposite, in every God-quality, even in substance, recognize thyself as God's spiritual child...true man and true woman...as of spiritual origin, God's reflection. (page 18) |
| God is All-in-all, Spirit is immortal Truth..real and eternal, Spirit is God, and man is His image and likeness. (page 21) |
| Application of (God's) divine principals in the lives of believers(by faith) results in the restoration of health &/or results in manifestations of healing. (ref.chapter 2) |
| "Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God." Nothing (less than) aside from the spiritualization -the highest Christianization- of (our) thoughts and desires, can give the true perception of God (and right mindedness) that result in health, happiness, and holiness... (page 15) |
| The new birth is not the work of a moment. It begins with moments, and goes on with years; moments of surrender to God, of childlike trust and joyful adoption of good; moments of self-abnegation (self-denial) self-concentration, heaven-born hope, and spiritual love. (page 15) |
| What a faith-lighted thought is this! that mortals can lay off the "old man," until man is found to be the image of the infinite good that we name God, and the fulness of the stature of man in Christ appears. (page 15) |
| In mortal and material man, goodness seems in embryo. Bysuffering for sin, and the gradual fading out of mortal & material (carnal)senses of man, thought is developed into an infant Christianity; and, feeding at first on the milk of the Word, it drinks in the sweet revealings of a new and more spiritual Life and Love. (pages 15-16) |
| Here, then, is the awakening from the dream of life in matter (awakening from purely material existance) to the great fact that GOD is the only Life; that, therefore, we must entertain a higher sense of both God and man. We must learn that GOD is infinitely more than a person, or finite form can contain; that GOD is a divine Whole, and All, an all-pervading Intelligence and Love, Divine Infinite Principal and that Christianity is a divine ("divinely ordained") study of and/or scriptural pursuit of the Knowledge of God. (page 16) |
| God is the first and only cause. (page 23) |
| The universe is not a result of atomic action, material force or energy; it us not organized dust. God, Spirit, (Infinite) Mind are terms synonymous for the one God whose reflection is creation, and man is His image and likeness. (page 23) |
| God is seen only in that which reflects good, Life, Truth, Love --which manifests all His Attributes and power, even as the human likeness thrown upon a miror repeats precisely(reflects) the looks and actions of the object in front of it. (page 23) |
| The Scriptures name God as good, and the Saxon term for God is also good. From this premise comes the logical conclusion that God is naturally and divinely infinite good. How, then can this conclusion change or be changed to mean that good is evil, or the creator of evil? In the Christian study or understanding of God (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) the terms God and good, as Spirit are synonymous: (therefore the idea) that God, good, creates (sends or uses) evil or that which results in evil is not true, (the idea is invalid because it is completely contradictory to God's Divine Nature, His Goodness.) (page 23) |
| Evil signifies the absense of good. Since God is good, Whole and in Unity, all harmonious Spirit -then, inharmony (disunity), sin, disease, and death are invalid (a lie against the reality of God, i.e., sin, disease etc are made void or negated by virtue of the Truth, by the reality of God's goodness.) (page 27) |
| The Master's (Jesus) practical knowledge of the law of the Spirit over sin and death, together with His
divine Love, healed the sick and raised the dead. He literally annulled the claims of physical law by the superiority of the higher law; hence His declaration, "these signs shall follow them that believe..." (page 28) |
| Destroy the belief that you can walk, and volition ceases; for muscles cannot move without mind. (page 28) |
| God would not be omnipotent if there were in reality another mind creating or governing man or the universe. God is immortal mind made manifest in all thoughts & desires that draw mankind toward purity, health, holiness... (page 37) |
| To avoid being subject to disease requires the understanding of how you are healed. (page 39) |
| The reason some are more used of God as healers than others is because some have gained more power over sin in themselves/in their lives than others. (page 40) |
| In Christian warfare against sin...one must be purged through Christ, Truth, and thus be ready for victory. The good fight must be fought by those who keep the faith...mental purgation must go on: it promotes spiritual growth, scales the mountain of human endeavor, and gains the summit _in Understanding and Knowledge, that could not otherwise be reached, -where the struggle with sin is forever done. (page 41) |
| Concerning healing: the effect of "the lack of knowledge of truth"is reversed or removed by restoring the mind of man to the knowledge of the truth regarding sickness. (page 41) |
| Faith (knowledge and understanding of truth) manifests healing, or health; (on the other hand) the action of fear, (lack of knowledge & lack of understanding of truth) manifests itself in sickness and/or disease. (page 41) |
| The divine principal_ (Faith) which governs the universe, including man, if demonstrated, is sufficient for all emergencies ...though we may not (yet) prove equal or be able to bring the results of what we know to be true. (page 41) |
| The ability to demonstrate/manifest healing the sick to the extent that Jesus did, will come when _Believers possess as much of the divine Spirit as he shared, and utilize its power to overcome sin. (page 55) |
| Man is seen only in the true likeness of his Maker. (page 62) |
| The theology of Christianity_ is Truth; opposed to which is the error of sickness, sin & death that Truth destroys. (page 62) |
| The Scriptures refer to God as saying, "Come now, and let us reason together." There is but one Right Mind, and that one should and does govern man. The theology of Christian_healing is based on the action of the Divine Mind over the human mind and body; whereas, "mind-cure" rests on the notion that the human mind can cure its own disease... (pages 59 & 62) |
| Our Master (Jesus) understood that Life, Truth, Love are the Triune Principal of all pure theology; also that this divine trinity is the one infinite remedy for the opposite triad: sickness, sin, and death. (page 63) |
| Divine Truth is positive, right and good; Error is negative, wrong and evil. (page 65) |
| Error in premise is met with error in practice... Ignorance of the cause of disease (whether it is physical or spiritual) results in the inability to remove that cause or its effect. (page 66) |
| Christian _knowledge of Truth concerning the cause of disease inables removal of the cause and its effect. (page 66) |
| The gospel of healing demonstrates the law of Love. (page 67) |
| In Genesis 1:26 we read: "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air." The (basic) principal of _Christianity is: that man shall (scripturally) use (or utilize) the Divine power. (page 69) |
| Jesus' triumph over the grave was an everlasting victory for Life; it demonstrated the power and permanence of Spirit.
He met and conquered the resistance of the world. Christ was "the way;" since Life and Truth was the way that gave us through a (His) human person, a spiritual revelation of man's possible earthly development. (pages 74 & 75) |
| Fear is the weapon in the hand of tyrants (God does not use fear; He appeals to us through His Love.) (page 99) |
| Through knowledge of the truth, you can take dominion over & destroy sin, sickness etc. if you scripturally destroy false beliefs concerning them. (page 105) |
| Divine Love is our hope, strength and shield. Obedience is the offspring of Love; and Love is the principal of unity, Love is the basis of all right thinking and acting; it fulfilsthe law. We see eye to eye (dwell in unity) and know as we are known, reciprocate kindness and work wisely, all in proportion as we love. (pages 113 & 117) |
| (Scriptural) Knowledge of Truth enables the believer to overcome the world, the flesh, and all evil, to have dominion over his own sinful sense and self. (page 125) |
| The first and last lesson of Christianity is love, perfect love, and love made perfect through the cross. (page 138) |
