The book of Genesis is the key to the Bible. In the New Testament it is quoted 27 times literally and 38 times substantially. It tells in a very few words how God first imaged man and the universe and then turned the development over to Jehovah, who has been in a process of manifestation for ages and eons.

God was also known to the Israelites as Jehovah-shalom—"I am peace.” It is found that we can demonstrate peace of mind by holding the words “I am peace” with the understanding that the real "I am" is Jehovah within.

People everywhere on earth are now realizing as never before that the well-being of this world rests with its inhabitants. It is no longer a religious dogma or a philosophical theory that the destiny of the race is in the hands of man. Humanity has built age after age only to find that its structures do not endure. They are faulty because the divine plan has not been consulted by the builder. Our Bible plainly teaches that God implanted in man executive ability to carry out all the creative plans of the Great Architect.

Metaphysical bible students recognize in the Gospel of John a certain spiritual quality that is not found in the other Gospels. Although this is not true of all Bible readers, it may be said that those who look for the mystical find it in the language of this book.

Only in a few instances does the original writing conceal the deep truths that the student seeks to discern.

Jesus saw in Himself the perfect pattern of the God-Mind. He lived so close to that pattern that He became its perfect expression. As He continued to live closer and ever closer to God, He beheld all men as living inventions of God. And through His spiritualized mentality, He awakened the image of the perfect pattern of the God-Mind in those who came to Him for help. Thus - by arousing their souls' energy to such an extent that the physical became immersed in the healing life - He enabled the perfect man to come into manifestation.

We are meeting for the purpose of getting a fuller understanding of the powers that are latent within us. Our prayers, our meditations, and all of our words, should tend to the one point in the lesson - strength. Remember, this is a school in which the Lord of the universe is the teacher. As students, we should demonstrate the lesson as we proceed. As students of truth, we know that there is one universal strength, "in you all, through you all and above you all," and that man expresses that strength. And let us be "instant," as Paul says, in our prayer for strength.

The Father has provided a universal seed substance that responds with magical power to the active mind of man. Faith in the increasing capacity of this seed substance, whether wrapped in visible husks or latent in invisible electrical units, always rewards man with the fruits of his labor.

In prayer we need to be deeply conscious that God is the almighty one, the supreme creator, the ruler of the Universe, that he is infinite and eternal; we need to know that God is the underlying, unchangeable truth, "with whom can be no variation, neither shadow that is cast by turning". God as principle is the absolute good expressed in all creation.

“Thoughts are things,” and they occupy space. They are alive and think themselves after their kind. They bring forth fruit according to the seed planted by thought in the mind. Tell me what kind of thoughts you are holding about yourself or your neighbor, and I will tell you what you will experience in health, finances, and family relations.

They were like some of our scientists, experimenters in the laboratory of Being.
