know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.

Hereby know ye the Spirit of God:

Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:

And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is the spirit of anti-Christ, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.

We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and everyone that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not, knoweth not God; for God is love. Hereby know we that we dwell in him and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.

Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God. And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe in the name of the Son of God.

These things we know are the things that are true; that are eternal; that ever were and always will be.

Having overcome the vanities of the flesh, the allurements of the sight, hearing, feeling, smelling and tasting, I am to show others the Way. I am to do this by demonstrating to them that I am at one with Good, Truth, Life, Love, Spirit, Charity, Mercy, Knowledge, Intelligence, Mind. I am to do this by demonstrating that I am Good, I am Truth, I am Life, I am Love, I am Spirit, I am Charity, I am Mercy, I am Knowledge, I am Intelligence, I am Mind.

I confess, I affirm, I declare that Jesus is the Son of God. God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

I know God the Father, God the Son, and God the Spirit; I know that they are one, that there is but one and that Its name is Presence, Power and Wisdom. I am expressing that One always to the extent of my understanding. Every time that I dare to do anything in conformity with what God is, I am advanced in Knowledge of God, and correspondingly push back the world, the flesh and the devil, which is concentrated under the comprehensive term Public Opinion.

When I do what is in conformity with God, God is manifested by me. And when I do anything which is not in conformity with God, then God is not with me or in me.

As God the Father, God the Son and God the Spirit, was with Jesus; and as that was the reason he was called the Anointed, the Messiah, the Christ: so as I live in conformity with his life, I shall be like him.

As I live in conformity with the Principle which animated the Truth seekers in all time, so I shall demonstrate it. And as I do not live in accordance with that Principle I shall not demonstrate it. If I fail to demonstrate the

SO

law, it will never be the fault of the law, but it will be because I look for satisfaction outside of the law. And I shall have to take the consequences of the law. As long as I stay in the Promised Land, or Abide under the shadow of his wing, I shall be all right, And I know that there is no power but myself can separate me from the Peace that passeth understanding. Nobody but myself can ever be to blame for anything that ever comes upon me.

I know the seeming charms of vanity. I know them now more than ever before, and while loving them and because I love them, I am able to know their falsity, their delusive appearance; and I am able to say to them, the picture you draw is very beautiful and intoxicating but I I know you, I know you for what you really are; I am not and cannot be deceived by you any more.

Broken are the spells that bound me:

All the charms of the magicians,

All the magic powers of evil,

have been found out and demonstrated over.

I love those appearances, as I love my enemies; and just because I love them, I can say to them in the most tender and loving manner:

Dear heart,wake up and live in the Spirit of Purity, Innocence and Wisdom. Know Christ, the Truth. Know the power of Love, that passeth all understanding. Know that Love taketh no account of herself, whether she is neglected or forsaken or abandoned-it matters not, she keeps on through good report or bad report, through sickness or health, through riches or proverty; and gives out, gives out, always.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotton Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.

A friend of publicans and sinners.

And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples. And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, Why eateth your master with publicans and sinners? But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick. But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentence.

But I say unto you which hear:

Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you, bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you. For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them. And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same. And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again. But love your enemies and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil. Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father is also merciful. Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven: Give and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give unto your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again. And he spake a parable unto them; can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch? The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master.

Everyone that is perfect shall be as his master.

Who and what is my master?

Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness ? Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. Whosoever doeth Good is the servant of Good. My master is that to which I yield myself.

I yield myself to the Most High.

1 yield myself to the Living God.

I yield myself to Christ, the Truth.

I am at-one-ment with Christ, the Truth.

I am at-one-ment with the Living God

I am at-one-ment with the Most High.

I will hear what God the Lord will speak:

For he will speak peace unto his people, and unto his saints; But let them not turn again to folly.

Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him;

That glory may dwell in our land.

Mercy and Truth are met together;
Righteousness and Peace have kissed.

Truth shall spring out of the earth;

And righteousness shall look down from Heaven.

Yea, the Lord shall give that which is good;
And our land shall yield her increase.

Righteousness shall go before him;

And shall set us in the way of his steps.

Justice and Judgment are the habitation of thy throne;

Mercy and Truth shall go before thy face.

For the word of the Lord is right;
And all his works are done in Truth.

He loveth righteousness and judgment:

The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.
