Infinite Spirit? All-encompassing Intelligence?

God is an Infinite Spirit or Intelligence, emanating Life and Love. Intelligence includes all that ever was or will be.

One of the attributes of intelligence is freedom. Each emanation of that Infinite Intelligence partakes of its essence, and when expressed is endowed with freedom of development and godlike possibilities. 

There are many spheres and all eternity in which to perfect this tiny ray of the Great Creator.

Source of Life? Sustaining Power?

The Ray of Light, which proceeds from the Word or Infinite Intelligence gives eternal life. Without it nothing could exist.

Life and eternity?

Truth includes all the essentials. Life on earth is given us as a period of preparation, not as our ultimate end. We do not live in time, but for eternity.

God knows best?

God knows best. 

He is Eternal, and Infinite Wisdom and Love, and He sees that the pains and sufferings of His children are nothing in comparison with their eternal happiness. If it seems to Him best that they be removed from earth, it is for a good purpose.

Revolution by love?

Jesus brought into the earth's teachings a far fuller measure of truth than had yet been given to man. 

His teachings revolutionised society by love. 

He was understood by few because of their unwillingness and inability to leave their old standards. 

The measure of truth was too great for immediate understanding by the masses, but served as a vehicle for the intelligent comprehension of God’s Love.

Spiritual body? Transformed perception?

The expression of our spirit life, which on earth was enclosed in a body now becomes clearer in the next life. 

The earthly body has given place to a spiritual one, which remains, in its personal characteristics, the same, but has progressed mentally and spiritually.

Earth senses have given place to spirit senses, among which is a faculty of imparting and receiving knowledge without other effort than desire by a conscious absorption of His vivifying and enlightening Love.

Limitations of earth are removed. Language has become unnecessary. Cause and effect are clearly understood.

Paths to harmony?

God is truth, and if we would vibrate in harmony with Him, we must search far and deep. 

We must learn to put away the enveloping covering of error, custom, self-interest and worldly considerations. 

We must be willing to sacrifice everything that prevents or obstructs the perfect unison, which would exist between us and truth or harmony with God.

Great commandment?

It was to clear away the clouds of ignorance that Christ became man in Jesus. The clear, simple rules that He gave are all that are needed. Love God above all things, and thy neighbour as thyself include everything.

Inner strength? Pure joy? Deep peace?

Love radiates force and strength, joy and happiness, confidence and peace. When we vibrate in conscious unison with love, we expand and enlarge our possibilities to receive more of the divine elixir.

Active love? Inner honesty?

Love is an active principle of life. 

The way to purify and fit ourselves to receive a fuller measure of the sustaining and life-giving force of the Universe, Love, is to search deeply within ourselves every day, find the seeds of selfishness and uproot them—be honest with our inmost selves—find out the naked truth of our own hearts, and try to uproot the weeds, which prevent the growth of our soul.

Is the soul eternal?

Your soul can never die, and will one day be reunited to God in its perfection.

Selfless love?

Love is unselfish. Even the earthly love, which is true thinks always of how it can help and bring happiness to the loved one.

Divine love and suffering?

Try to imagine how great and beneficent is the Divine, All-sustaining, All- comprehending Love of God.

God, Who is Love itself, sees and pities the sufferings of His children, but in His perfect knowledge, He sees that these sufferings, which are only real for time, and not for eternity, serve to develop and strengthen the growth of the individual.

Spiritual comfort?

A broken doll seems a sad and tragic thing to a sensitive child, but the mother knows that another day will bring forgetfulness and need of another toy. In the light of eternity, our greatest sufferings can be as easily consoled.

Key aspects of heaven?

Heaven means perfect happiness. Where there is Absolute Knowledge and Infinite Love, there can be no doubt, fear and pain.

Divine origin? Free will?

Your soul or spirit existed from all eternity in God’s Divine Intelligence. In the fullness of time, and in harmony with His divine plan, His thought found expression in you, and you became endowed with free will and understanding.

Divine imprint? Immortal destiny?

Divinely implanted in us is the souvenir of our Creator, and our immortal destiny persists and guides us through life’s paths.
