12/08/2014 14:09Our Freedom In TruthThe spiritual FACT of man's true freedom "stirs" my heart everytime I read about it. We know that “he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths” all the way to the self-government which includes our unalienable rights! Isaiah 2:3. This teaching is going on Now, moment by moment as we humbly seek to know more.
This supreme Teacher is ever present and does not leave us comfortless. The Spirit of the Lord is everywhere, and our liberty is sure as we work diligently according to His will.

12/11/2014 11:08Re: Our Freedom In TruthThis freedom is for everyone the world over who is willing accept and understand His Truth. The only way we stop being victims to personal sense!!
565 : 6-7 (to :), 16 (Christ)-18 Revelation xii. 5. "And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron:
Christ, God's idea, will eventually rule all nations and peoples — imperatively, absolutely, finally — with divine Science," for man's true freedom. Emphasis added.
My own experience proves to me that I would not have suffered so long had I readily, humbly and honestly accepted the Creator and Preserver's vision of who I am, (while working to gain the understanding). God never created the human mind; the Scientific Statement of Being tells me so, Science and Health, p 468.
Today and days gone by it has always been disobedience to God's laws that brings the suffering. I see how I did a great deal of believing, professing, and a lot of fooling myself that I was something (a Christian in its proper sense) when I was not.
It took the awakening to all these lies, to start a life in humble obedience to God and to the realization of true freedom. I finally saw that if I am willing to let go of what is not true about me,turn away from the down-pulling thoughts that come saying: I cannot, I don't have enough understanding, I am not up there yet, and see all these as evil's useless and powerless rantings, I could begin to accept and understand the help being offered for me to see myself correctly, to see my true self which is spiritual, complete, and free.

12/12/2014 08:15Re: Our Freedom In TruthThis morning I read this in The Biblical Illustrator:
” The Church would be a good deal wiser if it always took care to distinguish between the doubt of corruption and worldliness, the cold, callous, sneering doubt, and the doubt of a brave young heart that doubts because religion is so poor an affair, that doubts because of the great wrongs in the world, because of the deeds of evil that sin works, that doubts precisely because it is crying for the reality. We should go to every such man and say: “My brother, you are not an infidel; you are called to be a religious man beyond the common. You are not an atheist. God has hold of you, and wants you for Himself. Go and do something heroic, and show that God’s religion is the mightiest force. Go and demand the reality, and win a victory for God and His kingdom such as the world has never seen yet.”
