THIRD DAY

GOD’S KINGDOM

 

            Ques. How am I to regard the Science of the day?

            Ans. All your Science is falsely called “Science.” It is the want of “exact knowledge” which makes it what it is. “Nescience,” it should be called. It sees not the full stature of man. It knows not of his link with the Mystery which surrounds him. It is as the raging waves of ocean which cannot discern whence comes their fury. We would have you know the full meaning of human life and the full consequence of all ye do on earth.

 

            (In answer to a question.)

            When your lives are set to holy impulses, though your actions be weak and uncertain, ye grow in stature. The inner man expands, and strong action becomes possible and lifts you into God’s Kingdom. The Kingdom of God is a spiritual actuality whose being and influence none can escape. It dwells around and in you, whether you have eyes to see it or not. True science must ever be to develop in man the eyesight to which this kingdom corresponds. It deals with fact and not with fiction. Its peoples dwell in the heights of Reality and appeal to man’s deepest sense of truth. To us earth is full of illusions and sense veils, which conceal the Mystery we

discern; and hence arises our anguish of desire to make known to man that which really IS.
