How shall we meet the demands this age is making on us?

“Mortals” are constituted of the false factors in the mentalities of human beings, while “immortals” are the true factor, the knowledge of truth, in the mentalities of men. All “immortals” are eternally safe, because they have part in the reflection of the one Mind, which is forever. All “mortals”, all false mentalities or beliefs of falsehood, are predestined to be destroyed.

“To successfully treat children, cut off the parent thought. Man is the offspring of God, not man. The material birth is but the false conception. Realize that matter cannot transmit good or evil.
