W.: Higher Thought Center, 10 Cheniston Gardens, W. THE CORRESPONDENCE SCHOOL I am sending the answers to Lesson 2nd. It has been a wonderful lesson to me. If I could but write it as I have felt it. The distinction between Jesus and Christ has opened up a new world to me. I see now how Christ is the Saviour of the world and have read the New Testament story with a new understanding. If there were to be no more lessons, these two which I have had, have changed my whole view of life. I am eager to learn more of the way of life. How many times I have asked, "What is God, and his Christ?" I feel I have had an answer. I understand better what is meant by holding the "Prosperity Thought." Life has always seemed hard and little prosperity coming to me. I see I have denied prosperity instead of affirming it. Your words have helped me to see the Truth, Oh, so much. I haven't paid much attention to the Class Thought in UNITY, but I feel now a great desire to be a member of the Silent Unity Society, and think the thoughts with all the other members. It will help me I am sure. Looking back to last February when a friend, knowing my troubled, unhappy state of mind and body, sent me a copy of UNITY, I see a wonderful change in myself. I think I have found the key to happiness and I am eager to learn more and be better fitted to help others.-K. M. F. I hereby return my first lesson. It has meant so much to me and has given me a much clearer understanding of God in all and through all. I enclose a love-offering.-B. W. I have learned a great deal through my first lesson. I have received new light, and am so glad I started with it. It is a great privilege to take such a course. I enclose a love-offering. -MRS. I.'D. a I return you my first lesson, which to me has the accent of Truth. I feel like a tired traveler, who at last has found spring of cool water. Am looking forward to the next lesson. -B. C. I have learned more of God in these lessons than I knew in a life-time, they are so beautiful, so grand. I bless the day that led my wandering steps to Unity. My prayers and best wishes are for you.-MRS. E. W. W. I am just longing to send a thank-offering for this first lesson. I felt the Truth of the lesson; it is all so plain and clearly put. As I copied it I felt a quickening of the Spirit, and a strong desire for more knowledge, and as the Truth dawned, I wanted to sing out, "Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me bless His Holy Name."-A. L. H. BENJAMIN FAY Mills at UNITY For three weeks, ending November 20th, we had daily address and lessons in Unity Auditorium by the above well known Evangelist and Truth student. His untiring energy and ability was evident in the great work which he did in our midst. His audiences always filled the Auditorium, and in the evenings there was often lack of seats. This alone evidence that he had a message that the people wanted. was He held, part of the time, three classes a day and his subjects covered a very great field of research into the deep matters of life. It is the unamimous opinion of our people that Mr. Mills has given the Truth a great impetus in this community and the fruits of his visit will be manifest for a long time to come. A large number of people have had introduced to them a line of thought which they were seeking but because of our quaint methods had not known was taught in this vicinity. We all deeply appreciate the work Mr. Mills has done in our midst and commend him to Truth Centers everywhere. He went from here to Lincoln, Neb., for a week; from there he goes to Omaha for three weeks. The New Thought is bringing to light the latent abilities of people everywhere. They send us their stories, poems and manuscripts for our opinion, and also for publication, but we can seldom use them because our magazine is not large enough, and we are so busy that we cannot intelligently estimate the value of these prolific productions. But there are bureaus that make a specialty of criticising and placing such works, and among them we know one that is competent to handle New Thought manuscripts. The address is The New York Literary Bureau, Thomas W. Hotchkiss, Manager, 699 Madison Avenue, New York City. I have been reading Charles Fillmore's book on Christian Healing, and find it the best I ever had the good fortune to read. It is so plain that one can't help but feel the life and strength in "the Word."-A. B. DEMONSTRATIONS We are always glad to publish evidences of the power of the Spirit, and shall thank our friends for sending in authenticated cases. We extend thanks to Mrs. Alice C. Weisz, 25 Pine street, New York City, who has taken the pains to write out and send the following experience of her friend, Mrs. E. B. Steele. We will not give names without consent, but in this instance, Mrs. Weisz says in her letter accompanying the testimonial, "These are the plain facts. If you think this might Mrs. Steele is in robust help some other afflicted one, use it. health today and is so happy and full of cheer that it does one good to be with her." “I had been an invalid for ten years. I kept about, suffering intensely most of the time with sciatic pains and rheumatism, and with my heart attacks I was in a pretty bad condition. My pulse would go down so rapidly you could not feel its beats. I found everything I tried to be of little use and so stopped the different medicines, except taking whisky when I could not hold myself together. For two weeks I had been so much worse I felt like giving up. Sunday evening I had the worst spell with my heart that I ever had. I retired early and stood the agony until one o'clock. Then I thought I could bear nothing more. While in this agony I heard a voice say as plainly as though someone were standing by my bedside, "You need not suffer, if you will ask God to help you. Ask with the faith of a little child. He will cure you. Only God can do this." I looked up to see from whence the voice came, it seemed to be so near me. 1 felt a soothing feeling going over me and I said, "I can ask, for the first time in my life, knowing I w be cured. Then I said, “Let me sleep and awaken well and I will never murmur or worry any more, come what will. Let me have good health and I can bear everything.” I fell asleep and a not waken until seven o'clock the next morning. I knew my husband wanted to arise early that morning and I called out, "Is it time to get up?" Not getting a reply, I hopped out of bed and went out and found him gone. I had not heard a sound. Then I realized I was cured and had anyone been peeping into the room ey would nave thought me cr zy by the way I danced and wirled about, testing my muscles, I was so glad I was cured. I immediately sent for the renovators and had our apart ment thoroughly done over, and in four days we were settled, and I did everything except shaking the rugs, and each day I felt stronger. I walked over a hundred and fifty blocks in one day, an unheard of thing for me, as three blocks would exhaust me.-Mrs. E. B. S. There are a great many people who read New Thought literature, and study lessons in Truth, without being able to demonstrate. I have a friend in the east with whom I correspond, and a few months back when I wrote to him I gave him a pretty strong letter along Practical Christianity. When he replied to my letter he said to me, "I don't go much on that, for I have read all the different magazines and books along that line, and I have tried it thoroughly but it won't work with me." The next time I wrote to him I gave him a very practical lesson, on how to enter into the Spirit of this teaching, and when he answered my next letter, he said, "Brother, you have given me the key, and I have got more good out of your letter than anything else I have ever read." Now the cause of his not being able to demonstrate was simply this, he had a wonderful intellectual knowledge of the Truth, but had failed to come into the Christ Consciousness of his real being. Unless one finds the true self within, he fails to demonstrate, and then blames the Truth. It matters not how well filled we may have the intellectual storehouse with Truth, if we do not come into the Christ Consciousness, there will be no realization. No one can find the Truth in books, nor can he learn the Truth from another, but each must find it within his own being. All that any one who knows and lives the Truth can do for another is to give them light on how to enter in; nothing more. Many will ask what is Truth, and what do you know more about it than I? My answer to these is, first, Truth is that which ever has been, is now, and ever will be, and it is within every human being. I know that it has given me freedom, for it has set me free from so called sin, sickness, disease, pain and poverty and even death. Mark 9:23, Jesus said "If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth." So in order to realize the All Good, we must serve God in Spirit and in Truth, and just love everybody, for love never faileth.— R. T. HENDRICKS. In a note accompanying the above the writer says: "I expect to soon enter the work of Practical Christianity in both healing and teaching in Santa Barbara, that is to open a Center there. I know the Unity forces will aid me with their |
