higher law of obedience, although it may entail daily sacrifice. (This applies to the altar of the burnt offerings also.)
altar, to an unknown God--A yearning to know the unrevealed Spirit and a reaching out for a fuller realization of its source.
alternate between good and evil--To swing the mind from good to evil and vice versa, with consequent variation in the application of Truth principles. Alternation is fatal to realization. "For let not that man think that he shall receive anything of the Lord; a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways" (James 1:7,8).
ambition--A subtle mental force that drives men toward their goals. If it is dedicated wholly to Spirit and acts from Principle, it will work for good. If its motto is, "The end justifies the means," it is a menace.
ancestors--Forefathers. Those who think of themselves as descended from human ancestors are in bondage to all the limitations of those ancestors, regardless of their claims to the contrary. It is a falling short of the full stature of man to regard himself as descending from the human family. This is the sin that keeps the majority of men in bondage to sense consciousness.
angel--A messenger of God; the projection into consciousness of a spiritual idea direct from the Fountainhead, Jehovah. "And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar" (Luke 1:11). The word of Truth, in which is centered the power of God to overcome all limited beliefs and conditions.
angel, of Jehovah--The quickening thought of God appearing in the form of light or divine intelligence, intuition, and understanding.
angels, ascending and descending--The imaging power of the mind receiving divine ideas and reflecting them into the consciousness.
