unto the earth, for my record is the record of the Holy Spirit. I say, as Job said, My witness is in the heavens and my record is on high.
I covenant for my joyous song of life, and will do nothing to be joyful; my joy is the joy of the Spirit.
I covenant with the Spirit for my demonstrations of efficiency and skill in rightly doing all things, and I will do nothing to perfect myself. My efficiency is the working skill of the Holy Spirit, according to the words of Jesus Christ, who said, "The words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself : but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works."
I covenant for my judgment in its beauty, and the beauty of judgment; and I will do nothing to make myself greatly good in judgment; for the Spirit is my judgment.
I covenant with the Holy Spirit for my love, and will do nothing to make myself loving or beloved, for all is the Holy Spirit now acting with irresistible goodness through me.
Notes on the Covenant
present is God. God is good. Thus all is good. Then there follows the necessary negation to such a promise, viz., then there is no evil. The intelligent acceptance of this reasoning has the most straightening and purifying effect upon character. The blind acceptance of this reasoning causes people to act exactly like Jehoiakim. Whatever appetite of passion or temper they had before they now say it is good because there is no evil. Now that one little turn of metaphysics contains all the law and the gospel. It makes all the difference between light and darkness. The one who says his conduct is good when it is manifestly bad is as much a believer in evil as he was before he spoke the words. For demonstration is the accompaniment of truth understood." --Bible Lesson 32
"Take now a right premise and reason with it until the light of understanding breaks over and through you. . . . Reasoning based on pure Principle is like sunlight to the mind and life." S.C.M.P.
