seeming error; it is not born of God, and all that is real
is of God. Break away the false ideas that obscure the
angel and watch the result.
"The worst way to improve the world is to condemn
it. Men might be better if we better desire of them."
"Man is the image and glory of God." -- I Cor. 11:7.
"Men, which are made after the similitude of God." -- James 3:9.
It is certain that man in his spiritual nature is Godlike, and when we see or understand but One Source, One
Life, One Mind, and One Substance -- Spirit -- we shall
know that man's true and only nature is Spiritual. "God
hath made man upright, but they have sought out many inventions.'' -- Ecc. 7:29. Man has invented many false
ideas about himself, and these false claims have gathered
so densely about him, as to cover his "eyes" with a
thick "cloud"; so that the inner glory of God is not
recognized.
This "cloud" or veil, is "done away" when we see
Christ, the Holy One of God as "All in all." We "die"
to the old idea of self which was false, and become alive
to the Divine idea, the Eternal, -- though "new" to us.
Paul beseeches us to put on this new idea of man
when he says:
"That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man" (do not any longer talk about the man of sin;
the man of God never sins), which is corrupt according to
the deceitful lusts. And be renewed in the spirit of your
minds. And that ye put on the new man (the new idea of
man) which after God, is created in righteousness and true
holiness. -- Eph. 4:22-24.
The Bible gives full encouragement to look at God's
perfect work, and to put away the old idea of unrightiousness.
