that we do not call this perfection into objective manifestation. It is not a matter of choice that we are potentially perfect. It is not a matter of conjecture. If we wish, we might say it is the gift of God. As Jesus said, "Fear not, little flock, it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the Kingdom." Thus you see, goodness is already given. We may have misinterpreted it; we may have used our very freedom to bind ourselves. In fact, I think we do that very thing and the intelligence which we use in the wrong way (which wrong makes us unhappy) is the only thing that can make us unhappy. Someone might argue that faith and fear are entirely different attitudes. Really fear is nothing more than misplaced faith -- faith in a power opposed to good. I believe it is all one, and every experience we have is as real as it is supposed to be. It is not necessary to deny objective reality -- not necessary to deny that we suffer or that we are unhappy -- in order to understand subjective or self-conscious Reality, and no great thinker has ever done so. Goodness is already given, the Divine Gift is made, the Divine Impartation is made, and as we awake to the realization of it, it is ours. That is what demonstration is.
