Sermon on the Mount

"Evolution is better than Revolution. New Thought Library's New Thought Archives encompass a full range of New Thought from Abrahamic to Vedic. New Thought literature reflects the ongoing evolution of human thought. New Thought's unique inclusion of science, art and philosophy presents a dramatic contrast with the magical thinking of decadent religions that promulgate supersticions standing in the way of progress to shared peace and prosperity." ~ Avalon de Rossett

Chapter 19 - Divine Persistency. Vs. 7, 8 - p. 104

DIVINE PERSISTENCY

7. Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.

8. For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

One of the most marked teachings of Jesus Christ is that the spiritual student must be divinely persistent in his demands upon the Spirit for his spiritual rights, the virtues and the gifts of the true Self.

The Master of Life here impresses upon the mind the omnipotence of persistency. "Men ought always to pray, and not to faint" (Luke xviii:!).

Jacob, when wrestling with God, would not take "no" for an answer. "I will not let thee go except thou bless me," he prayed, and then he was blessed, and a new name (character and power) was given him "Israel," signifying a man who could prevail with God.
