                           “Know ye not that I am in the Father and the Father is in me.” We
                    live, move and have our being in the Father and the Father is Living, moving
                    and has His being in us. This is the faith that the Master truly meant. Any other

                    faith is void and has no substance.
                           Paul the Apostle says, “faith is the substance of things hoped for the
                    evidence of things not seen.” Paul saw that faith is the actual substance of the
                    thing itself that is hoped for. Faith is the “evidence” of the things that are not yet

                    visible to the eye.
                           Real faith is our personal contact with the Father, it is warm and close.
                    The feeling that Isaiah had when he wrote Isaiah 43.1-2: “But now, the Eternal

                    promises, he who created you, O Jacob, he who made you, O Israel, ‘fear not,
                    for I redeem you, I claim you, you are mine. I will be with you when you pass
                    through waters, no rivers shall overflow you; when you pass through fire, you

                    shall not be scorched, no flames shall burn you.’”
                           Write in golden letters of fire in your mind and heart, “God is Love.
                    I am Love.” Let this sink deep into your soul and you will know that God is not

                    relative and distant from you but is Ever-present within you. This is our personal
                    contact with the Father, this is our faith and nothing less is of any value.
                           Knowledge of the Law is of great benefit to us for by it we create, but
                    what I want to point out to you very strongly is, that knowledge or Law is not

                    creative power.
                           As children of the Father the only One Living God is our parent who
                    loves us, and by Loving Him and all His children we strengthen our Creative

                    Power in the knowledge that He is in each and everyone of us, “as much as
                    you do unto one of these so ye do unto me.” “When you have seen me you
                    have seen the Father.”
                           The chief of all commandments Jesus said is, “hear O Israel, the Lord

                    thy God is ‘one’ Lord and you must love Him with your whole heart, with
                    your whole soul with your whole mind and with your whole strength,” and
                    the second is, “you must love your neighbour as yourself, there is no other

                    commandment greater than these!”
                           The external consciousness of man is ever ready to fall into the error of
                    worshipping something that it can see, so man in his ignorance puts his

                    faith in images and idols which have no power at all. Only the spiritually
                    enlightened consciousness with a deep understanding can worship Reality
                    in the abstract which is not seen, yet is that out of which all things come.
