darkness in the soul. No matter how vile a person may be immediately Love
enters, the soul becomes bright and all is washed clean with the Divine Stream
that washes away all ignorance and sin for they have no power in themselves.

The Devil is said to be the father of evil, sin and death, and what I am
going to say about him is self-evident and cannot be denied.
Since God alone “is” then the Devil is not. Since God is alone “Being”
the Devil is “not being,” so we are met with the paradox that though the Bible

says so much about the Devil the Devil does not exist and it is primarily the
fact of non-existence that makes up the Devil.
It is that power which in appearance is, and in reality is not, in a word, it

is the power of the “non-existent.”
All our faith must be the recognition of that which exists and not that
which is non-existent. But because man’s thought conceives the non-existent

and gives it a substantial power off its own, this becomes a real power to the
person who believes in it. So we see that evil, Devil, death is a product of
man’s mind when man is ignorant of the truth of the Eternal Ever-present

Love that underlies all, and is ever expressing Itself through form.
It is the individual Life in form not seeing this, is the cause of all evil,
fear, sickness and belief in death. There is only one power, call it Love, for
it is Reality, that which organises atoms into form and that which maintains them

and is the central Life making and unmaking to make the greater and the better,
always unfolding and evolving, therefore God being all there is makes things
by becoming the things He makes. And as God is Love the central power

in everything must be Love.
Truth is the search for the Light of the World, First Cause, the only
Reality “Love” and when we have found this we have found everything for
where “Love” is, all that is contrary to Its nature is dissolved away.

Fear and hate is a thought power generated by the individual through
lack of understanding and has the temporary effect of interrupting the flow of
Life “Love” through the body affecting the entire body mentally and physically

through chemicalization. To overcome this condition you must apply the antidote,
Love, the only real power in the Universe.
Love is a power just as electricity is a power, each streams forth from its

own source and as the one electricity is the source of every light so is Love
the source of every living soul.
Love is the Life energy passing through the body. Love is the greatest

emotional power in the world, Love is the protective agency in every human
