“THE TRUTH SHALL SET YOU FREE”*

Jesus showed what was Universal in God was individual in man and as

soon as we realize this the veil is lifted and the power shines from his instructions.
His words, “but anyone who drinks the water I shall give him will never
thirst anymore, the water I shall give him will turn into a Spring of Living
Water welling up to Eternal Life.” Yet he did not separate himself from mankind but

came to reveal man as the expression of the Father and to show himself as the
great example reaching the full individual expression.
You can never know Truth through an idea of Truth for Truth is not

an idea. An idea of Truth is but a standardization of thought which is limitation
and prevents the unfolding of the Self in Truth. You must not try to imagine what
Truth is. If you say it is one flame in many lamps and so forth these are but

words and you are no nearer the Truth.
You cannot imagine the inconceivable, so you must free your mind
from the ideas of what Truth is, for this only binds you, limits you, crippling

your thought and wasting your energy.
If your whole structure of thought is based upon an idea of what Truth is
you are only imitating and your imitation is emptiness but few see the misery of it.
It is only when you are conscious of your own bondages will you become

aware of Truth. But then do not try to find out what It is, only know that It
is, this will lead to freedom and the realization of the ecstasy of Life.
In this way you will become a supreme individual losing all sense of the

particular. Then you are like the wind that moves, no one knoweth where
it cometh or where it goeth. You are like the water that fits into every jar,
you are free to fit any situation. But if your mind is burdened with the past or
the future you will only find stagnation and frustration.

“The Word was in the beginning and that very Word was with God
and God was that Word. Everything came to be by His hand and without
Him not even one thing came to be of what was created. The Life was in Him

and the Life is the Light of Man, and the same Light shines in the darkness
and the darkness does not overcome it. He was the true Light which lighteth
every man who came into the world. He was in the world and the world

was under his hand yet the world knew him not. He came to his own and
his own did not receive him. But those who received him, to them he gave
power to become sons of God especially those who believed in His name.
