Included among the Biblical selections se-lections is the following: "Now when he (Jesus) came nigh to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And he came and touched the bier. And he said, young man, I say unto thee, Arise. And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak" (Luke 7: 12, 14, 15).

That statement is not confined to spiritual life, but includes in-cludes all the phenomena of existence. ex-istence. Jesus demonstrated this, healing the dying and raising th dead. Mortal mind must part with error, must put off itself with its deeds, and immortal manhood, the Christ ideal, will appear. Faith should enlarge its borders and strengthen its base by resting upon Spirit instead of matter" (p. 429).
