Salvation
Christ Jesus has delivered to us a religion which has revolutionized our lives, banished the gloom that over shadowed them, and filled them and flooded them with the sunshine of gladness and peace; a religion which has declared no hell; a religion whose heaven is not put off to another time, with a break and a gulf between, but begins here and now, and melts into eternity as fancies of the waking day melt into expansive dreams of enlightening sleep.
We believe it is a Christianity of healing that is revealed in the New Testament; that it has always been there for us. In the drift of ages it was lost through disuse and neglect, and that Jesus our way shower has given it back to men, turning the desolate night of life into the spiritually ascending light of day, its terrors into myths, its lamentations into awarenesses of emancipation and rejoicing.
There we have Christ Jesus as his followers see him... They sincerely believe that His prophetic wisdom is pure and perfect and beautiful, and his healing light of consciousness remains with us eternally and fills us with the joy of knowing we are not powerless victims of circumstance, but rather beloved children of God, without stain or blot or blemish.
