“What I Believe”
By Ernest Holmes
“I believe in God, the Living Spirit Almighty; One, Indestructible, Absolute, and Self-Existent Cause. This One manifests itself in and through all creation. The manifest universe is the body of God; it is the logical and necessary outcome of the infinite self-knowingness of God. I believe in the incarnation of the Spirit in everyone and that all people are incarnations of the One Spirit. I believe in the eternality, the immortality, and the continuity of the individual soul, forever expanding. I believe that we are surrounded by a Creative Mind which receives the direct impress of our thought and acts upon it. I believe in the Eternal Goodness, the Eternal Loving-Kindness, and the Eternal Givingness of Life to all; for I understand that the life of all is God.”
Some powerful quotes, also from Ernest Holmes:
“You belong to the universe in which you live, you are one with the Creative Genius back of this vast array of ceaseless motion, this original flow of life. You are as much a part of it as the sun, the earth and the air. There is something in you telling you this—like a voice echoing from some mountain top of inward vision, like a light whose origin no man has seen, like an impulse welling up from an invisible source.”
“Your soul belongs to the universe. Your mind is an outlet through which the Creative Intelligence of the universe seeks fulfillment.”
“The intellect is a cold thing and a merely intellectual idea will never stimulate thought in the same manner that a spiritual idea does.”
“The road to freedom lies not through mysteries or occult performances, but through the intelligent use of natural forces and laws.”
“When prayer removes distrust and doubt and enters the field of mental certainty, it becomes faith; and the universe is built on faith.”
“Life is a mirror and will reflect back to the thinker what he thinks into it.”
